'michael, we can't. we just adopted ella and morgan already feels like we are giving more attention to the baby than to him. i know you have a job, and the money you make goes to us and the kids, but we are not getting a puppy.' michael and luke had been arguing about this one issue for weeks now, michael wanting a puppy so bad and luke constantly saying no.

'p-please lukey. i know - i know we are kinda tight on money, i'll work a bit longer if that's what it takes.' luke groaned, tired of this conversation.

'michael, i'm not talking about this anymore. you aren't ever home and i'm not taking care of a damn dog.' luke went to walk away but michael pulled him back, getting in his face with teary eyes.

'i sit here and try my hardest to take care of our children every day, luke! i appreciate you every day and all of your art and hobbies that bring in no money and i know i get annoying asking for the same things but -' luke cowered back a bit when michael got distracted and looked at the stairs, seeing their oldest son morgan rubbing his eyes.

'will you two be quiet, i'm trying to - dad are you crying?' morgan came down the stairs and for once luke looked up and saw tears in michael's eyes. his face softened. he didn't even know what he had said to make him that upset.

'daddy?' everyone's heads snapped back up to the stairs to see ella, who was clinging to the banister with her light green colored blanket in her hand. luke looked back at michael, who was shaking from tears. morgan had his arms around him, clearly talking to him trying to calm him down a bit. he frowned before turning his attention back to ella.

'c'mon lovebug, let's get you to bed.'

it took another ten minutes to get ella to lie down. when she finally had, luke made his way back downstairs where michael was on the couch talking with morgan. he seemed to be calmer now, his arm draped around his son loosely. luke coughed, making his presence known. michael didn't turn, but morgan looked at his dad across the room and then back at his dad next to him and got up, saying goodnight.

'mikey, i'm sorry.' michael didn't move once again, only speaking.

'luke, i shouldn't have said that about your art. you know i love what you do and you are so talented.' luke smiled and walked over, sitting next to his husband.

'but, you do know i work my very hardest to get you and the kids everything they want. and what you said really made me feel like shit, like everything i did wasn't good enough.' michael voice cracked and luke pouted, resting his head on michael's shoulder. he felt michael start trembling and looked up to see tears pooling in his eyes.

'i love you, luke. i'm sorry.' michael kissed luke's forehead.

'i love you too, mikey. i'm going to bed are you coming?' luke stood up, holding michael's hand to pull him up. michael nodded and luke pulled him up, well tried anyway, and michael stood up, following the love of his life to their bedroom.
