Madi.
As I and the other four make our way back home, a feeling of guilt rushes over my body. I shiver then continue walking, letting out a few sighs here and there.
"What's wrong, Mads?" Calum asks using the nickname Alex had given me.
I shrug and look at the ground. "I don't want you to leave, that's all."
"No it's not."
Calum always has a way of finding things out. He also always has a way of knowing when something is wrong.
"I'm perfectly fine, Cal. I promise." I force a smile and look at him. His eyes are dropped and he seems concentrated on my facial expression.
"You know, I really am sorry for fucking up, right?"
"I know. I'm sorry, too."
Before he can continue the conversation further, we're home. Thank the Lord.
I run straight up to my room and close the door. I don't want to do anything but lay here anymore. I don't know why. Am I really that pathetic?
Just as I bundle myself up in covers on the bed, Michael walks in.
"Madi.." His sweet voice fill my ears, and sends my guilt somewhat away.
I bundle closer up in the covers. I try not to make much noise.
"Madi." The bed sinks in beside me. "Baby, I don't know what's wrong. But, can you please explain it? It's just you and I. It'll never leave. I promise." Michael's voice sounds tired and desperate. Concerned.
I sigh and speak.
"I feel guilty."
"Why's that?"
"Because, you guys just came back and Calum and I argued. I really fucked up between us. I want him to know I didn't mean the hurtful words and that I love him and I'm sorry. So sorry." I uncover my head and look at Michael looking at me.
His beautiful tired green eyes making my heart race. I don't know what he does to me, but I don't want it to stop.
"Madison, Calum cried last night because he hurt you. He thought he broke us up. He's the sorry one. Cal never cries. You have some control over him. I believe you're both equally sorry." Mikey smiles his cute small smile and lies beside me.
"He's truly sorry. Talk to him. Don't let us leave when you two have some things you need to work out."
"I'm pretty sure Calum hates me and only talks to me because he lives here." I roll over so that my back is facing Michael.
"That's not true. Madi, Cal loves you. Just, talk to him, please?" Michael sounds more tired with every word. Yet, he manages to run his fingers across my back and pull me closer to him.
I decide not to answer him, considering he and I are both tired. A little nap shouldn't hurt.

I wake up a little over an hour later. Michael is still sleeping ever so beautifully, cuddling up with a stuffed bear he had gotten me for my 15th birthday.
When he gave it to me, I couldn't/wouldn't stop smiling. He wrote a little note on it, too. It was his way of telling me he was leaving me soon. He was going to be famous. He was really leaving me..
Michael left a few weeks later. Of course, I went with them to the airport. I couldn't let him leave without a goodbye.
Every since that night, I've slept with the bear. Especially the nights he's gone and I need a friend.
Michael shifts around beside me before letting out a small snore.
I laugh.
"Are you laughing at me?"
"Not at all." I laugh again. "I'm laughing at your twin, who happens to be a lot cuter than you."
"Hey! Even if I did have a twin, I'd be the cuter one." He rolls over and pulls me by the waist closer to him.
"True. You would be the cuter one."
Michael smiles tiredly and closes his eyes again.
"How was your nap?"
"Not long enough," he groans and tucks his head in the bend of my neck.
"I'm sorry. Why don't you sleep, then?" I ask running fingers through his now dried, messy, styled lavender hair.
"I'd rather talk to you. I'll sleep forever when I die. I only get you while I'm alive."
That's the sweetest thing I've ever heard.
My response is a huge smile.
"See, I only get to see that while I'm alive."
"I love you."
"You're so beautiful, Madi. Blake is a damn idiot for hurting you. I'm glad you're mine. I'll show you how a real man treats his lady."
I kiss his lips slow and long.
One things true; I've got the best boyfriend there is.
