Person A was in a long abusive relationship with someone (maybe someone from your NOTP) but no one knows this because the other person acted so good and kind around everyone else and Person A wasn’t brave enough to say anything. For one reason or another, they leave Person A who has at this point became very quiet and self-hating, but everyone assumes that is just because the “love of their life” has left them. After some time, they eventually end up going out with Person B. They still stick to their old habits (apologising a lot, acting very quiet, being scared that Person B will get mad and hurt them). Person B however, cares greatly for Person A and just assumes they are naturally shy and/or they’re a bit shaken from their last relationship. After a while of dating, Person B starts to get frustrated at Person A’s due to their meekness and gets so frustrated that they unintentionally start to raise they voice and are gesturing wildly, Person A instinctively uses their arms to cover themselves screaming “I’m sorry please don’t hurt me!”. Person B is horrified that they scared them so much, and apologies, saying that they would never hurt them. After Person A doesn’t believe them at first, but eventually realises that they are telling the truth and hugs them, crying into Person B’s arms. What happens next is up to you.
