"PETER!" i yell before he has the chance to hit my girlfriend. he looks up at me with his angry eyes. i look over at barrett and she's on the ground clutching her stomach. i look at stefanía and my heart breaks. her nose is bleeding. this makes me so angry. i stomp down the stairs.

"ahh miss danielle. nice of you to join us, finally." the sound of him saying my name makes me cringe.

"get away from her." i say glancing at stefanía.

"why, i was just having fun."

"peter." i say sternly and he backs a couple steps back.

"don't get so angry sweetie. we're all good."

"no peter. it's not all good. what the fck are you doing here." i ball my fists. this feels like before.

"just wanted to say hello." he smirks and looks back and forth between us three.

"you can leave now."

"oh i'm not ready to leave." he says and takes a step towards me. i glance at stefania and she looks completely terrified. she's holding her nose. all i want to do is hold her tight and make it all safe here.

"go." i say.

"ohh sweetie, are you sure that's what you want?" he steps even closer to me.

"yes. go." he takes another step towards me and now he's almost touching me.

"i know you missed me." his breath reeks of alcohol. he grabs my waist and pulls me close to him. "let's get out of here." he whispers.

"yes you can get out of here. i'll stay right here." he moves his hands to my ass and squeezes it. i push him off of me and he comes right back. i push him again and something changes in him. he lunges at me but i move out of the way.

all of a sudden i'm back to what i was doing before i left him for good. i throw a punch and it hits peter really good in his face.

"damn, i forgot how good of a fighter you are." he laughs and throws a punch back. it hits the side of my face. i don't even flinch. i hit him again and his face begins to bleed. i glance over at stefanía. she's crying and holding her face still. my poor baby. before i realize it peter pushes me to the ground. i get back up and punch peter multiple times. his face is bleeding a lot now.

"PUT YOUR HANDS UP!" i turn to see two police officers at the door. i put my hands up as well as everyone else in the room.

"peter brown, you are under arrest. you have the right to remain silent...."

"you bitch!" peter yells at me. i immediately run over to stefania and hold her tight.

"i was so so scared bella." she whispers as she cries more.

"i know baby. i'm here. he's gone. we're okay." i hold her tight and we sit there until a police officer and paramedic come over. stefania tells the police officer what happened and i look over to see barrett doing the same thing. i don't even know when she got here. the police take all of the information and we head to the hospital. barrett is hurting pretty bad so they took her in an ambulance and we followed behind them.

"thank you." stefanía whispers as i drive to the hospital.

"for what?" i ask.

"you went through so much with him already, and then you just basically saved my life." she cries.

"i love you. i would do anything for you." i squeeze her hand. "thank you for coming home and protecting me my love."

we arrive at the hospital and they take barrett into the er. we follow them and a few doctors stop us. "hey, you two should probably be checked out." she says and i look at stefanía. i nod and she takes us to a bed. "your friend will be okay, we have the best care there is."
