Jamie's POV

"Im gonna go freshen up a bit, I'll see you in a minute." I tell Noah, as I walk down the hallway, trying to find a bathroom.

This place is huge, how have I not seen one yet?

I push open one of the doors.

A bathroom! Finally!

I then see a girl begin to puke in the toilet and back away.

Never mind, I'll find a different one.

Gosh, that girl must've had something strong in her dri-- BAM!

I run right into what feels like a wall. I turn around quickly and realize it is in fact, not a wall, but a very muscular, very tall boy.

"I-I'm so sorry." I stutter.

I turn back around to leave, and attempt again to find a bathroom when a hand grabs my wrist.

"You can't run into me and leave just like that baby, you've gotta repay me somehow." The boy says with a sick smile on his face.

"I said I was sorry." I snap.

"Sorry ain't gonna cut it baby girl." He tells me, bringing a hand to my back.

"Let go of me." I say through clenched teeth.

His hand drops lower, "and why would I do that?"

"Because if you don't, I will do something that will make you regret not letting me go in the first place."

His hand grabs my butt and I gasp, "please," he scoffs, "tiny thing like you couldn't hurt me."

The boy starts bringing me closer, pulling me to him. I attempt to knee him but he quickly pins me to the wall.

"NOA---" I am cut off when he puts his mouth on mine and kisses me hard. His kisses are sloppy, nothing at all like how Noah kisses me. I can even taste the beer he was drinking. I cringe in disgust.

Tears begin to form in my eyes as I shudder.

I begin to shake but he keeps caressing my back, coming closer and closer to my body although there is already no space between us and he is literally on me, pressing his body to mine.

He takes the hand off my back, the other still massaging my ass, and covers my mouth, trailing kisses all over my face, catching my tears.

"HEY!" I suddenly hear a voice, and look over Creepy's shoulder to see Noah through my blurred vision.

His face is red and he looks absolutely pissed off.

"Get away from her!" He yells.

"Aw, look who came to save you baby girl." The boy whispers deeply in my ear.

"Or what?!" He then yells at Noah.

"Or you'll have me to deal with."

"Ohh I'm sooo scared." He mocks.

He presses another kiss on my lips, but this one is gentler. He lingers for a while before letting me go, turning to face Noah. I slide down the wall and cry into my arms, breathing hoarsely.

"I'm not scared of you, boy!" The kid yells at Noah, standing at least nine inches taller than him.

He suddenly throws a punch at Noah but misses, and Noah steps to the side, elbowing him right in the jaw.

The kid grasps his jaw tightly in his hands, anger fuming out of him.

He charges at Noah, but Noah kicks his shin and the kid falls, once again.

He is humiliated but won't back down. He gets up once again and throws a punch. It hits Noah in the side but he doesn't show any sign of being in pain.

He makes another attempt to punch Noah in the side, but Noah blocks it and swings his own fist at the guys face making a direct hit.

Creepy stands still, then wavers a minute before crashing to the floor.

Out cold.

Noah comes running over to me. He scoops me up in his arms and carries me outside.

I feel myself being set down on a piece of lawn furniture and Noah is hovering over me, "are you okay? Did he hurt you?"
"No-No-Noah I'm f-fine... I a-am ju-st a-a-a bitt sc-car-eed." I choke out, in between tears.

Noah breathes out a sigh of relief.

"Oh thank God. What an asshole that guy was. I'm so so so sorry that happened Jamie. I love you, so so much. I would never ever put you in danger."

"I-I know. I l-l-love you too."

"Let's go home."

I nod weakly as Noah pulls out his cell and calls a cab.

"Okay, they're on their way. I'm going to get Maggie, are you fine here?"

I nod again, still not trusting my voice.

He walks away, I know I am fine to be left alone. I'm not a child. But still, every time a guy walks by, I shudder and my heart pounds in my chest.

Why did I come here?

Soon enough Noah comes back, with Maggie in tow. Her eyes widen when she sees me, "Oh my God, Jamie! I am so sorry! I should have never left your side, I am the worst friend in the world!"

"N-no. It's not yo-your fault. Y-you have a r-right to go and b-be happy. D-don't worr-rry about me."

Tears are pooling in the corners of her eyes as I talk.

"Okay," she says, taking a deep breath, "as long as you're okay."

"Girls, let's go, the cab's here." Noah interrupts us.

He takes my hand, helping me up.

As I walk, be puts a hand on the small of my back, stabling me.

Once we are in the cab, I rest my shoulder on Noah's head and instantly fall asleep.

**************************

My eyes flutter open.

I see steam rising from a cup.

I sit upright and notice that I am back on my couch, with Noah seated across from me, and two mugs full of hot chocolate sitting on the coffee table.

"Hey." I smile groggily.

His eyes open wide and his head shoots to me, "hey. How are you feeling?"

"I'm okay. What time is it?" I ask, looking around for a clock.

"It's three thirty."

"In the morning?!" I exclaim.

"Yeah." He replies, smiling weakly.

"Why are you still up?"

"To check on you of course."

I blush, "Noah you didn't have to do that."

"Yes I did. I love you and I am always, always here for you. I am so sorry that I ever put you in that situation."

"You didn't put me in that situation Noah. Do not blame yourself. I wanted to go to that party, unfortunately I had a bad experience, that isn't your fault and it never will be. I love you."

"I love you too Jamie."

He gets up from his seat and comes to sit with me on the couch. "Get some sleep okay?"

"Okay. Will you stay with me though? Please."

"Where else would I be?"

I lift my head up slightly and kiss him lovingly on the lips, "I love you so much."

"I love you so much."

I smile and with those words on my mind, I drift off to sleep.

****************************

So, yeah. This is why I wanted to seperate the two chapters.

This is not a scene that I typically write, but I do hope you all liked it, as it was out of my comfort zone ... I thought it added a bit of depth to the story and a view as to how much Noah really cares about Jamie.
