The one for me 💗 (Michael Afton x reader)

chapter 13- playtime

Micheal leaves me, I was too stunned to speak. What did he just say?

I shake my head and follow him with a sleepy grin. I was still very tired from last night. I see Micheal sitting on the couch while his siblings played in front of him. He rested his head on his hand and his eyes were narrowed at his siblings.

I suddenly yawn. I was so exhausted. I barely got any sleep.

I make my way to Micheal and sit with him. He turns his attention to me.

"Heya Princess, what do you wanna do?"

I shrug in response. Today seemed like a day to rest and do nothing. Clara walks to living room.

"Y/n..is it alright if you can look after the kids for a bit? I just need to run some errands. I'll be quick" She asks me, I see her green eyes darting at the kids and back at me. She looked very desperate, and of course after everything she had done for me..

"Of course! And please, take your time" I nod to her

She smiles and mouths a thank you. Opening the door, a fresh breeze enters the home, making  my hair even worse than before. I sigh and she walks out the door. I touch my hair. 

"Ugh..my hair is literally hopeless! A simple breeze makes it go all crazy!" I complained and hid my face with my hands. 

I heard a small laugh. I take my hands off my tired face and I see Micheal's blue eyes.

"Hang on tight"

I raise my eyebrows and he leaves me there. I didn't even interject, he's been doing that often. I immediately remember what happened in the Kitchen. The way he..well..almost cried. He looked so hurt, so stressed over a dream?..well I can't say anything. I cried when I had dreamed of him dying. I groan and rest my head on the couch. He looked so deeply into my eyes, promising he would never leave me. 

I feel a slight tint on my cheeks. Could I be falling for him? I mean..he did save my life?..This was all very confusing. Every time I remembered Micheal, something was holding me back from..truly..knowing how I feel about him.

I heard footsteps and I see Micheal carrying a hairbrush and his top secret hair product. He rushes over and sits down with me.

"..Micheal you're gonna do my hair?"

He smiles and laughs.

"Princess, you've complemented my hair before, so..I know what I'm doing"

I chuckle. I found people playing with my hair very therapeutic. I inhale and send him a sneaky smirk.

"If you know what you're doing then fine, just make sure you don't suffer because of my horrendous hair." 

He rolls his eyes playfully and turns me around. He begins with brushing my hair. Surprisingly he didn't go very aggressive. It barely hurt. 

"Hey Micheal..shouldn't we be at school? It's Tuesday" I question, suddenly remembering.

"Ah, Father said we could stay home today. He knew we would be tired" Micheal continues brushing my hair. It felt so nice, being so close to him. My eyes lazily opened. I didn't notice that he started humming. He kept brushing, and he hummed. 

"Micheal don't you dare make me fall asleep"

He laughs.

"Why not Princess? You do look tired, and that's from you crying over me" He snickered.

I scoffed.

"Oh yea? Well you nearly started crying in the pantry" I fought back

He chuckles.

"Well you actually cried"

I roll my eyes.

"Well maybe because you mean so much to me!"

...

My eyes widen. I turn to look at Micheals face. His mouth gaped wide open. 

"Princess..could you repeat that?" He sends a sly smile while his eyes sent a playful squint.

"No! I won't."

He put the hairbrush down and got very close to my face, Inches away actually. He looked so deeply into my e/c eyes. 

"Please do Princess"

I tensed up. He was so close to me..only inches apart from our lips touching.

I scoffed.

"Not a chance" I replied. 

Somehow I was calm over the panic which raged inside me. My stomach had butterflies, my body increased in heat. He was so close.

"Fine, then I'll stay like this" He got closer with each word.

"Michael no"

He raised his eyebrows. 

"mmm..I'll go if you repeat what you said" His deep voice, which made him sound like he was sick, was playful. I knew he was joking but..I don't know..he was never this touchy-like.

I gave in.

"I cried just because you meant so much to me"

He backs away and smiles over his victory. 

"That wasn't so hard princess?"

I still felt very tense. My face was burning. The butterflies in my stomach only got worse when I remembered his eyes.

"No that was very hard"

He raises his eyebrows and clicks his tongue. I turn back and he continues brushing my hair. What the hell just happened?

I rolled my eyes mentally. How could I let him do that?..I then remembered something. He would get embarrassed himself if I did something like that to him..I wonder.

I inhale and hear quiet. It was..very quiet..too quiet. I turn and I see Elizabeth and Evan looking at us. Their eyes were wide open.

"Uh..Micheal.."

"Yes Princess?" Micheal replied looking at my face. He sees what I'm observing and turns to the direction of his siblings. They look at me and him.

"..."

"MICHEAL AND Y/N LOVE EACH OTHER!!" Exclaims Elizabeth with a jump.

"WHAT!?-" I shout.

"ELIZABETH- NO-" Replies Micheal with a crimson red tint on his face.

"Micheal and Y/n sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G!" Sang Elizabeth. I groaned and hid my face in shame. Micheal looked so embarrassed at his little sister. Evan gets up and walks to me.

"Miss Y/n..congrats on your wedding..!!"

I jerk my head right up.

"Wedding?!"

He nods.

"Yes! You're gonna get married to Michael!"

My face gets red. ME AND MICHEAL .. MARRIED!?

"EVAN!- Micheal and I aren't gonna get married!-" I interjected then I get rudely interrupted.

"Oh, but she wants me to marry her" 

I gasp and look at Micheal.

"Oh don't pretend you don't either!" I replied with a sly look.

....

"When did I say..I didn't?"
