May 19th...

I woke up this morning with a huge smile on my face thinking of the talk Myth and I had the night before.
Plans have been made and now just need to be put in motion...

I showered, got dressed, took my pills and decided to go for a little roll to start the day.

Mina walked me home and Myth was there waiting for me. He left home shortly after speaking with Mina so I grabbed my journal and started to write...

April 8, 2009

The clown attacked Katey last night. I could see how upset she was. She even apologized for the stage incident...

I met Kimmie and Atich today at the bar. Atich is a funny character and together we created a new drink ~ mock-absinthe ~ really he asked for absinthe and I poured him a glass of scotch by accident.

Myth came in the bar. I desperately wanted to talk to him, as did Katey. Katey asked me to pour her a drink and from the comments Myth made led me to believe that she might have had a drinking problem I wasn’t aware of. Yet another example of what a kind person he is...
He left without speaking to either of us.

Later that morning Vitto, Atich, Cherish and I were all standing in the square talking. We watched Ram ride up and he revved the motor of his bike loudly and it looked like he was trying to pop a wheelie but it threw him and his bike into the wall nearby. We couldn’t help but giggle at him ~ what a show-off.

Katey and I went shopping today, as per Sarah’s orders. It was nice to spend some time with her. We bonded like sisters again, yet still didn’t really speak of our relationship. By the time Katey was finished with me, I felt like ‘Sandy’ from Grease and walked around singing “Look at me, I’m Sandra Dee”. That song was stuck in my head all day...

Met Kiss today at the bar…she kinda stood out with the outfit she was wearing...electrical tape and all...

Myth snuck into the bar later and told me he was looking for me. I took him to the kitchen and flat out asked him if he really did those things to Jess. I could tell it made him a little uncomfortable. I also finally had the chance to tell him that RM was asking about our relationship and wanted clarification that we were just friends...
Myth told me that he had the money for me to pay off the IOU with RM and wanted me out of RM’s claws...
I needed to go back to work, so he hid in the basement of Lulu’s.
I walked back to the bar and met up with Damion again. He told me that he had info and wanted to speak to me privately about it. I met him down by the docks. It was more of a warning than info…if I was hiding Myth I was going down with him...

I get back to the bar and see that it’s crowed. All I could think was Myth hiding in the basement. I went to the back and saw him. We needed to find a way to get him out without anyone seeing him.
I looked around that bar and saw Damion and asked him quietly to help cause a distraction. He took care of Xeno. I needed to take care of Roan.
I pulled Roan away from the bar and made sure his back was turned before I gave out a whistle.
The one thing we didn’t anticipate was Cloee seeing Myth run out the back door. She screamed, “It’s him!” and that made Roan turn around to look. I just took off running out the front door and just about ran into the clown.

We met up in the alley by his place. Myth and I began to talk.
We asked and answered questions like...
Myth: “Why are you being so nice to me?”
Anja: “You are helping me pay my debt to RM how else can I repay you.”

Then he took me to Bo’s office ~ his new hiding spot ~ to give me the money.

We talked and got a lot out in the open...
He told me that he attacked Lynx and I told him that I had helped Mika that night.
I told him about what Katey did to me on the stage and he was concerned that I was hurt.
I asked him if Nat had put him up to all of this and he replied no.

As we spoke, I noticed the scars on his chest; his shirt was slightly open for me to see his skin. I lightly touched one, tracing my finger along the jagged line and asked where he got it. I think he told me, but I don’t remember…

I then asked what his next move was going to be and he told me RM. I offered to help him. I said that I was sure I could lure him, using the money as bait.

Myth pulled me close to his body, so close I could feel the warmth of his skin. He said that he didn’t want to think about this anymore and that he had people helping him and didn’t want me hurt...

Then he kissed me.
Lightly brushing his lips against mine. The feeling that traveled through my body was just about indescribable, but it felt like a million butterflies taking flight in my stomach. That’s when I knew he had me.

I pulled back a bit and told him I had many men vying for my attention, but I was never interested, I only wanted him. Myth confessed that he wanted me at least once, so that if RM did find him he would die happy.

The joke of the night was about the concealed weapon he was hiding...

Myth agreed that we were meant to be. I never wanted this night to end.

He gave me my nickname that night ‘Peach’, as I was as delectable as one he said.

We thought it would be best if I didn’t spend the night. It just wasn’t safe.
Before I left, Myth gave me an envelope with the $5000.
I went back to his place and this time I slept in the bed and not on the couch…

I closed my journal and looked around the apartment. My phone rang and I answered it. It was just the news I needed. I smiled and hoped that Myth wouldn’t be too upset with the decision I had just made. I grabbed my things and headed out the door...
