Michael Vey Fanfic: Evil Michael (#Wattys2016)

Second Thoughts

Last night was crazy. But not as crazy as taking down the Elgen. When Taylor left to get some breakfast, Hook busted through the glass-pane window of my room. "Aww man.. Dude! Now I gotta clean this up!" I whined. "Relax ol' chum. I'm just making sure you're all right. Since.. you know.. you're going to blow up your home and all." Hook said. "I'm gonna sabotage my own plan, don't worry." "Huh?" Hook said confused. "I mean, I'm going to purposely mess up the mission. But enough to make it look like a real mistake." I explained. Hook nodded. He looked at my bed. "Well you had fun" He teased. "Yeah.." I said, rubbing the back of my neck. "Why are you really here?" I asked my brother. "Well, I heard about your engagement" He said. "Really! I was about to tell yo-" I tried to say but Hook cut me off. "I don't like it" He said. "What!" I whined. "I'm not letting you marry that girl" He said. "What do you mean!" I continued whining. "I mean, she's a good influence. You need bad influences." He said. "C'mon brother!" I whined again. "How about we backtrack first... When you were at the jail, Taylor said she was fine with breaking up. But now you're gonna MARRY her! So from what I saw, you're marrying someone who doesn't love you." He said. "She DOES love me!" I argued. "Well, it seems to me that you're doing all the work. Yeah, of course I like that you made the move. But she hasn't done much for you." "And she's suppose to?" I asked. "Yes, at least comfort you at all. Has she done that? No." He said. I didn't say anything. "She loves me, I know it" I said less confidently. "I'll give you time to sleep on it." He said dissapeering. The day went by crazy fast. It was about 6:00 pm. When Taylor came in she said, "Michael, you alright? You seem tense." She said. I didn't notice her. "Earth to Michael..." She teased. "Huh?" I said snapping out of deep thought. "Are you alright?" She said rubbing my back. "It's nothing." I denied

I couldn't sleep. I was starting to question if Taylor does love me. I tried using my memories of her and I. Comparing the good with the bad. But all I could think of were doubts. Was this all a mistake? Does she really love me? What if Hook was right?
