[M4F] Bodyguard Stays Behind

Transcript

Come on miss, into the car. Let's go. Move, move aside.

Enter please. Alright. Go, drive.

No one in pursuit on the sides. Blind spots checked. Crowd thinning.

Okay, I think we're mostly in the clear now. And how about you miss? How are you feeling? How was the crowd today? Was it too tight? Overwhelming? Alright.

Miss, you flatter us. Every day we're with you, it's an honor. It's our job to keep you safe.

We're not in the clear until you're back at the mansion, so. .. Please, try to relax.

We'll take care of the rest, just like always. Okay, let me check the perimeter. All looks good.

How are we looking, Jack? All good? Quiet day, huh? Alright, let's exit.

Please miss, follow me. Hey there. All seems clear today.

You're dismissed, you can go home early. Yeah, it's been quiet. Nothing of note, at least.

Miss, please, if you'll enter. Alright, we have extracted you back to your mansion. You must have missed this, big mansion.

All that talking with fans and interacting and being social. Having to put on a mask all day long. Or, I don't know if you're putting on a mask, I just.

.. Personally, I would struggle with talking with that many people all that much, just throughout the whole day, just like you. It's admirable, really.

Oh, sorry, please forgive me. I overstepped my professional boundaries. I'm sure you've got plenty of stuff to do now, and I'll park a few guys outside and I'll head home for the day.

How does that sound? Do you need anything from us? You want me to stay? Alright.

Is there a specific reason for that? We've checked the perimeter, no one in pursuit, we got the heat cams overlooking the property, nothing out of the ordinary. Just a few wild animals, but nothing dangerous, I promise.

And even so, you know the guys would take care of that. So, what's the. ..

If you don't mind me asking, why do you want me to stay? Because you're lonely. I'm sure we could arrange some escort services.

I could ask my boss, he probably has some contacts in the higher ups, he would know about this. Otherwise, I'm not sure I would make such good company. You know, I'm.

.. Like I said, I'm not much of a talker. That's why you want me here.

Miss, do you want me here to not talk? Yes? This is highly unusual for me.

You do realize I'd have to charge the same for my time, and I would be vigilant for any threats or encroachments, trespassing. I would be doing my job. But like I said, we've cleared the area, we've got a few guys stationed around, and I don't see a need for extra security today.

You want me to not be working, but still be here? As a friend? Miss, are we friends? I'm a bodyguard, I take care of your safety.

I make sure that you're secured, and that you get from A to B with minimal friction. Well, I suppose I don't really have any plans today. I could stay behind a little bit.

I'm having troubles. .. How do I say it? I'm having troubles letting go of my professional responsibility, even though you've told me to.

.. Told me to let that go, just for now. I'm a simple man.

Let me put it like that. Okay, miss, okay. I'll try.

I'll try to relax. Just behave like I'm with one of the guys. Okay.

Did you catch the football game, then? No? Oh.

Listen, I don't know you, I realize. I only check in on you in terms of safety, and your emotional well-being. That's also part of my job, but that doesn't mean I know you, and that doesn't mean I know your interests.

So since you want a company, and since I'm here, why don't you tell me a little bit about something you've done this week that's been fun and nice? I'm sure that will make for good conversation, at least for starters. So yeah, tell me.

How was your week? Well, I think maybe I'm seeing a pattern between the two of us, or a commonality. I think neither of us know how to relax.

You are literally paying me to try and relax together. This is, if you'll excuse the language, it's quite sad. Do you have a beer, or something? I could go for a beer.

And hey, maybe order some food. I really want a hamburger right now. Yeah.

It's, well, while you don't see all that much behind the scenes that we're doing, we're pretty much running around 24-7, so that you don't have to see us running around. There's a lot of background work, and today was a bit of a tough one. It was a large crowd, and I'm glad to hear that you were not overwhelmed.

We weren't, but it was one of those days that I could just really kick back with a beer right now. So if you don't mind, I'll go help myself from the fridge that I see over there. Do you want one? There we go.

Cheers. Oh, this is what I needed. Oh, you know, you always seem so calm whenever I talk with you, and when I see you on stage, and well, you know, I sneak a peek, even though I'm watching the crowd, sometimes I have to peek at you as well.

You do seem to have this calmness around you when you're, well, when I think most people would be very stressed. How do you do that? I don't understand how I could stay calm in a situation when you're performing in front of thousands, tens of thousands, maybe more people.

You just think about something nice, all right? What do you think about? Family? Friends? Those are nice things.

And yes, believe it or not, I do have friends, and I do socialize, just usually not with superstars. It does bring some calm to my day though, to watch you. I won't admit it to the guys because I shouldn't be drawing my strength from the client.

I should have that within myself. But I don't think it's that wrong to be inspired, do you? Well, especially not by you.

You do look so peaceful and in control. What's that? What's the word I said? Peaceful.

Yeah, peaceful. The other one, in control. I didn't say a third one, no.

No. I spoke before I thought. I shouldn't be saying those words.

Well, since you're pressing me for it, I'll cut the bullshit. I was about to call you beautiful. Yeah, that's what I think you are.

You are very beautiful. When you're performing, it's magical. I don't even listen to this kind of music, but you capture me.

That's what you do. I haven't told you because I'm your bodyguard. I'm professional.

I see to your safety. We can't have this distractions and ties. It's not good for, well, I can't do my job if I'm thinking about you like that.

But the thought has struck me once or twice or ten times that you're beautiful and that I would love to talk with you and get to know you.
