These Are My Confessions

These Are My Confessions (8):

"Robyn?"

"I'm sorry to bother you. May I come in?"

"Yeah, yeah... um come in." I walked into the condo sitting down on the couch. I glanced over Ty's body. He was wearing sweats, with no shirt leaving his upper body exposed. His hair was pulled back into a ponytail.

"I need a favor."

"Anything."

"Can I stay with you for a couple days? I just need a break and I don't think I can cope anymore." I broke down. Tyler grabbed my body bringing me close to him.

"Shhh of course you can stay with me. No questions asked, you still have my keys right?" I nodded my head. "Anytime you're feeling trapped use them. I'm here."

"Thank you Ty." He picked me up and placed me in his bed.

"Get some rest." He wrapped his around my body and for the first time in a while I could breath.

It's been three days and I feel better. I still cover my face with makeup because I don't want Ty to see the bruises. In these short days I feel raw like I finally found inner peace within myself. Sitting here in a house where there is security and love is all I ever needed. I made my choice and I know what I need to do. I grabbed my phone turning it on for the first time in days. All my family knows that I'm safe but, they don't know where I am. All the alerts flooded through my phone mostly from Aiyden. Even when we are apart he is still suffocating me. I picked my phone and called a local locksmith. I gave them instructions on where the spear key was and where I want them to put the new one.

"Hey beautiful." Ty said coming from the kitchen in his uniform.

"Hello handsome." I giggled. "I made you food." I sat him down at the barstool. I walked over to the stove putting his plate in the microwave.

"What you make?"

"Bake chicken, macaroni and cheese, string beans and peach cobbler."

"Damn ma, I see you." I grabbed the plate sitting it in front of him. He took a bite of the food. "This shit so good Ro."

"I'm glad." I cleaned up the rest of the dishes while he ate. He came up behind me putting his dishes in the sink. I felt his hand brush against my body. I turned around in his arms. I reached up on the balls of my feet and kissed him. I pulled away looking at his face. "I'm sorry." I walked into his guest bedroom. Seconds later I heard the door open followed by a dent in the bed beside me.

"Baby girl what's wrong?"

"Nothing. I'm sorry I didn't mean to kiss you."

"You know if given the opportunity I would be all over you but, you have a man." My mind started racing back to Aiyden. I knew eventually I have to go back to that living hell.

"I can't go back there to that house."

"Why not?"

"If I tell you please don't look at me any differently." He nodded his head. I went into the bathroom wiping my face of the make.

"I thought you were going to tell me something." I walked back into the room. "Did that nigga do that to you?" He punched the wall in the corner of the room.

"Please don't be mad at me." I begged.

"Why would you let a nigga put his hands on you?" Tears started rushing down my face. "You know what I'll be right back." He started rushing to his bedroom going through his safe.

"Tyler stop." I screamed. I tried to move him but, he walked past me.

"Robyn move let me handle this."

"Tyler please don't. I'm begging you, you don't know the type of person he is. Just let me handle this. I already called somebody to change the locks." I sobbed. "Just please don't leave me." He sat the gun down on the bed. He balled his fist then started shaking. He let out a deep sigh.

"You're not staying in that house."

"I can't up and leave."

"You can live here with me until you find a new place. I can't let you live there knowing that he could easily get to you." I wrapped my arms around his torso.

"Thank you so much Ty."

"No problem baby girl." His body towered over mine as he hugged me back. He put his gun up then walked over to his bed getting under the covers.

"Can I lay with you tonight?" I crawled in beside him snuggling into the crook of his neck.

"Tyler."

"Huh?" He groaned.

"I love you." I started drifting off to sleep before hearing him say,

"I love you more."
