 "Micha hadn’t minded Samuel’s behavior. He was at least glad that Samuel had shown up to apologize even if they got off on the wrong foot. Micha hadn’t been sure if Samuel was going to even show up. He worried about the idea if Samuel hadn’t come to see him. Micha hated to think about what would have happened. He lay there comfortable with Samuel watching him. Micha was relaxed, even though his ribs were still hurting, he knew it was expected. He listened as Samuel acknowledged his words. Micha shifted as Samuel slipped a hand around his head bring him forward and kissed the top of his head. He pulled back once Samuel finished and rested his head on Samuel’s chest. Micha listened as Samuel spoke again and shook his head softly, ”It’s not your fault…I should have spoken up instead of ignoring what I was thinking.” He spoke softly sighing a little knowing he was to blame as well for what happened between them. Micha didn’t blame Samuel for leaving him in Queens after all he could take care of himself. "

 "Micha knew he only had himself to blame for what happened last night. If he had only opened up about his father then perhaps all of this would have been resolved and none of this would have happened. However the outcome of it would be that they never would have expressed their true feelings. Micha was glad though that things were out in the open between them. He was tired of feelings of what ifs and wondering what Samuel was thinking. Micha needed to know what Samuel was feeling was the same thing he was. He was happy to know that it was, and didn’t need to worry anymore. Micha relaxed beside Samuel as he lay there. He felt Samuel’s hold loosen on him as he shifted. Micha nodded slightly in agreement at Samuel words knowing that he only agreed as well to what he was thinking. He wished things had gone better after all if they had, then he wouldn’t be here now hurting. Micha sighed a little as he closed his eyes. He wasn’t tired just merely content as he relaxed. Micha didn’t want to think about what would have happened if things had gone differently. He wanted things to pass and move on between them and not think about the past. Micha lay there for a while before he heard Samuel speak. He opened his eyes as he glanced up to look at Samuel. ”I’d like a bath…though I need to clean my bathroom first…There’s still glass from the mirror on the floor.” Micha spoke softly as he watched Samuel knowing he needed to move. He didn’t want to spend all night sticky from sweat among other things. Micha at least wanted to clean off before going to sleep but he wasn’t in the mood for a shower. "

 "There was no telling how long they would be together. He was simply going through the motions with Samuel. Micha was lucky for what he had with Samuel. He had no reason to object or want for more. When it came to fighting, it seemed normal to him, after all what lovers didn’t fight. At least with the fighting, they were able to express themselves. As he lay there, he knew that he needed to give into Samuel helping him. He couldn’t do much for himself at the moment. The longer he lay there, the more his high went away and his pain started to increase. He felt Samuel shift beneath him causing him to pull away. Micha shifted rolling onto his back causing him to slip his arm around his waist. He felt the pain from earlier become more apparent. Micha nodded a little, ”Yes…If you wouldn’t mind cleaning the glass off the floor?…I think I can manage getting downstairs.” He spoke curiously questioning Samuel. Micha was willing to give into assistance but not if Samuel had plans to carry him downstairs. "

 "Even though the thought of help sounded nice, his small staircase would only prove to be a bad situation. He knew he was likely to get more bruises if Samuel had tried to carry him down it. Micha was simply glad for the small help of cleaning up the glass on his floor, even though he had been the one that had broken his mirror in the first place. He glanced toward Samuel as he spoke, ”They’re down stairs in my storage room next to the door.” Micha spoke giving Samuel an answer. It was the least he could do after all Samuel was offering to be helpful which he was willing to take. He watched as Samuel sat beside him on the bed stretching out his body. Micha lay there content not wanting to move but knew he had to. As Samuel turned to him with his hand out, he glanced at it for a second before extending his hand and taking it. He shifted as he sat up on the bed. The movement only caused pain to shoot through his chest. He groaned lightly as he slipped his free arm around himself as he shifted. Micha hoped that perhaps if he took a bath it would help with some of the pain but it was simply wishful thinking."

Samuel didn't mind cleaning up the glass. He didn't want him overexerting himself. At least anymore than he had in the last hour or so. He nodded quietly as Micha informed him where he kept his cleaning supplies. After stretching his limbs, he reached out to help Micha stand. Samuel let Micha move at his own pace. He saw the way the look of pain spread across his face. As much as he hated to see it, he knew it was inevitable. From what he knew, it could take week before Micha would feel any kind of relief. Once Micha was free of the tangled sheets and standing with both feet planted firmly on the floor, Samuel slowly lead the way downstairs.
Just as before, Samuel took things at Micha's pace. He didn't care if it pissed Micha off. Like it or not, injuries like this weren't going to just heal overnight and he was going to need to take it easy for a while. Walking through the hallway, Samuel released his hand when they reached the first floor to go grab the broom and dust pan. It took him a minute to find the room he had spoken of and another minute to find the items he wanted. When he found them, Samuel made his way to the bathroom. What he saw was more than he expected. He glanced back at Micha, but had the sense to keep his mouth shut. It wasn't his place to say anything about it. Unlike his other injuries, Micha did this to himself. He trusted he would come to him when he was ready. Then again, maybe he wouldn't. Either way, breathing a heavy sigh Samuel set out to begin cleaning up the mess. As he was still naked he was extra careful with where he stepped and what he touched. He didn't want to spend the evening picking shards of glass from his feet all night.
It took two trips to discard the larger pieces of glass and another three for the smaller shards. Samuel swept everywhere the broom could reach and even went as far as to shake out the bathmat. When he finished he went to return the broom and dust pan to their assigned place. Walking back into the bathroom, Samuel looked around for a drain stopper and some kind of bath soap or bath bomb. Just something that didn't come out of a bottle of Gillette, Old Spice, or Axe. It took a few minutes of looking before he found what he was looking for. Samuel then proceeded to place the stopper in the drain and turned on the water, fiddling with the knobs until it was nice and warm.

 "After untangling himself from the sheets, Micha stood up from the bed with the help of Samuel. He tried not to let the pain show but it was not easy. Micha knew a hint of pain showed on his face. He was glad Samuel didn’t question him about it. Micha followed Samuel downstairs, feeling him release his hand once they made it to the landing. He didn’t mind as he continued walking heading toward the bathroom. Micha remained outside as he waited for Samuel to return with the dustpan and broom. He turned the light on however as Samuel drew near.
As he stood there, he wasn’t surprised by the mess he made. Glass still lined the floor and counter. There was blood on the counter where he tried to clean his hand and wrap it up. He watched as Samuel took in the view of his bathroom but remained quiet about it. Micha leaned against the door-frame of the door. He stood there watching as Samuel started to clean up his mess.
Micha waited patiently as he watched Samuel cleaned up his bathroom carefully. He was thankful once Samuel was finished and had returned. Micha slipped into the bathroom, he watched as Samuel went about getting the bath ready. He smiled as he watched him, finding it amusing. Micha slipped closer toward Samuel, ”Thank you.” He spoke as he leaned against the edge of the tub waiting for it to fill up. "

 Sɑɱυεƪ ᴊᴏᵴҥʋᴀ Ɖɑᴠіʂ “Relationships are ropes. Love is a noose."
With the glass cleared away and the blood wiped away all that was left to do was wait for the tub to fill. The whole time he'd been cleaning, he could feel Micha watching him. It was an odd feeling. He couldn't really say he'd ever had someone watch him so closely when he cleaning before. Except maybe a maid who was forced to supervise him once when he was being punished. Kneeling beside the tub, Samuel dipped his fingers into the water to test the temperature. He hadn't even noticed Micha walking into the bathroom. Samuel smiled at the males words and gave a small nod before speaking. "If you really wanna thank me, I advise you don't go punching in anymore mirrors." he replied. Flicking water from his fingers, Samuel stood from his spot on the floor. He stepped closer to Micha, cupping his face and pressing a kiss to the top of his head. He pulled back, a soft smile spread across his lips.
After a couple of minutes had passed the tub was nearly full with a thick layer of bubbles covering the water. Samuel held his hand out to help Micha into the tub. He then carefully slipped in behind him, wrapping his arms around Micha's waist, and leaning back against the wall. Samuel sighed softly. The water felt amazing. He relaxed as the warmth soaked in to his tired muscles and calmed his even more tired brain. It had been such a stressful day. How they were even able to end the day like this was still beyond him. He didn't want to think how things were able to end like this. It wasn't important.
Closing his eyes, Samuel could feel himself start to drift off to a light snooze. He knew he shouldn't but his body was telling him a different story. He allowed himself a few minutes of rest before forcing his eyes and shifting closer to Micha. He laid his chin in the little nook of Micha's shoulder, turning his head to peck his cheek. Just as Micha was earlier, Samuel was feeling a little clingy. He wanted whatever this little bonding moment they were having to last a little longer. No fights, just love. It was enough to make him think that what they have is just perfect.

 "Micha couldn’t help but watch Samuel. After all he was naked; it was amusing to see him clean his bathroom. He found the whole sense of it enticing, though knew better than to be aroused. Micha leaned against the tub while he waited. He watched as Samuel nodded to his words. Micha rolled his eyes slightly as Samuel spoke teasing him. ”Be thankful it was simply the mirror and not my whole studio.” He spoke as Samuel drew near. Micha felt cup his face and kiss the top of his head.
When it came to anger, there was no telling how angry he could be. He was self-destructive at times against himself and everything around him. Micha could deal with a few broken bones for now, but not if he destroyed his studio. He watched as the tub filled with bubbles as he sat there. Micha wasn’t one for bubbles but the thought of a bath seemed relaxing. He didn’t feeling like standing in the shower. Micha stood up as Samuel offered to help him in the tub. He slipped into the tub gently not wanting to fall. Micha felt the warm water surround him. He shifted forward allowing Samuel to slip behind him.
Once Samuel was settled behind him, he leaned back against him resting his head against his shoulder. Micha felt Samuel’s arms slide around his waist holding onto him. He enjoyed the feeling of closeness as well as the feeling of relaxation. Micha knew that it was late and they were both probably getting tired by now. He let the warm water do its thing, washing away his worries and pains even for just the small amount of time it would allow.
Micha hadn’t realized Samuel had fallen asleep behind him. He was sitting there leaning against Samuel watching as the bubbles around them started to disappear. Micha felt a shift behind him as Samuel rested his chin on his shoulder. He turned his head slightly as he felt Samuel kiss his cheek. Micha didn’t mind the clingy behavior Samuel was having after all he had done the same earlier. He was simply glad that things were back on a level of understanding instead of chaos. Micha hated arguing with Samuel after all it eventually lead them nowhere and one of them getting hurt or both. He didn’t want that anymore, after all he knew if things continued then things between them would eventually end and that was something he didn’t look forward to. "

 Sɑɱυεƪ ᴊᴏᵴҥʋᴀ Ɖɑᴠіʂ “Relationships are ropes. Love is a noose."
Samuel could understand Micha's uneasy feeling. After all it seemed as though he was worrying daily were their relationship might take them. In his head he knew that worrying would do them no good. If anything, staying locked in his head all the time only created more problems than it managed to fix any. Before bending down to kiss him, he heard Micha speak once more. He knew it was meant to be a joke, but he couldn't manage to find any humor in his words. Samuel knew Micha to have a temper, much like his own at times. But he didn't want to come over one day for a visit only to find his studio looking like a bomb had gone off. Cleaning up his bathroom was one thing. Samuel wasn't so sure he could handle his entire workspace. On the other hand Samuel knew good and well that cleaning up was his own choice. Micha hadn't asked and more than likely wouldn't ask him if he actually were to destroy his studio.
Samuel soon put his mind at ease as they settled down in the bath. He was careful to keep his weight off of Micha's back, but still wanted to be close to him. It felt as though it wasn't very often they were able to relax like this. Too often they were at one another's throats, causing misunderstandings, or just hurting each other for the hell of it. He wanted to enjoy things as they were for as long as they could. Sighing softly, he turned his head to glance at Micha. "Did I tell you that I went home last night? My parents penthouse I mean." Samuel waited to see if Micha would have any reaction before he continued. He knew what he was saying was pretty random, but he wanted Micha to hear this. After a minute he decided it best to continue. "Anyway I slept over and the next morning we talked. Like always they prattled on about my engagement. You wanna know what I told them?" Again he waited for a reaction. Samuel was smiling as he recalled that mornings conversation. For once he didn't have to lie about not being ready to settle down or be childish and simple refuse to go through with it like he always did. Instead he said, "I told them I'm already seeing someone. That I absolutely cannot go through with this arranged marriage. Because I care about you far too much to go through with this and simply allow you to be my side fling, mistress, or whatever you want to call it....the point is I told them point blank I'm in love with someone else and I can't marry my finance. I only want you."
Samuel watched Micha carefully when he finished speaking. It was a mighty big confession, but at the time he'd meant every word of it. Sure he hadn't told them that the person he loved was a man. But it was just one of many stepping stones he believed to getting them off his back to marry the woman of their choosing. Samuel liked to think with time he could get them to change their minds and see that what he had was just as much a loving relationship as any other heterosexual couples. For now he thought it was just important that they know this time around it it didn't matter what they said. Samuel was determined to see this relationship last. He was positive they could make things for the better. Even if in the long run they did break up he wanted to be able to look back and know that being with Micha was the best thing to ever happen to him. Sighing again, Samuel dipped his head down and gave him a light squeeze around the middle. He didn't need for Micha to say anything back to him. It was enough to just have him sit there and listen.

 "As he lay there it seemed seem like he was the one in thought. Silence seemed to surround them as they sat there. It seemed the only time Samuel ever got silent was when he was thinking. He lay there leaning against Samuel enjoying the feeling of warm water surrounding them, along with Samuel’s arms around him. Micha didn’t have to wait too long it seemed for Samuel to open his mouth, though what he did say came out as a surprise.
The thought of Samuel and his parents together didn’t make for a great story at times. It only piqued his interest however. Micha glanced up at Samuel curiously with a raised eyebrow, ”Oh really?” He asked waiting for more detail after all what could be the bad part so far. Micha listened as Samuel seemed to go on though. He wasn’t surprised that Samuel’s parents had bothered him again about his engagement; it seemed a never ending story between them.
”What?” He asked only purely for arguments sake. Micha had turned a little in Samuel’s arms as he continued to listen to him. He saw the smile on his lips, which hopefully showed something good, had happened out of this little story of his. Micha was actually a little taken back by Samuel’s morning story. He hadn’t expected him to ever tell his parents about them, but then again he probably hadn’t told the whole truth, the part about him being a man. Micha could only find reason in it but also happiness.
He felt Samuel squeeze him, almost reassuring. Micha leaned closer as he turned back around. He rested his head on Samuel’s shoulder. ”What did they say? I mean they couldn’t have been too happy to hear you didn’t want to go through with your engagement, especially because of a man. “ Micha spoke slipping the last part in just wondering if Samuel had left that out. He didn’t care if Samuel’s family never understood, as long as Samuel loved him that’s all he needed."

Samuel would be lying if he said he wasn't enjoying the way he played into his story. While all true, he couldn't help watching his eyes light up with interest when he spoke of his parents, and his engagement. It also amused him the way Micha had actually turned to look at him, his face was truly something to behold. If Samuel ever had to list his favorite things about Micha, his expressions would most certainly make the top five. As he went on to speak, he told Micha all about his conversation with his parents. When he was done, he kept his arms around Micha while he buried his face into his shoulder. Samuel knew that he was going to have to tell him that he hadn't come out just yet. But he was going to. He had to, wanted to even. He wanted everything out in the open regardless of his family's reaction. He was without any shadow of a doubt, in love with Micha. If things went sour with his family, he knew he could always count on Micha to be there for him.
"Well," he started, "As you can imagine, they were a little skeptical at first. To be honest it wouldn't be the first time I lied about being with someone in order to escape this marriage. But then they started asking me questions like how long we've been seeing each other, what kind of person you are, what you did for a living, and the like. We probably talked for like two hours before I told them I was going to meet you. They said I should bring you over for brunch sometime." Samuel paused in his speech to turn and glance at Micha. "I think that's how I want to come out. For real this time. Not just some daydream about how it should be. I want to do this. If they still want to disown me then that's fine. It'll suck, that's for sure. But I'd still rather have you in my life instead of a bunch of people who are only going to be judging me harshly during every family function. "
When he finished speaking Samuel gently pulled back and glanced down at the male. It was rather hard to tell if he was happy that Samuel had actually told off his parents about the marriage. Or perhaps he was still disappointed that even after all that, Samuel was was still in the closet. After a moment, Samuel leaned forward to kiss him on the lips. "I'm sorry you have to put up with so much because of my cowardice. I'll make it up to you, I promise. Anything you want, name it." he kept his voice soft and sweet as he spoke. In all their time together Samuel was sure he hadn't been more serious than he was in that moment. Whether he was going to spend the rest of his life with Micha or the rest of the month, he wanted to do it openly and honestly. No more ushering him out the back door for fear of his brothers finding out. No more meeting up in the middle of the night like lovers in an affair. No, Samuel wanted to face his family proudly while holding his beloveds' hand. No amount of threats or guilt trips were going to stop him either. He was gay, he was proud, and he was head over heels for the man before him.

 "It was no surprise to him that Samuel hadn’t come out to his parents. He didn’t mind after all it seemed only natural. Micha knew Samuel was still worried even if he tried to hide it. He kept his attention on Samuel as he leaned against him. Micha listened as Samuel spoke about his parents. He could only be curious wondering what Samuel’s parents thought of him so far, even if they hadn’t yet discovered he was a man. Micha couldn’t help but laugh softly as Samuel mentioned the idea of having brunch together with his parents.
He found that Samuel was rather brave when thinking of his parents. Micha couldn’t help but agree, he knew that eventually Samuel had to man up to his parents. He couldn’t continue to hide who he was even if it meant being disowned. Micha felt Samuel pull back from him. He glanced at Samuel looking him over. Micha kissed Samuel back as he slipped his arms up around his neck. He felt Samuel pull back after a few seconds. Micha listened as Samuel spoke and shook his head softly. ”Don’t be sorry Samuel. There’s nothing to be sorry for…If you think meeting your parents is the right thing to do then I’ll stand with you.” He spoke as he leaned forward and kissed Samuel again. Micha wasn’t afraid to stand up against Samuel’s family after all it wasn’t his family that he loved and cared about. "
