Rocks were hitting your window. You rubbed your eyes, looking at your alarm clock to see what time it was. The time read 12:34 am.

You sighed and got out of bed, slowly making your way to your window. When you pulled back the curtain, a familiar blonde haired boy came into view.

You smiled down at him before going downstairs to unlock your front door. When he came into view, your smile immediately faded. You gasped as you saw the cuts and bruises on his face.

"JJ..." you whispered holding your hand out to softly touch his face. "What happened?"

"I didn't know where else to go," JJ spoke quietly holding back tears. This didn't answer your question, but you decided to let it go for now.

You grabbed his hand and led him upstairs to the bathroom.

"Sit," you demanded pointing to the counter. He listened and jumped up onto the counter, sitting and waiting for what you were going to do next. JJ watched as you grabbed a wet towel, alcohol, and bandages.

"No," he said quickly about to jump down.

"Calm down you baby, it'll only sting a little," you responded, putting your hand on his chest to keep him from jumping off the counter. He stared at you and sighed before letting you continue.

You stood between his legs looking him directly in the eyes. His blue eyes have never looked so broken. Seeing him this way hurt you more than anything. You reached your hand up and gently began to wipe away the blood on his lip and eyebrow. He winced when you cleaned it with alcohol.

"Shit," he mumbled as he winced.

"Sorry," you apologized as you quickly finished.

You stared at him for a moment. "Take off your shirt," you said softly.

"Hey now, isn't that a second base kind of thing?" He teased raising one eyebrow.

"Shut up," you shot back rolling your eyes.

He smiled at you and began to slowly take of his shirt. Your heart sank as the bruises on his torso came into view. As tears threatened to slip, you stopped them. You cleaned them gently and put bandages over the large cuts.

You stepped away from him, putting up the alcohol and bandages. When you turned back to face him he was already staring at you. You slowly made your way back over to him. You stopped about a foot away from him.

"What happened," you asked again, hoping to get an answer.

He dropped his head and ran his hands through his hair without saying anything. He looked back up at you. He reached out his arms gripped your waist and slowly pulled you towards him. You were now in between his legs again, only inches from his face.

"Was it your dad?" You asked quietly.

He only nodded as his hands came up to cup your face.

"I'm sorry.." you began but JJ cut you off.

"Don't you dare apologize for my dads actions. He's an asshole Y/n, he's never going to change."

"I am sorry JJ. I'm sorry that you have to have a shit father, and I'm sorry that I can't do anything to help."

"You do help me," he said bringing you closer to him. "Y/n, how can you say you don't help me after you just tortured me with rubbing alcohol?" He said laughing slightly.

You laughed softly as you began to cry. You looked up at him staring into his deep blue eyes. Both of you slowly closed the gap between you, connecting your lips. It was so soft and tender, completely opposite of how you thought kissing JJ would be like. You felt butterflies erupt in your stomach, making you smile into the kiss. He chuckled at you once he saw the huge smile that was your face.

"You're so beautiful, Y/n," JJ stated boldly as he scanned your body.

"Are you just now realizing that?" You joked while wrapping your arms around his torso.

"Definitely not," he breathed out going in for another kiss. You happily kissed him back.

"This means I can stay the night right?" JJ asked while smirking.

"Duh stupid," you say with a laugh. You pulled away from him, grabbed his hand, and pulled him out of the bathroom.
