The Only Reason (Muke)

Chapter 11

Luke's POV

I was beyond relieved when Michael agreed to let me in, I want to make him happy, I know I can. If he can make me happy then why can't I make him happy?

I'm trying to leave my twisted past and depressing thoughts behind for him. I'm so sick of overthinking things, so I just went for it And I really don't regret it.

Currently we're in my room, after we came back I practically begged Calum silently not to push Michael by asking him about what was happening, and I was glad he didn't.

I caress Michael's cheek softly and watch him squirm in my arms, a smile slightly tugging on the corners of his mouth.

"Hey," I whisper, kissing his forehead gently.

He opens one eye and gives me a barely-there smile.

"Got to sleep," he slurs, eyes closing again and carefully snuggling himself in me while I wrap my long arms around his delicate body.

"You should sing me to sleep," he mumbles against my chest, sleep laced in his voice.

"Alright," I chuckle lightly and clear my throat.

"Eighty - six Charlie came over, he asked me for a favor, asked me a question.

Asked me to make an exception.

Eighty- six Charlie he came back, said he'd been thinking it over, said he's had a change of heart.

He thinks he's made a grave mistake.

But I, I'll never forget you.
I'll never forget you.
You make things so easy, I'll never forget you..

Eighty-six Charlie he came back, he came back.
Sat down at the table and for the last time.
Said he's finally made up his mind.
He wonders if it's not too late.
It's not too late because.

I'll never forget you.
I'll never forget you.
You make things so easy, I'll never forget you.. " I sing softly and soon hear Michael's soft snores once again.

I watch his face carefully, watching every single detail, taking all his beauty in and storing it deep inside my heart.

He will always have a special spot in my heart.

No matter how many times he pushes me away, no matter how many times he hurts me, he will always be stuck inside my mind; inside me.

I wonder if he feels the same. I hope so, he's everything I have, apart from Ashton and Calum of course.

I also wonder how Calum is doing without Ashton. Where's Ashton? I hope he comes back soon, we really do.

Soon my eyelids become too heavy to keep them open, and let them closing slowly as I stare at Michael's sleeping body.

~~***~~

A streak of sunlight peaks through the dark blue curtains making me awake, opening my eyes slowly. I reach out to run my fingers through Michael's white, blonde hair but instead my hand falls directly to the soft pillow beside me.

I immediately sit up and frantically search for a certain green eyed boy around the room.

As I was still looking, someone clears their throat, and I look up to see Michael.

But.. His hair.

"I wasn't going anywhere," Michael chuckles, walking over to the bed and sitting in front of me.
