I Promise (A Michael Clifford Fanfic)

Chapter 25

I didn’t know how to respond, so I remained silent. The hug lasted several minutes, before I finally decided to pull away.

Michael gave me a confused look, and had opened his mouth to say something when I quickly spoke the words I hadn’t known I’d been wanting to say.

“I love you.” I quietly whispered, surprising myself.

“You what?” Michael asked, jaw dropped.

“Don’t act so surprised,” I said, covering my face to keep him from seeing the red that had stained my cheeks.

“Did you just say you love me?” He pondered.

“I did…” I stated, waiting for his reaction.

“Well guess what? I love you too!” He said, kissing my forehead. “I love you,” he said as he kissed my nose, “I love you so much,” Michael once again said, continuing to kiss everywhere on my face, excluding my lips.

“I get it! You love me!” I said with a giggle. “And guess what? I love you!” I said, as he finally attached our lips.

I was overwhelmed my the familiar sensation that alleyways accompanied Michael’s kisses. Even though this was nothing new, it somehow felt different after those three simple words had been exchanged.

Things started to get a bit more heated than they normally do, but Michael suddenly pulled away, leaving me confused.

“Crap! I just remembered that I told Calum we’d meet everyone in his room…” He stopped to look at the clock, “15 minutes ago!” 

I groaned before climbing off the bed and shuffling to the door where Michael was waiting for me.

Before I could protest, he picked me up bridal style and began walking to familiar route to Calum and Luke’s shared room.

I knocked on the door, as Michael’s hands were occupied holding me. Seconds later the door swung open revealing a relieved looking Calum.

“It’s about time! These two won’t stop sucking each other’s faces off!” Calum exclaimed, pointing at Luke and Kirstin who were obviously now a couple.

I giggled as Michael set me down on Calum’s bed and began to kiss me, earning a loud scoff from Calum.

“Geez! I thought you two would rescue me from this awkward situation, not make it worse”! He yelled, visibly frustrated.

“I was just messing with you, mate,” Michael said, before sitting down on the bed next to me.

The next hour was spent catching up with everyone, as neither Michael nor myself had had a proper conversation with anyone in nearly two weeks.

It turned out that Luke and Kirstin were in fact dating, and according to Calum, were not at all hesitant about showing it.

Calum was still single, although he mentioned a girl by the name of Brooke a few times, earning an eyebrow wiggle from Luke.

Michael and Luke were in an intense discussion about who knows what when there was a nock at the door.

Calum hopped up to open it, and we were greeted by a smiling Genevieve.

“I’m glad to see that everyone is doing better now!” She exclaimed in her normal bubbly voice.

“I just came to notify Michael that his room still needs quite a bit of work, so we’ll be pairing you with a new boy for now, until your room is suitable to live in again.” She explained, shifting her focus to Michael.

“Can’t I just stay in Rebecca’s room?” He whined like a little kid.

“I’m afraid not Michael, rules are rules. I know I let this one slide for you two, but I can’t have you in there all the time.”

Michael rolled his eyes, and the others all gave us a questioning look. None of them knew that we had practically spent every night together before our fight.

“Anyways! I’ll show you to your new room now, if that’s okay! I think you and the other boy will get along just fine!” She smiled.

“What’s his name?” Michael asked.

“Let me look,” she said, whilst flipping a few pages on her clipboard. “Ah, it says here that his name is Ashton Irwin.”
