"You love me?" I asked stupidly.

It was dead silent so I turned around in his lap to face him. Billy's face was red, like he was blushing and a laugh came out before I could stop it.

"I love you too."

A small smile spread across his features before he leaned forward to give me a kiss. Which I ended up dodging because I was still mad.

He sighed before standing up completely knocking me out of his lap. But before I could protest he grabbed me up and slung me over his shoulder.

"Billy!" I screamed while laughing as he walked down the hallway. He threw me on the bed while caging me in with arms so I couldn't leave.

"Give me a kiss!" He whined while puckering his lips at me.

"Ew." I giggled while pushing his face away. "You have Chloe cooties don't touch me."

Realizing I still wasn't going to kiss him he grabbed my hip and pulled me down so that I was directly under him. His hand traced up my body until he reached my face where he moved my hair out of the way.

"I just wanted a kiss now look at where you are." He told me before placing a trail of kisses down my neck until he hit the top of my shirt. Not liking how it was in the way, he tore it off.

His hand kept reaching lower and lower until his fingers played with the waistband of my jeans. "Not talking all that shit any more are you?"

That night was the first night I wasn't terrified of Neil breaking down the door to get to Billy. We slept easily with the bedroom door open, no deadbolt on the other side of it sitting there threateningly.

Even when I woke up and he wasn't beside me, I wasn't scared for his safety.

When I finally got up I walked to the kitchen expecting to see Billy burning his fingers on breakfast. He was nowhere in sight but a note was visible. Walking up the counter to read it I noticed a small roadside flower beside it. I laughed knowing he must've been so proud of himself as he picked it up.

The note read
"Went to go talk to my old boss about a job. Don't do any damage while I'm gone
Love-
The hottest boy you've ever seen".

I laughed the whole time as I got ready for the day. Slipping on my shoes I made my way back to the kitchen counter to scoop up the house key and 20 dollar bill that had been left. It couldn't be that long of a walk to a supermarket and I had time to kill anyways.

Even just walking down the street here was amazing. The sky was blue and the tall palm trees were unlike anything I've ever seen before. The sidewalks were crowded and children screamed in delight as they played. All too soon I came across a homey looking supermarket. I stepped inside and began picking up essential food items I thought we'd need. Bending down to get a closer look at a label a young child ran into me, almost knocking me over. We both stopped in shock to look at each other before we both laughed.

"Hi buddy." I said staring at him with a smile. He had the most adorable blonde curly ringlets and small button nose. His little pink full lips curved into a smile as he shyly waved at me.
