Y/N'S POV
It had been a whole year since I had left CJ and his abusive ways and gotten together with Gray. It's been the best year of my life. He's treated me like such a queen and makes me feel like I'm worthy of being loved. Me and Gray were getting ready to go out to dinner tonight and I was trying to figure out what I wanted to wear. Only in my matching black lingerie set, I walked past the mirror that was by my closet and stared at myself for a minute. My sides still had faint scars from when CJ would hit me with a beer bottle, my thighs covered in lines from when I self harmed due to the fact that I thought I had no way out. I teared up thinking back to all the awful memories. "Baby?" I turned around and saw Grayson looking at my face in the reflection of the mirror. He came up and hugged me from behind. "I came up here to see if you were ready to go but I heard you crying from the bathroom. What's wrong love?" I looked at him through the mirror and sighed. "I was about to go pick out something to wear and then I saw myself in the mirror and started thinking back to when I was with CJ. All the abuse that I went through and my scars from when I was so unhappy with my life," I poured out to Gray as he started leaving sweet kisses on my neck. "Baby, it's okay. You're safe from harm now and I will never let that bastard hurt you again," he said. I looked up at him sweetly and kissed him on the lips. "Gray, you always know just what to say to make me feel better." "Of course, gotta make sure my girl stays happy," he smiled. "Now, I'm gonna let you get dressed and I'll meet you downstairs." He kissed me on the forehead and closed the door softly as he walked out of our bedroom. I smiled to myself being so grateful for him and knowing that he would always protect me from harms way.
*At the restaurant
Me and Grayson had found some nice seats away from most people and in a booth since those were our favorite. This was me and Gray's favorite restaurant, Casa De Grande. They always had an amazing local band playing there and people were filling up the dance floor. "What are you gonna get baby? I think I might get the fish tacos this time," Gray said. "Idk Gray, I think the flaming burrito because you know I love spicy foods." The waiter soon came up and took our orders and walked back towards the kitchen. I looked out the window at the beauty of Los Angeles at night and gazed at the big buildings glimmering. I felt Gray take my hand and bring it up to his lips to give it a kiss. "You look so beautiful tonight baby. I can't believe that you're my girlfriend." I looked down and blushed as Gray complimented me. "Stop it gray, you're making me blush," I said as he laughed. "I'm serious! You are the most amazing girl ever." I giggled as I saw the waiter come up with our food. "Thank you so much," me and Gray said at the same time as the waiter smiled at us and walk away. "Hey Gray, I'm gonna go to the bathroom real quick." "Ok baby, don't be gone too long. I don't want your food to get cold," he laughed. I smiled at him as I got up and made my way to the bathroom. I did my business and washed my hands and as I was walking out, I bumped into someone. "Oh! I'm so so-." You looked up and saw HIM. "Well, well, well if it isn't the whore who up and left me for some white dude," CJ said in a smug voice. I rolled my eyes at his statement. "I left you because you fucking abused me every fucking day CJ!," I yelled over the loud music. "You treated me like an object rather than your girlfriend. You used me as your punching bag and I had to get out of that situation. I should've left from that first moment that you hit me but I was too scared of what you would do to me. I'M NOT FUCKING SCARED OF YOU ANYMORE CJ!" I yelled loudly. I had this tough front that I was pulling on CJ but on the inside, I was terrified. I knew what he was capable of doing and I knew that he wouldn't hesitate to do it. He quickly grabbed my wrist hard and I yelped as he did so. "You always were one to talk back to me you stupid bitch", he whispered in my ear as he started to touch me inappropriately.
Gray's POV
Y/N had been in the bathroom for 20 minutes and I knew that something was wrong because she never took that long. I got up and headed to the bathroom as I was looking for my girlfriend. Soon, I heard a girl crying and I turned around and all I saw was red. I saw that fucking asshole CJ touching all over Y/N as she cried and desperately tried to pull away. I quickly ran towards them and pushed him off of her. "You fucking asshole! Why the hell are you touching her?" "That whore? Just getting my revenge on her walking out on me." "Please CJ, I dare you to call her that again." "Just admit it Grayson, your girlfriend is a fucking whore." That was all it took for me to pounce on CJ and just start beating the shit out of him for everything he's done to Y/N
Y/N's POV
I was shaking from what CJ had done to me and suddenly so many flashbacks of him hitting me and forcing me to have sex with him came back in my mind and I sobbed as I saw Grayson jump on CJ. "You ever come near her again, I'll make sure you won't be able to walk you fucking bitch!" Gray yelled as he repeatedly punched CJ in the jaw. I saw so much anger in his eyes and I had never seen him that angry before. It resembled the anger that CJ would put out on me and I got a little scared of him even though I knew that he would never do anything to me so I quickly ran out of the restaurant and into Gray's sage green jeep and sobbed.
Gray's POV
I got up off of CJ and kicked him one more good time before turning around to comfort Y/N but I saw her running out of the restaurant sobbing. I felt so bad for my baby and what she had to go through for almost a year with CJ. I ran out after her and saw her in the jeep. "Baby, are you okay?," I asked her as I went to open the door and give her a hug. "Don't touch me please," she whimpered as she pushed my hands away. I looked at her with a sad look on my face as I saw her hands shaking in fear. "Baby, are you scared of me? You know that I would never hurt you," I said a little hurt. "I know Gray but the way that you got so angry. I've never seen you like that and I just had the worst thoughts in my mind." I looked at her sympathetically and hugged her as she cried into my shoulder. "I understand baby. You've been through so much but like I told you, I'm always gonna be here and I'll never let that asshole hurt you again." I kissed her on the forehead and then the lips. She smiled a little in the kiss as she pulled away. She looked down at my hands and frowned a bit. "Gray, your hands look so bruised up. Cmon, let's go home so I can patch them up." "Ok princess." "Are you okay now baby?" "Yeah, I feel safe whenever you're around."
