I paced around the room panicking. What the hell am I going to do?

My ex boyfriend, who is drunk, is about to come over to possibly beat the shit out of my new boyfriend.

"Kass, calm down. I'll take care of it. He won't hurt you" Luke said while holding my shoulders and giving me a slight smile.

I didn't want to cry but I felt the need to. I dug my face into Luke's shirt and sobbed while he held me. I don't want Ryan coming over here and hurting either me or Luke. Even though he said he was going to my appartment, he knows where Luke lives. Once he realizes I'm not there he would come right below to Luke's place. I don't wanna be the reason why Luke gets hurt.

20 minutes past, about the same time Ryan said he would be here, and nothing has happened yet. I sat on the couch anxiously while Luke would pace around the room and everyone once in a while look out the window to see if any cars would pull up.

Luke was starting to pace again when he saw car lights pull into the parking lot. Shit. He pulled back the curtains slightly to see who it was. Thank god it was only another tendent from the building and not Ryan.

We waited another 20 minutes and it was now 12:15 am and still no show of Ryan.

"He was probably just bluffing Kass to scare us. He probably is so drunk that he forgot as soon as he hung up."

"You're probably right. He wouldn't even be able to pull himself into the car with how drunk he sounded" I said chuckling and laying down on the couch, finally relaxing

Luke came over and laid with me too. We turned on the tv and slowly drifted off to sleep.

I don't know how long we were asleep for because I didnt check the clock, but we were woken up by a loud banging noise.

Someone was at the door.

Luke jumped up and told me to go into the bathroom. I nodded quickly and did what he said. He gave me a faint smile before shutting the door for me.

I heard him open the door.

"Hey pretty boy," I heard an intoxicated Ryan say, "where's the tramp?"

"Don't call her that you dick"

"Ooo isn't someone just a little fiesty?"

"Listen. I'm going to give you 10 seconds to get the fuck out of here" Luke said, getting more angry by the second

"Make me"

And with that I heard a loud bang and muffled curses. Shit they're fighting. It killed me to know that I couldn't do anything for Luke. If I came out to try and intervene, it would just make the situation worse.

The movement became less distinctive and I heard Luke speak up

"Now get the hell out of my house"

I heard the door slam and Luke swear. I slowly opened up the door to see Luke leaning against the door. His lip was bleeding and he had a cut above his right eye.

"Don't worry about me. You should've seen him" he said smirking

I couldn't help but laugh a little. He knew how to take an extremely tense situation and lighten it up.

"Let's get you cleaned up you goof"

I grabbed his hand and pulled him into the bathroom and he propped himself up not the counter. I dabbed his eye with a paper towel.
