You sigh as you scroll through yet another series of angry texts from Nick. His jealousy and possessiveness were growing by the day, but no matter how many fights y’all had, you couldn't bring yourself to leave him. There was something about his passion, however misguided, that kept drawing you back in.

You started typing a reply to calm him down when there was a knock at the door. Opening it, you came face to face with Nick, eyes red and breathing heavily. "I'm sorry, I just couldn't stay away," he said, pulling you into a tight embrace. You wanted to resist, but his touch still sent electricity through your veins.

Nick buried his face in your hair. "The thought of losing you kills me inside. I'll try to control it, just please...don't leave me."
