last chapter! :3 hope you enjoy it!

After a few seconds of silence Beck brought me into a hug and kissed sweetly my temple. "Don't worry, babe. He won't do anything whilst I'm right here with you. It's okay"

But I know it's not. It's not okay. He doesn't know my father. He doesn't know the things he has done before. Things that I don't even want to remember. I know what he is capable of. Beck doesn't know him. He doesn't know anything.

He doesn't.

Beck's POV

I pulled out the thermometer. "Jade." She looked up at me with tired eyes and I took her temperature. "100 degrees."

Jade sighed. "Whatever," she said before getting up. I got up, too.

"Do you want to rest in your bed?" I asked her politely.

She turned around with a slight frown in her face. "Why?" she said.

"Because you're still sick. You know you feel tired and wea-"

"I'm not weak," she said with a threatening tone in her voice. I sighed.

I approached her and placed my hands over her shoulders, looking straight into her icy eyes. "Sorry." I apologized and gave her a little smile. "I'm just worried about you," I said sincerely.

"Don't. I can take care of myself," she said.

"Jade-"

She pushed me a little. "Oh, what? Don't you think I can take care of myself? You know I'm not a five years old, Beck," she said angrily.

"I know you're not, but you have to understand. You're sick, Jade. You're still burning up," I said calmly.

"So?" She asked.

I was about to answer but somebody knocked on the door first.

Jade looked at the door's direction, terrified, and I decided to go open it. "Beck, don't," Jade said.

I was walking towards the door when it suddenly swung open. "Jade!" It was Jade's father. He looked at me. "What are you doing in my house?" he asked with a low voice. His eyes were red and he smelt like alcohol. "This is bad." I thought. "Get out. Now."

I grabbed Jade's hand and started making my way out with her. We walked past Jade's father.

"She stays here." He grabbed her forearm and pulled her near him.

I turned away and next thing I saw was Jade being pushed backwards and falling on her butt.

"Um, that is not necessary, and I think it is better if she stays with m-"

"I said get out!" Mr. West screamed and I took a step back.

"Do not talk to him like that," Jade said, looking all sick yet fearless.

He started laughing. "Oh, Jade. Jade, Jade, Jade, poor Jade. You're a bad girl, Jade. Bad girl!" He kicked her in her stomach and she winced.

"Hey! Don't touch her!" I pushed him as well and he fell.

"You, idiot," he said.

I helped Jade up and when I looked back at Jade's father direction I felt something hard hitting me on my left cheek, which made me take a few steps back because of the pain on my face. He had punched me in the face.

"Beck!" Jade shouted, totally worried.

Suddenly, Mr. West grabbed a lamp from a table and lifted it up about to do what I knew he was going to do.

I closed my eyes and waited for him to hit me, but the lamp never touched me.

I heard a crash and I immediately decided to open my eyes again. First thing I saw was Jade moving unsteadily from side to side and then she started falling backwards. My eyes widened and I caught her before she could reach the ground. I looked at her and saw blood on her head, near her forehead.

Jade had taken the blow for me.

I looked at her father and he started laughing for the second time as a maniac. I took the opportunity and picked Jade up before running upstairs and into Jade's room. I locked the door and placed Jade on her bed. I started calling the police as I stroke Jade's face with my bare hand.

I heard the knocks and screams of Mr. West on the other side of the door and I was hoping the cops would get there soon. I was kind of scared. I wanted Jade to be safe and sound. I didn't know Jade's father was abusive, and even if Jade would have told me he was, I would have never imagine he was actually like that.

I started thinking about a lot of things related to what was happening till I heard the police sirens.

"What is that sound? Shut up!" Jade's father shouted. He sounded so mad and kind of drunk, too. "Who are you? I didn't do anything! It's Jade's fault! It's her fault! Not mine! Don't touch me! It wasn't me! It was Jade!" Then I couldn't hear him anymore.

I approached the door and opened it. Hopefully, there was a cop and I thanked him for coming in time, I told him that Mr. West was an abusive father and that he had hurt Jade and me.

And ambulance arrived and they took us to the hospital.

I only had a big bruise under my eye while Jade needed some stitching on her head.

I waited there until a doctor told me I could go see her. I entered the room and Jade was luckily awake. She looked so confused.

"Who are you?" she said and my world started falling apart. I couldn't believe what I had heard. I wasn't even sure if she had actually said that, but then she rolled her eyes. "Idiot, I was joking." She smiled.

I sighed in relief and laughed a little. "You love doing this to me, right?"

"Maybe."

I walked towards her and looked into her beautiful blue eyes. I was lost in them.

Then I kissed her softly and she kissed me back.

"I love you," I said.

"I love you, too." The smile she had on her face made me love her even more. "But Beck…"

"What is it?" I asked, curious.

"I still feel a little bad. Go get me something that will make me feel better," she said flatly.

"What's the magic word?" I teased.

"Please?"

"I'll be right back." I walked out the room and went find something good for my girl.

She's always needed somebody to be there for her, to make her feel safe, to make her feel loved, to make her see when she's wrong, to take care of her when she can't do it by herself, because she was not always the strongest, the fearless, the girl that doesn't sweat or the girl that can do whatever she wants when she feels like it. She had a soft side; her heart wasn't made of ice; she could get sick and then become weak, but that didn't matter. "Because I love you, I'll take care of you."
