'I Promise' {T.F. Fan Fiction} (COMPLETED) (EDITING)

Talking

Mia's POV

"She had found me a few days at the store, and she had walked in front of me all of the sudden, and kissed me. I had no idea what was going on, or who kissed me, so I pulled away immediately, and when I saw it was her, I just got this horrible feeling in my stomach. After that, she started calling me, texting me, she even came by here once when you were asleep. Until one night she texted me saying we needed to talk, I thought when she said "talk" i thought she meant just talking, and not anything else. I didn't want to leave, but I wanted to see if she was going to leave or not if we talked. So I left the house, and walked to the park. I found and we talked for a few minutes, that didn't last long because she became all touchy, and weird. I tried to pry her off me, but instead she smashed her lips against mine, and started to kiss me. I tried so hard to get away, but she was everywhere, and there was nothing I could do. And then today. Today I was going to tell her to leave me alone, because I was going to get a restraining order. Once I told her, she started freaking out and everything, and that's when you came. But Mia, I don't expect you to forgive me, honest to god if I were you, I would walk away. I went to court and got the restraining order, and I have it with me if you want to see it. But I never meant for you to get hurt. Whenever I would try and reach her, she would always say she was busy. I'm an ass, and a jerk for not telling you what was going on, I was just scared that you would leave with Nevaeh, and never let me see you two again, and I couldn't bare to think of that. I know that this has happened before, but I never expected her to come back. I let my guard down, and I shouldn't have done that, and I'm sorry, I really am, and I know you don't wanna hear it, but I love you, and I always will" I sat there shocked, processing everything.

I was confused. One, how did this girl come back? Or course she could've heard or seen that we got married, and had a kid. And second, how did she know where we lived?

I looked up at Tanner to see that he was looking down at the flor, bracing for whatever I had to say. Of course I was mad for him not telling me. But I don't understand why she came back

"Do you still love her?"

I know it's a stupid question, but I just wanted to make sure.

Tanner looked at me like I had five heads "If I still loved her, then why would I have married you? Of course I don't love her, that's why I was trying my hardest to get away" I let out a breath of air that I didn't know I had kept in "Mia, I don't think I could ever stop loving you, but I know right now you don't, but if you want me to, I can leave you alone for however long you need" Tanner for up from the couch, but I immediately grabbed his arm "No!" He looked at me shocked because I haven't shown any affection toward him "Please don't leave" "A-are you sure?" I smiled weakly at him "100,000,000,000 percent sure" He smiled weakly and sat back down.

He looked into my eyes like he was searching for something, and I was really confused "What are you looking at?" "Have you been crying?" Everything stopped once he said that. I remembered last night, and what had happened. I looked down, and slowly nodded "Last night I completely lost it. Nevaeh started fussing, and I couldn't seem to get her to calm down, but you were always way better at calming here down. I started crying, and my aunt came home and took care of her for the night. I cried in the bathroom" Tanner put his head down, and looked at my hands "D-did you?" I knew exactly what he was talking about. I didn't know what to say, so I pulled up my sleeve to reveal the band aid. I heard Tanner gasp, and then heard his shaky breath "You- I, I-" He started breaking down into tears, and I immediately engulfed him in a hug "Tanner please don't cry. Please, I'm fine, now that you're here" "I-I'm the one who c-caused you to do, do that" "No you didn't, Madison did. If she didn't come in the first place, this would've never happened" Tanner continues to cry into my neck, and I soothingly rubbed his back.

For the rest of the night, me and Tanner just stayed in my bed, saying nothing. Our bodies were wrapped around each other, and we laid there in comfortable silence.

"I know this might be a stupid time to ask this, but do you forgive me?" Tanner asked quickly. I chuckled a bit, and said "If I didn't forgive you, who I be cuddling with you?" He chuckled "I've missed your constant sass" Just then, the doorbell, rang, and I groaned "Who could that be?" "Maybe your aunt with Nevaeh?" He asked all excitedly. I giggled, and we both got up. We ran downstairs, and I opened the door. There my aunt was standing, with Nevaeh in her arms "Well, I love seeing this" She stepped inside, and gave me a side hug, and Tanner one too "Well Tanner, I think someone missed you" She smiled, and Tanner nodded. She handed Nevaeh over to him, and he smiled widely. He held onto her for dear life, and kissed her head "Well, I leave you three to your reunion" My aunt said smirking. She walked upstairs and into her room. Tanner looked up at me with tears in his eyes "I missed you guys so much, I don't know what I would've done if I lost you both" Tanner walked over to me, and hugged me. I put my head in the crook of his neck.

"We've missed you"
