Caitlyn's P.O.V

Tonight was performance night and I was excited to get this semester over but not excited to face Rider and Harry in the same room. It's not like things were awkward it's just that you know it's kinda hard to keep it from Harry because I love him so much to the point that hiding this from him is physical harming my body. I shouldn't feel guilty  because Rider kissed me and I stopped it but because I didn't tell Harry which would have been the right thing to do. Hopefully tonight I'll get the dance over with and can talk to Mickey about it. We were getting ready to head out to perform when I felt an arm tug me back inside the dorm.
"Caitlyn"
"Luke what are you doing were gonna be La-"
"I saw what happened"
"W-what?"
"I was going to get M from rehearsal when I heard the studio music on and I saw when Rider Kis-"
"Shhhhhh! Don't say a word! Let me tell Harry myself when the time is right okay!"
"Caitlyn..he kissed you"
"I know..."
"But he knew he messed up, that deist mean he's safe from Harry. So for now can you please not say anything to anyone..not even M"
"No problem there, she's been non-stop with Kaleb I barely get to talk to her anyways."
"L..I know everything is kinda fucked up right now but I promise we will get back in track soon. It's mucas and Carry forever! Nothing will come between that! Not Rider, not Kaleb, not Savanna, not Jane, Nobody!" He gave me a huge hug as we walked out. We arrived to the auditorium where we saw Kaleb and Mickey getting ready to sing. I ran over to where Rider and the other dancers were.
"Hey"
"Hi Ri, what's on?"
"We go in 10 minutes after Mickey and Kaleb- you arrived just in time"
"Good..I got held back a bit."
"So..um did you tell-"
"No, I'm telling him soon thought..so watch out hehe" he chuckled.
"I'm dead"
"Pretty much" we heard as Ms. Dana spoke her usual monologue and Kaleb and Mickey walk behind the curtain hand in hand with their lapels. He glanced over at me winking as they took the stage. I glanced over the curtain to watch- Kaleb was an Incredible singer! His voice matched with Mickey's as they sang- Luke's face over taken by anger am jealousy as he rolled his eyes, yet a smile fighting it's way out as he heard Mickey's sing. Some of the motions for their routine were inter personal, occasional hand grabs and cuddles but strictly professional..everything Rider and I weren't. Well..more him than me really, but I don't blame him- who could resist me! They ended they're performance as they went into the dressing room. Rider went off to his Parents after giving me a 'thank you, you did amazing' smile. Soon enough this whole pressure was lifted off of my shoulders. I saw Harry coming towards me smiling.
"You. Did. So. Amazing." He would say in between kisses.
"Thank you Hazza, just glad to finally be in break" I laughed nervously.
"What's wrong love? You still seem a bit on edge?"
"Nothing, I'm just- I really miss you that's all" I wasn't lying, truly I didn't feel as guilty anymore, Just being around Harry was enough to distract me..

Mickey's P.O.V

The night was finally over and so were my nerves. All night I was terrified Kaleb would try something but I should know better- he's my friends and a gentleman that would never do that to hurt Luke and I's relationship. Speaking if Luke I haven't seen him since the performance, He kinda disappeared at the end of it all which worried me. I really want to talk to him. Me and Luke have alway been inseparable..and after my Accident I didn't know it was possible but we became even more inseparable...but lately we never talk, we barely hang out and I never see him! I just I kiss my Lucas, everything was so easy when we were in high school. But Luke and I made a promise that nothing would tear us apart- and I plan on keeping my word to that. I got into my pajamas and said my goodnights to everyone. I lay down in bed scrolling through tumblr when I hear the dorm front door open. I shoot from the bed opening the room door revealing Luke with two little brown bags and a big brown bag.
Since everybody was asleep I tried to be as quiet as I could walking towards him.
"Lucas! Where have you been I was getting worried" a smile came across his face as he engulfed me in a hug. A really long hug- a hug we needed. He kissed me on the cheek as he took two Vanilla Bean Frappuchino's out of the bag with two warmer butter croissants.
"Sorry to scare you Mickey, but I had to go get you some 'omfg you did amazing I'm so proud of you' Starbucks" he chuckled.
"Oh my god thank you" I said taking him into another hug.
"Yeah- I've been a real jerk lately and I figured this was a good start to say I'm sorry" I kissed him cheek as I took the Starbucks to the room as he plopped down in the bed- me silently eating my Starbucks.
"How'd you know I like Vanilla Bean?"
"Are you kidding me, that's literally the only thing you order when we go to Starbucks..I got one Bc there was a special"
"This is literally fucking perfect" I laughed, suddenly his face getting very serious and his eye brows furrowed.
"Um M, you got a little whip cream on your face.."
"What? Whe-" I was cut off by Luke's lips clashing into mine. A sensation I hadn't experienced in what felt like a lifetime. He smiled into the kiss as his warm hands lovingly wrapped around my face.
"I think I got it- don't worry" he said cheekily sipping his Drink. We finally finished and cleaned up and soon enough were just sitting on the bed facing each other.
"Lucas, what's wrong with us?"
"I think we just love each other too much..so we do or say things we don't mean to do or say" he said taking my hand into his.
"What do we do with all this love we can not handle?" I joke.
"We put it to use..Mitchie?"
"Yes?"
"On our first day on break- would you like to go on a date? Like a re-kindle kind of thing. Just you and me! Nobody that can possibly bother us. I just..I wanna be a round you again" a big smile took over my face as his hands wrapped around mine.
"I would love that"
"Just like old times"
"No..there's no old, or new, there's just Us..nothing's changed nothing will ever change. Because were Mucas" we laughed but quietly Bc everyone was asleep.
"So it's a date?"
"You bet" I say as I bring my lips to his, his flat hair resting on my face as our eyes flutter closed. Finally I was back in Luke's arms, an I wasn't going to get away that easy, not again. I just hope C is okay with H..I haven't talked to them much either. But for right now-
It's just me and Luke....
