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.

Heros pov

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.
