Disconnected ♡ muke

- chapter twenty-two -

For the past few weeks or ever since the doctor told Luke he was pregnant the blond boy has been waking up in the middle of the night.

It was either the morning sickness that decided to keep him up at three in the morning or just the stress and bad dreams. Luke was well aware that he was in no state to carry a baby. But he was and he knew that there was one person who could make anything better or a lot worse.

When he woke up he noticed there was still dark outside and he wanted to scream and cry because he just wanted to sleep.

Then he first noticed he wasn't tired anymore and then realized he was pressed against a warm body.

"Hey," Michael whispered. "Are you okay babe?"

Luke looked up and tears filled up his eyes. Michael just wanted to ask what's wrong but then Luke smiled and kissed him.

The older of the two never really went to sleep. He just waited for Luke to fall asleep before he took his phone and computer and started planning.

When the short but sweet kiss was over Michael rubbed his thumb over Luke's cheek. "I'm here now. I'm not leaving you."

"I love you," Luke said, still crying.

Michael pulled him up so he was in a sitting position as well. "C'mon, you need to take your vitamins. It's almost ten and you should take them at seven."

Luke took the bottle Michael passed to him. All the pregnant things were well hidden in case Ryan or Michael decided to pay him a visit and ignore his change of weight and the bump he would normally hide underneath one of Michael's shirts.

"How do you know about them?"

Michael squeezed him closer and Luke noticed his boyfriend had a lot of tabs open.

"I called your mum."

He swallowed the recommended quantity of vitamins and gave Michael a questioning look. "What did she say?"

"That she was very happy and very proud that you decided to call me.."

"But-"

"And that she can't wait to see us both tomorrow."

"Michael you didn't have to lie to her."

"I think you're a very strong person of which I'm very proud of and I don't see a reason why your mother wouldn't be."

Luke almost started crying again. He could already see how emotional his pregnancy will be like. "What about your parents?" He had no intentions of pushing Michael to tell them. He wasn't the role model for honesty but he knew how close he was with his parents.

Their gazes met and Michael pushed Luke's hair off his face. "They're also coming here tomorrow. My dad wants you to get the best doctor here and he's already called one of his colleagues back home who'll be our doctor when we get back." When Michael said we he placed his hand on Luke's little bump and Luke regretted not calling Michael before he came himself. He felt stupid for thinking Michael would be mad and broke up with him.

Big blue eyes stared at Michael. "Were they mad?"

Michael smiled sweetly. "No. They were happy that you're not breaking up with me. They'd be heartbroken about that."

"I guess they really like me." Luke giggled.

"They do. And they also love their son a lot and agree with him on the fact that you are the best thing that has ever happened to him."

They've kissed yet again. They had a lot to catch up on. Including kissing.

"What are you looking at?" Luke snuggled against his lover and decided to pay attention to something that wasn't Michael for the first time since he woke up.

"A lot of things. Apartments, books, jobs."

"I was so scared to even think about the future. I wasted so much time."

"Stop. I don't blame you." Michael said looking at his boy. The one he needed to protect. "What you did isn't important. I don't think we're having trust issues and I don't blame you for what you did. You were scared but so brave at the same time."

Luke nodded. "Why were you looking for apartments?" He asked and settled his head back on Michael's shoulder.

"Mine is definitely too small for three of us to be living there together. We could live in my parent's house because the second floor could be all ours. It even has a kitchen and everything but it's a bit far away from our campus and university."

"Mikey, I don't think I can go to uni pregnant." His face fell. He realized that beforehand as well.

"You can. I called and asked and they've said you can complete the first half and then with your due date in March you can go back a year later when our baby is big enough and complete the second year. I won't let your dreams fall apart because of this. I've called Ryan as well and we've agreed that you stay here for the three weeks you have left. I'll come down every weekend and we'll actually talk every day. Then when you come back you'll be back just in time for your late birthday present. Which I know we already celebrated but still. Then we're both going to uni. I'll try and find a better job but both of our parents will support us if we need them to. Okay?"

Luke smiled. "Okay."

"Now let's look at some apartments I've found. Then we'll shower and then make sure you get loads of rest. You're sleeping for two as well so you need it."

"We should also plan where are we going for breakfast tomorrow because I'm eating for two as well."
