Chapter 10. Love Birds

Briar's POV

It's been two weeks since Devon tried to kill me. Much to anyone's surprise, I'm still alive. Barley, but hanging on. Myles is the only one I'm fighting for. Myles has been hospitalised since he had a heart attack when he found out that I was barley alive. The doctors don't know how he had a heart attack since he's young and healthy, he's a dancer for gods sake. Everyone says it's because he loves me so much. But is so much, too much? Am I too much for him?

Myles POV

I'm finally out of the hospital. It feels nice to stretch my legs. I haven't left Briar for a second since that day. We were put in the same hospital room so I could keep an eye on her. It's hard to believe what happened, it feels like a terrible nightmare. Briar is able to go home in a few days but she can't dance for another month, which crushes me. I hate that she can't do the thing she loves all because of Devon. That son of a bitch is in the same hospital as us, much to my dismay. I hate him. The cast has cut all ties with him and Jordan won't stop apologising to me. She thinks it's her fault that Devon came because she told him that Briar was in the hospital. I don't blame her, Briar doesn't blame her, but for some reason Trevor does. He's not mean or anything about it he just seems to shut her out. Brittany has tried talking to him about it but he gets annoyed every time. I guess it's best to leave it.
Yeah.... the cast knows what Devon did to Briar.... every. Single. Thing.
Briar didn't seem angry when I told her that I told the police, she seemed.... relieved?

Briar's POV

I'm going home today!!! Well... not 'home' just back on tour. I can't dance, but you obviously guessed that by the state of me. I have cuts and bruises everywhere. Myles and I seem to be getting closer. Is that even possible? We know everything about each other yet it seems different. But it's good different. Overall, I'm happy, I just need to know for sure that Devon is locked up. From what I heard Myles and Trevor beat him senseless and he's still in hospital. Police have been outside his doors the whole entire time in case he came for us. Yet the only time I felt safe was when Myles was holding my hand.

Briar's POV

I'm standing outside. Fresh air fills my lungs and it feels amazing. Myles takes hold of my hand and kisses my cheek. "I can't wait to be able to cuddle you all the time now" he whispers in my ear. God he's perfect. I let out a small giggle. "Come on love birds" said Shelby. Myles and I looked at each other and grinned. We got onto the bus and it all came back to me, but I didn't let it show. I felt uncomfortable, and I think Myles could tell as he tightened his grip on my hand. I took a shower, changed into comfortable clothes and joined the others in the lounge. I hated being in there, but I hated being alone even more. It's like Myles can actually read my mind. As soon as I sat down he whispered "let's go". He took my hand and we quietly exited, going towards the bunk. "I love you so much M" I said. He stared at me and smiled "I love you even more B".
Happiness.
"You tired?" He asked me playing with my hair.
"A little" I replied. With that he picked me up bridal style and carried me over to his bunk. We laid there for hours just cuddling and arguing over who loves who more. I'm never letting him go.
