(A/N)AU where an in love with Jeremy Michael confronts Jeremy during the Squipcident, at the party to the point Jeremy can't hide feelings anymore. This thing has a lotta angst be warned.

"You're disgusting Jeremy. He is a guy. He is also a loser and a link to what you used to be. Your goal is Christine, you can't change that after all this progress." The Squip said quietly but harshly, like an ice cold wind prickling at your skin in the middle of winter. Jeremy sighed. He didn't know what to make of that party from the prior night, things went so downhill so fast, especially after what Chloe did and now Brooke hates him.

"Jeremy please listen to me for five seconds." Michael pleaded, grabbing Jeremy's sleeve and not letting go.

"Michael I gotta go." Jeremy sounded dead, which would be appropriate for a Halloween party, but not this specific situation(more like Squipuation).

Jeremy's Squip was off, and he didn't feel like forcing his slightly tipsy body to go back outside and face Jake Dillinger's wrath. He turned around to Michael who gently let go of his sleeve, allowing the taller male to slouch down in front of the door.

"That Squip isn't good for you Jeremy... I hope you realize how unhealthy it is." Michael said and Jeremy didn't look at Michael, he couldn't force himself to.

"It's off right now."

"Well good, then you can listen better. You know...I never cared how cool you were and honestly I don't think Christine did either. I remember you told me how thrilled she was that you were in play rehearsal. You two actually got along from my understanding, so why?"

"Why what?"

"Why did you change for her? Why did you go and ruin yourself for one girl... when you already had somebody who loved you..." Michael said quietly and Jeremy pondered it for a second. Nobody loved him at the moment, Chloe and Brooke both hated him, Christine had rejected him, Jenna didn't care, Jake and Rich had their own issues. Who would love Jeremy Heere?

"That's a lie Michael..."

"No it's not Jeremy...I would know more than anybody." Michael protested against Jeremy's pessimistic outlook on things. Michael got close to Jeremy and grabbed his hands.

"How do you know!?" Jeremy asked rather loudly, anger evident by his scrunched facial expression.

...there was a silence before Michael leaned in and kissed the brunette. Jeremy turned red, and Michael started crying. The two stared at each other when Michael released and didn't say anything.

Minutes passed...

Before they could say anything, they smelled smoke. A fire had started, but who would start a fire at this party? Jeremy didn't care. As if on instinct Jeremy grabbed Michael's hand and unlocked the door, and ceilings were already caving in. That's the moment it reactivated but Jeremy ignored its pleas to abandon Michael. Michael didn't know what to say about all this, it was happening so fast. He heard the ceiling crack and pushed Jeremy away quickly.

"Michael!!" Jeremy yelled as he seen Michael be slightly crushed by burning wood. He grabbed his phone and quickly dialed 911.

"This is 911 what's your emergency?"

"I-I was at a party and somebody s-started a fire, and the ceiling just crashes in on my f-friend." Jeremy stuttered out, quickly giving the information about where he was.

Jeremy was now outside the house, waiting for the firemen to bring Michael out to one of the three ambulances there. Turns out he wasn't the only one injured. Rich was burned, Jake broke his legs, and most the girls were slightly scarred or cut. Jeremy heard the Squip yell at him about how he just screwed up everything. That's when he seen Michael being brought out. There was blood, bruises, and most his body was burned up. Jeremy felt so guilty at this point, his best friend, no, his only friend just revealed his love for him and practically died trying to save him.
