Maybe We'll Make It After All {Sequel to What If? ~ Louis Tomlinson Fan Fic}

Chapter 31 - Forever And Always

The doctor left as I saw Michael come in.

"So you're having anxiety?"

Michael asked as we walked the crowded halls.

"Yeah. You know how bad it got in grade ten?"

Michael nodded,

"I know. I was afraid that it would come back. I really hate that though. The boys and I will be there for you. Did you tell Ashton about this? Is that what you guys were talking about that day we caught you?"

I nodded my head, it was a lie but it's the only way you can keep your secret. You didn't want Michael to find out why you hurt yourself because he would kill Louis for sure. Let's just say out of the many people who hated Louis, Michael had a strong passion of hate for him. Bigger than anyone else and I don't understand why? It only sparked when I told him that I had feelings for Louis.

"Yeah, I didn't want to tell you guys. Ashton kind of caught me off guard... Let's just say after your performance, I made up a lame excuse to leave because I was feeling anxious and he found me."

Michael shot me a confused look,

"How come you were feeling anxious?"

He asked me as I went to my car,

"I just... I thought that you were mad at me."

Michael ran over to me,

"Is it wrong to think that you wrote that song about me leaving?"

I asked him finally stating the truth,

"No you're not actually. I did write it about you leaving. I was torn when you left because you were my only friend in class. The other boys were put in the other group and I had nobody until you were there for me."

Michael admitted, I could see his eyes turned a bit red.

"I'm so sorry if I upset you. It's just how I let my feelings out. You do the same with your songs."

I nodded in agreement as we both sat in my car for a second taking in everything. I really think this is what we needed. We never understood eachother until know.

"To be honest. I didn't know I meant that much to you. I actually thought you only talked to me because everyone else was real assholes?"

Michael giggled as he put his hand on mine,

"They all were assholes. All except for you. And yeah. You do mean a lot to me, you were the only girl in my life who pushed me towards the positive things in life. My mom tried but she couldn't. Only you could."

I started giggling as I hit his chest playfully,

"Don't get all soft of me Cliffy."

He laughed as he hit me back playfully,

"But it's true."

He smiled like a child as you both giggled your asses off. I took out my hand and offered Michael to shake it.

"Best friends again? I won't leave this to me?"

I suggested as he flashed me a smile as he shook my hand,

"Forever and Always."

He laughed as you thought about what he said,

"Isn't that a song about a guy being late for his date and his excuse was that he's in the hospital. The poor guy died at the end Michael!"

You cried as you shook him as he laughed at your actions,

"Yeah. But you have to admit. It's a great song."
