Don't Leave Me... Again |[TMF]|

24. Came back

Jake's POV

We were walking to the sound of the glass smashing. As we were walking away, there was loud and chaotic thump behind me. I look behind and it was Zander. Sean was laughing as Zander was trying to get up. But was failing miserably.

Luke still was walking and I caught up to him. We both turned and saw two people laughing hysterically ontop of each other on the floor. The table and stools were flipped.

I could hear Luke groan in annoyance. "Guys what the fuck. This is the second time this has happened this week." He sighed angrily, walking up to the fallen over stools and putting the back how it was before.

Second time? This week? Does Luke know them?

He finishes fixing the furniture into place and turn towards the two, who are still laying on the floor. They look seriously drunk. "Henry, get the fuck up. The floors dirty."  He hissed. "Aweee, only if Liam picks me up." Henry giggles not taking anything seriously.

Wait what Henry and Liam?

"In your dreams, Hen." Liam replied. Luke tried pulling Henry up, but he wouldn't even bother trying to get up. "You know what..." he exhaled. "I tried to be nice. Jake would you mind helping me." He looked at me with a small helpless smile. I smiled back and nodded.

Liam was using the support of the stools to get up. "I'm going to regret this in the morning." He mumbled under his breath.

Me and Luke grabbed Henry's arms and put them over our shoulders. Pulling him up. He continued to giggle "I used to know a Jake. Messed up guy he was. That's why we were brothers from another mother."

Was that about me?

Liam finally managed to get up and then took a seat. He started to observe Henry. We were struggling to keep him on his feet, even though he's short he's heavy as fuck. He wasn't cooperating at all.

"I'm actually thanking the lord that today's not so busy" I chuckled at Luke's statement.

"Hen, we better get going. It's pretty late." Liam groan as he gets up, but then trips over his own feet. "Ha, you spastic." Liam laughs loud. "Spastic. Huh? I'll give you a spastic. C'mere." Liam charges at Henry. However, Henry being around our shoulders tries to run. He unwraps his arms and took a few strides before collapsing onto a nearby table. Liam only laughs.

I chuckled at their small jokes. I missed it. A lot actually. Luke looks at me with a 'giving up on everything' look. "You wouldn't mind watching them, while I'll get them some water." He asks me. "Not at all." He rushes off

Luke's POV-

I went to get the two some water. Like I said this has happened many times before. Way too many. I was walking to the counter and I saw Zander laying on the floor. Hailey just has her palm on his face. "Omg- Zander get the hell up." She groans. "Noo, the floor is comfy today." My husband giggles "How much did you even have to drink?" "Can't remember."

"Come on Zander get up now." I demand, as I walked behind the counter pouring some ice cold water for him, Henry and Liam.

It was just me working tonight. The bar belongs to me and two of my workers called in sick today. So, it was just me all on my own.

I finished pouring the glasses and went up to Zander and helped him to sit up at least against the stool. "Drink up." I smile giving him a small kiss on his forehead. He takes the glass with his hands and sips it.

"Alright Luke, let me take those from you and hand them over to the other two." She reaches for the glasses in my hand and I gave them to her and sat beside Zander. "Great, thank you." I appreciate her gestures.

She walks away and I can see Zander becoming more paler. "Luke, I'm going to throw up." Fuck sake

"Just not on me. Not on me." Before I could even move away he has already puked on my trousers. "Ugh," "I'm sorry." "No it's ok, it happens." Zander lays his head on my shoulder.

What a day.

Hailey's POV-

I took the glasses from Luke. It's pretty often for Zander to get wasted, but tonight he drank a bit too much.

I walked over and I saw Jake trying to get Henry off the floor. His blond hair sending waves of memories from the past. I iced to have feelings for him, but after the group collapsed I lost interest in him. Not just that, but I knew way before that I had to. He had Drew.

It hurt quite a bit, but anything that made Jake happy made me happy too. My heart always felt warm.

I regret not helping him on the day when he ran into Drew's house. But, I honestly thought nothing so bad was going to happen. However, we did try to stop him. We knew it could have been dangerous. But if your love of your life is in danger you would jump after them to save them. So I don't blame Jake.

The next few days were tragic. Not only did Jake's heart shatter to prices, but he vowed that he'd find Drew. He worked his ass off the get to where he is now. And I'm very proud of him.

The music club fell apart. On the bright side, maybe if the group didn't fall apart I wouldn't have become a professional musician and played on stages like today.

"I got some water for the two." I spoke and Jake turned around. I felt my heart flutter, as I saw his eyes. The feeling that was once there came back instantly. Not again my hard work of forgetting him was long gone.

"Good, good." Liam answered as he took a glass. Jake came up and took the second glass. His hand brushed against mine as he did so, then handed it to Henry. I felt my face heating up.

My god. What is wrong with me.

I quickly turned on my heels and went back.
