Chapter 1

Lynnette's P.O.V

I open my eyes and look at my phone. I see a text message and a voicemail from Ross.

The text says:

Call me ASAP, please. It's really important.

The voicemail;

Lynn, please call me. I-It's an emergency. Call me or come over or something. Please, I-I need help.

I sigh and dial his number.

"Hello?" He chokes out.

"Ross, are you okay? What happened?" I ask worryingly.

"C-can you come o-over?" He sobs into the phone.

I grab some clothes and throw them into a bag. "I'll be there in ten minutes." I sigh.

"Th-Thank you so much. See you then." He stammers and hangs up.

I grab my keys and run out the door, locking it behind me. After five minutes, I was in his driveway. I run up to the house and open the door. He was sitting on the floor in the living room, with his head in his hands. I set my bag down and walk over to him slowly. "Hey," I whisper, getting his attention.

He looks up at me with terrified eyes. "Y-You came." He says, in shock.

I nod. "Of course I did. What happened in here?" I ask as I glance at all the glass shattered everywhere.

"I-I lost my temper last night." He whimpers as I place a hand on his knee.

I move my hand and see he has a piece of glass in his leg. I pull it out and throw it somewhere. "Why?" I question and get up. I walk to the hall closet and get the vacuum.

He shrugs and climbs on the couch. I get a tissue and place it on his bloody knee. "I thought I lost you for good." He cries.

I sigh and shove my lips against his. "Obviously I'm still here." I mumble against his lips.

I pull back and stand up. I vacuum the living room and the kitchen. I walk back over to him, slowly. I sit on his lap sideways, burring my face in his neck. He twirls my hair for a while. "Wanna take a shower with me?" He offers about an hour later.

I nod and walk to the hallway to get my bag. We walk to the bathroom and he starts the shower. "Ross.." I whisper.

He spins around to look at me. "Hmm?" He asks, cocking an eyebrow. I felt tears spill from my eyes. He walks over to me and hugs me tightly. "It's okay, baby girl." He whispers in my ear.

"Let's get in." I say after a few minutes. He nods and we both strip. We step into the shower and I see all my stuff where I left it. We wash up before he pulls me into a hug.

He held me for about half an hour. "Want to get dressed and watch a movie?" He asks softly, slightly pulling back. I nod and wipe away some tears. "Okay, come on." He says as he gets out.

I shut off the water and follow him. I slowly slide on my skinny jeans and tight tank top. Ross sighs and walks out of the room. He walks back in with sweat pants and a sweatshirt. "Thank you." I mumble and quickly change. I brush through my long, blonde hair.

I walk out to the living room and sit on the couch. Ross comes in after me and sits next to me. I lay my head on his chest and he wraps his arm around my shoulder. "I missed you." He whispers half way through the movie.

I close my eyes and hold him tighter. "I missed us." I admit.

But, God only knows how long it'll be before he cheats on me again.
