Baby, They Don't Know About Us

Luke

Michael texted me earlier to meet him at a small café. Why does he want me to come out in public with him, who knows?

I walked down the empty streets and just thought. I had skipped school because I couldn't sleep last night. I looked horrible. I had bags under my eyes. I sighed. Why does this have to happen to me? I mean, anyone else would've just left Michael...

My thoughts were cut short when I realized I stood in front of the café. To say I was nervous was an understatement. I'm terrified. I know Michael and I are in a fight, but I really hope we don't break up... Or should we?

I shook my head of the thoughts and headed into the café. I quickly found the black hair boy and headed over. He was sat in the back looking as terrible as me. I walked over to him and sat down across from him. He looked up and smiled small at me. I smiled too. I could never not smile around Michael, no matter what if he smiled at me I would smile back.

"How've you been?" He asked. His voice sounded broken and that made my smile falter. "Not good." I answered slowly. "How've you been?" I asked. "I've been horrible Luke... I couldn't sleep last night at all." He told me. He didn't say Lukey. He didn't say penguin. He said Luke. "I couldn't sleep either. That's why I'm not in school." I told him shrugging. He nodded just as a middle-aged lady waitress came over to us.

"Is this your boyfriend?" The lady asked Michael. "Yes." "No." We looked at each other confused. Michael actually said I was his boyfriend while I denied it. "Yes, yes, he is my boyfriend..." Michael told her. She nodded.

"Okay... What can I get ya?" She asked taking out a notepad. "I don't have money." I said. "I'll pay." Michael told me. I sighed. "We'll both have a hot chocolate with extra whipped cream and cinnamon on top." He said knowing exactly what to pick to make me better. She nodded and headed back to the counter.

"Why did you say no?" Michael asked as soon as the waitress left. "Why did you say yes?" I countered. "Because you're my boyfriend, right?" He asked looking worried. "Am I?" I asked tearing up slightly. "I don't know..." Michael answered putting his face in his hands.

"Do you still love me? Honestly, do you?" Michael asked looking up at me. "I do... I really do, but I don't think we can do this as a secret, Michael." I told him. I didn't say Mikey. I didn't say kitty. I said Michael. The waitress then came back with our drinks.

"Do you guys want to know something?" She asked. We both shrugged. She grabbed a chair and sat next to us. "You boys seem great together. You guys love each other, you miss each other and you obviously can't sleep knowing that your relationship his being torn apart by everything and everyone around you two... But, you just need to focus on each other." She told us.

We both looked at each other then back at her. "My name is Carla. If you need me I'm here 7 days a week." She said getting up and heading back from where she came from. "What do you want to do?" Michael asked. "I want everyone to know about us." I told him honestly.

"Baby, they don't know about us and it was better that way." Michael told me. "For who? You? Because it wasn't good for me, at all." I told him. He sighed and looked down. We both haven't touched our hot chocolates. "Can we just, please, can we talk about this later and just enjoy that we have alone time together?" Michael asked. He sounded desperate, so I nodded finally taking a sip of my drink.

"I just don't like that they don't know about us..." I sighed. "Baby, they don't know about us and that's fine. As long as we love each other right?" Michael said. I nodded. "I guess..." I smiled. He reached a hand across the table. My smile grew slightly and I put my hand in his, feeling the small spark as always.
