Bleeding from your love

|Chapter 1|

"Want and need are completely different things " he smiled as he walks further into my room "want is something you have a desire to possess or wish for" he sighs .
"I do not want you Athena , I need you he breathes.  "I need you to hate me after everything that happened".
Few months before .....
                      -Athena POV-
College life was never easy specially since I'm majoring in forensics science to become a crime scene investigator. I have been studying for the past 4 years at a private college in New York I graduate this year and I can't wait to finally be free from all this work load .  Back at home it's just me and my father since my mother passed away when I was just 10 years old she was such a humble person with a big smile that would light up rooms . My childhood wasn't perfect but it wasn't bad just in the middle I was always a daddy's girl at heart. when I go back home for holidays I just spend it with my dad back at my childhood home since I'm the only child it's just has been me and him for the past few years since my mom passed away.  I'm a very social person or has people like to call me a "social butterfly " and simply I just love making new friends daily . I keep my friendship circle very little just because I don't trust people easily due to my last toxic relationship that damaged me few years back the scars aren't physical visible but they are mentally craved in me . Which the outcome will be me getting nightmares that would trigger my anxiety so much that I won't be able to sleep that following night . I have learned to cope with it I go  to group therapy for the past few years it has helped me with how to cope better and my dad is aware of what happened in the past so he has been there for me more often trying to help me the best way he can .
A few days later ...
This morning I woke up so tired from working double shifts at my job that I have been working for over a year . Even tho my scholarship covers all my expenses related to my college tuition I still work just to make a little bit of side money to spoil myself sometimes or to buy more books about famous serial killers or forensics books anything that is in the criminal justice field .  I spend most of my days reading and studying for my exams and sometimes I hang out with friends but not very often due to the fact that I have to work my ass off to still keep my scholarship. and it's honestly fine I love to study and read books either way ,has I make my way into my forensics class I start looking around the room for an open seat ,that's when I noticed him he must be new around because I never seen his face before I can tell he will be trouble just by the looks of it but "trouble never looked so god damn fine".
