Never Mention It

Clocks ticking

Luke's POV
Oh look! Nothings new I couldn't sleep last night but this time I wasn't thinking about Julie. I was thinking about Bobby. I just wanna run into that house and scream into his face. He doesn't even know how much he hurt us- and I just wish he was able to see us, feel us...SO I CAN PUNCH- ok I need to calm down.
~~~
Julies POV
I wake up on a boring Monday morning and get ready for school. All I can think about is how my dads gonna react today. Is he gonna talk to me at all, is he gonna act normal? I don't know, but I definitely shouldn't have called him a loser last night
I walk down the stairs and see Carlos eating pancakes and my dad comes in from the garage
"Julie. Good morning"
"Morning" I grab a a pancake and walk to the door trying to avoid my dad and get to school as soon as possible.
"Julie, wait wee need to talk"
"Dad listen I'm sorry for saying loser last night just- just I was mad"
" I understand that but...your grounded"
"WHAT" I yell. I didn't do anything THAT wrong why is he grounding me?!
"Your grounded because 1. You yelled at me last night and 2. You lied to me. I don't know what's gotten into you Julie but your forbid to go out for the next 3 weeks!"
I didn't even reply and just walk straight out the door to the studio
"GUYS YOU WONT BELIVE WHAT HAPPENED- oh hi, who are you"
"Uh Julie this is Willie another ghost we've been talking to him and, we don't have good news"
~~~~~
An hour ago- Alex's POV
I'm walking around Hollywood boulevard hoping to bump into Willie again and I see him in an alley.
"Willie hey!"
"Alex hey! Um I actually been meaning to find you and talk to you after our whole talk about ghost stuff" his worried face is...worrying me
"Uh ya what's up?"
"You think we can go meet up with Luke and Reggie to, to talk to them?"
"Ya let's go" we both poof out and into the studio
"Willie! Hey dude what going on?" Luke says happily well Reggie fist bumps him. I'm happy the guys like Willie. He..kinda means a lot to me.
Willies POV
I really hate how I have to tell the guys this, especially Alex. If he doesn't complete his business I'll- I'll never see him again and...I think I like him- a lot.
"Ya so we need to talk about something called...unfinished business. So basically you guys came back as ghost for a reason...for a second chance. So basically something you guys regret or regret doing you have to make amends with it. And if you don't complete this fished business..you'll um- start getting these jolts and there just gonna be purple flashing lights in your chest. They hurt. A lot and when they get worse they drain out all the energy in you"
The guys are looking at me shocked and scared
"So what happens when all the energy in us is drained out" Reggie says as he tears up
"You just- disappear, your gonna forever"
"How do we know when we completed our unfinished business?" Luke says and stands up walking around the room
"You'll kinda just glow and fade into heaven or...ya know"
A girl that I don't recognize walks in and looks really mad. Oh wait, I think she's Julie
~~~~
Luke's POV
This- this is to much for me to handle right now and then, Julie walks in looking mad
"GUYS YOU WONT BELIEVE WHAT HAPPENED- oh hi, who are you?"
"Uh Julie this is Willie, another ghost. We've been talking to him and uh, we don't have good news...let's talk" I motion Julie to walk out the garage so I can tell her
I nervously rub the back of my neck and she's looking at me like I'm crazy
"Luke the suspense is killing me what going on?"
"Ok so....BASICALLY WE FOUND OUT WE HAVE UNFINISHED BUSINESS. THATS WHY WE CAME BACK AS GHOST AND IF WE DON'T COMPLETE THAT BUSINESS WERE GONNA DISAPPEAR OUT OF EXISTENCE- FOREVER" I blurt of really fast and I don't even know if she caught that
~~~~
Julies POV
what. the. f*ck
"Julie please say something" Luke looks at me scared
"I- I have to get to school" I start walking away
"WAIT JULIE, what happened to you?" He looks at me innocently like he didn't just announce huge news.
I roll my eyes and walk away almost crying.
~~~~
At school- Julies POV
"I don't know Flynn! He just put so much on me and then I feel so bad for them and I just wanna comfort them and then my dad grounds me and we have a gig this Friday and I can barely breathe!" I say well crying on the bathroom floor as Flynn holds me and wipes my tears
"Ok Jules listen, the guys really need to handle the whole unfinished business thing on there own cause it seems like they have to do that together. And with your dad just try to kiss up to him. If he asks you something answer happily. Put on a fake smile for him so he's totally confused ok?"
I laugh and Flynn helps me up
"Thank you bestie"
"Anytime, now get your butt to class!"
~~~~
Reggie POV
I've been trying to stay calm for the guys but really IM FALLING APART INSIDE. But I DO need to stay strong for them. Luke is stressed cause of Julie and Alex is more stressed cause of this ghost thing and I'm just here.
Then Julie walks in the door
"Where's Luke?" She asks not even saying hi to me
"Wow not even a 'hi reg how was your fantastic day after just finding out your gonna die a second time!"
Julie comes to sit next to me
"Sorry reg. Wanna talk?"
"No really it's ok, I should be the least of your worries"
"What?! Reggie i care about you a lot. I don't want you going through whatever your going through alone. I wanna help you be ok"
"It's just- i don't know I'm trying to stay calm for the guys cause I feel like if I stress out to it's gonna be a lot worse and it's really pulling me down"
"Reggie you really need to talk to the guys. I'm sure there gonna be there for you just like your there for them. There not that mean"
I laugh at Julie's 'not that mean' comment but I guess she's right
"Thank you Julie. I really wish I can hug you"
I start tearing up and Julie giggles and I can see the tears in her eyes to and then Luke poofs in
"Oh great you guys are crying" he whines
"And you have to I'm guessing?" Julie blurts out.
"No I haven't!" Luke says with a sniffle
"Ok time to lecture you to Luke, vamos"
Luke and Julie walk outside
~~~
Luke's POV
I walk outside with Julie and she just- SHE UNDERSTANDS ME TO WELL
"Ok I'm not taking no for an answer what's going on with you?"
"Julie really I'm fine"
"Luke if you don't tell me I'm going to find a way to hit you with a shoe!"
I guess I should tell her about TODAY and she kinda scares me.
"Um well- today it's- it's my birthday, my eighteenth..."
Julies look softens and she almost goes in to touch my shoulder but pulls back...cause you know
"Luke I- you should've told me. Or the guys"
"The guys know they just didn't bring it up much. They told me happy birthday but they know it makes upset. Birthdays haven't been really my thing. My parents always get me a cake and presents but I just didn't like celebrating cause some fight always went down. I went to go visit them today...they were uh- eating cake"
She pulls a little smile
"Well that's something. They love you luke. I know it and I bet they feel so much more closer to you cause of the song."
"Thank you again for that, it was perfect"
I reach out to touch her hand but- i just go right through her
She turns her head to the sky and sighs
"This is an interesting little relationship you and have" I give her a little smirk and she giggles. OMG HER GIGGLE IS JUST- everything..like her. Omg. I really love her.
" oh by the way what were you gonna tell me and the guys earlier when you stormed into the studio?"
"Oh um. My dad grounded me."
I look at her wide eyed "we have a gig this Friday though!"
"I know. I'll find a way to get out. I promise."
I give her a nod and turn to the sunset again
"I'm gonna head inside, we'll figure everything out Luke...I promise."
She gives me the cutest smile and walks away
Woah
