"Well? Are you going to tell me what's up with you or not?" I asked ungraciously.

"Look, I don't want you to worry about me at all and I don't know if it will be best for me to tell you when you're better." He spoke whilst looking into my eyes. I took both his hands and held them firmly.

"Tell me, I love you, Mason."

"I love you too but are you sure you want to know? You have to promise me that you won't judge me or think any less of me, Okay?"

"Okay, just tell me!"

"Well, when I was 4, my dad died and ever since that day my mum has always blamed me for it, she put me through years of abuse and hurt and I didn't want to tell you because of what happened with your dad but the reason why I'm here for you and making sure you're okay and when your dad came here to see you I didn't want him to because my mum did exactly the same and I just love you so much Lauren and I don't want anyone to hurt you." tears were rolling down his face.

"Wait, what do you mean when my dad came to see me?"

"I wanted to tell you but you were so ill I thought it was best not to." he said whilst I let go of his hands.

"Why didn't you tell me? What happened? Was my mum there? Did he hurt her a-"

"He tried to hurt her but I helped her and Jodie called the police and he got arrested, again." he cut me off.

"How did he know I was here?"

"I think he might've seen something on Facebook."

I knew I should have blocked him before I let Mason use my phone but at least he can't come back now I guess. The first time I remember him hurting me was in this hospital. He told me my mum had 'fell down the stairs' which I now know, he pushed her. I was 5. I asked him for some money so I could get something from the vending machine, he said "You don't need any food you're fat enough already." whilst pushing me to the floor and standing on my hand whilst he walked away. I don't know why I didn't tell my mum. I could've stopped years of hurt for her, but then again, would she have believed me?

"At least he's gone, but listen, if you ever need anyone to talk to I am always here for you like you are for me. You mean so much to me and I don't know if I could've pulled through this without you." I said sitting back down in front of him. He cupped my face in the palms of his hands and pulled me closer to him, he bit his lip whilst looking at mine and then looked me in the eyes and whispered "I love you Lauren Roscoe." and then proceeded to kiss me passionately. This was the first time I had ever kissed someone and it took my breath away. Mason was so perfect in so many ways, he was absolutely gorgeous and way out of my league but he also had the biggest, warmest most kind heart and the way he treated everyone else and put everyone before himself made me feel warm inside. He was the best thing to happen to me in a long time.

I had been in hospital now for three months. I had forgotten about what I was there for, yes there was times where I didn't want to eat and felt fat and disgusted at myself but I knew it wasn't going to be a straight and easy recovery. My mum and Mason were with me almost 24/7 and helped me through everything. Rebecca was always there if I needed to talk about anything and now I had told her how I really feel there is a chance of me being let out soon with a care plan. Everything is looking up for me now, I couldn't be happier.
