kitten ♡ [muke]

5 - now or never

Over the next couple of days, Mikey began acting strange. He didn't act as much like a kitten, and when he went outside to play he left his ears inside.

Luke was torn over what was happening, but he didn't know what to do. Mikey just wasn't as happy anymore, and he hated that. There was nothing more painful than watching someone you loved being unhappy.

Luke was also struggling with his growing feelings for Michael. Mikey was adorable, with his pink fluffy hair and all; he was Luke's kitten. And he always would be.

But how did he have a relationship with Mikey if he didn't even know what one was? It would be like dating a child, not that it mattered to Luke. He loved Michael, he knew it right away. But would Mikey ever feel the same? Could he?

Luke's P.O.V
(I've never done this lolz plz be patient ily♡)

I sighed as I ran my hands through my hair. Michael, Michael, Michael. That's all that went through my head. My kitten. I wanted a real relationship with Michael, but he just wouldn't understand. He couldn't understand. And it was breaking my heart.

(Still Lukey's P.O.V)

I woke up at 9:00 am on Saturday morning and got ready to go over to Michael's. This was my routine almost every weekend; wake up, get dressed, spend the day/night with Mikey. And that was just fine.

I walked over to his house and saw a note on the door. Just let yourself in, Luke. Michael's sleeping:) -Karen

I shrugged and pushed the door open quietly, and went up to Mikey's room. He was laying in his bed, curled up in his blankets. An open journal lay beside him. Curiosity got the better of me. I couldn't help it, so I picked it up...

Dear Diarry,

Lukey. He makes my tummy feel tingly, like butterflys. I can't stop smilling when Im around my Lukey. Lukey makes me happy. I think I care about Lukey the way Mommys and Daddys care about each other. I doesnt now, Im confuzed. Lukey reminds me of Ashton, sorry - Ashy. I miss Ashy, alot.

I carefully read over Mikey's writing. I smiled at the spelling and cute things he said about me. But who was Ashton? I had to know.

Mikey began to stir and I quickly closed the diary and placed it back beside him. He yawned and stretched out, with his eyes still closed and his nose scrunched up. Cutie.

"Goodmorning Mikey," I smiled, and he jumped up slightly.

"Lukey! You scared me!", he giggled, wrapping me in a hug.

"I'm sorry darling," I chuckled, booping his nose.

He giggled again, and tilted his head a little, just looking at me smiling.

I had a crazy idea. It was completely insane. But I'd been dying to do it. Dying to know. And reading Mikey's journal gave me the courage I needed..

It's now or never, I thought.

"Hey Mikey," I began, my voice shaking slightly.

"Yes Lukey?", he smiled, still sitting in the same position.

"Could I try something?", I asked him, playing with my fingers.

He perked up and nodded excitedly.

I looked at him and broke out in a smile, before leaning in and kissing him lightly on the lips, he jumped a little, and then to my surprise, kissed me back.

I pulled back, not wanting to move too fast, and observed the expression on his face.

His face was bright pink, pink enough to match his hair. His mouth was open in awe, with his fingers touching his lips. Suddenly he busted out in giggles, smiling widely.

"Llllukey," he giggled at me, "what was that for?"

"I uhm," I began nervously, "I like you Mikey, alot."

"Like Mommies and Daddies like each other?", Michael furrowed his brow in confusion. I nodded to confirm it.

His features softened and his eyes lit up, "I like you too, Lukey."

My heart was exploding.

(Still Lukey's P.O.V♡)
Later that day we were curled up on the couch cuddling. Mikey was nuzzled into my chest, just thinking I supposed. His kitten ears tickled my nose and finally, my curiosity got the best of me.

"Mikey, who's Ashton?", I asked him quietly.

I felt my kitten's whole body go rigid. I pulled back and looked down at him as he looked up at me.

"So you saw it?", he asked me quietly.

I nodded, and he finally breathed again.

"Well Ashy used to be my best friend, before they took him away."
