still feel

WHEN Y/N came out of the tub trembling immensely miles was quick to come to her side. "what's wrong" he croaked voice hoarse from all the crying and screaming he had done. his eyes were swollen and red, his hair fell down over his face. a sad attempt to try and hide his misery.

"n-nothing" y/n reassured him, a fake smile plastered on her soft lips. she lay on her bed, trying to gain some comfort from the warm blankets. never closing her eyes, to afraid of what horrors her mind had ready for her.

miles lay beside her, staring at the bright red bruise, frowning. he traced it gently with his finger tips, feeling ashamed. "i'm sorry" he whispered. "no it's o-"

"no, it's not okay. i just, i just lost someone else. quint was like my other dad, i thought, i thought maybe he could fix us all in a way like we could still be a happy family. but he's dead. another one dead. i just let my emotions get the best of me and took it out on you. i could never be more sorry than i am right now. i never wanted to hurt you, i never want to see horrible bruises upon your angelic face. it pains me to see such marks on someone as sweet as you. so i'm sorry. very very sorry." he apologised genuinely, picking at his finger tips.

y/n smiled, wiping each tear that fell from his face gently. he hadn't even realized that he was crying. "it's okay miles, i forgive you" she smiled again, it was times like these that made up for everything horrible miles had done before. these moments were too precious for her to ever think of leaving him, she just loved him too much.

he inched closer to her, gently placing sweet kisses all across the red mark. she sighed with happy bliss at the touch of his sweet lips. when he finished she rested her head on his chest closing her eyes and blocking out the evil thoughts, only thinking of miles steady heartbeat. miles ran his fingers through her hair comfortingly. resting his head atop her's.

"do you want breakfast? i could go make eggs i'm not the best at it but i could try." he offered. "okay" she giggled. he got up from their comfortable position though y/n was quick to grab hold of his arm. "don't leave me" she bit her lip. he smiled.

"never"
