Michael crept up the stairs hoping you were asleep. He had been getting home later than usual and every night you had been awake. He opened the bedroom door to see you on his laptop watching something on YouTube. He sighed sadly and closed the door behind him.
"Why are you up baby?" He asked quietly. You smiled and got up to hug him.
"I wanted to see you" was your answer.
"But it's late" he glanced at the clock. It was almost 2 am.
"I couldn't sleep" This was the exact same conversation you 2 had every night.
"Do you have insomnia?" Michael asked gently. You huffed and dropped your gaze to the floor. You did but didn't want to say anything about it to Michael. You responded by wrapping your arms tighter around his waist.
"You do" he whispered more to himself. "Come on" he lifted you up and walked downstairs.
"What are you doing?" You asked as he placed you down on the couch.
"Find something on tv to watch" he said tossing you the remote. He left the room and went to the kitchen.
"Are you hungry?" He yelled.
"No" you answered back. He nodded and looked through the fridge. He decided of left over pizza and warmed it up. He sat in the kitchen alone thinking of a way to help you. He knew there was medication but he wasn't sure if it worked or not.
"Michael?" You asked. He jumped from his seat but relaxed when he saw you.
"Yeah what do you need?"
"You" you whispered. Michael smiled and opened his arms. You went and sat on his lap burying your face in his neck. Michael started brushing his fingers through your hair.
"Do you trust me?" He whispered.
"A lot" you mumbled.
"Good" he pushed you off his lap and got on his knees. You climbed on his back like he wanted and he walked out the back door into the darkness.
"What are we doing?"
"Trust me" he muttered.
"A pond" you whispered.
"Do you like it babe?" Michael whispered in your ear. He came behind you and grabbed your waist.
"Its awesome"
"Here come with me" he kissed right under your ear. He started pushing you closer to the water.
"No" you tried fighting him but he was stronger and soon you both stood in the water. It only reached your ankles and you had combat boots on so it didn't really matter. You stood there for hours. Michaels arms around you, his chin on your shoulder, whispering random things to you until you could barely keep your eyes open and Michael was keeping you standing.
"Let's go back home baby" he whispered shifting so he could pick you up bridal style.
"I love you Mikey" you mumbled. Michael smiled and pecked your forehead. It didn't take long for Michael to carry you home. You were asleep by the time he made it. He pulled your wet shoes off and laid you down on the bed. He kissed your forehead once more and laid down next to you.
"I love you too"
