Recap.........(Ethan's POV)
Ten minutes later someone knocked on the door. Wow that was fast, I honestly thought I wouldn't be arrested until tomorrow. I trudged to the door and pulled it open expecting to see a couple of police officers. Instead Lia was standing there shaking slightly, her eyes red from crying, her beautiful face still wet with tears.

Chapter 15
Aaliyah's POV
As soon as he opened the door I couldn't breathe. He was standing there looking at me shocked, I had no idea what to say so I burst into tears again. He pulled me into a hug and shut the door behind me while I clung to him. I can't believe he would do that for me, and now he was going to get into trouble or something for it and then he'd be out of my life again. I couldn't stand the thought of not seeing him everyday, it was tearing me up inside, this was the exact reason I begged him not to go after Ben.
He pulled out of the hug and wiped my tears away with his thumbs, as he pulled his hand back I noticed that two of his fingers were strapped together and all of his knuckles were red and sore looking. Oh crap he got hurt! I grabbed his hand "Ethan! Shit your hands" I said my voice barely more than a whisper. I can't believe he got hurt, stupid damn boy!
"They're fine Lia, are you ok? I'm sorry, I didn't think about it but your parents could say something to Johnny now, he could find out you know me" he said looking at me apologetically. What the hell is he apologising to me for? Is that some kind of joke? Yeah if Johnny found out it would be hard, but he'd just gone and sorted all of my problems and got himself hurt in the process and he thinks he needs to apologise for it? Jeez he really is crazy!
"What can I do to help your hands? Do you need to go to the hospital or something? Shall I get some ice?" I asked having no idea at all how I could help. Jeez I'm so pathetic I don't even know the basic first aid.
"No they're fine I promise, come in, are you ok?" he asked pulling me into the lounge. I nodded and plopped down onto the sofa next to him. I was still in a state of shock that my parents now believed me. As soon as I hung up the phone from him I'd told Johnny that Becca needed me and rushed out of the house to come here. I barely even had time to process anything I just needed to come and make sure that Ethan was ok in case the police came.
"What happened?" I asked quietly not really needing to ask. Ethan would have beat the crap out of Ben, that much was obvious from his sore hands.
He shrugged, "I told him to stay away" he said uncomfortably.
I laughed humourlessly, "Yeah do much talking tough guy?" I asked teasingly stroking my fingertips over his sore knuckles.
He laughed too, "No actually" he said looking at me as if he was waiting for me to freak out or something and tell him that violence was wrong. Hell there was no way I was saying that to him, I had honestly dreamt of Ethan kicking Ben's ass for years, I was a little sorry I missed it actually.
