Matt tried the best he could to protect you from the cruel men in the world, but he couldn’t change the past. In high school you were an easy target and when those boys started playing too rough, who was gonna save her? Matt didn’t even know you then.
Things were different now, you’re older and now you have Matt by your side, he’s heard all about your experiences, good and bad. You never realized what real love was like until you experienced it with him. It wasn’t something you were use to which is why you didn’t know how to act when Matt approached you with such gentle and genuine words, everything he did he made sure you were completely okay with, he’d never even lay a finger on you if he didn’t have permission first.
You would think that now when you were laying in bed together after sharing your love with each other you would feel at peace, but the way Matt treated you made you realize just how much you were worth and that it was insane you’d even waste your time with those guys back in high school.
“Baby, are you okay? Did i do something you didn’t like?” he hesitantly stroked your cheek, but you weren’t upset, just grateful to have someone like him.
