Youâre in a pub one day, a place you donât normally go to. Nothing special, just out for meal and a drink. A change.
Youâre not entirely sure what happens but next but a bunch of rowdy, already slightly drunken men walk in and suddenly Adrian wants to go. You raise an eyebrow, but donât question it, leave some money on the table and stand to leave.
Thereâs certain things that are easy to pick up on, like when a person becomes tenser, especially a person like Adrian. You frown but donât push it, muttering a quiet âare you okay?â as you head to the door.
Before you reach the door you hear someone call out Adrianâs name, and notice him quickly pause before hurrying his step. They donât continue to stop calling things out and you can see him getting more worried. You donât know who these people are, or what happened in the past, but it obviously wasnât good.
You turn to yell something back at them but you feel your arm being pulled and you look back to see Adrian, the look in his eyes that read âplease, donât.â So you sigh and turn around, carry on your way.
Until one final comment pushes you over the edge, you turn around and put a fist to the guys jaw. Itâs quickly returned with a punch to the nose and you throw another.
It ends in you all being barred for life.
When you get home he cleans up your bloody face. He doesnât say anything at first, until he gently takes your face in his hands.
âYou didnât have to do that, they could have hurt you.â He frowns. You donât care, though. They can do their worst on you, as long as they leave Adrian alone. Itâs him you care about.
You shrug and offer him a toothy grin, even though it stings a little. He sighs, rolls his eyes and kisses you.Â
âYou need to stop making such reckless choices, though, itâll get you really hurt one day.â He looks sad for a minute, before saying quietly, âThank you, though.â
âAny time.â You pull him in for another kiss.Â
