Perhaps it was the bruises that scrawled up my bare skin, or the hand prints that lied around my neck covered by hours and hours of applied makeup. I didn't really know how he knew, I never spoke to him about it, never ever about him, so what was I subconsciously doing that made him know.

"Fuck it." I grumbled,

The soda can I had been quicking slowly on the pavement I had booted down the road getting squashed by a car as it rolled along the road. What was I supposed to do, the last time I told someone they told me it was just life and to suck it up. I mean what was I supposed to do anyway, ask for help? In this area none of that happened we're thugs, street cats nothing else, you were to deal with your own issues your own way and that was how it was in these parts. I didn't really care anymore, so heaven be it I'll be dead before I even turn fifteen.

The sound of motorbikes roaring down the road makes me shake. Is it Baji or was it him? Motorbikes sound too familiar these days and I had to go with the worst option, it had to be him.

"Y/n!" He called

I dropped my head, as the motorbikes pulled up my cheek was yanked and our eyes met. What did I see in him when we first met, his anger was obvious, eyes were hidden by his knitted eyebrows and I can only guess the worst.

"Why haven't you been answering your fucking phone."

I could see him. I could see him standing there watching. He stood across from the road I was on, Chifuyu by his side and I felt embarrassed.

"I- I- did-n't turn my not-ifications on." I barely spat it out, barely audible either,

I could see his hand coming from a mile away. It stung, it hurt but I didn't cry I just stood there until the distant sounds. Baji and Chifuyu stood in front of me now and though the urge to cry was there I just couldn't.

"Y/n are you okay?"

His hand went up to my face yet I slapped it away in anger. Tears were forming but I couldn't help but slip a few though I fought so hard.

"Fuck off Baji."

"Y/n I can help you."

Fuck this. The fake fucking bullshit that someone else can actually help another it was dumb.

"No you can't Baji, no you can't no one can fucking help me."

He grabbed my arm as i tried to walk away,

"Y/n he doesn't love you! You shouldn't be treated like this."

I didn't listen to him I just stood there, he did love me he did he did I swear he did. He was just worried that it was my fault.

His arms slowly wrapped around me and those thoughts that he loved me stopped and guess reality struck me like a bus. My tears became dominant on my face, and I began to cry. I fucking hate it when people did this, I fucking hated this, I just contineud to cry.

His arms were large like arms to a bear as they wrapped around my body, his hand took my phone from my pocket but I didn't care. For once, someone actually understood me, understood what I was going through.

I knew what he was doing from a mile away, the buzz of the phone in the air and I knew exactly who he was dialing.

"Yeah, who is this?"

His own voice made me shake, what exactly was I supposed to feel. I felt week and dumb and so very stupid.

"Listen here you fucking touch or dare to think about y/n I will kill you and dump your body understood." He growled,

He hung the phone when the sling of curses came his way, he just turned it off and left it in the pocket of his uniform. He continued to hold me as his lips curled down upon laying softly perched upon my ear.

"I will keep you safe, you're a princess and I promise you'll never be treated like that again." he whispered,

"C-can you promise?"

"I promise.."
