Michael Afton x Noah Martinez: Afterlife love

Worries

20th August

Micheal and Noah slept. Like usually when work didn't interrupted. Noah's arm wrapped around his lover's body, as the other slept on top of him. At least Mike tried. He shifted around in the bed not being able to sleep.

Eventually Noah was woken up by his boyfriend tossing around in bed. He wrapped his arm around Mike's waist and pulled him closer.

N: What's wrong?

His arm wrapping around Mike's waist and his groggy tone caught the man by surprise.

M: I can't sleep...

N: Why?

M: That thing appeared in my dream.

Micheal let out a sigh before a soft groan of pain.

M: My head is fucking killing me...

Mike touched his head and felt some liquid on his fingers.

M: What the...

Noah's curiosity was caught by Micheal. He propped himself on his elbow and looked down at his lover.

N: What happened?

Mike reached to a nightstand and turned on a lamp. His eyes met with blood on his hand. The sight made him feel uneasy and scared.

M: Blood? How come?

N: What?

Noah grabbed Mike's wrist and looked at it to see the blood, then at his head.

N: Because you're bleeding...

He got out of the bed and took Mike's hand to pull him to the bathroom. He sat Micheal on a toilet, and took first aid from a cabinet. He pulled out a cotton pad, poured hydrogen peroxide on it and washed the blood off Mike's head.

N: Did you hit your head or what?

M: No, I don't think so...

The man looked at the wound and let out a soft sight of relief.

N: It's alright, it's nothing very serious.

Noah took a bandage and put it on the wound. He looked at his beloved with a worried expression and confusion.

N: How about we go on a walk?

M: At this hour?

N: It's probably like 5 am so why not?

M: I guess so... Okay, if you insist.

As they walked hand in hand through a nearby park Noah couldn't stop gazing at Mike with worry.

N: Why would all of this happen all of the sudden?

Micheal didn't answer for a couple of seconds. Until suddenly he stopped.

M: What day is it?

Noah got a little confused but looked at the date in his flip phone.

N: 20th August, why?

Micheal once again went silent before answering Noah's question.

M: Maybe it might sound stupid, but the first time I saw this creature was 2nd August. It's when Daniel was born, and on 20th August in '96 we started dating. Do you think it's a coincidence?

Noah got a little surprised by the information. This time he was the one to not answer immediately.

N: Mike, you know I love you, right?
