I felt safe with him. I felt like at least he was a male that I could be friends with and could trust. Like I said, I was scared living alone and though I didn't tell Jeff what had happened, I did end up moving in with him. It was supposed to be just room mates. It didn't end up that way though.
Nothing ever stays the same.
So, here I am now. Darren hates me. I still love him with all my heart and soul. I never stopped. I don't think I ever will.
