My Darkest Love

Chapter Part 34

After breakfast, Micah and I headed out to our jobs for the day. Luckily he got off earlier than me and we both met up at a local restaurant.  I locked the car and walked inside. The strong smell of deep fried food and coffee filling my nostrils. I looked around to see what the place was like and noticed Micah in the back. Micah was already sitting at a booth with a cup of coffee in his hand. The only downside of this was a girl sitting across from him. "Hey?" I walked up to them and immediately caught them both off guard. "Hey Luca, this is my sister Nicole."

"OH hi. Sorry to disturb you guys, I can let you guys be if you want."

Micah grabbed my arm as I tried to walk away. "No sit. I want you to meet each other."

"Okay." I was a bit embarrassed as I sat down. A lump stuck in my throat with each passing second. 

"Luca, it's nice to meet you. My brother said you both were in a relationship? I'm all for the gays and their lifestyle. I find it super sweet that you care for him."

"Nice to meet you too. I uh I don't come across many people who accept that lifestyle."

Nicole took a sip of her drink before speaking. "Sadly yes. I wish more people were nice about it but we live in a messed up world. Our cousin Tracey was lesbian and ended up being forced to go to a camp to save her life. She came back and was so different. Her personality changed and she was so shut in. But thankfully she is married to a women named Heather. Happy ending you know?"

"My parents kicked me out cause they found out. They said I wasn't their son and to never return back."

Nicole reached across the table and placed her hand with mine. "I'm sorry you went through that. Micah will take care of you and so will I. You are family now."

I blushed red at her words like an idiot. She gave such a comforting smile and warm heart. "Thank you Nicole."

"My pleasure. Now I need to get back to work otherwise I'll get fired." She giggled and placed her apron back on. "I always get stuck chatting away."

I laughed. She winked at us and went back to her shift. 
"So what would you like to eat?"

"I was just thinking some hamburgers?"

"Heck yeah."

We ordered our food off a kiosk and waited by playing cards at the table. Soon enough our food arrived an man was it looking absolutely delicious. The first bite was so mouthwatering good as the melted cheese and the juicy burger filled my tastebuds. After we finished our food, we split ways as he got a call mid eating and had to return to work. I whined as I begged him to stay which only made him smile at my response. "I have to go Luca. I'll be home soon, why don't you go pick us out a couple movies and we can have a movie night?" 

"Sure, any requests?"

Micah shrugged and kissed my cheek before getting in his vehicle. I sighed as I watched him exit the street, back to the hospital. I got into my car and drove off to the local movie renters. It was a small place that sold and rented out all kinds of movies including porn. I found it disgusting but then again what I'm doing is the same. It still shocks me that I've had sex and with two people so far. I don't think that it's wrong right?

After picking up some fliks, I made it home and tossed my jacket onto to the couch before plopping down myself. I was stretching as a knock-on door caused me to tense up for a second. I got up and peeked out the peep hole. A random guy holding flowers was standing outside. I opened the door and peered out. "Can I help you?"

"Delivery for Luca?" 

"That's me."

"Here you go young man. Have a good night." He handed me the flowers and I stood there dumbfounded. Who would send me flowers?

I looked for a note, but the only thing was a ribbon with the letter m on it. I gulped and panicked as I set them down on the coffee table and reached for my phone. 

I quickly texted Micah and asked if he bought my flowers but before I hit send another number messaged me. 

-Hey. Hope you like.- 

The number was not in my contacts and pure anxiety set in. Who the hell knew where I lived and got my number. 

The rest of the afternoon I sat on the couch staring at the beautiful bouquet of sunflowers. Eventually Micah got home and set his keys on the hook before walking into the living room. He stopped and tilted his head in confusion. "You okay?"

I wasn't paying attention as I was completely zoned out that I didn't hear him speak. "Luca?!"

He shouted and it broke my concentration. "Jesus. Sorry, I uh..."

"Are you alright Luca?"

"Yeah. I uh got some flowers for the apartment."

"They look good. I have extra vases outside on the balcony that could use flowers."

I nodded and gave him a smile. "I got the movies."

"Sweet. I'll be out in a few."

I waited till he left before I quickly deleted the text and tossed my phone to the couch.
