Chapter Twenty

-Michael's point of view-

I stood in the park. I wore nothing but a robe, and I held nothing but my newly bought handcuffs. I waited patiently by myself, avoiding the people walking by and giving me funny looks, and watching a jogger go in and out of the trees.

I watched as Luke approached me. He looked the same as I last saw him; handsome. Just this time not naked.

The boy didn't say hello to me. "What is it?" I held up the handcuffs and smiled slightly, only for Luke to frown a little more. "Oh my god, no."

"Wait, it's not what you think!"

"Then what the hell are you doing? And why are you wearing a robe?"

Giving up on trying to explain, I silently pulled off one side of the robe I wore (making sure that it still covered my lower region) and attatched one side of the handcuff to my robeless arm. Then, I attatched the other side to the small tree beside me. "I'm getting a taste of my own medicine."

Luke laughed. "You're an idiot!"

I fiddled with the handcuff in order to make it a little more comfortable, then faced an amused Luke. "Just let me talk!" I fiddled a little more until I was finally somewhat comfortable. "Look, I made a really shit move after we . . . Yeah. And I regret it. Also, I realise that just an apology is not enough, so I took the initiative to punish myself. So, sorry!" I held the key with my free hand and raised it into the air gracelessly.

Luke continued to laugh. He closed his eyes, and I noticed a little tear fall. My action made him cry with laughter. That was not what I wanted to come from this. "I thought you were a jerk, now I know that you're a stupid one."

I mentally cursed Calum for this idea. "What?"

"I'm going to go. You tried, Michael." Luke turned to leave, but before he could take one step, the jogger from earlier approached me. I still held the key to the handcuffs in my hand, but within a moment of the jogger coming up to me, he had taken it and it was held in his own hand.

"Idiot." The jogger laughed, then ran away still holding the key. He left me stuck to the tree. I screamed, then shouted profanities at the guy. I tried running after him, but to my dismay, of course the handcuff held me back. Now I really was in Luke's position. Except this time in public and in broad daylight.

Luke watched the entire scene unravel, and he stood infront of me looking rather shocked. He snickered a bit, and then walked a little closer to me. "Oh no, now you really are suffering what I suffered!" He cooed slightly.

"Chase after him!" I said, my voice still raised and full of anger. "Get the fucking key back!"

"Why?" Luke said, peering behind himself. The jogger was still visible in the distance, looking nonchalant despite what he just did. "You didn't help me." Luke had a snide grin on his face.

I had no comeback. I just slumped against the small tree, fearing for what was to come next. It wouldn't have been so bad if I was not naked. I looked up at Luke; just looking at his face reminded me of the events only days before. He took my virginity, and now it looked like he was planning on leaving me stuck naked in a public park.

Luke laughed a little more and glanced down at my robe. "Are you naked underneath that?"

"Yes."

Luke laughed even harder. "Okay, well, I really am going to leave now. Good luck, Michael." The blonde looked around the area I stood in for a moment, turned back to me one last time, then made his exit. After a couple of steps, he turned a corner. I was alone.
