--------
Chris has always been afraid of being in a relationship, he always kept his emotions locked up and pushed away so that they were safe. So he wouldn't get hurt. So when Jamie French came into his life, he was scared. Nervous, and took his time getting to know the woman. He thought everything was okay, he thought they were going to be fine. So when he asked her to be his girlfriend, and she accepted, he was actually excited. He loved Jamie, he knew she wouldn't ever hurt him. Because she loved him too, didn't she?

After the first 7 months into the relationship, Chris noticed Jamie's outbursts more often, she would yell at him for no apparent reason. But she had a good reason to, Chris had done something she didn't like, so why wouldn't she yell at him? Sure, Chris was confused on what he did that was so wrong nine times out of ten, but if he said anything, Jamie would give him a look. A look that he didn't like, no he didn't like it at all. It scared him, to say the least. The look always held hatred and rage. It made him shut his mouth and look straight ahead every time.

The first year finally rolled around, Chris was excited, he was lost in Jamie's toxic love. He was addicted to her. At this point, he couldn't do a damn thing without that woman around. Chris was blind to the disturbing fact that Jamie was abusive, he didn't believe it. She was just..tough on him. She put him in his place so that he didn't do anything bad. If he did something that was bad in Jamie's eyes, depending on the severity, he would get screamed at for hours. Or better yet, he'd get beaten on and screamed at.
Chris would never defend himself when it went that far, he would just beg for her to stop. He would try to tell her that he loved her, that he was sorry, that it never should've happened. Whatever it was. He inevitably let it happen, and when his brothers would ask why his lip was bleeding or why he had bruises on his ribs, it was always an excuse like; He fell down the stairs, he ran into a pole, he hit his head on something. It was never the truth, it was never someone who hurt him, never Jamie. No, Jamie loved him.
------
On this day, Chris got a text from Jamie, telling him to come over. Strange. Jamie was normally asleep at, "7:26?.." Chris's groggy, sleep filled voice filled the silence of his room. With a small sigh, and a twinge of anxiety, Chris texted back saying he'd be there ASAP. As soon as he texted that reply, he was on his feet, wobbling over to his closet and picking out an outfit of some sort and heading over to his bathroom. He knew he didn't feel good as soon as he woke up, his head already hurt and his stomach was beginning to ache. He didn't want to go anywhere, but he had no choice.
Once he finished getting ready, he picked up his phone and realized, it was already 8:03; "Oh shit- oh fuck- oh no- oh no, oh no- oh my God-" Chris gasps as he spots fifteen messages from Jamie. He feels the blood leave his face, goosebumps begin covering his arms, neck, back, face. He feels his chest tighten and pulse quicken.
When he opens the messages, his vision blurs over with tears.

Jamie ml 💞: Chris.
Jamie ml 💞: Chris where are you?
Jamie ml 💞: CHRISTOPHER
Jamie ml 💞: Oh so you're ignoring me now? Woowww
Jamie ml 💞: Okay. We'll see who's fucked once you get here.
Jamie ml 💞: You're so fucking stupid, I hate you. Just don't even come over.
Jamie ml 💞: Do you hate me or smth?!
Jamie ml 💞: Chris 🙁 why do you always ignore me, it's like you don't even care.
Jamie ml 💞: Chris if you don't get the fuck over here I'm going to beat your ass, COME. HERE. NOW!!
Jamie ml 💞: YOU'LL REGRET IGNORING ME
Jamie ml 💞: Okay. Okay Chris, you just wait.

Chris didn't read anymore, he felt tears fall down his face and heard his breathing become erratic. He needed to get over there, and he needed to get over there right now.
Shoving his phone into his pocket, the short man races out of his room and looks around. "Oh God- Matt?! Matt please I need a ride!- Matt!!" Chris yelled out, running his hands through his hair a few times. Once he realized that Matt wasn't home, he let out a frustrated shout. "Oh come ON!" He yelled, feeling his phone start vibrating in his pocket snaps him out of his anxiety induced fear. He fishes his hand into his pocket and pulls out his phone, his eyes landing on the caller ID, 'Jamie ml 💞'
Chris's eyes widened and he immediately answered.
"Hello? Hello?- Jamie I'm so sorry sweetheart I-"
"Shut your mouth, Chris! WHERE ARE YOU?!"
"J- I-I'm still at home Mama, I'm coming I promise but M-Matt isn't here, I have to order an Uber okay? Okay?- I'm coming-"
"Oh you're coming, huh? okay. Well get here, right now Chris"
"Okay baby, okay I- I'm coming, I'm on my way!"
Before Chris could say anything else, the call ended. Chris takes in a shaky breath and wipes his eyes, "God, stop crying.." he mumbles to himself as he starts ordering his uber, walking outside and sitting down on the steps that led up into his house.
