Lisa POV

I kept tossing and turning in the extremely comfortable guest bed. The storm kept rumbling on and I saw and image of lightning seep through the transparent glass of the window and that was when I lost it.

I got up and crutched to Louis' room as fast as possible. I began knocking ferociously on the door until a very tired looking Louis came out.

"Lou, the storm. It's scaring me. Could I stay with you for a while?" I asked.

"Yeah, do you want to talk or just sleep?"

"Talking would be fine."

When we got in, he turned on his side lamp and sat on his bed. He patted the spot next to him and I sat down.

"Ok, so it all began about 3 years ago. My boyfriend at the time, David, had just called me and asked me to take him to his house since he was too drunk to drive, or something like that. I got really tired of having to take care of him in this way. So, I told him that our relationship wouldn't work if he kept on getting drunk. I never had any idea on what he did at those parties, I never went to any of them. He could have been cheating on me all that time!

"Anyways, the storm was pretty bad that night. I was going to go home, but then he tried to basically rape me. He claimed that he wanted to make me 'feel good' and that the rain was coming down to hard and it would be dangerous to drive, so I didn't leave. But, I also never let him touch me. When I told him I thought me should break up, he punched me in the stomach, causing me to lie on the floor in complete pain." I said and I began to cry.

"When I stood up, he, for some reason, had a wine bottle in his hand. He smashed it on my head. When I was lying on the ground, helpless, he got on top of me and kissed me. I could taste the alcohol, it was disgusting. I pushed him off and he said,'You little bitch, you think you can do that?' And pulled a knife out of his pocket. Like, a real knife. I tried to scream out for help, but he covered my mouth with his free hand. Right when he was about to hurt me, again, the police came in. I have been deathly afraid of storms like this ever since then. Now you know."

I don't know why I was trusting this guy so much, I literally just met him today. But, there was something in his beautiful blue eyes that gave me reassurance.

"Lisa, whether this relationship will ever be real or not, I want you to know that I won't ever do that to you." Louis assured me.

"That's the thing, Louis. David said that, too. He said it would only be me and him, that he would never hurt me. He literally almost killed me. I haven't really been able to trust anyone again after that." I said, now full on sobbing.

Yes, Louis was a nice person but no way was I going to fall in love again that quickly.

He pulled me down so we were both lying down.

"Louis," I warned.

"I'm not gonna do anything, just comfort you, I can tell you need it." He kissed away the last two tears that fell. He pulled the covers over us. He wrapped his arms around me and I rested my head on his chest.

Maybe this would work out, real or fake.
