Enid | She Actually Cares
She's nothing like your Ex. Enid's your new girlfriend, and you've pretty much forgotten what it was like to be loved. Your ex was abusive.Enid was nothing like your ex.
Enid seemed to actually care about you. She didn't yell at you, she didn't make you feel small, and she definitely never raised a hand to you. Being with her almost felt foreign sometimes, like stepping into a life you had forgotten was possible.
The two were lying in bed, the room quiet except for the faint hum of the night outside. Enid was the one holding you, her arms draped softly around your middle, her warmth steady and grounding. Every so often, she nuzzled closer, her cheek brushing lightly against your hair as if to remind you she was still there.
She reached up with a hand to stroke your hair, but you flinched slightly—an old reflex you hadn't shaken. Your breath hitched, shame flickering in your chest before you could stop it.
"Hey, it's okay... I'm not gonna hurt you," she murmured, her voice low and soothing, like a promise she intended to keep. Her fingers lingered near your temple, not pushing, just waiting—gentle, patient, giving you the space to breathe.
