"all that you are is all that I'll ever need" - Ed Sheeran

Steve's eyelids twitched as he returned to consciousness. For a brief moment, he wondered what had managed to wake him since he usually sleeps like a rock. Then there was an odd sound and the cause of his being awake was revealed. Another sniffle, then a quiet sob and he was fully awake. He rolled over and turned on his bedside lamp.

" y/n, are you okay? What's wrong?" His tone was concerned, no trace of sleep in it. He was answered with more sniffling and whimpering. He gently turned you over by the shoulder to find that you were still asleep. Tears soaked your cheeks, but your eyes were still closed and you didn't seem at all aware that you were crying. You let out a soft cry before whining, "No, no please, don't go." A shuddery breath briefly interrupted, "Don't leave me here alone, Steve, please don't leave me here alone, I beg you."

Unsure of what to do, Steve hesitantly laid back down and carefully pulled you onto his chest, trying to somehow comfort you.

"I'm right here, y/n, I'm not going anywhere." He murmured softly, a soothing hand rubbing your back gently as you continued to cry now just awake, soaking the grey shirt Steve had worn to bed. He was honestly scared to death and extremely confused as to why you were crying, but Steve hadn't a clue about what he should do.

"hey angel, you don't have to tell me what's wrong just know that I'm here for you no matter what, I won't leave you, never" he just said his hand still rubbing and soothing circles in your back, and soon the sobs died down. Your breathing began to slow back to normal and after a while, you finally spoke.

"that's the problem steve" you just said with a blank echo to your voice. "what's the problem," your boyfriend asked confused and a bit worried. You just sad still thinking with a sad expression on your face. "come on darling, you can tell me no matter what" you were still staring but after a moment you spoke a sentence there broke Steves heart in half. "you don't deserve this Steve, you deserve so much better than me". Steve couldn't believe what he just heard, of course, he didn't deserve you, you were so much out of his league, you were the most precious things in his life, Steve new that no-one was truly perfect, but in his eyes, you were the closest thing to perfect. That's why he was one big question mark after what you just said, so the only thing I could think of saying was: "What do you mean, sweetheart?"

"You deserve so much better Steve, you don't deserve to always have to wake up at 2 am in the morning to me screaming and crying over a nightmare. You don't deserve to always have to comfort me and canceling your plans because I have a breakdown and can't stand to be alone. I just can't help but feel like I am destroying your life, and you don't deserve that because you are the sweetest and most thoughtful boyfriend ever and I'm just me, you deserve so much more than I could ever give you" ou glanced back up to find Steve staring at you with sad and a heart-breaking glance in his eyes. It took Steve under a second to think of what he should say because he disagreed with every word that just escaped your lips.

"y/n" he began. "I love you enough to fight for you, compromise for you, and sacrifice myself for you if need be. Enough to miss you incredibly when we're apart, no matter what length of time it is for and regardless of the long-distance. Enough to believe in our relationship, to stand by it through the worst of times, to have faith in our strength as a couple, and to never give up on us. Enough to spend the rest of my life with you, be there for you when you need, or want me, and never ever want to leave you, or to live without you" he took a moment to look at you with a reassuring and heartwarming smile before he continued "I don't know why you can't see that you are so much more than I could ever be. I know you are not perfect and you don't have to be, you just have to be you because that's all I will ever need. You are the source of my joy, the center of my world and the whole of my heart, you are nothing short of my everything. I will stand by you through the worst of times. Will stand by you when you are in a bad mood or too tired to do the things I want. I will stand by you when you are down not just when you are all fun and loving, and I will do it all over again because I am so totally, completely, overwhelmingly, eye-poppingly, life-changingly, spectacularly, passionately, deliciously in love with you" there were some seconds of silence before he with the lowest voice whispered "I love you, today, tomorrow and always ."

You just staid silent with a tear streaming down your face. Steve took his hand up to your face brushing over your skin with his warm hand looking at you like you were the only thing that matter at that moment. You didn't have the words to express the feeling you were feeling so instead you just kissed him, a kiss had never felt better it was like you and Steve were in peace with the world. And at that moment it felt like everything was going to be okay. You and Steve were going to be okay because you guys had love and that was the only thing that matter everything else could come at you. When you finally broke apart Steve rubbed your arm soothingly whispering into your ears "Try to get some rest gorgeous."
You nodded your head. And Steve pressed a light kiss on the top of your head. your just rested your head on his chest, listening to his strong heartbeat and his soft breathing. It was calming you down and lulling you to sleep. That night you sleep better than ever before knowing that nothing and no one was going to take him away from you.
