Ian's trips over his foot like the dumbass he is. "Hey Mic-oh shit!" He yelps and smacks straight on the porch. He closes his eyes because he's embarrassed. He quickly opens them when he hears a voice, which is definitely not Mickeys. "Oh my goodness, honey, are you okay?" A women asks. Ian looks up to the women and realized who she is.
He's never met her, but Mickey, he would describe her so well, nobody could miss it. She's small, like Mickey. Her black long hair dangles around her shoulder, she's skinny, not dangerously but perfectly thin. The hoodie she's wearing says MIT. Her smile is exactly the same smile Mickey gives him, hell even Mandy has the same smile.
Ian gives a shy smile and stands up. "Mrs.Milcovivh, what are you doing here?" He asks while shaking her hand. She smiles and shakes his hand. "Oh please, it's Laura, I just got back from a training and I wanted to see if Mikahlio wanted to grab some lunch." She says with a smile. "Uhh." Ian says while scratching his neck, "Mickey doesn't live here anymore, I think he's back at your house." Ian says nervously. She scrunches her eyebrows in confusion. Ian gets nervous, she lets go of that expression and it turns almost to, anger. "Fucking asshole." She says staring directly at Ian. "Wh-what?" Ian says a little hurt. He understands though, it's not like he doesn't deserve it. She snaps out of her stare and smiles. "No not you hon, his father." She says and runs her fingers through the hair. "I asked him how everything was at home and he doesn't tell me my own son is probably heartbroken at home." She says while shaking her head. Ian agreed while nodding his head, heartbroken is sure a word to describe their situation. "I'm sorry Ian, that's wasn't suppose to come out mean." She says and gives a small smile. Ian hears his own name come out of her mouth. "Wait, you know who I am?" He asks. She makes a confused face and laughs. "Of course I do, why wouldn't I?" She laughs out. "It's just that, this is the first time we are actually meeting." Ian's says. Laura gives a small smile, "Mikahlio would talk about you to me, you know, when he would visit." She say. Ian heart hurts, Laura shouldn't be this nice to him. "What happened, if you don't mind me asking." She asks and Ian steps fully outside and closed the door.
"You know I really don't know." Ian says and sits down on the porch steps. Laura sits down by him. "Did he do something?" She asks and Ian faces her. Ian clears his throat before he speaks. "I guess, we both did something." Ian says and stares at his hands. Laura lets a deep breath. "You know ever since he was little, he had a hard time confronting his feelings." Laura speaks. "He never really showed any emotions to anyone, I guess you can say he was like his father was." She laughs, "Stubbornness runs in the family." She says and Ian laughs. "That was until you, you Ian." She says and gives him a smile. "I remember that day he stepped up to his father and told he loved you, he was happy." She says and looks towards the street. "He would come to visit and tell me everything, and I mean everything about you two." Ian smiles, he can definitely imagine Mickey and his mom sitting there talking. "His father, he wasn't always nice, he wasn't always gentle, and I'm sure Mickey has seen some things his father has done to me and  to the people he's loved." She says and looks down. "But my son, my son, he would never hurt anyone he loved." She says and turns to Ian. "I'm sure you would never hurt someone you love right?" She asks. Ian looks and her and shakes his head. She smiles and holds his hand. Ian's quiet and she smiles at that. "Ian." She calls and he looks, tears in his eyes but he's trying his hardest not to cry in front of her. She searches his face and smiles. "When two people love each other very much , they need time apart, so when they come back, their love is even stronger." She says and smiles. Ian takes a deep breath and smiles. His eyes tearing up. He looks at her and lets out a shuddered breath. Laura stands up and kisses the top of Ian's head. "Fix this, makes things right with my son." She says and walks off.
Ian watches her walk off and into her car. She drives away and Ian lets out the tears. He's covers his eyes and rocks himself back and forth. He needs to fix this. What was he thinking? Mickey was it for him, there was no one else, he didn't want anyone else. Ian finally took a deep breath and stood up. He stretched his arms and walked back inside. He was going to make things right, he was getting his man back.
