Their Mate

Chapter Fifteen.

Micah woke up the next morning with a soft smile playing on his lips as his mind went back to the previous day. This was really happening.

The fact that the Cullens where vampires, still baffled him. Just the other day, if you told him that the supernatural was actually real, he probably would have asked if you was ok.

But now? He would say you where crazy, so that he could help protect the secret. Now that he knew, he knew he wasn't allowed to tell anyone. And he wouldn't, no matter how much he wanted Angela to know.

He just hoped that she has a supernatural Mate out there so he doesn't have to lie to her for long. But that's all he can do. Hope.

Pulling the quilt off of his warm body, he got out of bed with a hop in his step and walked towards his wardrobe, pulling out his outfit for the day.

It consisted of black jeans, a white top and grey jumper, a checkered scarf and a grey winter trench coat with a pair of brown leather gloves and brown boots.

Once he was changed, Micah walked into the bathroom and brushed his teeth and hair. Once that was done, he grabbed his bag and bounced his way down the stairs.

Walking into the kitchen, Micah saw his dad sitting at the table reading the news paper, a cup of coffee discarded on the table and a plate of half eaten toast.

"Morning." Micah said cheerfully. Walking over to the cupboard, he grabbed a bowl and proceeded to make himself some cereal.

Charlie lowered the paper so just his eyes where shown, "You seem very happy this morning." Charlie mused with a slight quirk of the lips.

Micah nodded, swallowing the spoon full he had just placed in his mouth, "I am." He smiled.

Charlie folded the paper and placed it on the table, "Any particular reason?" He asked.

Micah downed the last of the milk in his bowl, "yes actually." He said softly. Clearing his throat he turned towards his dad, "I-I have a boyfriend."

Charlie smiled widely, "And do I know this gentleman?"

Micah nodded, "It's Edward Cullen, Dr. Cullens son." Just before they had dropped him off at home with the promise of seeing him tomorrow, they had decided that at school, Edward would be Micah's boyfriend since said golden haired boy had spent more time with Micah, much to there annoyance.

Charlie's phone beeped and the elder man couldn't help but groan, "I have to get to work." He pointed between himself and his son, "this is not over. We will continue this later, and when you see him, tell Eddie I would like a word."

"Dad." Micah groaned.

Charlie shook his head stubbornly, "Nope, I need to put the fear of Charlie Swan into that boy so he knows what will happen if he ever breaks your heart." He smiled cheekily, kissed Micah's head, and left the house.

With a small smile playing on his lips, Micah grabbed his empty bowl and placed it in the sink as well as Charlie's cup and plate.

Grabbing his bag, Micah left his house just as Edward's silver Volvo pulled up. Edward got out of the car, and the second Micah was close enough, he pulled said boy into his arms and inhaled deeply.

"Good morning, my love." Edward murmured as he kissed Micah's cheek.

"Morning." Micah mumbled back, his cheeks glowing a vibrant red as he blushed. Pulling back, Edward flashed to the passenger side and held the door open for him.

"Thank you." He said softly. Edward winked, letting out a soft chuckle as Micah's cheeks got even brighter, as he flashed into his seat and started the car.

With one hand on the Wheel and the other gripping Micah's hand, Edward pulled out onto the road and began driving towards the School.

Micah bit his lip as they got closer to the school. Could he do this? Was he ready for the whole school to find out he's gay? He was nervous that's for sure. Yes Angela and his dad had accepted him, but would everyone else? Or would they be like his sister and begin pointing and sneering words at him.

Edward looked over at his usually quiet Mate and saw the soft frown on his delicate features. Squeezing his hand softly, he gained the attention of his Mate.

"Are you ok?" Edward asked.

Micah nodded hesitantly, "I'm just a little nervous." He mumbled quietly.

Edward smiled reassuringly. He knew everything was going to be fine, he didn't even need to watch the vision Alice had to know that. He had listened to everyone's thoughts and a lot of the people that knew Micah, had the inkling that he was gay and never thought bad of him about it.

"Everything is going to be fine." He said confidently, his thump rubbing softly over Micah's knuckles.

Micah took a deep breath and nodded, "No, I-I know." He pointed towards his head, "Overthinker." He muttered.

Edward smiled softly, bringing Micah's hand towards his lips and placing a soft kiss on his knuckles as he pulled into the parking lot.

Edward turned towards Micah, "Are you ready?"

Micah swallowed thickly, as he took a deep breath. He turned towards Edward, "Let's do this."

Edward smiled and turned off the car. Getting out, he rushed over to Micah's side and opened the door for him.

"Thank you." Said Micah. Again, Edward winked and once Micah was out, he shut the door not bothering to lock the car. Why should he? It's not like anyone is going to steel it.

With his arm wrapped around Micah's shoulder, the pair walked towards the School, with Micah trying to ignore everyone's staring.

"Everyone is watching." He groaned softly in annoyance. While in the car, he thought everyone's stare would make him panic but now it was just annoying him.

Edward chuckled, "Not everyone." Micah looked up at him, unimpressed. Edward smirked at his Mate and quick as a whip, placed a soft peck on his cheek. "Oh, wait, now everyone's staring."

"I hate you." Micah mumbled. Edward smiled cheekily, "No you don't."
