Could I get a Michael Afton matchup please? I'm a 5'6" (167cm) non-binary (afab) bisexual! I'm an absolute dog lover, a total introvert and touch starved. I'm also super forgetful. I'm a total worrier and pessimist with my own life, but very supportive of my loved ones. I tend to overthink about and make plans for years in the future. I'm pretty good at cooking, but terrible at baking! The perfect date for me would be an amusement park or a quiet movie night cuddling. Thank you!!!
“I’m nervous, and honestly I don’t think you’ll like me” - michael
you had actually met at the dog park; it was a very precious meeting actually T ^ T
you had decided to take your dog out to the dog park and coincidentally, michael had been walking home from the store
he loves animals so he tends to take this route home just to see the doggos
fun fact: mike is actually more of a cat person, he thinks they’re calm and they help his anxiety
on this particular day, your dog had spotted michael, running towards him in an excited matter— which confused you since he wasn’t usually this nice to people
(d/n) ended up jumping on mike, making him lose his balance and fall to the ground. he chuckled before petting the doggo, “hello to you too, pup”
you were dreading having to talk to mike, you were shy and meeting someone new was just— nerve wreaking honestly T ^ T
nonetheless, you went over anyway. michael looked up at you with a smile, “is he yours?”
you slowly nodded, working up a smile before turning towards your dog, “come on, bud. we gotta get going”
and right there and then, your voice was sugar coated to michael, making him feel small butterflies, “hey uh, I’m michael, by the way”
when you had gotten used to michael, you quickly began to show him how wonderful you were
and he really liked you, he thought you were the most precious person ever. you weren’t too crazy but you weren’t too chill either
michael had asked you out on your birthday, as he thought he should do, and he felt so lucky because you said yes
knowing who you are, he invited you out to a date at an amusement park and boy was this boy nervous to go out with you
“wow, the rides look nice” you tried to start a conversation when you guys arrived
“y-yea. i agree” he shyly replied
the silence was killing both of you-
“so uh, should we go on ahead?” you tried first
“oh! yea!,” he accidentally exclaimed too loudly, “l-let’s try the games first and move onto rides”
michae’s really good at the game booths at amusement parks so he managed to get you a couple of stuffed animals, being entirely grateful that you smiled when he handed you them (thank god he has his dad’s anger issues-)
the date ended up going really well!
you both did have a small conversation together, getting to know more about your personal lives since this was a date
but mike was acting so weird :( it made you worry, thinking maybe he realized he wasn’t so interested in you anymore
your thoughts did end up changing when you felt him try to take your hand & hold it in his
he thought your hand was so pretty, so soft, and felt so right being held in his, small blush coated his pretty face before he turned to you, “I like this. holding your hand” he managed to say
you softly nodded, agreeing with his statement, ‘finally’, you thought to yourself, so he wasn’t having seconds thoughts after all
but then michael let go of your hand and you wondered once more what you did wrong as he looked bothered
the last ride of the night came along: the ferris wheel
and you hoped more than anything that you would finally get to know more about him, get to have some intimacy to know if this relationship was a good idea or not
towards the end of the ride, you were grateful that the awkward silence would come to an end, finally deciding that maybe dating michael wasn’t such a good idea if he wasn’t interested
you tried once more, reaching for his hand only for him to back away, you sighed disappointingly, “okay, what is going on with you? you seemed.. interested at first. you’re the one who asked me out. so what’s going on?”
michael turned towards you finally, his blue eyes staring at your pretty face, the obvious pink tint softly decorated on his face before he gave you a small smile. the air around you felt hot before he finally quickly leaned in, placing his soft lips against yours, taking in the feeling of how much he truly wanted to experience a love with you
upon letting go of the kiss, he leaned his forehead against yours, catching his breath before his hand tightened his loving grip on yours, “.. I’m nervous, darling. and I appreciate how long you’ve dealt with me being an idiot”
(date scene was inspired by jane the virgin (michael and jane’s first date 😌 of course it was altered a bit tho-)
things he loves about you
let’s start with a cliche thing. the height difference between you two isn’t dramatic but he thinks it’s cute sometimes when you can’t reach something that he easily can, you miss by a few inches and groan when he calls you short considering you’re taller than the average person; he loves your height difference, it’s perfect and adorable
growing up, michael was a very touch starved person as he didn’t really get much physical affection from his father and his mother was never around since he was little. which means, he enjoys touching you or when you touch him, it makes him feel loved and safe which he appreciates; he loves how touch starved you are as well, let’s him know that his physical affection is completely okay with you and he can do it as much as he wants
one time you two went to the mall for one sole purpose and were searching for a specific thing. you both left with multiple bags of new clothing and items and it wasn’t until you arrived home that you realized you forgot the important thing you needed. pfft- you complained so much and michael chuckled as you internally cried inside; he loves how forgetful you can be, cause it’s cute to see you panic over it
don’t get him wrong, michael really loves how supportive you are of his decisions, plans, and choices for the future. but, he’s noticed how doubtful you can be and how negative you are towards your own decisions, accomplishments, etc. so he always tries to show you how supportive and proud he is of you, so hey; he loves the beautiful smile and look you give him as he shows you his loving support
after a couple of years of dating, michael had cleaned out a storage closet that he had so you two could make it into a cozy hangout spot or anything else that sounded or looked cool. when he had picked up a box, a paper had fallen out. it looked like it was maybe a year old or so. but when he picked it up and got curious about it, he saw that it was a house plan, where certain things would go and which rooms would be which; he loves more than anything that you had planned what your future shared house with michael would look like
for your one year anniversary, mike had shyly asked if you two could maybe have a baking contest. he was really good due to his mother teaching him when he was young. so he loved the idea of being able to impress had he was sure you were a good baker too and he liked worthy competition. okay so, you totally panicked when he asked. but nonetheless, you agreed. worst mistake of your life- while michael made a famous dessert perfectly, yours looked like- *censored; disgusting imagery placed here* yeaaa-; he loves how much you try just to make him happy, and hey, you enjoyed his dessert and the smile on your face is all he needs
meeting his family; peaceful au
finally!! william thought his eldest son would never get married. he was so happy to have you be introduced to him as mike’s fiancé. he thinks you’re really stunning, and honestly, the more he gets to know you, the more he thinks you’re perfect for his son. he was surprised to hear that you couldn’t bake actually since he remembered mike saying when he was younger that he hated the thought of dating someone who couldn’t bake like he could. but eh, it’s alright. this way, mike can bake your future wedding cake. overall, the man adores you and welcomes you into the family immediately
you’re so precious to mrs. afton!! oh this woman loves so much that he picked you. honestly, she couldn’t see anyone else with her son. not gonna lie, she was a bit sad that you’re terrible at baking- but then she figured, “it’s alright honey, I can bake the dessert and you can make the food”. okay I’m kinda jealous cause it was such a fun experience for you to be in the kitchen with this woman- but overall, she really likes you, she’s grateful you love her son
O_o evan- okay, hear me out. as he got older, evan’s attitude switched to a teenage michael. so evan literally fucking adores you. not only does he thinks you’re attractive, he totally high-fived michael when he was introduced to you and gave you a compliment. anyways, evan really likes you. you don’t really have much in common but he reminds you of michael since mike still carries his immature self inside. but I mean- evan is the only person in the family who can’t bake so- at least you both can internally cry about that- but hey! you and evan get to be baking judges at the aftons home competitions so :)
you’re her taste tester and new sibling. the moment elizabeth looked at you, she decided right there and then that you were hers (platonically). she thinks you’re so awesome! you have a lot of stuff in common and she’s grateful to have a family best friend. not that she doesn’t love her parents and brothers but having one who didn’t grow up with her just feels.. better, in a sense. she likes making mikey jealous by having you try all of her sweets and give your opinion, she knows you always say they taste so wonderful. she uses it against mike during competitions- “OH YEA?! y/n literally said that my sweet was fucking delicious the other day, suck it wanker!”
(let’s continue with the jane the virgin theme! in the show, michael died due to a heart attack. so here we go!)
receiving the call was so awful at the time, evan had come over to visit you and his nephew (pet or kid, you can pick)
the moment he walked in, he watched the phone fall out of your hands, a painful sound escaping you as he watched you fall to the ground, horrible sobs letting themselves be shown to express the pain in your heart
“Y/N!” he ran over to you, quickly holding onto you as you moved around, obviously panicked by what you had heard
you couldn’t handle yourself to the point where clara needed to watch you and together, you provided comfort for each other
it was about two months later when you were finally in the kitchen, helping clara make dinner for the remaining family members
“..how did you do it, clara?”
the running water hit her hands, her green eyes focused on her task
when she was done, she turned to the door connecting itself to the kitchen, smiling at the sight of evan and elizabeth on the floor playing with your child/pet
“there isn’t a day that passes where I’m not thinking of william or michael. i will always miss my boys and mourn them”
her smile directed itself towards you, her hand coming to cup your pretty face as a sign of affection, “but for you and the rest of our family, we need to become happy once more, as our husbands intended when they married us”
so you managed a sad smile and held clara’s hand in yours, grateful to have such a loving mother in law, “then let’s make the most of it”
