I basically just copy and pasted this from my Kian Lawley [TTOIBF] imagine in my Diary of an Author. Don't check that out. Hue.

  Dex's POV

  "Hey guys! So this is my new girlfriend, [YN]!"

  I still remember hearing Tam (sorry Tam lovers) say it with such enthusiasm.

  And I remember the way my heart leapt up at the sight of her, then plummeted when I realized she wasn't mine..

~~

  "I'm Dex!"

  "You're so cute! I'm [YN], I hope we can be best friends!"

~~

  That was then.

~~

  "Oh man, what happened? I'll get the first aid kit!"

  "Tam was drunk..He said some stuff I didn't understand..Then he just..He started grabbing my hair and curled his hand into a fist and-"

~~

  He wasn't good to her.

~~

  "Yknow, you should really just come live with me if he keeps hurting you this way, he's been doing this for a month. [YN], he's not drunk anymore when he does this!"

  "Dex, it's..it's fine. He means well. I love him and I know that Tam loves me too. And love means going through thick and thin."

~~

  I don't know how she could be so blind. I wanted her to love me.

~~

  "I'm gonna give Tam a piece of my mind. You don't just bash a bottle over your girlfriend's head and laugh."

  She grabbed my wrist as I leaned over to dab more alcohol on her violent cuts adorning her scalp. I instinctively dropped the rag.

  "It's okay..I promise."She whispered. We remained silent for just a few seconds, and I leaned in. I couldn't control myself.

  I kissed her deeply, and she reciprocated. Her touch set my skin on fire. It was a feeling I didn't want to fade ever. I was gentle, careful not to touch any of her bruises or cuts that were still healing. We pulled away for air. Her deep [YEC] eyes stared into mine, tears rimming her eyelids. She smiled weakly.

  "Oh Dex..why are you so good to me.."She mumbled.

  "Because I love you."I whispered. She beamed at me and went back in for a kiss.

~~

  I thought that night meant something. I confessed it all to her. Straight in her face. But the next day she didn't come back.

  It was the same way for a few more days. And I got concerned. She returned one night, covered in fresh cuts and bruises. How could she bear to live with all of this pain?

  He didn't love her back. Tam Song was a monster to this woman. This woman who thought of him as a practical god. Worshipped the ground he walked on. Yet he was so busy with self indulgence and greed that he took one look at her and beat her til she couldn't look at him clearly. And he never broke once.

  She had so much love to give...

  And I never understood to this day why she never shared.

  What flaws did I hold that repelled her?
  Was I not good enough?
  Was I too kind?

  I knew nothing.

  I was but an elf. She was an angel.

  She saw no flaws in her abusive lover. She returned to his side, regardless whether he was unfaithful or violent. She loved him with all her heart. Though day after day, she was on her knees at his feet, slaving away for a man who felt nothing but hatred in his pitiful excuse for a heart. She gave him her all. Her everything. The angel offered all the pleasures and joy she could supply to the demon. And she held no doubts or regrets of his false love.

  While I was a plain old elf.

  I don't know if I'm stupid or just don't see the reason she sacrifices herself to an unchanging bastard right in front of me. It broke me apart to know she'd never be mine. Because all the love she had was for one man and one man only.

  He would always be the center of her interest.
  He would always be the one on her mind.
  He would always be the man she loved.
  He would always be the one she crawled back to.

  I wasn't shit. I was useless. She didn't want anything to do with me. Whether I liked it or not. Someday I just had to accept that if she had the choice of returning to me instead of Tam...

  She was never coming back.
