Unexpected Love

Chapter 12

Ann-Kathrin's P. O. V.

While Mario is sleeping, I decide to talk. I talk to him even though I know he can't hear me. "I love you, Mario. And I'm so so sorry that John did this to you. I'm so happy we're back together because I love you and don't want to be with anyone else but you. I want to marry you, Mario. I want to marry you and spend the rest of my life with you. And I want to have kids with you and grow old with you. I want to die with you by my side. I love you. "
I lay my head on his chest and fall asleep.

I wake up to Mario moving from under me. I sit up and rub my eyes, "where are you going?" Mario turns around and looks at me, "I'm just going to the bathroom. I'll be back. " I nod and lay back down.

When Mario comes back in, cuddling up next to me in bed, he says, "Let's just have a lazy day. We can stay in bed all day and watch movies. " I smile up at him, "That sounds great. " Mario leans down and kisses me. It's a short and sweet kiss, making it impossible not to smile.

We lay in bed all day, watching movie and movie on Netflix. We sleep through the night and get up the next morning, doing the exact same thing. When I told him I wouldn't leave him until he was better, I meant it.

It's been a week since John beat Mario up. Mario is doing so much better and he's at training right now for Bayern Munich. He's really excited to get back with his club team. I moved back in with Mario. And before you think it's to soon, I love him and he loves me. So we will work out.

While Mario is at training, I decide to do some cleaning. While I'm cleaning, I hear someone walk in. I turn around to see John, "What are you doing here?" He doesn't look happy, "I had to see you. " He starts coming towards me. I back up until my back hits the wall. "John, stop. " John grabs my hands, pinning them at my sides, kissing my neck. I try to pull away but he's too strong. I start to cry as he starts taking our clothes off. I close my eyes and try to go to a happy place as John rapes me.

Before he finishes, I hear someone yell, "What the hell?" Mario comes running over, grabbing John and tossing him into the wall. I crawl to the corner or the room. Mario starts beating the crap out of John. "How dare you force yourself on her! You want her to like you? Raping her isn't going to do that! You are a sorry excuse for a life! Now get out of my house before I kill you. "

John practically crawls out of our house. Mario rushes over to me, grabbing the blanket off the couch, covering me up. He picks me and and sits down on the couch, me in his lap. He hugs me as I cry, "Sh, Ann-Kathrin, it's okay. It's all over. I'm here. You're safe. " I look up at him, setting my hand on his cheek, "Mario, I am so sorry you had to see that. I'm so sorry John did this. " Mario laughs, wiping my tears, "oh, baby. You don't need to apologize to me. I'm so sorry that this happened to YOU. "

I take a deep breath, "You were the only guy I've ever slept with, and I was hoping it would stay like that. But John took advantage of me. I'm so sorry. " Mario shakes his head, "it's okay, Ann. I'm not mad at you. Everything will be okay. " I nod. We sit there, not talking. My crying and Mario holding me, kissing my forehead and whispering sweet things in my ear.
