I'll Stay Through It All

~Chapter 21~

Mike held two tickets up in the air, waving it around. "Carnival tickets." He squealed jumping up and down. "I love the carnival!" He hugged him. "Well the carnival is opening tomorrow and I thought you might like to go." Mike blushed, scratching the back of my head.
He really knows how to make me feel things I never knew I could feel. "If we go tomorrow then what do we do today?" I set the tickets on the table and sat him on my lap. "M'lady, will you give me the pleasure of letting me take you out on the town?" I asked in the most old time-y way I could.

Michael jumped onto the couch.

"A-Are you asking me out on a-a d-date?" "No, I'm asking to kidnap you." Mike grinned, kissing his cheek. "So, will you accept?" He nodded, moving off his lap. "I accept." They went into the room and dressed in something non-work related. Mike had to lend him something of his.
He started pulling his pants off after he took off his shirt. He had a small body, he looked so young. Mike secretly pulled his phone out and snuck one picture....or more... Jeremy looked at him, so he hid his phone. "What are you doing?" Jeremy asked puzzled glancing at the object sticking out of Mike's jacket, opened, while pulling the pants up. "Why is your phone open and sticking out of your pocket?" Mike blushed, snapping one more pic then closed it. "Nothing." He covered his body with his arms. "A-Are t-taking a p-picture of m-me?" He stayed silent. "Maybe." He ran out the room, Jeremy chased after him. "D-Delete it! Now!"

Mike extended his hand into the air so he wouldn't be able to get the phone. "Delete it!" Jeremy kept demanding. He put the photos in a secret folder on his phone then deleted them, showing him. "There, it's gone, see?" He stuck the phone in his face. "Thank you." Mike laughed to himself for being so clever. "You ready?" Jeremy asked. He raised eyebrow, smiling. "I didn't know you liked going into public shirtless." He pointed at his visible skin. "O-Oh." He blushed going back and getting a shirt, putting it on. "R-Ready." They put Mitchy
(Michaels nickname) into his cage with food and water then headed out.

"Where are we going?" Jeremy asked, buckling his seatbelt. "Somewhere." Mike started the car, driving to 'the place.'

"Close your eyes we're almost there." I nodded closing them. I wonder where he's taking me.
I heard the car stop and doors open, there was silence for about 2 minutes then he helped me out the car and lead me. "Alright open your eyes." I opened them. There was a picnic blanket laying on the silky short grass, lit candles on each corner of the blanket and one in the middle, a picnic basket next to the middle candle, and two wine glasses next to it. "It's..It's beautiful, Mike." It was an amazing sight, there was a big lake with a swan and her little ducklings paddling along the water that glistened in the moonlight and a few trees that would be great for shade in the daylight "Have a seat." Mike said sitting on the blanket pouring wine into the glass cups. I did as he said, still staring at the lake, remembering the one 'he' was staring at, sobbing.

"JereBear, you okay, you've been staring at the lake for a long time." I asked, putting the bottle back in the basket, setting the wine glass next to him. "Y-Yea, I just like the lake." He seems distracted, ever since he looked at the lake. Maybe it's special to him.

Mike took two plates out and 5 containers filled with rice, shrimp, mashed potatoes, fish, and steak. "Sorry the food is crappy, the only thing open that was nearby was this Chinese take-out place." He looked down mentally kicking himself. "It's perfect." Jeremy smiled, kissing Mikes nose. "I'm not much of a fancy person, I can be sloppy." Mike dug around the basket, feeling for a fork, then handed it to him. "Well that's a relief." He chuckled, taking a drink. After they piled their plates with food, they ate like they hadn't eaten in days. "Oh my god, this steak is amazing." Mike continued to stuff his face. "You're such a pig." Jeremy joked, giggling from all the wine he drank. "Are you drunk?" He asked, wiping his mouth with the napkin "M-Maybe, what are you g-gonna do about i-it?" He grabbed the bottle and took a big swig from it. Mike grabbed the bottle before it was empty. "Whoa there Jere, easy on the wine." Jeremy laughed, swaying. Mike put everything away in the basket when they finished, not noticing Jeremy swiped the bottle, finishing it off. "Y-Y'know*hic*you-you*hic* gotz a p-pretty face*hic*Mike." He giggled crawling closer to him staring into his eyes. Mike blushed, smelling the alcohol on his breath. 'Damnit Jeremy.' He thought, feeling his lips being pressed against his. Jeremy fell on top of him, keeping his lips on Mike's.

I wrapped my arms around Jeremy, pulling him close. I swear if he wasn't drunk, he wouldn't be doing all this...maybe I should get him drunk more often. He moved off of me, scutching closer to cuddle me. "I love you, Mike." He swooned, staring into the star-filled sky. "I love you, too JereBear." I replied, kissing his cheek. The moon smiled at us as the stars danced across the cloud-free sky. Sleeping under the stars is going to be our new tradition because it is fun.

"Mike?" Jeremy asked thinking about the future. "Hm?" "Can you promise me something?" The alcohol's affect slowly loosened on him. "What is it?" He tightly gripped onto Mike's body more. Please, never leave me." Mike smiled *booping* his nose. "I promise to stay with you forever, even after the end of time and in the afterlife." Jeremy smiled, his eyes feeling heavy. "I love you, forever and always." His eyes closed, going into sleep mode. "Forever and always." Mike said, yawning, getting some shuteye as well.
