____________________________________________________________________________________

You should have seen me last night,

Working the room had their chests going tight,

I got a theory, all I need is one drink.

I've got you breathing all heavy and deep,

Gasping for air and down on your knees,

You're in love, but for as only as long as you're wanted.

~Kate~

"Enjoy your weekend and don't let Jamie ruin your happy mood when he comes over," Sarah smiled, It was finally Friday and college had finished forever and she was dropping me home. "I will you have a good one too and I wont." "Enjoy Dan too..." she giggled as I got out the car. Once I was inside I dumped my baag and checked my phone, there was a message from Dan, which made me grin like a cheshire cat:

Hey is it okay if I pick you up at 5? xx

I looked up at the clock on the wall it was 4.30, shit I only had half an hour to be ready:

Yeah can't wait to see you xx

I ran upstairs and started throwing clothes, make up, jewelry, shampoo and the 'killer' little black dress I had bought on Wednesday, it had beautiful emerald and black jewels encrusted over the breast and down to my midriff. I hoped Dan would like it since it cost me £50. I wrote a note for my mum to say I would be back on Monday and left it on the counter where the money she'd left out for me had been. Altogether I had £100 which should definately be enough.

It was quarter to five when there was a loud knock on the door, my heart skipped a beat, Dan was early, I opened the door enthusiastically realising it wasn't him, it was Jamie. I had completely forgot he was coming. "Can I come in then?" he asked a sly smirk on his face- I was not looking forward to this. Seeing him made me realise that despite how much pain he'd caused me I still had feelings for him, I could never imaginne loving anyone as much as I loved Jamie. I moved out the way allowing him in, he shut the door after him, "Why? Why Olivia? I asked without thinking. "I dont know Kate, what do you want me to say?" "The truth," I heard my phone ringing upstairs I ran to get it, he followed me. "She's hot and I wanted some fun," he was still smirking, did I really mean that little to him? "Fun? Was I not fun enough for you?" I asked barely containing my rage, I didn't let him answer, "I loved you Jamie and I thought you loved me too but I guess I was wrong. I wish I'd never met you!" I screamed tears forming in my eyes. "I just feel different with Olivia, I wish i'd realised that when I first met her- I used to love you but nto as much as I love her." not once did he apologise, not once did he actually look like he cared. I slapped him, "You bastard." This made him angry, he'd always had a temper but i'd never seen him like this. "You little bitch!" he shouted grabbing my hair and pinnning me face first against the wall, I screamed. "Get off me, Jamie please," Tears finally escaped from my eyes, I was terrified, what if he killed me? "Stop screaming you stupid whore, never slap me again, who the fuck do you think you are?" he questioned slamming my head against the wall again, I whimpered. I felt the blood trickling down the side of my face, I heard the doorbell, I tried to push him off me to push him off me so I could run and get it but he was too strong. "You dare even think about fighting back," he growled- I had loved a monster. "HELP! HELP!" I screamed causing Jamie to slam my face against the wall again, "Calm down and i'll let you go," I stopped struggling, I heard a loud crash from downstairs, who is in my house? I thought as Jamie flung me onto my bed, he slapped me across the face, causing me to cry out in pain. "I hate you!" I screamed in his face as I leaped from the bed. He raised his arm as if to punch me, the punch never came, Jamie was being restrained. Not caring who had saved me I fell against my bed, defeated, and started sobbing violently, my whole body shaking from the pain that laced across my forehead. "Get off me, who the fuck do you think you are? This has nothing to do with you," Jamie shouted at the guy. "This is my business and who do you think you are beating up a girl you disgust me," shouted a voice I recognised as Dan's. "Dan," I whispered but when I forced my eyes open he was gone along with Jamie.

I continued to cry, "Kate oh my god, are you okay?" he asked wen he re-entered five minutes later, his voice soothed me. He examined my face. "Yeah I think, my head... My head hurts," my tears were less now but my body was unable to stop shaking, Dan looked like he was crying slightly too. "I know its bleeding a lot, do you have a first aid kit?" he asked stroking my arm, he looked in pain too, I hoped Jamie hadn't hurt him. "Yeah in the kitchen, i'm so sorry you had to see that Dan.. so sorry, he didn't hurt you did he?" I started to cry again, he hugged me tightly, "Don't be sorry, he didn't hurt me, I'm just glad I was here to help you so don't blame yourself- it wasn't your fault. I thought you were unconcious the way you fell back on the bed," he said wiping away me tears before carrying me to the kitchen. He put me down on the kitchen bench, "First aid kit?" "In that draw over there," I gestured toward the draw next to the sink. "So that was the infamous Jamie, I hate him, how could he do this to you? Why was he even here?" he questioned. "Thats Jamie, he's been off all week so we arranged to talk today," i sighed blocking the images of him pinning me against my wall. "Didn't look like he was talking to me," he said rumaging throught the first aid kit. "We did start off talking but then he hurt me so much that I slapped him forgetting how bad his temper can be." Dan started cleaning my wound whilst shaking his head, "He deserved it, he should  have taken it like a man not started hurting someone weaker than him. He was so lucky I didn't beat him to death, seeing him hurt you like that terrified me, is this the first time he's hit you?" Dan was going to think I was so stupid, "Once before, but he was drunk and apologised, I wish I'd never forgiven him," I looked away from Dan and hung my head in shame. "Hey its not your fault, being drunk was no excuse and you loved him so you forgave him. Kate he should have treasured you, you're amazing. Luckily your head looks like it will be okay, I wont need to take you to A and E" he smiled and kissed my forehead, his soft lips making me feel better. "I know I guess I was blinded by love, but i'm glad to be rid of him now." I smiled positively. "Daniel, thank you so much for saving me, god knows what he would have done to me." I bent forward and pecked him on the cheek. "I hate to think, god, Kate I will always save you." He was sweet, "And I will always save you too, we're a team!"

Suddenly my mum walked in, she stopped when she saw I was with a boy who wasn't Jamie- I hadn't told her- she probably saw my face too which would look a state. "Kate what is going on?" she asked dumping her bag on the kitchen table, Dan had jumped away from me and was now looking at my mother too. "I broke up with Jamie," I stated no longer feeling any pain at losing him. "Why when? What happened to your face?" she questioned looking between me and Dan in confusion, taking in his hand that was resting on mine. "Saturday before the gig he text me saying things were  over. Then I saw him kissing Olivia at the gig and I ran outside and met Dan," I nodded in Dan's direction, "he saved me." "Aww sweetie, Olivia did that? I can't believe her she's you best friend! Did you do this to her?" she turned to Dan, her eyes wide. "No mum, no, he didn't,, It was Jamie he got really angry and smashed my head against the wall. Dan saved me again and got rid of him." My mum looked shocked and shook her head, "Jamie did this? I think we'll have to call the police." Mum walked over and gave me a tight hug, "I hate him!" "I know you do darling, I know," she said before hugging Dan, "Thank you for looking after my baby, whats your name?" she said and released him. "Daniel, Daniel Flint and I will always look after your daughter," he said with sincerity whilst looking into my eyes. "Nice to meet you Dan are you staying for tea?" I jumped off the counter, "I bet he'd love to but we've gotta be going, unless you want to stay?" I asked him. "I would love to but I told my mum we'd be having tea with her, I havent seen her for a month." I gave my mum a hug as an apology I knew she'd want to get to know Dan. "Thats fine Kate you mentioned you were going away this weekend and it's nice to see a young man who loves his mum, have you been on holiday or something? And Kate i'm really glad you could ove on quickly," "No I've been touring with my band, the one Kate saw on Saturday and we're not dating- just friends," replied Dan going a shade of red, but confirming I had no chance with him, I wished he could be my boyfriend- I had really fallen for him. "Oh, what instrument do you play?" My mum said slightly embarassed too. "I play drums." "Cool, you guys must be cool considering she went to see 'her absolute favourite band'," she laughed, imitating me, I elbowed her. "I'm just going to get my bag from upstairs and then we'll be off." "Okay bye darling have fun, but not too much! I'd come and say goodbye but I must ring your Auntie Jem i've been putting it off too long, bye Dan nice to meet you." Dan and I cheered our goobyes before heading to get my stuff.

"Your rooms cool, I like the posters," he winked. "Thanks and you would since theres quite a lot of you and your band haha," let me die of embarassment now. "I noticed," he grinned taking my bags from me, "Ready to go?" "Yep, is your mum okay with me staying for tea?" I asked as we made our way out the house. "I told her to make enough for three, dont worry she'll love you." We got in his car this time which was really comfortable and made our way to Surrey.
