Amora's P.O.V.

Jack and I ran to the car.
"Hurry up and put it in drive omg!" I ran my fingers through my hair in a pure panic mode.
"Amora! Calm. Down." Jack said, "We can't go back if this is what is going to happen."
"Jack, this isn't a decision, we are going." I said.
"To be honest, the security could take care of it on their own--"
"JACK START THE DAMN CAR."
He did so and we left the park.
We got to the house and opened the doors.
Paul turned around, "Amora! I knew you were here!"
He started to come my way but Jack got infront of me.
"What the hell man? I'm her boyfriend!" Paul raised his voice.
"No. You are a drunk guy who thinks he owns a girl who did absolutely nothing to deserve this. She is amazing, beautiful, and deserves so much better than an abusive boy like you." Jack said, lowering his voice. He was so intimating and intense.
"Amy just tell him! Remeber? You are coming with me." Paul said gesturing for me to talk.
Jack reached his hand back to me without taking his eyes off Paul. I took his hand and stayed behind him, putting my head down. Jack raised one eyebrow.
"You can leave. Bwfoee things get ugly." Jack suggested.
Paul tried to punch Jack but he immediately moved myself and him out of the way, so that he punch the car door.
Paul let out a yell of pain.
Jack hurried me inside.
I pulled him in by his shirt and he closed the door.
"Holy crap you guys!" Daniel looked like he had a heart attack.
"S-sorry." I said.
"When will the security be here?" Jack asked in a hurry.
"In like five minutes." Jonah said.
"He's hella pissed." Jack said.
"Why Jack!" Zach facepalmed.
"Because he cares about Amora having justice. Huh." Corbyn said.
I looked at Jack, "Is that why we came back? So that you could tell him off?"
"You deserve justice. Not to be hit. Or, touched in anyway you wouldn't want to be." Jack said.
I reached for his hand and he pulled up my shirt to show a huge bruise near my belly button.
I quickly put it down.
"And you sure as hell deserve someone who won't hurt you like that."
I looked away.
"We, will give you guys a minute..." Daniel said slowly motioning the boys to go upstairs.
They left the room.
Jack took my hands and lifted my head up to meet his eyes, "You deserve the world."
Jack leaned in and kissed me.
"And I want to be apart of that world.." He said. My heart melted. I felt weak in my knees.
"Jack..I want you to be apart of my world too--"
BANG BANG
The front door was being banged on.
"Idiots!!!" There was yelling outside the door.
Jack quickly put me behind him. I looked over his shoulder.
The other boys ran the stairs and stood with us.
"Guys, you should just let me go with him, then none of you get hurt--" I started.
"You know I'm not doing that." Jack stood his ground.
"The security should be here." Jonah said.
"HEY NO! MY GIRLFRIEND IS IN THERE!" We heard yelling and hitting which probably meant the security took over.
Jack quickly turned around and hugged me, "I'm never leaving you."
I hugged him back, "Jack.."
"I swear I won't let him lay a hand on you, or ever come near you." He said. I could feel his heart beat get faster as he started tearing up, "Amora....
...
..
"I love you..."
Those three words saved me.
I hugged him tightly, "I love you too.."
He pulled out of the hug slightly and kissed me. He moved his hands up to my face and didn't break the kiss.
The front door opened and I stayed in Jack's arms as we turned to look at the door.
"You bastard you stole her!!!" Paul screamed, being held back by security.
Jack turned his body slightly away because I moved with it.
"You never had her!" Jack barked back.
"Why dont you guys all go upstairs." One of the security guards said.
The boys and I went upstairs.
I sat, cuddled up to Jack, nervously biting my nails as we waited for answers.
"Hey, don't stress." Jack rubbed my upper arm.
I looked down and Jack lifted my head to meet his eyes once more. He leaned my head to his and kissed me.
"Ok? Promise me?" Jack asked.
I nodded, "I'll try."
I laid my head on his shoulder, but lifted it when the door opened.
"It's taken care of." The man in the doorway said.
I stood up, "What's going to happen to him?"
"He's coming with us. You are welcome to go bacj to how you were." The man left the room but my nerves didn't leave.
I sat back down. Daniel and Jonah left the room.
"Corbyn!" Zach threw a pillow at him.
Corbyn turned around with a pure face of a psychopath.
Zach ran out of the room and Corbyn went after him.
I took a long sigh and rested my head on Jack.
"See? I told everything would be ok."  Jack whispered into my ear and wrapped his arms around me.
I smiled as I tilt my head so it rested on his.
"Jack?" I started to ask, "we just met a few hours ago, why would you risk your safety for me?"
Jack lifted his head and looked into my eyes, "Because."
He held my hands, "Because, I feel something with you. Something I have never truly felt before. Something that I can't let go of. I love you. And I can't let anyone hurt you."
He looked at my hands and then back at my eyes, "Amora, you are what I was missing."
I felt my body temperature heat up as he looked at my lips and then back at my eyes. He made me weak and fragile. I felt something with him too. But I was scared.
"Jack..." I looked down at our hands, "you deserve someone better then me. You are amazing, you are so talented, so funny, and gorgeous. You. Y-you are perfect. I'm just average, I work at a pet store for crying out loud."
I started to cry, "My dad works, comes home, sleeps, and goes again. I never see him. I lost my mom. I had an abusive boyfriend who tried to kill people that I love because I wouldn't love him. I was r-raped..I was beaten..Jack, I'm broken."
He wiped my falling tears away and brought me into a hug, "Amora, stop. Please.."
I could feel where his chin was start to get wet, which meant he was crying, "Amora, you may be brokem, you were hurt, alot, but I'm here. I'm now here for you. Talk to me, trust me, believe in me."
Our eyes meant again and he rubbed my cheek with his thumb and kept his hand to me. I put my hand to his.
"Amora, be my girlfriend.." Jack's voice was gentle and soft, "Please..?"
"Yes. Yes I'll be your girlfriend." I started to smile and gave a little laugh as he happily put my forehead to his and his smile grew ten times bigger.
He kissed me a few times and we stood up.
He jumped a little.
He calmed down, "Ok, Ok, talk to me."
We sat back down.
I talked about everything. Crying in his arms. He helped me. He comforted me.
I loved him.
