Awake [Discontinued.]

Chapter 18

The next day arrived, and Donnie decided he was done tinkering at the panel since it isn't budging.
Mikey and He, walked through the halls, talking about things and joking.

"Yeah, my mom grounded me just for playing out in my pajamas."

Both mutants laughed, but Donnie was off.

This time.

This time he was really going to tell him.

"What's about you?" Mikey asked, and looked up at him. Donnie broke out of his trance, and looked down at his boyfriend. "Huh? Oh, I never really gotten grounded for anything. Just one of those good kids." Donnie said, and looked up the empty white halls. Mikey scoffed with disbelief. "You can't be all that innocent. C'mon, you can tell me what you done stupid or bad." He nudged his arm gently. Donnie's smile vanished, and his expression turned grim.

He feels like he's sweating bullets.

Mikey seen his sudden change, and felt like he's gone to personal.

"I...woke you up from hibernation."

Donnie spoke softly.

"What?" Mikey didn't quite hear him.

"I woke you up from hibernation." Donnie spoke up, and let go of his boyfriend's hand. Mikey looked up at him in distraught. "I know! I know! It's all my fault!" Donnie's voice was beginning to crack.

"I can't believe you!" Mikey shouted. Donnie looked down. He knew he deserved this. "You..." Mikey begun sobbing, and his breathing begun picking up.

"I'm sorry-"

Mikey slapped him across the face.

"Don't say another goddamn word!"

Donnie rubbed his face, and looked at Mikey who was crying. A huge wave of guilt washed over him. Much worse than last time.

"How...how could you do this?!"

"I tried not to..."

Donnie tried walking up to him, but Mikey stopped him. Stepping away.

"S-stay away from me!" Mikey sobbed, and quickly walked away.

"Mikey..."

He didn't stop for him. He still had his back turned. Donnie sniffled slightly, and wiped his eyes.

Mikey left to the nearest door, and thrown a glass object to the window of space out of anger. Crying and sitting down on the floor.

He didn't want to talk or see Donnie again, but they're stuck on the same ship.

There's no way he'd avoid him.

.......

The next day,

Donnie went to his regular daily's.
And Mikey didn't leave his room.
He stayed there, laying in his bed, and looking up at the blank ceiling. He'd cry.

The love for him had turned into hatred.

Donnie still regrets, and wished he couldn't have done it. He can't.
He felt all alone, and a glimpse of Mikey. He fell in love with his voice, personality, and his looks.

....

Mikey's stuck with his killer.
