it's been three weeks since euria had to get jaw wires in her mouth, three weeks since her "boyfriend" eli have ghosted her, three weeks since all her friends but miguel and sam have ghosted her. kenna moved into tory's house, because she's now dating tory.
miguel has been an absolute angel to euria, constantly getting something she needs, even though he knows she can do it herself, he just likes being able to babie her in a way. miguel doesn't know it yet, but he definitely fallen for her.
euria is starting to be able to talk a bit more, she just has to be careful on the way she moves her jaw. sam has been there for euria more than any of her other friends, besides miguel of course.

"euria, do you want anything?" miguel asked her, grabbing his coat so he can head out to the store.

"no" she spoke back. he nodded his head and walked out of the front door. he noticed she's been sad a bit lately, he knows it might have something to do with eli. so he walked down to eli's house and knocked on the door.

eli opened the door to see miguel was standing there "oh hey man, what are you doing here?"

"do you care about your girlfriend? like at all?" miguel questions him. "like do you not care that it's been three weeks since you've spoken to her?"

eli shrugged his shoulders "if you're talking about euria, i thought it was pretty clear that she would rather be with you by the looks of her instagram"

"that's because i've been taking care of her! something you should be doing!" miguel yells but not loud enough to disturb anyone.

"miguel, it isn't no surprise that she is all over you. she does it a lot.  first robby, then tory, then me and now you"

miguel was building up with anger, he wanted to punch eli but he knew that he shouldn't do it.

"i mean come on miguel, her legs were wrapped around you in one of the photos, seems pretty whorey to me, which is why i'm with yasmine now, euria can figure it out herself that this relationship is over"

miguel took a step back, looked eli in the eye, balled up his fist and swung. punching eli right in the nose/ eye area. "don't speak about her that way dude! you think you're some hot shot again? well you're not. so fuck off and don't be surprised when she hits you the next time she sees you" and with that miguel took off back to eurias house. so much for not punching. plus he lied to her and told her he was going shopping but he just wanted to get a point across to eli.

his hand hurt but he was trying not to show it, he didn't want her to find out. but she found out anyway.

"miguel, what happened to your hand?" she asked him, staring down at it and raising an eyebrow to look back up at him.

"don't worry about it euria, i'm fine okay?" he says, gently to her.

"no. you're gonna tell me what happened."

miguel sighed and sat down on the couch, he looked up at her as she followed him to stand in front of him. "i lied about going to the store"

"where did you go then miguel?"

he sighed again and looked down at his feet. "i went to eli's"

"why would you go there?" she snapped a bit at him. she was frustrated, she didn't want drama again but here we go.

"you were upset, you've been sad this whole week because of him. you can't tell me you haven't been. i'm not dumb euria, i can see it. you miss him, it hurt me to see you upset so i went over there to talk to him. but he said some pretty fucked up shit and said you guys were done. so i punched him, i punched him hard. i know you hate fighting especially after what happened with tory. but i just wanted to protect you in some way" he looks up at her and put his non hurt hand on his forehead and sighed. "i'm sorry"

euria bent down a bit to reach his level and tried to smile a bit but couldn't do much because of the wire. "i'm not mad at you miggy. i get it. you've been trying to protect me a lot. ever since i met you, you've tried to be this protective person besides when we fought but, the thing is, i'm not mad. i can never be mad at someone who loves to protect others. you and sam are my only people i have besides my mom now. i could never get mad at the either of you. but can we please go clean it up?"

miguel smiled at her and nodded his head, following behind her to the bathroom, euria put the toilet seat down and let miguel sit in front of her on it. she grabbed the first aid kit, she looked at him while he kept looking at his hand. she sighed quietly so he couldn't hear her. she opened the kit and grabbed the cleaning supplies. once she got it, she walked in front of him and sat on the floor. pulling out the stuff she needed she dabbed it onto his hand as he winced. "i'm sorry, i know it stings" she says to him.

"it's fine, it isn't your fault" he says back. he looks down at her, he watches her clean his wound, he smiles a bit. he always thought she was beautiful. but today? it was different. it was a different kind of beautiful to him. it was like the earths nature became one in the house he was in. he took a look at her one more time and then looked back up at the wall.

she finally cleaned him up and got up to get him some bandaids. "i know i don't say it a lot but thank you for staying here and taking care of me even though i didn't need it. it still means a lot"

"you don't have to thank me mi reina, i'm always here for you" miguel spoke back with a smile.

"i still have no idea what you said in spanish, but i will figure it out." she says walking back over to him and sitting down. she opened the bandages and put it over his hand. she looked up at him and stared at him, while he stared at the wall. she smiled to herself, she knew something changed with them tonight. a good change, a change that will make her rethink that love was overrated.
