| IMAGINE for @tutalhab |

     You stare at Michael after having just sung If I Didn't Care with him in the casino. You never realized how much that song resonates with you, with your feelings for Michael. You're truly, deeply in love with Michael. But he doesn't love you back. A pain weighs in your heart just thinking about it. You blink back tears. Michael is in love with Delysia, an actress and singer who performs at the casino too.

     When the first tear slides down your cheek, you quickly brush it away, in hopes that no one saw it. One look at Michael and your heart sinks. He's looking at you worriedly. Without a word, you turn on your heel and walk into the back room, needing to leave the casino. It's too claustrophobic being in the same building with Michael. It's too...painful.

     You walk out the back door when you hear your name being called. You sigh deeply, knowing the voice belongs to Michael.

     "Y/N, wait!" He exclaims. You walk into the alley and then turn around.

     Michael walks out the door and shuts it behind him. "Why did you leave?" He asks.

     "Uh..." You say, grasping for something to say. "I needed some fresh air...? Yeah, yeah, I needed some air." You finally tell him, nodding.

     Michael slowly walks towards you. "Y/N, what's wrong?" He asks softly. "I feel like there's so much tension between us." He says. You open your mouth and then shut it, not knowing what to tell him.

     "I need to know, Y/N. It's killing me." Michael whispers, his eyes staring intently into yours. He steps so close to you, making your heart pound.

     "Michael, I-" You stop, your eyes filling up with tears. His eyebrows draw with worry. You take a deep breath and let it out. You look down. "Michael, I'm in love with you. I know-I know you're in love with Delysia, and that's what's causing the tension. Every time I sing with you...every time I see you, my heart breaks because I know there will never be anything between us. It kills me." You whisper, your voice wavering.

     When Michael doesn't say anything, you look up at him, tears spilling down your cheeks. His lips are parted and his eyes search yours. "Y/N, I-I don't love Delysia." He admits.

     Your eyebrows draw quizzically. "You don't?" You ask.

     "No, no, not at all." He answers. He puts his hands on your upper arms. "I love...I love you." He claims.

     "What?!" You exclaim incredulously.

     "It's always been you, Y/N. I've always loved you." He says.

     "Oh, Michael." You breathe. Michael moves his hand up to caress the side of your neck. He leans his head down and kisses you softly. You sigh and wrap your arms around him just as Miss Pettigrew walks out the back door. Her eyes widen and she gasps. Michael and you jump apart, blushing.

     "Oh-oh my goodness." Miss Pettigrew huffs, her hand on her chest, looking between the two of you. You look away and Michael clears his throat. "Why...why, I never-" She sputters, before turning back on her heel and leaving.

     Michael and you step close to each other. "Shall we resume?" He asks, smiling down at you. You laugh and then pull his head down to kiss him again.
[THE END] I hope you liked it!
