Andy POV
We all sat down and watched Netflix until it was time to go home because we had school tomorrow. Me and Mike hopped off the bed and went down the stairs, Brooklyn and Jack following behind us. We said goodbye to them, hugged them then left the house setting off on our 25 minute walk home. Trying for the second time today, I grabbed Mikey's hand to hold it and this time he accepted it and held me hand. He started brushing his thumb against my knuckles and that made me smile. But then it hit me that he rejected holding my hand earlier and stopped me from telling Brooklyn and Jack about our relationship and I just wanted to know why so I asked him
"Okay, so first of all, why didn't you hold hands with me earlier and why did you not want to tell Brooklyn and Jack about our relationship?"
"Okay, I'm sorry. I'm not ready to tell people yet. I'm not prepared for all the shit and backlash we are both going to get. We are both going to be hurt physically and mentally the minute everyone finds out, so for the benefit for both of us, let's just keep it to ourselves for the time being, okay? Please Andy" he replied, a small smile appearing on his face
"Okay but the minute you are ready we tell everyone and I mean everyone. Promise?" I asked him, waiting for him to answer
"I promise. I love you baby" he answered squeezing my hand
"Okay and I love you too babe" I replied getting on my top toes and giving him a peck on the cheek
We walked the rest of the way home holding hands and talking about anything and everything that came to our minds. Once we arrived home, we said hello to Mikey's mum then we went up to bed to have a well deserved sleep after our very busy day
