With this story, I wanted to take a little bit of a different approach. I often see stories, and have written my own, where it's the girl that needs saving, so I wanted to flip that around this time around and make Niall be the one who needs a little saving. Who here has been lucky enough to never be any a shitty relationship? I haven't. In fact, I was in this exact relationship that we find our Niall trying to escape even months later. It may not have been physically abusive, but it was emotionally and mentally abusive. And it's hard for a lot of people to believe there's abuse when you can't see the bruises or broken bones. But it is there, if you just pay attention. And it's also hard to remember that the healing doesn't happen overnight...
It's easy to meet someone new, but it's not easy to not let the demons and words from another time creep back in on you and fuck with your head. But you have to learn to trust again and let people in, otherwise, you remain stagnant. Let them in....and maybe, just maybe...you'll find the one you were looking for all along. ;)
