Alexander's P.o.V

When your heart breaks, you try to fix it back. You use bandages and medicines as it bleeds more and more. If you stop the bleeding, you are a lucky son of a bitch. Not everyone can stop it. I see the blood, i try to stop it and my salty tears fall on the wound and make everything worse.

I titled my head confused, why people cheat on their partners? Does this fill them with satisfaction, telling lies and hiding their evil face behind a happy mask? I was caring and loving and doing the best i could to get cheated on in the end.

Jason's eyes were full of empathy, he grabbed my wrist wanting me to stand up but i declined. I wasn't really in the mood to get out or even talk.

"Alex i know that that break up was harsh but you can't stay here for the rest of your life."

Jason was right for once in his life as i stood up facing the window. He walked downstairs, i gulped looking through my clothes. I grabbed a pair of blue jeans and a gray T-shirt in rush. I dressed up and looked myself at the mirror seeing my pathetic little self.

Jason drove us somewhere, i was left anxious when i realized it was a strip club. I had never been in one before in my life and i didn't want to go. He parked the car and looked at me "asking for permission".

"I don't know.."

"C'mon. It's an one-time life experience."

"Have you ever been in one?"

He turned red and brought his palm to his cheek. Oh he has been, i can't believe it.

"Yeah, i know the owner and i have a free pass.. BUT.. But before you start, i have been only two or three times, grabbed a few drinks, received a lap dance and just that!"

He moved his arm as i mumbled a "I hate you" and got out. Jason followed me as i faced a bodyguard outside the entrance.

"Man, what are they feeding you!?"

He growled as my eyes widened. Jason luckily raised his arm in front of me sighing.

"Hallo Mason, er ist mit mir."

"Sag deinem Freund, er ist ein Arschloch. Es ist schon eine ganze Weile, seit du hierher gekommen bist."

"Ich kenne."

"Komm herein."

He moved away as i raised my eyebrow.

"What did he say?"

"It doesn't matter."

Jason walked in as i followed him like a hurt puppy.

Colorful lights and cigarette smoke everywhere. I coughed, i couldn't really stand it. The music loud making my heart bump louder. Ladies on poles taking their clothes one by one off around as i gulped playing with my fingers. A lady walked towards us, she was young probably in her twenties.

"Jase!"

"Emma!"

The female hugged him tightly kissing his cheek. A red mark was left on Jason's skin as he smiled widely. I bet half of the people that are in here know him and he should stop selling lies like i have been here two or three times.

"Oh god, it's been some time since i've seen you! Where have you been idiot!?"

"You know job can be stressful sweety.."

"I feel you, oh who's that hottie?"

Her blue eyes turned to me winking as i titled my head saying a quiet "excuse me".

"Just a friend of me. First time here."

"Oh, i can see.. What can i do for my most favorite person on earth?"

"Bring a Smirnoff for me and a Bacardi 151 for my friend."

She looked at me worried before returning to Jason. I couldn't really hear them.

"Are you sure he can stand it? Bacardi 151 is one of the strongest alcoholic drinks in the world.."

"Who said i want him standing still when we leave?"

She laughed patting his shoulder as he grinned widely. She winked leaving as i was looking around. I didn't really like the place, not at all. I don't fit in such places.

"So?"

"So what?"

"Did you bring me here to drink and watch naked women?"

He let a hysterical laugh as my amber eyes were pierced on him. Emma brought the drinks, he thanked her and whispered something to her ear. She nodded and left wearing her fancy high heels. He turned his attention back to me sipping a bit from his drink. I tasted the alcohol before coughing, it was like poison. It was burning my insides, very strong. I wasn't about to ask what it was, unfortunately, i trust him.

"Oh i have plans, baby boy."

"Did you just call me a baby?"

"Not my fault you are one."

That time i wasn't giving a shit about his words. Suddenly Jason was an ass.

A man came holding a cigarette, Jason shaked his hand as he laughed sitting besides him. Jason brought his lips to his ear whispering having his palm in front of them. The man nodded looking at me for seconds bringing the cigarette to his mouth inhaling deeply.

"Oh man are you sure? He seems to be an amateur, not a pro."

I knew "he" was me.

"You know i pay Olivier, don't make your buddy sad."

That man that apparently is named Olivier rolled his eyes saying back to Jason something that i didn't understand because of the music. Olivier high-fived Jason leaving as he grinned. He grabbed his drink looking at me.

"In half an hour you'll walk upstairs. You'll face a VIP room with a bodyguard. Say that Ritter sent you."

"Why?"

"The best of the best will wait for your dick there dumbass."

"What?"

He moved and sat closer to me pointing a half-naked young woman. She was beautiful, h/c hair and e/c eyes like Aphrodite. Her hand sweating around the pole, men looking at her with lust whistling. She had a pale face and half-opened eyes.

And she looked at me and she felt broken, low on self-esteem like a lost soul. She smiled for a second and my face lit up. She knew how i felt and between us was only a group of jerks.

I turned my face to Jason, his glass was almost empty. He smirked, i knew he was staring at her, especially on her ass. I scoffed, he was just like all those fuckers.

"Isn't she pretty? Her nickname is Black Widow. No one knows her real name."

"Black Widow?"

"She bites.. A lot.. She is the best stripper in LA. If you survive a night with her, you're lucky son.."

"I can survive more than one night.."

I sipped a bit from my drink, its awful taste reminded me where i was. Jason smirked punching playfully my chest.

"Time to go tiger."

"Shut up."

I walked upstairs and looked right facing the bodyguard. Jason would make fun of me forever if i won't do it.

"Ritter sent me."

The bodyguard moved opening the door as i stepped in.

It was a pretty large room, the walls painted red. There was a white sofa, i sat down bringing my fingers to my chin rubbing it slightly.

"Hey handsome."

I raised my head, i was left speechless. It was the woman from before, she smiled sweetly. She sat on my lap bringing her fingers to my chest.

"I am Black Widow, what's your name love?"

"I am Alex."

"Alex.. Oh nice name.. Your friend paid me a lot to give you the best night of your life."

"You don't want this. Actually, you hate it."

"What do you mean?"

"You looked at me through the club and i did the same. You don't like this, you feel lost."

She sighed and stood up sitting besides me. She brought her palm to her forehead rubbing it.

"You were that man? Wow.."

Silence filled the room, we didn't really have anything to talk about.

"My real name is Y/n. To bad boys, i am known as Black Widow but you are a good man, Alex."

"It's my pleasure meeting you, y/n."

"Me too, Alex.. Are you sure you don't want anything from me?"

"Actually i want."

She tensed up.

"To drive you home. You had enough men drooling at your sight for today."

I offered my hand standing up as she grabbed it gentle. Her face turned to sadness looking away.

"I don't want to go home. The boss will wait for me.."

"Wait?"

"Olivier, you met him. He is the boss in here.. He.. He uses me a lot and makes me stay with him and.."

Her eyes were covered with tears. That bastard, nice friends Jason has. Sure there was something off with him anyways.

"You'll stay with me tonight. I am not gonna hurt you, i swear."

"I-I don't know.."

"Please.."

She nodded holding tightly my hand as we walked downstairs. I made sure no one understands her between the crowd as we got in my car driving home. In the car, there was silent again. 

When we arrived, she got out looking around in awe as i smiled. I unlocked the door as she ran in happily.

"You have a really nice house!"

"Thanks.."

We spent the night together, we laughed and talked and she explained how she's never felt so free and alive in her life until now. It was nice knowing that somebody had a reason to live because of you. She didn't have pajamas and was forced to wear one of my T-shirts but she liked it. She giggled and got red when i called her cute. She was a really nice lady full of dreams like me. She preferred imagination than reality and would do everything to leave her job. In the end, she fell asleep on my shoulder as we were watching a movie. I held her close and she felt secure after so many years. I kissed her cheek and she opened her eyes.

"You make me happy Alex."

"And you fixed my heart."

Sometimes, bandages and medicines can't help a broken heart, can't fix that one crack. A person can. Her lips seemed too close to mine and we kissed. I was ready to take her away from here, from anything that hurts her.

From that club, from Olivier, from reality.

I found a dreamer in a place i never imagined would.
