“Steve, you can’t stay in my dorm for the whole day,” Michaele called out in front of the door with a small frown on his face. “Yes I can!” Steve replied back, Michaele could practically hear the sadness and despair in his voice.
The duo both stayed quiet until Michaele decided to break the silence. “Can you at least open the door for me?” Michaele asked hesitantly.
Silently, but quickly, the door opened and out came Steve tightly hugging Michaele with tears in his eyes.
Michaele swiftly picks up Steve and hums calmly. “You can vent if you want, love,” he said quietly. “The poor kitten…” Steve complained somberly.
Michaele looked at him and took him back inside his room. “Go take a shower and I'll meet you here, okay?”
Steve nods slowly as he grabs some clothes from Michaele’s closet. “Okay. Love you,” Steve said. Michaele chuckled despite the situation and replied, “Love you too.”

After Steve took a shower, the two were now cuddling on the plush, queen-sized bed.
The four posts connected to the bed frame were decorated and slithering with fake flowers and vines with fake, plush thorns. The ceiling was covered with cotton and neon lights, making it feel like you’re high of sorts.
Steve has always loved this room when he first saw it. Well, he got flashbanged the first time, but it was so relieving to see the bright, calming colors. He was so close to falling asleep in Micha’s arms until…”Hey, don’t do that!” Steve exclaimed in shock and disbelief.
In response, Michaele laughed in amusement. “You can’t blame me! You were so sad like a stray animal,” Michaele said, defending himself as he kept gently and quickly brushing his fingers across and around Steve’s waist.
Steve begins to laugh despite him going into a position where he could easily get away from Michaele. Michaele began to laugh as well as he dropped himself on Steve and began to tickle the short bastard from both sides. Steve laughed as he said lovingly, “Stop it, you cliche asshole!”
Michaele’s laughter began to subside as he stopped and got up. “Now I know how to make you happy. As well as hear your beautiful laughter,” Michaele said teasingly.
Steve’s face was bright red as he pushed his stupid partner away from him. “Shut up, you bastard,” Steve grumbled.
Michaele laughed as he grabbed Steve and threw them backwards into the bed. Steve gasped in shock as he fell back. Michaele’s giggles fell silent as he yawned and said, “G’night, love. Sleep well.”
Steve hummed tiredly as he said, “Good night, Micha. Don’t let the bed bugs bite.” Michaele chuckled as he brought Steve closer to him, their bodies fitting perfectly with each other.
They slept peacefully that night, with each other.
