One Shots

Late Night Cuddles (Perrentes)

Ooh look at that, two updates in one day...

Mike's POV:

The sound of thunder at three in the morning is not exactly my ideal way to wake up. I have never been able to sleep during storms because it is always too fucking loud, and the stupid bus only amplifies the damn sounds. I envy Vic and Jaime, they can sleep through anything, I can hear the two of the still snoring along with the rest of the crew.

Damn I need to piss, I thought to myself, crawling out of my warm bunk and heading towards the small bathroom. I stopped in my tracks when I heard the faint sounds of crying coming from the back of the bus. Quickly I spun on my heels and went to investigate.

Slowly, I opened the door taking a look inside, the light was off but even in the dark I could recognise him. Huddled up on the edge of the coach was Tony, sobbing and shacking.

"Hey, what's wrong?" I questioned, sitting next to Tony. Silence. The only sound in the room coming from his hysterical crying. I decided to talk instead, "Turtle, please tell me what's wrong, I can't help if I don't know."

"The st-torm." He choked out.

I never knew he was scared of storms. Quick think of something to cheer him up, I know. "Hey, stay right here, I will be back in a second. Everything is okay, I promise."

Quickly, I shot up from my spot and headed back to my bunk grabbing my blanket and pillows. Next, I grabbed my laptop from the draw under my bunk. Quickly moving to the small kitchen area to grab the candy that Vic hides on top of the cabinets. Shit, I'm gonna piss myself. Dropping all the stuff outside the bathroom, I ran into relieve myself before picking everything up and heading to the back room.

Tony hadn't moved. He was still shaking in the same position, in the same space.

I didn't say anything when I walked in, I just shut the door behind me and began setting everything up. The laptop was on the coffee table in front of the coach, the candy on either side. I put the blanket and pillows on one end of the coach, creating a small bed and started playing Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles on my laptop, before moving next to Tony and reaching down to pick him up bridal style. He continued crying as I moved him to the small bed I made, laying down with Tony next to me.

We stayed huddled up in silence for a minute, as he continued crying into my shoulder and I held him as close as I possibly could.

"Tony? Are you okay?" I ask as I pull him away slightly to look at his face. His eye's are red and his cheeks are stained with tears.

"Th-thank you." He replied quietly.

"Hey it's what best buds do," I said turning my attention to the small laptop, "is that loud enough or should I turn it up more? I can't really hear the storm anymore, can you?"

Tony shakes his head against my chest before rolling over so his back is to my chest and he can watch the screen. I can't help but feel like this is how it should be, me and Tony laying together, cuddling, watching Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, it just feels right.

"Hey, Tone?" He mumbles a 'mm' in response. "Are you feeling a bit better now?" I asked cautiously, hoping he wouldn't get upset again.

"Yeah, I'm okay, it's just the storm, it scares me. I dunno, it's stupid, I'm a grown man, I shouldn't be getting freaked out by stuff like this." He whispers, keeping his eye's on the laptop.

"It's not stupid," I begin, aimlessly drawing shapes on his hips with my fingers, "we're all scared of something, like Vic and that stupid needles thing. It's just what makes us, well, us." I say hoping to make him feel a bit better.

"Yeah, I guess you're right." He sighs relaxing against my body.

We stayed there in silence for a little while, just watching and enjoying each others company. I continued making shapes on his hips, I thought it would make him uncomfortable but he hasn't said anything about it. Getting more comfortable with being this close to him, I pull him back a little making his head rest on my shoulder, kissing his temple.

"Mike?" Tony breaks the silence. Smooth fuck head, you have freaked him out and ruined your friendship with him. "I really like you." He continues.

Wait what?

"Please don't freak out, I just..." he stops for a minute thinking of what to say, "it's just that I am really comfortable around you, and, like, you just make me feel better about everything. If it was Vic or Jaime that came in here I probably would have kept crying until I couldn't anymore, but you... You just know how to make me feel better, you can calm me down, I dunno..." He says going quiet again.

I just stay silent, unsure of how to reply.

"I'm sorry, that was weird," He said getting off the coach, "I'm just gonna go back to bed." He says walking towards the door and before I can even think he's gone.

I quickly gather my thoughts and stand walking back to the bunks. By the time I got there Tony's curtain was closed and you could here his sniffles mixed in with the snoring of others. As quietly as I can, I open the curtain and look at him.

"Shift over." I say simply. He looks back at me but doesn't say anything, he just moves closer to the wall giving me room to climb in. I crawl in laying next to him but he doesn't look at me so I keep talking. "I know what you mean, feeling comfortable with each other. It isn't just that though, I just really like you, I like your eye's, I like the way your face looks when you're concentrated on playing harder parts of songs, I like your crazy love for turtles and I really like you. I dunno what you think, but I think that we should give how we feel a go." Tony had turned around to look at me.

I have no idea what I was expecting him to do next, but I definitely was not expecting him to kiss me. The kiss was sweet and full of passion and there was no way I wouldn't kiss back.

After a while we had to pull away for air, "okay" he whispered. "Let's give this a go."

I don't think that I'm very good at writing fluff but ya know.

I decided just to keep writing requests because I've already missed the extension deadline so whatever.

Hope you enjoy my fairies, sorry if it's kinda short.
