"With you, I'm always home."

_________________________________________________

I woke up to alone in Mia's bed, but faint humming sounds and padding of feet were telling me she was downstairs.

I huffed into the unmade sheets, I have never felt this happy.
A little curious about what she was doing downstairs, I padded silently down the round straicase.

She was there, dancing to a rhythmic melody, lost to the world and maybe it's a habit or maybe it's magic but my heart beats faster when I look at her,
Because I swear to God she was perfect, maybe not for you, but perfectly perfect for me.

I don't think I know what song she was dancing to but I had to bite my lip to swallow my laughter when she tried doing salsa with a saucepan. Adorable.

Wanting your love to come into me,
Feeling it slow, over this dream,
Touch me with a kiss,
Feel me on your lips.

And I couldn't stop myself, so I tip toed towards her and when she turned around still dancing in dreamland,

"Wha-"

But my lips swallowed whatever she was going to say, and after few chaste kisses we were dancing,
It was not Salsa, I don't know if it was even a dance form, but it was better than any of the dances.

And soon lyrics changed and she sang along,

"Cause this is where I wanna be,
where it's so sweet and heavenly."

"You look cute."

"No, I'm sexy." She retorted back,

We were looking at a photo album, dusty and torn at the edges, some black and white pictures pasted.

It was a picture of little Mia in pig tails holding up a ball and believe me when I say she's cute shit.

"You're cute in this, I bet you'll be sexy if you put your hairs in pigtails now with short skirt that fail to cover your ass while I punish you."

I sassed back winking while she covered her blushing face with her hands.
Heat coiled in my abdomen when I thought about it.

There's something about her that makes me do things that I wouldn't dream of doing.
She makes me feel alive.

And I couldn't help but kiss her lips,
I couldn't help but pull her into my arms,
I couldn't help but feel happy,
I couldn't help but be happy.

"I want to know everything about you."
I said softly as she placed feather light kisses on my forehead.

"I remember when I blurted about my father in your office that day, I don't open up easily,I still don't know why I did that."
She said looking at the ceiling.

"Maybe you felt safe with me?"
I asked sheepishly.

"Mhm, I'm sure about that one."
She said smiling goofily and I returned it the same way.

"I was 4 when I met Ruby she was our neighbor and she's pretty much like my sister. Her father died in a car crash, it was hard but she's strong.
My father was not always a monster, he used to play with me but then I came out as gay when I was 15,. Mom accepted and was happy that I chose to be myself but my father did not take it we-ll"

She had tears in her eyes and I wish I could just go back in time and save her.

"It's okay if you don't want to."
