Trying To Save Him

One word cannot describe how I felt as I looked into the eyes of the person I loved. Although, terrified is most blaringly obvious if I was forced to pick one.  This is an emotion that in the beginning I thought, then later only hoped, I would never feel as I gazed into the cold hard eyes that stared at me, a shade of blue so light it bordered on gray.

That was one of the signs I knew I was in trouble. Everything was wrong! Normally these eyes were filled with such devotion and love that it could make even the most romantic of teenage girls gag, the warm hazel brown colour is full of patience and a mouth that is always spilling out kind, loving phrases to warm my heart. But not this time.

My hands shook against the door as I stood in the way, my heart raced inside my chest, I could feel by breath catch in my throat as I breathed. I was the only thing stopping him from leaving and hurting anyone else in the house, or worse, getting something that he could hurt himself with.

“Move out of my way!” He says to me, yet I stay strong, I manage to mask my tremors and stare back with a look of, what I hope was fearlessness.

“Fine. Have it your way.” He says as he wraps his hands around my throat, “you going to move yet?” he asks, tightening his grip. I do not reply, I couldn’t even if I wanted to with the pressure being applied to my neck. He must have seen in my eyes my determination as I felt his hands constrict even more. This slight action made black shapes prance around my vision, I knew then that this wasn’t like the others, this time at least one of us would end up hurt…

AN. This is just the prologue, dont worry, any chapters I post will be longer. This is the first story i've written on here and I would love to hear any feedback if anyone reads this, thank you.
