~ALANA~

It's been a couple of days and Michael has been completely AWOL. I tried calling him to make amends but eventually gave up on it....On him.

Luke and I have been getting on surprisingly well since the day he basically confessed his love for me, although I could have done without him beating the shit out of my bestfriend while doing it.

I'm not really sure where Luke and I stand. We kiss all the time yet he hasn't asked me to be his girlfriend. I'm not too worried about it because Ashton told me to expect him to ask soon. They are like bestfriends so he obviously knows Luke better than I know him.

"ALANA! Come here!" Luke yells from downstairs.

I make my way down stairs and am greeting with a warm embrace from Luke. The room erupts in 'awes' and wolf whistles. I pull away from Luke to see almost all of our friends sitting around the fireplace.

It was Calum, Destinee, Ashton, Ashley, Luke, and I. Luke thought it would be a grand idea to have a game night.

"Aww Lukey, you invited our friends." I smile playfully slapping his chest. I walked over to where everyone was comfortably sat and take a seat next to destinee.

It was nice seeing everyone getting along, it was almost like Luke and I built a bridge between everyone and we were all magically getting along; I couldn't help but feel a void without Michael here.

Luke seemed to notice this and wrapped an arm around me as we started up the game of monopoly.

"HA! I win!" I scream at the top of my lungs.

"You cheated!" Ashton shouts throwing all of his money on the floor. Ashley attempts to comfort Ashton as he starts throwing things on the floor.

Calum and Destinee were too busy making out to even notice the noise.

"Sorry Ashton is breaking things, Luke." Ashley says grabbing Ashton's bicep and pulling him back down to her level. He smiled at her and kissed her lips making her giggle. Ashton then pulled Ashley onto his lap and kept kissing her bringing the couple into a full fledged make out session with roaming hands.

Luke and I looked to our left and Destinee and Calum hadn't even come up for air. Then to our right where Ashton and Ashley were still enjoying each others faces very much.

Luke shrugged and pulled me onto his lap.

"I'm bored babe." I say throwing my hands up dramatically. Making all the couples in the room chill out with their face sucking for a few moments. Luke picks me up and throws me over his shoulder and I squeal.

"Follow me!" Luke says to the others as we make our way downstairs to his gaming room.

I was shocked to see a bunch of instruments sat around.

"Cal you wanna play?" Luke says to Calum who was gripping tightly onto Destinee's waist.

We all urged Calum to say yes and he finally gave in to our wishes.

"Sure mate."

Calum picked up a bass guitar and Luke grabbed his electric guitar. They started playing a familiar tune. "I miss you" by Blink-182. They sounded really good singing and soon enough Ashton joined in on the drums and singing too.

Once they ended the song we all clapped for them.

"You guys should make a band!" Ashley says outloud what everyone was thinking.

They should. There was just one thing missing.

I couldn't quite put my finger on it.

~

"So are you sure we should make a band?" Luke questioned slipping his hand into mine.

I sighed and leaned back against his chest.

I could sit here forever.

"I could too."

Did I say that outloud? Oops.

"About the band thing,I really think you should. But if I'm honest something is missing." I said looking up to meet his eyes. He moved his hand up and down my stomach tracing random patterns; he seemed lost in thought.

"Something is missing. I'll admit that."

I rack my brain thinking of everything that could possibly make their band complete.

I ultimately come out of my search empty handed. I was stumped.

"Guess I'll figure out what is missing tomorrow, for now I should be heading home. We have school tomorrow." I begin getting up and Luke pulls me back down and kisses my cheek.

"No stay with me!" He whines like a child.

"I can't, not tonight Luke. Meet me at my locker tomorrow morning."

I grab my things and Luke walks me downstairs. "Bye flyaway" he says with a saddened look on his face.

I reach and and grab the nape of his neck pulling his face down to mine so our lips could meet.

"Goodnight catchinsanity. I'll see you tomorrow."

Before I know it, I was back at my house making my way to bed.

My phone buzzed once letting me know I had one new message. I groan not wanting to get up.

I'll get it tomorrow.
