Mikael

CALIFORNIA🇺🇸📍

You had a boyfriend, Nathan. He was the sweetest guy to you. He was handsome, kind, caring, sweet, smart, all the positive attributes you could name, up until he made friends with the wrong group of people. He began to be the complete opposite of all those qualities.

He was always drunk, barely had time for you, always partying, you'd even began to silently question his loyalty.

Nathan had a best friend, Mikael. Mikael was a quiet person, but very handsome.You and Mikael barely knew each other but you were kind of friends. Mikael noticed when Nathan began to change but chose to stay silent.

One night in the summer, you and Nathan went to a party together. It was one with him, his friends, your friends, and some random others. It was a huge pool party. You tried to hang out with him during the party but he'd ignore you or make you feel stupid. Mikael watched silently, kind of annoyed by Nathan's behaviour.

You chose not to cause a scene as you watched Nathan flirt with one girl or the other by the Tiki bar.

You quietly made your way over to Nathan when he was alone to confront him Calmly but of course, he caused a scene and yelled at you and made you feel really bad. You almost cried. But you decided to hold your peace. It surely couldn't get worse right? wrong.

You decided to drink a little, wanting to feel lightheaded.

Your friends dragged you to play spin the bottle. Where it was in dare or kiss.You really didn't want to. Nathan was down, everyone pressured you into it. Mikael, as usual, watched silently, as if smelling what was to come.

The bottle spinnd around a few times, it was fun, till it landed on Nathan and a blonde girl, Bella. Bella dared Nathan to kiss her. and Nathan didn't hesitate, like as if you weren't his girlfriend. he didn't even flinch and kissed her. You felt your eyes start to burn as you watched them.

Even everyone knew Nathan had messed up as they fell silent. Nathan still had the audacity to tell you to chill out that it was just a game. You got fed up and left the party, crying, drunk, hurt and angry. You walked for a few minutes before taking a stop on a curb in an empty street, crying silently.

That was when you heard a voice, Mikael.

"hey" he said simply as he sat down next to you, quietly and without fuss. He let you cry for some time longer before continuing. "You okay?"
