3 years, 9 weeks, 10 days, 36 hrs, and 1,000 secs; is how long I have been locked up in the orphanage. I hate is no freedom, constantly getting picked just to get abused and dropped back off. They say they love you, care for you, and is there to protect you but that's just a load of bull shit. I'm Kimberly and this is how I found out that love and protection is true. Author Note: In the first sentence I was just trying to be dramatic I know that it is inaccurate.

She is not cold. She is tired. Ruth has spent so long surviving her own mind that loving someone feels like another responsibility she might fail. She pushes. She withdraws. She convinces herself she is protecting him. Dylan loves without knowing where to stop. He stays when it would be easier to leave. He calls it devotion. He does not realize it is slowly costing him pieces of himself. When honesty finally breaks through, love is no longer soft. It is heavy. It is breathless. It is two people trying not to drown while holding on to each other. "And You Stayed" is not about perfect romance. It is about what happens when love is real but oxygen is not. For readers who believe staying is sometimes harder than leaving.
