poisoned love (discontinued)

pain

This chapter is short but It's just an introduction to the story. Other chapters should be longer.

Dom's pov

Tears run down my cheeks silently. No noises are made. Not even a sniffle. How could I have been so stupid ? I think to myself. This is all my fault. Maybe I was right, maybe he was just putting up with me. Maybe he never loved me. I can't blame him I'm a mess. I'm unlovable.

Isaac's pov

I slam my door shut. I push over furniture.  My fists clench. My breathing becomes heavy. Why am I such an idiot ? Why do I always push people away? Of all people, I did that to Dom. The person I care about the most. I love him.  I open a cupboard and take out a brown cardboard box. It's filled with several items. All completely different.  If anyone else looked at this box they would think it's filled with rubbish but each object has a meaning. A story. I root around until I find what I'm looking for. I take it out of the box and trace my fingers over it. An old photo. It's crumpled and has creases but still remains in one piece.  There he is the man himself. My father always said I wasn't good enough. He always pushed me. Physically. Well he did a lot more than push. When he found out I was gay I ended up in hospital. The last thing he told me was that this is what love is. Hurt. He said he hurt me because he loved me. I was scared of love since. I liked being with Dom at the start but when things got more serious I was scared. Then my worst nightmare came true. I turned into my father.  I can't let Dom go through what I did. I wont let him feel that pain.
