It's been about 2 months since I met Blue's ex. We've been spending allot of time together and i really adore this girl.

"Hey so you ready for our lunch date?" I asked walking into her new apartment.

"Yeah just give me a second and I'll be ready." She gave me a quick hug and disappeared into her room. I decided to sit on the couch and just wait for her.

As I'm sitting there I notice her phone lying on the other cushion blowing up with text. I was disgusted when I found out that Tyler was still contacting her. She even changed her number so I don't know how he got it.

"Baby I'm so sorry please."

"I never meant to hurt you or lay a finger on you."

"Come on babe you have to believe me."

"I should have never taken that dare and played with your feelings. I've changed i promise."

"I hope you aren't with that scum bag who is taking you away from me. I'm so much better than him and you know it."

That's when i had to stop and do something. He can't just crawl back into her life like a nice guy then criticize what her life decisions are.

"Look here buddy. I don't want you to ever contact Blue again. You are a disgusting human being and so what if she's with me. We all know that anyone is better than a scum bag like you. Blue is such a caring and wonderful woman and you took that for granted. No one should ever lay a finger on a girl and you did. So now this is never see you again."

You have blocked this contact.

"Louis? Um what are you doing." Blue asked coming around the corner as i was holding her phone.

"How come you never told me that Tyler was still texting you." I asked softly not wanting her to get mad at me.

"I um oh yeah im sorry." She spitted out and you could tell she was getting anxious. I stood up and placed my hands on her arms moving them up and down

"I'm not mad at you babe. I'm just worried, i don't want him coming back into your life. Even with the little I've known about what he did to you. He doesn't deserve you." I said doing my best to calm her down.

"It started up again 2 weeks ago. At first i deleted them and ignored it. Then it became a daily thing for him and i didnt wanna make you angry about or for you to worry about me but that's already happened." She said looking down at the floor.

"How about we go get lunch and talk about everything even though i know you dont want to relive it, it might feel good to get it off your chest. Does that sound okay love?" I asked the smaller girl.

"Yeah as long as you don't end up hating me afterward.

We made it to the restaurant and sat outside for a little bit of privacy.

"Alright, when you're ready im not gonna pressure you."

Blue's POV

He sat across the table just being so patient with me. I couldn't help but just sit there and admire how sweet that man is.

"Tyler was controlling, sexist, angry and an alcoholic. When he took me on our first date he made it seem like he was the perfect gentleman. Little did i know he wasn't. We got to the stage where i got evicted out of my apartment so he let me crash at his for about a year."

"Once he realised that he had someone to clean and make food for him and basically be his mother he started going out clubbing and he wouldnt come back until sometimes the next morning. He would come home and verbally attack me and sometimes it did get physical." I said quietly not wanting to make eye contact with the brunette.

"I soon just became his maid and a punching bag. Now the question i know you have been wanting to know is why did i stay with him. Well i was living paycheck to paycheck and didn't have anywhere else to go. I was scared that if i just up and left he would find me and do worse." Tears began streaming down my cheeks as i felt Louis hand on top of mine. Reassuring me that he was here for me.

"But there was a breaking point for me. I was diagnosed with anxiety about 6 months ago. I just had to do whatever he told me to do. Until the day that he kicked me out. I felt disgusted in myself. I couldn't look myself in the mirror knowing that i let someone like him walk all over me. But after a while, i felt freedom and i became happy again knowing that i had the strength to leave him and i could finally be my own person." I look at him through my glossy eyes. "That's when i met you." I smiled at him as he moved his chair to be right next to me.

"I am truly sorry that it had to happen to you. But i am beyond proud of you and the new found person you have become. You have brought me joy every single day i have known you. And i want you to know you will always have me I will never hurt you or disappoint you." He said not losing eye contact.

"I really just want to kiss you right." I said not knowing where this confidence has come from. He smiled and answered with a "What are you waiting for."

He gently brought his hands up to my face telling me how beautiful i was. Tender and sweet are the words to describe how the kiss was. He rested his forehead against mine as a smile rested on my face. That's when I knew

I love this man.
