they say the devil's water - it ain't so sweet, you don't have to drink right now. but you can dip your feet, every once in a little while.
when you were young // the killerslater on that day, luke walked to the bus stop the second time that week.
he stood under the same sign as last time, but there was no michael anywhere. luke looked around, he was sure he saw the boy earlier at school.
he furrowed his eyebrows slightly and watched the tree's leaves move gently with the wind.
luke suddenly felt a tap on his shoulder and turned quickly, only to be met with emerald eyes. michael smirked, "so you're following me now or what?"
"no, my mum's working again so i have to take the bus. don't feel special", luke rolled his eyes but still managed to crack a small smile.
michael laughed softly and stood next to luke, examining the features of his face softly. his messy blonde hair, his baby blue eyes, the little cute slope of his nose, his pretty pink lips. luke was so pretty, michael thought.
but he snapped out of that stupid thought quickly, scolding himself for thinking about the cute blonde boy.
"you know, i really don't know a lot about you" luke said, looking at michael.
"that's good, it's better if you didn't"
"but that just makes me want to know about you even more clifford"
michael looked down at his beaten up converse, hands in his pockets, "what do you want to know hemmings?"
there was always something specific that people wanted to know about michael. whether the rumors were true, whether he even liked jason or not, how many girls had he slept with and so on. he never liked those questions and he always hated answering them. so he was secretly hoping luke wasn't one of those people.
"anything" was all luke replied.
michael let out a relieved sigh and thanked god for luke hemmings.
"well, my name's michael gordon clifford, i'm 18, i really don't know what else you'd want to know luke?"
the blonde boy shrugged, "your likes, dislikes, hobbies, sexual preference, anything really"
"why do you want to know my sexual preference?" michael asked yet again with a smirk on his lips, "are you hoping i'm into guys so you could suck my dick?"
luke's cheeks flushed a light pink color at the dirty words coming from his mouth and he gently punched the other boys arm. "trust me, i wouldn't want my mouth anywhere near your dick, probably tastes like tobacco after smoking all those cigarettes"
"bad idea comparing my dick to tobacco"
"why?" luke asked.
"because just like tobacco, you can get addicted to my dick" michael winked at the already flushed boy.
"you're unbelievable clifford" luke rolled his eyes and looked at michael. they both laughed.
"i am though" michael blurted out.
"you're what?"
"i'm gay. well, i'm bi, i like girls and guys. i've never told anyone that"
luke looked up at the boy, "why not?"
michael simply shrugged, "they never ask". they stood in silence for a while until michael began talking again. "and you?", he asked nudging luke.
the smaller boy kicked a rock with his shoe, "i'm gay, i just like boys"
michael slowly nodded and smiled, reaching into his pocket for a cigarette. he got a hold of it, put it to his lips once again and inhaled the smoke, blowing it out a few seconds later
luke scrunched his nose up, "why do you smoke, michael?"
"why not?"
"i told you it's killing you slowly"
"we're all gonna die sooner or later luke, i happen to want to die quicker than most teenagers" he said bringing the cigarette to his lips again.
then luke did something that made michael freeze in place.
he placed his hand over michael's, moving it away from his lips, along with his cigarette.
luke took the cigarette out of his fingers, michael not breaking his gaze from luke's movements. the blonde boy threw it to the floor and stepped on it turning the small flame out.
"life is so beautiful michael, we may not see it yet, but when we do. we're not going to want to do anything other than stay alive for just one more day" the blue eyed boy spoke so softly to michael, leaving him speechless.
after a while, the bus for luke came along.
he said bye to michael but all michael did was watch him get onto the bus and the doors slowly close shut.
as the bus went on its way michael couldn't help but feel scared, because that was the first time someone actually cared about michael. and that never happens.
