Song- "Your Guardian Angel" by red jump suit apparatus

Pairing-Miz/Jack Swagger (Mike/Jake)

Warning-Boy/Boy!

When I see your smile
Tears run down my face
I can't replace
And now that I'm stronger I've figured out How this world turns cold
And breaks through my soul
And I know, I'll find deep inside me
I can be the one

Jake grinned down at the smiling face of his lover Mike. He would protect Mike from everything and everyone, he would never let Mike be hurt again. Thinking about all the pain Mike had endured through the years made Jake's eyes want to sting.

Jake knew this was a cold world at time but it had been a little to cruel to Mike for his liking. Jake knew he could be the one to protect and love Mike for who he was.

Not only was Mike his, he was Mike's and everyone knew.

I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to Heaven
It's okay, it's okay, it's okay

Even now that Mike was smiling at him Jake knew there would be times when that smile faded and Mike's world would come crashing but Mike would never hit the ground because as long as Jake lived he would be there to catch Mike. Jake would be by Mike's side forever, even after death. Which Jake knew was coming soon.

Seasons are changing and waves are crashing
And stars are falling all for us
Days grow longer and nights grow shorter
I can show you, I'll be the one

Jake had been to the doctors for a measly physical and they did tests and then they asked him to come back, he did. The tests shown he had some rare form of cancer that had been caught at an advanced stage, meaning he couldn't be saved. Mike didn't know yet and Jake was afraid to tell him because he knew that the news would wipe that smile from Mike's face.

Either way Mike had to know…Jake was just trying to find the right way to tell him.

I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to Heaven

It was early in the morning when Mike found out about his lovers condition. He had found the test results in Jakes pants pocket when he had went to put them with the other dirty clothes. To say the least Mike was crushed and mad as hell Jake hadn't already told him.

Jake was rudely awoken by a pair of his genes thrown at his face.

"What's going on? Mike what's wrong with you?" Jake asked worriedly, Mike scowled at him.

"You fuckin' jackass! Why the fuck didn't you tell me about this huh!" Mike raged, he eyes swimming and red rimmed.

"About what?" Jake was dreading what he knew the answer was.

Mike threw the paper at Jake and just like Jake had expected it was the test results showing the deadly disease he had.

'Cause you're my, you're my, my
My true love, my whole heart
Please don't throw that away

'Cause I'm here for you
Please don't walk away
And please tell me, you'll stay, stay

Jake sighed, "Mike calm down. We can talk about this pleath" Jake pleaded.

Mike's bottom lip quivered and he shook with rage but in his eyes aside from the rage you could see pain, hurt, betrayal, fear. "Why didn't you tell me Jake." Mike demanded

Jake got up and walked over to Mike and put a hand on his waist. Mike stared up at him, Mike looked peer out distraunt. Jake leaned down and pressed his lips to Mike's forehead.

"I didn't mean for you to find out this way, I meant to tell you sooner but baby you were so happy I didn't have the heart to hurt you the way I know your hurting." Mike slowly brought his arms up and clutched the front of Jake's black night shirt. "Jacob….what's going to happen…w-will you be okay." Mike squeezed his eyes shut and pressed his head into Jake's chest, afraid of the answer.

Use me as you will
Pull my strings just for a thrill
And I know, I'll be okay
Though my skies are turning gray

Jake felt his heart constrict painfully in his chest, not because of the fact that soon that heart would cease to beat but for the fact that Mike was so up-set.

"Im so sorry baby, but I am not going to lie to you anymore….I don't think I will be okay this time." Jake stated quietly, hearing the breath catch in Mike's throat. Mike grit his teeth together and felt the tears coarse down his face.

"No, no, no, no, no, no,no,NO!" Mike wailed, clutching at the front of Jakes shirt like his life depended on it. Jake carded his hands through Mike's hair soothingly, trying to calm him down before he started to hyperventilate.

"H-how l-long?" Mike sobbed out, Jake held Mike close. "Two years…maybe more." Jake answered half heartedly.

I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to Heaven

Mike felt his legs collapse but before he fell, two large brawny arms wrapped around him and held him up. Mike feft his insides freeze over, how was Jake so calm about this. Jake picked him up, Mike laid his head on Jake's large shoulder not having the strength to stand or anything anymore he was to exhausted from the anguish that was settled into his heart.

Jake sat on the bed with Mike sitting in his lap facing him. Mike leaned all his weight on Jake but Jake didn't mind, he held Mike close and stayed calm just trying to keep Mike from hurting.

"What am I going to do without you." Mike mumbled brokenly. Jake sighed and pushed Mike up gently so that he could see his face, the sight of his Mikey's tear stained face hurt him more than knowing he was dying.

"I will always be here even if you can't see me. I will be your guardian angel no matter what I will be here protecting you and making sure you are never truly alone ." Jake stated firmly.

I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to Heaven

For the rest of the day that is how they were, Mike was clinging to Jake and Jake was holding on to Mike attempting to help him deal with this. Jake worried about Mike but he knew that he would be protected no matter what because Jake, even though dying, would make for damn sure of that.

I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
