He kneels in front of me and caresses the side of my head with his thumb, resting his other hand on my knee. "May I?" He asks and I nod. I feel his hot breath on my neck as he tugs down the hem of my shirt to examine the bruises on my shoulder. He lets go of my shirt, and I was on fire with every touch. "Say the word, and I'll beat him up again," He grits through his teeth. "Don't," I soothe. Our lips were mere centimeters apart and I feel my heart jump out of my chest. He delicately pushes the hair away from my face, and I stare right into his dark brown eyes.

I'm running, my dress bunched up in my fists. But I'm not running for my life I'm running for his, and when I see him I stop. There is one bulky man on either side of him, they have their arms linking his, he's kneeling in front of someone with raven black hair. As we get closer, I see his pain in the way he's holding himself, his brown hair is clouding his face. Something catches in my throat as I see him bent forward, almost looking limp. The panic is slowly eating me up on the inside. 'Please lift your head, let me see your eyes' I pray inside my head. He can't be gone. It's almost like he hears my prayers as he looks up, his blue eyes as deep as the ocean depths, knocks the breath out of me as per usual. I close my eyes and thank God for keeping him alive. The right side of his jaw is all purple and red. A cut on the other side of his face, which is oozing with the red liquid. He suddenly looks past the black haired male to look at us, reassurance washing over his features. It's when he sees me that his eyes widen, and the panic grows by the second. He goes from a slump to picking himself upright. He's hurt. Badly. The black haired man spins around as we walk closer in their direction. All 6 of us stop as I catch a glimpse of the face. A deadly grin appears on his wicked face. "Boys, I've been waiting for you" He shouts loud and clear.
