Welcome To The Fallout - A Crown The Empire fic

No Control

Hey, I'm back! So I decided to post a new chapter, and get back into writing again. I hope you enjoy this! Also, I started to get addicted to a show called The Blacklist, honestly I just plain love it, and I might just write a fic about it, depending on if it would get read. Do you think I should write it? Comment below!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

I was in hysterics. My feelings were uncontrollable. Something telling me I should have left for good. Bennett was still by my side. At least he was there to help. I hoped.

"Bennett. I just don't know. I want to avoid this forever." I cried into Ben's shoulder.

He picked me up and placed me on his lap. "Tiff, I know he'll come around and realize we didn't do a thing." 

"I doubt it." I muttered under my breath.

"I heard that. I know he will. Believe in me." Bennett wiped his thumb against my cheek lightly. "He just gets frustrated when other people interfere with him and someone he cares about."

I said nothing. I can't do or say a thing without the tears. The anxiety is really kicking in now. It's almost impossible to control for me. If Bennett weren't in here now, I know for sure, I'd be dead. I've been in this position many times in my life. I can't forget the countless amount of times similar things happened, obviously this didn't happen, but I've been treated like complete shit, just how Brandon treated me. I'd rather keep my mind off of that now though. 

Bennett lifted my chin up with his index finger. "Tiffany, I promise you, everything will be alright." 

I put my head back down slowly. I felt him kiss my temple and back away slowly. Bennett really does seem to care. It never seemed like that before. Why can't I feel like I'm doing the right thing being in here with him and not apologizing more to Brandon. Why can't I control myself?

"Ben, I just wish he wasn't so harsh and threatening. That's what's hurting." I wimpered as I looked up to him.

He collected his thoughts then started again, "He has had a lot of stress put on him before you were here and honestly, I wish I could explain, but I cannot."

I sighed. This seems worse than what happened moments before. "Can you stay in here with me? I can't handle anything else right now." I asked.

"Yes, you don't deserve to feel hurt." Bennett picked me up and layed me back down where we were before. 

"Don't try to pull anything like you did before, as much as I did like it, I'd rather not cause anymore drama." I say.

"I swear I won't, I wish I never did that, I should have known it was going to cause a problem for both of us." Bennett layed beside me and turned to face me.

"Thank you. I don't know how I can pay you back for everything you've done for me." I replied.

"No need, I'm perfectly fine with you just saying those two words." Bennett smiled.

"Are you sure?" 

"Yes, I'm sure."

I closed my eyes and put both of my hands underneath my head. The only thing that I don't want to happen is Brandon to come back in here, I'm calm and I don't want to have another anxiety attack.
