"WhAt!? WhY aRe YOU here!?" I asked Tom as I stood back on my feet.
"Your welcome for saving you from a concussion!" Said Tom while raising his eyebrows.
"Thank you! BUT! I'm FiNe!" I said as I was about to lose my balance once again.
"Sure! Ok Emily look at me!" He said as he saw I was almost falling asleep. He supported me with both of his arms and gently shook me.
"YoPe! YES SIR!" I said opening my eyes as wide as possible.
"Where are Sam and Harry!?" Asked me Tom as I saw a worried expression on his face.
"Harry is in the bathroom with a girl.... but shhhhh! Don't tell anyone!" I said as I raised my finger to his lips. "I loveeeeee kiSsInG yOu!" I said as I leaned on Tom.
"Ok! We have to get you out of here! Harrison!?" Tom yelled as I slowly closed my eyes. "Ok baby... come on." Said Tom as I felt his strong arms carrying me out.
"But wait! HARRY! SAM! COME ON!!" I yelled as I struggled in Tom's arms.
"Harrison will find them don't worry!" Said Tom as he held me tightly.
"Ok... thank y—" I said as I drifted off to sleep.
Tom's point of view
As she fell asleep in my arms I couldn't help but smile at her cute face. When I finally found my way out of the bar, I walked to the car. I was still a bit angry at her for the way she had left me earlier, but it didn't matter anymore. All I wanted was to get her home safely. I gently placed her in the backseat and closed the door. I couldn't bring her home like this. And I couldn't leave her at her house either. The only place I could think about was Harrison's apartment. As I started driving, I couldn't help but start feeling angry again. I knew she didn't need to be protected but I needed her to understand that I cared about her. That I was there. Plus, I didn't want random strangers gawking at her while she danced with that dress on. I knew too well what these men wanted and the last thing I would want is for one of them to try something on my Emily.
"Where am I...", groaned Emily in the back.
"I'm here Darling... don't worry." I said reassuring her as I looked back at her.
"Where are you going?" She asked, still asleep.
"I'm taking you to Harrison's apartment. You are in no condition to come home right now. So once you're sober, we'll go back home." I said as I reached for her hand, twisting my arm behind my seat. She laid her head on my hand and fell back asleep. Ok... not angry anymore! I mean look at her...
We entered the condo's parking lot and I parked the car. I opened the back door and pulled Emily by the legs so I could carry her inside. I walked us in the building and pressed the button to go up the elevator. The doors opened to a group of guys. I had seen them before at Haz's parties but never actually talked to them.
"Dude! Nice job! She's a babe!", said one of the assholes.
"Are you guys getting out or...?" I asked annoyed.
"Nah man! We're going up. Come in. You want me to take her?" Answered another guy while the others chuckled and looked at Emily. If she wasn't in my arms right now I would probably punch them for the way they looked at her.
"No it's fine. 14th floor" I said as I entered the elevator.
"So where did you get her.I mean it's not every day you find a hottie like that. I'd like to get myself one. Or you could share this one too..." the dickhead said as he placed a hand on Emily's ankle.
The elevator doors opened to our floor and I got out. I laid Emily against the wall and slowly walked back to the elevator with my head down. I clenched my jaw and looked up to the asshole who dared touching Em:
"I think you should get that checked..." I said as I looked deep into his eyes.
"Get what checked out?" He laughed.
"That." I said calmly as I pushed him in the face.
After three hits, the guy's nose was crooked and my hand was bloody.
"Don't ever touch my girl again... if you do... I'll kill you!" I said as I took him by the collar, raising him a little bit off the floor.
"I'm sorry man! I'm sorry!" He whimpered.
I walked away and wiped my hand on my jeans. Emily groaned as we entered the house.
"It's ok baby... almost there ok..." I whispered as I opened the bedroom door.
I gently placed her on the bed and moved her hair from her face. I took off her shoes and covered her with a blanket. She looked so perfect, so calm. I knew that I would never feel the same way for anyone else. I would fight for her all my life if I had too.
"Tom..?" she whispered.
"Yeah Baby I'm here..." I said as I sat on the bed to get closer to her.
"I... I'm sorry..." she said as she opened halfway her sleepy eyes.
"I'm sorry too. I should've acted like a dick. I was just trying to prot—" I started before she interrupted me.
"I love you..." she softly whispered. "Always have, always will..." she said before finally passing out.
WHAT. THE. FUCK.
