Without You

Part 18 "I'm going to beat his ass!"

"This beaut' right here" Izzy mocks Luke in the deepest voice she could manage.

Olivia squeals for the tenth time in the matter of three minutes and the never ending blush currently on my face grows hotter once again.

"That was just too good," Izzy sighs happily.

Izzy pulls into the driveway of a big pretty house.

Why does everyone here have such gorgeous houses?

I got out the car and saw quite a few people drinking and talking outside. I heard loud music coming from the inside and from what I can tell through a semi-open window is that there are people dancing and drinking in there too.

I've never been to a party this crazy before.

The house is a dark tan color with black shudders on all of its many windows; lower floor and upper floor. He's got an attached garage that looks like it's apart of the house. He also has a porch that wraps around half of his house.

We walk right into the front door and I see a lot of people talking with drinks in their hands and quite a few people dancing with each other.

Soon after that whole ordeal with Luke, him and Eli left to get ready and take showers in the locker rooms. I can't help but wish he was here.

I don't know why though.

The girls and I walk through the people and into a big kitchen where drinks cover the counter tops.

Izzy goes straight for the drinks and Olivia stays back with me. After Izzy gets her drink fix, we get separated as we step back out the kitchen into the large crowd.

As soon as I turn the corner, walking out the kitchen, I slam into someone.

Arms wrap around my shoulders and I'm met with a shirt that smells like alcohol. I cringe at the smell and look up.

Liam is staring right back down at me with a lazy smirk.

He's definitely drunk.

"S-sorry," I say and try to pull away from his hold, feeling a little bit uncomfortable.

"uh, uh, uh, you're not going anywhere," he slurs and my heart begins to race.

I look back at Izzy and Olivia with frantic eyes as I try shoving him away from me. Olivia is trying to shove people out of the way to get to me and Izzy is looking around the crowd for something. 

"Damn, you look so fine," he licks his lips and I feel his hands travel down my back and to my waist. I grab his hand my waist and I attempt to pry it off. 

"Liam, please stop. You're drunk." I tell him with the strongest voice I can manage.

"Yeah? So what? I want your body," he pulls me closer against his body and I feel tears burn at the back of my eyes. I bring my elbows in front of me to get some more distance in between us but he shoves them out of the way. 

I hear Olivia shouting from behind me but all I'm focused on is the fact that he has moved his hands down to my thigh and pushed me against the wall.

"You're so fucking hot," he bends his head down towards my neck but before his lips make contact, he's ripped away from me and thrown onto the floor.

I look up through my teary eyes and see Luke pulling Liam off the ground by his shirt and up into the air.

Luke shoves him into the wall across from me and the whole place goes silent.

"I swear to God Liam, you just fuckin' love trying me. Don't ever touch her. Got it?" Luke shoves him harder into the wall.

"But when you're done with her, give her to me," Liam says before receiving a powerful punch to the face, knocking him out cold.
