Tessa:
"Noah please just leave, we are over, I have moved on and you need to too" I say
"Well see Theresa that just isn't going to happen as you are mine, so I'm having what is mine" and now I'm terrified
Noah grabs my head and forces his lips onto mine, it makes me feel sick. I try to fight Noah off me but he then punches me in the stomach which sends a sharp pain through my body.
He then turns my body and bends me over the sofa, that's when he lifts up my dress and pushes himself into me and I cry in pain from how forceful he is.
I shout, scream and cry out for people to come and save me but no one does and Noah ends up pushing my head into the sofa stopping my sounds from being heard.
I then pass out and all I feel is numb.
I then wake up to find Noah on top of me and I try to scream but he covers my mouth. Then he turns me over. I shout and scream to get help but no one comes. I'm stuck here with Noah in me. And I blank out.
I then wake up to Noah kicking, hitting and slapping me. I scream and yell out in pain.
"Tessa!"
"Tess!"
"Baby, wake up!"
"God please wake up!" I hear his voice, Hardin's voice and I realise he is trying to save me.
I open my eyes to see Hardin leaning over me shaking my body and shouting. I'm a shaking and sweaty mess. "You are okay Tess, I have got you, calm down" he says to me.
It was all a nightmare, an awful nightmare that was a reminder of the events from this evening.
"Tess, are you okay? I heard you shouting in your sleep and I have been trying to wake you up" he tells me looking into my eyes. I can see how scared he was for me in his eyes
"It was a nightmare, it was like a replay of what happened with Noah" I tell him and I feel tears fall down my face.
"Oh god baby" he says and brings me into his arms
"I'm so glad I have you Haridn" I say sobbing into his chest
"You'll be okay Tess" he says to me and he comforts me
"I love you Hardin" I say to him
"I love you Tess" he replies back to me
And then at some point I fall back asleep in Hardin's arms, he doesn't let go of me and keeps me close to his chest. I am so grateful to have Hardin, he has helped me so much, bringing me to the hospital, calming me down, cuddling me, comforting me and just being here for me. I love this boy so much.
...
Monday morning,
This morning I woke up in Hardin's arms and it felt so good. I did wake up quite early so I ended up just cuddling into him for a few more hours till I woke up again.
The doctor came in to see how I was doing. I told him I was okay. I was feeling some pain on my rib and shoulder but apart from that I was doing okay. He gave me my medication and then updated us by saying that I would only have to spend one more night in hospital then I could leave.
I'm definitely still feeling shaky from that nightmare. I don't usually get nightmares but that one last night was the most awful moment for me having to basically replay what happened to me.
A couple hours after we woke up, Vance and Kim showed up to the hospital. They were both really worried for me but I told them I was doing fine. They stayed for an hour and we just talked. It also gave Hardin time to go home and get changed and bring stuff for me too. He was very reluctant to leave me but all three of us told him I would be fine. Once Hardin came back to the hospital, Vance and Kim had to leave as they had to go back to work.
