The Knight.

I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him back tenderly. I love him so much..

"Come on." I said softly, and I stood, taking her hand and gently pulling her alongside me to the bedroom. It was getting late.

I nodded and followed him, squeezing his hand gently. Once we were in there, I turned off the light.

I got dressed in my normal clothes, well, pants. I got my pyjama pants and I was shirtless. When I walked out of the bathtoom, I smiled, and I pulled her to me and I kissed her passionately.

I smiled and rested my hands on his shoulders, kissing him back deeply. Every time I kiss him I get butterflies in my stomach.

I hoped that she trusted me. I knew it would be a while before her and I did anything like before, but I could be patient. I gently pinned her to the wall, her wrists pinned at her sides.

I frowned slightly and then I had a sudden flashback. The other man pinning my arms to my sides while the man raped me.. I turned my head from the kiss and I struggled against him harshly. "Stop!"

I quickly stopped, and backed away, holding my hands up.. shit.. "Babe.. sorry. I.." I studdered..

I put my face in my hands and I turned away. "I'm sorry Charnley.. I'm just not ready." She whispered shakily.

"I.. wasnt going to do that I was just .. playing.." I said, and I shook my head slowly. "Ill.. go sleep on the couch.. sorry.." I said , quickly walking out the doorway

I took a few minutes to recover, then I slowly went to the living room. I looked down at him. "I'm so sorry." I whispered.

"Its fine. Ill just give you a little space. I didnt mean to scare you.." I said gently.

"I know.." I said, feeling ashamed. I sat next to him and took his hand. "Let's go to bed, okay?"

I sighed, and I got up and followed her. I felt bad for scaring her.. when we laid down I just faced, her not touching her or anything.

I sighed softly. "I keep forgetting who is the real enemy.." I whispered to myself. I scooted close to him and gently rested my forehead against his, my hand grabbing his. I felt horrible.

I stayed quiet and hesitantly put my arm around her and I closed my eyes.

I snuggled close to him and closed my eyes. "I love you." I whispered.

"Iloveyoutooo..." I mumbled before dozing off, and drifting off into a deep sleep.

After a few weeks, I slowly recovered. It was summer now, and I was at the store, buying stuff for my dorm. I can't believe I'm going to Julliard in 2 and a half months!

I was so happy that she got accepted. And I was also happy that she was recovering. I havent made any advances towards her at all recently, still scared that I would scare her again. But her going to Juilliard meant I would go to the police academy. Since I had the recommendation from the.one cop at her trial, I could get in easily.

I felt a little neglected from Charnley, but I understand why. He's scared that's he's going to scare me again. But still.. When I got home, I put the stuff I bought into a box and sat on the couch, tired.

"What did you get?" I asked, walking into the living room and looking into the box. "Stuff for Juilliard?" I asked.

I nodded and smiled up at him. "Yeah. I'm so excited!"

"And I'm excited for you." I said, and I walked over to her and kissed her gently. "I'm so proud of you." I said, she's made a lot of progress, recovering from what had happened and all

I smiled and wrapped my arms around his neck. "Thanks babe." I replied, leaning up to kiss him softly.

I snaked my arms around her waist and I smiled. "Let's go for a drive." I said. "The sunset is supposed to be beautiful tonight." I said,

I grinned. "Let's go to the hill! That's where we used to go watch the sunset remember?" I kissed his cheek and then went and got a blanket. I drove is to this hill and I played music from my car. We climbed up the hill and we sat on the blanket right as the sunset began. Pink and yellow lights lit the horizon. So beautiful.

I loved that area. We went in her car, and once there I sat beside her and I wrapped my arm around her side. "So beautiful.." I said, and I loved how secluded and away this spot was from anyone else. It was just us for at least a free miles.

I snuggled close to him and sighed contently. I let my hand rest on his knee as I watched the sunset. "I agree." I answered, looking up at him.

"Like you." I said cheesily, chuckling after I said it. I kissed her softly, my hand resting on her cheek as I did so.
