(A/N: So much Blink 182. #noregrets haha....sorry 'bout that....not really. I'm just trying to improve your music selection, okay? I promise I'll do something different for the next chapter, okay?(Maybe))
"Y/N?" I blink, then turn my head back towards Barry.
"Hm?" I murmur, looking into his concerned face.
"Did you hear what I said?" he asks softly, rubbing my hand gently. I knit my eyebrows, trying to recall.
"Um, no, sorry..." I sigh. He smiles encouragingly.
"That's okay. I was just asking you how you're feeling?" I bite my lip. I had just been informed that my boyfriend was in jail for an armed robbery, and abuse. It was hard to believe that a man I loved for so long had done something so horrible, and I couldn't remember it. I realized that Barry was still staring at me.
"Uh, fine." I murmur. He rubs my hand gently again.
"I'm here for you, okay?" he says softly. I smile slightly at him, and nod, squeezing his hand gently.
"Thank you, Barry. You're the best." He had been with me at the hospital for the past couple of days, leaving for work, but staying whenever he could. I stare at him a moment, thinking over what I had heard him say yesterday when he thought I couldn't hear...'I love you...'

"So...I probably should have asked this before we left the hospital..." Barry murmurs, chuckling, as we sit in his car in the hospital parking lot. "But, ah, where am I taking you?" I frown slightly.
"Oh. I didn't really think about it, I suppose..." I sigh slightly. He blushes a little.
"Well, you're welcome to stay with me, if you'd like." I bite my lip, looking down.
"I can't ask you to do that, Barry. You can just take me to a hotel." he grabs my hand gently.
"But I don't mind, you're no trouble at all." I pull my hand away slowly.
"No, it's fine. A hotel will be fine." I say softly, looking away. He recoils slightly.
"...right." he sighs, then pulls out of the parking lot silently. I stare out the window as we drive, thinking hard. I don't love Barry. I can't love him.
(Sorry that was so short! It was mostly a filler. :))
