Misfit

Drew laughed and smiled sweetly at how Mike reacted to his words. He placed a kiss on his forehead.

"You know....I don't want to die anymore."
He sniffled and held Drew's hand tightly.

"Ya better not." Drew said. "Then ya wouldn't have all this." He punctuated the word this by gesturing to his large build and kissing his bicep.

Mike laughed.
"Your an idiot. But you are a sexy idiot." He paused. "Im cold."

"Me too... alright this is really corny and cliche but here." Drew smiled as he slid off his hoodie and put it on Mike over the hospital gown.

Mike just grinned at him. This was the happiest he had been in.....forever.
"I was going for a hug or something."
He nuzzled the hoddie and inhaled Drew's masculine cent.
"See now you might not get this back.

"I'll hug you too." Drew smirked. "And It's alright. You can have it." Drew chuckled.

Mike scooted over on the bed. "Come lay with me." He patted the spot, hoping he hadn't just made Drew uncomfortable.

Drew gave a small smile and sat laid down in the bed. This was a bit awkward but he didn't mind.

Mike blushed and cuddled up to Drew. He was sort of waiting for rejection.

Drew fidgeted a bit uncomfortably. But he wrapped an arm around Mike's waist and kissed his neck softly.

"A-Am I making you uncomfortable?" Mike questioned, not wanting to ruin everything.

"It's just a bit weird. I've never really cuddled with another guy before. I'm fine though." Drew smiled.

"Me either I just............I like you, I feel safe with you." He sighed and he feel like a stupid girl, meaning he felt like Hannah.

Drew smiled.
"I like you too. I want you to feel safe with me. I won't let anything hurt you."

"You have proved that."
Mike grinned. Drew had taken on his father and Levi and his friends all for him. He felt special.

"Mike... whenever you get out of here... would you want to stay at my place?" Drew asked hoping this wasn't too much. "I wouldn't pressure you or anything like that but... the doctor said another incident like this and you'll probably die. I can't chance your dad hurting you again..."

"Drew, he hurts me every day and night. I doubt I can, he likes to keep me around as his punching bag and im his kid so if he wants me he can get me." Mike's eyes show with pain.
"But I would want to, I would want to be able to feel safe and no always be so-scared that I could die today."

Drew frowned and nodded. He knew it wasn't Mike's fault but he felt rejected. God, he felt stupid for even asking.
"Mike... what if I could prove he's hurting you. What if I got evidence and brought it to the police?"

"What if he says you did it? What if they dont believe me? He WILL kill me if that happens and they dont do anything." He buried his head into the crook of Drew's neck. "I wanna be with you, I dont wanna be beat every night." He whimpered.

"I'm pretty good with cameras and stuff. I could put a hidden one in your room... it'd record when he hurts you. Then I could show the police and he'd be taken away."

Mike nodded. "Yeah....lets do that."
He wanted to go stay with Drew and be safe.

Drew smiled.
"As soon as they let you go home."

"Yeah...."
Two days later Mike was sent home. He let Drew come over to install the camera while his father was at work.

Drew began panicking as he and Mike heard the front door slam shut. His father was home.
"Damnit." Drew muttered as he just finished installing the camera.
Footsteps were coming up the stairs.
"Shit, bye Mike." Drew pecked his lips, and grabbed the tools he had been using. He tossed them out the window before hopping out himself. Just as he disappeared the door to Mike's room opened.
