Easy Life And The Hard Life

Chapter 25 Chris POV

I almost shit myself knowing this news. I thought of all the possible senerios that could happen. I nearly shrieked to my self.

" Boy you look like you saw death its self!" Mrs . Doe. I looked to her.

"I actually may have ." I said getting up running to Mikes. I knocked on the door and here stood Mike with potatoes chips and a coke.

He never eats this ...

"Are you good?" I said quickly. He nodded.

"How do I know that?" he held up the food and sat back on the couch. I saw his dad sitting at the table I took a deep breath and walked over.

"umm hello sir.."

"hey Chris you doing okay?" I nodded . I was nervous.

"Yes , is .. Liam really going to be living with you?" I rushed out. He nodded and smiled.

" he will be off the streets. And he will finally be in school."

"Won't he have to go to freshmen although he should be jounior?" I said making small talk. I wantesnto know certain things.

"How is mike taking it?"

"Not good. he is far to aggressive but he won't hurt him."

I groaned.

"Only if he takes the meds..." I said his father nodded

"So ... when does he come here?" I asked . His father gave me a paper and it read he would be moving in as soon as he woke up... well ....shit. ... I wanted to take him out ... like I was gonna buy him a lax stick.... There goes that weekend or really when he was going to wake up...

I sighed.

"wanna hang out outside?" Mike said. I looked behind me and grinned. Fake the whole time..

I followed him and turners to face away.

"Mike please don't hurt him." I said with my eyes closed. he huffed.

"What?"

I sighed , I can't believe I'm actually telling my best friend to please not hurt Liam. Why? I may never know ... but that would be lying. I like liam ... a lot .... I don't know where and when these feelings came up ... but they just so happened to... and I'll be damned that liam never finds out. Mike , when he doesn't know what he is doing is scary !ran and cruel. I will be the first to say that...its sad but I'll say it . He sat down in the grass playing with it.

"Why... what does he have that I don't ... why can't he just go away ... " he said . I looked down to him lightly playing with the grass. "Why can't I just have my best friend back , the one that doesn't ignore me to hang out with some kid he met walking into on the street.... I don't understand ... every one says I'm messed ... but I only ever wanted my best friend ... I didn't want you to slip past me ... or my fingers and yet you have , always talking about liam... always wondering about him.. smiling about him ... So much that mike isn't even a simple thought.." I saw him slightly tearing at the grass. I stood watching ... I didn't think this through. He was parshly right..

"Mike , I'm sorry... I just ... he - just.. I -"

"Stop.. I hate stuttering ..." he said. I scoffed.

"you don't get it ... you changed me into a view ,a view I hated .hated with a passion ." he said gripping the grass. he looked up at me with cold stone eyes.

"I won't make a promise .. but I'll try not to hurt him." He said . " If that will make you my best friend again." He said.

" what's up with you , why are you so keen on staying my best friend?" I asked. I was angry why does he think that acting like he is , that I'll fucking stay!

"Because your the only one who gave me a chance .." I froze .. I should be quiet , I know I'll end up saying something I regret.

a chance .. this boy needed a miracle.. he had no friends. he was introverted and meeting me was probably saved him from commuting suicide multiple times. All those random outbursts and just because I pushed tat aside he thinks that ... I wouldn't be his friend.. Just because I made maybe more than a best friend , he thinks I'm going to leave .. I couldn't leave even if I wanted to. as much ad I wanna choke him, kill him, tell him that I hate him .. make him die in a hole I will still love him, he is my best friend.

"Mike , I'm not leaving you.. he may be my friend .. but he won't replace you ." I said . I looked to mike who sat quietly picking at the grass. I sighed and sat next to him. draping an arm over his shoulder.

" Why are you so protective ...?" I asked.

"I'm not." he muttered.

"Mike , I call bull shit ." he grinned.

"Cause , I had you first .. I can't see you leave .. or push me to the corner." he said.

" I wouldn't , as much as I wanna kill you some times .. we will always be friends. Unless we become physco then I'm never ever talking to you ." I said with laughter. He chuckled and rubbed his arms.

"please just don't push me away.."

"Don't kill Liam."

he looked at me like I killed his x-Box 4 ...

" fine." he said.

" Or hurt him while I'm not here?"

"yeah yeah ." he said gripping his arms.

"Why are you doing that?" I felt his body slightly shaking. .

"Your really close." he said turning to face me. I just realized how close we were. I saw him look down then all of a sudden lips caught mine and I was to shocked to know what was happening. then the lips moved and explored my mouth and I didn't stop it. It honestly felt so good. I was on my back and Mike was over me. his hands on either side of my head. looming over me . I was confused and so was he . I could see it unless that something else.

"What does Liam have that I don't? He was a bum on the street. He has no body .. I do. I make you laugh .. I know what you love ,like and hate .." He said I looked his eyes and something was off. " I was always there. I always help you score the goal.. I always give you advice. I-i have everything ... he has nothing..." he said gripping the grass. I saw his veins pop from gripping the grass.

"I don't get it , you like him and I -...i-... " I narrowed my eyes.

"you what?." I said I heard the grass rip in his grasp. .then he sat back and gripped his hair and rocked back.

"Stop stop stop!" he said then he stood up and gave me a sorry look and pushed me out of his drive way onto the street. I ran to his retreating body in his house.

"Hey!" I snapped . he whipped the door closed .

I listened through the door.

"Hey where is-"

I heard glass crash and yells.

"Just make it all stop! go away !" Mike said. I sighed against the door.

what the hell just happened...

I groaned walked back to my own home ....

wait.....

what the actual fuck just happened...

oh my lord ...
