My Best Friend's Dad

Twelve

~*~*~

"Theo stop!!" I yell as Theo repeatedly punches him in the face. I pull Theo off and look up at him grabbing his hands. "It's okay. It's okay." I rub my thumb along his hand.

He was still pissed, but my touch calmed him down. His eyes softened and he looked down, blood dripping from his nose.

"Come on. Let's get you cleaned up."

5 hours earlier

"Come on Ella!! Everyone is going to start arriving any minute." Alisha squeals. I groan and walk downstairs. I swear both of their jaws dropped.

"Wow!" Alisha whistles. I giggle and look at Theo. He sends me a sly wink and I blush, looking down.

We hear a knock at the door and my stomach flips. I was so fucking nervous.

~*~*~

The party was in full swing and everyone was having a great time.

I had just finished my 5th can and you could say I was a bit tipsy.

I run around trying to find someone I knew, but I had no luck.

I walked to the kitchen and took a seat on the stall and bowed my head to somewhat ease the throbbing.

"Ella," I hear someone say my name. "Long time, no see." I look up and see my old friend, Jack, from grade 7.

"Oh my god Jack, I thought you moved away?" I asked as he sat down next to me. I can admit, he most definitely has got good looking. No where near Theo but he still had a little something-something.

"Yeah, I did. But we moved back last week. I heard you were having a party, thought I'd come and surprise you." He flashes me a smile.

I smile, "Well, you succeeded."

"Happy Birthday by the way. Big 18 huh?"

"Yep, finally legal." I smile. My thoughts flashed to Theo, finally legal. I bite a smile back, just thinking about him made me smile instantly.

"Do you wanna go upstairs? So we can actually hear ourselves speak?" He suggests.

I nod, and stand up following him upstairs, completely ignoring the fact that if I was sober I would most definitely not go upstairs with him. But I was drunk, so I decided to anyway.

I stumble into Alisha's room and sit on her bed, he closes the door behind him and I instantly whip my head towards the door. "Why did you close it?"

"So we could have a little privacy." He sat down, rather close I might add. "You know, you've got a really good body." His hand gripped my waist.

I shuffle back, "What the fuck, Jake."

"Come on, I know you want to." He pulled me closer again.

Now I realised this was a really bad idea.

"Jake, I've got a boyfriend." I lie. "Stop!"

"He doesn't have to know does he?" He leans in to try and kiss me but I shuffle back so he couldn't reach my lips. "Come on, I know you liked me in grade 7."

"That was grade 7, Jake. Now, I have a boyfriend and don't want to kiss you," this had sobered me up a bit.

"Okay, fine." He pushed me back so my back was on the bed, he crawled on top of me, "I'll make you." and started kissing my neck. Me trying my best to push him off but he was just too strong.

"Stop!! Jake, get off me!!" I almost felt like crying. He was trying to rape me.

I heard the door swing open and before I knew it Jake was pulled off me and was now on the ground.

It was Theo.

He was punching Jake square in the face and he wasn't holding back. If he kept going, he was going to kill Jake.

"Theo stop!!" I yell as Theo repeatedly punches him in the face. I pull Theo off of him and look up at him grabbing his hands. "It's okay. It's okay." I rub my thumb along his hand, tears still brimming at my eyes.

He was still pissed, but my touch calmed him down. His eyes softened and he looked down, blood dripping from his nose. Jake must have gotten a hit in too.

"Don't you ever fucking touch her again." Theo growled at the body that was sprawled on the floor covered in blood.

"Come on. Let's get you cleaned up."

I pull Theo away even though he definitely wanted to keep going. I pull him into the bathroom and lock the door.

"Why were you up there with him?" Theo asked me, no emotion on his face. He was annoyed.

"He's an old friend, I thought he just wanted to go up there to talk. I guess I was wrong." I sigh and pull the first aid kit out.

"Boys don't go upstairs just to 'talk', El." He said is a softer voice

I nod, "I know. I was stupid." Theo didn't get a chance to reply as I dabbed the cut on his eyebrow with an alcoholic wipe. He winced, "Sorry." I whisper.

I grab some toilet paper and dab his nose, wiping the blood away. I grab a bit of bandage and tap it onto his forehead where he had the cut.

"Okay, all done." I say, and step back.

"Not yet," he pulls me closer and kisses me softly on the lips. "Now you are."

I couldn't help but smile at the guy before me. He made me so happy.

"Come on, I think I'm going to call it a night. I've had enough." By now, mostly everyone had left. We walk out of the bathroom and to the room I have been staying in the past few days.

"I'll see you in the morning." Theo whispers.

He leans in and ends my night with a sweet, soft kiss. "Happy Birthday."

He smiles, closing the door and walking to his room.

How could I be so lucky?
