Tobin
The words weren't planned. They floated out of his mouth like a dream.
"Will you marry me?"
She had been leaning in to kiss him again, but as the words escaped him, she stopped abruptly, her eyes boring into his own as though they could see everything inside him, and he squirmed uncomfortable, disconcerted by the depth of her gaze. "You can't be serious," she said finally. "Are you?"
"I...I think I am." The moment he said it, he flinched.
"You think you are?" She was still watching him with that probing look. "Then you aren't."
He glanced away. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean...I just, I..."
"Don't apologize."
"Don't sound so pissed." She glanced up from the study of her hands. "I thought you'd be happy. I thought you loved me." He stopped for a minute, feeling almost as though he might cry. Don't be such a baby, he scolded himself. She was just taken off guard. "I know I love you."
"Tobin, of course I love you," she whispered. "And I want you to know that I do see us getting married someday. Just...not yet. I'm too young. I want to live a little first."
"Are you...breaking up with me?" Her words were almost like, I think we should see other people.
"No!" She sounded scandalized. "I love you, and I want to be with you, but I don't want to promise you that commitment until I know for sure that I can be the woman you need me to be."
"You are," he whispered. "Kris, there is no one else for me."
She slid her hand into his and squeezed it. "You know what?" she murmured. "I said I would do anything for you, and I will. Tobin, I promise you this: someday. Someday I will marry you."
Beth
His hands upon her skin...he struck her over and over again...her skin so bruised…her eyes so swollen…
Then it changed…
She and Kris at the beach, laughing as they ran into the lapping waves, arms thrown around each other’s shoulders--the picture of friendship…
And again it changed…
She and Nick, on her bed, naked and moaning and the door flying open and Kris’s shocked face and her screamed words that cut so deep…
The picture was changing once more…
Her in the abortion clinic, lying on the bed, staring around at the stark white emptiness of everything around her--the blank walls, the white paper she lay on top of, the white ceiling…the heartless man…
Her own heart screaming…
And then once more it changed.
And his hands were striking her once more.
