SIDE STAGE TECH

Chapter 20

Mike did get the part in the musical thankfully, and I was the trusty tech guy. Trying to balance the musical and schoolwork was tough but after a while we eventually managed to work it out. It was just after rehearsal on a blustery March Friday, when I was on my laptop, putting the last finishing touches on my history of Greece paper  that Mike decided to distract me. I felt his lips make their way to my neck, kissing and sucking in certain spots, trying to get a reaction. It wasn't until he reached a spot just under my jaw on the left side that he got a reaction. I gritted my teeth, trying to hold back a moan as he smirked against my skin and kept sucking. "Ugh fine." I gasped, turning to kiss him properly. Even though I had kissed him hundreds of times I still got a surge of butterflies and happiness when we kissed, and by God, Mike was probably the best kisser out there. I lay back on my bed, letting Mike crawl on top of me without breaking the kiss. His teeth gently nipped at my lower lip, asking for access, which I quickly granted. Our tongues met and glided against one another as Mike's fingers laced with mine. Then, his lips travelled back to my neck, finding my sweet spot quickly. "M-Mike I kind of need to work on my assignment. "Awe, c'mon Tony. Can you fool around for a few minutes?" he grinned, looking up at me. "Ugh fine." I grumbled, flopping back on the bed and letting Mike unzip my pants. This wasn't the first time we had done this, the first time was a few weeks ago, and it was amazing even though we hadn't actually had sex it was perfect. I truly loved Mike with all my heart.

After we had uh...finished our activities I lay down, curled up to Mike and finished my assignment with my head gently resting on my lover's shoulder. "Mike?" I said, yawning a little.
"Mhm?" He mumbled tiredly.
"I have to go back to San Diego for my mother's birthday. Do you mind if I borrow your car for the weekend?" I asked him. "Yeah sure. How are you guys celebrating it?" He questioned, pulling me closer to him and wrapping his arms around me tightly.
"Probably just going to our cabin." I replied. "We do it every year. Just the two of us, we rent a bunch of movies and basically binge watch all night until we can't keep our eyes open."
"Sounds fun." He mumbled, kissing the corner of my mouth. "The car keys are by the door."
"Thanks babe." I said gratefully, kissing him gently and untangling myself from his arms. "I love you!" He called as I grabbed my backpack and the keys.
"I love you too!" I smiled, walking out the door.

"Tony!" My mom squealed, throwing her arms around my neck. I had just arrived at our house and mom had seemed to be waiting for me with a whole bunch of movies sitting next to her backpack. "Hey mama!" I said, hugging her back.
"How's school? How's Mike? Are you eating enough?" She bombarded me with questions. I laughed. "School is fine, Mike is good, yeah I've been eating enough don't worry." I smiled.
"Oh thank god!" My mom exclaimed. "Okay let's go. I'm assuming that's Mike's car?" She asked. I nodded. "Well we're taking our van as usual." She said, referring to the old Volkswagen van we owned. "Alright." I said, following her out the door.

"I love Mike." I blurted out randomly, 1 hour into the drive to our cabin. My moms face broke into a smile. "Really?" She asked.
"Yeah." I replied confidently. "I told him...He loves me." Mom's smile grew even wider. "Good. He's a nice boy and it seems like he treats you right." My mom smiled, ruffling my hair. I smiled back at her and we fell into a conversation about comic books.
