My Only Exception

I ran to my bathroom,slamming the door behind me and Locking it.I looked at my reflection in the mirror, my hair a mess but I really didn't bother to care at this point.My eyes puffy and red, remains of smeared eyeliner around my eyes and cheeks.They were all right.I open up a drawer and frantically search for the small box in the back.A tear falls from my face as I open up the small covering.There was a banging on the door.I grab the small blade and sit on the small mat in front of the sink. "Angela,Please open it up. I'm sorry...Ange I don't care,That stuff happened in your past." Tears came tumbling from my eyes."Baby, I love you...please.I know what you're doing Ange, please." I could hear him struggling to hold back the tears.Then knocking stopped and A few minutes later there was jiggling on the door, before it was pushed open. "Ange" he said coming towards me and wrapping my frail body in his arms.I was too tired and weak to protest. "I'm sorry" I manage to get out as he placed me down on the bed. "I...I couldn't stop" I say looking away.I couldn't face him at this moment, knowing what I had done.He grabbed my wrist and placed gentle kisses on the fresh wounds."I just...I wasn't thinking-" He was cut off as pulled him close connecting our lips and tugging on at his hair. "I love you Ange.Even after all this...crazy shit that we have gone through." He says breaking away and cupping my cheeks. "I love you." I say softly placing another soft kiss on his lips. "I honestly don't know why you still put up with me...with all this baggage" I Admit. "Its not...baggage. I know about most of it, so I knew what I was getting myself into. Honestly if it was anyone else,I wouldn't still be here. I am in love with you and that means everything that comes with you, that means all this...'baggage',For you, I'm making an exception" He says placing a kiss on the tip of my nose.I smile at him as he places his hands in mine. "Of course you already know... that you're mine" I say
