5. he's back

Michael POV.

I wake up at 2 am because I hear people screaming downstairs. I softly walk downstairs, I see my mother and... HE is here the man who never wanted me, the man who is suppose to be my dad.

"You don't deserve him, you never were there for him and now in the middle of the night you're here, after all those years to fight with me! You couldn't handle it you said!"

"Yes but I regret it, he's my son too!"

"You left us. You weren't there when Michael thought he wasn't good enough for you, when he hurt himself! You just went to another woman because you couldn't fcking handle it!" My mother cut him of.

I can't do this anymore.
What does he want?
Why is he here?

I open the door and run away, I feel the cold air on my skin. I keep thinking those thoughts but then I have my old thoughts again.

Did I do something wrong?
He doesn't want me anyway.

I can't breathe. It feels like I'm slowly dying.
Luke! I need Luke. I quickly grab my phone which is in my pocket and I call him and he picks up.
"Mikey are you okay?" I hear Luke's sleepy voice ask.

"C...can you come to the playground?" I ask out of breath with panic in my voice.

"Yeah be right there." Luke says and sounds concerned.

I did it again, I make everyone sad and I ruin everything. Without me Luke would be happy. I can't do this, sometimes I'm really happy but 15 minutes later I'm sad.
I sit down on the ground and wrap my arms around my head.
A couple minutes later I feel arms around me and I hear a voice,

"I'm here for you, I always will be. It's going to be okay Mikey. "

It's Luke. He wraps a blanket around us and we cuddle for a while, in a playground at 3 am.

"We should go back home, you can come with me if you want? I'll text your mom. Okay?" Luke says, I just nod.

We walk back and he wraps his arm around my waist. Then I realize that his parents are back from their trip.

"Luke aren't you're parents home?"

"Yes but it doesn't matter, they wouldn't mind. You have to rest first and if you don't want to talk about it you don't have to okay." Luke says and I just nod again.

When we arrive to his house we carefully walk upstairs, to not wake anyone. We get in bed and he wraps his arms around me, we just cuddle, he makes me feel safe, and I forget my father for a while.

Luke POV.

I wish Michael would be happy, I wish at least the bullying would stop.
He deserves to be happy.
I love him, I've never felt this way about anyone before, and he just deserves so much more...

I knew that I was gay since I was 12, I fell in love with my best friend, Calum, I thought that something was wrong with me so I cried every night. One night my mom came in to check on me and she saw me crying, she asked me what was wrong, and I told her the truth. At first she laughed and I got mad, Why was she laughing when I was having problems? But then she talked with me and said that it was just normal, she'd love me as much as before and there was nothing wrong with me. That was the thing I needed to hear. So the next day I walked to school with Calum as usually, I was so nervous, Calum asked me If something was wrong. So being me I told the truth. Calum wanted to say something but then stopped when he saw my face, I was almost crying, he told me that it was okay but he didn't feel the same way, and then he hugged me and told me that everything was going to be alright. My feelings went away a couple months later so I guess it was not meant to be, but Calum always stayed my friend and I'm thankful for that.
