5 days later

Lola's P.O.V.

I was sitting downstairs in the kitchen in the afternoon, while Addison and Ben were "cuddling" in the living room. I knew Ben had his gaze on me the entire time.

"Babe, I'm gonna run out to the pool and make sure its clean so we can go swimming." Addison said while kissing his cheek.

"Alright." he smiled.

Addison got up and headed outside to the pool and I knew I had to get upstairs before Ben tried anything. I shut my laptop and went to get up but Ben was standing in my way.

"Do you mind? I need to go upstairs." I spat.

"You're so feisty which is what I love about you." he smirked.

"You pig." I snarled.

"What's this?" he asked grabbing on to my necklace that Zayn had gave me.

"Let go you asshole!" I said ripping it from his grip. "Don't ever fucking touch it again."

"Now come on Lola. When are you going to get over this bad girl phase and realize that you can't resist me?" he asked.

"When pigs fly." I spat.

He laughed at me and then gripped my wrists and pulled me close. He pushed me up against the wall and started kissing me. I tried getting away but his grip was too strong. He was holding on to me so hard that it started to really hurt and I knew it would bruise. He then started sucking on my neck and biting the tender skin.

"Let me go!" I screamed trying to break my arms from his grip.

"Come on babe. Just relax." he said.

"No! Get off of me!" I screamed. I knew the only way to get him off of me was to knee him in his crotch. I watched as he fell to the ground, whimpering in pain.

I took off down the hallway and ran upstairs.

"Oh Lola! Come back beautiful!" he said. I turned behind me and he was fast on my heels. I ran straight to my room and locked the door right when he got to it.

"Let me in! Come on Lola!" he said pounding on the door.

"Ben?" Addison called from downstairs. The pounding stopped.

"You will be mine whether you like it or not Lola." he whispered through the door.

I slid down my door and sat on the ground. I sat there crying for who knows how long. Still sitting, I reached up and grabbed a small mirror from my dresser. I looked past my tear stained cheeks and looked at my neck. Ben had created a huge bruise on my neck and my wrists were bruised as well from his nails digging into my skin. Suddenly there was a knock at my door and I jumped.

"Go away! Leave me alone!" I screamed while still crying.

"Lola? What's wrong?!" a familiar British voice asked. My eyes widened and I jumped to my feet and ripped my door open to see Zayn standing there. He smiled at me and I threw my arms around him crying into his shoulder. He picked me up and I wrapped my legs around his waist.

He then sat down on my bed, while I was still holding on to him.

"Lola what's wrong?" he asked stroking my hair. I pulled away from him and stared into his eyes.

"What happened? What's going on?" he asked pushing hair behind my ear.

"Addison has a new boyfriend and he won't leave me alone. He's been trying to get with me and earlier he held me against the wall and did this." I said pointing to my wrists. "And then he did this." I said pushing my hair back. I watched as anger filled Zayn's eyes. His jaw clenched and then his fists tightened up.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier? That's why you were so upset a couple days ago, wasn't it?!" he yelled.

"I didn't tell you because he said he would hurt you and the twins. I did it to keep you safe!" I cried. I didn't want Zayn angry at me, and I just started crying again.

"Where is the little prick?!" he screamed.

"Him and Addison went outside to the pool, but please Zayn don't do anything stupid!" I screamed. But it was too late. Zayn took off running outside and I was fast on his heels.

"Zayn! Please stop!" I screamed running down the stairs.

I watched as Zayn ran out the back door and then stopped. Once I reached him, I realized Ben and Addison weren't out here. He must have took her somewhere once he realized Zayn was here.

"I thought you said they were out here." he snapped.

"They were." I said.

Zayn turned to me and decreased the distance between us. He then grabbed my waist and pulled me into his chest and pressed his lips to mine and held me tight. I wrapped my arms around his neck and he broke the kiss and looked at me.

"I'm sorry for yelling. I just can't believe that prick touched you." he sighed drastically. "Come on, we need to cover that up. I can't stand seeing that on your beautiful body unless it was made by me." he said while taking my hand. He then led me upstairs to my room and told me to sit down on the edge of my bed.

He then began rummaging through my makeup box and found my cover up and walked towards me, kneeling down so he was at my level.

"Okay hold your hair up and turn your neck." he said.

I did as he said and he started rubbing cover up on the new formed bruise on my neck. I whimpered as he pressed hard on the tender skin.

Once he was finished he motioned for me to lay down and then he walked to the other side of my bed and he laid behind me. He then wrapped his arms around me and pulled me close into his chest. My chest was pressed to his chest and he smiled at me.

"He is never going to touch you again Lola." he whispered in my ear.

I smiled at him and sighed "I missed you."

"I missed you too. Now go to sleep. Let's take a nap." he suggested.

I turned so that his chest was pressed against my back and he started humming Summer Love in my ear.

A couple of hours later I woke up and turned to my left, hoping to find my beautiful boyfriend laying next to me, but he wasn't there. I checked my phone to see the time it was 9:30, and I noticed that I had got a text from Addison saying that she was downtown with Ben but it was already open. It said that she had sent it only a half an hour ago. It clicked in my mind that Zayn must have been awake when I got the text.

"Oh no!" I screamed and ran downstairs.

When I reached the bottom of the stairs, my sister was greeting someone at the door. I ran to her and realized that it was Harry, Liam, Louis, and Niall.

"Oh my gosh you guys!" I screamed. They instantly saw me and Harry ran towards me.

"Lola you need to come with us. Zayn went looking for your sister and boyfriend and we all know what he is capable of. We need to stop him before he regrets it." Harry frantically said.

He yanked my hand and pulled me outside to the car and we drove off. Harry didn't even care that he was speeding, we needed to find Zayn. We were driving down a side street when we all caught a glimpse of two guys and a girl and I knew it was them.

"Harry there they are!" Niall screamed. Before Harry could actually put the car in reverse, I opened the door and jumped out.

"Lola wait!" the boys all yelled. I ignored their pleads and took off running down the alley.

Once I got closer, I saw Ben receive a punch to the face. Addison was sitting in the corner, watching, she looked like she was in shock.

"Addison! I screamed. She looked up at me and scrambled to her feet. She ran to me and gave me a hug.

"Lola, please get Zayn to stop." she cried.

"I will. Go wait in the car with the other boys." I said pushing her towards the car.

I started running again towards Zayn and Ben.

"Zayn! Zayn please stop!" I screamed.

He looked up at me and saw me running. I finally reached him and grabbed his arm.

"Zayn he isn't worth it. If you keep beating him you're gonna end up killing him and then you'll be in prison. And if you're in prison we won't be together." I cried.

He looked at me and saw the hurt in my eyes. Throwing one more punch to Ben's stomach, he threw him to the ground and wrapped his arms around me. I watched as Ben scrambled to his feet.

"If you ever come near my girlfriend again or her family I swear I will finish what I started!" he screamed. Ben finally made it on his feet and he took off running. Zayn took my hand and we walked back to the car.

Harry drove Addison, Zayn, and I back to my house and dropped us off.

Once we got in the driveway, Addison ran inside the house and I went after her.

"Addison you can't be upset with me!" I screamed chasing her up the stairs with Zayn right behind me

"I'm not, but you're boyfriend almost killed my boyfriend!" she screamed.

"He deserved it Addison! Look what he did to your face and to Lola!" Zayn screamed.

We watched as Addison checked her face out in the mirror. She had a huge bruise on her face. She then started weeping and ran into my arms.

"Shh Addison its okay." I said.

"No its not. My "boyfriend" was a pervert towards you and I tried blaming your boyfriend for all of this but it was my fault for not realizing what a freak Ben really was. What if the cops come after Zayn and he gets arrested? It will be all my fault!" she cried.

"Don't worry Addison, the cops won't come for me. Even if they did, I will just say it was self defense and I was protecting you and Lola." Zayn said.

Addison walked forward and wrapped her arms around Zayn.

"Thank you so much." she said.

"You're welcome Addison. You're the sister of the love of my life and I would do anything to keep you all safe." he said.

I watched as they hugged and big smile appeared on my face. Addison walked to her room and then Zayn followed me to mine. I sat down on my bed and pulled my knees up.

"You know you're amazing right?" I asked entwining his fingers with mine.

"You've mentioned it a few times." he laughed.

"Well you are." I smiled.

I leaned forward and kissed his lips. He let out a small whimper and I pulled away. That's when I noticed that his lip was split.

"Zayn, why didn't you tell me he hit you back?" I asked. I looked down at his hands and his knuckles were bloody.

"What else did he do?" I asked. He looked up at me with a guilty look.

I lifted his t-shirt up and his chest and torso had a few bruises. He lifted my chin up and I smiled at him. I kissed his lips softly and then made my way down to his hands. I kissed each knuckle that was bruised. Then I motioned for him to lay down on his back and I lifted his t-shirt kissing each of the bruises on his chest and torso. I eventually made my way back up to his lips and he flipped me over so he was on top.

"What did I do to deserve you?" he asked stroking my cheek.

"Everyone deserves to be loved by a special person." I said.

He leaned down and kissed my lips softly.

"I love you so much Lola." he smiled.

"I love you too." I said stroking his cheek. He pulled me up so I could get changed for bed. I threw him a pair of his sweatpants that he had left here previously and I changed into a pair of basketball shorts and a tank top. I laid back down in bed and Zayn slipped the sweats on and peeled his shirt off. He is literally one of the most gorgeous human beings I have ever seen. I must have been staring for a while because he started laughing.

"Take a picture Lola, it will last longer." he chuckled.

I blushed a little bit and reached into the drawer next to my bed and pulled out my old fashion camera. Zayn was laying down, so I crawled on top of him and stradled him. He stroked the sides of my legs and I took a picture of him. The flash stunned him a little and I chuckled.

"Got it." I smiled.

"You're so weird." he laughed.

"I can't help that my boyfriend is totally gorgeous. I like to stare at you." I laughed. "Now I have a picture to stare at alll the time."

"Well my girlfriend is extremely beautiful and looks like a goddess." he smiled and grabbed the camera taking a picture of me.

I then laid down next to him and I positioned myself so that my head was resting on his chest and his arms were wrapped around me.

"Night Lo." he whispered.

"Night Zayn." I said back.
