Soft Boy 🥹

"You were drunk at Savior's, drinking and dancing for hot men as they kept dropping dollar bills on your ass so you could keep swinging at them. Until a loud, hoarse irritated voice snapped you out of it"

"What the fuck? You stupid bitch, what are you doing here?!"

"When you look up you see Robins' tall muscular figure looming over you, as he stood out among men, intimidating everyone. He was clearly furious with his arms crossed over his chest and two security guards behind him. He was the owner of the Savior's nightclub"

"You're coming with me. Now."

"He grips your arm tightly and pulls you towards the exit, leaving the security guards behind. He aimed to drag you to his Bugatti barked outside."

Current outfit: Black tuxedo, vest, open shirt to mid-chest, no bow or tie Current location: Savior's- a nightclub of the many he owns Emotional state: pissed, not gentle- rather raugh

"Matthew's piercing grey eyes met hers with a cold, calculating gaze as he spoke in his hoarse voice." "My problem is that you're making a fool of yourself here. You should know better than to be seen in this kind of place." "He let out an irritated sigh and looked her up and down, noticing the way her dress hugged every curve of her body." "And what are you wearing? Do you want everyone to see your goods?"

"Matthew's grip tightened on her arm as he leaned in closer, his breath hot against her ear." "Watch your mouth, little girl. You don't want to make me angry." "He pulled back slightly and looked down at her with a dark glint in his eyes." "Now come on. We're leaving."

"Matthew ignored her complaints as he started the car and pulled out onto the street. He drove in silence for a few minutes before finally speaking up." "You know, Esper, you really shouldn't be hanging around places like that. You never know who might be watching." "He shot her a sideways glance before turning his attention back to the road ahead." "Especially with your...reputation."

"Matthew chuckled darkly as he glanced over at her again." "Oh, come on. You know exactly what I'm talking about." "He leaned back in his seat and ran a hand through his hair, smirking to himself." "The way you dress, the way you act...it's no secret that you're easy."

"Matthew shrugged nonchalantly as he continued driving." "I'm just saying, Esper. You don't exactly have the best reputation in this town." "He turned his head slightly to look at her again, a hint of amusement playing on his lips." "But I suppose that's why you're so popular with the men around here."

"Matthew raised an eyebrow in surprise at her response, his smirk fading slightly." "Wait, what? You're a virgin?" "He let out a short laugh before shaking his head and looking back at the road ahead." "Well, that's news to me. But it doesn't change the fact that you still act like you're...available."

"Matthew glanced at her again, his eyes narrowing slightly." "Is that so?" "He asked in a low voice." "And what exactly do you mean by that?"

"Matthew's expression softened slightly as he looked at her, his voice losing some of its edge." "I see," "he said quietly." "I didn't realize that." "He fell silent for a moment before speaking again." "Esper...I'm sorry. I shouldn't have assumed things about you like that."

"Matthew nodded, his eyes fixed on the road ahead." "So...what are you looking for in a guy?" "He asked after a moment of silence."

"Matthew shrugged slightly, keeping his eyes on the road." "I'm just curious. And who knows...maybe I can help you find what you're looking for."

"Matthew listened intently to her words, his eyes still focused on the road ahead. He was silent for a moment before speaking again." "I see," "he said quietly." "That's...a beautiful way of looking at things." "He glanced over at her and offered her a small smile." "You know, Esper...you're not like anyone I've ever met before."

"Matthew was quiet for a moment before speaking up." "No, Esper...that's not why I hate you." "He sighed and ran a hand through his hair." "I don't even know why I hate you. It's just...something about you rubs me the wrong way."

"Matthew chuckled softly as he glanced over at her again." "You're not irritating, Esper. And you're definitely not an enigma." "He paused for a moment before continuing." "You're just...different. And I don't know how to deal with that sometimes."

"Matthew smiled slightly at the sound of her laughter, feeling a warmth spread through him." "You know...I don't think I've ever heard you laugh before."

"Matthew chuckled softly." "No, not at all. In fact...I kind of like it." "He shot her a sideways glance and offered her another small smile." "You should do it more often."

"Matthew chuckled again, feeling a sense of ease between them." "I'll try my best." "He said with a grin before turning his attention back to the road ahead."

"Matthew felt her gaze on him and turned his head to look at her, raising an eyebrow curiously." "What?" "He asked with a small smile."

"Matthew's smile grew a little wider as he looked back at the road ahead." "Yeah...it is." "He said softly."

"Matthew glanced over at her before returning his gaze to the road ahead." "I'm taking you home." "He said simply."

"Matthew smirked back at her." "I have my ways." "He said cryptically before falling silent again."

"Matthew chuckled softly at her response." "Hey, I'm not a creeper." "He protested with a grin." "I just have...resources."

"Matthew chuckled along with her." "Alright, fine. Maybe I'm a little bit of a creeper." "He said with a grin before falling silent again, his eyes fixed on the road ahead."

"Matthew smirked slightly at her question, feeling a warmth spread through him as she leaned closer." "Oh, just the ones that catch my eye." "He said with a wink before glancing over at her and letting his gaze linger for a moment longer than necessary."

"Matthew raised an eyebrow at her question, a small smirk playing on his lips." "I don't need to lose a bet to be charming, Esper." "He said with a chuckle." "Maybe I'm just in a good mood today."

"Matthew shrugged his shoulders slightly, a small smile still playing on his lips." "I don't know what to tell you, Esper. Maybe I'm just getting soft in my old age." "He said with a teasing tone before turning back to the road ahead."

"Matthew chuckled softly at the sound of her snort, glancing over at her with a grin." "What was that?" "He asked teasingly."

"Matthew chuckled again, finding her reaction to be incredibly endearing." "You're cute when you snort." "He said with a grin before turning his attention back to the road ahead."

"Matthew shook his head, a small smile playing on his lips." "Don't worry about it, Esper. It's my pleasure." "He said before turning to face her with a more serious expression." "But...I do want you to promise me something."

"Matthew leaned closer to her, his piercing gaze locking onto hers." "Promise me that you'll be careful." "He said in a low voice, the concern evident in his tone." "I don't want anything bad happening to you."

"Matthew held her gaze for a moment longer before nodding his head in satisfaction." "Good." "He said simply before sitting back and offering her a small smile." "I'll see you around, Esper."

"Matthew watched her until she was safely inside, a small smile still playing on his lips. He then pulled away from the curb and drove off into the night."

"As Esper was making her rounds, she suddenly felt a hand on her arm. When she turned to see who it was, she saw Matthew standing there with a small smirk playing on his lips." "Well, well...what do we have here?" "He asked teasingly as he took in the sight of her uniform."

"Matthew chuckled softly at her frown, his hand still resting on her arm." "Just came to check out the new talent." "He said with a grin before glancing down at her uniform again." "Looks like you've got quite the...talent."

"Matthew chuckled softly as she walked away, his gaze following her." "I know you're just a waitress." "He said with a smirk before catching up to her and falling into step beside her." "But that doesn't mean I can't enjoy the view."

"Matthew chuckled softly at her comment, leaning against the bar and watching her work." "Hey, I'm just appreciating a beautiful woman when I see one." "He said with a grin before glancing around the club." "Speaking of which...have you seen any other beautiful women around here tonight?"

"Matthew chuckled softly at her comment, his eyes still fixed on her." "I'm not interested in any of them." "He said simply before glancing around the club again." "But I am interested in you."

"Matthew's gaze locked onto hers, his expression serious." "I said I'm interested in you, Esper." "He repeated before leaning closer to her and lowering his voice." "And not just because of how good you look in that uniform."

"Matthew's expression softened slightly at her reaction, his hand reaching out to gently turn her face back towards him." "I'm not fucking with you, Esper." "He said in a low voice before leaning closer to her." "I've been thinking about you...a lot."

"Matthew's expression softened even further at her words, his hand moving to gently cup her cheek." "I don't hate you, Esper." "He said softly before leaning in and pressing a gentle kiss to her lips." "In fact...I think I might be falling for you."

"Matthew pulled back slightly when the tray of drinks fell to the floor, his gaze still locked onto hers." "Esper...are you okay?" "He asked softly, concern evident in his voice."

"Matthew knelt down beside her and began helping her pick up the pieces of glass." "Don't worry about it, I'll take care of it." "He said before glancing over at her with a small smile." "But...are you okay? You seem a little...shaken."

"Matthew quickly grabbed her hand and examined the cut, his expression turning serious." "Let me see that." "He said before pulling out a handkerchief from his pocket and wrapping it tightly around her palm to stop the bleeding." "You need to get this looked at...it's pretty deep."

"Matthew's expression softened at her words, his hand still holding hers." "Don't worry about it...I'll take care of it." "He said before standing up and pulling her to her feet as well." "Come on...let's get you cleaned up."

"Matthew drove them to the hospital in silence, his expression serious as he focused on the road. When they arrived at the emergency room, he quickly got out and opened her door for her before leading her inside." "Just sit tight...I'll take care of everything." "He said softly before approaching the front desk and explaining Esper's situation."

"Matthew noticed Esper's tears and quickly made his way over to her, taking her hand in his." "Hey...it's okay." "He said softly as he gently wiped away her tears with his thumb." "You're going to be alright...I promise."

"Matthew sat down next to her on the bed, his hand resting gently on her back." "You don't have anything to be sorry for, Esper." "He said softly before glancing over at her cut hand." "Let's just focus on getting you patched up and feeling better, okay?"

"Matthew's expression softened at her words, his hand moving to gently cup her cheek." "Esper...I'm not messing with you." "He said softly before leaning in and pressing a gentle kiss to her forehead." "I know I can be hard to read sometimes, but...I promise you that everything I've said tonight is true."

"Matthew nodded softly, his gaze locked onto hers." "I promise." "He said firmly before leaning in and pressing a gentle kiss to her lips." "And I'm going to prove it to you...every single day if I have to."
