lorens' point of view:
"loren are you okay?" harvey asked placing a hand on my leg.
"someone," i said pausing taking a deep breathe, "wanted to kill you to get to me?" i asked unable to calm the panic in my voice.
"yes."
"so, you're telling me that someone could kidnap me like you?" i said feeling my nerves shoot up.
"well, i guess it could have been an option for you, but he didn't want to hurt you. that's why he let me go," he said clearly trying to calm me.
"hurt me? he wanted you to break up with me! that would of broke my fucking heart!" harvey looked taken back, anyone who knows me knows i never curse but right now i think this makes an exception.
"do you really think i'd break up with you like that?" harvey asked with a frown.
"to keep me safe i wouldn't doubt it," i said in honesty.
"that's why i went to the cops, you're safe now. he can't get to you, i told you when i probably shouldn't have. now my life's on the line!" he snapped.
i felt my heart drop, "no that isn't what i meant."
"then what did you mean? that your life is more important than mine? the other way around? i don't fucking know loren, im just as scared as you right now!" he said now pacing.
i knelt on the bed grabbing his shoulders, "just breathe, look at me," i said grabbing his cheeks, "harvey please look at me," i said feeling the tears spilling. he finally met my eye, tears brimming in his eyes, "im scared. i don't want you to get hurt, i love you more than anything in this world. to keep you safe id give up everything, just please sit and hold me right now. while we're both still here, like appreciate it, because this showed me that life isn't forever and things could happen," ive never seen harvey cry like this.
it broke my heart to see him this torn up, "i love you more, i love you more then the bad days ahead of us. i love you more then any silly fight we might have in the future. i love you more then the distance that is between us. i love you more loren, i will always love you more," my heart fluttered remembering the first time he said that to me when we were leaving each other after tour.
"you own my fucking heart, harvey cantwell," i sighed pulling him in for a kiss.
"forever," he smiled.
"and always," i finished.
