Our reality //m.g.c//

Twelve

"You can close your eyes to the things you don't want to see, but you can't close your heart to the things you don't want to feel."
~Johnny Depp

"Don't tell me this is your first time in London?"

"Well since this tour is the first time I'm in Europe, this is very much the first time I'm in London."

"Well then I don't care what I'm supposed to do today because I'm gonna show you around here."

"Not a great idea. Luke will be pissed."

Michael rolled his eyes and grabbed Ava's arm as he pulled her onto the street.

"You're having the best frozen yogurt with be right here and I'll show you my favorite places and I don't care what anyone says."

His eyes were serious but Ava still felt guilty. Ever since that day she didn't know what to feel. Sometimes, Michael would do thing like that where he would ignore everything just to spend some time with her but other times he flirted with Luke. It was on stage but still. He did it and both of them seemed to enjoy it.

"Let me just text Luke...-"

Boy pulled Ava's phone out of her hands and put it in his back pocket. Before the blonde could resent he shushed her and pulled her onto a double decker. They sat on the roof and Michael told her how much he loved living here when they lived here. Since Ava wasn't a fan of them, she had no idea about their history and all of that was completely new to her. At a certain point, rainbow pulled her down and into a cornered alley that led to a hidden cafe that sold the infamous frozen yogurt Michael wanted her to try so badly. Once they got the yogurts, the boy immediately started pulling her towards his favorite spot. They walked for a short time before taking some left turns and then headed up the stairs. Then suddenly, they were on the roof of this apartment house where the whole London was seen from.

"I've written some great songs up here."

"Tooting your own horn much?"

Ava sat down at the edge with legs dangling down towards the floor. Michael joined her after an extended eye roll. They sat there, eating the truly good frozen yogurts in silence. At least until Michael broke the silence.

"So...do you know what you feel yet?"

Two weeks had passed since the last time they talked about it and Ava got more confused with each passing day.

"I'm not sure I'll ever be sure about this. I'm not really used to having to figure out what I feel."

"I have an idea on how I could help you figure it out."

His eyes were burning a hole through Ava's head so she turned and faced him with raised eyebrows.

"Really? How?"

"Do you trust me?"

"Do you want the truth? Not really all that much."

"Trust me on this."

He moved closer and before Ava could react, his lips touched hers. She wanted to move, well at least her mind wanted her to move but it was like she was paralyzed in the moment and the only thing she was consciously aware of was the fact that this rainbow boy was kissing her. His lips were cold and sweet from the frozen yogurt but the feeling she got could only be described as sensational. It felt like a very nice drug was spreading through her system and instead of fighting it, she embraced it. She didn't even know she was kissing him back until he backed off, his green eyes shimmering in the light sunlight and his lips starched out into a dorky smile. Exactly like the one he did at the end of the new song video he sent her. She smiled back at him but her eyes couldn't keep the eyes contact as they kept falling down to his lips. He noticed that and kissed her again. This time the kiss was more passionate and intense. His hand was on her lower back and he was pulling her closer and surprisingly enough, she wanted to be just as close to him as he wanted her to be. After some intense minutes passed, they stopped kissing and Ava was sitting on Michael's lap. But instead of jumping off she buried her head into his neck and inhaled the soft smell of the cologne she was really fond of.

"I think we can safely say you like me."

The smirking was heard in Michael's voice and Ava rolled her green eyes so hard they both laughed.

"I guess we can. Now the question is...who do you like rainbow?"

Michael raised his eyebrows slightly.

"I think it's pretty obvious."

Ava bit her lower lip and looked at the boy.

"Well maybe right now but on stage I'm not so sure."

"That's called performance Ava but sounds like to me someone's jealous?"

"I'm not...okay maybe a little but I don't think it's all for show."

Michael placed a light, reassuring kiss on Ava's lips.

"It is."

The girl made her way down from his lap and sat beside him

"Well then I'm pretty sure Luke doesn't know that."

"I'm sure he does."

"He likes you and it's pretty obvious."

"Well I like you."

"If you want to avoid more arguments you should tell him that before it's too late."

"And how do you suggest I do that? You saw how he reacted when he heard I showed you the song before him. Now do you think he'll react when I tell him like you?"

"Badly from all the experience I've got with him but he still should hear it from you."

Michael stayed silent and just watched the town unfold itself in front of him. He really did love the view from up there

"Never pretend to a love which you do not actually feel, for love is not ours to command."

Michael rose his eyes and Ava stood up and walked down the stairs. She knew he would chase her down and they'd go back to the arena the show was going to be held at, but she also knew they wouldn't talk about what happened. It was a moment and it was beautiful and yet left them both more confused then before. And if there was one thing the blonde girl hated, it was being confused. Especially about feelings. She hated feelings.
