(Their night time view)
I somehow got through the whole school day without continuing that conversation with my ex-friends and also Michael. I packed my stuff into my shoulder bag and quickly made my way out the school. I don't know why I was rushing or anything though it just felt like the right thing to do.
As I was on my way home I passed by the dog park. I took a seat on the bench that was facing the park. I watched the owners playing with the dogs and the dogs playing with each other. I smiled at myself looking at how everyone in that area seemed genuinely happy with their life.
What am I doing with mine then?
"How do I have fun with life?" I asked out loud.
"Well, firstly you can learn to fix your stuck up attitude." I turned behind me and saw Michael with a serious face looking down at me.
"Why are you here?" I asked as he just shrugged
He crossed his arms over his chest, "Cause I knew you would go here." He said not adding anything to it.
"What are you? A stalker." I raised an eyebrow
He closed his eyes and let out a small sigh and went around the bench so he was now sitting next to me. "Then what are you a harasser hugging me all of the sudden," Michael said suddenly bringing that topic I was trying to forget about.
My face was getting red, "I told you to forget that!! I just happened to do that." I said as I covered my embarrassed face into my hands.
"Then same goes for me. I just happen to know you would come here." He said right back at me.
I looked at him with annoyance. I stood up from my seat and started walking away. I have been surprising myself more and more lately. I know I want to stay and continue watching and talking to Michael but, my body is doing the exact opposite.
As I was walking away, Michael grabbed onto my arm and pulled me up against him. My face was up against his hard chest, I could even hear his heart beating fast. "Um, Michael why are you embracing me?" I eyed upwards, my glasses somewhat getting in the way.
"I don't know," He said gripping me tighter.
"You know people are going to think we are a couple." I tried to wiggle my way out but he kept a firm grip on me.
He chuckled a little, "Let them think that then." I don't know if he knew that it would be a big deal if I was caught or he didn't give two shits.
"But what if I don't want that," I said still having my head against his heart as it seemed to pick up speed.
He loosened his grip so I could properly look into his eyes as he asked, "Do you not like being in my arms?" Michael questioned
"I'm not saying that. I should be saying that I hate it and all but that isn't the case." I said finally relaxing into his arms and stopped trying to push my way out of it. Not like it was working anyways.
I could hear his heart beating even faster than before when I did that. By any chance am I really the one who is making this happen to his heart. I glanced at Michael and he showed no signs of him being flustered. I seriously don't understand this guy. "So be quiet for a minute and let me hug you." He said seriously, squeezing my shoulders.
I did just that and let him hug me as I said nothing. I just stayed in his chest listening to his heartbeat in my ear slowly getting slower and calmer but still rather fast. I wonder how nice it sounds, like an excited drummer is hitting it.
The heartbeat started to fade away as he let go of me. I raised my head to look at him and his face was almost indifferent. Or so I thought. I saw the little shade of pink growing across his face. I wonder how my face looks like. "Can I talk now?" I asked.
"Yes, you may." He said as he finally let go of me leaving me with the cold air to replace his body heat.
"Michael"
"Yes"
"Michael"
"Yes," my eyes were getting watery again. Why was that? I have no idea.
I rubbed my eyes. I swear this guy really was messing with my brain or something. I never did this before he came into my life. "Michael why? Why do I feel lonely, why do I feel like I am alone when you aren't near me? And once you are here the world seems to change too much." Tears threatening to spill every word I say.
"I don't know Hyugo." He said patting my head. His huge hands seeming to fill me with warmth.
"Michael, what have you done to me?" My voice cracked as I said that.
"I did nothing at all." He said with his plain face, his expressionless face but for some reason, it ticked me out.
I grabbed a hand full of his white t-shirt and pulled him down to my eye level, "Yes you did you cursed me or something." I yelled
"And how am I supposed to do that?" He was keeping his composure and I hated that, cause it was clear I who was overreacting.
I let go of his shirt for a second but I regained my grip, "With a wand." I ended up saying after a long pause.
"And where is that wand to use to curse you?" This time his emotionless face fell and replacing its place was a small smirk.
"An invisible one," I exclaimed
"Ok," he said and then took the sleeves of his jacket he was wearing over the t-shirt and wiped the tears away from my eyes.
He grabbed my hand that was gripping his shirt and lightly pulled it off of his shirt but pulled me along as he started walking out the park and back into the street. I looked at the back of his head tracing it down to his hands that engulfed mine.
His strides seemed to get bigger and bigger. Where was he taking me? I thought once I realized we were now walking up a hill with not many houses in sight.
"Micheal where are you taking me?" I asked.
"To another world." I heard him chuckle while saying that. What was wrong with him?
I loosened my hand a little, "You're going to kill me??" I said suddenly getting scared and pulled back but, he didn't let go.
"Yes, I am so shut up until we get to the place." Michael bluntly said
My other hand was now on top of our intertwined hands and pulled and tried to pull it away. "No please don't kill me. I have too much to lose. Well not really but still." All I heard in return was a small laugh.
"Clam down Hyugo. I am not killing you. Who do you think I am?" He said glancing behind him and made small eye contact with me.
"That's the point I don't know all too much about you," I admitted
"Same can go for you too."
"Then what are you trying to do, taking me to this area. It is now dark." I said starting to relax a little.
"That will just make the view even prettier to look at."He said as he stopped making me bump into his back a little.
I pushed my face out of his back full of muscles, "View?" I then moved beside him and looked up, a ton of small lights twinkling right in front of me. I was amazed it was the view of the city on full display up in this hill. "Michael it is so pretty."
"Right? I knew you would love it." I turned to him and saw his eyes were twinkling in the little lights.
"But why?" He turned to me and smiled.
It was dark up in the hill but I still managed to make out a little bit of his face, "Cause I wanted to be alone with you."
"And why is that?" I questioned not at all getting what he is trying to get at.
"Something about your arrogant and cocky attitude just makes me feel a sort of way." Michael slowly started to say.
I then start to get an idea in my head once he had said that. As Michael was looking at the view I got closer to him closing off the space between us. He turned to look at what I was doing. Once our shoulders were touching I took my hand and moved it over his chest slowly looking at him with an innocent face through my glasses. He didn't seem to matter all too much about my actions and I was about to stop but, he grabbed my hand and his other hand grabbed my chin and kissed me.
With tongue to add.
I was trying to pull away but he didn't let me. His hands moved around and eventually settling on my back caging me in his arms. He kept kissing me but at some point, I stopped struggling and followed his lead.
He let go of me looking at me with hungry eyes. I wiped my lips and looked at him as he was staring at me with no expression once again. His eyes started to relax a little and I started to talk. "Why do I want to continue?" I said seriously looking him square in the eyes.
"I—-"
"Shut up let me speak. Why did you kiss me? Why am I not disgusted by the fact that I kissed a poor person, much less a guy." I looked at him but he didn't say anything. "Talk Michael I need answers."
"You told me to shut up though." He said looking at the floor but, it was too dark for me to fully make out his face.
"Yeah I did but since when do you ever listen to me," I argued back.
"I don't know it just sounded like I should." At this point, he was twirling his hands. I sighed and pulled his face up and calmly said the next few words to him.
"So listen to me and answer my questions."
