a Beautiful Drummer; byler

_ you will be okay_

 mike stopped for a second he felt the cold air on his lips, and the breeze blew his hair back and as he felt every inch of air around he he began to think.

am i actually happy? no. i was so much happier with will..what am i trying to prove with this? its so stupid!!

and that's when he threw the flannel on the ground and tears began to fill his eyes, but then he heard a soft and caring voice from behind one he's missed so much. "hey Michael? are you okay?" William asked as he ran up to the boy standing there with his foot on top of a yellow flannel and his hands stuck to his face. mike lifted his head and looked over to the worried face all pale with a red nose and ears.

he wiped his eyes up and sniffled in the snot from his nose, "hey will!" he said with a smile on his face, trying to be as charming as possible with watering eyes. "are you okay?did you get hurt?" will asked willing to help with any physical cause of the crying boy.

"im sorry will!! im so sorry, please just take me back please!" he yelped in emotional pain and got on his knees tugging at wills pant, it was honestly pathetic, how did he expect will to take him back after all that hes done?

will  looked at the begging boy and  laughed a little before getting a bit upset, "c'mon now mike don't be so pathetic and get up from the ground!"  will demanded, he was upset because of all the things mikes put him through, but still he felt sympathy for the slightly shorter boy.

mike wiped his wet tears away, and stood up in front of will tilting his head away just a bit out of embarrassment. "what you did wasn't right mike.." will said, mike nodded and started to walk off.

"but!! but..ill give you a second chance.." mike should've been happy with this response  but he wasnt instead he looked at will and asked "don't you have a boyfriend?"..will and adria never actually dated.

"no..that was a lie..we uhm were not dating!" will said and took a few steps closer to mike, mike turned around a took a deep sigh as he folded his arms, he could feel the goosebumps on his arms that had formed from the freezing weather.

"mike lets talk about this later your going to get sick out here without a jacket!!" will exclaimed, and walked up to mike he took off his jacket and set it along mikes shoulders mike nodded and walked along the street. it stayed that way for a good hour and a half before will stopped, "hey, its okay..i forgive you!" will said lightly as the smokey fog released from his breathe into the cold air.

"is this how its going to be now?.."  mike asked grumpily in witch will was completely confused, "am i always the bad guy?" mike asked, "well i'm sorry for whatever i did?" will said, very confused. 

"the sketchbook..why did you have that flower and troy in there..?" mike asked. "seriously? your mad i kept a pretty flower and i drew my middle school bully because i need to make the best of things when you live my life?!"

at this pint will was re-deciding whether or not he should give mike a second chance, mike looked to the grounde and watched his converse move as he scooted his feet around, "fuck me!" mike yelped, "i ruined everything because i thought you liked someone else-"

will sighed and wrapped his arm around mike, "lets use this second chance as a way to restart everything, okay?" will asked and mike nodded yes, and they walked the rest the way to school together.

earlier in the day will was in art class and they were requested to draw  the deepest emotion they've ever felt,  their art teacher was definitely a hippy. but an assignment is an assignment, majority of the girls in that class just drew a heart with some doves (those basic bitches). will wishes his deepest emotion was love..but in truth it wasn't his biggest emotion was simply fear.
