Mike's POV

I woke up and Stella was still asleep, she was away from me and she kept flinching. I was confused, I pulled her to me and she soon calmed down. I kissed her head and she woke up slightly.

"Mike..." She mumled half asleep. 

"I'm here" I said to her.

"Good" She said rolling over to face me, her eyes were shut again and she was sleeping peaceful again. 

I smiled to myself and let her sleep, I got up out of the bunk and pulled the covers around her and she cuddled into them. I walked out into the living space and Vic looked up at me. 

"Hey bro." He said and I sat next to him. 

"Hey, What's going on?" I asked him and he looked at the table. 

"You love stella? I heard you guys last night..." He said

I sighed and messed with his hair. "Big brother, I do love her, why do you ask that?" I asked him. He pulled my hand away and looked at me. 

"Mike, are you sure you aren't rushing things? This chick is off the street." Vic said to me. This disgusted me, Why would my brother say this to me? espically my big brother.

"Vic....She isn't some girl off the street!" I raised my voice a little.

"Mike....seriously? You just broke up with your last girlfriend and your with another girl?" Vic questioned me. He got up and walked back to his bunk. I sat there in silence and realized he was right. I had just left Maddie and She was my entire world....what happened to me? What am I doing?  

Stella's POV

I woke up and Mike was gone but I was covered up in his blanket, it had his scent and I loved this. I got up and walked to the living space, I saw mike and sat next to him, he got up and walked opposite of me and sat on the other bench. 

"Mike...Did I do something?" I asked him 

"Stella, Why in the hell do I love you?!" He shouted at me. I was shocked. 

"Mike...I don't know." I muttered with tears in my eyes. 

He there in silence and looked up at me, I had tears streaming down my face. He blinked and he looked up at me. 

He jumped up and hugged me. "Stella, I am so sorry!" He said

I pushed him away "how could you...wh-why do you act like I...." He stopped me and kissed me hard. 

"Stella...Please, stop it" He said pulling back. "Vic said something and it got me thinking and I was just in my head" He said to me. I looked up at him 

"What did Victor Say?!" I raised my voice alittle. 

"Don't worry about it" Mike said to me and hugged me. "I love you because you are so sweet, and you keep me happy unlike everyone else" He said

I looked up at him and he wiped my tears away. I was so happy that he could make me feel better in just a matter of seconds. I knew I wasn't good enough for this man that saved my life multiple times but he thought I was so I'll go along. He put in The nightmare before Christmas and sat down next to me, he pulled me closed to him and I snuggled into him.

I loved this moment, I loved being so close to him, I loved everything right now. But something told me things would get bad, and I knew it. I knew good things would never last, and I was fearing the worst.
