A/N I want to say sorry for the previous chapter but I'm really not sorry, so I'm not apologising I'm really not ❤️ also TW: mentions of throwing up.

Mia's PoV:

I can't believe I've just told Char about my past and all she wants to do is comfort me, I don't know how I'm going to deal with these feeling, I lost my best friend and my sister, I moved schools to keep myself safe. "What if she leaves me? Everyone else does" I said out loud without realising, I just sit in shock that I've just said my thoughts out loud. "Amelia Robert's... Don't ever think like that, I will never leave you, you're my friend and honestly the other people who've left you don't deserve you." Char tells me with a stern but calm tone. I just look at her with tears in my eyes and bury my head into her neck, god she smells perfect.

We sit at the beach for a little longer and I've finally calmed down and I notice that Char is shivering "Here sweetheart here's my jumper" I say taking it off and putting it over her head, "Mia, I can't take this, you'll be cold too" she tells me I just ignore her and continue to put it over her body and watch as she snuggles herself into smelling the sleeves. She looks so cute wearing my clothes, I bring her into my chest and kiss the top of her head "Thank you Mia" thanking me I look at her confused "why are you thanking me? I should be thanking you, you sat and listened to me and you're still here" I explain as I feel her body getting heavier. I just sit for five minutes watching her drift in and out of sleep, the moonlight hitting her perfect face.

"Char come on, I've called my brother to come pick us up, you can stay in mine if you like it's getting late" I nudge her awake "that would be nice Mia but my mum won't be too happy that I'm staying out" I hear the panic in her voice and tell her I'll talk to her mum, she looks worried and hands me her phone, "Don't worry sweetheart I'm sure she will be fine" I reassure her, I don't know what her mum's like but I can see my sweetheart is terrified she might hurt her... I'll always protect her with my heart.

Texts of Mia to chars mum:

Mia: Hi I'm Charlotte's friend from school I'm Mia I'm just wanting to let you know Char will be at mine for tonight, my brother will be dropping her off in the morning for her uniform and taking us to school.
Char's mum: THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE SHES SUCH A SELFISH BITCH, SHE WILL NEVER LEAVE THE HOUSE AGAIN AFTER TONIGHTS ANTICS, I don't know who you are but just so you know you won't see Char except from school. Goodbye.

"What does she mean I won't see, Char again? Why won't she leave the house?" My mind starts panicking of the thought of what could happen between her mum and Char, "she wouldn't hurt her would she?" I ask myself. I don't want to pry on Char I don't expect an explanation and I know if she wants to talk about it she can to me. "Sweetheart, you know you can talk to me right?" I asked worried "Of course Mia" she answers looking at the ground. I open the car door for her and sit in the back with her so she doesn't feel uncomfortable, I feel her head rest on my shoulder as we get in.

"Alright weirdo, is this your new girlfriend?" Josh starts annoyingly, I give him a death look "No dipshit this is Charlotte, she's my mate who I told you about, so shut up!" Telling him in a tone that makes him just smirk, I lean over and punch his arm, I swear he's just annoying dickhead but I guess most brothers are, he smiles at me through the car mirror and I just smile back feeling content that my sweetheart is safe. I think I'm starting to like her more than a friend and I've not known her long, I don't even know if she's into girls.

Once we arrive at my house I help Char out the car while Josh unlocks the front door "no noise to be made from your bedroom Amelia" he laughs walking in, I just roll my eyes walking away from the car while Char is standing giggling, "what's so funny sweetheart?" I ask her with a smile, her laugh is like music to my ears "oh nothing just that your brother knows you have a crush on me" she acknowledges that I have a crush on her is it that obvious I think before rolling my eyes and walking into the house.

We go up to my bedroom while I get me and Charlotte some pyjamas to wear from the wardrobe I pick out black silk shorts and T-shirt and I pick the same ones for her in pink "aww we're matching!" She excitedly shouts, I look at her and smile wrapping her into a warm embrace, I notice her leaning more in and humming quiet enough, I feel so happy that she feels this content. We stop hugging when a ping from char's phone goes off.

Text from char's mum:

Char's mum: You best get your shit our my house by tomorrow I never want to see you fucking face again, sleeping in another girls house, what a disgrace you are, your not my daughter anymore.

Char picks her phone up and reads the message I watch as she runs to the en-suite to throw up, I run in behind her and hold her hair and rub her back for her "that's it char get it all out, I'm here" I reassure her. Once she's stopped being sick I get her a new toothbrush from the cupboard under my sink and we brush are teeth together. She smiles sweetly at me thanking me, "Char don't thank me, you know your more than welcome to live here, Josh won't mind I'll speak to him in the morning if you like?" "Thank you Mia but I don't want to be a burden" teary eyed she claims "you can never be a burden char your mum doesn't deserve you, I noticed the bruises on your back and arms when you got changed, do you want to talk about it?" I ask her but she just tells me she's not ready yet and I'm more than happy to just cuddle her to sleep.
