Ashton's POV(WHATT¿)
"Michael, dude. You need to get over her." I pat his shoulder, "It's been a week and you've barely gotten out of bed. Let alone showered." I lifted up one of the dozen pizza boxes that laid on the ground. "When's the last time you've had real food?"

He groaned in response, "Pizza is real food." He opened it and took a piece out, and ate a large bite out of it. I slapped it out of his hand. His eyes grew wide. "Did you just-"

"Michael, me and the guys miss you. At least just come with us to the club. You've been moping around. It's time to get up and spend time with us. We never have bro time anymore."

I got a small laugh from him, "Bro time?" A did-you-just-call-it-that look was on his face followed with a faint smile.

"Yes bro time. Come on. Get up and shower." I pushed him off his bed, loud thud hit the ground. "Oops." I ran out of the room before he could get after me.

"I'm gonna kill you Irwin!"

Michael's POV
I had little to no motivation to actually go to the club with the guys, but Ashton makes a good point. It's been forever since I've been out with the guys having a couple drinks.

After a long, necessary shower, I got dressed quickly; attempting to ignore the We the Kings shirt laying on the floor, in its original position.

The lads were at the bar already, awaiting my arrival. "Hey Ladies." I said as they all looked up at a finally "alive" me. At least on the outside. With a grin and a fresh face, I think I pulled it off.

"Wow, I thought you'd never get out of bed." Luke hit my arm in a way that was supposed to be playful, but actually hurt.

"What the hell?" I put my hand over the wounded area.

"Aww I'm sorry, did I hurt Mikey?" He had a little pout on his face.

"Shut up Lucas." I mumbled.

"Dude, lighten up a bit. Just because your girl left you doesn't mean you have to make this miserable." He put his hands up in defense.

"Luke." Calum gave him a warning look. "Mike he didn't mean it that way."

I unclenched my fists, unaware they were tightened up. "No he's right. I'll "loosen up"." I added air quotes for "emphasis."

"And next up we have a small band named." The petite lady read off the papers in her hand. "5 Seconds of Summer."

I choked on the beer in my hand. "We're performing?" My eyes were wide.

"Fuck yeah!" Calum yelled.

Ashton slapped the back of his head, "Don't swear."

"Sorry mum." Calum ran off towards the back of the stage, Ashton chasing after him.

"Let's go." I groaned.

I could tell that Luke was getting annoyed with my attitude, but I didn't mind. I was still sulking and this beer wasn't doing anything.

Our performance was awful. Okay my performance was awful. I kept screwing up the chorus and Luke seriously was fed up with me.

"What the hell is wrong with you? Can you not fucking play?" Luke pushed my shoulder.

"Fuck off." I muttered to him.

"No Mike. I think that we deserve better than what you're giving us."

"Do you know what it's like to have one thing you love in your life, just fall off the face of the earth? Do you know what it feels like to have your heart feel like it's shattering every time her name is mentioned? Or not being able to sleep because for all I know she could hate me? Huh?"

"N-no."

"So fuck off." I said before taking a shot of vodka.

"Michael." Calum put his hand on my shoulder. "Dude you need to move on. You need to find someone else."

"No. You guys don't get it."

"Then explain it to us." Ashton joined into the conversation.

"She is-was my everything. I'm not saying the band wasn't important, but she was something I didn't want to lose. She gave me hope. And I felt like I couldn't spend a day without her. And when she just got up and left and didn't come back. It stung. I loved her more than anything. The way she smiled, and a little dimple would appear. And how she laughed, it was just contagious. Her jokes were always lame, but I'd laugh along with her because I couldn't help myself. Her constant energy, I swear she never slept. The little things so does; like putting our toothbrushes never to each other so they wouldn't get lonely, or the way she looked up at me with her big bright eyes, and you could see all they were filled with was love. And I-I don't get that anymore."

"Go get her." Luke mumbled.

"What?"

"Go get her. Tell her that. She'll have to take you back."

I ran up and hugged Luke tightly, "Thank you."
