You Were Right

He Cares

Y/N's P.O.V

I heard Mitch mumble "I love you Y/N." I decided to respond and say the same to him. My hand on his chest feeling his steady heartbeat. Do I want to stay with Mitch? Yes. Will I? No once again if Caleb finds out, you know what I'm talking about since I already explained. I drift of into dreamland enjoying the comfort that Mitch is giving me. I want to be with him forever. 

Mitch's P.O.V

I'm startled by footsteps enter the ally way. I look up to see a muscular looking man. About my age but way bigger. He speaks up and says "Awe, looks like my little Y/N has a friend. Now what is your name?" He asks. I gulp looking down at Y/N who is groggily getting up. She peers up at the person and her eyes fill with fear. She has a death grip on my shirt. 

"M-Mitch. Yours?" I say while starting to stand up.

"Mitch eh? I'm Caleb. Y/N's boyfriend." He states. My heart shatters but I can tell something is fishy. I look over to Y/N who is now holding my right hand and peering over my right shoulder. She rapidly shakes her head. Shes scared of HIM.

"No. No your not. Y/N doesn't want you here. Leave." I say firmly hoping he will cooperate. I know he won't but it's worth a shot.

"Awe looks like pretty boy here had figured out I was lying. Well, since you seem to be standing in between my and my ex, it looks like I will be having more fun then I expected." Caleb cackles. It's that point Y/N steps in front of me. I wrap my arms around her waist so she wouldn't get any closer to him.

"Leave him be Caleb. He has nothing to do with us." She says.

"Oh but honey, he is getting in the way of our relationship." He fires back.

"We don't have an relationship." Y/N states. Caleb starts approaching, not stopping. I throw Y/N behind me. I will risk my life to save this girl, no matter what. She deserves to have a better chance at life. Caleb is a step away from me. He grabs me. He is stronger then I thought. I try to fight back but of course, he flips me so I'm facing Y/N and puts knife to my throat. He has an arm across my chest making sure I can't get away. I will do anything for Y/N at this point.

"No! Let him go. Take me. Take me..." She trials of as she gathers her balance she starts to walk towards us.

"Don't! Y/N, don't please." I choke out. The knife gets closer to me throat. I don't dare say another word.

"Shut up pretty boy. If you agree to come with me Y/N I will let your little boyfriend here go and never bother him again. Deal?" Caleb offers. It's this very moment I remember Y/N blade in my jeans pocket from earlier. I slip my hand in my pocket and grab it  and clench it in my hand. I ready it to stab his thigh.

"Dea-" Is all Y/N gets out before a I jab the blade into Caleb making him let go of me and collapsing to the ground holding the spot the blade had sunken into. The cut fairly deep, deep enough for him to lose enough blood to pass out. I ran over and embraced Y/N in a hug. I squeezed her tightly and she started to cry.

"Shhh. Y/N I'm here, please settle down I don't like to see you cry." I mumble to her. She starts to stop. 

"Mitch, I thought- I thought I was going to lose y-" I cut her off.

"You didn't. Trust me, I won't let you get taken from me either." I say and force a smile.

"Mitch, thank you. Thank you for helping me." She says and smiles up at me.

"Why don't we call the police and you can explain everything?" I say.

"Sounds like a great idea." She says with tears in her eyes.

An hour later- Still Mitch's P.O.V

We explain what happened to the police. The police then interviewed Y/N asking all the questions they needed to know about Caleb. They declare that Caleb will get put in jail for 35 years. Though when Y/N was interviewed she insist I wasn't around. Of course I complied because I don't want to push anything out of her. She comes back after the police took Caleb away with a smile on her face. She wraps her arms around my neck and I wrap my arms around her waist. She then asks "Would you mind if I stayed at your house for a bit?"

"It would be my pleasure Y/N." I say as a smile tugs at my face.

"Thanks, Mitch." She says. She let's go but before she walks of to grab her bag she plants a friendly kiss on my cheek. I blush, a lot. She smirks as she sees my reaction and grabs her backpack. 

"Well let's be going my lady." I joke.

"Okay then kind sir." she jokes back. I grab her hand and walk her back to my house. I have butterflies the whole way there. Her hand is so soft and gentle in mine. This is what I have been missing all my life.

Y/N's P.O.V

We walk hand in hand back to his house. I have butterflies because of the feeling of his warm and comforting hand in mine. I'm still scared because of my father. I'm still confused about my entire life and what's happening. I'm still upset that I might lose Mitch. He put his life on the line for me. I can't let him do that and that's why I was about to say deal because at that point as long as I could save Mitch would I be able to forgive myself.

We arrived back to Mitch's house. It was about 3:00 P.M and Mitch said Scott wasn't home. That was fine be me. Mitch let go of my hand to unlock the door. He opened and held the door for me. I walked in gazing at what was Mitch's house. My new life. I felt Mitch's arms snake around my waist, I just giggled.

[A/N] Yay double update! Sorry it's short.
