New Text Message from: Miles

the notification on my screen made me think i had fallen asleep for a second. i rubbed my eyes and pinched my skin before checking back again, and yet it was still there. miles was texting me.

i hesitated to open it but my heart rate only went up at the bland text.

y/n
i need to talk to you.
are you up?

i didn't even want to respond. he made me feel sick right now. but i was curious as to what he could possibly need to tell me at 4 in the morning,

so i responded.

i was kind of shocked at the message, what did he need to explain? maybe i was right. gwen might have been blackmailing him. do i gave and a agreed to meet up with him. but if he for some reason he was being black mailed, he better not think i'm going to forgive him without knowing what she had on him.

i put on a comfortable jacket over my pajamas as i snuck out my window and headed to the school lot. the breeze hitting my face sending a cold sensation over me. it made me almost regret coming out here as i fantasized about laying in my warm bed, covered with pillows and blankets.

as i got closer to the school lot i saw miles pacing back and forth as if he's been rehearsing something. i walked up closer to the boy as he still hadn't noticed my presence.

"miles?" i said, trying to get his attention. he head jerked up and she smiled softly. his smile, the smile i hated, yet loved the most. 

"thank you for coming y/n." he said softly causing me to want to just fall into his arms once again, but i held my ground.

"so what did you want to tell me."

"well first i just want to start off by saying how sorry i am for treating you. i never want to see you hurt especially by something caused by me. trust me if it weren't for gwen none of this would have happened." he said looking into my eyes with sadness in his. the last words caused me to furrow my brows and he noticed after taking a deep sigh before continuing.

"here's the truth y/n," after that no matter who was talking to him or what anyone said, he wouldn't have stopped until he was done speaking.

"y/n, i trust you and i miss you, more then anything in the world. i promise you if it weren't for gwen we wouldn't be in this situation. but here's the truth y/n. gwen found out some stuff about me that nobody could know, and she knew that, apparently the secret i had harmed her dads job and she wanted to get back at me for it."

he said before taking a deep breath and a pause to make sure i was listening. after he saw how interested i was, he continued

"she made me leave all of you. and after finding out that me and you had that argument, she found it as a gateway to break up , specifically our, relationship. i never meant to hurt you. they kidnapped me and they were trying to kill me but they got caught. the reason i even let her blackmail me was to protect you, but i ca-"

"protect me? what the hell did she have on you."

i said causing his eyes to widen as he cursed under his breath and started pacing. after hearing everything that bitch put him through, i couldn't help but feel pity. "miles, just tell me, it's okay." i said. anyone with a brain could tell that he was having a mini panic attack.

"y/n i'm-"
"i'm the-"

he said, but cutting himself off everytime. until he looked into my eyes, his on the brink of tears

"please just- just promise you won't leave me if i tell you." he said looking down at the ground. after everything we've gone through already there couldn't be anything that bad that he could tell me. "i promise." i said in a reassuring tone. he hesitated for a moment before speaking up again.

"i'm the prowler."

his words made my stomach drop. i assumed this wasn't real. "what kind of sick joke is this miles?" i said.

"i wish i was joking y/n." he said, still looking at the ground. i sighed before i went up to the boy and brought him in for a hug. he seemed a bit taken back at first before quickly pulling me in for a tight embrace. god how i missed his touch.

"listen miles, i forgive you. i really do. but i just- i need some time, alright?" i said smiling at the boy, still hugging him.

"that's fine. what ever it takes cariño."

i missed miles so much. and while i'd been so mad at him for the way he treated me. what gwen put him through must have been hell. miles doesn't get hurt that easy. hearing his old nickname almost made my knees buckle instantly, but i kept myself up. i slowly pulled away from him as the sun started to rise.

"i'll see you at school miles." i said smiling as i started walking towards my house again. internally i was kicking punching and destroying everything in happiness. maybe i was a bit scared of the prowler. but miles gave me a sense of protection, the two don't mix that well together. even besides that, i'd finally get miles back. no matter if he was the prowler or not.

i texted diana and our other friends about it. i knew they would have to wake up to it since they for sure wouldn't be up at this time, but i don't know how they'd react. i didn't tell them about the prowler stuff. i wouldn't leak miles like that. i just simply told them it wasn't his fault, and all about how gwen had forced him and hurt him physically to do all this stuff. i hoped they could have the same heart as me and forgive him.

i'm just excited to have miles back. my miles.
