"Goddammit! Can't you do anything fucking right?" Trevor shouts at me. "I-I didn-" I start, speaking quietly, but he cuts me off. "I don't fucking care what you meant to do. You're a worthless waste of space. A good for nothing whore!" He screams. I flinch away from him. Cornered, he gets really close. "You mess everything up. Nobody cares about you. Next time I expect you home when I tell you to be home." And with that, he leaves. I had been out with my best friend, Ethan, and didn't see Trevor text me to be home. Trevor and I had been together for about two years now. It's was like this about a month into dating. This is love, and this is what I deserve, right? No one else could love me like a Trevor. He has never raised a hand to me. Everyone thinks I'm worthless, but Trevor still loves me. I think. The lines have become so fuzzy. I know he shouldn't yell at me, but what is and isn't manipulative? I'm stuck in this spot of feeling like he loves me or that I can't do better and I hate it. Sometimes I want to run far away, leave him in the spot, but then I think that he's right. I'm a waste of space and it's better I stay with him. I don't know how to stop it.

I hear my phone ring. It's Ethan. "H-Hey, Ethan." I greet, making my voice as cheerful as I can. "Hey (Y/n). I'm just calling to ask if everything was okay. You left in a hurry." His voice is laced with concern. I smile softly at it. "Yeah, it's all good Ethan. Trevor just needed me." I say, leaving out the rest. I hear him chuckle on the other end. "Clingy much?" "No, he couldn't find the cat." I lie. It's silent for a few seconds. "You don't have a cat." He says. I stiffen. "Er, well, actually, it's a cover name for something private." I lie again. I feel horrible. He laughs. "Alright, fine, keep your secrets. Anyways, do you want to go to the park and walk Spencer tomorrow?" "Sure. I'll met you at your place." "Okay, see you at noon." Just like almost everyday. I would go out with Ethan for a about an hour while Trevor was working. I told Ethan I had free time because I was job hunting, but really, Trevor wouldn't let me get a job. Today, we had gotten sidetracked though, and I was out past when Trevor got home.

Trevor comes into the room, giving me an expectant look. Expectation it was, for me to follow the same routine. Clean the house before he's home, cook him dinner when he was ready, and after I clean again, he does what he wants to me before going to bed. It made me feel gross. "What would you like for dinner, dear?" I ask meekly. "Burgers. I know there's some patties in the freezer." "Okay. We're out of buns. Could you please go to the store to get some?" I ask. He gives me a hard look. "Do I have to do everything around here? I go to work every fucking day so that we have money for you to spend on shit. I work to take care of you, and then you turn around and make me do everything?" He yells. I shrink back. "You're right. I'm sorry." I squeak out. "Damn right, I'm right. Get cooking." He waves his hand dismissively as he exits. With shaky legs, I go and follow the routine.

I knock on the door to Ethan's house. He opens it. "Come on in. I haven't leashed Spencer yet." I smile, following him inside. I was carrying a jacket, and set it on the back of a chair. Spencer comes up to me with a wagging tail, so I bend down to pet him. "Spencer, come here." Ethan pouts holding the leash. Spencer ignores his calls and continue to get pat by me. "He loves me more." I tease. "Sometimes, I think so." Ethan says, clipping the leash on Spencer while I hold him. We go out and go on our normal route. We talk about his channel, my 'job hunting', how Trevors doing, how Mark's doing, and more until I get a text. I check it to see Trevor was home early, and demanded I was home. We had just made it back to Ethan's, so it was easy enough. I give him a quick side hug. "This was fun, see you soon Ethan. Bye." I hurry to my car before he can say anything.
