Something Is Wrong With Me.........

Part 13

Tell the truth or go. 

I wrapped my arms around his neck as I began to tell the tale of a girl. More of a it. "No one was there for it to lean on, and when they were they just pushed it off their shoulder. He told me I was pretty" I began as tears stung my eyes.

Flashback-

I just laid there. Not screaming, or crying. Just laid there. I was tired of fighting back, it did very little to help. I was useless.

I just looked at the little grey wall, or what I thought looked like a grey wall. Seeing or imagining, pictures of my father, mother and older brother. My mother, before she started drinking. Before my father had left us. Before my brother texted "Love You" seconds to me before he died. That's when the movement stopped. He got off of me, and sat me up-right. He ran his fingers through my hair, and told me how I was pretty. He fixed my blouse and wiped the tears from my red eyes. Then told me to leave and never tell a soul.

"Dawn please just stop." Colson said as he shook me back into reality. I blinked twice into what used to be blue eyes, and what now are grey eyes. He held me tight and kissed my head. I heard him sob a few times, and felt something wet on my head. He was crying. I was crying. We were both crying. 

"Dawn, when I find this guy-".

"Revenge wont fix anything. It will just make it worse. You can't do anything to him to fix what he did to me. Beat him up, kill him, do whatever. But you can't erase what he did to hurt me."

"But what he did to you isn't right! That son of a bitch should have never laid his hands on you like that. Dawn, if he's done this to you. I can't imagine the countless other females he's ever touched." Colson was right. But it was too painful to talk about right now.

"Lets talk about this later Colson" I said wrapping my arms around his neck. But he pulled away from me. He got off the bed, and into the bathroom. At that moment it felt like he was everyone I thought loved me. Pushing me off his shoulder was the exact replica of what others have done to me.

He came back and stood their just for a second. Looking into my hazel eyes. "Dawn... I love you."

"I... love you too." I got off the bed and walked over to him, then he picked me up and spun me. I rested my head on his chest it felt like the only safe place in the world.

"I love you."

"I love you too Colson." I repeated back. This time kissing him on the lips.

I love you was all we said to each other in between kisses.

And we meant it...
