Can I Trust You?

Chapter 5

(SID POV)

Tonight is the night of mine and Gracie's date and I can't wait. I'm taking her to the LeMont for dinner, then we will be watching movies at my place. I seriously can't wait to see her soon.
It was a shocker, but I even cleaned my house. I didn't have a mess in the house but I wanted it spotless. During the movies I can't wait to hold her in my arms and cuddle on the couch. Just a nice relaxing night with my girl. Now that's a way to spend your night off.

A couple years ago, I didn't focus on girls. I just focused on hockey, 24/7. I went out with the guys after games, but I never hooked up with anybody. It wasn't until I suffered my concussion that I knew what I had been missing. When I was sitting home by myself, bored out of my mind, not being able to play hockey, I wanted someone with me.

I think Gracie would be perfect. She is someone I could see myself going to if I need support for something besides my parents, the team, and Mario. She's so perfect and amazing to have around.

*DATE TIME*

Next thing I know, I'm on my way to pick up Gracie for our date. I know that no matter what she's wearing she will look beautiful. She's always beautiful. When I pulled up at her house, I suddenly got very nervous. I wanted this to be perfect for her because she deserves it.

When I rang the doorbell, I could hear Gracie's heels clicking along the floor and I immediately smiled. I held my breath as she opened the door, and she looked beautiful when I saw her.
"Hey babe," she smiled.
"Hey beautiful! You ready?" I asked.
"Yup just let me get my jacket," she said before she disappeared behind the door. "Okay I'm ready!"

*AT THE LEMONT*

I think Gracie was surprised when we got to the LeMont. After I gave the valet my car, we walked in and went to the table I had reserved. Our table looks over the city of Pittsburgh and obviously the rivers. The city is all lit up at night so I figured it would be nice for us to see together.

"Oh my god, Sid. This is beautiful. I can't believe you did this. Thank you," she said right before she turned and gave me a hug and kiss. I was about to deepen the kiss when she pulled away and pulled me to the table. Before she could pull it out, I pulled out her chair for her and waited until she sat down.
"Thank you"
"You're welcome baby"

(GRACIE POV)

Dinner is amazing so far. Sid is the perfect gentleman tonight. Then again he always is. He's also looking very handsome tonight. Wearing a pair of black slacks with a nice white dress shirt. It was open a little a bit at the top around his muscular neck and chest. He looks like a model right now.
"Have I told you how beautiful you look tonight?" Sid asked with a grin breaking me out of my thoughts.
"Maybe once or twice," I said with a flirty grin.
"Well you look absolutely beautiful and gorgeous tonight. Although you always do look beautiful and gorgeous," he said.
He was making me blush like crazy, "Thank you. And if you saw me in like big sweats and no makeup, you may think differently."
"I doubt that beautiful."
I couldn't help but blush even deeper, when he called me beautiful again. He makes me feel beautiful, more than I had ever thought that I was.

"Would you like to get dessert or no?" Sid asked.
"You wanna split something with me?" I asked in return.
"Sure. What do you want?"
"Umm, they have chocolate cake with chocolate moose on the side. It also had chocolate drizzle. How 'bout that?"
"Sure sounds good."

When our dessert came, Sid had put some on his fork and held it out to me for the first bite. I have to say I did giggle when I realized what he was doing. I also think I moaned when I ate it because it's so delicious.

On the way back to his house, we sat in a comfortable silence listening to the radio and holding hands. When we got to his house, my jaw dropped. His house was beautiful.
"You okay baby?" he asked breaking me out of my trance.
"Yeah. Your house is beautiful."
"Thanks. I actually tore down the house that was here and rebuilt it to my taste and style. I have to say I like it though."
"It's gorgeous."
"Wait till you get inside," he smiled.
He was right. It was absolutely beautiful inside. You could also tell a hockey player lives here by the memorabilia that's in the house.
"Wow"
"I'm guessing you like it?"
"Yes! It's beautiful! Did you design it yourself?"
"I had some help from my mom and Nathalie Lemieux. Mario helped with my office since I have all my hockey memorabilia in there," he said with a shy smile and a hint of embarrassment.
"Aww, you don't have to be shy or embarrased. Believe me, if I were you, I would do the same thing."
"Thanks, so let me give you the grand tour"
Walking through his house was like a mansion. He had a huge kitchen with a big dining room off of it. A big living room with a flat screen TV. He had a game room and gym in the basement downstairs. Of course he would have that.
"And finally my bedroom."
When he opened the French doors to the master bedroom, I about died. It was huge! He had light gray walls with smooth black furniture. His bed was a white King sized bed. So big, it looked fluffy.
"Holy crap this is huge!"
"Haha yeah I know. Wait, you didn't see the master bath," he said with a smile.
I wanted to live in that bathroom. It had a lot of counter space, which held all his stuff, next to the sink. He had a walk in shower with glass doors and looked to be a seat in there on the wall. And then the Jacuzzi tub. I wanted to climb in there and never come out.
"Wow this is beautiful. Your whole house is beautiful, Sid."
"Thanks. I'm glad you like it. Wanna go watch some movies?"
"Sure."

Going downstairs, I knew I had to tell him, now. I wanna be honest with him, and tell him my past because I can trust him. I know I'm risking a lot right now, mainly this relationship, but I have to get this out there.
"Angel you okay? You kinda spaced out on me for a few minutes," Sid said behind me on the couch.
"Um, yeah. Listen can I talk to you? I need to tell you something that I want you to know," I saw a flash of fear across his face when I said that.
"Yeah sure, o-okay," he stuttered.
When he sat on the couch facing me, I turned more to face him. I took a couple deep breaths trying to figure out how to tell him. "Baby? What's wrong?"
"I need to tell you about what happened in my last relationship. I need to get this out before we go any further with our relationship," I said with a scared voice.
"Baby you can tell me anything. You can trust me."
"Okay. Here goes. So about a year ago, I met my ex-boyfriend, Jason. He seemed nice and sweet at first. So we started going out and I kinda found myself falling for him. We were together for six months. About a month or so before I broke up with him, he started going out with the guys and getting drunk. I didn't know until later that he was cheating on me as well. But one night I didn't know he was drunk when he called me to go to his house. When I got there is when I found out. He started talking about random things and I had stopped him and told him I was getting him water and aspirin. Well he stopped me by grabbing my arm really hard and started yelling at me. I started crying and told him to stop but he didn't. All of a sudden he had hit me. He had hit me a couple of times before he went to bed. In the morning he saw my arm from him grabbing it and saw the rest of the bruises starting to form and he started apologizing saying he didn't mean it and would never do it again. Except he did. He was too over protective and had to know where I was going and who I was with no matter what. If we went out, he got pissed at anybody who came near me. Obviously guys, even if it was his friends. A month or so later, he was on a trip down south with the guys and I decided that I had to get out of there so I packed and left. Luckily, I had kept my apartment. I couldn't be with him anymore. I went home and unpacked and changed my locks and blocked his number. I was stupid to fall for him and stay with him even while beating me and cheating on me," I finished up while crying.
I had started crying not long after I started telling him. I couldn't bear to look at Sid because I knew what was coming next. "Look, I had to tell you. I couldn't keep it from you any longer. I understand if you don't wanna be with me anymore after hearing about how stupid I was to stay with him. I just thought you should know," I said.

He was still quiet so I had just given up and got off the couch and headed towards the door. I didn't get far from the couch because Sid suddenly lightly grabbed my arm, just light enough to want me to turn around.

"Don't leave baby. I'm not ending this relationship because of your past. I'm not like that. I will never hurt you in any way no matter what. I know we might have our arguments down the road, but I'm not going to hurt you. Ever. C'mere," Sid said looking straight into my eyes. I knew then that everything would be okay.

(SID POV)

I can't believe that happened to her. No one deserves that. No guy should ever lay his hand on a woman. I was serious when I told her I would never hurt her. She means a lot to me and I wouldn't do that. To anyone actually. When she walked into my arms, I held onto her like the world was ending. I wanna protect her as much as I can because I don't want anything happening to her. If I ever see or meet Jason (I can't even say/think his name without clutching my fists), I will make him regret everything he did to her.

"I'm so sorry this happened to you baby," I say kissing the top of her head. I'm also rubbing her back soothingly to try and calm her down. As soon as she was in my arms, she started sobbing like crazy. Honestly, it took all I had not to cry myself just imagining it happening. "I'm glad you told me. I'm pissed off to no ends that it happened to you though. I will threaten his life if he ever comes near you. You're my girl and I won't let a damn thing happen to you."

"Thank you Sid. I was afraid you wouldn't want anything to do with me after I told you. I was so scared to lose you because I care about you so much and I really like you. I know you would never do anything to hurt me. That's why I told you and trust you," she told me after calming down enough to be able to get words out.

I was still rubbing her back even after she pulled back enough to look me in the eyes. That was when I knew we were in this for the long run. I find myself falling for her more and more even though it's only been a number of days.

"You still wanna watch some movies?" I asked her quietly.
She nodded her head yes and said, "Can I have something to change into? I don't wanna be uncomfortable during the movies."
"Of course sweetheart," I said kissing her temple. I felt her smile against my neck and she pulled me down to kiss her lips. I wasn't going to resist that.
"Be right back. You can go ahead and look through the movies and pick out what you want. Your choice," I smiled.
"Okay," she pecked my cheek before going into the living room.

During the movies, Gracie and I had done nothing but cuddle with each other on the couch. That's all I really wanted, was to have her in my arms with me, where I can keep her safe. She ended up falling asleep at some point during the third movie. She was so cute and peaceful when she was asleep. I figured that bed would be more comfortable, I gently lifted her into my arms and took her upstairs to my room. She sighed and shifted slightly when I picked her up and cuddled into me.

When we got upstairs, I laid her down in bed while I stripped to my boxers and slipped under the covers with her. She immediately cuddled into me when I pulled her to me. I smiled and pushed a few strands of her hair away from her face behind her ear. I kissed her head and just holding her made me fall asleep with a smile on my face.
