Luke's POV

When I woke up the next morning I noticed that the sun was still rising so I thought it would be nice to watch the sunrise as I never got to before, all because I never woke up early enough. I grabbed my keys, phone, and wallet, and walked out the door to the park nearby. When I arrived I saw that not many people were here. I took advantage of it and got my phone out and started to capture the sunrise in photographs, so I could show Mikey later. Obviously when he wakes up because I'm not going to be the one to wake him up in the morning, he gets pissed off when someone wakes him up before 10 o'clock in the morning. I didn't just take pictures of the sunrise I also walked around the lake and fed the little ducklings. I took pictures of the ducklings too because they were cute.

A little bit later a lot of photos were taken I looked at the time on my phone and when I saw the time I realized that I've been here at the park for over an hour and a half. I made my way back to the apartment, stopping for a cup of coffee and also getting one for Michael to give him when he wakes up because I'm a good friend. The whole getting coffee only took 5 minutes since the cafe wasn't very busy, I was grateful for that because I really didn't feel like dealing with people right now. The rest of the walk back consisted of me just thinking of songs I could write and somehow they get connected to Michael.

I didn't even realize when my thoughts changed to studing every small detail of him even though he wasn't here so I could just stare at him. He's just so hot. Those amazing green eyes of his that glisten in the sunlight like emeralds. His hair, I love his hair it's so soft and colorful. God I just want to run my fingers through it everyday. His pretty smile it can make the whole room light up. His beautiful laugh that brings a smile to my face whenever I hear it. Also his lips they just look so fucking kissable but I know I won't get to be the one that gets to kiss them. My mind wandered to a place it shouldn't be in, and wondered what it would be like with those lips of his on my di- I really need to clear my head of these thoughts.

"Damn I really like him more than I thought I did" I said to no one in particular. I thought this was only a small crush but now I don't think it ever was. I just can't get him off my mind. He's the only person I've ever felt this strongly for in my whole life. I have a crush on my best friend and he doesn't even know about it. My mind was in a lot of different places that it didn't even register that I'm standing in front of our apartment door.

As I walk in the door I sit my stuff down and head to Michael's room to see if he's awake yet. When I walked into his room I saw that he was still sleeping so I just sat his coffee down on the nightstand and left the room. I made my way back to my room and once I walked in I picked up my guitar and started strumming the all to familiar chords of Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol. While playing the chords I quietly sang the lyrics.

We'll do it all
Everything
On our own

We don't need
Anything
Or anyone

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Just as I was getting into the song I stop playing because I thought I heard footsteps walking down the hall towards my room. When I stopped playing I couldn't hear any footsteps so I continued playing.

I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel

Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life
