[ Chapter eight ]
Asher's POV
                          
Annie's dad gave me eyes that could kill. His eyes were focused on me and didn't let me out of his sight. I didn't care one bit, I looked him right in the eyes. Annie's figure shifted away from me and pulled her hand out of mine. I think she knew what was coming because she walked up to her dad and tried to hold him back. 
                          
She didn't succeed much as her dad threw her to the ground making his way over to me. I stood up putting my hands in the air in defeat. "I don't think we need to-" I was cut off by a fist landing straight in my nose. 
                          
"DAD!" Annie slammed her fist into her fathers chest bursting out crying. Her mom and siblings came and pulled Annie away. She and her siblings made her way over to me as her mom tried to calm billy down. 
                          
"I'm so sorry ash, I'm so sorry this has to be you" she cried in my chest as I laid down on the ground. I stroke her hair as in a way of telling her it's okay. I didn't do this on purpose, I just love his daughter and there is nothing anyone can do about it.

"Are you sure you're fine?" Her sweet voice made everything seem fine. It has such a calming effect on me. 
                          
"I'm fine, trust me." Annie pulled me up by my arm catching me as I fell down dizzy. She supported my body as we walked to her tent and laid me down on her mattress. She turned around and looked through her bath supplies, I was a bit confused on what she was doing. My nose was bleeding like crazy. 
                          
I growl as I sit up rubbing the back of my head. I admire her presence looking at her back. She turned around with a bottle and some paper towels in her hands. "What are you doing dummy, lay down." She laid her hand on my chest and pushed me down, I laughed at her caring personality. 
                          
She put some stuff from the bottle and the paper towels and stopped right before she was about to put it on my nose. "This could hurt" she looked worried about me. 
                          
"I'm a big boy" I said before she puts it on my still bleeding nose. Right when the cold substance hit my nose I winced in pain and grabbed on the bedsheets. She didn't take it off for a few more seconds. When she did pull it off it started to burn even more. 
                          
"Big boy huh?" She run her hand through my hair. I nodded making her giggle and shake her head. "You're all better now." She touched my nose lightly just to be sure. All I did was stare at her face and admire her beauty. She pulled her hand away and started fidgeting with her fingers. She bounced her leg up and down. 
                          
"Are you nervous Julie?" Her cheeks turned a light pink. She didn't respond but I'll take that as a yes. "For what?" 
                          
"Us, my dad." Her answer was simple, but I knew there was pain behind it. 
                          
"Don't be, like I said I'll prove your dad wrong. Or don't you want me to?" Her head nodded hesitating. "Are you sure?" She nodded more confident. 
                          
"It's just, I don't want my dad to keep hurting you because of me. He won't stop, so you need to stop."
                          
"You want me to stop fighting for you, never Julianna. I won't ever stop fighting to be yours even when your dad hits me, he can knock me out but I won't stop. I want you Julie. But more importantly I want to be yours."
