Nyctophilia||Malum AU

Nyctophilia (n.) love of darkness or night; finding relaxation or comfort in the darkness.

That's the definition of what Michael was talking about last night. Google had other offers as well (feeling like you belong in the dark - imagine if Michael is part vampire, that's so fucking cool and highly unrealistic -shut your mouth Calum), but the most gut wrenching was this one: Nyctophilia usually applies to those suffering with deep sadness, dark/depressing thoughts or feeling suicidal.
That rocked my core and shook me up like an earthquake.
A boy that beautiful and bright shouldn't feel so downcast and dreary. He's literally the sun in the middle of the night when the moon came out to play. I refuse to believe that he can hold such negative thoughts.
I want to make him have happy thoughts.
