Chapter 1: Mike Gets Fired

Y/n's POV (Many Years Later):

I woke up and slowly opened my eyes to see Mike cuddled up next to me listening to his little tape of nature sounds. I gave him a peck on his forehead before slowly moving from his grasp and getting up to stretch. I changed my clothes into some casual wear and went into the restroom to do my business. When I was finished I decided to make some pancakes for Mike and Abby since it was a nice Saturday morning. While I was pouring the batter on the pan, Abby walked into the kitchen

"Good Morning Y/n! Is that pancakes I smell?" She asked smiling at me. "Yes it is Abby. They're almost done so sit tight!" I told her as I flipped a couple pancakes. She nodded and sat down in the table patiently. After a couple minutes the food was done and I served them on a plate and gave them to her with some Syrup.

"Good Morning babe" I heard behind me as a pair of arms wrapped around my waist. I smiled and turned around to see Mike smiling at me with his security uniform on. God he always looks hot in a uniform

"Good morning to you too handsome. You look good today" I smiled at him while fixing his collar. I gave him a pec on the lips and went back to the kitchen to finish making the pancakes

"Ewww" Abby said trying to sound disgusted while walking into the kitchen with her plate. I chuckled and grabbed her plate to put in the sink while she ran back to her room. Mike served himself a plate and sat on the table; I also served myself a plate and sat down with him

     "Any luck on the dream yet?" I asked taking a bite of my food. He looked at me and shook his head. I gave him sympathetic look and reassured him he'll a breakthrough soon. Ever since Mike found out about Dream theory he's been, basically, reliving the same even that happened when his brother Garret was kidnapped as a dream. He blames himself for his kidnapping but I try to tell him he was only a kid

     I looked at the clock and realized that if Mike didn't leave in next 10 minutes he was going to be late for work. I swallowed the last of my food and pointed my fork at the clock. "Mike you have to hurry or you're going to be late" I told him before getting up and putting my plate in the sink. He looked at the clock and that made him jolt up to quickly start getting his stuff ready

     After Mike was done he said bye to Abby and I walked him to his car. "Alright babe have fun at work and try not to get fired, okay?" I said giving him a warm smile. He rolled his eyes at me and started the car. I chuckled and gave him a pec on the lips before waving him bye and walking back into the house. I walked into Abby's bedroom to see her playing with her barbies. I don't get why, but Abby seems to be more lively with me than her own brother. We played Barbies together until she got bored and went to draw while I watched tv in the living room, waiting for Mike

Timeskip A Few Hours Later:

(Play the song now)

     Abby and I were watching TV when we heard a car pull up in the driveway. We got up to look out the window when we saw Mike walk out the car. "What's Mike doing here?" Abby asked me. I didn't respond and quickly walked to the front door, Abby following behind me. I opened the door and raised my eyebrows in confusion

"Mike? Why are you home so early? Where's your uniform?" I asked him in a concerned tone. He walked into the house and walked to his bedroom ignoring Abby and I completely. We heard some noises of things falling and moving around in the room so I assumed he got mad and threw some stuff around

"Is he okay?" Abby asked me, slightly tugging on my sleeve. "I don't know Abby. Why don't you go to your room and draw some stuff. I'm gonna talk to your brother, okay?" She nodded her head and walked to her room, closing the door behind her. I sighed and walked to the bedroom door and knocked a couple times

     "Mike? Are you okay?" I asked putting my hand on the door knob. No answer. I took a deep breathe and opened the door to see Mike sitting on the edge of the bed, facing the window, with his head in his hands. There were clothes and objects all over the floor so I guess my assumption was right; he got angry and threw things around

     "Mike? Baby what happened? Where's your uniform?" I asked as I sat down next to him, putting my hand on his shoulder. He looked up from his hands to look at me and his eyes were red from crying and his hair was all messy. I gave him a sympathetic look and he wrapped his arms around me as he started to sob on my shoulder. I put my hands on his head and gently massaged his hair waiting for him to calm down

     "I got fired Y/n... I got fired again! And it's all my fault! I'm such a disappointment..." His voice cracked in between sobs. He gripped my shirt as he started to cry more aggressively, gasping for air every few seconds. I kissed the top of his head while rubbing his back in circular motions. The only time i've ever seen him like this was when his parents passed. Those were the worst months of his life

"I need you to take some deep breathes for me babe. Can you do that?" I cupped his face and he nodded while following directions. Eventually he calmed his breathing down a bit and after a few seconds of silence I spoke up. "You're not a disappointment okay?" I made eye contact with him but he didn't want to do the same

"Mike... I need you to look at me" I cupped his face again. He finally made eye contact and I gave him a warm smile. I repeated what I said before. "You're not a disappointment okay? Not to yourself. Not to me. Not to Abby. Not to anyone... You're going to get through this because we're here for you. No matter what, you got that?" I reassured him, gently putting my hands around his neck. He nodded and leaned in. I smiled and leaned in as well and soon our lips were touching. This kiss was different; it was warm, passionate, full of affection, respect, a reason for us to keep going no matter how many times we're gonna want to give up

We let go of the kiss for air and chuckled as we made eye contact again. We both decided to lay down on the bed and he told me why he got fired. I assured him he was just being protective and he wanted to make sure that what happened to Garret wasn't going to happen to that little kid

I turned my body to face Mike and smiled admiring his perfect face. "You're really handsome, you know that?" I said tracing his jawline with my thumb. He turned around to face me and fixed his body to be more comfortable. He smiled and gave me a peck on the lips

     "Thank you Y/n. I'm really glad you're here... I love you" he said in a raspy voice. God, I loved his raspy voice. I gave him a peck on the lips and ran my fingers through his soft curly hair. "I love you too Mike. I promise you'll find another job. Maybe even i'll find a job if that's what it takes" we both chuckled at the comment and for the next few minutes we sat in comfortable silence enjoying each others company. Today was a really emotional day for Mike so I tried my best to distract him from what happened by watching movies, cooking dinner, and also the occasional make out session here and there
