Afraid Quote by Abi Ketner
““The last thing I want is for you to be afraid of me. But I want you to trust me. I need you to trust me." He sighs and I hear the pain and confusion in his voice. "Why?" "I don't know why and it scares the hell out of me." He swallows hard... Part of me screams for him to run for his own safety, but I don't want him to move. My heart begs... Please stay with me. Forever.””
