Me: "Mwahahaha. I'm back!"

Carlos: "Finally! It's been forever!"

Micah: "What took you so long anyways?!"

Me: "Well I had to wait for readers to read it first! See if it was any good before continuing on with this!"

Carlos: "Well get on with it then!"

Me: "Right! Here's chapter two folks!"

Carlos's birthday...Micah had been fishing and cooking all week to be able to prepare the perfect meal for Carlos! He knew that his favorite food was sashimi and that his favorite fish was the snapper fish! He also had secretly been forging a gold fishing rod for him. He hoped it was enough. He wanted Carlos to know that he did care for him, as much as a friend could! He wasn't doing this to impress Carmen by getting close to her older brother, no!

Carlos was his best friend! Carlos deserved to have a nice birthday. Carlos had always been nice to him, giving him fishing tips and recently he'd been coming over and helping him with the farm work! It was a blessing to have such a considerate and strong friend like him.

So Micah decided to show him what that mean't to him! The gifts were not bought. He'd worked on them by hand and put his all into both the gifts. It took him awhile to catch a snapper, prepare it perfectly and find the materials needed to make the gold fishing rod!

All and all though, Micah looked over what he made with pride, smiling. He'd invited Carlos over for dinner, rather than find a way to storage the snapper he'd prepped for cooking, he'd cook it for him at his table and then give him his gift after he was done eating. He'd planned this whole thing out. Carmen had agreed to not come over, he wanted it to just be the two of them! Though Micah, being as oblivious as he was, never thought that Carlos might think this as a date...

Still, he couldn't help but think about how strange Carlos had been acting lately, maybe it was just him but he felt like there'd been something that Carlos had wanted to say yesterday. Something important that he'd been holding back.

It wasn't just yesterday though, for awhile, it seemed like Carlos was biting his tongue, holding back. Then another thought occurred to him, maybe it seemed so tense yesterday because Carlos was finally ready to spill whatever it was that was bothering him for so long. Then...Maybe he felt he couldn't say it because his sister had suddenly appeared.

A frown passed over Micah's face as these thoughts now began to come to his mind. He decided before the end of the night, that he would ask Carlos about this and see if his thoughts were right. Micah nodded, getting things ready, making sure that everything was perfect. The table was set and he heard the doorbell suddenly ringing. He rose his head and smiled.

"That must be him." He said out loud to himself. He wasn't expecting anyone else after all!

He opened the door and smiled. Carlos stood there smiling as well In his usual attire. His white muscle shirt and his green trunks. "Hey Carlos! Please come in. I'm making something special for you!" Carlos stepped in as Micah moved off to the side for him. "What is it?" He asked sniffing the air. "Snapper Sashimi!" Micah said. "You came just in time, it's almost done and after we eat, you can open y'er gift!"

Carlos nodded his head. "Sounds good to me." He said, smiling as he took a seat. "Hey Carlos there is also things that I want to talk with you about..." Carlos rose a brow. "Oh?" Micah nodded, setting the snapper Sashimi on the table, splitting it up and putting some on his plate, giving Carlos a little more. He wasn't so hungry himself. "Yeah, but let's eat first and open y'er present first." Carlos rose a brow but started eating. "It's good." He said after a few bites. "I'm glad that you like it!" Micah smiled, finishing quickly, Carlos shortly after finished his.

Carlos rubbed his tummy and Micah smiled, taking the plates to the sink. "The present is on my bed." He said. Carlos went over to it, unwrapping the delicately wrapped present. His eyes widened. "A gold rod?" Micah smiled. Walking over to him.

"Forged it myself!" Micah exclaimed proudly, Carlos smiled. Setting it to the side. "I love it, but...I'm curious, what did you want to talk about?" Micah bit his lip. "Well...Is there something on y'er mind? It seems like you are holding back on saying something, or-doing something I don't know..." Carlos starred at him for a moment.

"I have been holding back." He mumbled, walking forward to Micah, until he was hovering over him. Micah looked up at him. "Well what is it Carlos?" He tilted his head to the side. Carlos leaned down, kissing his lips roughly, pulling him flush against his muscular chest. Micah's eyes widened, his face turning completely red. "Mmf!"
