When the Subway car detached from the train Milo was prepared.

When the Subway car went down the wrong track Milo was prepared.

When the Subway car started rolling and tossing it's occupants around, Milo was prepared.

Milo was, in theory, prepared for almost every disaster the Murphy Law threw at him. His bag held bandages, a GPS, multiple maps, some water purifying tablets, multiple tools, boots, helmets, ropes, whistles, snorkeling gear, you name it. But really nothing could prepare for one of the worst disasters of all.

Emotions.

Milo was usually a happy and rather carefree guy. After all, one would find it easier to focus on his surroundings while expressing positive emotions rather than expressing negative ones. And it wasn't that Milo likedhis constant dangers, he was just really good at pretending and acting. He easily convinced people around him.

Love was a danger for Milo. Many teenagers thought love as a positive and wonderful experience, but Milo saw it as a dangerous thing. Milo was a little afraid of getting too close to anyone, in fear of getting his loved ones hurt or worse. So, when he had developed feelings for the newest member of "The Murphy Squad" as Melissa so elegantly named it, Milo panicked. And after a long, long night of scenarios and plotting, he decided to take the best course of action was to ignore whatever feelings he had for Zack. Yep best thing to do.

Now, Milo was strapped onto one of the poles of the Subway car, watching passively as Melissa and Zack were suspended in the air, as the car rolled and bounced it's way away from the tracks. this went on until the car slowed to a stop, but just when he thought the car was done, it gave a final lurch forward, throwing Zack towards him.

It seemed to go in slow motion. Zack's face was heading straight for his, and Milo closed his eyes waiting for a forehead in the nose or something of the sort. Instead of the brutal hardness of a forehead, his mouth connected with something soft.

As Melissa whooped in the background, Milo opened his eyes, and was greeted by Zack's ever darkening face, and Zack's lips on his own.

It was like he was floating and drowning at once. He wanted to embrace Zack and push him away all at once. Neither of which he could do, considering that his arms were still held by the tied rope. Milo wasn't even sure he WANTED to do either.

In his flustered state, Milo noticed that absolutely nothing was going wrong. No disasters, no broken things, nothing.

Zack suddenly pulled away, panting and muttering apologies.

"I'm so sorry! Um, sorry. I guess this isn't the time to confess that I-"

Milo decided to just throw everything out the window and threw himself at Zack, placing his lips once again on Zack's. Zack's chocolate brown eyes widened and them closed as his hands wrapped around Milo's waist.

Milo made a decision that day, and it was to not ever ignore his feelings ever again, and to not let Murphy's Law ruin this for him.
