Three times Mick Rory hid from the cops in my house and each time he left before I got up, but one night he didn't come to hide, and he didn't leave in the morning.

I woke up to the sound of my door slamming. I stood up and grabbed my bat as I slowly walked down the stairs. I peaked through the corner to see a man looking through my fridge.

"Mick Rory! What are you doing in my house at 2 am?" I asked putting the bar away.

"Hiding from the pigs. You don't got anything in your fridge." He said annoyed.

"Yea cause I haven't went shopping. Why come here?" I asked as he leaned against my fridge.

"Your the only one who won't turn me in." He said calmly.

"I don't know, I'm thinking about it." I said as I walked past him and grabbed two beers.

"Thanks Baby." He said as I handed him one.

"I'm not your baby. You can sleep on the couch, but when I get up you better be gone." I said as I passed him.

"Sure." He said as I walked out of the kitchen.

The next morning I woke up and he was gone. I let out a sigh as I saw the beer bottle on my table and a note telling me thanks.

It was two weeks before Mick Rory came back to my house and like the first time he was hiding from the cops.

"Thanks for letting me hide out here." Mick said as I handed him a slice of pizza.

"Not like I have a choice. So what you do this time?" I asked bitting into a piece of pizza.

"Tried to rob a bank. Didn't work out to good." He said as I laughed.

"What's so funny?" He asked annoyed.

"You. Why you steal from banks I'll never know. Go to a jewelry store or pawn shop. It would be so much easier." I said with a laugh.

"Thanks for the heads up."

"Welcome, now you know the drill. Leave before I get up." I said as I stood up and walked up my stairs.

When I woke up Mick was gone and twenty bucks was on my table with a note. I laughed as I read it and then put it in my drawer.

It was nearly a month before Mick returned and when he did he told me about how the Flash was after him.

"So Flash wants you in jail, what you do?" I asked with a smile.

"Kidnapped his friend and tried to kill him with Snart." He said annoyed.

"How is Leonard? Heard he had to freeze his old man." I said sipping my drink.

"He'll live. Thanks again for letting me stay, your a good friend." He said with a smile.

"Friend? I thought I was more than that Micky." I said with a laugh.

"Alright your my side chick." He said with a smile.

"So much better." I said as we both laughed.

"But really I don't know what I would do without you." He said kissing my cheek.

"Your welcome you old flirt. Now you remember-"

"Leave before you get up.  I know baby." He said with a wink.

I laughed as I walked up the stairs and went to bed. The next morning I woke up and let out a sigh as I found his note and read it. The first two times I hadn't wanted him to stay, but for some reason I had hoped he would stay this time.

That one time

It was six months before I saw Mick again. I was asleep in my room when I heard a knock on my door. I stood up and grabbed my robe and wrapped it around me as I went to the door. I open it to see Mick looking down at his hands.

"Mick are you alright?" I asked as I looked up at him.

"What's wrong Mick?" I asked after he didn't say anything.

I gently took his hands in mine and pulled him inside and shut the door. I turned to shut the door and when I looked back at Mick I saw tears streaming down his face.

"Mick.... please talk to me." I whispered as I gently cradled his face.

"He's gone." He whispered.

"Who is? Mick who is gone?" I asked softly.

"Snart..... he saved me." He said softly.

"Mick... I am so sorry." I said as I hugged him.

He hid his face in my shoulder and I rubbed his back as I hugged him. After awhile he pulled away from me and let out a sigh.

"Thanks for listening. Is it alright if I stay here tonight?" He asked softly.

"Yea. Come on, you can sleep beside me." I said dragging him up the stairs.

He laid behind me and I closed my eyes as I fell asleep. I woke up to Mick getting off of the bed.

"Where are you going?" I asked softly.

"I normally leave around this time." He said softly.

"Come back to bed. You don't have to leave." I said sitting up.

He walked back over to the bed and laid down beside me. When I next woke up Mick was asleep beside me. I smiled as I set up and watched him turn and look at me.

"Morning." I whispered as he sent me a small smile.

"Why are you whispering?" He asked sitting up.

"I don't know." I said with a laugh.

I stood up and stretched before turning to look at Mick.

"Thank you." He said with a smile.

"Your welcome and if you want you can stay here as long as you need." I said with a smile.

"Why do you let me stay? I'm rude, I eat a lot, I never clean up after myself, and I'm a thief." He said calmly.

"One you have your good moments, two you always pay for the food, three you talk to me as I clean, and four..... I love the danger, and I love you." I said with a smile.

He looked at me shocked as he stood up. I saw a small smile appear on his face as he walked up to me and leaned down and pressed his lips against mine in a deep and passionate kiss. I smiled into the kiss as I kissed him back and pulled him closer. After awhile we pulled apart and I laid my head on his chest.

"I love you too." He whispered as he pulled me into another kiss.
