I pull you in to feel your heartbeat.
Can you hear me screaming
Please don't leave me
Hold on, I still want you!
Come back, I still need you!

He placed gentle kisses on my face. Then nestled his head into my neck, before trying to muster up the courage to say something.
"Y/n I'm sorry that I hurt you. It's something I must live with everyday, and all the pain I put you through. I wish that I could take it all away. I never meant to do those things to you. I know I'm not a perfect person. There's many things I wish I didn't do, but I continue learning. I've found a reason for me to change who I used to be, I've found a reason to show a side of me you didn't know, a reason for all that I do, and the reason is you."
I sat their for a moment taking this all in. I tried to convince myself he was lying, but the way his words came out so genuine I could tell that he wasn't lying. He was being sincere, he was actually ready to change for me. He in fact wanted too.
I shifted around in the tub so that I was facing him. I gave him a warm smile, as tears threatened to leak from my eyes. "Let's talk after our bath, okay?" He simply just nodded his head, and I turned back around leaning my body against him.
He wrapped his arms around me, and we stayed their for awhile until I finally spoke up. "The waters getting called William." He chuckled lowly, "I know love, I just love having you in my arms. I didn't want to let you go just yet. Y/n, not many things scare me, but losing you... that's something I just couldn't handle." He said gritting his teeth towards the end.
I smiled and slowly sat up in the tub, I grabbed the towels, handed one to William and then use the other to wrap it around my body.
He got out of the tub first, then held a hand out for me to take. I accepted his offer, and he escorted me to where my clothes were on the couch. "Here dear, might I say I really do love your outfit choice for today. Thank you for taking my words into consideration." I laughed reminiscing on him saying he just wanted to see me in an all purple outfit.
I blushed heavily, then began putting my clothes back on. He did the same. After we'd finished dressing, he walked over to his office chair, and sat down. He ushered me to come over, and so I did.
I sat on his lap, while he skimmed through the blueprints on his desk. I stared at him intently. Admiring all of his strong features. I reached a hand out, gently caressing the scars on his neck. "Spring Lock..." I muttered softly to him.
He shook his head yes and hummed softly, "How bad did it hurt William." He flinched at the thought of remembering, "Love if I'm going to be honest, I'd rather die then have to go through that pain again... and you know how much I hate the thought of...." He tensed his jaw, "... dying."
