Switch Up//Vinnie Hacker

10.

Lilith's point of view:

I turn around slowly to meet eyes with a security guard.

"I don't feel good, he's taking me home." I say.

"Do you want me to tell your fiancé?" The security guards asks.

"Uh, no thank you. He already knows."

The security guard nods and walks away suspiciously. I glance over at Grayson and Ethan and we make eye contact.

"Shit." I grab Vinnie's arm and yank him along with me as Grayson gets up from his chair.

We get to his car and he unlocks it. I look behind me and Grayson is still following me. I quickly get in and close the door. Vinnie climbs in and starts driving off.

"Do you want me to drop me off at your house?"

"No." I say rudely, not meaning too. "Sorry. Sorry. That came off a little ruder than i meant it to."

"Yeah."

The rest of the ride to his house was quiet and kind of awkward. We pull into his driveway he goes to reach in backseat and i flinch. He pauses and furrows his eye brows. He grabs what he need out of the back and we both get out of the car. When we get inside he shows me to my room and as he leaves, i sit on the bed and my eyes start watering. I blink and tears slowly fall leaving a shiny, wet trail on my cheeks. The tears burn my eyes and i take deep breaths trying not to completely break down.

"Hey so i got you-" Vinnie stops at the door when he see's me crying.

I quickly wipe my tears and look up at him.

"You okay?"

I think for a second and shake my head and my eyes fill with tears again. He furrows his eye brows and sits down next to me on the bed.

"What's wrong?"

Right after he asks that sobs take over me. I couldn't talk all i was able to do was cry. He wraps his arm around my shoulder and pulls me into his chest. I wrap my arms around his torso and bury my face in his chest.

*********

I wake up to the sound of someone knocking lightly on my door. I open my burning eyes and rub them lightly. The door cracks open and Vinnie carefully peaks his head in.

"Good morning beautiful."

I give him a weak smile and push my weak body up.

"How are you feeling today?" He asks softly.

I shrug my shoulders and look out the window.

I feel the bed shift lightly and i look over to see Vinnie climbing under the covers and sitting down next to me. He sets his arm around me and i slide down a bit, setting my head on his chest.

His fingers lightly run through my hair and he takes a deep breath. "Listen, i don't know what you're going or what you went through, but just remember that I'm always here for you. I don't care who it is. If i need to beat someone's ass, call me. If someone hurts you, call me. I know this is going to sound kind of weird, provided we haven't been friends for that long, but you are the only person, worth me going to jail for."

I look up at Vinnie and his dark brown eyes soften and his mouth forms a kind smile. I smile back then snuggle back into his chest. His fingers continue to run through my hair and his arms hold my body. I feel comfortable, protected again. I look back up at Vinnie who was already looking at me. Our eyes meet and a soft smile forms on my lips.

"What?" Vinnie questions smiling back.
