Some things you want to remember but you forget, some things you don't want to remember and you never forget.
Ajax pov
While most of us are in lounge, some of the Hunters are out doing business, but it doesn't hold anybody back from doing what they dream of most; sleeping. Last time I checked, near enough everybody in the house is still sound asleep, or drunk still, its 8am.
But our mansion and gates does not stop unwelcomed people arrive at our doorstep, Eli needs to check up on the security or im going to kick his ass all the way to England, and while I'm deep in thought the doorbell sounds throughout the entire house, and that's when I make my way over to the door and get the overwhelming amount of hatred for the person standing at the door.
"Ah, Coby, it's nice to see you again, although I do have to admit I did want my precious flower to answer the door instead" my blood boils and there is a possibility that he sees this, but makes no comment on it.
"What the fuck do you want?" I growl at him, and he laughs manically while holding most of his weight on the thin red wooden stick that he now has to waltz around with since he was in a terrible accident a couple of years back that resulted in many wounded in Mantian, and the leader himself was seriously injured because of the three bullet wounds I served him for lunch. "Well if you must know, Ajax I came to speak to Dahlia, she might have mentioned it but we have some" he pauses and then smirks, "Lets say unfinished business" I can't help but go to punch him in the face, but this man taught me that skill, and he knows how to dodge and disarm, and well in this case I nearly did lose my arm.
"Now now boy" he spits out, "Didn't anyone teach you manners, like not to disrespect your elders?" I laugh at his response, "Some asshole tried to, but the only people I do respect are living in my house, and you are definitely not one of them, old man" I roll my eyes at the old cretin standing just outside my doorway, and I feel the gun in my back pocket become more prominent.
Alerted by his sudden question, Ash runs down the stairway and yells right at him, not knowing who he is or what he is capable of. "The fuck are you doing on our property" she growls, and he does the unspeakable and smirks at her, his eyes pry all the way over her body.
Wrong move man. 
Ashley doesn't think when she walks closer to him, and slaps him, "You do that again and I shove your microdick down your throat" he does back down however, and he clears his throat, "I'm Patrick, its a pleasure to meet such a" he pauses, "beautiful young woman"  
She rolls her eyes back at him, and she massages her temples with her fingertips, "God I'm thankful to love women"
Patrick decides to ignore Ashley, and skips right to why he is here.   
"I came to collect what I own, I wonder if she is here for me" I grow angrier at his choice of words, there are over 171,476 words in the English dictionary,  pick some ones that don't involve that kind of behaviour.
I feel a presence next to me, and immediately know who it is...and so does Patrick, who smiles at Dahlias attendance.
She doesn't even get to say anything before Patrick invades the conversation again, "ah, my ladybird, its nice to see you again" she blades at him, "It hasn't been that long, maybe use the one braincell you actually have and realise that"
He laughs at her, and by now has gained everyone elses attention as well, who come behind us to defend us if need be.
"You can't be here, we will call the police" Jay says, and I see everyone turn their heads to him and give him a look as if to say "the fuck?"
"You, call the police, see where that gets you, probably a jail cell" Patrick says, "Oh paddy, you'd be there too" Eli says in his stupidly British accent, "ah Ha, that's where you might be wrong, boy, the difference between us is that I do not get caught" he looks back at Ash who has now took up the free space next to Dahlia, her protective side showing dramatically.
 
Patrick makes a small move towards Dahlia, but in less than a millisecond Ash grabs it and yanks his finger out of place.
The wrong move, but something I would have done if she didn't beat me to it.
"That was surely, a bad mistake, young one" he yells, putting his finger back how it was before she disclocated it.
  
Without hesitation she strikes back, "you can't do anything to me" and without thought, I know what's next, but no matter how hard I try, I will not be able to stop what's coming. Ashley made the wrong decision.
I only have time to glare at her before Patrick makes a move, and it isn't a very good one. I can see Dahlia move backwards to try and escape what's coming, but Patrick can see right through her and grabs the fabric on her hoodie, making her fall into his arms, yuck.  
"Now, this can go two ways, she can come with me and you won't get hurt, or you try and save her only to get hurt, either way I'm fine with'
I know exactly what the others are thinking. I'm thinking the same thing, they messed with the wrong girl.
After all, he picked the wrong person to grab and try and blackmail us with, she has been waiting years to get back at him and now she has him right where she wants him. He is the perfect target.
We step back into the doorway, and Patrick laughs at us, thinking that we are giving up on her, which we are not. We just know better than to doubt someone.
After Patrick moves to grab her again, she makes the perfect move and kicks him in the nuts, and then punching him right in the groan as he falls onto his knees.
Alec surprisingly, pulls her back gently from the attack and pushes her behind his back. As if protecting her from Patrick, I've never seen him like this with anyone else before, but it does prove that he has some sort of heart.
"I'll come back here, and I will take what's mine" Patrick shouts angrily at us, and I practically see everyone roll their eyes, then he turns and leaves, once more, alone.
Dahlia then taps me on the shoulder, holding a small piece of paper which reads "46A 73HR"
If you can't tell, I'm confused.
Dahlia smirks at me while shaking her head, "its the number plate of his car dumbass" I smirk at her, "Well thank you, Jas, get right on it and get Chase, he should be back from his trip from Jacksonville by now" over these past couple of days with the drama surrounding Armstrong, I haven't really checked in with Chase, but he went on a small business trip because one of our assailants needed him there.
When the door is closed and everybody gets settled in, Alec closes in on Dahlia and engulfs her in a hug, which at first you can tell she is tense, and I don't actually think I have seen Dahlia or Alec hug somebody in years, "now, are you alright?" Dahlia sighs and takes a minute to think, "I'm fine, just a bit shaken up, I don't like it when he touches me, don't worry about it though" you can see where Alec's brain starts to think, and that's when he pulls her into another hug and whispers something in her ear"
"hey we can tell you're tired, love, you need to get some sleep" Eli says as he starts to open the beer that he pulled from the fridge, I can see Dahlia roll her eyes but she nods, and that's when Alec beats me to speaking up, "You want me to stay with you?" in which she looks up at him and nods again.
Alec pov
I feel like when I'm around her everything just goes away and makes everything so much better, with her it feels like I am a better person, even without realising it. I want to protect her, with all I have, and that's what I intend to do, until my last breath. I carry her up the stairs into my room, where she yawns and I giggle slightly, "Get some sleep, and if you need me ill be here" "thank.. you" she says groggily, fighting sleep, "shush" i pause and then add, "its alright, just go to sleep" Then a few minutes later, I feel myself drifting off to sleep as well.
