As we finished the bath and got up to dry I saw him observe my body with an intense look, and he saw more scars on my side, my legs and on my stomach, I put my long hair up in messy bun and he saw another on at my neck, I quickly wrapped the towel around me and left the bathroom feeling uncomfortable in my own skin, I got some panties and a big shirt from my suitcase and put in on and then crawled under the blanket in the other bed, he rushed in and saw me lay there, I started sulking and he heard that and rushed over to my bed and sat on the edge as his hand was rubbing my leg, I looked at him with tears in my eyes and he started to lay down behind me and wrapped his arms around me and our fingers intertwined. "Please open up to me princess, I want to help you" he whispered in my ear, I took a deep breath and nodded. "well here is what happened"

*Lulu's Flashback*

I had just started at my new job as a waiter at a bar, and I really liked the job, people was kind and not unpleasant at all. One night as I was working a new guy walked in, I hadn't seen him before. He sat up in the bar and I asked him what he wanted to drink, and I gave it to him. He then started to come often and became a regular, and we started to talk and flirting. I really liked this guy, he told me his name was Sean, and after a couple of weeks he asked me on a date and I accepted it. He even accepted the fact that I was a virgin, we went on the date and had a really good time, he eventually asked me to be his girlfriend and I said yes. And everything was great for a while. Suddenly one night we was sitting and watching tv and I was culling up to him and his hands started to go down my back and he started to kiss me, I could feel he wanted to take me, and I wasn't ready for it so I asked him to stop but he wouldn't and then I bit him and pushed him of me, but I shouldn't had done that. He got furious and grabbed my neck and threw me across the some and I went in and hit a glass montre and it shattered around me and glasses went all over me, he picked me up again and pushed me up against the wall, I kicked him between his legs and he hit my face and threw me on the ground so I landed in the glass again and got cuts everywhere, he got to me and picked a piece of glass and ran it over my stomach. He kept hitting me and kicked me, and I eventually passed out. When I woke up I was in the hospital and my mom was at my side and I looked at her with tears in my eyes, she looked at me and ran after the doctor. The doctor then explained what happened after I passed out, " the neighbors heard the noises from his house and went over and knocked, they saw you laying unconscious on the floor and looked at him, and he took off before they could do anything about it, they called 911 and now you are here", I started to cry, "am I still a virgin" I asked, he nodded. After a couple of days I went home to my parents place and lived there until I was fully recovered, and then I went back to my own place, but then one day I was walking home I saw him outside the place were I lived, he had found me.

"And then I moved in next to you" I said and looked at him. He was looking at me with widened eyes and didn't know what to say, he pulled me closer and I turned around and looking at him with a small smile, "thank you for telling me" he whispered. I looked down and broke eye contact with him, "what wrong" he asked, I shook my head, "please tell me" he said pleading. You took a deep breath and tried to gather the confidence, after a little while you finally opened your mouth, "i saw the scars on you back" you said softly, he smiled at you "oh, you want the story" he asked, " yes please, I told about mine and now I want to hear about you" I whispered, "of course" he answered, and he started to tell about him self and his life.

*Bryan's flashback*

Im the oldest of a kids flock of 5, I have 2 sisters and 2 brothers, you have already met Chris. But well, when I was growing up we didn't have a lot of money, and my mom was always working and so was my dad, but sometimes he was alone with us when my mom worked, and sometimes he had been drinking a lot when he got home, most of the times he just went to bed and let me take care of the little ones. But one night he came home drunk and he started to go nuts on my sisters and yelling at the, calling them names. I heard him from my room and ran downstairs, and when I entered the Livingroom he hand was over his head and he was about to hit one of my sisters, so I ran over and pushed him away and told the girls to run and hide, he fell down at the floor and got up and then grabbed his belt and started to beat me up with it until I was bleeding through my t-shirt. I never let out a sound while he did it, he then stopped and looked at me with fury in his eyes, I picked up a metal pipe or something and continued beating my back with it, I don't know how long he did it, but suddenly my mom came home and saw it. She flipped at him and he hit her, it was like he was in another place or he was another person. I got up and then rand over and tackled him to the ground to get him of my mother, and then I picked him up and threw him out. The next day we moved away from him and my mom filed for a divorce, and we never saw him again.

He looks down at me with tears in his eyes, "the memories is still stuck in my head, and that is way im so messed up, and why I had to leave you", he took a deep breath "i sometimes have anger issues and I don't want to hurt you", you put your hand on his cheek, "thank you for telling me, now I know why, but I know that deep inside you don't want to hurt me, and you won't, do you know why I know that?" I said as I sat up looking down at him, he shake his head, "i know because you are nothing like your dad babe, you are the most wonderful, caring, loving brother, you stood up to your dad and defended your sisters, brothers and you mother". He sat up and looked at me and kissed me on my lips, "thank you princess" he whispered. And you both laid backdown and cuddled and intertwined your fingers together. You put you head on his chest and listened to his heartbeat.
