New start. • Leah Williamson • Lover •

Part 29

I wake up and stretch.
I feel normal I feel me again.

I no we spoken and said we'll try again.
But little baby steps.

She's got my trust to build back.

"Morning" Leah says

"Morning le "

My phone buzzes.

I look and see more messages.

~~~unknown I'd~~~

U-I no we're you live.

U- your a waste of space bitch!

U- I'm going to finish what I started.

I automatically feel like shit again.

"Babe don't worry about her okay, I'll keep you safe and so will the girls! We will tel them and then go to the police once we're home" Leah says

"It's fine babe, doubt they will do shit"

I get up and do my morning routine and so does Leah.

I head down stairs the girls say morning but I just blank them.

Leah sits out side with the girls and I can see them talking in a low voice she must be telling them everything.

I go sit down with mine and Leah's drink and give CJ a treat.

"Mate, we're all here for you and we'll do anything to protect you!" Beth says

"Thanks it's fine"

"If you don't mind me asking what happened?"

I huff.

"We'll it started that I meet Arizona through some friends and then we got talking she was lovely kind and sweet made me bring my walls down we she asked me out I said yes. Things was goood, then a year later she asked me to marry her I said yea. And then she turnt controlling I wasn't aloud to see me friends or family. She put a wedge between me and everyone. Even Leah. Leah told me a few times to get out she'd help but then she found out and went mad. So I blocked Leah. And then she would go through my phone she would messge me non stop asking where I am and needing photos to prove it. If I didn't reply she would go mad and when she got home she would beat me. She used to SA me and shit even if I said no! She would beat me black and blue. This old lady one day witnessed her dragging me out the car by my hair and punching me so she called the police and the police took her away! She got 5 years"

"Shit mate sorry" Katie says

"It's fine"

"It's not fine I wanted to protect you but she told me then if I came near her she'd kill her, now she wants us apart and to kill her again" Leah says

"We won't let it happen promise"

We tidy up and get ready for the day, we decided to have a beach day at bournemouth today and go to the arcades.

Katie took hold of my phone today.

We get some lunch by the sea in a little cafe.

"Aye wanna go in the aquarium?" Leah says

"Yeah let's go"

We all go inside and have a look.

It's getting late.

"Shall we all go on that's big wheel?" Beth said.

"Yeah Leah and Sadie goes in there own cart"

Leah looks at me confused.

"Come on"

We all get it and it stops at the top with us.

"Leah I'm sorry for everything and not believing you and accusing you of shit. I no we've been through so much together! What I'm trying to say is I love you, will you be my girlfriend again?"

"Yes of course I would! I'll get your trust back 100%"

We kiss.

And the girls cheer.

We head back and order take away.

We chill out on the couch and watch films and cuddle up.

"Aye babe, I seen this song today and it reminds me of us and you"

"Oh yeah what's that? "

"It's called star gazing, hear listen"

She hands me a ear phone and we listen together.

Time stood still
Just like a photograph
You made me feel like this would last forever
Looking in your eyes
I see my whole life

(Oh-oh-oh)
They say you know it when you know it, and I know
(Oh-oh-oh)
Promise that you'll hold me close, don't let me go
(Hey!)

Take my heart, don't break it
Love me to my bones
All this time I wasted
You were right there all along
You and I stargazing
Intertwining souls
We were never strangers
You were right there all along

I lose my mind
When I'm around you, how I come alive
When I'm without you, I can't help but feel so lost
I wanna give you all I've got

(Oh-oh-oh)
They say you know it when you know it, and I know
(Oh-oh-oh)
Promise that you'll hold me close, don't let me go
(Hey!)

Take my heart, don't break it
Love me to my bones
All this time I wasted
You were right there all along
You and I stargazing
Intertwining souls
We were never strangers
You were right there all along
chorus

All along

Take my heart, don't break it
Love me to my bones
All this time I wasted
You were right there all along

I listen to it smiling it's us.

"That's beautiful babe"

"Our song"

"Yes I agree"

"Love you"

"Love you more"

We all tidy away and head to bed.

The next couple of days we spend going to the grave yard, spending time with family.
Watching my nephew playing football matches.

Now it's time to go home.
