Michael Part II

Marriage.

May 1st.

"Nervous?" Paloma asked Michael as he adjusted his bow tie for the 20th time.

Michael nodded his head and then plopped down in a chair that sat in the dressing room. Ezra, Fitz, Mikey, and a couple of Mika's friends were already ready and standing at the door waiting for Michael.

"Dad are you ready?" Mikey asked from the doorway.

Michael shook his head and lowered it.

"What's wrong?" Fitz asked asked as they all now surrounded him.

"He's making a mistake," Michael answered.

"Michael?" Mika asked from the doorway causing everyone's heads to snap in his direction.

"Let's give them a few minutes," Paloma suggested as she guided the guys out of the room

Mika knelt next to Michael.

"What's wrong?" Mika asked.

"Mika, I don't want to rui-"

"Stop! You stop that Michael. I love you. I wouldn't be here right now if I didn't. And you want to know how much I know you? I know you enough to know that you were in here freaking out.

And I'm not going to lie, I'm freaking out. This is a big step, but I Know it's the right step. We're meant to be here. Right now. I want this Michael. I want you. Only you. So, please will you marry me?" Mika asked.

Michael nodded and turned his head to kiss Mika, but Mika wouldn't kiss him.

"Nope! We kiss at the alter love," Mika said before darting out of the room.

Michael smiled and stood up. He adjusted his bow tie once more before heading to the door. The boys all stood there waiting with smiles.

Michael now stood at the alter. Hundreds of people were seated before him. He knew 20 of them. His hands started to shake as music began to play.

One by one the boys filed down the aisle. Each had a lady by their side: Mika's sisters and two other friends. The boys each gave Michael a reassuring pat on the back as they walked behind him.

Then he saw him. Everyone else in the room disappeared. Michaels heart seemed to almost stop as he stared into Mika's eyes. His mother by his side as they walked down the aisle.

Mika never broke eye contact with Michael. Michael didn't even blink. And when he finally stood in front of him, hand in hand, he knew that neither one of them were making a mistake. He knew that everything was going to be alright.

Michael went to go kiss Mika.

"Not so faster mister. We still have a few things to go through," the minister said to Michael with a chuckle causing everyone to laugh.

Michael nodded and they continued the ceremony. They each said their vows. And then it was finally time. Michael smiled at Mika.

They kissed. And kissed. Mika ran his hands through Michael's hair and held onto him, cherishing the moment. Michael rested his forehead against Mika's as they parted from their kiss.

"I love you," Mika said proudly.

"I love you Mr. Scott Penniman," Michael smiled.

Most of the reception happened fast and was a blur. Mika and Michael had a little too much to drink. But they knew they wouldn't forget a single thing.

They ended up in their hotel room at 3AM in London. Michael laid down face first on the bed. Mika stumbled through the room to get to him.

"Love," Mika said as he tapped Michael's face. "Are you sleeping?"

Michael rolled over to his back and smiled at Mika.

"You should take advantage of me," Michael suggested with a wink.

"Oh yea?" Mika responded as he took off Michael's shoes.

Michael started to unbutton his shirt and Mika did the same. Before they knew it they were naked under the covers. Michael laid on top of Mika staring into his eyes.

They kissed...and kissed. Michael moved himself in between Mika's legs. Mika was begging for Michael. He started to get impatient and started to lube Michael up.

"I love you," Michael giggled.

"I love you, but you need to be inside me like now!"

Michael laughed at his husband and did as he was told. Michael slowly slid into Mika. Mika let his head fall back as he let out a moan. He placed his hands behind Michael's head and pulled it closer to him.

Michael shoved his tongue into Mika's open mouth and kissed him like he's never kissed him before. Mika enjoyed every second of it as he sucked on Michael's tongue. Michael started to quicken his pace as he was already about to finish.

"Love don't stop!" Mika shouted as he jerked on himself harder as Michael quickened his pace even more.

Michael collapsed on top of Mika as they both finished. They both struggled to catch their breathe. Michael was having a harder time. Mika pushed him back and leaned over him with a worried face.

"I'm...fine..." Michael tried to reassure him as he breathed heavily.

Mika continued to stare at him with his worried eyes. Before Michael could attempt to reassure Mika that he was fine Michael blacked out. When he awoke he was in a hospital bed.

"Wha-Mika," Michael said as he regained consciousness.

"Love!" Mika yelled as he rushed over to Michael's side.

Michael stared at Mika's tear stained face. He pulled Mika into him to comfort him. Mika immediately broke down.

"You had me worried!" Mika cried into Michael's chest.

"I'm fine," Michael said.

The next morning Mika tried to convince Michael that they could stay home for a few days before heading on their honeymoon, but Michael insisted they go. Michael had to practically drag Mika to the airport. When they arrived at their beach house Michael went right to bed, which only worried Mika even more.

Mika sat on the sand while Michael slept. He cried to himself. He worried about Michael's health more than Michael did himself.

Michael had gotten so strong since his last round of chemo. His hair was now fully grown and he was in the best shape of his life. But Mika still feared. Feared the cancer would come back.

When they received the news that he was cancer free they cried. They cried knowing that they now had a chance of living a life together. A full life together.

"Mika?" Michael asked as he sat next to his crying husband. "What's wrong?"

Mika wiped his eyes, "I'm worried about you. And you just don't care! We should've stayed home Michael. What if you get sick?! The hospital is miles away and not to mention it sucks!"

"Mika, I'm fine. I promise. I was just tired from the flight. I promise."

Mika nodded and rested his head on Michael's shoulder. Together they watched the sunset.
