What Next?

"I love you baby. And I'm sorry." He cooed.

"I don't know what your sorry for, but save it..."
He would be sorry when either Mike or Rosa was dead because the bitch couldn't quit.

"Mike, please, don't be like this. Isn't it something that I'm choosing you over her? Doesn't that count for anything?"

"Zack baby, I dont feel good right now...the last thing I want to talk about is Rosa or my fucked up life."

Zack sighed.
"Well I love you. I love you more than her. Just know that."

"Okay Zack....I know..." Mike sighed and turned on his side, he still felt like shit.
"Zack, please go get Maryse for me and wait outside."

Zack reluctantly walked away.
"He wants you." He grumbled at Maryse as he passed.

Maryse went into the room and sat beside him. She was not stupid, she kinda knew what this was about.
"You know I love you....But we can't be friends anymore...It upset Zack and Maryse....sweetheart,'" Mike growled to himself, he was being so damn sensitive and nice. "I don't want him to hurt like I am when Rosa is around so please..." Maryse sighed but smiled and kissed his cheek.
"Okay, I want you to be happy. Ill be leave you alone but...you have my number if you need me." Mike pouted. "Im not weak..."
"I know, but just in case."
She left with her head held high. She got her things and went to go tell Zack she was leaving the hospital.

"Why are you leaving?" He wondered aloud.

She smiled and came back. She hugged Zack and kissed his cheek.
"He wants me gone because I upset you. He doesn't want you to feel like he does when Rosa is around. But don't tell him I told you. He doesn't want you to know." She winked at him before turning and walking off.

Zack gave a small smile. Mike did care...
As hard as it may be, he had to do the same thing Mike had done for him. Next time he spoke to Rosa he would make her leave.

And that is why Maryse paused.
"Zack....don't make it obvious if you tell her to go. Mike does not want to force you."

"I won't make it too obvious. But I will tell her to go. I owe him that much."

"You don't owe him. That is the point, why he didn't tell you what he was doing. If you let her go, he wants it to be because you want to. Right now you feel like you have too. Mike loves me as a close friends but he let me go because he WANTED you to not have to worry and be upset."

"I know Maryse. But I WANT to, because he did it for me."

"Zack....You were just going to have her around again...Just wait."
Maryse sighed and shook her head.

Zack sighed.
"We'll see." He did not feel like arguing.

She waved as she walked away and left the hospital.
Mike was in his room looking at some scars on his arms. He was cold and lonely, just how he always was. He couldn't sleep right now, he wanted to but his body ached.

Zack slowly walked back into the room.
"Hey baby..."

Mike looked up and gave a small, warm, smile.
"Hey Zack."

"You feeling any better?" He asked, sitting down beside him.

"No....If anything I feel worse." Mike sighed and curled into a shivering ball.

Zack frowned and hugged him tightly.
"Poor thing..."

Mike pouted.
"No.....I am not a poor thing, I ma evil and twisted, I cant be poor."
He was though, anyone with a childhood like that was poor.

"Yes you are Mikey." Zack frowned. "At least at the moment."
