GT pov

I know Myles' phone is in his pocket, and I also know he wants to talk. I follow him out of the kitchen to the lounge.
" Do you think they're lying?" He asks. I shake my head. "Sure?" I nod. "How?"
"They aren't, they would come separate...to those other ones." He nods. "So should we help?" He asks stepping closer. I nod.
"Yes, I need to find her" is all I say. I go turn away, but he grabs my arm. "What?!" I ask trying to pull away. "Stop" he orders. I do. "Now, are you OK?" He ask turning me around. " I don't know." I admit. "Come er" he says pulling me into a hug.
"Thank you." I'm glad he knows me well. I pull away and lead us back into the kitchen.
"Are you two OK? We saw you hug" says Honey. I nod. "I'm fine, I just miss her. I thought I had her back, but nope...she left again." I try choke down my tears. One manages to roll down my check. "But anyway, Myles"
"Oh yes. So when Chris came here to see um...GT...she started talking to me and recorded it so I could show you two, when you came. And I think she had a plan to discover something about the people who took her. She said you would get what she said to me, that's why she recorded it. She also put a tracker in her belt that she was wearing, and did something on my phone so I could see where she was." His eyes find mine and he looks concerned and worried. "You OK?" Honey asks.
"Yeah, why?" I ask. They all look worried. Why?
"Um, how about we go watch some TV, let them talk, OK?" She asks walking over to me pulling me to the lounge. I disagree.
We both sit on the couch next to each other. She picks up the remote and turns on the TV.
"What do you like to watch?" She asks flicking through the channels.
"I don't know. I only got here yesterday." "Oh. Really? Uh."
Wait I got here yesterday! And I've made life changing decisions. A baby? What was I thinking? Staying here? Myles? He's my best friend, he's like a brother. You can't get married to your brother, can't have a child to your brother! What was I thinking?! Do I really love him? Yeah, OK, I've had trouble saying it but I do. Does he really love me? He said yes to have a child with me, our was he just saying it to please me? No, no he wouldn't, would he? We promised not to lie to eachother. We need to wait, get married before I have children. Make a commitment to each other. I need Chris. She can help with this. We need to find her, as soon as possible too.
"Are you OK?" Honey asks. "Yes, why?" "You look like you're...um... " she pauses. "Myles" she yells. He runs over to us. I now realise why she yelled for him ; I'm gripping onto the couch, breathing heavy, shaking, and I have a scared look on my face.
"Hey, look at me, Luna? Look at me." I do. I hear Honey question my real name. "Calm down." "I can't" I say. "Get up" he orders.
I slowly stand up with his help. "Here breathe with me." He breaths in, I do too. Out. In. Out. In . Out. I'm finally calming down.
"Good. What's wrong?" He asks trying to get eye contact but my eyes dart across the room at random things. All I do is hugs him and hide my tears from Honey and Wasabi.
" How about you two stay here tonight? And we'll see Kate tomorrow, yeah?" Say Myles to wasabi and Honey.
"Yeah. Any room?" Asks wasabi. "Yeah there's plenty." "Cool." "Make yourselves at home. Me and GT are just gonna go and talk, OK? Help yourselves to food as well." He pulls me away and up the stairs to our room. He pushes me away from him and sits me on the bed and crouches in front of me placing his hands on my knees.
"Are you OK? What was that?" He asks as if he's disappointed in me.
"I don't want to go too fast." He nods. "OK, that's fine. I was thinking about that too. But if it did work...we got nine months, OK?" He says comforting me. "Yep, nine months., yay" I say so sarcastically Myles scowls at me. "What?! Its not like I'd be a good mother. Not many people like me, and yes I do know why. I'm surprised you like me." "You are?" He says raising his eyebrows high as if telling me to shut the fuck up before I slap you. I know he wouldn't hit me, but that's what what I think when he does that face.
"You're going to be a great mother." "That does not help." He sighs. "Fine, what will?" "Chris." "Ummm...how about you get some rest?" "What?! No. Just because you didn't want that answer -" "you're right, I didn't want that answer but -" "then what answer do you want?" We are so angry we're yelling. He opens his mouth but doesn't say anything. He sighs at me.
"Its late and you're angry, and I don't like it when you're angry but now that we are ,us, I can't just walk away I have to deal with it so...I don't want to fight, so I'm gonna say sorry because when you think one thing and everyone tells you another they are wrong, so I'm sorry and I'm going to make our guests dinner...if you want you can join, I will come up and tell you when its ready, OK? Thank you." He says getting up already walking to the door. Some of what he said upsets me because it true and I need to fix some of those things about me. But I still want him here with me.
"Wait." I yell after him.
"Yes?" He sighs stopping at the door. "I love you. And I should be the one who's sorry, and I am. But please...just stay here" I say not trying to stop the tears from running down my face.
"I love you too baby." He walks back over to me and sits next to me rapping an arm around me pulling me closer to him.
"Thank you" I whisper. "I...you're welcome." I don't care what he was going to say, I'm just glad he's here.
