Your Trauma Does Not Define You

 Your Trauma Does Not Define You

A Emily and Kieran one-shot

Kieran P.O.V.

Emily has been struggling lately. She's been very reserved, and drawn into herself. I know trauma can be hard, and she has good and bad days. This is one of those bad days, I just wish I could help her. "I know how I can make her feel better!" I thought out loud to myself. I went to get her favourite things, her favourite plushie, her favourite album on CD, and some gummy bears. I also grabbed the softest blanket we have, and of course she has the best husband in the world me. I went into our bedroom, and I found her sitting up with her knees drawn into her chest. "Hey baby, I brought you some things I thought might make you feel better." I said, laying everything out on the bed. She stared down at them, then slowly looked up at me. "I know you're dealing with a lot, maybe I could join you, and we could just hang out?" I offered. "Okay." She whispered. I sat down next to her. "Is it okay if I hold you?" I asked. She nodded, so I slowly wrapped my arms around her, protectively. I saw her relax at my touch. "Do you want anything?" I asked her. She pointed to her plushie, and I handed him to her. Emily snuggled up to Littlefoot, and she took a deep breath. "You are so strong, and brave, and I know you're gonna overcome this." I told her. "Let me tell you this my love, your trauma doesn't define you. I don't know exactly what you're feeling right now, but I can see that it has you very upset. I promise that you are the sweetest girl I have ever met, and you're so smart, and you make my life better." I told her. "I love you so much babygirl, and it breaks my heart when I see you feeling so down on yourself." I say while rubbing her back. "I just feel so ashamed, and disgusted, and I feel so stupid." She said, while crying. "Shh, shh, it's okay. You are not disgusting or stupid, you went through a lot with someone who was emotionally unavailable, and who only seemed to care about sex." I reassured her. "It's normal to feel ashamed, but I promise you don't have to be. You have come such a long way with your healing journey, and I know it's still hard some days, but I'll always be here to help you through them." I said, as I kissed her head. "I seriously want to punch your ex for hurting you so bad." I said through clenched teeth. Emily reached out her hand, and entertwined her fingers with mine. "I appreciate the thought, and thank you for saying everything." She said, kissing my hand. "I also promise you are always safe with me babygirl, you can tell me anything, and you can always cuddle with me to help you calm down or just because you want to be close to me." I said, while petting her hair. "I love you Kieran." She said. "I love you too." I whispered. Our lips met each other, and we shared a sweet and romantic kiss. "Are you feeling a little better?" I asked her, she nooded and I think I saw her smile. "That's good, would you like to listen to music, or watch a movie, or have a snack?" I asked. She shook her head, then said. "I just want to lay here with you, in this calming evironment." She said, yawning slightly. "Okay then my love, we can do that." I said, as we both got under the covers. We ended up falling asleep, but I didn't mind. I held my wife as she slept, hoping she could feel my protective arms holding her close. My silent promise that I wouldn't let anything else happen to her. 

The End

  Injured A Don't Shy Away Fanfic Oneshot "Hey babe, would it be okay if I went over to my parents for a bit?" Vee asked Henry, one afternoon. "Yeah of course baby." He said, smiling. "Okay, I'm just gonna stop by for a bit and help my mom with her garden." Vee said, kissing Henry on the cheek. After she left, Henry decided to go for a little walk. "It's such a beautiful day, oh look there's a bunny!" He said, seeing the cute little animal. As he was walking, he saw some guys up ahead. Henry recognized them from school, it was the bullies that always picked on him. "Oh no, not today." He said, feeling uneasy. He was getting closer to them, and really hoped they didn't want to start anything. But as he walked by them, one of the guys said: "hey Letterman! Where's your little girlfriend? Did she dump you? Because you're too much of a wimp?" He said, then his friends laughed with him. "Just ignore...
