Mia's POV
Connor pulled up Netflix, "whatcha wanna watch" I shrugged. "I wanna watch Texas chainsaw massacre"
"Alright, do you have a balcony?" he pointed to the sliding door. "Alright well I'm going to read looking for Alaska" he pouted "but I wanted to watch a movie and cuddle." I laughed "really Connor?"
"Really!"
"Alright but I'm not watching Texas chainsaw massacre"
"Alright whatcha wanna watch"
"I don't care"
"Devil?"
"Whatever" he grabbed my hand, and led me to the bed. "Wait Mia, do you need clothes?"
"Oh yeah I do"
"Alright, well we will go to your house and then come back here."
"Alright, what should I bring"
"I don't know, at least seven outfits"
"K" he grabbed his key card in one hand and my hand in the other. We walked out to my car and I started the car. My sleeping at last cd came on. 99 red balloons.
You and I in a little toy shop
Buy a bag of balloons with the money we got
Set them free at the break of dawn
One by one till they were all gone
I sang, Connor looked at me with wide eyes, "you ok?"
"Y-yeah it's just your voice" I felt my cheeks heat up. "You like this song?"
"Yeah, it was my brothers favorite song"
"What happened?"
"Well, he um, committed suicide" he looked at me, "is that why,?"
"That's some of it"
"What the rest"
"Do you really wanna know" he leaned over and put his ear on my shoulder, you have my ears"
"Well, one my father was abusive, he called my mother, my brother, and I fat, ugly, and worthless. My mother and I believed him, until my brother told me he was lying. He said that I was beautiful and I hade so much kindness and that made my world shift. Then my dad died in jail, arrested for abuse. Then my mother turned to drinking and shot her self in jail, my brother was my guardian even though he wasn't allowed to be, we roamed the streets for a long time. Then when I was 16 my brother cut himself and took a bunch of pills. He died on the bathroom floor. I found him, then I ran away, they couldn't find me I still have he dreams, and I can't do it, so I started cutting hoping to kill myself that way I would be with my brother." By the time I finished I had Connor crying, "I'm so sorry, and know that when your win me, nothing will hurt you"
"Ok" I looked down and started crying when I saw my locket, "what's that"
"It's the locket my brother gave me when wefts do out my mother was gone" he looked worried
"I'm sorry I was so nosy"
"It's fine"
