To Mend A Broken Heart

Chapter 5: Still In Love With You

"Oh my God…" were the only words able to escape my mouth before giving Todd a hug.

"Hey, babe. I missed you so much." he said, beginning to choke up.

"Oh my God…" I said, already crying.

"Let me see your face." he said, pulling me back, me seeing his eyes for the first time in a week, "Miles…" he then started wiping the tears off of my face and then wiped away his own. "Here these are for you." he said, handing me the flowers.

"Thanks…" I said, taking them from him, still crying and now shaking.

After I laid them down on the table I sat on the couch and Todd came and sat next to me, "You'll be ok, Miles. Stop shaking so I can talk to you. I've been dying to hear your voice."

"Ok…" I spoke, trying to calm down, "Hey…"

"How have you been?"

"Good… ok… miserable."

"Why?"

"I…I couldn't stop crying."

"Oh, don't worry Miles, neither could I."

"I've missed that name."

"Miles?"

"Yes…I missed it. I missed you."

"I missed you too." he said, lifting my chin and giving me a light kiss. Boy, did I need that. I began kissing back, putting my hands around his neck, his hands lying on my hips. We kissed for a while, just loving the feeling of each others lips against our own. Once we finally stopped Todd continued, "I love you."

"I love you too."

"I knew you could make it Miles."

"I didn't think I could until yesterday."

"Why yesterday?"

"Because I'm not afraid of Justin anymore."

"Are you serious baby?" he asked, I just nodded. "Miley, it is so good to hear that. So do you understand why I left?"

"Of course I do Todd. You had every right to leave, I was self-centered and I'm sorry for that."

"I'm sorry for leaving. I never wanted to do that, never in a million years and I'm never doing it again. I can't live without you. I'd miss you too much."

"Well, that's good to hear because I'll never let you leave again. Can I see you smile? I've missed your smile."

"Haven't I been smiling this entire time?"

"Yes…but I want to see it again."

"Ok." he said, smiling so big, so genuinely that my heart melted. "Was that good enough?"

"Yes it was." I said, placing my head against his chest, the spot that I had need this whole past week.

"So are you feeling better?"

"So much, just seeing you helps."

"No, I mean are you still sick?"

"How did you know I was sick?"

"I kind of…texted Leslie."

"Todd!" I said, hitting his shoulder, "Cheater!"

"Well, I couldn't do it…"

"Repeat after me…I, Todd Lewis…" I said, raising my right hand.

"I, Todd Lewis…" he followed, lifting his right hand as well.

"Couldn't last a week…"

"Without seeing, talking, or hearing…"

"About his absolutely gorgeous fiancée…"

"Who in fact…"

"Did last a week without her fiancé."

"Which makes her…"

"The winner due to the fact that I cheated."

"Ok, I'm done."

"No, Todd seriously."

"Please stop!" I said, beginning to squeal.

"Please stop!" he repeated, doing his best imitation of me.

"Fine…I'll just stop talking."

After about 30 seconds of giving each other the silent treatment, Todd cracked.

"Miley…" he stated and half questioned, but I didn't answer, "Miley… don't make me tickle you."

I automatically spoke, "What Todd?"

"Eh…too late." he said, beginning to tickle me, me having no escape due to the fact that I was still in his lap.

"STOP! STOP!" he stopped after a few more yelps. "Thank you…"

"Anytime."

"Why must you be so annoying?"

"Because I've missed tickling you and seeing you get annoyed. You know you love me."

"Only this much…" I said, showing him my pointer finger and thumb about 5 cm. apart from each other.

"Only that much?"

"Ok, maybe this much." I said, my finger growing to about two inches apart.

"No more?"

"Ok, maybe this much." I said, now using both hands to show about a foot.

"Ok…" Todd said, feeling defeated.

"I'm just playin'…I love you this much." I said, extending my arms as far apart as possible.

"That's more like it." he said, bending down to kiss my forehead, "You know Miles; I could stay like this forever."

"I could too Todd, I could too."

And that's exactly what we did, well, maybe we didn't stay like that forever, but at least until the next morning. I finally had Todd back in my life and it was the greatest feeling I had ever felt. Life was perfect, I knew I was in the arms of the only man I could, and ever wanted to spend my life with, I had gotten over my fear of the only other man that loved me and I had proved to myself that I was stronger than I ever believed I was.

But life can't be perfect for long, because once everything becomes perfect, something goes wrong. And because I was downstairs snuggling with my sweetheart, I wasn't asleep next to my bed to hear my phone ringing, so I wasn't able to pick up my phone, causing the person on the other line to leave me this message, a message I wouldn't receive until the next morning.

"Hey, Miles. It's me. I get a call once a month and so this month I chose you. I know we haven't talked in 6 months, but I was wondering how you were doing since you and Todd broke up. I really miss you, but it's not like we can ever be together. I'm here, in prison, for life. But because I know that you still can't go a day without thinking about me, I want you to know that you're all I ever want and all I ever need. Seeing you with Todd, left my heart in two and even though I left without saying goodbye, I brought your picture with me and everyday, every time I look at it, my heart sings. I guess this really isn't making any sense, but what I'm actually trying to say is, Miley, I'm still in love with you."
