After I showered and put on some sweats and a school shirt and walked downstairs. Matt had completely cleaned up the kitchen and he had ran home to clean up.

He was stting in the couch. watching TV.

"Hey" I said sitting down on he couch next to him. 

"What should we do today?" He asked me as he turned on he Tv

"Movie day?" I asked him

"Sure you go get snacks ill pick a couple movies" He told me

i went nto the kitchen and grabbed a couple sodas and waters and some chips.

"Ok" I said setting the stuff down ad then siting down nex to him. The movie was starrting. 

"Oh, Hell no!" i half way yelled. "Not Insidious. No Way" I said

I hate scary movies. They bring back... Bad memories.

"It's ok i got you" He said pulling me into a hug. The movie started and I flipped around so that my back was on his chest. He laced his hands around my waste and we just stayed like that until the end of the movie.

After the move eded we just stayed like that. After about  Minuites my phone rang.

I stood up sad to leave Matt's arms and walked to my phone. There was no caller ID so I awnsered it.

"Hey Sunshine" He said and I froze.

How could Garett be callng me we partly moved out? After we broke up i went into depression and began cut-

"Hello?" he said and i immideately hung up and threw my phone on the couch. 

I was Crying and i didnt know it.

"Hey. Its ok" Matt said as he walked over to me and pulled me into a hug.

He just held me until i stopped crying. He pulled out.

"Want to talk about it." He asked me and I could see the sympathy in his eyes

"Um. Before we moved out here I hada boyfriend. we dated for 8 months and then something changed. Suddenly he became really over proective of me. He wouldnt let me go anywhere without him and if i did he would hit me. One night he came over to my house and he was really drunk. and then he ra-" Matt cut me off and pressed his lips to mine. At first i was in shock but theni kissed him back. He pulled out.

"I will never let anyone hurt you ever again" he said our foreheads leaning against eachother. 

"Well, after that i got really depressed and i began cutting..." I said quietly waiting for his reaction.

he did something I didnt expect he rolled up the sleves of my sweatshirt so he could see my scars.

"These are from your past and wont be included in your future" He said then he rolled back down my sleves and pulled me into another hug. I began crying again. 

"whats wrong?" He asked still holding me

"Ive only ever told my mom the whole story" I said into his chest

"then ill hold this and never tell another soul" He said then he smiled at me and did another thing I didnt expct he kissed me again. Our lips were moving perfectly in sinc and then he licked my bottom lip asking for entry. I hesitated but then let me in his toung explored my mouth and when I pulled away and then pulled him I for a hug. I wanted to stay in his arms. Where I felt safe. Safe and loved
