Nothing Will Tear Us Apart.

cookout and more

*Mia's POV*

Colby pulled into the parking lot at home and he parked the car.
"Stay there." He instructed as he got out of the car.
"What?" I asked confused.
"I wanted to be nice amd open the door for you." Colby looked at me with the goofy grin of his as he opened my door.
"Why thank you kind sir." I blushed and hugged him.
"HANDS WHERE I CAN SEE THEM MISTER BROCK!" Elton came outside and yelled.
"Elton it was just a hug." I looked at him.
"Be careful Colby." Elton said as they started carrying things inside.
I helped them carry things inside and walked up to my room and changed into my bathing suit:

I threw on a pair of shorts and a tanktop and walked downstairs. I looked outside and saw elton cooking on the grill and the rest of the boys in the pool.
"Mia! As an initiation into the house you must jump off of the platform!" Elton yelled.

(If you watch the boy's videos, im talking about the tall thing they always jump into the pool from.)

"Bro no way!" I gasped.
"Ooooooh Mia is a scaredy cat. Mia is a scaredy cat." Corey sang.
"No. I am not!" I said proudly, taking off my shorts and tanktop.
I felt Colby staring at me as i was walking to the ladder to get on the platform. I winked at him as i climbed up the ladder and his face turned bright red. I giggled at him blushing.
"MAKE WAY FOR THE QUEEN," I yell as i jump into the pool, "Woo that was fun!" I smiled as i resurfaced.
"Girl you did a double flip! I thought only Elton could do that." Colby exclaimed.
"I am his little sister!" I giggled.
"You seem so happy today Mia." Colby smiled at me.
"I am. I get to live with my brother and his best friends, while one of them happens to be the most attractive boy in the world. But we don't name drop here now do we?" I kissed Colby's cheek and sat down at the table in the back.

*Elton's POV*
I walked over to Mia and sat down with her while there was still food cooking.
"So mia, do you like Colby?" I asked.
"Hey, I just met him literally today. He is by far the most gorgeous guy I have ever seen. I wanna get to know him more first." She looked at me.
"Okay little sis. If anything happens, I want to be the first to know. I trust him with you." I walked back to the grill.
I saw Colby and Mia swimming and flirting with each other.
I'm so happy they get along. They deserve each other. They're both amazing people who have been hurt too many times. Hell Mia had to move due to her ex boyfriend. Fuck him. I hate him. He hurt her so badly and if i ever see him He will be in the hospital for awhile. No doubt about that. I trust Colby with her. He won't hurt her. I hope they date.

* Mia's POV*
Elton trusts Colby? With me?? His little sister??? That's crazy. Colby must be a super good guy. Wow. Elton trusts him. He never trusted my ex. My ex was a horrible person. He is why I had to move.
I started thinking too much and I ran inside to my room. I changed my clothes quickly knowing it was only seconds till one of the boys comes after me since I ran quickly inside. I changed into a black v neck and a pair of jean shorts. I laid down on my bed and started bawling like a baby. All of the memories were coming back and I couldn't stop crying. I hate this..
I got up to go into the bathroom. I wanted to self harm.. I can't deal with these thoughts in my head. As soon as I opened the bathroom door I felt someone close it and pull me into their arms.
"Hey Mia, You're gonna be okay. He cannot hurt you. That's why you're here. So he can't. I will end the motherfucker's life if he does. Don't hurt yourself sis. I love you. So much. And I'm so sorry you have to deal with those memories. You deserve to be happy. I love you with all of my heart Mia." Elton said as he hugged me.
"I love you so much Elton.. Thank you.." I cried.
"Oh Elton i wanted to te... Mia are you alright??" I heard Colby's voice as he noticed Elton holding me.
"No she's not. She was thinking about some stuff that's happened to her and she started crying. Is the food done?" Elton asked.
"Yeah that's what I came up here to tell you."
"Okay, Mia do you wanna come down right now?" Elton asked as he let go of me.
"No.. I'm gonna go to my room. I'll eat later." I walked to my room.
"Hey, can I come in?" I heard Colby ask behind me.
"Yeah sure." I laid down in bed.
"Do you wanna talk about it?" He asked, sitting next to me.
"Just.. My ex was crazy.. I don't wanna talk about it too much. I just want cuddles and affection." I looked at Colby with puppy dog eyes.
"Do you wanna go somewhere with me? I have this cool spot. I've never taken anyone there but I want to take you.." Colby scratched the back of his neck nervously.
"Of course! Let me get changed okay?" I smiled.
"Okay baby girl. Meet me out by my car." He smiled and left the room.
I got changed into:

I put my hair up into a ponytail and walked downstairs.
"Where ya goooooing?" Corey asked.
"Somewhere with Mr Brock." I smiled.
Corey ran outside, "MR BROCK YOU BETTER TAKE CARE OF HER AND HAVE HER HOME AT A DECENT HOUR!!" He yelled in his dad voice.
"Okay Aunt Corey. I'll make sure she's home at a decent hour." Colby laughed.
"Good. Now have fun children." Corey patted both of us on the head and walked inside.
"Hey nice shirt." Colby smiled at me.
"Oh wow thanks." I giggled as we both got in the car. 
I took a Snapchat of him driving and said 'adventure time with this boy'. We jammed out to music and had a good time. I kept looking over at him and smiling.
God dammit. I can't be falling for him already. I just met him, what, two days ago?? He just makes me feel secure. I trust him. And the fact that Elton trusts him with me is huge. That is insanely amazing. I'm so afraid of letting my walls that i have built up fall down. But he is slowly tearing them down. It's a good kind of scary.
"Hey babe we are here." Colby pulled me out of my thoughts.
"Where are we?" I asked.
"My special place. I come here to think and get away from everything." He said as we got out of the car.
He grabbed my hand and we walked for maybe 10 minutes to this cute little space by the ocean. He had a blanket and laid it out. We both laid down and i laid my head on his chest.
"Colby this is so amazing. It's so relaxing. I love it." I sat up and smiled at him.
"I'm glad you like it." He sat up as well.
I took a deep breath in, "Do you want to know why i was so upset earlier?"
"Of course hun. I'm listening." He replied.
"So i dated this guy named James for about a year. Things were amazing for the first two months. He treated me like a damn princess. Then after two months he completely changed. He started being insanely controlling. He used to check my phone and he would stalk me whenever I wasn't with him. He used to hit me a lot. He forced me into having sex with him. I was so scared to leave him because I didn't know what he was gonna do. Elton was the only person there for me. One day I finally had the courage to leave him. After that he stalked me at my mom's house. I could barely leave the house without being scared that he would hurt me. That's why I moved in with you guys. Elton didn't want me to live in fear anymore. He knew that he could protect me and that you boys would have my back too. That was the worst year of my life.." I started crying.
"Baby girl I am so sorry you had to go through that," Colby pulled me into his arms, "You deserve so much better. I will do everything in my power to keep you safe. I won't let him hurt you ever again. I swear. As long as you're with me he won't touch you. If he ever comes near you I will end his existence. I want to keep you safe." He kissed my forehead.
"Thank you Colby. You're the first person besides Elton that I've told everything to. It feels good to get it off my chest. Thank you for being here for me while I'm bawling my eyes out." I giggled as I stopped crying.
"No problem. You are still the most beautiful girl in the world you know." He smiled at me as he used his thumb to wipe the tears off of my face.
"Thank you so much." I blushed a deep red.
I took my shoes off and rolled my pant legs up so i could walk down and put my feet in the water. I stood there and stared at the sunset, taking in the beauty and happiness of this moment. I felt arms wrap around my waist and I smiled. This moment was perfect. I was truly happy for the first time in years.
"Thank you Colby. You're amazing. We should make it a thing to come here at least once every week or two weeks. It's our own little vacation spot." I turned around and wrapped my arms around his neck, his arms still on my waist.
"Of course Mia. Anything for you." He kissed my forehead.
"You missed."
"I missed?" He had the most confused look on his face.
I stood on my tiptoes and kissed his lips, "Yeah, you missed."
We kissed again and then laid bcak down and chilled for awhile till the sun went down and it got really cold. We went back home and said our goodnights. I laid down in bed feeling truly happy.for the first time in forever.
