The M&M Bag

By Kalio Halos



Disclaimer: See the one for chapter 1. Oh, and I forgot, I don't own M&Ms either.



A/n: Ohayou, min'na! Oops, sorry, `hem. Morning Everyone! Better? Ah well. Here is the second chapter of the blanket scenario. Hope you like. Be sure to review this one, too!



Mia sighed, everything was so warm, she didn't want to wake up and open her eyes. She heard a voice, but dismissed it as her mother calling for her to get up. 'No way,' she thought, 'I am going to sleep in today.' She smiled and turned over. She tried to ignore the voice, but it became louder and more insistent until she realized with a sudden jolt, that it was not her mother. It was Michael Moscovitz.



Mia sat up with her sudden realization, only to realize in turn, that sitting up quickly when someone is leaning over you is a very bad idea. She clasped her hands to her forehead and watched Michael do the same. 'Oooo... sorry...' she groaned.



When her forehead had recovered from throbbing, she took in her surroundings. First of all, she noticed, they had made it to the cabin. Second of all, she noticed that she was in a large, thick sleeping bag (A/n: yes, I adapted the blanket scenario for a sleeping bag. And, yes, the title does now make sense, or at least it should...). Last, but so-far-from-the-least-it's-not-even-funny, she noticed that Michael's lips were blue, and he was still looking like ice.



'Are you Ok? What happened?' she blurted it out.



Michael rubbed his forehead once more. 'You passed out right outside of the cabin. I carried you in and all I could find was the sleeping bag. You really scared me there for a while, ya know?' His face was still filled with worry.



'What about you? You look freezing! Get in here!' Mia's concern for Michael overrode a few thoughts before they crossed her mind. Apparently, they did cross Michael's and he blushed, making the thoughts finally hit Mia.



'You, uh, sure about that? I mean, I'll be fine out here, I have a thicker jacket.' Michael sounded the most uncomfortable that Mia had ever heard him, but this was serious!



'Don't be silly! You're frozen, and the sleeping bad is huge. And hurry up before your nose falls off!' Mia's words surprised even her. When did she become so brave?



'W-well, okay.' Michael pulled off his boots and coat and crawled in beside Mia, zipping up the bag on his way. He had to admit it was much warmer. After about ten minutes of his muscles stinging back to life, he dived in the bag, so his face could warm up. Beside him, Mia realized what he was doing and followed suit.



They faced away from each other, trying not to touch, but still sharing some heat. After a few minutes, Michael turned over to face Mia. ' You okay? Are you still cold?'



Mia turned over, too. ' I'm fine, just a little cold. You?' She peered at him through the darkness being under part of the sleeping bag.



'Well, I'm kinda cold, too, but I'm alive... You're alive, and that's all that matters, huh?'Mia could feel his breath mingling with hers.



'Yes, I'm glad,' Mia said softly.



Michael reached over and gathered her into his arms for a hug. 'Me, too.'



Mia, not totally sure how to react, decided that hugging back would be a fine course of action. She snuggled closer to Michael, surprised at how warm he was, and smiled into his chest. 'Thanks.'



Michael was surprised. 'For what?'



Mia smiled again. 'For walking with me. For saving me. For being really warm. Take your pick.'



Michael chuckled a little bit, and whispered in her ear. 'You're welcome for all of them.'



After that, the two just lay together and tried to sleep, taking comfort in each other's warmth and closeness. And as Mia finally closed her eyes she thought, ' Even if I am never this close to Michael again, we'll always have tonight, the M&M bag... just for tonight...' And she lost her battle sleep, in the arms of her secret love....
