Trigger My Nightmare Once Again -a Perrentes Fanfiction-

Love is patient

Tony POV

I'm in love with Michael.
As much as I try to push him away I just can't. And I know he loves me. It's just weird because we still aren't official. But we don't need some title to be together. He cares for me. And I know it hurts him that he can't really do anything but let me know he would never hurt me and he would be here for me. And I believe him. I just have to let my guard down.

Later that day Mike and I were just sitting and watching tv.

"Mike?" I ask quietly.
His eyes widened in surprise. Probably because this is the first time I've talked to him since the incident. "Yes turtle?" He replied looking me in the eye with all of his attention. "I love you." I say slightly smiling. "I love you more" he replied kissing me softly yet passionately. As the kiss heated up to the point that he was straddling me-- we both pulled away knowing that I wasn't going to be ready for this anytime soon. I was comfortable with mike, it's just that Justin really fucking ruined things. I don't ever want to hear, see, or talk about him again.

"You know turtle, you're different." He says sitting back down next to me as he pulled me close.
"How so?"
"You are so strong. You've been through hell and continue to be so open minded and kind to others? How do you do it tone? How do you stay to sweet to others when they're so bitter to you?" Tears started to develop in his yes and I wiped the first one away.
I didn't really know how to respond to this.
"I wouldn't wish anything I've been through upon my worst enemy. You don't know everyone's story and what everyone has been through. You never know if they go home everyday wanting to kill themselves. You really don't know how they feel on the inside unless they tell you. So why not be a sign to someone. A sign that you care about them and need them to push through whatever they go through. You know, some of the nicest people are the depressed? Because they know the feeling of being useless. If you can make someone's day with a simple act of kindness, then why not?" I stop my rambling to look up at mikes face. He was smiling. I couldn't help but to smile back at him.

"You are absolutely amazing. "
