I feel like a jerk making ya wait. So here's chapter 4.

-Mike-

Did I hear that right? Did Puck just tell me that he loves me? He looks me dead in the eyes and I can tell he's not lying. His eyes say it all. They're burning hazel orbs of nothing but love. Without any warning he leans in a gently kisses me.

No one else seemed to notice, which I'm thankful for. Though they would never judge me I'm just not ready to come out to everyone. I hope Puck feels the same way.

"T-thank you Noah." Is all I manage in a whisper and I let hold me for a little while longer.

As soon as I don't think I can handle any more the doctor comes in. It was my father's doctor.

"Sorry to interrupt but I have some news about Mr. Chang." at my head snaps up and I listen intently to whatever it is the doctor has to say.

"We've managed to fix the fractures in your father's skull and it looks like his coma will only last for a few days. We were just recently informed of your situation and want to know if you have any other family that can keep an eye on him during his recovery."

"Why can't he just stay here? If that-that THING comes home and I'm there one of us will end up dead! AND I SWEAR TO GOD THAT IF HE DOES ANYTHING TO ME WHEN HE DOES WAKE UP THAT SON OF A BITCH WILL END BEING 6 FEET UNDER!" All of these pent up emotions I have for the man that brought me into the world are being released all at once.

"I'm sorry Mike but its policy, we can only hold him here for a week after surgery. This seems unfair I know but you have a 7 days to find a caretaker for him or else he'll end up back at home with you." with that the doctor leaves us.

I pull out my cell and go through all of my contacts and try to find a family member that would be willing to put up with my slob of a dad. I reach the L's and one name catches my eye. I push the send button and pray that they'll pick up on the other end. After 2 rings I'm greeted with a hello.

"Hey Lena it's Mike. I need a favour..."

"Yeah and what would that be?"

"Dad's in a coma he needs someone to take care of him when he gets out of the hospital and I was wondering if you could take care of him for me."

"Mike you don't sound too good. Yeah I'll take care of him but what happened and why can't mom just take care of him?" At the sound of the word mom everyone looks at me with a 'please don't cry/WTF' face.

"Sis..Mom... she-she's.. d-dead." I stutter out and begin crying again.

"I'll ask what happened later when I get there. Don't worry little bro I'll be there shortly. If you can try to stay away from the house when he does come home. Okay?" her voice is calm yet frightening at the same time.

"A-alright. Bye sissy." I say.

"Bye bubba I'll see you in a bit." with that she hangs up.

I look back towards the others, their eyes all on me. Wondering. Waiting for me to do something.

"I need to go, thanks guys for coming out but I need to go." With I left the room everyone nodded their consent and we all left as a group.

After saying their goodbye's we all went our separate ways. Just when I realised that I had gotten a ride over here. Shit how am I gonna get home tonight?

"Hey Mike, I can give you a ride home." I turn to see Noah standing behind me.

"Thanks." Is all I say when head to his truck. He starts it up and we leave hospital.

The drive home was a silent one. When we reached the house I got out of the truck and turned to look back at Noah.

"Stay with me. Please."

-Puck-

"Stay with me. Please." Mike looked and sounded so broken. I couldn't deny him anything at this point. So I hopped out the truck and we headed inside his house. He led me up to his room. When we got there he changed into a pair of shorts and a wife beater and laid down on the bed.

He gave me a pair of his sweats to wear and I changed into them and left my shirt off. I climbed into bed with him but didn't touch him. I was afraid he would get spooked and panic.

"Noah, could you hold me again. Please." His voice was small and timid. I moved closer to him and wrapped my arms around him. He turned in my arms and looked me in the eye.

"I love you." he whispered and gently pressed his lips against mine. Normally I would try to take the kiss further but I chose to let stay chaste.

"I love you too Mike. Now get some sleep. You don't have anything to worry about okay? I'm here and I always will be Mike. I love you." I cooed to him and he snuggled closer to me as much he possibly could. After a few minutes his breathing slowed to a calming pace. I stayed up a little longer after he fell asleep thinking to myself.

'No matter what happens tomorrow, I'm gonna protect him. And no one is going to take him away from me.'

After that, my eyes closed and fell asleep. Knowing that whatever may happen from now on Mike won't have to go through it alone.

I am so glad to have finished this chapter! Yes Lena is Mike's older sister in this story. Hope you all enjoyed!

Love yall
