Crossing the line

Ok..first ever fic kinda nervous about it but think it turned out ok.

Storyline:

Brendan keeps hurting Ste, Ste keeps forgiving him but how long until Brendan goes to far?

Brendans :

Hes looking at me again. With his eyes full of sorrow and hes telling me that we could be happy if we did things "his way", I feel a sharp pang of anger run through me at his words. His way. We had already discussed this, it had to be on my terms, this was all supposed to be my way, not his. I see I can think about what i'm doing my clenched fist reaches out and connects loudly with his mouth. It catches him off guard and he falls to the floor with a thud. He looks up at me with tears in his eyes and blood dripping from his cut lip, rises to his feet and says slowly "That is the last time you ever touch me, you're on your own from now on".

I try to speak but no words come out. He turns away from me walks towards my front door opening it and then he is gone.

For now.

Ste's :

He promised me he wouldn't do this to me again, not after last time. He said that he'd change. That he would never hurt me again. He lied, I shake my head wondering why I'm so surprised. I sit at a bench at a nearby park and try to take in what has just happened.I run my finger over the now drying cut. Right, well thats it now , no more. I said to him the next time he did it that's it and I meant it. Didnt I?. Yes! I cant let him keep doing this. No more! "Its over" I say firmly to myself and I mean it.

For now.
