After what just occurred a few minutes ago, I sat in the hallway and in same position until my but started to feel numb then I eventually got up and cleaned up the trash that he and I knocked over.

I stayed up for a couple more hours contemplating on leaving, he shoved me against a wall roughly it was the first time he'd ever put his hands on me but, there's a part of me who's also worried about him being out there. So decided I to watch some friends and hope it will distract me from those three words living in my head "I hate you". After watching two episodes I finally managed to drift off.

The next morning I woke up and looked around the house, and it looked like he still wasn't back.
Got off the couch and ate some yogurt from the refrigerator, packed up my stuff into my duffel bag then quickly took a shower. A few moments later I walk towards the living room area carrying my bag and stopped when I noticed something.

I dropped my stuff on the ground and walked over to towards the window and peeked through the blinds, and there he was just sitting on the porch. I sighed and walked out there with him, he looked horrible and reeked of alcohol my guess is that he was just drinking all night. He moved over as I sat next to him and we sat in silence for a few moments until I cleared my throat.

"So...where'd you go last night?" I Asked

"To the nearest bar I could find, I just needed to get away from here and clear my head." Shawn Said

"You mean get away from me." I Said

"I needed to get away from all of it, then I realized something last night." Shawn Said

"What?" I Asked

"Back in October I thought I could give you something, because a woman like you deserves the whole world...but lately I just feel like I can't offer you anything anymore Sonya." Shawn Said

"Shawn we've just been in a rough patch, all couples go through this..." Sonya Said

"Yeah but lately all we've been doing is fighting." Shawn Said

"No shit...I don't like arguing with my boyfriend about his health." I Said

"Then maybe you shouldn't." Shawn Said

"I can't! It's so damn hard okay, I go to sleep worried about you all the damn time..god it's so fucking exhausting." I Said

"Hey you knew what you were signing up for when we got together." Shawn Said

"No when we first got together you were already clean, so no I didn't expect you to relapse okay. I wished that match at the rumble never fucking happened." I Said

"I had to." Shawn Said

"And look what it costed you, a broken back and a pill addiction Shawn." I Said

"You don't think I know that, you think you've been the only one who's angry. I'm fucking pissed right now...all my friends are out there working and right here fucking depressed." He sighs "I'm stuck like this" Shawn Said

"No your not." I Said

"Yes I am Sonya, I've become a man who's hates himself so much he can't even look at his own reflection in the mirror. And I wish that I could tell you being with doesn't make that worse but deep down inside it does. Because the more that you love me..for who I am and the man I've become again...the more angry I get at you." Shawn Said

"How long have you felt this way?" I Asked

"For a while now...and I know that my failures and shortcomings have nothing to do with you, it's all on me and I know that. And I also know that if we continue to be like this and stay together I'm going to continue to take my anger out on you." Shawn Said

After hearing those words come from him ears started to fill my eyes but I held them back and took deep breaths, I never wanted this to happen between  us but here we are.

"No look this is just a fight we had, we've fought before okay...I don't want to end it." I Said

"It has to...I'm not good for you." Shawn Said

"But that's for me to decide." I Said

"And I'm deciding it for you, Sonya you deserve better." Shawn Said

"You breaking up with me because you think I deserve better, Shawn I don't want anyone but you." I Said

"You should go." Shawn Said

He stood up and tried going inside the house but I stopped him and stood in the way.

"You think you can just break my heart and walk away like a coward, I want to make this work okay.
I'm willing to make it work..all I need for you is to want the same thing." I Said

"Sonya.." Shawn Said, I placed my hands on his face

"Please..I don't want to end it this way." I Said

"Jesus, everything ends badly otherwise it wouldn't end. Believe Sonya you are gonna wake up one day with a sigh of relief, because I'm not there anymore." Shawn Said

"Please...don't do this, if you do this I will never to speak to you again...ever." I Said

"I'm sorry Sonya, for everything." Shawn Said

He kissed my temple and moved pass me to enter the house, I stood there as my heart raced and I had this bad feeling in my stomach. Shawn placed my duffel bag beside me and I picked it up then walked away not looking back.

As I got in my car, I looked at him one last time through the rear view window eyes filled with tears and he went back inside the house I couldn't help but start screaming repeatedly hitting my wheel while crying.

The drive home was horrible couldn't even see with the tears in my eyes, wasn't hungry so I just sat in my room and cried until I eventually fell asleep. I couldn't help but think never ending thoughts, maybe this is the right thing...or could it be one of my biggest regrets of letting my heart get hurt like this again.
