I knock on the door and Harry opens it. He walks off and Halsey and I enter, closing the door and running up to Michael's door. We knock on it and Halsey quickly asks Harry if Michael's home and he says yes.
"Michael?" Halsey calls, knocking on the door.
"Cmon Mikey, open up." I call and he still doesn't answer.
"We're gonna come in.." Halsey trails off and my eyes widen.
It should just be Halsey going to talk to Michael but I'm one of his best friends and its better having two people take care of him than one. Plus, then he'll get double hugs.
I hold Halsey's arm just before she opens the door.
"Maybe we should give him some space.." I trail off.
"Would you leave Calum this way? Who knows what he could be doing in there." Halsey whispers.
"Just leave." I hear from the room, and I know that Michael's sitting in front of the door.
"Michael, please babe I'm sorry." Halsey says but gets no answer. "Its all my fault that I basically killed our kid okay? Because I failed to be safe and got hit by that fucking car and stayed in a coma for four months which means I couldn't feed our kid properly okay, just don't hate me please!"
I feel bad for Halsey. It's not even her fault she got hit by that car or anything like that.
"Its not your fault." Michael says from behind the door.
"Mikey just let us in, you need a hug, I can feel it." I say and there's a silence before the door opens. He looks a mess.
His beard had grown out a little bit and his eyes are bloodshot. We enter and Michael sits down on the bed. Halsey kneels in front of him in between his legs and holds his thighs and I sit beside him and lay my head on his shoulder.
"Michael I'm so sorry." Halsey says shakily.
"It's not your fault okay." He says and he wraps one arm around my waist.
"Thank you Luke, I really need that." Michael says and I give him a tiny smile.
"Why are you so sad?" I ask and he shakes his head.
"Because I've lost my child. Its nobodies fault okay? I'm just sad because I was so excited. I've been waiting for so long for this and.. I don't even get to see it." He says shakily, his voice breaking.
Halsey sits down and rests her head on Michael's leg, gently stroking his thigh.
"I'm sorry for being such a dick. I don't deserve as much love as you guys are giving me." Michael says.
"Michael we just wanna make you feel better." I say to him and he shakes his head.
"You guys should be pissed at me." He mumbles.
"You should be pissed at me, I failed to deliver a kid." Halsey says and Michael frowns.
"No way, it is not your fault." He says.
"And its not yours, okay?" She says and Michael rubs his eyes.
"Just.. stop hugging me.. you're both too kind and too cute to hang out with me." Michael whines. I wrap my arms around his waist and nuzzle my head deeper into his neck and Halsey shuts her eyes and a tiny smile stretches across her face.
Michael smiles a little and crosses his legs behind Halsey and wraps his arms around me too and rests his head on top of mine.
"You guys are so fucking nice. I feel like I'm dating both of you. Is that allowed?" Michael asks.
"Well you can half date me so that I'm not cheating on Calum and so that you're not cheating on Halsey." I say.
"Hey Lukey, I wanna date you too." Halsey says making me giggle.
"Okay well same applies to you then." I say.
"We should have a threesome." Halsey says before she's ignored by Michael.
"But if you're half dating Halsey and half dating me, then you're fully dating.. M-Malsey," He blurts out. "Therefor, you are cheating on Calum."
"Oh.. well then I'll have to break up with you two." I say.
"No! Michael you ass our relationship was going so well!" Halsey scolds and slaps Michael's knee making him chuckle and ruffle Halsey's hair.
"What about you and Calum though?" Michael asks making me sigh.
"He's gone mute again." I say and his eyes widen. "Don't get mad at him.. he feels like you hate him."
"What?" He spits.
"Michael," Halsey says and Michael stands up, knocking me to the side and making Halsey move aside.
"No. He has to talk. I'm not gonna let him--"
"Michael you can't just force him!" I say and he just looks plain angry.
"Well do you want him to be silent forever?! Do you never want to hear his voice again?!" Michael screams.
"Shut the fuck up dude!" Halsey shouts and Michael seems offended.
"You know what--"
I cut him off, "He almost suicided because he thought you hated him so much. And now he's gone mute because he's depressed because of you."
Michael's eyes widen and Halsey's hand slowly raises up to her mouth.
"I almost lost my boyfriend because my best friend was being so rude to him. Just knock it off!" I scream.
Its silent before Michael says, "I'm... so sorry.."
"No.. I'm sorry," I sigh. "You should be doing whatever you want. Just... don't be so rude okay?"
"He almost died because of me?" He asks and I nod hesitantly.
"Oh my god.." Halsey breathes out.
"Okay well.. I gotta go find him. I'll see you guys later." I say with a smile but Michael engulfs me in a really tight hug first. I gently hug him back.
"I'm so sorry. I really am. I-I'll back off okay?" He whispers and I nod before we pull away and I give him a tiny smile.
"Okay, bye guys." I say before exiting the apartment.
