~I run to you~

1

"Callie? What's wrong love?" Stef walked outside and stood in front of me. I was sitting on the bench with tears running down my face.

"Nothing, I'm okay." I lied. I wiped my face.

Stef sat down next to me and cleared her throat. I turned and looked at her, she had a soft, gentle look on her face.

"Callie you can tell me anything, nothing will ever make me want to send you away. Ever." She smiled. "But I need to know what's going on Love."

I rubbed my nose and looked down, "I'm- I'm just so."

"So what?" Stef asked.

"Afraid." I choked.

"Oh what? Or who?" Stef asked, concern was etched across her face.

"Liam." I cried.

"Oh baby." Stef said, she leaned over and wrapped her arms around me. I sobbed into her shoulder, I began to shake.

"I saw him and I'm just so afraid that he's going to hurt me again. I'm so scared." Stef hugged me tighter and I cried harder.

"Callie it's okay Love, we won't let him hurt you anymore."

I hugged her and snuggled into her, I really love Stef. I can connect with her and I trust her. I don't connect as well with Lena.

Stef continued hugging me and slowly I stopped crying. But I was still afraid.
