If Only You Knew

Chapter 17

On my way back to my apartment I decide to cut through the park though I haven't been paying much attention to where I'm going. Which causes me to bump into someone. "Hey!" A deep male voice says to me.

I don't look up or anything, "Sorry sir." I apologize and keep walking but suddenly I'm stopped by a hand grabbing on to my arm. "Hey let go of me-" I try to yank my arm away and turn round to face the man.

When I turn I see a creepy and devilish grin across the mans face. "Well aren't you a pretty thing. I think I have a way for you to make it up for bumping into me." His grin widens as his grip around my arm tightens.

"Let go of me. It was just a bump! Get away from me!" I kick forward hitting him in the stomach causing his grip to loosen.

I try yanking my arm away once again, I manage to get my arm away but I loose my balance and fall back on my butt. "You little bitch!" He spits taking a step closer to me. "You're coming with me!"

Suddenly another man steps in front of the man, blocking him from getting to me. "I suggest you leave this poor girl alone before I call the cops."

Then I feel hands on my shoulder, I look over to see a familiar woman with a concerned look on her face squatted down next to me. "Hey are you ok? Here let's get you up." She smiles grabbing my arm softly, helping me up to my feet.

"I'm ok thanks.. is that-" I look over at the two men but now it's only one, the man who stepped in was now facing us and the creepy guy was gone. "Where'd he go?"

"He's gone. He didn't want to be arrested again. Are you alright? He didn't hurt you did he?" The man asks concerned as the woman now stands next to him.

"Oh uh, no he didn't hurt me, thanks to the two of you." I take a deep breath smiling kind of awkwardly at the two of them.

"Hey I know you! You're Y/n right?" The woman says with a widening smile across her lips.

"Um yea... how'd you know that?" I look at her very confuse on the name drop.

"Remember we met at a cast party? You came with Scar?" She says with a soft giggle afterwards.

I scan her face, it takes me a second to realize who she is. "Oh I do remember! Lizzie! You're Wanda and one of Scarlett's close friends!" I chuckle smacking my forehead, embarrassed, "Sorry I'm a little out of it today. And this must be your fiancé you were talking about!"

"It's ok no problem" She laughs brushing it off. She looks at the man and wraps her arms around him, "This is indeed. This is Robbie"

"It's nice to meet you Y/n" He smiles wrapping an arm around Lizzie's waist.

"Nice to meet you too. Thanks again for that." I sigh then groan slightly. "Now I still have to walk home."

"Why don't we walk with you? Just in case that guy comes back." Lizzie offers with a warm smile.

"Oh you don't have to do that, I don't want to make you go out of your way to walk with me." I politely decline, feeling a little nervous and still very much embarrassed.

"Nonsense! We insist, right honey?" She looks over at Robbie for confirmation. He smiles at her then looks at me and nods quietly in agreement.

I rub my arm sheepishly and smile over at them, "Thank you, I appreciate the concern"

Lizzie jumps forward wrapping her arms around me in a hug. "Of course! Any friend of Scarlett's is a friend of mine" She giggles letting go of me and stepping back a few steps.

I then begin walking in the direction of my apartment with Lizzie and Robbie following next me. Lizzie makes some small talk with me as we get closer to the apartment. Honestly it's nice talking to someone who isn't Scarlett or Talia, even though I love them to death. After around 10 minutes we arrive at the entrance to my apartment building. "This is me. Thank you both again. It was nice seeing you and meeting you" I smile putting my hands in my pockets.
