I met vinnie a year ago. We made it official 2 months ago. He met me 3 days after I got out of a toxic relationship. I was in a relationship where my ex hit me, and abused me emotionally. I was never the same after that. Vinnie knows my past. He's different with me, but I was used to him being my friend.
My past has traumatized me so much and it still has to this day. Vinnie tries to come over a lot to comfort me, but I'm scared he might hurt me or throw glass at me like my ex did. So I push him away.
present
I was sitting on my couch when my phone had buzzed. He texted me. The message read, "im going to hang out with the boys tonight.. wanna come?" I didn't answer at first. He has patience with me, but if I keep doing it he'll leave me.
He's gentle with me, sweet toward me, but it's how my ex was before he became abusive. "Umm.. are you sure? I don't want to be a burden." I replied.
"You're never a burden, my love. Come. It'll be fun. I'll pick you up at 6."
5:53pm
I had put on tights and a normal shirt. I was never allowed to wear shorts with my ex because it showed off "what was his." I then heard a knock on my door.
I opened it and saw vinnie standing there. He looked at me up and down with a smile on his face. "Is this okay?" He furrowed his eyebrows, then caught on. "You look stunning. But, im not going to tell you what you can and can't wear." He stated placing a kiss on my head.
"Ready?" He asked sticking out his hand. I nodded with a smile. I took his hand and he opened the car door for me. On the way there, I always held my own hand. My ex josh never liked when I held his hand while he was driving.
*flashback*
"Come on let's goo" i squealed jumping up and down as we were going to the fair for our date. "calm down, jeez, y/n." He gave me a dirty look. I opened my car door because he never did.
He had his hand on the console, so without any hesitation I grabbed onto it. "What are you doing?" He whipped his hand out of mine. "You don't wanna hold my hand?"
"No." He laughed. "Sit properly and don't touch me while I'm driving."
I slowly sat back in my seat, crossing my legs and staring out the window.
*flashback over*
"y/n?" I heard vinnie call. "hm?" I looked over at him. "you alright?" I didn't say anything, I just nodded. He put his hand on my thigh. His thumb rubbing small circles. I looked down at his hand, hesitating if i should hold it.
I looked out the window, slowly placing my hand on top of his. I felt his hand move, so I moved mine quicker than I could blink. He interlaced our hands. I could tell he felt bad.
He pulled my hand up, gently placing a kiss on it. My hand fit perfectly into his. Like it was meant to be.
After we arrived, he opened my car door and helped me out. He knocked on the front door. "Is this y/n?" They asked with a smile. I got nervous.
*flashback*
we were at my boyfriends closest friend house. He walked in and we were immediately greeted by him. "Is this your girlfriend?" He asked. "No. She's just a friend." I looked at him confused.
After we got invited in, he sat me on the couch and leaned towards my ear. "Im embarrassed to call you my girlfriend." He whispered.
*flashback over*
