No one's pov

"You're sorry?" Ruby yelled, face getting red with anger, heart pounding fast and veins about to pop.

"You're sorry" he repeated lowly, this time looking at the floor. Ruby was an angry person, it was diagnosed at an early stage in his life. It wasn't his fault but he couldn't do anything about it.

"You left me all alone for what reason?" He yelled pushing Jaylin's chest with force, making the taller light-skin stumble backwards.

"Huh? I asked you a fucking question Jaylin. For what?!!" Ruby yelled staring damn hard at his boyfriend. His boyfriend who he was in fact lucky to have. Just like how Ruby was a natural angry man, it took Jaylin a lot to get angry. The male was always calm and collected, that's until he has had enough. Jaylin and Ruby aren't perfect, they've fought real bad. Both of them having to need first aid. But at the end of the day. They would wind up in each other's arms.

"I'm sorry Jewel" Jaylin apologized. And he meant it.

"I sat alone in the house, with your food and night clothes waiting for you to come back and what did you do?" Ruby asked glaring hard at Jaylin, his hand forming into a fist. He was tempted to hurt Jaylin, he wanted him to feel pain, the same amount as the one he was going through. Even worse in fact.

"You came back the next day, Jaylin THE NEXT DAY, so please take your fucking 'sorry' and shove it up your stupid hole" Ruby yelled.

"I'm Sorry" Jaylin repeated staring directly at Ruby. He needed to calm the smaller male before it gets out of hands. Their neighbors have visited their home a lot of times to complain about the noises, sometimes the police has been involved.

The neighbors weren't stupid, even though Jaylin and Ruby had told them countless times that everything was fine, they could see the damn evidence in the boys faces and their home.

Whenever Ruby was angry he had to use physical violence to take his anger out, he would throw stuffs, beat things up, punch things, sometimes he would even drive to the shooting ring or any place that held violence activities, just to take his anger out. And his personal favorite and Jaylin's least favorite was when he used Jaylin to take his anger out. The taller male would sometimes let it happen because if he didn't hurt him, he would hurt himself even more.

Ruby had marks all over his body and majority of them weren't done by outsiders....Jaylin was scared.

After a few minutes of silence....

"Do you love me?" Ruby all of a sudden asked

"What?" Jaylin asked as he looked up at the boy.

"I said do you still fucking love me?" Ruby asked again irritated.

"Yes" Jaylin said without hesitation...."I love you so much Jewel, it genuinely hurts sometimes" Jaylin added as he used his right hand to rub on the small bruise on his left shoulder that had formed from three days ago angry episode.

"Good" Ruby said walking to Jaylin.

"I love you so much" the shorter light skin said to his boyfriend as he hugged him.

"I love you too, I love you so much Jewel" Jaylin replied.

"Damn right you do" Ruby said before hugging him tighter and giving him a kiss on the lips.
