Restricted (Michael Clifford)

'Well...We was being pretty rough last night'

Zoe's POV

"Just go to sleep please!" I cried since Lily won't sleep.

I can't face Michael after what I did. I feel so ashamed. Even though his texts did say that he didn't care and he wasn't hurt I knew he was.

"Lily just go to sleep!" I yelled. She wasn't resting. I couldn't do it "Fuck sake!" I yelled crying.

"Hey hey!" I felt someone hold onto me.

I thought it was my mum but it wasn't...It was Michael.

He picked her up slowly making sure he didn't startle her too much then began to rub her little cheeks with his thumb.

"You need to go for your nap little miss" He whispered to her

"She sleeps alone.

My heart wants to come home

I wish I was, I wish I was beside you.

She lies awake.

I'm trying to find the words to say...."   He sung softly to her then she instantly fell asleep to the sound of his voice.

I stood up and began to put Lily's things away. It was 3pm but it was time for her nap.

"Zoe...Please look at me" I heard him say.

"I can't" I bit onto my lip. I couldn't face him. I just couldn't.

"You can...Please" I could hear him walking closer.

"Stop" I blubbered.

"Look after me" He said then tilted my head up with his finger under my chin "I'm not mad" He sighed.

"Why? You should be mad...You should hate me...You should be so mad" I kept saying.

"I'm not" He sighed "Believe me i'm not" He whispered then rubbed his lips over mine.

"I don't understand why though" I stuttered.

"Maybe I just love you so damn much I just don't care" He whispered again then kissed me properly this time "Anyway...Your mum said she's going to look after Lily tonight so we can have so time to ourselves" He said.

"And by this I guess you don't mean watching a film and eating chocolate?" I raised my eyebrow.

"Well...I have something to ask you" He said nervously.

"Oh right..." I dragged out and picked my bag up.

We finally got back to the flat and just as I was about to walk into the kitchen he stopped me.

"Just wait here one second..." He said then walked in.

It was a few minutes later he came behind then covered my eyes as he led me into the kitchen.

When he finally uncovered my eyes the kitchen was in darkness with small lit candles on the table and a nice dinner on two plates with some nice drinks to go with it.

"You made this?" I said looking at him.

"Well...My middle name is Gordan" He said as we both sat down.

"That proves nothing" I laughed.

"But yes I did make all of this" He laughed slightly.

I began to eat what he had cooked and surprisingly it was very nice.

 "That was really nice...I'm surprised" I laughed a little and he faked being hurt but then laughed.

"But there is something I need to ask you" He took a deep breath.
