Chapter 4: The Past

5 days later

Quick psa: I feel like this chapter may trigger some people but I'm not entirely sure so just be careful. I don't know which trigger though

Anna's pov:

Ag and I are cuddled up in my bed by my window watching the rain pour outside. Her arm is around my waist pulling me in closer to her with her leg over mine. We became official 2 days ago and told our fans about it. They seemed very happy that we're finally together and I don't blame them. I've been waiting for this for so long and I finally have it. We started talking about our future and the amount of pets we would adopt. A silence then fell between the both of us but it was a comfortable one. Both of us staring out at the window watching each droplet hit the ground. I started thinking about my past relationships and how I was mistreated in each one. I really don't want to get hurt again. I'm kinda scared that this will end up just like the other ones. I really hope ag is different. My thoughts started to over crowd my head and tears started rolling down my cheeks. I guess Ag felt a teardrop on her arm and got worried.

Ag's pov:

I felt something wet touch my arm and realized Anna was crying. I turned her body facing me asking what's wrong and got no response. She just laid there crying. She calmed down a bit then told me what was wrong. "I'm sorry I just don't wanna lose you. I've been cheated on and been in abusive relationships in the past and I'm scared that this will be the same thing. I have really bad trust and commitment issues because of my ex's. I'm afraid of not being enough for you and you end up getting with someone else behind my back. I don't want history to repeat itself." she says, crying a little bit harder. "its ok don't apologize, I get what you're saying. I've been through the same thing, I'm here for you. If you ever want to tell me anything you can, i'll listen." She sniffed as I wiped her tears with my hand and gave her a kiss on the forehead. "Well, one of my ex's in particular, his name was James. He's a blondie and has green eyes. He was 6'2 and really muscular. We were dating for 2 years and within those years he made me feel like shit. He told me that I wasn't good enough and would cheat on me with the cheerleaders at my school." "the entire team?" "yep, the entire team." I stopped talking and she continued to tell me the story. "He played basketball, he was intelligent and caring but ever since he started using alcohol and illegal substances he's changed. Every night he'd go out to parties and I would call him several times but he would never pick up. He raised his fist at me once but luckily he didn't actually hit me. My friends and family kept warning me to break up with him but he kept threatening  he'll kill himself if I did. I told his family about what was going on with him and they sent him to a mental hospital. I then texted him saying we're over and I haven't seen him since." she finished telling me what happened and started crying again. My heart sank. I can't believe someone would have the guts to treat her like that? There's no way in hell I'm gonna let Anna be treated the way he treated her. "It's ok bub don't cry, I would never treat you like that in a million years. No matter what happens between us, I will always be there for you. I don't know if this is too soon to say but I love you so much. You are more than enough and I couldn't ask for anything better. That dipshit deserves to rot in hell. I promise to take care of you, we're in this together through thick and thin. Remember that. I'm here for you, I want you to feel safe and protected. Don't ever worry about me hurting you in any way, that's the last thing I'd do. I promise." She looked up at me with tears running down her cheeks. "You promise?" "Yes, I promise." She went back to laying her head on my chest, her arms around my neck as I rubbed her back and my other hand running through her hair.
If I ever find that piece of shit, it's on site.
