Michael stared into Ashton's eyes as he said, "I love you."
Ashton choked on a sob, "Please don't go with them, please," He begged Michael.
Michael looked at Ashton with sadness, love, and hurt. It embodied him, it took over his emotions and he could no longer feel anything else. As much as he wanted to stay, he couldn't.
"If I don't go, they'll hurt you, and I don't think I could live with myself if anything happened to you," Michael told him.
Ashton had tears rolling down his cheeks, his anger gone from finding out what Michael did. Michael teared up as well, he lifted his hands to Ash's face and wiped the tears away with his thumbs. He leaned forward and pressed a tender kiss to his lips.
"How can I go on not knowing if you're okay?" Ashton says after he pulls away.
"I'll always be okay if I know that you are," Michael tells him.
The room was sad, tense and dreary all at once. Luke and Calum sat on the couch in the corner of the room, watching the scene fold out in front of them. If you told them six months ago that they would be turned into vampires, dating each other and now watching two other vampires say their goodbyes to each other, they probably would have worried for your mental health.
Michael looked into the eyes that he loved so much,"I'm sorry that we got stuck in this house, I should have took you traveling, shown you the world. I should have been truthful with you. But I don't regret meeting you, I'm glad I had the time with you that I did, and if I could take back what I did, I would. I'm sorry, so, so, sorry."
Ashton shook his head,"I don't regret a single moment, I understand why we never left now and it's fine, don't regret anything, just be thankful for the time we have, I love you, and I will find a way to save you, I promise."
"Don't, stay here with Calum and Luke and look after them, relocate, live happily without me" Michael said, choked up, as a tear rolled down his face.
"It's impossible for me to be happy without you, please, hold out for as long as you can," Ashton said and kissed Michael with the most passion and love as he could, wrapping his arms around Michael's waist.
Cameron entered the room,"Times up, hope you used your time wisely."
The boys broke apart, and Michael swallowed a lump in his throat, savoring the moment, "I'll love you, even after death, for the second time."
"I love you to the moon and back," Ashton smiled sadly.
"To the moon and back," Michael says as Cameron grabs his arm.
"Time to go," Cameron says, and Michael takes one last look at Ashton's tear stained face, until he is dragged out of view.
Cameron looked at him with disgust,"You wouldn't need to do that if you just behaved yourself."
His words and the way he looked at Michael made a wave of guilt wash through him. He knows he fucked up. Now, he's going to die for it.
The men take him away to headquarters, meanwhile back at the house Ashton was having a mental breakdown. He was throwing shit around, punching walls and screaming a bunch of profanities and angry words. Tears rolling down his cheeks and hair disheveled from pulling on it. He was trying to find a way to stop Michael's execution, but nothing would work. He didn't know where to go, and couldn't follow them because that would be suspicious and he didn't know how he would go up against however many vampires there were to save the love of his life.
Luke and Calum tried to calm him down at first but when he just wasn't listening they decided it was best to leave it. He had been doing this for half an hour already and they didn't know what to do. Suddenly, the noise stopped. Luke and Calum looked at each other, confused.
Ashton quickly entered the living room, he looked a mess and as he spoke it was rough and scratchy,"We need to find him, we can't let him die."
"We know you're hurting Ashton, but I think you should take at least a minute to sit down and take a breather, obviously I don't know what you're feeling but please, just try and take some deep breaths," Luke said to him.
Ashton was about to yell at him, to tell him not to boss him around but instead he just sucked in a deep breath and sat down. It was quiet for a few seconds, each boy having thoughts racing through their minds like crazy at the dilemma that just happened.
"I can follow his scent," Ashton said as the realisation dawned on him, "I can follow his scent and I can save him, I can get him away from them, we can leave to a different state or even country, and everything will be alright."
Calum winced,"How will we know what the security is like? There could a hundred vampires, if not more on guard at all times."
"I don't care, if I die trying so be it, if you won't come with me, then that's fine with me, but I'm going to find the love of my fucking life and I am going to save him," Ashton said, rushing upstairs and getting things ready and something to follow Michael's scent with.
Luke and Calum stood, looking at each other with uncertainty.
Ashton was soon downstairs and quickly asked them, "So, are you in or out, either way I'm going."
The boys looked at each other, as if having a discussion with their eyes.
"In," They chorused.
