TW // UNDERAGE DRINKING & PHYSICAL ABUSE 

Elena's head laid snuggled up against Robby's chest, his arms draped around her body as her's were latched around his torso, seeking his warmth. From afar, the couple looked peaceful, but if someone were to come closer then they would see the girl's dried mascara and tears that stained her cheeks, the way that her hair wasn't perfectly straightened but messy, as if her hands had been run through it multiple times. They would also notice how the boy's green eyes looked down at her with worry as he ran his fingers up and down her back. 


"lena," He said quietly as he gently shook her. The girl on his chest made no indication that she had heard him at all. 

" baby I have to go," He said as he shook her once again. 

Elena mumbled into his chest as she pulled the blankets that covered her closer to her body. 

" i have to go i'm sorry, tonight the first time that my mom is going to be at home in a while," Robby said as he wrapped his arms around the girl and pressed a kiss to her forehead. 

Elena didn't reply but instead laid her chin on his chest and smiled as Robby leaned down and pressed a kiss to her nose and then to her lips. 

" i love you, thank you for coming over when you didn't have to, " Elena said as she moved off him and wrapped her blanket around her body suddenly missing her boyfriend's warmth. 

" but i wanted to be here lena, you know i would do anything for you, " The green-eyed boy said as he wrapped his arms around her once more. 

" do you want a ride home? " Elena asked looking up at him

" no i skated here its fine," Robby said as she pulled away from the hug and they headed downstairs to the front door. 

" be safe, i love you, and text me if you need anything, " The girl said from the door frame as she watched her boyfriend walked out into the driveway. 

" i love you more and i will "

Elena walked back into her room and looked in her mirror. 

" i look like a mess " she mumbled to herself as grabbed some sweats and one of her boyfriend's shirts and started to walk to the bathroom. 

She stopped at her bed and hesitated for a moment as a very specific shoe box came into her memory. A year ago she would have opened it in a heartbeat seeking the burning and numbing pain as the alcohol reached her throat and burned away the memories of another argument with her parents even if it was just for a little while. Her eyes then drifted to a Polaroid picture of her and Robby. He sat in the driver's seat and she sat in the passenger, she was trying to show him pictures of something new that she wanted to paint but he only looked at her like a lovesick puppy. The thought of the box under her bed blurred from her mind. Before Robby came into her life she had no idea how to deal with her feelings, she had no one to talk to about them and she didn't know what to do to help with everything she was carrying. Most of her feelings all jumbled into frustration and her anger turned over and she would end up punching the wall or breaking things but after a while, the anger slowly melted into nothing; just of feeling of despair. She sadly turned to alcohol to help her feel something, to help her forget even if was just for the night. When she met Robby she had stopped drinking when she wanted to forget and instead went to him. When he found out about her bad habits he wasn't disappointed like she had thought he was going to be but instead helped her, he talked about how she wasn't going to let her through her life to waste and hurt her health like his deadbeat father. He helped clean up all of her bruised fists and bloody hands and made her promise him that she wasn't going to hurt herself or her health anymore.  After that, Elena stopped drinking not only for her but for Robby. She wanted to be better for him, she wanted him to be proud of her.
