{ JOE'S POV }
Before Brad had time to say anything else about this Lewis guy my phone bleeped and I immediately hushed him incase it was Aria... Which it was.
The Scooza, 154
That was all it read. What the hell was she on about?
"Marcus what's The Scooza?" I shouted into the kitchen.
"I don't know. Google it." From the sound of his voice you could just tell he was crying.
I sprinted out of Marcus' place and into my car. I assumed The Scooza was a place so I typed it into google maps which lead me directly to a block of apartments. Bingo.
I double checked Aria's text message, definitely 154. I ran as fast I could up the stairs, the lift would take too long.
1st floor. 2nd floor. No sign of apartment 154. I was beginning to feel nauseous at the thought of Aria and Lewis alone. My mind began running wild as I dashed up the next set of stairs. Does Aria know he's not her brother yet? I wonder what else Brad was about to say about Lewis... Had he done bad things before? Has he ever been in jail?
My mind kept wandering until my whole body went numb. I saw the numbers right infront of my own eyes. 154. I took a deep breath and reached for the handle, which was unlocked, much to my surprise.

He began sobbing. He was sobbing hysterically. I wanted to feel sorry for him, but after what he'd put me through I just couldn't.
"So what's your real name?" I whimpered, petrified incase I angered him.
"My names Lewis." He hissed, his sobs quickly disappeared and he was towering me. "So do you love me?" He shouted.
"No." I cried, standing up and running for the door.
His large hands wrapped around my upper arms and he swung me around, pushing me up against the wall.
"We could run away together. Start over. Have our own family. We could spend the rest of our lives together, you just need to tell me you love me first." He shouted. Throwing me onto the bed and pulling his shirt over his head.
Please god no. This can't be happening. For crying out loud this can't be happening. He stormed over to the bed and wrapped his hands around the sides of my head quite vigorously. His breath came closer to mine and he again began pressing venom kisses all over my neck.
"Please stop." I whimpered.
This only provoked further. His hand felt its way down my body until it reached my thighs. He slowly moved his hand between my legs and was muttering something under his breath which was inaudible to me. Just as I was praying that this was going to be over soon I heard the front door open and close.
"Who was that?" Lewis asked, panic and anger taking over his face. "WHO DID YOU INVITE HERE?" His voice rose and it was nasty and horrible.
He instantly disconnected himself from me and sprinted into the living room, grabbing his phone and the blade on the way. I followed him out, only to see the one person I've been praying of seeing. Joe.
He looked scared, his eyes were glazed. Stood infront of him was a topless psycho man covered in sweat, and behind the psycho was a petite girl with messed up hair, tear stained eyes and bruised arms.
"Why did you tell him?" Lewis turned around to me and this was the angriest I had seen him all night.
"I... I" I stuttered, I couldn't get my words out.
Lewis grabbed a glass vase decoration from the side and lobbed it at Joe, who thankfully ducked and missed it.
"You little shit." Lewis pounded himself at Joe and began hitting him, over and over. In his chest and on his arms, a couple of punches were thrown at Joe's face.
"No!" I screamed, but it was useless. I tried pulling Lewis away from Joe but it only angered him more.
"I love you Lewis." I whispered. Those words made him freeze for about 5 seconds. He left a battered and bloody Joe on the floor, and turned his attention to me.
{ JOE'S POV }
"Bullshit." Logan said, completely oblivious to me now.
I couldn't say I wasn't in pain, cause I was, a lot of pain. But if it was the only thing to distract him from hurting Aria then so be it.
"No, I love you." Aria said, she walked over to him and wrapped her arms around his neck. His hands slithered around her waist and it made me feel sick.
"How do I know you're not lying?" He whispered. Aria said nothing but I could see her tighten her grip around his neck. Their heads moved closer until their lips met. I hated watching this and I had no idea what Aria was playing at. Was she serious? Was she just falling for him all this time?
"What about him?" Lewis said, signalling me and pulling away from Aria.
I managed to pull myself together and sit myself up.
"I never loved him." Aria laughed. Now that fucking hurt. I still can't understand what she's doing. "I was just using him to make you jealous." She soothed.
"Let's run away together." Lewis gasped, before giving her another kiss, this one though was a lot deeper. It felt like it lasted forever. Just when I was losing hope I caught Arias eyes looking at me, she was still kissing Lewis. She widened them as if she were trying signal something at me...
I slowly stood up whilst that psycho was still smothering my girlfriend and I grabbed a tall but thin lamp standing next to the sofa. I wacked it around the back of Lewis' head which sent him tumbling to the floor.
After a few seconds of him lying unconsciously on the floor, Aria's eyes were raining tears and she ran over to me. She wrapped her arms and my waist and buried her face into my chest. I rested my head ontop of hers and inhaled her scent.

{ ARIA'S POV }
Me and Joe were forced to stay behind to answer some questions for the police. Paramedics checked us over and told us we were free to go, which surprised me considering Joe's upper body was black and blue.
By now it was 8pm and dark out. Me and Joe were sat on a bench outside of The Scooza until police and paramedics left with Logan's unconscious body.
"Let's go Nandos or somewhere." Joe stated.
I still felt a bit shaken up and I wasn't entirely sure if Joe was joking or not.
"But Joe," I laughed softly. "Look at the state of us."
"And?" He laughed, standing up and holding his hand out. After some hesitation and I placed my hand in his and entwined our fingers, standing up next to him.
He gently squeezed my hand and place a kiss on my temple.
"I love you." He whispered.
