~~Song is "Even When I'm Sleeping" by Leonardo's Bride~~
*Don't be confused by my apparent lack of ceremony,
My mind is clear.
I may be low or miles high off in the distance,
I want you near.*
Michael stirred in his sleep, he tried to get up, but something was holding him down.
He turned while still in Brian's arms.
"God, I hate him," he said sleepily. "Doesn't he know that I'm pissed off?"
*I love you,
even when I'm sleeping.
When I close my eyes,
you're everywhere.*
Michael found it amazing how perfect Brian's face was, and he couldn't help but stare.
He had tried so hard to stay mad at him. Not going to Babylon was one of those ways he wouldn't have to see Brian and forget what he had done in a matter of seconds.
He couldn't keep thoughts of Brian away, even in his sleep they came to him.
*And if they take me flying on the magic carpet,
see me wave.
If our communication fails I'll re-connect it,
I want to rave.*
Suddenly his eyes opened. He looked at Michael with the biggest smile on his face.
"May I ask how long you've been staring at me?" he inquired.
Michael looked away shyly, but Brian's hand turned it back to him.
"I didn't say it bothered me." he whispered before bringing Michael down for a kiss.
He sighed, there was something haunting and strange about Michael's kiss.
*I love you,
even when I'm sleeping
When I close my eyes,
you're everywhere*
"What are you doing here, Brian?"
"Well, first I wanted to say I'm sorry, about the other.......what happened was........shit, you know what I'm talking about and I'm sorry."
"Is that all?" Michael rudely asked
"No, there is something else and this is kind of hard-actually, no make that extremely hard for me to say....."He paused and began to look panicked.
Michael ran a soothing hand through his hair
'Go on' he whispered.
"I love you, Mikey"
"You came here for that!"
Brian laughed, " I don't think you're getting the point here Mikey-I'm IN love with you"
Michael immediately removed his hand from Brian's hair and moved away.
*No matter where the road is leading us remember,
don't be afraid.
We have a continent that sometimes comes between us,
but that's ok.*
"Michael, you don't have to do that!'' he shouted, perturbed with his reaction
"Brian, you come over here and tell me that.......that you're in love with me and I'm supposed to what, fall into your arms?" he retorted
"That would make this much easier for the both of us" Brian answered with a crooked smile. "I really do love you, I've always loved you, only you"
"What about Justin?" he asked dejectedly.
"I loved Justin, but not like I love you, you're different.......you......I don't know I think you....."
Michael cut him off- "With all respect to "Jerry Maguire" please, don't end that with "You complete me." Michael joked, trying to make the situation less serious.
"I didn't plan on ending it like that."
*I love you,
even when I'm sleeping.
When I close my eyes,
you're everywhere.
When I close my eyes,
you're everywhere.*
Brian moved closer to Michael and leaned in to kiss him. Michael flinched.
"Don't be afraid, Mikey"
Leaning in further they kissed languidly, both not wanting to go anywhere.
