"Lost myself trying to please everyone else. Now I'm losing everyone while I'm finding myself."

"Hey"Chris said, as her and Julie made their way up the drive way, seeing Luke leaning against their post. 

"Hey" Luke said back looking at the two making Chris sigh and regret a little on what she did. "I'm sorry for overstepping."

The boy just shook his head as he stepped closer to the girl. "No, I... I just had to leave. That was..."

"You don't have to say anything."

"Yeah, I do. Uh, I didn't have many regrets in my life except for running out on my parents, especially my mom, which you already knew, but thank you." Luke said looking mainly at Chris, seeing as Julie was mostly watching the two interact. 

Chris sighed. "You helped me and my sister feel more connected to our mom, so I wanted to do the same thing for you." 

"That was perfect." Luke said back a sincere smile on his face. Chris glanced down and saw him holding his hand out towards her, and she happily took it, making the two smile at each other as Luke rubbed his thumb on the girls knuckles. "This is an interesting little relationship you and I have." 

Julie feeling a little awkward did a fake cough, hating how she ruined the cute moment between the two, but raised her hand. "I just remembered to tell you both that Flynn said the video that are dad made is trending on YouTube." 

Glancing at the 90's boy, Chris couldn't help but laugh when he gave the two a confused look. "That's a good thing, that means people love our music." She said patting the boy on the shoulder with her other hand. "We'll definitely be getting calls from managers now." 

The two girls smiled at each other, not noticing the sad look that Luke had in his eyes, knowing that he was about to cause some issues for not only him, Alex and Reggie but for Chris as well. 

"There's something I have to tell you." 

"Oh, ok?" Chris questioned, both girls attention on the boy now as he let out a sigh. "We figured out that we have unfinished business. That's why we came back as ghosts."

"Oh, what is it?" Julie walked forward, getting a bad feeling from the boy now as she saw him squeeze her sisters hand.

"We have to play the show we never got to play."

"At the Orpheum?" Chris said, not understanding on why this was as important. The boys had forever to play it now since they were dead, meaning they had awhile till they had to necessarily say goodbye to them. "That makes sense."
