Julia's POV

Harry raped me... Harry fucking raped me... What is Liam going to think? What is Liam going to do. Thats all I could think about as I sit in a fetal position on Liams bed rocking back in forth. I was mortified. I couldn't function. I just sat there. I couldnt get the feeling of Harry's lips on my neck out of my head. I used to love that.. I couldn't stand the feeling now.. I slowely got up off of the bed and made my naked body function enough to make it to the bathroom in one piece.

When I finally made it, my legs were shaking so I held onto the edge of the sink to help keep my balance. I looked at myself in the mirror. I looked down at my breasts. Their were little red, black, and blue marks from where Harry had sucked roughly on them. I looked like completely and utter shit.

"Ha. Guess it matches the way I feel" I said to mirror me. My voice didnt even sound like my own.. There were streaks of mascara run down my face from all the tears that escaped my eyes a few hours ago. As soon as Harry was done with me, he kissed my forehead, whispered he loved me in my ear, put his clothes back on and walked out of the door and out of the house.

I turned around so I wouldnt have to look at my horrible reflection any longer. I hobbled over to the shower, slid open the curtain, turned the water on hot and got in. (Note she was already naked) As soon as I stepped in and the hot water hit me, most of the pain was scalded away by the burning heat. I could still feel his hands traveling up and down my body. I sat down in the shower and just let the scalding water burn the memories of the hours before while the tears ran down my face one again.

Liams POV

After not finding Harry at the hospital, Instead of heading straight back to my flat where Julia was, I decided to go get her something from the jewelry shop about an hour away. I couldn't get Jewels out of my head. She may drive me crazy somedays but I dont think I could love her anymore than I already do. I have loved her since the 9th grade when I moved here. She is still as beautiful as the day I laid eyes on her. As cliche as that sounds,  its the truth. I literally fell in love with her at first sight.

Once I had gotten to the shoppe, I walked in and went straight to the ring section. Yes I know what you are thinking. No im not proposing to her. Yet anyways. *mental wink* I truthfully love her enough to propose but with all the Harry shit going on, I dont think she is ready just yet. I asked the clerk behind the ring counter if they had any silver bands. I want to give her a ring as a promise, a promise ring if you may, a promise that she will always be my forever, no matter what.

"In fact we do Sir. Would you like it engraved?" The clerk asked.

"Yes Sir,  could you engrave it with the saying "Today, Tomorrow, Forever"?" I asked.

"Sure thing. It should be ready in about an hour." He answered and grabbed a silver band from underneath the counter and walked into the back.

I walked out of the store and had the thought of one more present for Jewels.

"That's perfect!" I whisper yelled to myself.

*One hour later* (note sponge bob voice over)

I walked back into the jewelry shop after my little expedition for the second present, paid for the ring, and walked out with a successful smirk on my face.

"Oh Jewels. If this doesnt make you happy I don't know what will" I said to myself.

I drove the hour back to my flat with the biggest smile on my face the entire way.

Once I reached my flat I picked up the present from the back seat with the ring on a chain around it. I opened the front door and heard the shower running so I walked up stairs and power walked into my room. That's when I heard the crying. I set down the present on my bed and jogged up to my bathroom door.

"Jewels? Love? Its me. Liam. Are you alright?" I asked. No answer. I twisted the knob that to my suprise was unlocked. I could see her shadow through the shower curtain and saw her sitting down with the steam circulating out of the top of the shower. I started to sweat a little as soon as I walked in it was so hot.

"Baby? Im right here. Whats wrong?" I asked as I slowely moved the curtain out of the way. Thats when I saw the bruises and hickeys all down her chest and thighs.

"Love? What happened?" I questioned as I softly put one arm under her legs and the other under her arms.

"H-H-Harr-ry r-raped meee." She cried into my chest. I don't know how long she was sitting in that burning shower but her back was burned slightly. Not too bad but bad enough to hurt..

"He did what?!" I whisper yelled not wanting to scare her. I carried her into the bedroom forgetting all about the presents I had bought her. As I walked back in, one of the presents barked.

"What was that?" She asked and looked up from my chest. Sitting on my bed patiently was a West Highland White Terrior wagging its tail. Even through the tears and hurt, I could still see the happiness shine bright in her eyes.

"Aww Liam. He's so cute" She laugh cried.

"I got him for you. I figured we could name him Chance. Yes I know its a little cliche but everyone loves a little but of that in their lives." I spoke gently to her. I sat her down on the bed softly while Chance trotted over to her and sniffed her up.

"Chance, sit." I commanded. The pup did as I said while I walked over to one of my drawers and grabbed a pair of boxers and one of my t-shirts. Then I walked over to the bathroom and grabbed a towel before shutting off the shower from before. I rushed back over to her and gently dried her off then helped her get dressed as Chance sat there watching. When I was done dressing her, she had regained her balance a little better and walked over to the other side of the bed where she sat down and patted the space next to her for me. I kicked off my shoes, and practically tore off my shirt and pants. Before climbing in next to her I turned on the lamp next to my bed then turned off the overhead light. When I walked back over I caught her looking at the ring attached to Chance's coller.

"Liam. Whats this?" She asked with a smile on her face.

"Its a promise thats what it is. Its a promise to always protect you from now on. To never leave you again. To love you no matter what happens." I said as I climbed in next to her and Chance while she beamed at me. She leaned over and kissed me. When she pulled away the happiness was still there but there was a tinge of sadness.

"Love. Dont worry. Harry will pay for what he did. He will never get away with it. Not with my Jewels." I said as she curled up next to me while Chance nudged his way in between both of us.

"I love you Liam. Please dont ever leave me again. I promise I will never leave you" She whispered into my chest.

"I promise Julia. I love you too." With that I shut off the lamp and we both fell asleep but with me planning a horrible revenge on Harry for ever touching her in the first place. He will not get away with it if I have something to do with it.
