Stockholm Syndrome

Chapter 2

(Liam's P.O.V)

"Babe please?"

I was getting a little frustrated now, and she still didn't listen to me for about the fifth time.

Harry strut up to me and whined like a five year old to her, I just rolled my eyes, being annoyed with his attitude at the moment.

"Baby please..." He cried.

I huffed and shoved him back a little.

She opened up the door slowly and flung her arms around me.

I held her with one hand and put the other over her head.

Harry crossed his arms and I glared at him.

She wiped her eyes a little and held me once again.

I kissed her on the top of the head and didn't let go of her until I felt that her grip was loosened all of the way.

Harry growled and stomped off.

Jazz looked up at me and stood on her tippy toes as she tried to kiss me.

I bent down before she tried again and kissed her.

She smiled up at me and then her eyes trailed to the floor.

I frowned and tilted her chin back up.

She forced her head back down and pulled away from me.

"Jazz? What's wrong?"

I held onto her arm but she pushed me away.

"Everything's fine Liam. You just..."

I was clueless and said,"I just what?"

"You have to leave..."

"What? No, I-"

"Liam. Go..."

She pushed me gently away.

"Babe no I can't leave you here with Harry... And I can't let him touch you or be around you. He'll hurt you."

She smiled sweetly, but I could see the sadness in it.

"I know and I agree with you. It's just not the best time for you to be here right now. Bailee is still here with me, remember?"

I shook my head and pulled her into my arms.

She squirmed, but I managed to hold her still.

"She told me earlier that she wasn't strong enough to keep him away from you when she called me... And that's why she thought it would be good for me to come here and help out a little."

I shrugged and looked down, rubbing my arm.

She looked up and took a few steps closer.

I looked up too and hugged her.

She whispered, "Then maybe I could go home with you for the night?"

My heart skipped a beat and I grinned.

"Of course babe. You're always welcome at my place."

She kissed my cheek and said happily, "Great! I was going to spend the night here, but after the incident earlier,"

Her smile faded away and she tried to fake one this time.

"I would love to stay with you... And know that I'll be safe with you..."
