Chapter 20

*Lillian POV*

“I’m not done with you yet!” he screamed, as he was being shoved into a squad car.

 

“Don’t worry, I wont let him near you…” a low rough voice spoke. As I turned around I saw –

 

“Holy shit!” I yelled as I sat up in bed, my heart pounding, sweat covering my body.

“Are you ok?” a males voice spoke, it startled me.

I looked over and was met with Liam’s soft brown eyes. I breathed a heavy sigh, as I thought, and was glad it wasn’t Jace next to me. I shivered at the thought of being back in that flat, no room. Its been over a week since I got away from Jace and I’m really quiet and reserved.

I just nodded my head in response to Liam and he reached over to take my hand. I flinched at first but then relaxed, as he brought my hand up to his mouth and kissed the back of it.

“Its 9:30pm.” Liam said and my eyes opened, “Why didn’t y-you wake me?” I asked voice dry and scratchy.

“You look cute when you sleep.” He replied, shrugging as if it was a no brainier.

“So are you going to come out to the New Years Eve party tomorrow night?” Liam asked as we made out way downstairs.

“Umm… I don’t… I don’t know.” I said, scared shitless at the thought of being somewhere Jace might be able to get to me.

“Please? It will be fun! I’ll never leave your side I promise! Please babe!” he begged as we walked into the kitchen. His begging and persistence put a smirk on my face.

“Maybe, I’ll think about it ok?” I said, hopping on the counter. He walked over to me and placed his warm hands on my cheeks. We held eye contact for a few seconds before he leaned in and kissed me.

We’ve been together for a month and a bit, it seems like way longer. I only have 4 months left of school before writing my GCSE’s.

“But I don’t want to be hungover, and I use that term loosely, for moving into my new flat.” I said as we broke apart.

“Look at you, thinking about drinking!” he said tickling me.

I laughed and thrashed around while begging him to stop. He stopped for a moment then he picked me up and ran to the couch with me. We fell onto the couch, him on top of me. Next thing I know, were kissing again. This time way more heated.

He was running his hand up and down my side. He started to kiss down my jaw, then my neck, then back up to my ear; sucking at times on his adventure along my neck. I’m not going to lie; I’m getting quite turned on by this.

I’ve never done anything like this, and my dad is going to be home any minute. Damn does it feel good though.
