Hey I'm back with another chapter before the fate of my internet is decided. Thank you to everyone who reviewed the last chapter, I really wasn't expecting that many positive reviews. I know that some of my chapters recently have been lacking and I'm going to try and make it better. Anyways, enjoy this chapter guys.

(Jade's POV)

Lizzie was an actual idiot. My fists tightened on the steering wheel as I drove back to my house with Cat in the passenger seat beside me, nervously biting on her nails. I knew that she had gone back home, probably gone to grab her bags then make her way to the airport. We just had to get there before she left. Otherwise, well I didn't think about the alternative. I pressed further down on the gas the closer I got to the house. I had no idea what I was going to do. I had no plan, absolutely nothing. A part of me is still with Tori at the hospital. Now was not the time to be thinking about the half latina right now. Just focus on Lizzie and my dick of a Father.

"Jade?" Cat's voice said, and she sounded so small and terrified. "What do we do?" I had no answer to that but I knew that Cat was counting on me right now to get Lizzie out of this really bad, situation.

"We're going to get Lizzie bring her with us back to the hospital. Talk to my Mom and Tori's cop of a Dad and then we're going to make sure that Liz goes no where near him again" I said and I had to thank all of my years of acting to making it sound believable. Because Cat seemed to seem a lot less sad and more hopeful after she heard it. I had to hold back a sigh and I wished that I was as optimistic as she was. It would make the whole situation a whole lot easier.

She turned into the driveway of her house and saw Lizzie's car still in the driveway. I let out a sigh of relief and stopped the engine getting out of the car, making my way up to the front door. I really hoped that Lizzie was still here, I'm really not in the mood to go find her in an airport right now. If it comes down to it, Cat can do it, she'll be able to work the whole romantic side of it all. I could hear Cat behind me as I walked into my house and I could just tell Lizzie was here. I could smell all the old and new paint from her bedroom.

"Jade, what are you doing here?" A voice said from the living room and I looked up to see my Dad standing there. I could feel my blood began to boil and it took all I have in me not to punch him in his stupid face right now.

"I could ask you the same question" I snapped, moving closer to him. My eyes narrowing dangerously and I could feel my jaw clench.

"Elizabeth missed her flight, I'm here to collect her" He said and I could tell that the situation was going to turn ugly. But at this point I didn't care at this point.

"You're not going to fucking touch her" I snapped, and I could see his face turning slightly red. I couldn't imagine what it would be like to have him as a prominent Father figure in my life, like he was for Lizzie. It would be me that would be terrified, instead of her. Me with the bruises on my skin and not Lizzie. Right now I wish it was me in this situation instead of Lizzie. Lizzie, who is nothing more then a tall, clumsy, goofy, sweet, shy person who never deserved any of this. She definitely did not deserve this pig of a Father.

"How dare you speak to me like that" He said, his face becoming redder and his voice getting quieter. "I am your Father and you should show me some respect" He jabbed a finger in my chest and I will admit it did hurt a little, but I refused to show it.

"You lost the right to be my Father when you left me and Mom for another family," I yelled feeling all of the pent up anger leave me body and into the words that left my mouth. "And you lost the right to be Lizzies Dad, when you started fucking hitting her and make her believe that she's going to end up like her Mom"

I wanted to look behind me to see if Cat was still there or she had gone up to Lizzie, but I didn't dare look away from him. But knowing Cat she had probably gone upstairs as soon as she saw him standing here. He looked taken aback by her statement, like someone had just discovered his dark secret.

"Yeah I know all about it. I've seen the bruises as well" I growled my fists clenching at my side. "And I'll make sure that you never fucking hurt her again"

His lips curled up into a snarl "What I do is none of your concern!"

"It does if it concerns my sister!" I yelled moving closer towards him.

(Cat's POV)

As soon as I saw their Dad standing in the living room, I didn't bother sticking around. I had to make sure Lizzie was okay.I ran up the stairs, none of them noticing that I was gone. I walked into the familiar room of Lizzie's and I was immediately comforted by it. I would usually take my time looking around the room, taking in all of the painting and artwork that covered all the surfaces even though I've seen them all before. But not right now. My focus was on the blonde girl in front of me who's hands were shaking as she tried to zip up her suitcase. And I felt my heart begin to beat faster at just the sight of how lost and confused she looked right now.

I walked towards her and covered her hands with my own and she looked up with wide, frightened eyes. "Cat? What are you doing here? I have to finish packing" Lizzie said trying hard to keep her voice from shaking.

"You're not going anywhere. You're staying right here with me" I said holding her hands in my own. They seemed to not be shaking as much but I could tell she was terrified, and those odd moments when Lizzie did show how scared she was it truly did make my heartbreak. I watched as Lizzie glanced down at our joined hands before pulling away.

"I have to go, it'll be easier if I do" Lizzie said, running a hand nervously through her hair.

"Easier for who?" I said, desperation clear in my voice. It was a tone that barely anyone heard from me, I had only used it a few times around Lizzie in these sort of situations where she refused to listen to me. "Easier for him? Easier for Jade and your Mom? Easier on me?"

"Yes Cat!" Lizzie said her voice raising. I didn't flinch, I had gotten use to her those times where she begins to yell. All she has to do is get it out of her system then she should be fine. She wouldn't hurt me, I'm confident about that. "Since I showed up here, that long ago I have done nothing but screw up. Everything is my fault and if I leave everything will be fine and everyone will be happy" I looked up at her and I could feel my heart beating furiously in my chest. I didn't know if she was telling me that or telling herself.

"I won't be happier, and neither will your Mom. Or Jade," I said stepping closer to her again, feeling a flutter of hope in my heart when she didn't flinch or move away. "We all need you. I need you" My eyes connected with her and I could see her eyes glistening with ushered tears. I went up on my tiptoes, pressing my lips gently against her cheek. My lips lingering there for a moment. "Stay, please"

She nodded softly and wrapped her arms around me pulling me into her body, hugging me tightly as if she was afraid that if she let go I would vanish. I rested my head on her chest and listened to her heartbeat that was still beating frantically and I knew mine was doing the same. But it's okay. She's staying and I'm never letting her go again.

The sound of the door slamming shut broke us from our embrace as Lizzie's eyes snapped towards the door, standing slightly in front of me as if she was shielding me with her body. My hand moved its way to hers, and I entwined our fingers giving her hand a soft squeeze to tell her that I'm here. The door opened softly and Jade popped her head into the room before stepping fully in.

"You know, you really are an idiot" Jade said to Lizzie as she walked towards her, her eyes narrowed slightly.

Lizzie's face broke out into a small smile. "It must all of this paint fume" She joked but her voice was still slightly quiet as if she was afraid that Jade was going to start yelling at her.

"Yeah it must be" Jade said before, wrapping her arms around Lizzie's tall frame. Crushing her in a hug. Lizzie's eyes went wide with shock and I knew why. Jade has never hugged Lizzie before. Lizzie grinned before wrapping her arms around Jade hugging her back. The two stood like that for a while before Jade moved away first.

"Don't you tell anyone that I hugged you" She warned.

"Don't tell anyone you're a big softie? Too late for that sis" Lizzie grinned even wider when Jade half heartedly slapped her arm, and I couldn't help but giggle as well. Maybe now, everything will just continue to get better.

What did you guys think? I kinda wanted to end that chapter there it seemed like a nice place to end it. But Lizzie is not going to Chicago! But it may not be the last time we hear of him. What do you guys think of Cat and Lizzie? Do you guys even want them together as a couple? Please review and I'll see you all in the next one.
