Michael was still against the wall being kissed by Blake. He was not expecting this. The push against the wall maybe but he expected it to be followed by punches. A kiss was the last thing he expected, but it was also the one thing he wanted more than winning The Glee Project.

Blake stopped to catch his breath and looked into Michaels eyes. Michael had a surprised/confused look on his face. Blake kissed him again only gentler.

This can't be real, Michael thought to himself as Blake pressed his body against his. I must be dreaming, it's too good to be true. Then Michael realized if this was a dream he was messing it up by over-thinking things as usual. So he did the one thing he wanted to do most, he let himself fall for Blake.

Michael gave in to Blake's kiss and with both hands he reached around Blake and touched his butt. Blake was just wearing his boxers so only a thin layer of cotton was keeping him from making full skin contact.

Blake reached under Michael's shirt and felt his warm body. Michael's body trembled as Blake's cold hand made contact with his warm body. Blake kept kissing him and only stopped when he pulled Michael's shirt off.

Michael still couldn't believe this was happening but he didn't want to question it anymore. He just went with it, trying not to over-think anything. He leads Blake to the bed and pushed him onto it. Then Michael kicked off his sneakers, dropped his jeans on the floor and climbed on top of Blake and kissed him. Blake reached up with both hands and squeezed Michael butt. It was the second time tonight that cotton boxers got in the way of direct skin contact, and these soft cotton boxers were hiding a rock hard lust that was just begging to get out!

They kept kissing until they heard someone coming. Michael got off of Blake right away and sat on his bed. They both wrapped themselves with their own blankets to hide their erections. The footsteps got louder and louder as the person got closer. A shadow could be seen getting closer to the door. A few seconds later Lily Mae walked in with a pillow on one hand and here favorite blanket in the other.

"Why are you guys still up?" she asked them.

"We were just about to go to sleep." answered Michael.

"Is something wrong?" Blake asked.

"Aylin is on the phone with Charlie and I can't sleep, do you guys mind if I sleep here tonight?" Lily asked.

Michael and Blake looked at each other and answered at the same time. "Not at all."

"Thanks I'll sleep oh Abraham's old bed" Lily Mae replied. She turned off the lights and got into bed.

Blake and Michael each in their own bed (now softer than their cotton boxers) laid back and closed their eyes. Blake smiled and for a moment the room felt less dark. Michael was smiling too. But then he remembered something that Blake told him at the end of adaptability week. Something only one friend would say to another. Blake had told Michael that he was in love with Nellie.

Tenacity week was now over and even though Nellie has been gone for a week now, Michael knows that Blake still has feelings for her and as he closed his eyes he couldn't help but wonder if Blake would still love Nellie in the morning.
