You'll Be In My Heart

Chapter 27

I love you Miah. Will you marry me?

Miah Welton... I've spent years chasing after you and pushing for your love. Will you marry me?

Miah change your name to mine and be mine.

I smile a little for the first time in forty minutes at the notes I wrote on my phone. Yeah. I'm planning on purposing to Miah. It seems like a stupid ass idea right now with everything happening, but I'be never been good with timing and I've had this ring for months waiting in my back pocket for her finger.

I wasn't gonna ask her when I bought it for her, don't get it twisted. I was walking by a crowd of people trying to avoid the cameras and the screaming- it was a nightmare, but then I saw it in the window.

The camera flashes made it look much more appealing to me. I couldn't stop staring at it till I stepped away from it and into the car. That night I sent a guard to go and take a picture of it for me then that week he bought it for me. For $1,450. Which isn't a lot considering how much I make, but... God I hate spending money, she's worth it.

She is worth it.

I click my phone off, and drop it down to the floor. Miah's bedroom floor. I came in here after sitting outside for about an hour contemplating driving away from this bullshit... now I'm just hoping to isolate myself away for the rest of this day.

Rest of these three days.

The door opens quietly to Miah who looks at me from the doorway softly with a small smile and concerned black eyes, "Hey.".

"Hi." I mumble turning my head and facing the wall. I'm still fucking pissed. Wouldn't anyone! She's off running around with the ex-boyfriend she claims to hate playing whatever fucking game with. I miss her... regular non upset and stressed out her.

The door closes quietly as Miah steps in the room and gently touches my back, "can I sit in here with you.".

"I guess.".

Miah straddles my back, gently placing her butt in the crevice of my back, and starts stroking my upper arms leaving a tingling trail behind as her hands glide over me. I smile a little and close my eyes to just enjoy her for a second before the anger and pain comes back.

"Do you remember when we got drunk in your studio one time and you let me record a ten minute song thing."

"Yeah, I still got that on a CD in my house in Michigan."

"I can't even remember what I was singing about."

"Me."

"Ew... I hate myself.".

I chuckle softly, "that's fine, so do I.".

Miah pokes the back of my neck gently and speaks nervously and almost as if she's unsure about it, "you don't hate me.".

"No I hate me."

"... you should hate me, I'm a horrible person."

"... let me turn on my back baby.".

Miah leans up from my back, let's me turn, and then places her butt on that weird place right on my naval. I stare up at her gripping her hands and holding them in mine sweetly, "I love you- I'm sorry I called you a bitch.".

She smiles a little then let's it drop back down into a frown and let's her eyes avoid my own, "I deserved it.".

"No you didn't baby."

"... I didn't sleep with Calvin, I'm not interested in him, I don't care about him, I'm sorry I hurt you. I would never do anything that would cause us to lose each other... again."
