The next day Michael was crying. Crying because someone from school said he was disgusting and he believed them.

He was so sick of crying almost every day.

He wanted to call Luke, to ask him to come over, but Luke had his own problems.

Now he knew what Luke felt.

Trapped.

To his surprise, his phone started to ring.

"Hello?" Michael asked.

"Babe," Luke chirped. "You haven't called me all day, is everything alright?"

"Y-eah." Michael lied. "J-just been busy with homework."

"Oh okay. Mind if I come over?"

Michaels eyes widened as he eyed his reflection. It couldn't be more obvious that he'd been crying for 3 hours straight.

"Uh, no."

"Why?" Luke asked.

"I'm b-busy, bye."

Michael hung up and brought his knees to his chest. What was he going to do?

There was a soft knock at his door and michael started to panic.

"N-no!" He yelped and ran to the door, blocking it.
"Michael?" Luke asked. "What's going on?"

Michael squeezed his eyes shut, expelling tears. "N-nothing."

Luke pushed against the door, and it opened no matter how much Michael tried to hold it.
The small boy was no match for Luke.

Luke walked in and looked Michael up and down, stopping at his puffy eyes and red nose.

"Michael sweetheart, what's wrong?"

Michael looked down and folded his arms together, suddenly feeling so self conscious.

"N-nothing Luke." He sniffled.

"I'm here for you Mikey, you have to tell me."

"No!" Michael whimpered away from Luke's touch on his shoulder.

"Baby my job is to make you happy," Luke frowned.

"What about you?" Michael asked quietly. "I want to make you happy."

"You being happy is what makes me happy though, Mikey."

Luke grabbed Michaels hand and sat on the bed, sitting Michael in his lap, hugging him close.

"Tell me your thoughts if they're worrying to you."

Michael took a breath. "You matter too. You have bad thoughts too, it's not all about me."

"It is." Luke laughed to himself. "It's all about you sweetheart, wanna know why?"

Michael nodded and sniffled.

"Because I love you, and you mean more to me than I mean to me, or anyone else for that matter. So tell me."

Michael sighed, hiding his face with his hands.

"I w-want to d-die."

"What?" Luke's eyes widened. "Baby no, come on-"

"I want to." Michael repeated.

"Why would you ever wanna do something like that?"

"Why would you?" Michael shot back and Luke frowned sadly.

"That's a p-personal issue." Luke tensed.

Michael started to cry all over.
"See? I can't do anything right."

"Yeah you can-"

"I can't! I couldn't even notice you were sad because I was too caught up in myself and getting you to help me. I'm awful. And look, I'm doing it again!"

"Michael baby, look at me." Luke spoke softly. When Michael didn't, he tilted his head up.

"You're everything to me. You make me happy just by the way you are." Luke's eyes glazed over as he paired it with a fond smile. "Anything that worries you worries me. Having said that, you're the most beautiful thing I think I've ever seen, please don't ever leave me."

Michael breathed out. "I-I- don't know."

"Babe." Luke spoke again. "Don't think you'd be better off dead. I wouldn't be anything without you."

Michael wiped tears from his eyes.
"T-t-thankyou."

"S'alright beautiful."

Michael whimpered as he curled into Luke's side, Luke rubbing circles in his back to calm him down.

"So pretty." Luke mumbled against Michaels skin.

Michael kissed Luke's cheek softly.
"Night."

"Night sweetheart."

He laid michael down under the covers and left that night.

He probably wouldn't get enough sleep, but he was fine with that.
