NHL IMAGINES

ANDREI SVECHNIKOV

You're not so loving boyfriend dragged you through the restaurant, as the hostess brought you to your table. He shoved you into the booth and sat beside you, blocking you in. You felt so embarrassed to be there. It was a full restaurant and your boyfriend was just being his nasty self.

There was a large table of guys next to you. You looked up at the one at the end. He was already looking at you. He gave you a small smile, you didn't return it and just looked down before you boyfriend would see.

The waitress came by and took your order. Just like every other time you weren't allow to order yourself. Your boyfriend ordered for you and picked out what you were going to eat. He usually picked something small that wouldn't fill you up. He always said he didn't want you
getting fat.

You sat there with a water as he chugged down his beer.

"I have to go take a leak. Don't fucking move" He tells you through gritted teeth and he gripped your wrist hard

You swallowed hard as you felt a tear slip down your cheek. You looked over at the guy again and quickly wiped it away. He's emotion became worried. You didn't notice but he got up and walked over to you. He sat across from you in the booth.

"Hey are you okay?" He asked trying to get you to look at him

You looked down at your hands and didn't answer.

"I saw how he touches you and talks to you. It's not right. I'm Andrei by the way, if you need help I can do that for you" He says

This time you look up at him. "I'm okay but thank you" You lie to him

Andrei goes to open his mouth but you stop him "He's coming back you should go back to your table, please" You tell him practically begging him before something happened.

Andrei saw how scared you were in your eyes, so he listens and goes back to his seat. You boyfriend appears just as the food was arriving. You two eat in silence. You pick at your plate, not really wanting what was on it. Every so often you would look up at Andrei and just admire him. It takes a lot to do what he did and you appreciated it.

"You should eat your food or else that's a waste of money, my money" He tells you

You frown "I'm just not hungry right now, I'm sorry. I'll get it packed up and eat it later" You say 

"No. You're going to eat it now. You're not eating later" He says getting angry

You could sense Andrei looking at you as you forced yourself to eat. He couldn't take it anymore. He couldn't just watch.  He gets up and walks over to your table.

"Don't force yourself to eat that. Heck I wouldn't even eat it" He says as he approaches the table

You don't say anything. You just look up at him.

"Who the fuck are you and why are you telling my girlfriend what to do?" You boyfriend says

Andrei scoffs "I'm none of your business and I'm not telling her what do to. I'm saying she doesn't have to eat if she doesn't want to." He says

Your boyfriend slides out of the booth and tries to intimidate Andrei. You cracked a smile as your 5'8" boyfriend had to look up at Andrei, who you guessed was over six feet.

"And who are you to say that? Go back to your table buddy." You boyfriend tells Andrei

Andrei doesn't say anything, he pushes past your boyfriend no problem. He sits down in the booth next to you and smiles. He wraps an arm around you. "We' ll get him out of here for you" He tells you quietly and you give him a little nod.
