Misery loves Company

Ryan was too shocked to react, the battle between his brain and heart had once again ended in the worst way possible. He knew he would never recover from this if the person with a hand held on his mouth was who he was thinking about. He did not want to think about it, but the memories were flooding his senses. 

All the anxiety he ever felt when he was around was coming back. This could not be happening. This was not going to happen to him again. He was going to fight back even if this was his last day. And if he was going to ill him, then he was not going to go easy on him. 

He was no longer the helpless kid he once was, he was a strong man, one who knew how to fight, one who could defend himself, he was the man people feared, but he was the man who feared him. Years had gone by but the ghosts of the past would never let go. But he would prove to himself that he was strong, right?
