We get to the twins house, my hand now slightly throbbing and possibly bleeding as well. Lizzie practically drags me inside once we park and get out of the car. "Do you guys have any wrap for his knuckles?" She turns to her sisters.

"Babe I'm fine" I say which she quickly looks at me and glares.

"You're hand says otherwise."

"Yea I'll go grab some with Ash" MaryKate says taking Ashley with her into the hallway bathroom.

I sigh and walk into the kitchen to run my hand under cold water in the sink. Lizzie follows me close behind and watches silently as I rinse my hand off of blood. "Let me see." She sighs grabbing my wrist and a rag.

"You're going to get blood on their rag darling. I'm fine" I try objecting but she still takes the rag patting my knuckles dry.

"It's fine I can buy them more" She dries my hand off then I notice that my knuckle is indeed bleeding. She notices as well and starts applying pressure to my knuckles when her sisters walk to the entrance of the kitchen.

"Let's go in the living room to get his hand wrapped up." Mary-Kate suggests motioning us to follow her out into the living room.

So we follow them out and Lizzie makes me sit down on the couch. She grabs the wrap from her sister and begins tending to my hand. I look over at the twins who are sitting there awkwardly as silence fills the air. I take a deep breath and decide to say something. "I uh.. I'm sorry about that back there. Are you ok Ashley?"

"Yea I'm ok... You stopped him before he slapped me again. He's never gotten that bad before.." She sighs leaning into Mary-Kate.

Silence falls amongst us again, I can tell they want to ask questions. I sigh looking down at my hand as Lizzie wraps it up. "I'm sorry if I scared you guys with my freak out... I've never done that before. I've gotten into my fair share of fights but I never beat someone like that..." I keep my gaze on my hand, not being able to look at the twins, or even Lizzie.

"Can I ask why you got like that?" Mary-Kate queries quietly.

I stay silent for a moment, then I feel Lizzie kiss my cheek prompting me to look up at her. "You can trust them babe" She smiles softlu then goes back to finishing up my hand.

"Uh... Before Lizzie I was..." I pause taking a few deep breaths before continuing. "I was in a very abusive relationship. I was emotionally, physically and mentally abused for years..." My sentence trails off, keeping my eyes on my hand which Lizzie finished wrapping. She sits next to me and hugs onto me tightly makig me smily a little. "I even have scars from it.. it was a very dark time in my life.. And when I saw you.." I look over at the twins, "...were getting abused I just snapped. I saw red and attacked. I didn't think I had that in me. So I'm really sorry if I scared you three"

"That's horrible Y/n!" Mary-Kate frowns then covers her mouth.

"It was a little scary but I'm just glad you stopped him." Ashley smiles sadly over at me.

"And this isn't making us look at you like you're insane or anything so please don't think that!" Mary-Kate assures me with a smile as well.

"Honestly you're probably the only guy Lizzie's dated who would've done that" Ashley adds with a little laugh as Lizzie glares at her.

"You... don't think I'm some maniac?" I check.

"No! It's a good thing you were here. Even if you went a little overboard but still" Ashley laughs again.

"Thank god. I was embarrassed and worried you guys were going to hate me. This isn't the greatest first impression" I chuckle nervously.

"We definitely don't hate you Y/n" Mary-Kate smiles.

"Thanks Mary-Kate" I breathe a sigh of relief as Lizzie still hugs onto me.

"You can call me MK, it'll be a lot easier" She laughs.

"And you can just call me Ash if you'd like" Ash smiles softly then stands up. "I think I need some sleep. Thank you again Y/n for stopping my ex. And I'm sorry that has happened to you as well, no one deserves any of that" She gives me a quick hug then hugs Lizzie. "Goodnight guys" She waves and disappears upstairs.

"I told you they'd like you" Lizzie chimes in after being silent for a few minutes.

"I was even more worried after I just beat the ever-living shit out of a guy" I groan leaning back on the couch, covering my face with my hands. "I can't believe I snapped like that"

"It makes sense. Either was, we do like you." MK gets up and stretches. "I think I'll head to bed as well. Goodnight you two." She also gives me a quick hug then hugs Lizzie and walks upstairs.

"Did I scare you?" I turn to face Lizzie grabbing onto her hands. "I'm so sorry if I did"

"It's fine. I was definitely caught off guard, but I'm glad you protected my sister" She grabs my face and kisses me softly. "Don't worry too much about how we reacted to what happened. They like you and I still love you"

"I love you too. And I love our little tiny baby" I smile placing my hand on her stomach. "I won't let anyone hurt either of you" I pull her closer to me, hugging her tightly.

"I know my love, I trust you" She hugs me back, squeezing me tightly.

"Tomorrow I'm making breakfast for you and the twins I hope you know this" I pull back chuckling seeing her roll her eyes at me.

"You don't have to do that you know" She chuckles shaking her head.

"I know but I want to. I also was going to do it regardless of what happened tonight" I shrug then give her a loving kiss. "When do you want to tell people about the pregnancy also?" I query.

"At about 3 months. But I did already tell my sisters..." She laughs nervously.

"How dare you tell them,?" I gasp exaggeratedly then laugh, "I'm kidding. I told Ryder like two weeks ago"

"Is that why he's been weird about me drinking tea and all that?" She squints her eyes at me.

"Yea. That was not my fault. He's just weird" I shrug making her laugh. "Now I could really use some cuddles in bed" I smirk wiggling my eyebrows at her.

"Just cuddling mister!" She laughs standing up from the couch.

"Alright fine, only cuddling" I put my hands up to my chest in surrender as I stand up to my feet.

"Good" She giggles getting on her tip toes and kisses me. "Come on let's get ready for bed"

"Oh let me grab our bags. You can go up to the room I'll meet you there"

"Right our bags, I'll come help" She walks off to grab the car keys.

"I can grab them it's fine darling" I object following after her.

"Not happening. Let's go" She grabs my wrist leading me outside to the car. We grab our bags and head back inside then up to the guest room where we were going to be staying while we are here. Then we get changed and into bed to cuddle before falling asleep.
