Hold me close

Chapter : 2

As I awoke she was tangled in my arms, her lips parted as she blew tiny little breaths. Her eyebrows were knitted together in confusion, I gently stroked her head.

"Mikey are you awake?" She said looking up at me, her brown eyes looking into mine.

"Of course I am Riley, I always get up at the but crack of dawn, would you like some breakfast?" I said pulling her in for a hug.

"Yeah I'm pretty hungry." She said pointing to her stomach.

RILEYS POV:

I woke up to see Mikey just staring at me, playing with my hair. I wish I could wake up like this every morning, just us alone, he offered I make breakfast now that's something I can't put down!

I sat up in the satin sheets, only to fall once more before deciding I had to go downstairs.

The smell of eggs, bacon, and sausage filled the home, he stood there his red hair sticking up everywhere, his bluish green eyes meeting mine, he stepped closer grabbing my hand pulling me to the table so I can eat.

He set down a plate of waffles and the bacon, and sausage, and some juice.

"Is this okay?" He asked pushing his hair back.

"You know it's all my favorite it's perfect Mikey." This really did mean a lot, I've went through a lot last night, and this makes it better. To know at least one person cares, he actually got up and made me breakfast, me of all people.

"Do you want to do something today? It's Sunday and we graduated last year so we don't have to worry about school." He said, I think he is nervous, why would he e nervous?

"Yeah I'd love to Mikey, where too?" I asked out of curiosity.

"I was thinking we could go to the movies and see that new hunger games together."

"Like a date?"

"Only if you want it to be, I know it's all so fast but if you don't want it to be a date then it won't I don't want to rush you." He said placing his hand on mine.

"It's cool either way just as long as I get to be with you." I said with a mouthful of waffles.

"Your such a dude!" He said throwing some bacon at me.

I got up and accidentally spilled my orange juice all over him, his black athletic shorts were drenched.

"I'm so sorry Mikey." I said as I grabbed paper towels off the counter to dab the juice I spilled.

"It's okay, accidents happen." He grabbed my hand and we just stared at each other, we began moving closer when I felt nervous and I moved away.

"So I'm gonna hop in the shower and then we can go." I said as I walked to his bathroom.

As the water beaded down my back I couldn't help but think, how we looked at each other, and I how I actually got nervous. He makes me feel things I didn't feel with James.

I thought I was with him because I loved him but I guess it was because we were close but, not like me and Mikey. Mikey and I are always together, he's always here for me, and when things at home go bad he always lets me come here and stay.

I have to admit I like him, but I don't know when I should tell him.

As I dried off I listened to music, Jersey by mayday parade played while I tried to figure out what I was gonna wear, I have tons of stuff here I just don't know what he would like, I decided on ripped black high waisted shorts, a white fish net shirt with a black tank underneath, gray cardigan, cross necklace and black vans.

I did simple make up, base, and mascara. I dried my hair and straightened it.

I walked down the stairs to see him, he looked amazing. He was wearing a black green day shirt, black skinny jeans with holes in the knees, a leather jacket, and black converse.

"You look amazing Riley." He said walking me out to the car, as we sat down we listened to music in the car he glanced at me a lot, he looks amazing and I feel underdressed.

"You really do look amazing, I can't keep my eyes off of you." He said reaching for my hand, intertwining our fingers together.

"Thank you, you look great Mikey." I said blushing.

SORRY IT TOOK SO DAMN LONG. 😭😭😭
