A/N Okay so a few days ago I don't know why but we got a giant flood of requests so we decided to start combining prompts if they were for the same ship 

"It's okay to cry..."

"Look at me—just breathe, okay?"

"Talk to me."

"You don't have to stay."

"Do you want me to leave?"

"I just need to be alone right now."

"I adore you."

Warnings: Angst (resolved in the end), Cursing/Swearing.

It was a hard day for Michael. He could tell it would be in the beginning when he woke up late. He rushed upstairs to hurry up and leave but his mom caught him before he could leave and proceeded to yell at him for being so careless. The fight with his mom caused him to be later so he sped to school in his PT cruiser which caught the attention of a passing cop who happily pulled him over and ticketed him. Great. He thought. This will just give mom more reasons to yell at me. So after all that mess, Michael was hoping that he would be in the clear for the rest of the day. He was wrong, he was very very wrong. He got to school 15 minutes after the bell had rung so he ran to his homeroom class where was sent to the office to get a late pass in the office he got late pass and a detention for being late. This all happened before the bell for his first class even started.

Michael sighed and walked to his first period class.

"Yo Michael! Wait up!" He could hear his best friend/ boyfriend Jeremy yell. He slowed down until Jeremy reached him. "Hey what's up! I didn't see you before school, are you okay?"

Michael just shook his head "Nah, not really but it's whatever" he sped off to his chemistry class ignoring Jeremy yelling at him to slow down and wait for him. He sat down in chemistry with a huff and tried his best to focus even though it was hard considering he never really understood what was going on in chemistry. After sitting through an hour of chemistry he moved on to his least favorite class, PE. He changed quickly in the locker rooms and went to run laps around the football field. He pretty much walked all his laps because he really wasn't in the mood but ended up getting yelled at by the coach and being told he wasn't getting credit for that day because he wasn't 'participating'. All in all, it was a shitty class. After nearly crying during PE and changing quickly back into his normal clothes it was finally time for lunch. He sat down in the cafeteria waiting for Jeremy. Suddenly out of nowhere someone tripped and spilled their lunch all over him. That was it, that was the last straw. He barely had time to pass Jeremy and run into a janitor's closet before he broke down into sobs.

"Michael are you in here" Jeremy entered the closet to see Michael sitting on the floor in the dark completely broken, sobbing and hyperventilating a little bit. He immediately sat down and wrapped his arms around Michael.

"I'm sorry," Michael tried to say through sobs

"It's okay to cry..." Jeremy whispered into his boyfriend's ear. Michael held onto Jeremy and sobbed into the smaller boy's chest. "Look at me—just breathe, okay?" Jeremy said softly looking at Michael who relaxed. "Talk to me."

"Shitty ass day with a shitty ass start in a shitty ass school," Michael stated wiping his tears away. "You don't have to stay," Michael stated.

"Do you want me to leave?" Jeremy asked

"I just need to be alone right now," Michael responded standing up and walking out of the janitors closet. He decided that with all the horrible stuff that already happened that day he wasn't going to risk his day getting any worse by staying in the hell hole which other teenagers called high school so he decided to leave. He speed walked out of the school and into his car as fast and sneakily as he could and sped out of the school parking lot with ease, thank god his parents worked. He parked in his driveway and stepped out of the car. He slowly made his way to the door tiredly fumbling with his keys and let himself in. He trudged downstairs to his room in the basement and collapsed onto his bed. "Fuck today" he mumbled and closed his eyes. He opened them for only a moment to take off his glasses and readjust himself so that he was under the covers. Tears started to come out of his eyes without him noticing. "Fuck today," he repeated finally closing his eyes and falling asleep.

Michael woke up about three hours later to the sound of the front door shutting. He rolled his eyes assuming that one of his parents came home from work early. He rolled over and closed his eyes trying to resume his nap when he heard his door close and footsteps walking down the stairs of the basement. "What do you want he groaned,"

"Well I'm glad to see that you're awake," he heard a voice that definitely didn't belong to one of his parents say.

He turned around to see Jeremy who was holding two slushies and a bag from seven eleven "What are you doing here?" he asked.

"I knew you had a rough day" Jeremy replied, "So I bought you a slushie and some of your favorite snacks."

Michael sat up and tok the drink taking a long sip. "Thanks. Jer but you didn't have to do that," he said setting the drink down on his bedside table.

Jeremy set the rest of the stuff down on the bedside table along with Michael's slushie. "I know I didn't but I wanted to, you would have done the same for me." he replied, "Now move over and let me cuddle you."

Michael gladly moved over and opened the covers so Jeremy could climb in. Jeremy took off his shoes and crawled into bed with Michael, and there they sat facing each other and holding each other tightly. After around twenty minutes they both started to fall asleep a little bit.

Michael woke up after 20 or so minutes to Jeremy's voice. "Michael?" Jeremy mumbled

"Yeah?" He whispered back. 

"I adore you." and in that moment Michael knew that no matter how horrible a day this might have been that in that moment he was the most content he had ever been. There he was loved in the arms of his boyfriend, there he was safe.
