Save Me From Myself (NathanxMikhal)

[lucianluna]

Nathan went inside with them and looked around for a table to sit at while Miki ordered the pizza.

[fearless]

Levi giggled and took Nathans hand to lead him to his favorite table. "We sit here..." he told him softly.

[lucianluna]

Nathan glanced down at the boy when he took his hand and then followed him to the table. "Oh, ok. You guys must eat here alot. That must mean the pizzas good huh?" He sat down at the table and watched Mikhal while he ordered the pizza.

[fearless]

Levi smiled then nodded, "Yes...I love pizza and Miki let's me get it once a month..." He noticed Nathan watching Miki, "Do you like my brother?" He asked seriously.

[lucianluna]

"once a month huh? Must be special when you go out for pizza then?" He then looked shocked at the boys question. "yeah, I guess I do, but I doubt he doesn't feel the same way. Guess I'm destined to be alone."

[fearless]

Levi smiled, "He might like you...you have to ask..." He smiled when his brother came back and handed him a roll of quarters, "I got you ten dollars worth ok? You may go play." Levi grinned then kissed his brothers cheek, "Thank you Miki...I love you..." Levi was running to the games soon after as Miki sat down.

[lucianluna]

Nathan watched while Mikhal came over and gave his brother quarters then watched the boy run to the video games. "Your brother's a cute kid. You've done a good job raising him. He's lucky to have you around."

[fearless]

Miki smiled weakly, "Yea...thank you..." he told him softly. "Please don't tell him I work at that club alright? He thinks I work at a store..." He hated lying to his brother, but at the club he made more.

[lucianluna]

"Of course not. He doesn't need to know about that place. he's to young, but you do know the secret will eventually come out somehow and he'll be mad you didn't tell him the truth right?"

[fearless]

Miki nodded, "When he is older I will tell him..." he told him now. "As you said he is young..."

[lucianluna]

"Good, it would be better hearing it from you instead of somebody else. Yes he is. So how long have you been caring for him?"

[fearless]

Miki looked to him, "Four years," he admitted softly. "Our parents died...and I had to fight to keep him."

[lucianluna]

"Does he remember his parents at all. It's sad he had to have his parents die when he was still young. Most single guys probably wouldn't step up and take him in, his lucky to have you for a brother."

[fearless]

Miki shook his head, "No he doesn't. I tell him stories about them...and we have pictures but that is all he has to go by. I took him in because that is what my parent's will asked me to do. They have no sibilings, their parents are both dead....no really close friends to ask...it was just me. I did not want him going into an orphanage or a foster home when he had me to take care of him."

[lucianluna]

"Yeah, I probably would have done the same thing if it was me. I wouldn't be able to let a brother go to some stranger either if he had me to care for him." He looked towards the arcade where the kid was then back to Mikhal.
