"Lucas! Oh my gosh!" I scream and run to him. He pulls me into a tight hug and I sob into his chest. "I thought I was going to die."

"I know, I know." Lucas coos in my ear, making me want to go to sleep to the soft sound. "We have to go before the others come back." Lucas says dragging me away, back up the alleyway, along a couple streets, right on third, left on A Street and we kept going straight until we reached our hotel.

Back in our hotel room I cried and cried until Lucas looked like he had just gone swimming. I apologized profusely for the many mascara and snot stains on his shirt but he shrugged it off, literally, he shrugged off his shirt because he was about to go to bed anyways. I got into my pajamas as well, crying along the way. I snuggled next to Lucas, continuing to cry until I began to worry if I was annoying Lucas.

"I'm sorry, I'm bothering you, aren't I? You just want to sleep, I'm sorry." I apologize repeatedly, attempting to get off his bed and out of his hair. He had other plans however because he grabbed my hips and pulled me back to him.

"You're not bothering me, Maya. You can talk to me all night if you need to. I'm always here, remember that." Lucas told me, looking into my eyes.

"You know he's going to be back, right? Just because you punched him once won't stop him from trying to come back to me. He scares me." I admit, shivering and snuggling closer to Lucas' side.

"I'll just have to stay with you, to protect you, what an awful assignment, don't you think?" Lucas joked, chuckling a little bit. I blushed at his sweetness and hold my knees to my chest. "Hey, who is that guy anyways? And what does he want with you?"

"That was Noah, my ex boyfriend. He was a gorgeous guy but I learned real quick that he was obsessed with...you know...anyways, so after several attempts of him trying to get me to sleep with him, I broke it off. I ran away with my mom, and well here we are, him still chasing me. I just want to get rid of him. He's caused me so many sleepless nights and tears." I choke back a sob and lean into Lucas' chest, crying for another ten minutes.

"Maya, you will never have to deal with him again, so long as I'm here." Lucas promised, holding me closely to his chest. I pulled away, looking into his eyes. He leaned forward, I did too. We were inches from each other's mouths before Lucas spoke. "May I kiss you, Maya?"

I nodded and he pulled my face to his, kissing me passionately. I wrapped my arms around his neck, leaning in to the kiss. He held my cheeks and I ran my hands through his hair, smiling as he kissed me.

"Thank you." I whispered as he kissed my neck. I closed my eyes and leaned onto him, falling asleep on top of him.
