Capítulo 47: 47 [Lola & Apollo 1]
Apollo was at Jack's night club drinking there for the fifth time that night. He didnt want to go back to his condo as it made him realize how lonely and empty it made him feel. He was still hung up on Megan and hated that no matter what he told her about Roman she'd stick by him without worrying about herself. Apollo wanted to grab her and shake her till she realized that Roman was not someone who could keep her happy in the long run. He knew what he did to his Brother was wrong too, he betrayed Roman in a sense by telling Megan most of his secrets. He had played dirty in hopes to get Megan out of his grip but failed and ended up looking foolish.
"You need to let it go man. Megan and Roman are not breaking up anytime soon." Jack sips his whiskey looking at his depressed friend with an apathetic look on his face.
Apollo looked up from his drink. He sighed heavily as he shook his head. There was no point in trying to fight. Jack was right. Roman wasnt gonna be breaking up with her anytime soon. It was a losing battle that he wasn't going to win.
He groaned and shook his head once again. "I can't get her out of my head." he said as he took another drink. "It's not fair."
"I honestly still don't know how you fell for her so fast...I thought you hated Megan."
Apollo laughed but it only sounded bitter. "I hated her at first, yeah." He took another sip of his drink. "But once we actually got to know each other we had so much in common. We had the same beliefs and values, similar backgrounds, we even had similar taste in music. We were just so alike. I thought that maybe I had a chance with her but I didnt realize that she had it bad for Roman."
Jack shakes his head, "You and Roman will never see eye and eye when it comes to her."
"I know." Apollo replied. He seemed resigned to being unable to change things. He knew that there was nothing he could do to convince Megan to leave his brother and it was honestly just hurting him. "I should just move on. Find a girl that would actually want me." he said with a heavy sigh.
Jack smiles, "You never know man. You might meet your Mrs right soon."
"Maybe." Apollo sighed as he looked down at his drink. It had gotten to the point where he hated himself for how attached he was to Megan. How hard he'd try to get her to leave Roman and how much it consumed him. It took over most of his thoughts. He knew that he should just move on and meet someone else, but he couldnt seem to let his feelings for her go.
Jack looks at his phone, "I have to make a quick call. I'll be right back man, don't drink too much."
Apollo sighed as he watched his friend walk away. He was always so positive, even in the face of trouble and hardship. Apollo finished off his drink before deciding to give up drinking for the night. He couldn't keep sulking around the club. He should go home and get some sleep. He was only getting drunk to drown his sorrows away. He got up and began to walk towards the front of the club, about ready to head home.
"You asshole you can't touch her just because she is drunk!"
Apollo heard a girl yell outside. He was walking with his guards right behind him.
"Bitch don't get involved!" A man yelled back.
She scoffs, "If I see a jerk trying to take advantage of a fellow woman I will step in!"
Another girl talks, "Lola...don't get involved we don't know them."
"Still! We have to help her!" Lola shouts glaring at the large man.
Apollo had heard the commotion coming outside of the club and was about to keep walking until Lolas words made him slow down and eventually stop. It was rare to hear a woman speak so strongly about something and it definitely caught his attention. As he looked towards the girls standing across the street, he saw that their friend was clearly intoxicated. And now there was a group of guys who were surrounding her.
Apollo clenched his fists as he began to march over towards the men with his two guards close behind.
"Natty, take the girl and I will deal with him!" Said Lola glaring at the man who was twice her size.
Natty runs to the girls aid pulling her aside, "Come darling."
"Thank you." The drunk girl said.
The man grabs Lola, "Who asked you to get involved?!"
Lola rolls her eyes, " let go of me!"
As Lola was grabbed, Apollo stepped in front of her and pushed the man away from her. He glared down at the man and shook his head. His guards were right behind him, watching the situation carefully.
"Back off." Apollo said in a low and intimidating voice. "You have some nerve grabbing that woman like that. Just who do you think you are?" he said as he gripped the mans collar tightly.
"Let go of me before my friends get involved!" The man threatens Apollo.
Apollo laughed at the man as he grabbed his collar even tighter. "And who might your friends be? Because I doubt they'll be much of a match for my guys." he said. His guards moved closer to the man, clearly intent on causing him some harm if he didnt back down.
The man looks at the guards and immediately recognizes the danger He is in if he continues to cause trouble. "Sorry man...I am sorry."
Apollo let go of the mans collar, but he wasnt totally ready to let it go completely. He continued to glare at the man, making sure he wouldnt try anything else.
"Good." he said as he crossed his arms. "If I ever see you around her again ill have my guards teach you a lesson in manners."
The man nods and runs away quickly. Natty watches with a huge smile on her face, "I know You! You're Megan's rich friend who came to school once." She points at him.
Lola looks at him confused, she didn't think she knew him at all.
Apollo looked back at Natty, he was a bit shocked that she'd recognized him. She was obviously remembering the time i came to visit Megan at her college. He wasnt sure if she meant that in a good way or a bad way. But regardless he smiled back at her.
"Thats right... I'm that guy." he replied awkwardly.
Lola frowns, "You're Apollo?"
Apollo laughed and nodded his head. "That's me." He was surprised that Lola also knew who he was. "It looks like you already know who I am. Must keep up with the news, huh?" he said.
"No. Megan told me all I need to know about you." Lola forces a smile on her face, "Thanks for your help tonight...bye." she takes Natty by the hand and they leave with the drunk girl.
Apollo watched as the girls walked away. It was clear to him that Megan's opinion of him was not a very high one considering the way Lola spoke to him. He turned around back towards the club and sighed to himself as he began walking up the stairs again. He hated that Megan thought he was probably a spoiled, selfish idiot. It wasnt fair to him.
