Chapter 4-

Lorenzo's POV

Liliana was starting to pass out. I quickly run into the house yelling for my mother. She quickly enters and gasps.

"Mamma, this is Liliana. She is starting to pass out. She landed really hard on her back, hit her head, got punched in the side quite a few times, and her jaw is still purple and swollen from her streetfight yesterday. And before you ask, yes she is a streetfighter. Oh, and Adrien and her best friend, Juliana will be arriving shortly. Now, I'm going to clean her up. I just wanted to let you know."

My mother nods and says, "Okay. Take her to your room. I'll bring in some wraps, towels, bowl of warm water, and some aspirin."

I nod my head and quickly take her to my room. I lay her down as gently as I could and quickly change into some basketball shorts and run back to her. My mother came in and gave me everything and left.

I take the cloth and dip it into the water and ring it out before cleaning the blood off her face. By the time I finish cleaning the blood off of her face, the water was all red and dirty. I dump the water into the sink in my bathroom and add warm water.

I head back into my bedroom and start gently placing warm water on her side so the pain should lessen. She is half-in half-out of conciousness. I wrap the white gauze around her sides. I check her head to see if there was any blood, there wasn't so that's good.

Juliana knocks and then enters.

"Hey, I was wondering if I could change her real quick so, she could be comfy?" Juliana asks.

"Oh, of course. I'll go talk to Adrien. Come grab me when you're done." I then head out and find Adrien.

"How is she?"

"She's alright. Besides having a sore jaw, sides wrapped, and a killer headache she's doing pretty good. She did pretty damn good against him."

"Ya. It looked like she was definitely trying to prove something to someone there. Maybe herself but, she had so much determination that I would have been scared shitless going against her."

"Ya. She has that about her. I really like her. She's so different from everybody else. There's something about her that I can't figure out. I can't get her out of my head."

"I know what you mean, man. I do."

"Want to explain?" I ask Adrien.

"Nope. You'll find out later."

I nod my head and that's when Juliana steps into the room. She also changed into comfy clothes.

"She's good to go. I also gave her some aspirin. She's awake. She would like to talk to you." I nod my head and tell her thank you before heading upstairs again to my bedroom.

I walk in to see Liliana sitting up in my bed with my comforter covering her legs. "How are you feeling, Liliana?" I ask her.

"I'm feeling good. Thank you for helping me. Will I be sleeping here?" Liliana asks so sweet.

"Yes. I will be sleeping in the guest room. Rest up. If you need me, just yell my name. I'll be able to hear you." I say walking up to her and giving her a light kiss to her forehead. As I go to leave, she grabs my arm.

"Stay, please. I'm pretty sure I am going to have nightmares."

"Nightmares about what?"

"Nightmares about Chris."

"Who is Chris, Liliana?" I ask gently.

"Chris is the one who used to abuse me. Every night, he used to say that I did at least one thing wrong. One day, it was so bad. Chris never drank. He came back drunk and he grabbed my neck and threw me against the wall.

He kicked me till I started coughing up blood. He then grabbed my hair pulling me up and grabbed my neck. He continued to squeeze and squeeze till I could feel the pressure building up. I didn't want to pass out. I was too scared about what was going to happen to me if I passed out.

Boss broke down the door after hearing him yell and me scream. He called the cops and beat the shit out of Chris. He's locked up but, he might be getting released soon." By the time she finished saying that I was already holding her in my arms and she was crying.

"It's okay. You're safe now. Nothing is going to happen to you. Do you still want me to stay? I can grab Juliana if you would like?"

"No, please stay with me. You make me feel safe. Besides, Juliana wants her alone time with Adrien. I can easily tell, haha." She smiles slightly. I nod my head and walk to the other side of the bed and take off my basketball shorts leaving me in my boxer briefs.

Liliana lays down and I carefully bring her back to my chest and wrap my arm around her. She cuddles into me more before drifting off to sleep. I then noticed that she is only wearing my white t-shirt and her black lacy underwear. Juliana put her hair into a bun. She looks so cute. I could stare at her all night. She looks so peaceful and everytime she says my name, I just want to kiss her.

"Good night Lorenzo." I didn't even realize she was till awake.

"Good night Liliana." I give her head another feather kiss before drifting off to sleep myself.

Good night.

"They look so cute!" My mother says.

"Yes, they do. I approve of her. She makes him look so relaxed and oh gosh. He is cuddling her. This is sooo cute!" Rosa says.

CLICK!

The sound of her phone camera going off. I hear more people coming into my room. Right now, I don't care. I had Liliana in my arms. I tug her closer to me softly.

"Omg, Liliana never cuddles with anyone. He really is making her open up. They really are changing each other." Juliana says.

"Slowly but surely." Adrien says.

"Do you think they might get married one day?" My mother asks Rosa, Juliana, and Adrien.

No response. I am going to assume they nodded by the choice of their words. I then hear the shuffling of feet leaving my room and the door soon closes. Liliana is still asleep. I don't want to leave the bed but, I should be getting dressed. I slowly unwrap my arms from around her waist and sit up.

"Lorenzo?" Liliana's morning voice is so sexy.

"Yes, Liliana. Is everything alright?" My voice is deeper than normal because I just woke up.

"Yes, I was just wanting to ask you something." She says shyly.

"And what would that be, tesoro?"

"Tesoro, really? Anyways, I was wondering if we could cuddle some more. I can't fall back asleep without your arms around me."

"You know italian? And I wouldn't mind cuddling some more at all. Come here." I hold out my arms and she crawls closer and rests her head on my chest and wraps her arms me.

"Yes, I do speak italian. I don't very much anymore because Juliana speaks spanish. So, I speak spanish with her sometimes."

I nod my head and we both lay down again.

Good night. Again.
