My alarm sounded through my room, resulting in a long groan coming from my mouth. My phone's text tone forced me to wake up. "Picking you up for breakfast. Be there in like 5 minutes lol" Mikey's text read. I texted back a quick "okay (:" and rushed to get ready.

I slid on some jeans and a tank top along with a flannel and my white van slip ons. I heard Mike's jeep pull up so I quickly put my hair into a bun and snatching my phone and keys off the counter.

I locked my door behind me and walked to Mike's cars. He unlocked the doors and I slid in. He leaned over and pecked my cheek along with a "Hey babymama" I giggled and waved at him.

"What's for breakfast?" I asked, taking a Snapchat of us together and posting it. "I want waffles! Were going to Waffle House!" He said and I nodded, grinning. We went through the drive thru and Mikey ordered practically the entire menu and I ordered a waffle and hash browns. We got our food and Mike drove to our school. We parked and started eating our food in the parking lot.

"So.. I guess what I'm trying to say is..... Danny Devito as 'The Penguin' in Batman is the real definition of artwork." Mikey stated, stuffing his last piece of waffle into his mouth. I giggled hysterically and shoved Mikey gently. "Who even thinks about this stuff?" I asked as Mikey opened his car door and gathered our trash. I slid out of his truck and met him in front of his Jeep.

"I always think about important stuff like that, just dont ever really have friends I can tell it to." He shrugged, tossing our trash in a nearby trash can as I walked with him by his side. He slung his arm over my shoulder as we approached the school. The groups of kids stared at us and some whispered.

"Mikey, theyre talking about me." I said to him as he opened the door to the school for me. "Nah babygirl, they're talking about us!" He yelled, making everyone in the hallway look at us. My cheeks turned crimson as Mike bursted into laughter. The other guy in Mike's band, the only one I dont know, Calum, approached Mikey. "Are you coming to practice today Michael? If you bail on us again, we wont be able to play any of our upcoming gigs." He stated seriously. "Ill be there today, dont get your panties in a twist. Im bringing my groupie with me, though. So tell the boyfriends if they gotta problem with that, they can come talk to me." Mike said with confidence filling his voice. Calum walked away, mumbling a "Whatever."

"Im not your groupie, Mikey!" I giggled again. I kinda dig the name though. He ignored me and slung his arm over my shoulder again, walking me to my first period. "You're gonna be a heartbreaker one day, M." I said, looking up at him. Mikey had become like family to me recently. I found myself wanting to always be with him because its so much better than being alone. I always enjoyed Mikey's company.

I made a mental note of Mike's confidence. It was so vibrant I swore I could feel it radiating off of him, but then when we were alone, I saw him so tender and soft. I shrugged and sighed heavily too myself at the complexity of Michael Clifford. He hugged me tightly, shoving me out of my thoughts. I hugged him back and he mumbled a "love you" as he pulled away. Stalking his long legs down the hallway.

I opened the door to my class to me greeted my hard stares and giggles. I looked around suspiciously and suddenly noticed a photo on someone's phone. A picture of me... naked.
