"Luke can't you see I'm trying?" Michael asked running his fingers through his hair. He had a hard day at work and didn't want to come home to the yelling. "Well clearly not hard enough" Luke sighed irritated just wanting to be left alone.
"Im trying to get my boss to give me next months pay early but its gonna take some time Luke, I-I know how much you want this new house and I'm doing everything in my power to get you it." Michael explained softly walking up to the blonde. "Don't touch me right now, not tonight Michael."
"I just wanna hug you-" michael began before the blonde glared at him. "and i said not tonight, Michael, haven't you done enough to ruin my mood." He snapped before walking away from Michael up to their shared room.
"I promise ill have by Friday, Latest. Can you please hug me now I've had a long day..." luke laughed, the kind of fake laugh someone does when they're mad.
"You've had a long day? Did you know i had to convince them to not sale the house before we get it and how i had to tidy up the whole house, not to mention that I even made dinner" He squinted his eyes placing his hands on his hips, not knowing that Michael was far behind work and his boss was already on the verge of firing him, not to mention michael got 3 coffees spilled on him today because his desk area was so small.
Luke walked into their bathroom to take a shower seeing that michael took one that morning. Michael quickly changed wanting to get out of his coffee stained clothes and into his comfy t-shirts and boxers.
He laid on their bed facing their grey wall not knowing what to do anymore. Michael was never one to cry, he was always the one that held Luke when he was crying or consoled him. But with all the stress thats been put on him by his boss, costumers, luke, and their real estate agent, he allowed himself to let a few tears slip.
Once Luke finally got dressed and walking into their bedroom and heard sniffling he furrowed his eyebrows. He's dated michael since they were 16 and he never once saw the man cry.
"Michael?" Luke asked softly sitting on the bed tapping his back. Michael hummed in response quickly wiping his eyes. "Why are you crying?" Luke asked again playing with his over sized shirt. "Im not" The blonde sighed giving Michael a glare even though he couldn't see it. "Michael." Luke warned.
He sighed before sitting and turning around showing Luke his somewhat red puffy eyes. "I-it's just stress from a lot of things with work and our agent and the house and the money. Its a-a lot and i guess it doesn't help that after a bad day i come home and i know you don't try to but you put even more stress on me and all i wanna do is shower and cuddle with you when you don't even allow me to even hug you, nor seeing you naked." Michael was caught off gaurd when Luke wrapped his arms around Michael's neck squeezing it.
Michael pulled away fresh tears rolling down his eyes. "Can't you see that I'm trying Luke? Im trying so hard to give you the fucking world and I don't even get to hold you in bed anymore. Can't you just see that I'm trying." He whispered cupping Lukes cheek with his hand.
"Im sorry Michael, I've been so ungrateful and so selfish, I never thought about how you felt about this. I'm such a terrible husband, im sorry im sorry im sorry, you don't have to get the house ill make do with this one a-and ill cuddle you every morning and I'll continue to cuddle you as soon as you come home from work, we can shower together and then you can hold me in bed while we fall asleep to the simpsons just like we used to. I love you so much and im so grateful to have you in my life." Luke whispered before pulling Michael into a kiss.
"How about you take tomorrow off-" "i cant" michael cut him off sadly. "If i miss anymore days my ass is literally grass." Luke frowned before kissing Michael again. "Let's at least go to bed then and then tomorrow will be a whole new better day." Luke recommended. Michael smiled lazily before nodding his head, ill love that Lu."
Luke and Michael both laid down on their mattress. Michaels arms wrapped around Lukes waist while Luke hid his face in Michaels chest.
This is exactly what Michael needed after a long day of trying.

Two things! (Also im editing this later because i always write when im half asleep for some reason lmao)
1.) i thought this was a good idea because i saw one shots where top!michael doesn't appreciate Luke but ive never read one where bottom!Luke doesn't appreciate Top!Michael so i felt really originallll.
2.) im stuck on writing done part two so it might be a week or a half until i can publish it but i know that since im taking my time writing it it will turn out at least decent lol :)
