Michael Unexpected Romances

Secrecy

Jonathan's pov
Michael was shaking he was so scared.I wanted to punch Luther's dim-witted head in but I knew that would cause more trouble for Michael.

'What if he does something b-bad to u-u-us,'Michael stutters.
'I won't let him,if he even so much as looks at you,it will be the end for him',I say strongly,most of my confidence coming back in that instant.
I look at my watch!Oh god,oh god,I'm late for dinner.'I-I have to go Michael,just stay inside',I declare.
'Oh yes,it's very easy to just stay inside when your a world famous performer,who has to preform almost everynight',Michael snaps.

'I guess so',I sigh.'Just try okay,it's the only thing keeping you fully safe',I soothe,cupping my left hand around his soft cheek.
He let out a small smile.'Okay I'll stay in the house',He sighs.'Even though I have no idea how to keep up the act',Michael cries.

I hold him close to me. My strong hands gripping hard onto his small waist.He shivers from the sudden contact.'It'll be okay Mic-',A shout cuts Michael off.

'WHO ARE YOU AND WHY ARE YOU HOLDING ONTO MY SON LIKE HE'S YOUR BITCH',Joseph sneers.
I quickly let go off Michael,just now realizing how exposed we are!
'I'm sorry sir,Michael was a bit shaken up about something,I was just consoling him',I smile.
Joseph grimances as he begins walking towards me but quickly making a u turn bringing him face to face with Michael.

'Get in the house,I told you if you weren't going out with your mum your had to practice dancing with your brothers', Joseph spits.
'Oh I see,you said that so you could hang around with your little boyfriend,didn't you',Joseph teases.

'No,Joseph he's not my boyfriend',Michael says quietly,eyes glued to the floor.I hate it when he does that,I want everyone to see his pretty face.
Michael told me about Joseph's ways of discipline. It was also obvious from his anger and mocking tone that he was homophobic.

'Yes sir,Michael is right,I swear were not together',I laugh,trying to ease the tention that had taken over the courtyard.
Joseph didn't look convinced but he didn't pry further,I hear Michael let out a sigh of relief only loud enough for me to hear.
'Come along Michael,you've done enough messing around with your...little friend here',Joseph snaps.
'Yes Joseph,I'm coming',Michael sighs,quickly giving me a kiss on the cheek when Joseph's back was turned.

'Stay safe at home or put on a good disguise till I figure something out and please be calm about all this',I whisper.Michael nods but I could tell he was everything but calm.
I watched him walk away his hips swaying left and right every couple steps.God,he was just so perfect.
I quickly came back to reality realising the problem me and Michael both share.

Oh god I'm so late for dinner!I bolt out of the courtyard and down the road careful to keep my distance from everyone incase Luther was planning a sneak attack.

I quickly make my way back home.Everything looked the same but it felt so different to me.
It wasn't the home I wanted,well not anymore.

'Jonatham where have you been,you've been gone all day',Jack questions.
'I guess I was out longer than I thought',I smile innocently, even though I'm everything but innocent.
Jack shrugs it off but the others just won't back down.
'You've never done that before though',Willis coos from the other side of the room.
'Yeah were you going to see a honey', Damien teases.
'Oooh maybe he was going to see that little worker guy of his',Tim smirks.

'Oooh snap',Jack laughs.

'You all need to stay out of my business,you guys go out aswell,I don't pry about what you did',I groan.
'Yes but you never go out for that long,never,the only trips you ever take are crossing the road to the corner shop to buy some weed',Damien says quietly but I heard every word.

'HEY,I'M NOT LIKE THAT ANYMORE I'VE NOT TAKEN DRUGS SINCE I WAS FIFTEEN YEARS OF AGE',I scream.
That was enough to shut everyone up.

Michael's pov

'So Michael where you been all day,I know that park time job ended two hours ago', Katherine smiles curiously.
'Oh you know me mother,always got my head in the clouds',I laugh.
She lets it go and asks me to set the table for dinner.

'I swear Michael ever since you got that park time job you've been so perky',Marlon laughs.
'Yeah it's like someone's just lit up your whole world',Jermaine smiles.
'It's a good thing though don't worry Michael,were happy that you seem happier,but why what's caused this sudden change',Latoya perks up.

'OMG,OMG,OOOMMMMMGGGG',Janet screams.
'What Janet',I say with my hands covering my ears.
MICHAEL'S FINALLY GOT A GIRL, THAT'S WHY HE'S SO HAPPY',Janet beams.

Suddenly the whole atmosphere around me changes.Questions come flying at me so fast I feel the need to start flying my hand about so I can swat them away.
'Chidren,children calm down,just give him a break yeah he's had a long day',Katherine soothes.

'Yes mother',They say in unison, but it was obvious they were itching to know more.

'Could you at least tell is her name',Latoya pleads.

'Or what she looks like',Jermaine smirks.

'NO,I don't have have a girlfriend,I think I...I think I... I...I need a moment',I cry running out of the room.

It's torture keeping this secret.But you can obviously tell by the way they just assume I'm dating a girl.They aren't open-minded one bit.Not even think about me dating a boy!They would never understand.
