*opens the door when Isabella knocks*

*pulls her in, closing the door as he hugs her*

Isabella.

[isabella_hicks]

*tears well up in her eye. hold him close*

Oh, God Evan. I'm so sorry.

[evan_covault]

*can't let her go*

I should have known what was going on. Damn it, I just I didn't see the entire picture. I'm sorry, Bella. I should have known when you couldn't say you didn't love me that my father was behind this.

*steps away, reaches into his pocket and pulls out her wedding rings*

Do not ever take these off again, Baby. It nearly killed me.

[isabella_hicks]

I didn't know what to do. I would die before I would let anyone hurt you. I just didn't know what to do.

*looks at the rings in her hand. smiles threw tears*

I thought the would have been in the fire.

*stares at her*

Don't you ever think I'd be better off without you because it's just not true.

[isabella_hicks]

And you're better off knowing these things about your Dad? I know what thats like, I never wanted you to know those thing or feel this way.

*looks down*

I never wanted you to feel like this.

Knowledge is power. It's what separates the weak from the strong. I'd rather know and be on guard than foolishly left to clinging to the belief that someday he'll change.

*kisses her gently, brushing the hair from her face*

Fuck them all, Isabella. Everyone who has ever hurt us or tried to make us weak. We don't need them. We have each other.

I love you, Bella. That's all that matters.

*moves into his lap. holding his face in her hand. smiles at him*

You and me against the world? I can deal with that.

*kisses him*

I love you, evan. More than anything.
