Michael seemed to be in the bathroom for awhile so I went and knocked on the door to check on him. the door wasn't locked so I opened it only to find Michael on the floor in a ball crying. I sat down beside him and wrapped my arms around his waist. he looked up at me with bloodshot eyes "I knew I made a mistake" he said sobbing.

"Michael what are you talking about? everything was going fine."

"dammit Teigh no it wasn't"

"I don't get it you seemed perfectly fine when you saw Ashton again."

"Teighlor you don't get it do you? I'm falling for you and I know that Ashton is much better looking, older, taller, smarter and just overall better then me. I knew if I brought you here Ashton would be all over you. I know it seems selfish I just want you to want me, even though I'm a piece of shit compared to him."

it absolutely killed me hearing Michael say these things about himself. I don't understand why he's worried about me and Ashton, plus I just met him! yeah I'll give it to him Ashton's a good looking guy but he's not my type. I knew deep down I was falling for Michael. "Michael?" I asked.

"Teighlor."

"I don't know why your worried about me liking Ashton. you are so much better then him and it's killing me that you think these things about yourself. and Michael if you don't want to stay here we can find a hotel. to be honest Ashton seems kinda sketchy and I'm not one hundred percent comfortable staying here."

"Teigh you should've told me you weren't comfortable, I'm sorry for even making you stay this long! we can get out of here soon, let me just explain to Ashton why we're leaving." Michael jumped up and began to turn the door knob.

"and Mikey, I think I'm really falling for you."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"I'm sorry that Ashton didn't take that the right way" I said with a sigh.

"don't worry about it, I guess he's just showing his true self."

"any idea where we're going?" I asked.

"I really have no clue" he laughed. Michaels laughter is the most beautiful thing, the way his noes crinkles and his eyes scrunch is just so adorable.

"hey why don't we go crash that party?" I asked grinning.

"sure sounds like fun!"

we parked around the corner and got out of the car. "we're not exactly dressed for the occasion" I giggled.

"oh we'll be fine."

we walked into the house and instantly had the party vibe. there are people spilling drinks and grinding all over each other. Michael grabbed my hand and made sure I was okay.

"wanna beer?"

"hell yeah why not!"

well one beer lead to two and two lead to many more. Michael still had our hands intertwined and he seemed pretty sober because he only had one drink. "I'm going to the washroom" I slurred.

"okay I'll wait right here" said Michael calmly.

I really had no clue where the washroom even was. there were people dancing in another room upstairs so I though what the hell and went and joined them.

Michaels P.O.V

I was starting to worry about Teighlor. I didn't know where she was. I checked all the bathrooms and they were all opened. I saw a smaller room with a bunch of people dancing and I saw exactly what I didn't want to. some guy was grinding all over her and the worst part was she didn't even seem to care. what I saw next shocked me most. he grabbed her hand and started walking to an open room. I couldn't take this anymore. I ran out the door to my car. I drove a couple blocks until I pulled over and started to cry. all I knew more then anything is I fucked it up. what guy in the right mind would let the girl he's secretly in love with go anywhere alone in a place like that. I love her. I love everything about Teighlor. I love her smile, I love her little giggles and her genuine laugh. I love the way she sings along to the radio when we're driving, I love the way her blonde hair glistens in the moonlight and the way her blue eyes shine. this girls got me whipped and she doesn't even know it. that's when I got a call from a pay phone.

"Michael I'm at the drugstore can you please pick me up."

I looked at the time 2:00 am. "hang tight princess I'm on my way."

"thank you" she said her voice weak.

I drove faster then I ever have before. I needed to get to her. she sounded upset on the phone so I need to find her fast. I turned a corner and there was the drugstore. I saw Teighlor sitting against the wall with her head in her knees. I jumped out of my car and ran over to her. "Teigh?" I question seeing if she was awake or not.

"Mike?"

"yes it's me princess"I said while picking her up bridal style. I laid her down in the back seat not saying another word. I saw a hotel while I was driving around so I went back to it. luckily they had an open room. I went back to the car and picked up Teighlor. I carried her to our room and laid her down on the bed. I shut the door of the room on the way to get our bags. I opened the door to the room once again to see Teighlor passed out on the bed, her mascara running down her face, her hair a mess and her light pink lipstick ruined. I didn't know if I should wake her up or not so I went with my gut and did. I wanted to be mad at her but as soon as her beautiful blue eyes flickered opened my heart melted.

"Michael I'm sorry" her words quiet but still loud enough to be heard. I carried her into the bathroom and washed her makeup off. she brushed her hair out and I suggested she showered, more for my sake because she smelt strongly of alcohol. she eventually agreed. I was playing on my phone until Teighlor came out of the bathroom in her pajamas. there was only one bed and I was going to let her have it.

Teighlors P.O.V

"Michael can you sleep with me?"

"of course baby girl."

"Mikey?"

"yes beautiful?"

"I love you." and with that she feel asleep, head on Michaels chest and his arms wrapped around her, not letting her go.
