"I haven't trusted anyone in years. How do I know you won't hurt me." I asked him 

"Because I know what it's like to be broken by people you thought you could trust. I promise I will love you and your daughter till the day I die and then till the end of time." He answered as he pulled me into his arms and in that moment I knew he wouldn't hurt me or my baby. I knew that for the first time in years I was safe and loved.
