Michael's pov

When Audrey and I were standing outside Luke's house, we figured he wouldn't answer. So we went home. But now it's 3 am and no one knows where he is. "Hey Michael?" Audrey asked from beside me. "What do you want?" I snapped. We're all  on edge, but I felt a little bad. "What if he's gone, like, forever...?"  She hesitated. "Audrey. Shut up. He's not gone. He's probably... I don't know. I just, I don't know ok? Just, calm down. I don't know what to do..." I rubbed my temples and leaned back in the chair. Audrey sat her head between her knees and sighed. Mrs. Hemmings was still pacing around the room and Mr. Hemmings is still making phone calls. "Mrs. Hemmings, please sit down. It'll all be alright." I said scooting over. She sighed and obliged. "Michael, I'm just scared. I don't know where he is. He's my baby. He's all I got left..." She began to cry and I side hugged her. "Liz, he's alright. I know Luke and he's probably with Calum or Ashton somewhere. I bet he's out at some run down restaurant." I rubbed her side and she calmed down a little bit. "Mike, can I use your phone?" Audrey said not looking up. I hummed a reply and handed her my phone. This will be a long night.

I woke up with Audrey's feet in my face and my upper half on the floor. I pushed my self up and Audrey off of me and stretched. Mr. Hemmings was asleep with his phone in his hand. I sighed and got up. I quickly texted my mom telling her I'm still at Luke's. Liz was asleep in the recliner. I decided to let her sleep and get Audrey up. She reluctantly agreed and helped me in the kitchen. "Michael Clifford. I'm so fucking tired." Audrey yawned and started falling asleep. "Wake up and shut your mouth. We're gonna help Liz. You start breakfast and I'll clean. Chop chop." I walked away from Audrey and began cleaning things up. After my cleaning was done I made sure to make them some coffee because they have to be exausted. "Audrey are you almost done?" I called out from the hallway. I walked in to the kitchen and she smirked. "Does it look like it?" I looked around the table and gaped at it. There was the whole nine. She made bacon, eggs and everything beyond. "You do realize there's only four of us?" I asked cocking my eyebrow up. "Yeah, but I figured if I'm gonna do this, might as well make it good." She shrugged and started on the dishes. As if on cue, Liz walked into the kitchen. "Oh my gosh, did you guys do this? The house is clean and this food is amazing. Thank you so much." She said and hugged me and Audrey. Liz sat down with her husband and began to eat.

   Later that night Liz was getting more worked up by the minute. With Luke, no where to be found everyone was on edge.  Frustrated with everything, Liz stood up and grabbed her keys. She told us all she'd be back and left without another word. "Should we go after her?" Audrey asked. "No," I said, "let her go." I knew Luke was ok, I was just having trouble convincing myself and everyone else. I didn't expect this from him, he wouldn't just leave. That's not the Luke I know, and I'm going to find him.
