Escape (UNDERGOING EDITING)

Crazy

I was awoken by being shaken gently as I groaned. I opened my eyes to the beautiful blue ones I have come to know so well. I sighed contently before I remembered why he was still in the same clothes he was in last night. "He didn't come back with you, did he?"I chocked out.

I could feel the tears building up all over and slowly worked towards sobbing again. He sighed and picked me up placing me onto his lap. "I looked all night. I saw no sign of him or his hair."He said chuckling softly. He kissed my forehead and I exhaled shakily trying to gather myself. I wiped my eyes and kissed his jaw.

"God I'm a mess, sorry. "I sniffled. "It's okay. We're all hurting right now."Luke said softly. "We have to go to your Mom's today don't we? I haven't even started to pack."I said rubbing my face with my hands.

"We don't have to go if you're not up to it." He said. "No. I want to go and get away from all of this for a while."I said stretching before standing up and going to my closet. "I'll go tell the others then. The boys might want to come too since they haven't seen my mum in a while."Luke called.

I yelled back an okay and then found what I was looking for. I pulled the suitcase from the shelf and began throwing random clothes and shoes into it. Once I finished filling the suitcase to the top, I went to the bathroom and showered quickly. I took all my bathroom necessities with me as I exited the bathroom and walked back to my closet throwing them in the case as well zipping it up. Since his mom lived what, two or three hours away? I chose leggings, a red flannel that was on my floor, and black vans wanting to be comfortable for the ride.

I threw everything on and then pulled the suitcase out into the main part of my room and packed up makeup. I put it into my purse figuring I would just do my makeup on the way or before we went into his house just incase I fell asleep.

I threw my hair up in a messy bun as I walked over to my nightstand grabbing my phone and charger. I threw them into my purse as well. I took my large suitcase and wheeled it our of my room and down the long hallway. Ashton or Calum were no where to be seen so I took the elevator that we had. I stepped in and pressed down patiently waiting to reach the bottom.

I exited as it reached the main floor and stepped out making my way into the living room where I heard the tv on only to see Michael Clifford laying on the couch flipping through the channels. I let my suitcase drop to the floor and ran over to him. "Michael, oh my god you came back!"I yelled. He looked at me just as I went to hug him he was gone. My hand shot to mouth as I looked around for any sign of him being there but found nothing. I imagined the whole thing.

I slowly collapsed to the floor and broke down but no one came to find me. I was grateful for that in a way so they didn't have to see me like this. Just when I was wiping my tears And settling down I heard footsteps behind me. I looked up and it was my dad. "Surprise."He said smiling down at me. At this point, I had no idea what was real and what wasn't. His expression changed as soon as he noticed the state I was in and held his hands out to help me up. I touched his face lightly and thankfully for my own sanity he didn't vanish into thin air.

I sighed in relief and hugged him."Michael. he-he left dad."I said quietly."Your brother told me. I was able to sign out of the hospital today so I called Calum right away hoping I would catch you before you and Luke left."He said. "I think I'm going insane. Get those asylum papers ready."I said into his shirt. "Why's that?"He chuckled rubbing my back.

"I just hallucinated that Michael was sitting on the couch flipping through the tv channels like he always did when he was bored. When I went to him and tried to hug him, he faded away and disappeared."I said shaking. "Well I can assure you aren't going to end up in an asylum. Sometimes when you go through a traumatic experience, have a lack of sleep, or even if someone is on your mind you think you see them everywhere."He said calmly.
