only you. (m.w)

seventeen.

a whole new month had passed by,
and suddenly it was fall break.
y/n planned to stay at mikes where she'd be away from the woman she called mother.
but like everything else in her life,
her mother ruined it.
she yelled at y/n for telling the social worker it was a school fight.
her mother was a lot more violent now that she was school free.
her mother began hitting her a lot more than usual,
cussing her out more often.
y/n was grief stricken.
the constant stress was causing her appetite to lessen,
and her hair to fall out.
but through it all,
she snuck out every night at one am to sleep in the bed of the boy she loved most.
they laid in each other's arms,
content with love,
wishing it could last forever.
but y/n and mike knew better,
that nothing lasts forever.
no matter how hard they wished.

y/n's eyes slowly fluttered open to reveal the boy she laid across from.
"good morning,"
she spoke softly,
laying her hands against his abdomen in habit.
he smiled with his eyes still closed,
then laid a kiss to her forehead,
"absolutely right. a fantastic morning."
mike wrapped an arm around her waist and pulled her closer to him.
y/n giggled and laid a kiss to his adam's apple,
then nestled herself in his neck.
"oh, shit,"
he groaned,
his eyes focused on the time.
ten thirty on the dot.
mike's mom was here,
and she was awake.
"i've got to go. before your mom comes in here,"
y/n spoke while peeling mike's hands from her,
then rising out of the bed.
she hurried to pull her jeans on and search around for her book bag at the same time.
"no, no you're fine y/n. she went in early today."
mike informed,
reaching his hand out for her to come back into his bed.
she smiled and decided she couldn't decline such a warning invitation,
so she climbed back into his embrace where she felt at home.
"breakfast, anyone?"
nancy asked,
opening the door just slightly to ask.
"please,"
y/n smiled.
nancy nodded and closed the door behind her,
leaving mike and y/n alone again.
"hey,"
mike greeted softly once their eyes met again.
she blushed,
"hi."
his hand found its way to her cheek where the pad of his thumb caressed her skin.
chills ran throughout her body.
she had never been this happy;
this in love.
"i love you,"
y/n whispered
planting a lingering kiss to his jawline.
"i love you more."
"so, you remember jane, don't you?"
mike suddenly asked,
making y/n giggle.
"mm, yes. i think so."
"we've made an agreement. she won't come around you, or me inappropriately, if you won't go around her."
"mm, done and done."
mike chuckled and kissed her temple,
"good. cause from here on out, i'm switzerland."
y/n let out a loud laugh and shoved him playfully,
"sounds good to me."
"that reminds me of the first day we met. crazy to think about how far we've come, hm?"
"mhm, really crazy,"
she teased and leaned into him,
letting their lips connect as one.
she laid in his arms for another moment longer.
day dreaming,
and wishing their time together could last for years upon years.
here she laid,
full of bliss and hope,
unaware of the mess unfolding in the l/n house.
