"I hate her!" I yelled into Emmett's chest as he held me. We where sitting on his bed after we both had gotten into a fight with my mother. He had drove me home after our date and walked me to the door when she came outside and started yelling at us. He pulled me away and drove us to his house then to try and protect me.

This was the fifth time this month that my mother had yelled at us. She hated that I chose him over Royce. She wanted the money that Royce's family had so she tried to make me marry him even after he raped me. She didn't care. She said I was lying and that I was just trying to get attention.

She hated Emmett only because his family wasn't rich and because he was "taking my chance of being happy away from me". What a load of crap. He made me happier than anyone else ever could. He was there for me after what Royce had done. He didn't care that I was damaged, he still stood by my side.

He also stood by my side every time me mother yelled at me like now.

"No you don't sweetheart. I know what she's trying to do is wrong but she's still your mother." he said soft and soothingly in my ear.

"She doesn't even care!" I sobbed.

I was soaking his shirt but he didn't care. He just held me and rubbed my back in small, soothing circles.

"She does too. She just doesn't know how to show it." he said.

"Well she better learn fast because I'm gonna get an emancipation soon!" I sobbed again.

"You don't want to do that honey. I'll talk to her if you want me to?" he whispered into my hair.

"She won't listen. The only time she will is if you wave a hundred dollar bill in front of her face!" I yelled again. I didn't mean to yell at him and I hope he knew that I wasn't mad at him for his suggesting.

"Shh. It'll be okay sweetie. I know, I know. We'll figure something out." he cued.

I was so thankful that he was here with me because otherwise I wouldn't know what to do. He has always been there for me and I know he always will be because I trust him with all my heart.

"Thank you." I whispered to him looking up into his eyes.

"For what?" he whispered back moving one of his hands to cup the side of my face.

"Everything. For being here for me and listening to me even after all my mothers done to try and tear us apart." I told him honestly. Fresh tears streaming down my cheeks.

He wiped them away with his thumb and kissed me on my forehead before gently pecking my lips.

"I'll always be here for you. No matter who or what tries to get between us. They don't matter. The only thing that matters is that I love you. I always will." he said looking into my eyes.

More tears spilt over but they were different. They were tears of joy. It was the first time he had told me he loved me.

"I love you too" I said smiling. He smiled too and I could see his dimples in the dim light.

"You need to get some rest. Come on, I'll drive you back home." he said as he started to get up. But I grabbed his arm stopping him.

"Can I stay here tonight? I don't want to face my mom just yet." I asked a little embarrassed, but I knew he would never try to hurt me.

He just smiled and walked over to turn the light all the way off. Then he walked over to the side I was sitting on. He picked me up and pulled the covers back laying me back down before he got in beside me and wrapped his arms around me.

"Goodnight, angel. I love you." he whispered kissing my forehead as I snuggled into his embrace and let sleep wash over me.
