luke groaned as he angrily shook the doorknob.
he pulled out his phone, and dialed michael's number.
after several failed attempts at a call, he sat on the porch, and crossed his arms.
it was below freezing, and luke was locked out. michael said he wasn't leaving the house, so luke didn't take a house key.
luke pulled out his phone when he felt it buzz.
michael: what do you need
luke: i'm locked out
michael: lol
luke: please come home. i'm freezing.
michael: i'm grocery shopping
luke: i know i made you mad this morning, and i'm sorry but please come home. i'm gonna get sick
michael: luke of course i'm coming home
luke had to put his phone away and slip his hands in his pockets because he could barely feel them.
his skinny frame didn't keep him very warm at all.
he would sit in his car, but it's been broken down for a week and won't do him any good. he had to take a cab to the post office.
michael sighed as he pulled into the driveway, seeing luke curled up to his knees.
he quickly shut off the car, and hurried to the door.
"how long have you been out here?" michael asked.
"20 minutes." luke said quietly.
michael let luke in the house first, and led him to their bedroom.
"poor baby." michael said, and wrapped a blanket around luke.
"i'm so cold." luke whispered.
michael helped him lay down, and pulled the comforter over them. he held luke close, a hand on the back of his neck.
"i picked up some nyquil before i left the store. you might get a cold," michael said softly, running a hand through luke's hair.
his nose was red, his eyes were dry, and he was still shivering.
luke leaned forward, hiding his face in michael's neck.
"luke, are you okay?" michael asked, and the younger boy shook his head, trying to get closer.
"hey, i'm gonna go fix a bath for you. baby, you're still freezing." michael said and stood up, much to luke's dismay.
"mikey!" luke whined.
"luke, just hold on, okay?" michael said, and ran a bath, a little warmer than luke usually likes.
michael walked back into the room and pulled luke over to the edge of the bed.
he started pulling luke's sweater up, causing the blond to shake his head.
"luke, come on. it'll only be cold for a second." he said, and pulled luke's clothes off of his body until he was completely naked.
he picked luke up, carrying him bridal style before gently setting him in the large bathtub.
luke laid his head on the side of the tub, resting it on a towel.
"better?" michael asked.
luke nodded, and closed his eyes.
michael ran a hand through luke's hair, and kissed his forehead.
"i'm sorry, baby." michael said softly.
"it's not your fault."
michael kissed luke's head again, and frowned a little. he hates seeing luke like this.
"love you, mikey." luke whispered.
"love you, lukey."
