Somebody To Someone

Chapter 8

Mischa's POV

He took care of me. All the time. And yesterday. I don't know why he did. I don't know why he does but I thank him for that. He will never know how thankful I am that he came back. He closed my bedroom door behind him and I took a breath, cupped his face and kissed him. He stopped and I felt like I was going to cry for a second. Until his arms hugged around my waist and he came closer to me. I broke the kiss and buried my face in his neck. I swear I look like a tomato. 

"What does this mean Mish?" He asked softly. 
"I-I haven't thought that far ahead," I admitted quietly. Does this mean that we're together now? Like, boyfriends? What if he doesn't want to be? Oh god I probably just forced him into something that he doesn't want to do. What's wrong with me? I should've asked him first. What if he leaves? 
"Well, I hope that it means that you'd be willing to date me? Let me hold your hand, let me hold you when you're sad," Brendon said and I felt a tear slide down my cheek. I sniffled and wiped it. 
"Awe Mischa, don't cry," He said softly and he rocked side to side with me in his arms. I moved my hands around his body and hugged him back. We stood there and swayed for a while and I was starting to nod off with my head on his shoulder. This boy has kept me together more times than I can count and I just... I don't know. I want him to stay. I want him to stay forever maybe. I know that he won't but it's nice to think that he will. 

"Mischa, we gotta get you into bed honey," He said softly and I smiled at the name. 
"But I'm comfy here," I replied. 
"I know but you'll sleep better in your bed," Brendon replied. 
"Can you stay?" I asked. I know that the answer from his mum is going to be a no but I'd like to not think about that. 
"I don't have clothes to sleep in," He said. 
"You still have pjs here. Unless you don't want to. If that's the case, then I'll see you tomorrow," I said trying to sound happy and I also tried to pull out of the hug and he didn't let go. 
"No, no. No one said that. I can call my mum while you get changed okay?" He said and I nodded. He asked my dad if he could stay and that was a yes. He talked to his mum in the hallway while I changed. I put on pj pants that I got a long time ago. They have llamas on them. I jumped to get on my bed and landed on my bed. I bounced a little. 

"It has been time since I've seen you do that," Brendon said and climbed on the bed with me. 
"It's been time since you've seen me," I commented and he laid on me. 
"I know and I've missed you. I've missed you a lot. You have no idea," He said and hugged me. I hugged him back. 
"I have an idea," I replied. We got settled under the blankets and he held me close to him and I hugged him. 

"I'm not letting you go this time," He said. 
"I don't want you to go," I whispered and fell asleep.
