This is gonna be pretty short.
Cheryl's pov:
Toni's been here for about five days and I'm finally seeing some improvement in her. She doesn't ask me things that much anymore, she still does with the things she's not sure of though. It's been five days. Five whole days since that first kiss and I can't stop thinking about it. We've kissed about two more times since then.
I'm currently in my office finishing up some work on my laptop. I heard a knock on the door and knew that it was Toni.
"Come in"
She walked in and over to me, my eyes were still focused on the screen.
"C-Cheryl?"
After hearing the way her voice sounded, I immediately looked up at her.
"What's wrong?"
"Oh it's not bad I just..could you open this jar of pickles for me please?"
I looked down at her hands to see a small jar of diced pickles, making me chuckle.
"Sure"
She smiled then handed me the jar. I opened it and handed it back to her.
"There you go"
"Thanks"
"Mhm"
I went back to my work but she was still standing by me. I was focused on my work until I felt a pair of lips peck my cheek. I blushed and looked up as she was walking out.
A couple minutes later the door opened again, this time I looked up and saw Toni walking in with two plates in her hand. She walked back over to me and placed a plate in front of me. I saw it was a very neatly put together sandwich.
"Awe, Toni you didn't have to" I smiled at her.
"I-I know but, you've been in hear working all day and you haven't eaten yet"
"Well thank you, that was very thoughtful of you"
"Of course Cher"
"Cher?"
"O-oh it's jus- if that bothers you I-I won-"
"No, no I love it! It's like..a shortcut, for my name. It's nice"
She blushed and looked down. I lifted my hand up to pull her chin up gently but she flinched away.
Shit.
"Omg Toni I'm so sorry I-I was NOT going to hurt you"
She looked at me with tears in her eyes.
"I know" she whispered.
I nodded slightly, trying to make sure she was okay. She then hugged me very tightly, wrapping her arms around my neck as she sat down in my lap. I wrapped my arms around her waist, her face buried in the crook of my neck.
"I will never hurt you baby"
I heard her sniffle, and felt her nod her head.
"It's okay Cheryl, I know you won't"
I would never lay a hand on her like that.

Two years later
"You ready baby?" I called out to my beautiful girlfriend.
"Yep let's go"
Today was Toni and i's two year anniversary and I'm taking her out on a picnic. I managed to get her out of the system. I took her to see her family and she was so happy.
We got to the park and layed down our blanket. I placed the basket in the middle the sat across from her.
"Happy anniversary baby"
She giggled a little "happy anniversary"
"I have something for you"
I reached into the basket and pulled out the ring box. I opened it in front of her. She gave me a very confused look.
"This, isn't an engagement ring. It's a promise ring. A promise that I will protect and love you forever. My little TT" she laughed with tears in her eyes.
"I love you so much Cheryl!"
"I love you too"
