Innocent or Not

Ace.
What's their to say about him? He was a psychopath or murderer or just a boy with a broken heart. Though he's been called
worse , one thing he hasn't been called was bunny. That's until Lia calls him one. "A bunny? How?" He laughs as he takes a sip
of his water.
Right now the two were at a small cafe talking nonstop about anything . Never getting bored. "Yes a bunny! Your noes is really
cute and ... and you're always frowning and bunnies frown so..." she trails off as she picks at her cake.
Ace smiled at her before lifting her chin . "Alright then if you're gonna call me bunny then you have to let me call you princess."
Lia looks up at him with a frown . Like before she didn't like to be called princess.
"I-I don't like it." She mumbles as she takes a spoon of cake into her mouth . Ace brought her it.
"Why not ?" He says as he takes a sip of drink.
Lia felt embarrassed because she was royalty. Though she hated it , he'd probably think she was some spoiled brat , which she
is. "My names Lia Andrews. Umm... I'm royal to the Andrews..." she mumbles out as she shifts on her feet.
"I know that ." He says as he smiles at her with adoration. "I've actually met your father. It was unpleasant to hear him die." It was
true. Lia's father was there to help him when his parents died.
Lia's father , Fredrick , used to work in a diner . Ace would come their to help him in anyway he could. "Y-You met my dad?
That's nice." She smiles . It's been five years since he died from cancer but she knew that he was happy in a better place.
"Hurry up and eat , I wa-
Ace was abruptly cut off by the familiar sound of gunfire . The cafe's glasses were being pounded with bullets. Ace pulled Lia
down under the seat and screaming was heard. "A-Ace ?" She whispers as the gunfire continues.
Ace tightens his fist. John. It had to be Johns pals to do this. It was the only reason why they would dare come and attack when
he didn't have his gang. "Shh baby." He coos as he pulls her to his chest. He took a glance at the boys and see they were
walking away.
This must have been a warning.

"Is everyone okay?! Oh my goodness , call the police !" A man calls out as he peaks his head from the counter. Lia was a
shaking mess as she saw dead bodies on the ground .
Ace shielded her from it and took her hand. "Don't look . Let's get out of here." Ace swiftly picked her up and took her to his car.
This time she was sitting in his lap. He needed her to be far away because he wasn't gonna forgive this.
"W-was that... are they dead ?" She whispers as she looks up at Ace. Ace only winced as he kisses her forehead.
"No they aren't dead."
Lia didn't like blood. For the very reason when she was kidnapped not long ago. Yeah . Kidnapped . Since she was royalty, the
only way the kidnappers could get money was to take her. They even beat her when she was on treatment. The whole thing
made her unable to walk for days .
Though Lia was happy that she has Ace with her. She wrapped her small arms around his neck and hugged him while he started
to drive. "Thank you ." She whispers in his neck.
Ace shudders . He kissed her forehead . "For what princess?" He teased as he prayed this would brighten the mood.
Nope it didn't. "Ace... I said I don't like being called that. It can be anything but that." She whines as she tightened her grip. Ace
smiled at her and kissed her cheek.
"Alright then I'll call you baby." This made her ears red but nonetheless she nodded her head and sinked deeper in his chest.
"Okay Bunny." She whispers and that made a warm glow in his heart.

When they got to Lia's home , the first people that were there was her bodyguards. "Lia oh my... thank god." Her bodyguard , Fay
says as she pulls Lia in a hug. Then her other bodyguard , Trey comes over and pulls her into a hug.
"I'm fine! Ace was there to protect me." She mumbles as she couldn't help but hug them back. After all she did love hugs.
When they departed, Fay and Trey gave suspicious glances towards Ace before sighing. "Thank you very much for protecting
Princess Lia." Trey bowed his head at Ace which Ace just felt embarrassed by the whole thing.
"I would do anything for Lia. Anyways ... Lia I'll pick you up so be ready in the morning." He pulls her into a hug , to be truthfully
he didn't know if he was gonna make it out alive after he does what he needs to do tonight. "See you later baby." He whispers in

ear making her once again blush.
"Bye bunny!" She waves off as she smiles at his retreating body. Then a hand brings her on their shoulder and she already knew
who it was . "Come on Fay! This is really embarrassing!" She whines.
Fay only smirked as she brought her into her home. "I've been doing this since you were a baby dork." That was true . Lia loves
when she came to the hospital and let her on her shoulder.

"I want them dead. They had the audacity to come and attack me when I wasn't armed?" Ace speaks out coldly as he was in a
room with a all his gang members. "Listen to me everyone . There's a girl and her name is Lia Andrews. You are all too protect
her no matter what , got it?"
His gang members looked at him strangely , nonetheless they agreed to it . "Don't worry. Tonight they are all gonna die." Noah
says with a reassuring smile . Ace wasn't really in the friendly mood so he shook his head and looked at his gun.
"Gosh... when was the last time I had to kill someone..." Ace mumbled lazily as he stood up from his chair. His friend Noah gave
me him a skeptical smirk.
"You killed someone last week." Noah says with a grin . Ace didn't remember it because he has killed so many.
He got up from his chair and loaded his gun. "Alright now... lets go teach these fuckers not to mess with this gang. Under no
circumstances are you to let anyone live . Understood?"
His gang members replied with 'yes sir' making Ace smile proudly and they all walked out so they could take care of business.
