What I Thought We Were

I remember that evening very clearly, all these years afterwards.
I remember him holding me close, and whispering comforting words into my ear. I remember how he told me he would never let anyone hurt me ever again. I remember how he rocked me gently until I fell asleep because he knew I didn't want to leave. How I didn't want to be alone.
I look at him now, searching for that person who told me how no one could hurt me. Now he was hurting me, but this was a different kind of hurt.

Save Me
I was drowning. I knew that. I also knew that the hands around my throat, pushing me deeper into the river water was the cause. What I didn't know was who was drowning me and why. It hurt thinking. It hurt to do anything right now. But I still screamed under the cold water and pushed the hands away as hard as I could. It didn't have much effect. I fought and fought, but I was getting weaker, and colder. The pain was overbearing. I couldn't breathe. It was the worst pain imaginable; and as the hands that were around my neck were forcibly ripped off by some unknown force, I slipped deeper into the depths of the river. My hair was straight above me along with my arms. My eyes were open and the water burned. A darkness started to pull me under, taking the pain away. I felt a small pressure around my waist, before the darkness completely consumed me. The last thing I remember is thinking, save me.Complete
Too Complicated
"I remember his face, his eyes that begged for forgiveness, his body as it shook with anger and emotion. I remember how my world fell apart right before him and how he watched me completely disintegrate because of what he did. What he committed. The way he betrayed me. The heart he took from me and shattered. The trust I gave him that he threw away. He ruined it all, he ruined me. And now I'm forever broken, nothing can ever bring me back. Nothing."

BROKEN BY HIM ✔
I've known them my whole life. I grew up with them. I trusted them more than I trusted myself. But never in my wildest dreams did I imagine him- the sweet, quiet, lonely Aarav I protected since childhood- would be the one to shatter me. One move. One lie. One betrayal. And suddenly, everything I believed in collapsed. Now I'm walking away. From him. From our memories. From the girl who was too easy to break. This time, I'm chasing my dreams... not his shadows. And Aarav? He'll learn what it feels like to lose the one person who never gave up on him.Complete
Please Dont Let Me Go

Trapped. (1st Draft)
Two months ago, I was happy. I was in love. It wasn't until recently, things began to fall apart. Somehow, I thought that I could escape an old relationship. One where I was not as attached, but he was too attached. Him. I had nightmares. I could never forget his ice blue eyes. They held nothing in them. Every time I had looked into them, I saw nothing. I had been worried that maybe he didn't actually love me. Then I realized he loved me too much.Complete
Stuck
Matthew Parker was one of my closest friends out of our whole group. He and I had been practically inseparable since we met at a park at around 10 years old. He knew everything about me, and I thought that I had known everything about him. However, when he suddenly disappeared six months ago and then turned up dead in the woods just days later, I was left with many questions. I had begun to question whether or not I truly knew him. Everybody in the town loved Matthew, so in my mind the only logical explanation as to why somebody would want to harm him is that he was leading some sort of other life with a totally different group of friends. Maybe he'd gotten in with the wrong crowd while I had been at work and unable to spend time with him.Complete
