Dan Smith x reader

Listen lads, i know he is engaged and none of you will be interested in this but I love it so here we are

⚠️TW: mention of SH and abuse⚠️

POV: y/n is haunted by a nightmare and copes in a bad way but someone helps her through it

(Y/n's pov:)
"NO!! Get away from me, I'm sorry please let me go" my throat was hoarse from all the screaming. My ex's grip on my wrists holding me onto the bed tightened causing a throbbing pain in my arms. "Not until I'm done with you, maybe this time you'll learn to behave" his breath was pure alcohol, hot tears fell down my face as I continued to struggle.

He slapped me, the ring on his finger cutting my cheek allowing blood to mix with tears. "Listen hear Bitch your nothing to me and everyone you love, no one loves you, your fat, ugly and useless. A PATHETIC WASTE OF TIME.

A scream escaped my trembling lips, I forgot where I was until I felt the weight of anothervpefson next to me. Dan lay there peacefully, he was always a light sleeper but he was dead tired after just coming back from touring.

I slide to stand up, my legs shaking as I make my way to the bathroom. Running cold water in my face I look in the mirror, the dark rings under my eyes taunting my. He's right.

I sigh and grab a small box hidden in the drawer, opening the red box a sliver glint catches my eye. Slowly taking it in my trembling fingers I bring it down on my wrist, one cut for each nightmare, one cut to show my weakness.

Once the numbness that's in my eyes overtakes my brain I dro the stained razor back in the box and hide it again. Not bothering to clean my arm, I head straight to the studio/living room. I sink into the couch and stare blankly at the wall.

His words spin in my head, the thoughts take over so much that I don't hear the small patter of foot steps enter the room.

(Dan's Pov:)
The sound of a door closing wakes me up from my surprisingly deep sleep. U check the time 3:30am, I rib the sleep from my eye and glance to my left to see the love of my life is gone. I slowly get out if bed, pulling down the sleeves of my long sleep shirt down.

My steps echo through the silent house, I head to the studio/living room, knowing it's the favourite place in the house. I find her sitting on the floor staring at the wall. I cautiously step closer to her.

I drop down in front of her, watching as her eyes slowly meet mine, my ice blue eyes gaze lovingly into her oak brown ones.

"I'm sorry" she barely whispers her eyes filling with tears, I glance down and to my horror, 3 fresh cuts litter her upper arm. God no, not her too.

"Just tell me what happened" I ask in the sofest voice I have, my hands slowly grasps her. She grips them for dear life, afraid I would let go.

"He came back,... While you were gone, my ex broke down the door and then... he pinned me to the bed.. then.." She can't finish her sentence as she burst into tears, I immediately pull her to me. She sits on my lap sobbing into my shirt.

"I'm so sorry, I wasn't here, oh god I'm sorry, I promise I'm never leaving you here again. I'll always take you with me" I say into her hair. I'm such an idiot I should have never left her here. I failed at the one thing I promised I would do.

"Come on let's clean you up" I pick her up bridal style abd carry her to the bedroom, I grab the med kit form under the bed and wrap her cuts. I then pull the sheets over us. I lay on my back and she rests her head on my chest, I feel arms wrap around my stomach.

"Dan" a voice barely above a whisper says.

"Yeah"

"Why is there a med kit under the bed"
My breath hitches in my throat. Shit, she knows. I don't answer but instead look away from her gaze. My eyes glass over ad everyone reason finds its way into my anxious filled mind.

"Dan, look at me" I turn my head to look straight into her woodland eyes. Tears start to run down my face.

"Why did you never tell me, Please Dan tell me"

"I..I struggled as a kid, I have always had problems with my weight, going constantly from thin to fat, but I never saw anything apart from a chubby little kid, hmm, then there was the bullying. God it just to much. So I found a way to release it"

I pull up my sleeve, the thick dark lines still reside there, reminding me I'm nothing. Y/n sees my and hesitantly feels each of my scars.

" you know what I see Dan, I see a man who deserves everything in this world. Your a pure hearted man who I will forever and always love"

I look at her and kiss her,

" Goodnight my love"
" Goodnight Dan"
