My bad boy neighbor is good? (Incomplete)

Chapter 7: "My" Lily?

Lily's POV

Brent's knuckles were turning white as he gripped the steering wheel and stared angrily at the road in front of him. It was quiet the whole time we were in the car.

We pulled up to the driveway in front of his house.

He slammed the steering wheel and sighed

One minute

Two minutes

"Would you care to explain" he said after taking a few breaths, trying to calm himself. From the corner of my eyes I could see him put his hand up. I closed my eyes tight and curled up against the car door. I felt his hand pull the back of neck back up and before I knew it his lips crashed onto mine, synching perfectly. When I felt his tongue lick my lips asking for entrance I put both my hands on his chest and pushed his hard chest away, he wouldn't budge but I couldn't just give in. I pushed harder barely getting him off me as I reach for the door handle and open it. I felt his hand hold my wrist as I got up.

"I'm so sorry lily, I-I don't know what came over me" all the anger from his voice was now replaced by regret.

I snatched my hand out of his grip and ran out of the car. Freeze. I stopped dead in my tracks as i saw my aunt walk out of her house about to turn to face me after locking her house. She definitely was not drunk. It was the first time I ever saw her normal and not drunk in years. Before I could turn around and run, for a second and only for a second our eyes met. I turned and ran as fast as I could away from her.

Brent's pov

"Would you care to explain" My words came out harsher than intended. I put my hands up in surrender as I was about to tell her I have no right over where she was or what she was doing. until I saw her flinch and curl up away from me. She thought I was going to hit her. What?, I would never hurt her. I didn't know what to do. I did something even I never thought I would. I kissed her, it felt so perfect, better than any of those sluts I was ever with.

Before I knew it she pulled away and pushed the door open. It hurt, why was I hurt, it was just another girl. Why should I fuss over something petty like that.

"I'm so sorry lily, I-I don't know what came over me" I never apologized to anyone before, what was I doing?! My eyes ran down to my hand which was holding her wrist. I immediately loosened my hold and she pulled out of it.

What did I just do?! First I kiss her then I apologize, way to be a pussy Brent. I slammed the steering as hard as I could to let my anger out. What bugged me the most was she thought I was going to hit her, I would never lay a hand on a girl. Especially lily, she was so innocent and kind

The only girl who could make my heart melt.

Wtf Brent, what are you saying?!

I slid the door open and got out. When I turned to lily she was practically frozen. I followed her eyes to where she was looking to see Mrs. Jennings locking her front door. I looked back at lily and saw the fear in her eyes. She turned around and ran not caring where she was off to. Her aunt was yelling something at her and without looking at her I knew she was going after lily. Something told me that I couldn't let her aunt get to her No Matter What.

Lily ran around the corner by the time I went after her with Mrs. Jennings behind me. Damn was lily running fast, I paced myself to get closer and lose her aunt but her aunt didn't seem like she was going to give up.

We reached a nearly deserted street with barely any light, I could tell that Lilly's legs were giving up as she got slower. I took the chance to catch up to her, I sped up and was only meters away from her. Once I was close enough I reached out for her elbow and tugged on it, bringing her back around and into my full reach. when she turned my eyes became moist, my eyebrows creased.

Her face was wet with tears, her eyes were shut tight, not wanting to open and see what was in front of her.

"Please, please let me go" she pleaded, her knees falling to the ground. "I'm sorry, I won't do it again, just don't hit me." She begged, sobbing.

"L-Lily open your eyes it's me, Brent" by now tears were streaming down my face.

Her sobs became lower and she looked up at me, as a tear dropped from her eye. She wrapped her arms around me and continued to cry, into my shirt. I swear I'm going to kill whoever did this to my lily. Wait. Did I just say "my" lily?

My eyes shot open when I heard panting from the corner of the street. Thank god it was dark.

I got up with lily and looked around. Taking no more time I walked into a ally at the right of us

A little deeper in the ally there was a dumpster. I took lily behind it and curled up to the side of it. She immediately wrapped her hands around me as I did the same. I felt her shiver from under me. She silently cried into the nape of my neck, her tears soaking my shirt. Her breathing was uneven, seeing her in this state made me furious! who would dare lay a hand on lily! I wasn't going to spare who put her in this condition.

"It's going to be alright" I whispered into her ear. "shhhh"

"YOU..." Lily jumped from her aunts cruel voice, her eyes wide open and her hand digging into my shoulder. I ignored the pain in my shoulder and brought Lilys head back to my level. Her eyes trailed off, not looking into my eyes. I searched her face, but all i saw was fear. "BETTER COME OUT BITCH, WHEN I FIND YOU YOU'RE DEAD!!" she spat. Lily flinched, her hair tangled in my fingers as I brought it down to my chest. .

Ignoring Mrs.jennings yelling I focused on clamping lily down. Whew. I heard her aunts voice fade alone with footsteps.
