*Daniela's POV*
I looked at the clock on Mikey's bedside table. It was 3:00 am. Once I calmed down from my dream I tried falling back asleep, but I just couldn't do it. I calmed down about the dream but that doesn't mean I forgot about it. I thought about the worse possible possibilities. 'What If this actually happens?' 'What if my dad got hurt tonight' 'I'm such a terrible daughter for letting him go like that'' My mind was driving me insane! "M-Mikey. I can't go to sleep... I'm scared I'm gonna have the same nightmare." I said with my voice cracking. He knew I was going to cry again. "Please don't cry darling. I'm here. And I'm not gonna leave you." He said. That made me feel a bit better but I knew I still couldn't fall asleep. "Can I sing you a song? Maybe it will help you fall asleep." He said. I said okay with my voice cracking a bit. "What shall I sing?" He asked. "Anything. You're voice always makes me feel better.. You choose a song." I said. I saw him wrinkle is cute little nose and squint his beautiful sapphire colored eyes. He was thinking. He always does this when he's concentrated on something. I saw him slightly smirk and I knew that had thought of a song. He started... And my heart jumped. I immediately know what song he was singing.

Stay for tonight
If you want to
I can show you
What my dreams are made of,
As I'm dreaming of your face
I've been away for a long time
Such a long time
And I miss you there
I can't imagine being anywhere else
I can't imagine being anywhere else but here

How the hell did you ever pick me?
Honestly, I could sing you a song
But I don't think words can express your beauty
It's singing to me
How the hell did we end up like this?
You bring out the beast in me
I fell in love from the moment we kissed
Since then we've been history

They say that love is forever
Your forever is all that I need
Please stay as long as you need
Can't promise that things won't be broken
But I swear that I will never leave
Please stay forever with me

It goes to show, I hope that you know that you are
What my dreams are made of
Can't fall asleep, can't fall asleep
I lay in my bed awake, in my bed awake at night
As I dream of you
I'll fall in love, you'll fall in love
It could mean everything, everything to me
I can't imagine being anywhere else

They say that love is forever
Your forever is all that I need
Please stay as long as you need
Can't promise that things won't be broken
But I swear that I will never leave
Please stay forever with me

The way that we are
Is the reason I stay
As long as you're here with me
I know I'll be OK

They say that love is forever
Your forever is all that I need
Please stay as long as you need
Can't promise that things won't be broken
But I swear that I will never leave
Please stay forever with me

(I couldn't love just anyone, I was created to love just one baby)
They say that love is forever
Your forever is all that I need
(I couldn't love just anyone, I was created to love just one girl)
Please stay as long as you need

(I couldn't love just anyone, I was created to love just one baby)
Can't promise that things won't be broken
But I swear that I will never leave
(I couldn't love just anyone, I was created to love just one girl)
Please stay forever with me.

The song was done now. And I was once again crying. Not because I was scared. Or mad. Or sad. But because I was happy. I was happy that I had a person like Michael in my life. I would be so lost without me. I would've taken my life into a terrible direction if I would've never met him. "Oh my god Daniela, what's wrong kitten? Why are you crying." Michael asked with worry in his voice. "No no no. It's happy tears. I'm so lucky to have a person like you. I would be lost and alone without you Michael, and I can't thank you enough for saving me." I said. He wiped my tears away and he kissed me. "There's no need to thank me. I shouldn't be thanked for loving someone." He said. I saw his cheeks turn into a dark shade of pink when he said that. I could see his face just barley because of the dim like in the room. It was the first time he's told me that he loved me. Of course I love him back. I'm just shocked that he loves me too. "Y- you love me?" I said with shock in my voice. He sighed lightly. "Yes I do. I love you so much. If you don't love me back I understand. I just cant hold it in any longer. I love you Daniela. I'm in love with you. I have been since the moment I first saw you." He said with a sigh of relief at the end. I guess he's been waiting quite a while to tell me. "I'm such an idiot you would never love anybody li-" I cut him off "are you serious Michael? Of course I love you too. I was scared you didn't love me back. And when you said you did I was in shock. That's why I didn't say anything. But I do love you Michael. I love you so much. You've literally managed to take over my heart. It beats for you." I said. After that his lips crashed into mine. I kissed him back and smiled into the kiss. After a while we pulled away to catch some air. I cuddled into him more. He wrapped his arms around me bringing me closer to him. He reached his hand up to my hand and he pulled a strand of my hair being my ear. "You're beautiful" he said, his eyes sparkling in the moonlight. I giggled. "Thanks Mikey. So are you." I said. He chuckled and gave me a small peck on the cheek. "You need to get some sleep, we are going out tomorrow?" He said with a smirk. "Okay. And where are we going?" I asked. "On a date with me . Duh" he said jokingly. "Okay loser. But only because you're cute. Not because I like you or anything." I said jokingly. "Meanie." He said with a chuckle. "I know" I smirked. "Now let's go to sleep." I said. "Okay m'lady" he said. I laughed. "You're such a dork"I said. "Yeah I know. But I'm your dork." He said. "Yeah you are" I smiled at his words. With that we were off to sleep. 'I really do love him' I said to myself.
