That Same Night...

8:45pm

Bey Pov

When Megan came downstairs and I noticed a sad look on her face. She looked like she was ready to have a breakdown.

I immediately got up from the couch and before she could run off I pulled her into a tight embrace. "What happened?" She didn't say anything but I heard a sniffle.

I felt wetness on my shirt and I knew she was crying. I didn't say anything else I just held her tightly, rubbing my hand up and down her back in a soothing manner.

"You can talk whenever you ready mama.." I said gently.

She put her head in the crook of my neck and continued to cry. If anything she probably doesn't wanna talk.

Sometimes it's just best to cry.

I carefully leaned down and picked her up by her thighs. She didn't seem uncomfortable so I adjusted her so I was holding her up by her thighs.

"You wanna go lay down?" I asked softly.

She nodded wrapping her arms around my neck securely. I carried her upstairs to her room and sat her on the bed. She covered her face with her hands so I wouldn't see her crying.

I crouched down in front of her and grabbed her hands gently moving them from her face. "You don't have to talk if you don't want to but I want you to know that whatever it is will pass ok? I'm here with you at all times and I won't ever stop being here." She nodded and wiped her tears.

"i-i would hate to be a burden but...c-can you stay over maybe? It's fine if you don't want too I-"

"Of course I'll stay Megan. I'll never walk out on you if you need any form of comfort and your feelings are never a burden, remember that" Whoever that man is really took a toll on Megan emotionally. She's probably been holding this in for who knows how long.

"Why are you so nice to me Beyonce?" Megan questioned.

"Because I'm interested in you. I wanna get to know you, I wanna show you how a woman should really be treated." She looked down at her lap, fiddling with her fingers.

"Beyonce I really appreciate you, believe me I really do but...I'm not ready for a relationship. I need to work on myself but that doesn't mean I'm not feelin' you. I'm still so fresh out of that relationship that sometimes I find myself wondering if I can even live without him. It doesn't feel normal being in a house without him yelling, screaming, and hitting me. I know it's not right but I'm literally used to it." I can't even be upset about that because as soon as I heard "abusive relationship" come from her mouth I knew it would take time.

"I completely understand that Megan and I'll wait on you because I'm really feeling you girl. I'll be here every step of the way even as just a friend." I said giving her a smile.

"Thank you for being so understanding..I've never really had someone like you in my life except my mama and best friend.." I had this urge to ask about her mom but we've already been on an emotional rollercoaster so let's not go on another one.

"You think I can steal one last kiss from you?" I asked playfully.

"Who said you had to stop kissing me?" She questioned giving me a playful smirk.

"Well I mean...I don't wanna cause any confusion on where we stand so I figured-" She cut me off giving me a passionate kiss. We have yet to really talk about it but I'm not complaining.
