Moonlight
That i ain't happy
I ain't too happy
*
It was midnight and Michael got woken up by the sound of a piano and someone singing in the appartment next to him.
"It's 3 A.M and the moonlight's testing me.."
It was a pure but soft voice. Michael gave in that the person who was singing had a very good and calming voice. He kinda liked it..
"Now i wish we never met.. 'cause you're too hard to forget while i'm cleaning up your mess..i know he's taking off your dress"
Michael could hear he sang with real emotions. It was so good that he could hear the pain in his voice. He kinda felt bad for the person singing and playing piano. Still there wasn't anything he could do but to listen to the person his wonderfull voice.
"But if i ask you if you love me i hope you lie, lie, lie, lie..lie-to me.."
The voice cracked a bit at the end and it still sounded perfect. Michael could listen to his voice for hours, despite the fact that he would be awake at 4 A.M. He would be awake all night for this. He didn't even know who was singing, he had never met his neighbour. He kinda felt bad for not even saying hi. Michael was just so busy with his own work that he forgot about everything else.
"Singing Li-li-li-lie, li-li-li-li-li-lie
Li-li-li-li-li-lie, li-li-li-li-li-lie"
Michael sat up and listened carefully. He knew the person singing was breaking into tiney pieces slowly. So Michael decided to go talk to him and well..finnaly meet his neighbour.
"and I know that you don't!"
The person sang in frustration. He started to get angry. Michael could hear the loud taps from the piano aswell.
"But if i ask you if you loVe me! I HOPE YOU LI-LI-LI-LIE!..."
It was silent for a bit and Michael quickly got up. He then heard little sobs coming from next door. His heart sunk into his chest and he quickly putted on his shirt and glasses.
"Lie to me!"
The person broke into a million pieces while hitting the wrong notes and the piano made a horrible sound.
Michael rushed out his appartment and knocked on the door next to his. No one opened, he probably was caught up into his own feelings. Michael knocked once again.
"..uhmm" Michael hesitated, unsure of what he had to say. He wasn't really a so called 'social' person.
"Hello!?" Michael said, his voice echoing trough the halls.
It was silent for a bit, only the sobs were being heard.
"..The d-door is open" he heard the person that was just singing beautifully and then breaking into pieces seconds ago say.
Michael opened the door and saw a picture frame that was shattered laying face down on the floor. He walked slowly towards the end of the hall making sure not to step in the shattered glass.
When he came to the end of the hall way he saw a guy with his head laying on the keys of his piano and his blond curly locks covering his face. His arms were resting underneath his head. Michael didn't know what he would say to make the guy feel better. He didn't even know why he was sad, so he checked the situation that was going on.
The guy had a glass of what seemed like vodka on the headboard of his piano. That means he drank something. The picture frame in the hallway was shattered...
"So uhmm.." Michael started.
"I know we've never met n' stuff but uhmm i just uhmm..i heard your singing just a few minutes back and you sounded absolutely amazing and then you..well you broke down and i-i want to help you" Michael stuttered, his anxiety going crazy by now. He nervously rubbed his hands together.
"Also, i'm Michael i live next door to you and i never came to say hi and" Michael sighed "shit". Michael said when he got the blond guy to finnaly look up at him. The guy had the most beautiful blue eyes he had ever seen.
"Okay so i'm not good with these situations but i just.." Michael hesitated. He always did and he hated himself for it. It was his anxiety which caused him to do so.
"I just want to help you so..yeah" Michael whispered out the last part.
"...well Michael" the guy said and sat up straight wiping a few tears away.
"I'm Luke..and i..i think you're really nice" Luke said and looked down at his glass of vodka shyly before taking another shot.
"Would you like some?" Luke asked softly while helding his now empty glass of vodka up.
Michael shook his head "no thanks" he said queitely.
It was an awkward silence for a bit untill Luke spoke up again.
"Y'know..i'm not good with these things either Michael.." Luke said and sighed putting his glass down on the headboard of the piano.
"Then let's talk about why you're so upset" Michael said.
"..you'd really want that?" Luke asked.
"Yeah, i don't like it when people are sad" Michael responded.
"Alright..well uhh.." Luke sighed and sat down on the piano bench and looked at his feet.
"I got a call today in the morning from my-now ex-boyfriend" Luke said and Michael nodded for him to continue.
"Uhmm..i'm not gonna go in details but basically what happened was the fact that he cheated on me and talked shit about me behind my back!" Luke said raising his voice while he got up again.
"I gave him everything! I gave him money when he needed it! But most importantly...i gave him my love!" Luke said and started tearing up again.
"But no no no no! It's not good enough..i'm not good enouGh!" His voice cracked.
"Y'know most people just hang out with me because of my money..and i hate it! Cause-" he stopped himself and wipped his tears away.
"Because i'm lonely.." Luke said lastely.
"I need to metaphorically 'buy' people to hang out with me or even like me, like me for who i am and-"
"..i like you" Michael said softly, cutting Luke off. The sound of Michael's voice beaming trough Luke's appartment made Luke a lot calmer.
"Really?" Luke asked.
Michael nodded a smile appearing on his face.
"I like you too Mikey" Luke looked shocked for a second. "Can i call you Mikey? Sorry that was rude wasn't it?" Luke started to panick. He didn't wanna scare Michael away. He felt so insecure and left alone for the last few weeks.
"It's okay..you can call me Mikey" Michael responded and giggeled. A smile crept up on Luke's face for the first time in forever.
Before Michael knew it Luke flew into his arms and Michael stumbeled back. Michael lost his balance and fell down with Luke on top of him.
"Thank you..Mikey" Luke whispered and continued hugging Michael.
Michael was a little confused and adjusted his glasses. "Ah-uhmm sure" Michael said and wrapped his arms around Luke. He knew Luke had drunken alcohol so that's why the sudden reaction, he didn't mind tho.
And that's how they stayed together for a while. Luke wrapped up in Michael's arms and Michael holding Luke with his whole world. Michael had never felt so..comfortable with a person in his life untill he found out he had a neighbour with beautiful hair and eyes. A neighbour who was kind and could sing like an angel.
Luke liked Michael, he was friendly and cute. He also knew Michael didn't wanna be in his presence because he had a lot of money. Michael didn't even knew Luke before this night. Michael cared for Luke when they didn't even knew each other untill now..
Luke liked Michael and Michael liked Luke.
