You two look like parents...:

I woke up covered in blankets. I had dry tears on my cheeks that made my skin all dried up and tight. Ew. I go to the sink in the little kitchen and wash my face down. Jaxon and Maya must be in the house already. I go outside and into the house. I could hear whispers coming from the living room. I grabbed a muffin off the counter and go towards the voices.

When I go inside the living room there was Luke, Calum and Michael on the couch, and Kendall on the recliner. I cuddled up close to Luke and everyone fell silent. There was a long silence till I sighed.

"What?" I look up at everyone. They were all looking at one another and not talking. I don't like this. I just want them to act normal and not make a big deal out of any of this, it will be so much easier. "Audrey, we're so so-" "Please don't. I-I just want you guys to act like nothing happened." I interrupt Calum.

"But something did happen, and we need to address that." Kendall speaks up. "I just can't. It hurts to much!" I get up and go back to my room. I throw the muffin in the trash and collapsed onto the ground next to my bed. "Audrey, babe?" I look up over my knees at Luke standing there in the doorway. "Please talk to me. You need to vent and I'm here for that. I want to be here for you for anything and everything." He kneels down in front of me and takes my hands in his.

He actually wants to hear me ramble about how much I miss my mom? Even though she wasn't a good mom at all? And she hit him. And how I don't know how I'm going to raise Jaxon and Maya without anyone by my side? Well I guess he did. I told him everything. From my current struggles to my father. "Audrey, I'll be here for you the entire time. You guys are our family. And I see how weird that sounds since, ya know." He motions to us. I chucked at him and nodded. "I love you so much Audrey and I hate seeing you like this. We all do. I just want to take the pain away from you and make you happy again. But I can't, none of us can and we are all beating ourselves up about it. You're the baby of the group and we feel we need to protect you."

"You can't Luke. No one can. And I thought my Mother loved me, but now she's rotting in a jail cell. I-I. I don't know anymore. I've lost both my parents and-. I don't know." I keep repeating. "You know my parents will help you with everything. They think of you as a daughter. They Love you. I Love you okay?" I looked back up at him and his eyes were red and puffy.

Please don't cry Luke!

I got onto my knees and wrapped my arms around Luke's neck, "I love you too Luke. I Love you so much." I whisper into his ear. We stayed on the ground holding each other and whispering till I was feeling sleepy again. I had so many nightmares last night I just couldn't get as much sleep as I wanted to.

Luke picked me up and set me onto my bed. "Luke?" I take his wrist as he was walking away. "Yes? Can I get you something? more blankets? hot chocolate?" He keeps rambling things off that he could bring me. "Can you sing to me?" I ask in more of a whisper. He stopped rambling and lied down on my bed with me.

He intertwined out fingers and my back met his chest. He brought his left arm under my neck and I closed my eyes. Luke brought his lips to my ear and whispered, "What would You like?" I hummed and thought of something. "Anything." I felt his lips tug into a smile agents my cheek.

He lied his head on the pillow and began to sing softly.

Oh, her eyes, her eyes make the stars look like they're not shining
Her hair, her hair falls perfectly without her trying
She's so beautiful
And I tell her everyday.
