VaughnXChelsea part 10
Vaughn's POV
Chelsea dragged me down the stairs and to the driveway, where her brothers had arrived.

"Jason! Tyler!" She yelled. She ran up to the one looking oldest first, I guessed that was Jason. The younger one was Tyler.

"Chelsea! Oh it's so good to see you again!" Jason said. They both grasped her into a hug. They all looked really alike, all of them had brown hair, but Jason had blue eyes like Chelsea while Tyler had green eyes.

"How are you? Why didn't you ever answer my calls or emails? What have you been doing? Has Dan—"

"Whoa, whoa Chels. Calm down." Tyler said, chuckling.
"Oh, sorry." she blushed. "Why don't we go inside? We can talk there..."

"Okay, lets go!" Jason said. Chelsea walked over to me and grabbed my hand before pulling me inside behind her brothers. When we got to the living room, we all sat down on the couches, Chelsea chose to sit by me. Her brothers glanced at me a couple times, I guessed they wanted to know who I was, and what I was doing with Chelsea, and why there was a huge bruise in my face. Curse Denny...

"Okay, so before we start catching up and I forget to do this, Jason, Tyler, this is Vaughn, my best friend from middle school that I've always told you about." she said. I tried my hardest not to seem anti-social, so I shook both of their hands and said a quiet, "Good to meet you." but they didn't look so thrilled to meet me.

The three of them spent about an hour catching up on their lives before getting back to what they came here for. I listened through the whole thing, occasionally getting bored and wanting to get to the point. Finally, they switched topics.

"I can't believe he would actually come back for you, Chels. I thought he would never find that scrap of paper, and I should have taken it out before I got kicked out of the house. I'm so sorry," Jason said.

"It's ok— its not okay, I guess, I don't really know what to do about it." she said back. "I mean, I know you guys are all here to protect me and all, but what's going to happen when he actually finds me? " the room fell silent, Jason and Tyler glanced at each other.

Seriously, they don't know what they're gonna do? Wow, they're great brothers. If I were them I would have one guy stay and beat Daniel up while the other calls the police. Before even knowing that I was talking, I suggested my idea.

"One of you guys could stay and try to beat Daniel up while the other protects Chelsea and calls the police. Simple as that." I said. The brothers were wide eyed at my idea, as if they hated it and liked it at the same time.

"You know, that's actually pretty good. I think we should stick to that." Tyler said. Thank God they didn't freak on my plan.

Chelsea's POV

Vaughn's idea was great, I loved the idea of having someone beat up my abusive brother. We had talked over the idea over and over until we finally agreed on something. By then it was about dinner time, and since there was a lot of us, mom just ordered pizza. It wasn't that often that I got to have pizza, so I ate 3 huge slices. After supper, we talked for a bit more before going to bed. Jason and Tyler got the guest rooms, and Vaughn slept on the couch.

I was about to shut off my light, when Jason came into my room.
"Hey Chelsea," he said.
"Hi, is there something you need?" I asked him.
"Okay, well, since I'm your older brother I'm more protective of you now, you know?" "Ya, but what does that have to do with anything?" I was confused.

"I'll just get to the point—I don't like the looks of that Vaughn guy." he sighed. A twinge of anger flared inside me. What does he know about Vaughn? Yeah he may seem anti-social to some people because he was teased and all, but still, he shouldn't judge Vaughn by his looks.

"Listen, I've known Vaughn since middle school, and he's my best friend." I said
defensively. "You haven't even taken the time to get to know him, so you can't know much about him anyways."

"Okay, okay, I get it. Sorry to bug you about that." Jason seemed a little annoyed. Okay maybe I shouldn't have been that harsh on him, he was, after all, my brother.

"I'm sorry...I shouldn't have spoke to you like that, but still, don't judge a book by its cover." I said.

"It's okay. I'll work on that. Now, time to get some sleep!" he yawned. "See you tomorrow morning, sis."

"Night," I said, curling up into my covers.

"Night, Chels." he said, closing my bedroom door.

2 hours later
I couldn't even sleep a wink! What is wrong with me? I sighed and sat up in my bed. It was midnight.

"Ohhhhh," I groaned. Since I couldn't sleep, I grabbed a stuffed dog I had had from when I was little and brought it down with me into the living room where Vaughn was sleeping on the couch, or at least I thought he was. I crept down the stairs and peeked into the room. I felt like
a spy. Vaughn was lying on his stomach, his head on his arms. His hat was sitting on the coffee table beside the other couch. I took a step into the room, and Vaughn's attention snapped towards me.

"Chelsea?" he asked. "What are you still doing up?"

"I could ask you the same thing," I said quietly. He got up and switched to a sitting position, and indicated that I come and sit with him.

"So, sleepyhead, what brings you down here?" he ruffled my hair, a small smile appeared on his face.

"I guess I just couldn't sleep. I was thinking about Daniel..and some other stuff..." I said.

"Oh, Chelsea. You don't have to worry about him, you're safe here, with your brothers and I. You know we wouldn't let him hurt you." Vaughn said, pulling me into a sideways hug. I yawned and leaned into him, my head resting on his chest.

"I know, that's why I'm so glad to have such good brothers, and of course, the bestest friend in the world." I said, yawning. I snuggled closer to him, grateful for his comforting and reassuring me.

Before I knew it, I was sound asleep.

This one was fun to write :) please R&R!
