A Love That Never Truly Died

Why

I got up slowly to answer the door, then as soon as the door opened everything went to hell. Standing there in the doorway was my crazy ex boyfriend Ian. I fainted, the darkness consuming me. Before I passed out I heard shouting and a door slam, then a blood curling scream, which was me. When I came to Dylan was sitting by my side, holding my hand. I fluttered my eyes to make sure he knew I was awake, he saw and smiled. "Hey, you okay"? I smiled "Yea I'm fine, why"? He frowned "Your ex boyfriend showed up, he was gonna try and "talk to you" but you fainted before anything happened. Luckily I caught you before you hit the floor". I shot up "Where is he"?! He gives me a sympathetic look and explains "He's out front pacing the street. Why are you afraid of him"? I frown and but my lip "He took advantage of me a lot when we were dating. He'd put his hand in my pants, force my hand into his, and make me touch his private part. Sometimes I pretended to like it cause I was scared he was gonna break up with me if I didn't. He told his friends that he never loved me so I broke it off with him. He was angry, jealous and wanted revenge. He thought getting with my friend was gonna make me jealous, it clearly didn't. I guess now he's here to try and force me to get back together with him". He stands up, "I'll be right back". I watch him walk out the front door, and I start crying. This is all my fault, I never should have dated Ian. Now Dylan is about to get hurt all because of me. I hear shouting out front and sprint out the door, ignoring My Dad and Lisa telling me to stay put. My hair blows in the wind, I step down the porch steps and see Ian punching Dylan in the gut. I run towards Ian and punch him in his chest, which makes him stumble a little bit. Dylan rushes toward me, "Go back inside! I don't want you to get hurt"! I grab his hand "We're in this together now"! I grab his hand and we run back to my house but not before I get yanked back by my other wrist by Ian. I let go of Dylan's hand and Ian now has me in his possession. I squirm in his grasp and try to break free, he only grabs my wrists tighter. I scream at him "Let Me Go! Help! He clamps my mouth shut with his big hand, and whispers into my ear "I'd keep that pretty mouth of yours shut"! I kick backwards as hard as I can and he drops to the ground rolling in pain. Dylan was already rushing to my side with my parents who looked ready to beat the shit out of Ian. My Dad dials 911 and within five minutes, they quickly arrive and take Ian away. Hopefully for good, I walk back to the house shaking. Dylan picks me up bridal style and carries me to the couch. "Let's just watch a movie? This was too much excitement for one day". I smile and nod, I grab a nearby blanket and cuddle up with Dylan. I was about to sleep when I heard pounding on my door, Dylan shook me awake and said "The police said Ian escaped, we have to be under house arrest for a while until they find him". I shake in fear, knowing sooner or later Ian would find me and everything perfect would come to an end. We wait hours to hear anything, no cop has seen or put Ian into custody. An officer stands posted at our front and back gates, watching for intruders. Mainly searching for Ian who apparently is armed with a pocket knife which is how he had managed to escape police custody, he killed the cop in the car with him. He says he's not gonna stop till he finds me, I didn't think he'd get this crazy. I went to my room and grabbed a metal bat, I was done being cooped up in my house. Dylan was currently in the kitchen doing something, so I snuck passed him or so I thought. He smirked "Going somewhere"? I curse, "Shitalkingmushrooms, you weren't supposed to see me". He glares, and rushes toward me, trapping me in between the counters. "I'm not letting you go back out there, it's foolish". I stutter, "I-I had a plan, and it could work if you trusted me". He frowns "And what happens if Ian gets you? I'll never see you again! I'll never forgive myself, especially if you were kidnapped because I let you carry out your little plan". He cups my face with his hands and kisses me, my knees fall weak and I kiss him back. I accidentally drop the metal bat on his foot. I hear him grunt the f word and kick it off his foot. He stops kissing me and holds my hand. He lets go and continues making dinner for everybody, and I attempt to carry out my plan. I open the back door, and the little alarm goes off "Beeeeeeep", I close it immediately. I hear footsteps and I know I'm already in trouble, Dylan locks the back door and grabs my hand tightly. "Taylor, stop it. I mean it you're just trying to get yourself killed". I glare at him being childish "No I'm not". He smirks "I thought you're a sophomore? You're acting like a two year old". I frown "Am not! Oh I bet you can't catch me"! I take off running but not far enough before I fall sliding on my butt. He laughs "Awwww, clumsy as always Taylor". The front door opens and My parents walk in "Good news Taylor, Dylan. They caught Ian! We're no longer under house patrol. Which means The wedding celebration party is still happening"! I nod "Awesome, so what's first"? They both grin "Family Game Night"! I laugh, this should be extremely fun!
