Luke's P.O.V

I slowly fluttered my eyes open, closing them when I was met with the bright sun, shining through my bedroom window. I slowly lifted my blanket off of me and sat up. I looked around my bedroom, slightly jumping when seeing Michael asleep in bed. I then realized that he was supposed to be staying here for a while and sighed quietly, making sure I didn't wake him up.

I grabbed my phone from the small table beside my bed. I turned it on and my screen had a message from Calum on it from a few minutes ago.

C: Are you asleep?

I texted him back, to make sure he didn't need anything.

L: I was but now I'm awake. What do you need?

About 5 seconds after I sent the message, I got a reply.

C: Yes. I need you to give me advice.

L: What kind of advice?

C: Dating advice of course.

I face palmed and groaned but chuckled a little.

L: What are you confused about?

C: What can I do to make Ashton think I'm funny?

L: Tell him a few jokes. I think your jokes are pretty funny.

C: I did but he just laughed at how 'cute' I was at telling jokes.

L: Why do you want him to think you're funny? He already thinks you're cute. Plus, his jokes are so cheesy, so I don't think he knows what funny is. It's a win win situation. Just stop. You're trying too hard. He is going to like you for you. Judging from yesterday, I think he really likes you. Even though you guys met not that long ago, I can see how happy you guys are together. You were made for each other. I can tell. :-)

C: Thanks. I'm glad I have a friend like you.

I smiled.

L: Me too.

C: I have to get going so I'll see you later. Bye.

L: Bye, Cal.

I shut off my phone and put it back on the small table. I heard a soft snore coming from Michael's mouth. It looked way too cute for me to even describe.

I admired him for a few more minutes before I heard my stomach growl. "Should I wake him up?" I thought to myself. Michael looked so peaceful in a deep sleep, so I really didn't want to wake him up. Calum and Ashton told me that it was his day off today. I slowly got out of bed, trying to make my footsteps very faint and hard to hear. I opened the door slowly and tiptoed out the of the room. I took one more glance at Michael and went to the bathroom across the hall.

Michael's P.O.V

(Trigger warning) Keep reading after the words in bold if you are very easily triggered.

I was walking back to my house and finally made it there but saw that one of the windows was shattered into pieces. "They're drunk, how amazing," I thought to myself. I heard my dad scream angrily.

"MICHAEL! WHEN THAT STUPID FAGGOT GETS BACK HERE HE'S GONNA GET HIS ASS KICKED," he told my mother. I hid behind a bush that was in my front yard. I felt tears stinging my eyes and hid as best as I could.
