Shawn's POV
I watched her slowly fall apart.
I watched as she crumbled under him.
She was broken.
I stood there invisible walls separating me from her.
I stood there and watched him beat her as she cried for help.
I watched her stay with him as if nothing ever happened and that broke me.
I watched her and couldn't help but think that I could treat her better.
Y/n's POV
I sat there as I watched my boyfriend hook lips with another girl.
I could feel my heart sinking.
The feeling was all to familiar, to watch the person you love not care about you.
Except this time no tears came, it's sad how what used to tear me apart on the inside just makes me numb.
Connor looked over at me and smiled, a cruel twisted smile.
Then it hit me how much I wanted it to be over. How much I wanted all the pain to stop. How I wanted everything stop.
Later that night
"I want 'us' to be over" I say to Connor holding in my breath waiting for a response.
"'Us' isn't over until I say it's over" Anger bubbling up inside of him.
"I don't want to live like this anymore" I state.
"You do not decide how you live I do and I always will you have no power over me" he yells.
I feel a hard slap on my cheek and feel my head hit the wall.
Something inside me snapped.
"It my life I yell and I want 'us' to be over" I yell running out of the house.
I ran and I didn't look back.
Shawn's POV
I hear a knock on my door and look up from my phone.
As I slowly open the door I see y/n.
I opened the door and looked at her, she was a mess her makeup was ruined her eyes were puffy.
I opened my mouth to say something but she beat me to it.
"Please don't say anything I don't want to talk about it" she mumbles.
I nod and open up my arms. She walks into my embrace.
I held her as if I was going to be the one to pick up all the broken pieces as she cried into my chest.
I held her like that for a few minutes.
She looked up at me and gave me a weak smile "thank you" she mumbles.
"I'll always be here for you" I smile back.
Later we were curled up on the couch her head was on my lap.
I could tell she was drifting off and I couldn't help but smile.
"I love you" I whisper as she drifts off.
A small smile appears on her face and I knew this would be the start of something great.
