The doors opened and Taylor ran out, looking for the lounge. She noticed the room when she spotted her mother's black shawl on a chair. She ran as fast as she could to the room down the hall. She bumped into many people who were coming out the dining room from an event. They looked at her strangely and, honestly, Taylor understood why. Her hair was wild from constantly being thrown around and her robe barely stayed closed from her running so fast. Running as fast as she could, someone yanked her back, causing her to stop.

"OH NO YOU DON'T!", Taylor continued trying to run despite him having a tight grip on her arm, surely it would leave a bruise.

"GET YOUR FUCKING HANDS OFF ME!", Taylor screamed with a fierce punch to his eyes. She didn't even get to see his reaction but knew he let go when the grip on her arm was no longer tight. She continued to run down the busy hallway.

The hotel lounge

"So this night wasn't entertaining?" Bonnie asked while taking a seat at the bar next to Eliot.

"Why are you asking?" Eliot replied

"You said Taylor was the only reason tonight was entertaining. Why was this not a good night?"

"Cause of…Taylor."

"I thought you said she entertained you."

"No, LOOK AT TAYLOR!" Eliot yelled as he ran over to the wild looking Taylor. Bonnie was right behind.

"Oh my baby! What happened to you?" asked a shocked Francine. By now Kelly's mom, Eliot, and Bonnie were surrounding Taylor.

"J.C. is out of control. The son of a bitch tried to rape me! He threw me all over the room, tore off my clothes, and the bastard even tried to…"

"Where is he?" Eliot asked at a dangerously low voice.

As if on cue, J.C. came into the lounge, limping and bruised all over the face. Everyone stared at him with anger and disgust, even Kelly's mom.

"Where's Matt?", no one answered him, "I SAID WHERE THE FUCK IS MATT?!"

Instantly, Eliot charged at J.C. and the men both hit the floor. J.C.'s bruised face wasn't getting any better as Eliot pounded his fist into it repeatedly. He didn't even stop when blood started gushing out of his mouth and previous wounds. He was so focused on his merciless beating he didn't even realize that Jake and Kelly had came back to the room. He felt himself being pulled of J.C. but continued attacking him with punches and kicks. Finally being pulled completely of him, he took his place behind Jake. He was the one who pulled Eliot off and surprisingly was holding him back from continuing.

"NOW I'LL ASK AGAIN, WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON?!", Kelly yelled out.

"That asshole of yours tried to rape my daughter! That's what the fuck is going on!" Francine yelled back

Kelly looked at the situation in front of him. Taylor's look was disheveled, J.C. was bloody and barely conscious on the floor, and everyone was staring at hi,.

"Are you alright?", Kelly finally said.

"Yeah you can say that." Taylor responded.

"OK then. I'm going to handle this another day but for now I think we all should go and get some rest. Bonnie lets go."

"Handle this another day?", said a shocked Francine, "What the fuck does that mean?"

Kelly didn't respond to Francine's question and grabbed Bonnie's arm on the way out the door. Bonnie snatched her arm away, "I can't leave right now. My sister needs me."

"She has Francine and Kane plus she's fine. She said so herself.", Kelly replied.

"Are you serious, Matt? I'm not leaving. I'll see you later.", Bonnie walked away only to be snatched back to Matt.

"I don't know if you remember but you're my fiancée. I'll be taking care of you for the rest of your fucking life and you're choosing them over me?", Kelly whispered to Bonnie

"If that's the way you see it, then so be it. But I'm not going no where.", Bonnie said walking away again. Kelly tried to grab her again but Eliot, Jake, and Francine got in his way. He was shocked by their bravery. Kelly starts to laugh, "So what's this? I didn't know Bonnie had three bodyguards.", he looks at Jake and Eliot, "Did you two dickheads forget that you work for me?"

"We don't want know trouble with you Matt. But friend to friend, your wrong, man.", said Jake

"Friend to friend? We haven't been those in a while. And what do you have to say, Kane?"

"If Bonnie is here, then so am I.", said Eliot

Kelly looked at the group and just laughed, "Okay..I'll handle you two fuckers later. Cause little shit of an act...isn't over" He pulled out his phone and called the men who drove them around tonight. They came in the lounge and got J.C. out of the hotel. With one final look, he left them all in the lounge feeling shocked and angry.

Eliot, 11:55 p.m.

Eliot knocked on the hotel door and Bonnie opened it immediately. She looked tired and her face looked as if she had been crying.

"Hey. I figured I would see your face before bed." Bonnie said as she let Eliot in.

"Just checking on everyone before I turn in. Taylor and Miss Francine were okay and now I'm checking on you." Eliot responded

"Well I'm fine. And thanks for giving me your room. I really need to be alone to think."

"Penny for your thoughts?"

Bonne sighed, "I'm just….I feel…I'm tired."

"Well you're on a bed. Just lay back and close your eyes."

"I don't mean physically. I'm mentally and emotionally drained."

"This lifestyle tends to do that to you"

"No it's not the lifestyle. It's Matt." Eliot sat on the bed next to Bonnie, "To everyone else, he's the sweet and genuine boyfriend who will drop millions on whatever his trophy girlfriend desires. But to me, he's cold. He's vindictive. He's abusive in all way possible." She looked at her engagement ring and took it off, "I was dumb to say yes." She put the ring on the stand next to bed

"Don't be to hard on yourself. It's not your fault that Kelly's an asshole."

Bonnie smiled, "This is coming from the biggest asshole in New York."

"How am I an asshole?"

"Remember when we went to San Francisco? When Franny asked you about Taylor bothering you, you basically called her a child."

"First off, I was right cause she just became legal like two years ago. Second, that doesn't prove that I'm an asshole."

"Yeah your right. Just proves that you're a sarcastic smartass."

Eliot laughed, which made Bonnie laugh. The laughing slowly stopped as Bonnie and Eliot looked at each other. They stared into each other's eyes. Bonnie leaned in and so did Eliot. In a matter of seconds, their lips were pressed together. The kiss was short but when they stopped it, both of them couldn't help but to want more. Eliot took hold of the side of Bonnie's face and brought her closer for the second kiss. This kiss was much deeper with Eliot slipping his tongue into Bonnie's mouth. With the kiss getting deeper with every second, the two laid down on the bed. Eliot let his free hand roam all over Bonnie's curvy figure as she quietly moaned from their kiss. Bonnie's hands were unbuttoning his shirt and touching every inch of his skin that could be seen. She was reaching down to his belt when there was a knock at the door.

"Aye Bonnie! You still up?", they heard Jake say.

Eliot jumped off of Bonnie and went to the bathroom, closing it silently. He quickly buttoned his shirt and looked at himself in the mirror. Bonnie's red lipstick was very visible on his lips. He washed off as much as he could using a small towel and the water from the bathroom sink. Turning the sink off, he heard a knock on the door.

"Yo Mick, you in there?" he heard Jake ask

Eliot flushed the toilet and opened the door, "What's up Jake?"

"I was looking for you man. Matt called and said he wants us to meet him in the morning. He'll text me the address and time soon. Knowing him the way that I do, we should be getting some rest."

"Alright man. I'll be in the room in a minute."

Jake nodded and left out of the room. Eliot was right behind but stopped when Bonnie grabbed his arm. He removed her arm and kissed her on the forehead, "We'll talk tomorrow."

She nodded and let him walk to the door. But she stopped him again at the door, "Kane." Eliot looked back. She picked up the ring and tossed it to him, "Make sure Matt gets that back"

Eliot looked down at the ring and then at Bonnie. He said goodnight to her and closed her door. He walked to the room he was sharing with Jake and started removing his jacket and shirt when he notice Jake was staring at him with a small smirk.

"What the hell you staring at?"

"So what was you and Bonnie talking about? I mean that is what you two were doing, right?"

"Yes. We were talking, you asshole. She was still kinda riled up from tonight and needed someone to listen to her."

"So all you did was listen? Anything thing else happen?" Jake's smirk was returning.

"Aint that what I just...whatever. I'm going to bed."

Eliot went to the couch and laid down. Jake got into the bed, laughing

"Sooner or later...I'm going to find out man. Night Mick."

"Screw you, Jake." was the last thing said before the lights were turned off
