The Stern Man (Michael Afton x Reader)

18. A Night Full of Bliss Pt.1

One Year Later

The loving couple had been together for a year and two months. Both Michael and Y/n have been the happiest they could ever be. Though with so much time passing, Michael had been eager for something more. But he was too embarrassed to say anything to Y/n, as he would assume she would push him away for asking. On the contrary, the young lady too had much more in her mind, but she was shy to tell him anything. One day Mr. and Mrs Afton had announced to the couple that they would be leaving for vacation to celebrate their anniversary.

Normal POV

William held Mrs.Afton's hand as he spoke to Y/n and Michael, "I'm very excited for our vacation! It's our 25th anniversary! Can you believe it?!". The young lady was surprised as she responded to him with a smile, "Oh wow! Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Afton!". Michael smiled as he spoke to his parents, "Unconditional love always lasts many many years dear". Y/n smiled at Michael as she said, "We have been together for a year!". William smiled warmly as he replied to Y/n, "And many more to come! You two are the cutest!". Mrs. Afton nodded in agreement, as the chauffeur came into the estate bowing to the Afton's, saying, "All set sir, your luggage has been packed up". William responded, "Why thank you, honey, it's time to head out". Mrs. Afton nodded as she went to give a hug to Michael, then to Y/n. The young lady could have sworn she heard Mrs Afton whisper something to her, like ,"Take good care Y/n". But as Mrs. Afton pulled away Y/n simply smiled and ignored it. Next, William gave a hug to Michael saying, "You take good care of Y/n son, don't get carried away ok?". Michael laughed a bit as he responded, "Yes father understood". William then gave Y/n a gentle hug with a warm smile, then pulling away waving at the couple. He soon held an arm for Mrs.Afton, as she took it the Afton's walked out of the estate and into their ride. Both Michael and Y/n stood at the doorway, waving goodbye at the Afton's, who soon left the gates of the estate.

Now it was just Michael and Y/n in the estate, he looked at Y/n as she looked up at him with a smile. The couple had closed the door as they began walking through the hallways, enjoying each other's presence. Y/n held onto Michael's arm as he felt nervous, his heartbeat began to beat faster as he inhaled. Trying to build up courage to talk with the young lady, Y/n noticed his body language she asked him, "Michael are you alright? You seem very quiet". Michael looked at Y/n with desperation, as he responded to her, "There's just... I can't seem to word it properly dear, I don't want to make you feel uncomfortable". The young lady crossed her arms in curiosity, the couple had stopped walking as they faced each other. Y/n responded to him, "Dear, you may tell me, I'm sure whatever is on your mind wouldn't make me uncomfortable". Michael looked down as he fiddled with his tie being nervous, he said, "Lately, there's been this feeling, I-i can't fully express dear, since we've been together for so long. Everytime I see you I get butterflies and I completely melt". The young lady nodded as she walked towards Michael slowly, as he kept talking, "I just wish to hold you closer and take care of you in another way, to express my love towards you, I-".

Before Michael could finish, the young lady grabbed a hold of his shirt collar and gave him a passionate kiss. This made him flinch slightly as he didn't expect the sudden kiss from Y/n. The young lady then let go of his collar as she wrapped her arms around his neck, by this point the kiss had turned into a small make out session. As Michael wrapped placed his hands on her waist pulling her in much closer, leaving little to no air between them. The young lady then pulled away from the kiss locking eyes with Michael, who became very flustered and out of breath. She smiled as she caressed his cheek telling him, " There's no need to feel nervous Michael, because I too have felt like this in a while". His eyes had widened as he tried to speak, "Dear, why didn't you tell me?". The young lady responded, "It's because I was shy to tell you sooner Michael, but now that we've opened up to each other, we can show our love in a more lustful form". Michael smiled warmly as he kissed her cheek, responding, "There's no need to be shy my love, you know anything you want, I can gladly give it to you".
