Powers Part 26
"Well hello to you too" Michael said as he rose from the floor.
"Michael, why are you sneaking into my room and scaring me to death?" Maria rambled.
"Hold your horses, one question at the time" Michael answered.
"What ever" Maria said and sat down on her bed, she was too tired for his shit.
"Do you have a towel, because it's raining if you haven't noticed." Michael said sarcastically.
"Hold on" Maria answered and walked into the bathroom and later emerged with a white towel and handed it to Michael.
"Thanks" Michael said and started drying his hair off.
"So?" Maria said to Michael, waiting for an answer.
"So?" Michael asked confused.
"So tell me what the hell you are doing here at one in the morning, spaceboy!?" Maria yelled frustrated with him.
"I came to see if you were alright, but I guess that was a mistake" Michael stated, and then walked over to the window and started to go out but stopped when Maria said:
"Michael wait…you came to see if I was ok?" He crawled back in and stood facing Maria.
"Yea no matter how our lives may be, I will always care about you" Michael said to Maria.
"Michael…can I have the necklace; I didn't get it before" Maria asked as she looked into his eyes.
"Yea, I just waited for the right moment to give it to you, and well, it is officially your birthday so happy birthday Maria" Michael said and handed Maria a nicely wrapped present. Maria opened the present and pulled the necklace out.
"Can you help me put it on?" Maria asked Michael.
"Sure" Michael answered and took the necklace from her hand and laid it around her neck, that sweet, soft neck. When Michael touched her skin, Maria felt warm and safe. Then, all of a sudden, he pulled her around facing him.
"Thank you Michael" Maria said and looked into his eyes. Michael moved in to kiss her, but was interrupted by a voice at the window:
"Are we interrupting?"
TBC.
