Jack's P.O.V.

I heard a scream and jolted awake. Wren had just rolled into me and she sat up.

"What's wrong, are you okay?"

"W-whats going on? W-where the hell am I?"

"My name is Jack, you're in my bed. I'll explain what happened, but what's the last thing you remember?"

"Um.. The last thing I remember is this guy drugging me and I was trying to run away, but I ran into someone."

*Flashback*

"Hey watch out!" I yelled when someone bumped into me.

"Help, this guy put something in my drink. Can you just pretend you're my friend?"

"Okay." A guy stormed over to us. The girl held on tight to me, probably scared to death.

"Wren, come on I can take you home."

"Actually, she's gonna go home with me," I stepped in.

"She's my girl, man. She asked me to take her home so we could hang out."

"I don't believe that for a second. I'm her friend and she's gonna come home with me because I don't want her with some asshole like you."

"I don't think you wanna make me mad."

"I won't. I'll just walk away with Wren and we'll never see you again." I turned to walk away.

"Hey get back here!" He turned me back towards him. He swung at me, but I ducked just in time. I stood up and punched him in the jaw. He stumbled backwards, holding his face. He tried to swing again, but I dodged it and punched him again. Some guys ran up and pulled him back, letting Wren and I get away.

"Thank you so much," she said stumbling out the door. I wrapped an arm around her waist holding her up.

"No problem. Do you need a ride home?"

"Yeah." I took her to my car and buckled her in. She was going to pass out in any minute.

"Hey can you tell me where you live?"

She started mumbling, but then her eyes closed and I knew she fell asleep.

I took her to my house, getting weird looks from the guys when I walked in. I went to my room and carefully set Wren on the bed. She woke up and told me she wasn't comfortable in her clothes. She stripped down to her underwear then got under the covers and fell back asleep. I smiled, I barely knew her but she was still beautiful. I turned the lights off and walked down the stairs.

"What was that about?" Zach asked.

"This guy was harassing her and she asked me for help. I tried to take her home, but the guy had drugged her and she passed out."

"Jack the hero," Jonah laughed.

*End of Flashback*

"S-so we didn't-" 

"No. I'd never take advantage of you like that."

"T-thank you, Jack."

"Of course."

"Seriously. You don't even know me, and you welcomed me into your house," she laughed softly.

"I didn't want you to end up with that guy."

Wren's P.O.V.

As Jack started to explain what happened, it all came back to me. I remember Alex and all that he said to me to make me believe that he was sweet and different from other guys. I looked over at Jack and saw the cute smile on his face. I swooned for a second, then snapped out of it. Jack was probably just like Alex.
