THE HEMMINGS TWINS

CHAPTER 23

MICHAEL P.O.V 

Today me and the boys were up super early heading over to an radio show for an interview and I decided to bring Lilia and Dax with me. As soon as we were all set up we got started with the interview. 

"So boys, tell us about your music." He said and I smiled. Our music was one of my favorite topics. 

"Well, we're just sort of writing. We're writing for the kids who need the music." Luke answered. We knew that our fans had mental issues and that they were having a hard time so being able to write music for them that can influence them to be better people is one of the greatest things in the entire world. 

"What do you mean by that?" 

"Well I think what he means is that a lot of our fans have mental health issues and they listen to our music for help. We've seen mental health up close and we've been through some stuff in our lives that really influence our music." I helped Luke out smiling at Lilia who was holding our sleeping son, yawning herself. 

"Not to get too personal but what is some stuff you guys have been through?" I looked to Ashton and then to Luke. 

"Well, not to shove my sister under the bus, but I watched her fight anorexia for a very long time. She actually toured with us for a while and she seemed to be getting better. Once she gave birth to my nephew she seemed to get better." 

"Yeah, same here. His sister is the mother of my child so watching her go through that was so hard. And then it was like being away from both of them while touring, was so hard and it like depressed me because I couldn't be there when she was having a hard time and I had just made it for when Dax was born and it was hard when he was born and we were both exhausted. We actually wrote a song about him." I smiled. Dax was my pride and joy and I wanted him to be apart of this. 

"I didn't know you were a dad!" The interviewer said. 

"Yeah, a little over a month now." 

"I didn't realize that was your baby." He said looking over at Lilia. "He looks just like you. What's his name?" 

"Dax." I answered. 

"Ashton and Calum, what have you two gone through?" It's so hard talking about stuff like this but this is what is helping our fans and helping our music. 

"Well, my dad left my mom when I was younger. It's been hard for my mom and then all of a sudden I was rushed into this big world and left home to travel so being away from them is so hard." 

"You have two younger siblings right?" 

"Yeah, I do. So they look up to me and I hate that I see these dorks more than them." We all laughed. 

"I've been through nothing." Calum answered. Lucky shit. "I do like Michael's baby though. He's cute." 

"Stop talking about my baby!" Most of the fans were angry that we had Dax and both me and Lilia have reassured them that nothing is going to change just because we have a kid. "The fans are freaking out about it." I said. 

"Why?" 

"They think I'm going to quit the band because of him." 

"Are you going to?" 

"Hell no! This is the greatest thing that's ever happened to me besides him. I would never give up my dream. We've talked about it." 

"Is that true Lilia?"
