LAINA'S POV

I hear Sam come into the house and I start hyperventilating. I look to Kian who is trying to hide his nervousness. He smiles at me sympathetically and mouths "we'll be right in there."

I nod slightly and stand up. Sam comes over to me and hug me tight and firm with absolutely no love. "Hey Laina." he says and let's go.

"Sam, can we talk?" I say more quietly than I intended.

He nods and we walk up the stair to my bed room. I sit him down, my palms are sweating.

"Sam-"

"Laina if you're going to break up with me I swear to God."

"Sam I can't do this anymore! You don't love me! You don't love me! You don't appreciate me! I want to feel loved. I want to be appreciated. I'm going home in 2 weeks. I can't stay in this jail cell anymore. I can't." Tears were flooding out of my eyes. Sam walked toward me. he brought a hand to my face, not to wipe my tears, but to hit me.

After his one punch I was out.

KIAN'S POV

I hear Sam storm down the stairs. "Sam!" I yell and follow him.

"Kian you may want to check on Laina." Sam said with a smirk and left the house.

I run upstairs and scream her name. I open her door and she lie there. I call 9-11 and try to stop the bleeding.

"Please stay with me Laina."

LAINA'S POV

I woke up with bright lights flashing around me and a huge headache.

"Kian..." I whisper looking around the room for him.

He comes up to my bed. He reaches his hand out to touch me but I flinch and his motion. Tears come to my eyes and I try to blink them away.

"I'm going to call the doctor in." Kian whispers and kisses my forehead.

"Well hellllloooooo Ms. Scaltes, took quite the fall haven't we?" A beautiful women comes into the room and asks me. She checks all my vitals and tells me I can then go home.

When we get home Kian and I sit in the living room.

"Laina I'm sorry for what he did." Kian says trying to console me. I nod and lift my feet up to my chest and hold them there.

"Kian?" I whisper with my voice shaking.

"Yes Laina?"

"Let's go upstairs." He picks me up bridal style and I start laughing. "Kian I have legs."

"But you're not very good at using them," he says and clicks the up arrow on the elevator.

We get upstairs and he starts to go into my room. "Kian, please not in there." I whisper and start trembling.

"Let's go in my room then. I'll make you some tea and you can watch Netflix on my computer and start feeling better..."

"Kian no. I just want to be with you." I whisper softly.

"Okay, then we'll sleep?" He asks and chuckle. I feel him laugh under me and his steady breathing lulls me to sleep.

He puts me down on his bed and he opens his dresser and throws some of his pajamas at me.

"No peeking." I say and wink.

We both slip off our clothes and on some pajamas. I'm sliding on Kian's pants and he says "Nice underwear." I throw a pillow at him.

We get into his bed and he hugs me.

"Laina, do you remember when you first came here. Before you and Sam were together? And we had our romance?"

"Kian of course. That was the last time someone actually cared about me."

Kian kept talking but I was so tired I fell asleep.
