For the next few days nothing happened. There was no sign of Liam, at least nothing that I knew of.
We had met my parents, and my mum was very happy to see Miley. She was already treating her as a daughter, which was a great Feeling for me.
After an exhausting day I decided to go to Mileys place, just to see how she was doing. I parked in front of her house and walked to her front door. I knocked and waited a Little. I waited for a Minute before knocking again. The door still didnt open. I got concerned because I knew Miley was home. I knocked again and called her Name. Maybe she had her headphones on and didnt hear me, I thought, but in that Moment the door opened. It wasnt Miley who opened the door. It was Liam. A shock ran through me and I didnt know what to do. Why was he here and why was had he opened the door? Why didnt Miley call me? Where was she?!
I decided not to act stupidly, he didnt know who I was, right? Liam looked at me curiously. I cleared my throat before talking. ''Umm...Hi?'' I said. ''Hello. Not to be rude but, who are you?'' he asked, trying to act all polite and shit. ''I'm Nick.. Who are you?'' I asked. ''Liam.. Why are you here?'' he asked. ''I could ask you the same. I came for Miley.'' I said, now showing my real 'face'. ''Are you Mileys friend or..?'' he trailed off, still not letting me in. ''Yes, can I come in?'' I asked and didnt wait for his Response. I pushed his arm out of the way and hurried inside and into the living room. I heard Liam call ''Hey!'' and grab for my arm, but missing.
I let out a relieved breath when I saw Mi sitting on the Couch. She looked so small and so fragile and I could see she was about to cry. Her head shot up when she heard me enter the room. When she realised it was me she jumped up from her place on the Couch and her lip started quivering. I walked over to her in quick steps and engulfed her in my arms. Miley wrapped her arms around my neck and pressed her face against my neck. I was glad she was here and I was glad she was okay. ''You're okay Baby, I'm here Angel.'' I whispered to her, comforting her. ''What the hell?! Who is that?" I heard liam exclaim behind us. Mileys arms around me loosened me and she peaked up at me through her innocent blue eyes. She was scared, I could see it. ''I'm her boyfriend, and I'd like to know what the fuck you are doing at my girlfriends Apartment?'' I said through clenched teeth. Miley let go of me but kept clinging to my arm. I pushed her slightly behind me. ''Boyfriend?'' He said sacastically, as if he was making fun of me. I didnt say anything. ''I am her boyfriend. I was away for a while but now I'm back. Right, babe?'' He said, turning to Miley. Miley shook her head, barely, but she did. I smirked at Liam. ''I dont think so. Now, Im asking you to leave.'' I said, then and let go of Mileys Hand to push Liam out of the door. But Miley just got a grip on my Shirt, not letting go. ''It's Okay Mi'' I whispered to her and turned back to Liam, who now looked at both of us furiously. ''No It's not okay!'' Liam screamed, and reached out to Miley. I moved to prevent him from getting to her but he had Mileys arm already in his grip. Miley whimpered in pain a Little and I couldnt stop myself. I raised my Hand and slammed my fist against Liams face. He instantly let go of Miley and his Hands flew to his nose, and he wiped the blood that had come out of his nose. I felt satisfied for a second but then I pushed him again and again until he stumbled out of the door backwards. ''Dont you dare coming near her again!'' I said to him through clenched teeth and slammed the door Closed.
I turned back to Miley who was playing with the hem of her tank top. I went to her and took her head in my Hands and placed a firm but gentle kiss on her forehead. ''I'm sorry Mi, I'm so sorry Baby'' I mumbled, Feeling dissapointed of myself. I wasnt here, I wasnt able to save her like I wanted. That sick bastard had gotten into my girlfriends Apartment. I looked down at her seeing that she had begun to cry. My heart hurt at the sight and my own eyes filled with tears. ''Dont cry, Dont.'' I whispered. ''Nick.. I'm scared.'' she whispered. ''It's okay, dont be scared, I'm here.'' I told her with a strong voice. She nodded. I pulled her to me once more and she buried her head in my shoulder. I ran my Hands up and down her back. Then I slightly leaned down and gripped her thighs. She got the message and jumped up, wrapping her legs around my hips. I slowly walked to her room and sat her down on the bed. I let go of her but she clinged to the collar of my Shirt, not letting me go. I understood that I didnt know how terrified she was of him. ''Dont go.'' she whispered. I shook my head at her and laid down on her bed pulling her to me. I ran my Hands through Mileys hair and placed a kiss on her head every now and then. Soon, I felt her breath slow down and I noticed that she fell asleep.
While she was asleep I thought Long and hard about what I was going to do. I couldnt leave her alone, what if somehing ever happened again while I was gone? Demi came home with Joe that evening and Miley woke up. I decided what I had to do. ''Miley, I want you to come live with me. At least for a few weeks.'' I told her. She frowned confusedly. ''Why?'' she asked. ''Because I cant be sure you're okay unless I'm with you.'' I explained. ''Okay. But..What about Demi?'' she asked. I hadnt even thought about her. ''Umm.. Lets go ask them, okay?'' I suggested. She nodded and I stood up. I took her Hand and pulled to the living room with me. ''Oh, hey guys!'' Joe said surprised. They were sitting on the Couch next to each other and turned to us when they realised we wanted to talk to them. ''Demi, I wanted to talk to you about something.'' I said and demi looked at me curiously. ''Okay.'' she said. At first I didnt know how to tell her. I couldnt just tell her about Liam and Mileys past.. ''Something happened today and I feel like Miley isnt safe here anymore. I want her to come and live with me for a while, if thats okay with you.'' I said. Miley was sitting next to me and watching me. Demi looked at me confused and slightly saddened. ''But, what happened?'' She asked. I thought about what I should tell her. ''Well, you see, there's this guy...'' I began hesitantly. I scatched the back of my neck uncomfortably and glanced at Miley. She seemed deep in thought. I paused and no one said anything for a few minutes. ''Miley, is this about that Liam dude?'' she then whispered. Miley looked up and I looked at her shocked, I didnt know she had told Demi.. Miley cleared her throat and reached out for my Hand. ''Guys.. Liam, was my boyfriend a few years back. He was a violent Person and he...became abusive. I got rid of him because he got into jail for stabbing someone but now he's out of jail and.. he found me.'' she told them. Demi and Joe were staring at us wide eyed. I decided to tell them the rest. ''So, he came here today and somehow managed to get inside. Luckily I came and he was out soon after. But I dont think she's safe here anymore and I want to Keep my eye on her. If it's okay with you Demi, I'd like Mi to move in with me.'' I explained. Demi began nodding. ''Yes, of course. If you're safer with Nick, Miley I totally understand this.'' she said. I smiled at her thankfully. Miley looked at me with a serious look. I leaned Forward and placed a kiss on her temple. I couldnt, wouldnt let anything like that happen again.
