Nothing was said on the way home. Hero didn't even look my way. Once we arrived at the apartment Hero gently cupped my hand in his and helped me out. We walked into the building still holding hands as we walked up to our apartment. He still wasn't talking to me as he lead me to the bedroom and sat me on the bed. He pulled the covers down and helped my lay down.
"Get some sleep Mia." he said while lifting my feet up and taking my shoes off before placing them under the covers and tucking me in. "We'll talk in the morning. I love you good night." He said before kissing my forehead and leaving.

I woke up with a headache as I sat up opening my eyes. Hero was sitting next to me with his legs hanging over the edge of the bed.
"Good morning."
"Good morning." I replied.
"Here take these." He said handing me two pills and a glass of water.
I gladly accepted. After taking the pills and drinking half the glass of water I put it the glass on the nightstand.
"Hero, I'm sorry.."
"Mia you know how scared you had me last night?" he cut me off.
"What?" I asked confused and shocked.
"Last night when I got the call that you were missing all I could think about was losing you. I love you so much it scares me to think about losing you. I thought you were gone again. Then when I located you at the club my nerves calmed down. All I wanted to do was wrap you in my arms and never let you go. Then I seen Ethan about to kiss you and I was outraged. I couldn't think straight. I know I'm not the best man and I know someone else would be there for you.."
"Hero," I said taking his face into my hands to make him look at me. "What I did was stupid and irresponsible. I shouldn't have you worrying and for that I am sorry and I promise to never do it ever again. You may not be the best man but you are the best man for me. You have been there through every struggle I have had with what happened to me and never once left my side. I will never leave you for another man I love you Hero with all of my.. "
I couldn't finish my sentence as he smashed his lips against mine. I happily met his force as our tongues started twirling together. He wrapped his arms around my waist as I wrapped mine around his shoulders. He gently pulled me onto his lap as our kiss got more passionate. After a minute of passionate making out he picked me up while still kissing me and laid me back down on the bed. I started pulling on his shirt letting him I wanted more. He stopped and leaned up looking down at me.
"Are you sure?" God his voice is so sexy.
"Yes." I said lowly in a soft tone causing him to smirk.
He raised me a little to take my top off then while he was removing his shirt I unhooked my bra before tossing it away. He quickly pulled my bottoms and panties off then removed his pants and boxers before he climbed on top of me. His body laid on top of mine as he rested his arm by my head.
"You can back out at anytime."
"I know." I said as I pulled him by the back of his neck towards me so I could kiss him.
He was so caring and gentle with me it was no where as hateful or painful as it was with my only time with that monster. Afterwards I fell back asleep with my head on his chest while my arm laid across his stomach with his arm wrapped behind my neck and wrapped over my side.

I woke up a short time after we fell asleep together. I looked down at Mia as she slept peacefully on my chest. I am so lucky to have her. She's so beautiful and strong. She's been through so much and still has a smile on her face. Her smile. When she smiles I feel my heart getting lighter and knot in my stomach when I'm around her. As I moved a strand of hair from over her eyes I heard keys in the front door. I know who it is because not too many have access to our place. I gently removed Mias arm then her head as I easily got out of bed so I don't wake her. I grabbed my boxers and slipped them on and headed out of our room. I quietly shut the door as I turned to face Kj and Jordan.
"Feeling better, H?" Kj asked handing me a coffee as I headed passed them to the living room area.
"Look I'm sorry about last night. How I talked to you.."
"No we get it. We failed you. We could of let the girl you love get hurt when we made a promise." Jordan said.
"I still shouldn't of talked to you like that."
"Look man all of us have been friends since we were in diapers. We've had arguments but we have always been there for each other. It's all water under the bridge." Kj said and Jordan nodded in agreement as Trevor walked in.
"I see that you and Mia made up." He said looking at me.
"What?" I asked confused.
"Look man you may want to deny it but that big hickey on your neck says it all."
"What?!" I said almost running to the mirror hanging up on the wall. Sure enough there was a big red hickey on the left side of my neck. I smirked and turned towards the guys.
"Hey man I wasn't going to say it." Jordan replied when I looked at him.
I looked at Kj who put his head down while smiling then all three of them started laughing. I walked into the bedroom to Mia who was sound asleep cuddling with my pillow.
"Love time to wake up." I said gently as I gave her arm a little shake.
She started moving then turned to face me. "Good morning again." She said smiling.
I gently rubbed her hair. "It's time to get up baby. Go freshen up and I'll get us some breakfast ok."
She nodded her head as she smiled. I leaned down and kissed her forehead. I walked back into the living room grabbing my wallet. I pulled some money out and handed it to Kj.
"Will you go pick us up some breakfast?" I asked as Mia came out of the room.
"Oh hey guys." She greeted but wasn't paying attention.
"Looks like you and Hero are twins today." Trevor stated.
I looked at her to see what he was talking about. Right there on the left side of her neck was a hickey. Unlike mine hers was huge and dark. She's going to kill me!
"What?" She asked confused as she grabbed the Bluetooth speaker off the table.
I looked at the guys with big pleading eyes.
"Nothing. I don't know what I'm saying. I had too much sugar this morning." Trevor replied.
"Ok you guys are weird when you had too much sugar." She said then gave me a kiss before returning to our room.
"How are you going to hide it from her?" Jordan asked as I heard the shower start.
"Yea it's not like you can keep her from a mirror. I mean she is a girl. They stay in the mirror." Kj commented.
"HERO!" We heard Mia shout angrily.
"Cat's out of the bag." Trevor stated.
"You wanted that breakfast now right?" Kj asked.
"I love you but I can't stay to watch her murder you. I'll be at your funeral though. I love you." Jordan said as they all rushed to the door.
"Cowards."
"We're going to miss you bro." Kj replied as the shut the door behind them.
I turned around and headed to the bedroom to face Mias wrath.

Mias pov
As we ate breakfast there was banging and arguing at the front door. I stood leaned over the island as Hero went to see what was going on.
He opened the door to almost get shoved back by the boys.
"Where is she?"
"Let us see her!"
"Move out of our way."
I knew those voices.
"Sorry H we tried to stop them to give you two more peace and quite." I heard Trevor say.
"It's ok they can come in." He stated as he stepped back to let everyone in.
They seen me and came rushing over.
"Mia are you ok?" Luna
"Are you hurt?" Peyton
"What did he do to you? I swear if he.." Brooklyn said before I cut her off.
"Guys I'm completely fine. Hero would never hurt me."
"Are you sure. I seen this thing where domestic violence victims are scared sometimes to say anything in front of their abusers. Blink twice if you feel unsafe with him." Luna tried to whisper not realising everyone could hear her.
I sighed while smiling and shaking my head. These three are something else.
"Mia," I looked over towards Hero. "I think its time to tell them everything."
I got nervous. "Are you sure about everything?"
"Yes baby I'm sure."
"Ok. Girls could you leave your phones out here for a bit?"
"What?" They asked confused.
"Please just hand them to the guys. Please for me."
"Fine but I swear it better not be destroyed." Peyton said handing hers over to Trevor.
"You better not do anything in my phone." Luna said to Kj as she handed hers to him.
"I better get mine back." Brooklyn said as she forfeited hers to Jordan.
They followed me into my room and I looked up at Hero.
"It's going to be ok." He reassured me before I shut the door.
