It had been two days and Luke had refused to leave Michael's room. Calum occasionally popped in to see him and make sure he had food but Calum was a busy guy and therefore Luke was alone.
He couldn't cry any more. He'd been crying for two days straight and he really could do no more.
"Michael sweetheart, I... I need you to wake up for me."
His eyes started to glisten. "Fuck, I'm crying AGAIN." He wiped his eyes and turned away from Michael.
"I c-can't even look at you. I can't picture me without you Mikey I can't. I w-want you to marry me."
He rubbed his face roughly and stared at the ring in his hands. It glistened like Michael's eyes and that's why he got it.He softly cried, squeezing his eyes shut and trying to block out any fragment of reality.
"Why are you crying?"
Luke continued to cry. He hated that he was imagining things now.
"Luke?"
Luke stopped breathing and slowly opened his eyes and turned to the bed.
Michael was lying with his eyes slightly open staring tiredly at Luke.
Luke's eyes shot open and his breaths came out in short bursts as he scrambled to his feet and rushed to Michael.
"M-Mikey? Oh m-my god are you okay? I thought you'd gone. I'm gonna get a doctor just wait her-"
"Luke." Michael interrupted weakly.
"Y-yes?" He replied, trying so hard to fight the tears flinging themselves from his eyes.
"Can I have a kiss p-please?" He tried to laugh but he was too upset to. He gripped Luke's hand and pulled him down so their lips melted together into one big emotional moment.
Michael felt wetness on his face and knew it was Luke's tears and he immediately pulled away.
"I'm s-sorry." Michael started to tear up.
"N-no just calm down I have to get a doctor now." Luke said and ran out the room.
Luke had to wait outside whilst the doctor checked Michael and he didn't know what to think.
"Michael can have visitors now, we have to keep him in overnight observation but he will be able to go home tomorrow we expect."
"T-thank you." Luke gushed and strode in.
His eyes met Michael and he immediately noticed the tears. He squeezed Michael so tight that Michael wheezed and he recoiled and had to let go.
"I thought you'd gone."
"I thought we both had." Michael looked down. "There was a point you know when... I thought you..." Michael started to cry and his face scrunched up. "That you weren't coming to save me."
Luke's eyebrows furrowed. "I'd always come to save you."
"I know." Michael smiled a little. "Because I'm your princess, right?"
"Absolutely." Luke smiled and kissed Michael's cheek. Michael rested his head on Luke's shoulder as they hugged and Luke felt the nervousness in the boy."They'll be put away." Luke confirmed. "They wont ever hurt you again."
"She's my m-um." He frowned.
"She's no mother of yours." Luke argued. "Michael I can't put this off any longer... that's where this problem came from."Luke pulled away and fished for something in his pocket. "Michael will you marry me?"
Michaels hands flew to his mouth as he gasped. "L-luke you don't have to do this-""Yes. I do. I need you, Michael."
Michael took a breath and looked at Luke lovingly through his blurry vision. "I will."
Luke cried and slid the ring onto Michael's finger shakily."Forever?" Michael asked, squeezing Luke tightly.
"Forever, Mikey, forever." Luke confirmed.
