[Taylors POV]

It was the day. The day that I have been waiting for for a while. It was my date with Luke.

He said dress casual. I wonder where we are going.

I threw on light washed skinny jeans, my 1975 shirt, and black docs. I curled my hair and put some makeup on. I put makeup over my cuts too. I felt ashamed having those visible. My phone buzzed.

From Lukeey: Hey beautiful, Im out side waiting(:

To Lukeeyy: Okay, on my way out.

I left and locked the door, walking towards Luke, who greated me with a big hug and beautiful flowers.

"Are you ready babe?"

"Yeah, where are we going?" I asked.

"A restraunt then a walk in the park by my house. Nothing facny."

"It sounds wonderful." I say smiling.

We got to the restraunt and sat down at our table. After ordering Luke asked me a question that I was nervous to asnwer.

"Hey Tay, you know you can tell me anything but if you dont want to answer thats fine. But, when did you start to cut?"

i sigh as I begin to tell Luke my past. I thought I could trust him so it all just started to come out. To come back. All the bad memories that I have before moving here.

"Well I think you will understand why I did if you know a little about my past. As you know my mom is single. Its because before we moved my dad left us for a younger version of my mom. I was glad he left though. He is a terrible man. One day, when I was 12, he came into my room and, started touching me, i couldnt get him off of me and he did it almost every night. If i told my mom he threatened to kill us both. So i kept it a secret until he left. I was always a rebelious kid and because of how my home life was, i got in with the wrong crowd at school, started doing drugs, drinking. Then Tommy came along. I thought that he helped. But he made things worse. He would get drunk then hurt me and yell at me and call me names. Thats when the cutting started." I broke down.

Luke was just looking at me with sad eyes. Wondering how anyone could ever do this to me. He just hugged me. whispering that it would be alright.

At this point, I was balling.

"promise me that you will never hurt me like he did. Please Luke, I cant go through it all again."

"I promise."
