When Mike Met Mary, chapter 3
A day later, Mary was let out of hospital, but wouldn't go back to her own house, so she wandered around by herself for a bit, before settling down for the night underneath the slide at the park.
***
*11.00 PM (Mikes p.o.v)*
I paced my room for a bit, tossing up between going over to Mary's or not.
I finally decided I would. On my way over there, I decided to take a short cut through the park. Walking past the playground, I heard something move.
"Hello?"
"Mike?!"
"Mary, is that you?"
"The one and only!"
Then I saw Mary crawl out from underneath the slide.
"Hey you, why are you out here?"
"I.. um.. I don't want to go back." She explained.
"Why not?:
'My mums having...um...my mum...she's having an affair," she said as the tears started rolling.
"Shhh it's okay," I soothed.
"And...m-my dad...he doesn't know."
"Um Mary, can I ask you something?"
"Sure," she said, looking up at me with her big green eyes.
"Um...well...your Dad...does he ever...you know...beat you?" I asked, observing the cuts and bruises all over her arms.
"Um..."
"I promise I won't tell anyone."
I pulled her in for another hug.
"Mike?"
"Yeah?"
"Can I stay at your place for the night?"
***
*NEXT MORNING (still mikes p.o.v.)*
I watched as she lay there sleeping,
"Man, she's so beautiful," I whispered. "God, I think I'm in love."
Then Mary stirred in her sleep, and sat up.
"Morning," I said.
"Ahh you scared me!!" she said.
"Oh, sorry," I laughed.
"No problem. Can I have some brekky?"
"Sure!"
We sat at the table talking about nothing in particular, then I heard a knock at the door.
"I'll be right back," I said.
I opened the door, and to my dismay, saw Aaron.
"Where's Mary?"
"Um...she's not here, I don't know."
"Don't play dumb, tell me where that little slut is!"
"She's not a slut!"
"Pfft and you should know."
"Go away."
*MARY'S P.O.V*
I walked out to see where Mike was, and came out just in time to see Mike slam the door in someones face.
"Who was that?" I asked.
"Um...no one," he replied nervously.
'Okaaaay...anyways, lets go finish breakfast. K?"
"Sure."
After I'd had my shower and was dressed, I walked downstairs and saw Mike sitting on the couch watching The Simpsons.
"Hey Mike?"
"Yeah?" he asked, turning his gaze from the TV to me.
"Can I ask you something?"
"Sure."
"Was that Aaron at the door this morning?"
"Yeah, it was. Hey Mary?"
"Yeah?"
He stood up and walked over to me.
"I think...I think I love you..."
