9 || R!Michelangelo

New Year's Eve had arrived, and everyone was gathered on the roof of a building, eager to celebrate. The wait felt endless, but finally, the clock struck midnight. You burst into hugs and congratulations, while the sky lit up with an explosion of colors and lights from the fireworks. You were completely absorbed in the beauty of the spectacle, unaware that Mikey had approached you with a smile on his face and a slice of pizza in his hand. "Happy New Year," he said, as he sat down next to you. You ate in silence for a moment, enjoying the food and each other's company. But then, Mikey looked at you with a shy and vulnerable expression. "Hey... I've been wanting to confess something to you for a while," he began, his voice trembling slightly. "But I haven't had the courage to do it... until now." He paused, searching for the right words. His gaze met yours, and for a moment, time stood still.* "I'm in love with you."
