Noah and Elle One Shots (The Kissing Booth)

9. played her (pt.3)

Noah's p.o.v
I didn't get much sleep last night, mostly because my thoughts kept me awake. I was just worried about Elle.

I know I've hurt her a lot. I made a massive mistake bringing Grace back with me before, I don't even know why I said 'I love you' to her. It's the stupidest, most meaningless thing I've ever said. Jealousy took over me when Lee told Elle 'don't go to Warren'.

I want nothing more than to kill him for what he's done to Elle. Make him feel the pain that he's inflicted on her. I can't help but wonder that if I hadn't have been tempted by Grace and broken up with Elle, would any of this have happened? It's my fault she's in this abusive relationship, and I hate myself for causing this. I wish I could beat Warren and myself up for the hurt we've caused her.

My thoughts are interrupted when I feel Elle slowly moving in my arms, signaling that she's starting to wake up. I loosen my grip on her to allow her to move around slightly. Her eyes flutter open and she places her head back on my chest. Instinctively I tighten my grip on her once again. Neither of us say anything for a while, I think she just wants the comfort of someone being there for now. After a while of being in silence she looks up and softly smiles at me.
"Morning." I say quietly.
"Morning." Elle responds.
As she says this her hand moves up to move some hair that's fallen in front of my face. In doing so I see her arm clearer, noticing the marks left on it from Warren. I guess she noticed where my attention went to as she slowly says.
"It's okay."
"I'll kill him for what he's done to you." I protectively say.
"No you won't, I don't want you to. I want you to stay here with me. I'm scared of him Noah and having you here makes me feel safe."
I notice that as she's saying this tears are forming in her eyes. I pull her closer to me and whisper sweet things in her ear, reassuring her that I won't ever let Warren touch her again.

We spend another hour in bed before we get up. The majority of it was spent with me running my hands up and down Elle's back, giving her small kisses every so often, and holding her close to me. Eventually she reluctantly goes back to Lee after I tell her I promised my mom I'd 'run an errand for her'. I give her one last kiss before she heads off to Lee's room. I get on my motorcycle and drive to the only place that I need to go.

Once I arrive I harshly bang on the door. After a few moments his stupid face appears, a confused expression crosses his face.
"Who do you think you are?" I say.
"Flynn if here because your jealous of Elle and I then you're wasting your time. She's with me now." Warren states.
"You think I'm jealous. Why the fuck would I be jealous of you?"
"Because I'm Elle's boyfriend now. I'm the one who gets the hot sex with her." He smugly replies.

It takes all of my anger not to punch Warren right in the face. I know that before I can get to doing that, that there's a few things I'd like to say to him.

"Don't you ever disrespect her again. Don't think I don't know what you've done to her." I say moving closer to Warren.
"What exactly have I done to her?" He questions.
"If you put your hands on her again and leave another mark, I will fucking kill you."
"Are you accusing me of abusing Elle?" Warren says getting in my face.
"You and I both know you're abusing her. I've seen all the bruises you've caused. You think you're being clever right now, pretending to not know what I'm on about. Listen here, every bruise, cut and mark that's on her skin because of you is going to be on yours in a minute."
"You really are a player aren't you Flynn? You broke up with her for another girl, you're the one to blame. It's not my fault that she's broken and she can't take tough love." He says, his face right in front of mine.

I shake my head in disbelief at the jackass standing before me. A second later my fist connects with his face, and he stumbles backwards. He throws a punch back, which just results in another one being thrown by me. I knock him to the ground and continue to beat the shit out of him. After a while, and I'm satisfied that he's felt all the pain he caused Elle and worse, I get off him and pull him up.

"You ever lay a fucking hand on Elle again, I'll beat you up so much worse than this. You even look at her and you'll be back on the ground. Don't think that I'm not watching you, because the second you get cocky enough to go near her you'll be knocked out. Do you understand me?" I say whilst gripping his top.
He stays silent.
"I said do you understand me?" I scream at him.
Warren nods his head in response.
"Good." I say as I let go of him.
"Elle is off limits. I'm here now, and I'll make sure that if you go anywhere near her you'll be sorted out."
With that being said I turn around and get back on my motorcycle.

Once I return home I head straight to my room to get cleaned up. As I pass Lee's room, before mine, I hear Elle and Lee both laughing. I smile knowing she has the both of us here for her.

I will do everything to protect her.
I love her.
I will never forgive myself for the pain I caused her, but I will never hurt her again.
I just hope she knows that I everything I said and felt when we were together was genuine. Elle Evans has me wrapped around her little finger and I would do anything for her.
I just hope she know that I never played her.
