Chapter 1-

Tessanie's P.O.V.

**We are walking hand in hand, our fingers intertwined, down the pier. He looks so beautiful in the moon light. His hazel eyes almost glow in the faint lighting. I don't know where he is taking me, he said it was a surprise. Oh how I love surprises.

"We are here baby" Andrew stops me from going any further and we are in the middle of a candle-lit shape of a heart.

"What is this?" I ask him while observing the beautiful arrangement of the candles.

He lifts up my chin with his finger so I am looking into his eyes. His eyes glance back and forth from my lips to my eyes. He leans in and places his lips on mine. I still get butterflies when he kisses me, just like the first time. Our lips move in sync for a few seconds before he pulls away. I smile at him trying to hide the blush creeping onto my cheeks.

He gets down on one knee and reaches in his pocket to pull something out. I look at him in shock, unable to speak. What is he doing? He pulled out a little ring and said "Will you accept this promise ring? I want you to be mine, forever."**

I wake up to find Jackson, my boyfriend, shaking me lightly. I am sweating like a sinner in church and breathing heavily. There was that dream again. I don't know why I can't get him out of my head. It has been three years since my relation ship with Andrew. I have moved on and I'm positive he has too. I am happy, right? Of course I am. Jackson is a wonderful person, he just needs to control his temper...

"Are you ok, sweetheart?" Jackson's deep voice pulls me out of my thoughts. He looks worried. "You were sweating and you kept moving around. You kept repeating 'Andrew'. Who is he?" Jackson's face went from concern to annoyed in less than a second. Should I tell him? No, of course not. He would be so unbelievably mad.

I hadn't told Jackson about any previous relationships, only because if he knew I had any past boyfriends he would get extremely mad. Maybe even hit me again. He thinks that he is the only person I have ever cared for. Obviously he is wrong, I just won't tell him.

"I'm fine, thanks" I say quickly before making my way out of bed only to be pulled back in.

"Who is he?" Jackson asks a little louder, his annoyance is growing.

"Um, one so my c-cousins." I stutter when I talk and look anywhere but in his eyes. It's obvious I'm lying. I'm the worst liar on the planet.

"I know you too well, your lying. Tell me the truth NOW!" He shouted. He was only getting angrier. I knew I had to tell him the truth or else he would do something stupid.

I sigh heavily and tell him "He was my boyfriend in high school. But don't worry, I have you now and you are all I need." I tried to smile at him, but tears were forming in my eyes. I could see from his facial expression that he was furious.

"YOU TOLD MY YOU NEVER HAD ANY OTHER BOYFRIENDS! How could you lie to me?" He said in a disappointed tone. Why was he so disappointed? I'm sure he has lied to me. Oh. My. God. He started to cry? He doesn't cry. I have to make this right.

"I'm sorry babe, please forgive me. It wasn't really a real relationship, just a little crush." I replied, rubbing his back in attempt to comfort him. I hate having to lie to him like this.

"I don't know how I can forgive you for this." He whispered angrily. He rose to his feet and raised his hand. I knew what he was doing. He was going to hit me. I braced myself as his hand made impact with my face. I fell to the ground and everything went black.
