*ASTRID'S POV*

I don't remember much about where i went or what happened after Gus picked me up i just know i somehow got back to where i started. I woke up next to Gus and memories flooded my mind. All i could do was stare at him. All i wanted to do was run away again. But i couldn't because i had to face him, now.

I tried waking him up by shaking him. He eventually woke up and sat up next to me.

"Explain"

"I don't even know what we are hued about Astrid"

"I don't either but talk now or i'm going to leave"

"Astrid"

"What"

"I don't know if i can"

"You can't what? Explain why you cheated on me for no reason? You can't do that Gustav?" I was starting to loose my patience.

"I didn't cheat on you" He was mad now i could tell he dislike the fact that i used his name.

"Then what was that i saw when-"

"I got raped" He cut me off.

I couldn't say anything. I was in shock. I looked up at him and tears were threatening to leave his eyes. I don't know how long must've passed because eventually they fell onto his lap. His hands when towards his face and all i could do was stare for a second. I went to go touch him and surprisingly he let me. I hugged him close to me and lit him rest on my lap after a while then i spoke.

"Can you tell me what happened?"

"Layla, she drugged me. I knew i shouldn't have gone to talk to her and i shouldn't have smoked with her it's my fault this happened i should've stayed with you i'm sorry."

"Hey no this is not your fault"

"But-"

"No, it's okay it's not your fault that shouldn't happen to anyone. Im sorry i got the wrong idea."

"It's okay i understand, i'm an asshole"

"No you're not. If you want i can leave you alone for a while." I went to go get up then felt something tug at my shirt, I stopped then heard him speak again.

"No don't go, I need you."

Those words pierced my heart and i felt it shatter. I heard the pain in his voice and all i could do was hug him for the rest of the day and into the night. I stayed by his side when he needed me and i will stay by his side till the very end. I love him and there is nothing that will ever change that because i know the feeling is mutual.
