Ellie has been in very unhealthy relationships in her past, something she unfortunately got used to and thought she deserved it. Since her self-esteem wasn't great, she couldn't do much or speak up for herself.
She had the courage to leave those toxic and unhealthy relationships behind, to escape and live her own life at her own rhythm. But still, she's afraid of new relationships, of what if all happens again?.
But everything changed when she met you. You treat her so well, you care about her and love her the way she couldn't love herself. A part of her thinks she doesn't deserve this trait, but you will show her that's not true at all.
"You know," she starts, a sigh escaping her lips while she plays with the neck of your shirt, her head lifting from your chest to look at you. "I've never felt so.. Alive, with nobody. You make me feel human." she confesses, her voice slightly breaking as she speaks, her eyes trying to avoid yours.
