it's always been you.

"I don't even feel safe in my own home anymore."

I said to Finn and Sasha as I sighed.

"Every time I hear something fall I immediately wanna take cover."

I said, looking down.

"Hey. Don't let him break you again."

Sasha said, putting her hand on my arm.

"It's really hard Sasha. You have no idea what it's like to be his target when you've done nothing wrong."

I said as Finn looked at me with sympathy in his eyes.

"I just feel stuck. Like, what do we do now? We've tried beating him up, calling the police on him, hell, I've given myself to him. And it's not enough."

I said.

"I wonder what he even wanted in our house anyway."

I said.

"He wants me dead."

Finn said as Sasha and I stared at him.

"What?"

I asked.

"That's what he told me."

Finn said.

"No. No, no, no!"

I yelled as tears filled my eyes.

"Shhh. It's okay. Nothing is gonna happen."

Finn said, hugging me.

"I can't live without you. I can't do this without you."

I said, hugging him.

"You aren't losing me. He's not gonna win."

Finn said.

"I'm so scared Finn. I've never been more terrified."

I said.

"Don't be. I told you, I'm here. I'm here to protect you three. I love you."

"I love you too."

I said, wiping my tears.
