Vio's POV:

I saw Dan walk over to me and sling me over his shoulder. This was all my fault. If only I had listened to Shadow's warning. If only I saw that he was trying to help, and not being a jealous idiot.

Dan slammed me onto the ground in the alley a few blocks from the cafe. He smirked down at me. "Heh. You fell into my trap. What kind of idiot goes on a date the first time they meet a guy, without even knowing his name until the next day?" He asked tauntingly.

He was right. I was stupid. I knew he was too good to be true. I couldn't answer because the poison numbed my body. My vision was blurry, but I could see that disgusting smirk. I wanted to throw up, cry, and go to sleep. Mostly cry. Cry because I wanted Shadow, I needed him. But because of my selfish actions, he ran away. I shouldn't have said I didn't love him anymore.. because I still do. Spite of what anyone says.

Dan started to run his hands up and down my body. It felt gross, not warm like when Shadow does it. "How does it feel? To know you lost. How does it feel, Violet?" He asked. The name sounded like poison sliding off of his tongue and burning into my ears, forever.

My body grew weaker and weaker. I knew I couldn't win this fight. I was prepared to give up, at least I wouldn't be conscious for what he was about to do to me. Then I heard an all too familiar voice. "No one calls him Violet, but me!" Shadow yelled, slamming his fist onto Dan's cheek.

They both probably thought I was unconscious, because they didn't look over to see if I would do anything. "Ha! Here comes the rapist!" Dan taunted.

"Excuse you?! I am no such thing! I've never EVER done anything to Vio he wouldn't like! If he yelled at me to stop, then I would!" Shadow seethed. I never realized it before, but he was right. He never did anything to me that I didn't want to.

"Really now? Then why would Violet have cuts on his arms?" My attacker asked, knowing full well that it would affect Shadow.

Shadow gritted his teeth. "Because I'm a dumbass. If only.. If only I would've confessed to Vio before.. then he wouldn't have to have a reason to go out with you! I love Vio! And I won't let you touch him!!!" He roared and started throwing punches.

I felt my heart flutter. Shadow loved me... he actually loved me.. all those times he acted like a flirt and a jerk was because he didn't know how to tell me.. I was such an idiot.. I felt a tear slide down my cheek before I completely fell unconscious...

Shadow's POV:

I threw punches at the bastard, all of them landing successfully. Dan coughed up blood and wiped his mouth with his sleeve. "Fine.. you bastard.. you win.. I'm done..." He groaned before falling onto his back and passed out.

I nodded in triumph before racing over to where my beautiful purple ray of sunshine laid. I lifted him up in my arms and started to carry him back to the apartment. I would have to make Green file a report. He was an officer of the law after all.

When we arrived home, I explained the whole thing, minus the sex and the confession parts. "Oh no! Poor Vio!" Red cried. He turned to Green. "HURRY UP AND GO FILE THE DARN REPORT YOU PLEBIAN!!!" He screeched, shoving the green clad male out of the door.

I laughed softly and took Vio to his room before setting him down onto the bed and tucking him in. I kissed his forehead. "I love you..." I whispered before exiting the room to talk to the others.

Vio's POV:

I woke up with a jolt. I panicked, wondering where I was. Then I realized I was tucked in bed in my room. Shadow must've brought me here. I smiled softly, remembering what Shadow had said. He loved me. He didn't want me for my body. He loved the real me.

"OHMYGOD! WHERE ARE MY WAFFLES??" Red's voice screeched.

I sweatdropped, but then I heard Shadow's voice. I couldn't wait to see him. I wanted to tell him I loved him. I stood up and walked to the door, opening it, and entering the living room.

I didn't pay attention to who was there, I saw Shadow and he looked at me worriedly. "Vio, are you alr-" I cut him off by smashing our lips together. 

His eyes widened and he made a small noise of surprise, but he kissed back nonetheless. Soon we parted and just stared into each other's eyes.

"Oh."

"my."

"god!!"

Green, Blue, and Red yelled. I looked over and saw Red grinning like an idiot. "They finally kissed! Whoop! I KNEW IT!!!!" He yelled and shook Blue.

I blushed and shyly looked at my feet. "Well.. I was being stupid.. and I didn't take time to understand Shadow's feelings... so I... I just needed to tell him.." I stammered.

"Tell me what?" Shadow asked curiously.

I looked at him in the eyes, a blush painted my cheeks. "I love you.. I always had.. I was just.. I don't know... being stupid.." I said, averting my eyes.

He had the happiest smile I had ever seen. Even happier than Red's smiles, and those were pretty damn lucky charms kind of sparkly. He hugged me tightly and twirled me in the air. "YES! FINALLY! OH MY GOD!" He set me down before racing down the stairs.

We followed him outside, confusion and curiosity on our faces. "HE SAID HE LOVES ME! VIO LOVES ME!! YES! I KNEW IT!!" Shadow yelled, running down the street to tell everyone he knew or at least saw before.

I turned red and laughed. "Well he's happy." I said.

"Duh! He was so upset when you said you had a date! He locked himself in his room! Then went on a snack run!" Red teased.

"Haha.. that's Shadow.. the jelliest of all the jelly." I said, leaning against the bar's doorframe. I couldn't help but smile seeing Shadow so happy after three words.. but then again.. those three words made me happy too...
