Prompt: “This be a little weird on like, maybe have a mike x reader on where like, mike is all over the reader (this is after until dawn the game) (no one died besides Hannah and Beth) but anyway, mike is all over the reader, because he broke up with Jess, because well actually Jess cheated on him.”
It’s been six months since what happened on the Mount Washington. And the last few months had been hard on all of you. Luckily, no one else had died, but the horrific memories were hunting all of you. When you were out on the street, in a dark room or when you were sleeping. Every loud noise causes you to flinch and sleeping was only possible with a fucking night light. However, these weren’t your only problems. There was also Mike.
Mike had been your best friend since Middle School you were doing everything together. He had comforted you when you were sad because you broke up with your boyfriend and so he came to you when he needed comfort. Just much less than you. Most of the time he was the reason someone needed comfort. But when he found out that Jess had cheated on him, some super old CEO guy, he was devastated. And not only because of her ass. Apparently, bitchy Jess, had a soft and loveable side. But also a very…selfish one. That CEO guy promised her jewellery, clothes and a model carrier. And I think Mike wasn’t that disappointed that she cheated on him and left him, he was more disappointed that it was for someone who was more successful than him. Mike had always been the ambitious type, and his wish to become president one day isn’t that grounded either, and this was pretty hard on him.
So it was never a surprise when he knocked at your door, sometimes in the middle of the night, and wanted to spend some time with you. After all you were his best friend and the only person he could talk to. But what you didn’t know at this time, he had fallen for you. Actually a long time ago, but he had successfully suppressed this feelings. Until one day.
It was already pretty late, about 11 p.m. when your apartment bell rang and when you opened the door, of course Mike stood there, with his stupidly charming smile. “I have beer, chips aaaand you have your Netflix subscription” he said and walked passed you. “Please come in” You said sarcastically and followed him into the apartment, he was already sitting on his place, yes he had already his own place, and had opened the first two beers. You gave in sighing, sat down next to him and looking through Netflix, trying to find something you both would enjoy watching.
About an hour later Mike laid with his head in your lap on the couch, while you were stroking his black hair. He sighed lowly. “Are you okay?” You asked him. “Yeah…this is just really nice, you know” He turned and looked up at you. “Thank you, Y/N. Seriously. For standing me” A soft smile spread across your face. “It’s alright. You’re not that bad at keeping someone company”
Suddenly he sat up, looking you deeply into your eyes. “No. I’m serious. Thank you” You were taken back a little bit, so you just nodded. “Of course. You’re my friend Mike” He raised his hand and put it on your cheek, his thumb slowly stroked your soft skin. Your heart skipped a beat when he did so. “I’m your friend” He whispered and you watched him closely. Every move he made. Your heart was beating faster, so fast you figured that he was able to hear it. And you had thought that you were over your crush on him. And then, just like that, he leaned in and put his lips on yours. It was great and weird at the same time. Great, because it felt like a thousand fireworks went off in your stomach, but weird because you were just friends for so long, and now….but all of your thoughts were whipped away, when Mike’s hand moved up to the back of my neck, and pushed me even closer to him.
When we finally separated, we looked at each other, panting heavily. “Wow…” he said and looked at me with a big, happy smile. “Yeah…wow” I agreed and put my head on his shoulder and he wrapped his arm around me. Life was starting to be great again.
