LUKE POV

**6pm, May 9th**

"Where's Michael? We're on in twenty minutes." I ask Calum.

"He bitched at me and is refusing to come." Calum says.

"I'm not getting him." Ash says.

"If I go in there he'll murder me, Ash you have to get him." I say. Ashton groans.

"Fine." Ash says. He heads out, leaving just Calum and I.

"So, we have a couple years to catch up on." Cal says.

"Yeah." I say.

"So, when'd you first realize you liked Ash?" Cal asks me.

"Well, if you don't remember, I was scared shitless during the very beginning of the 1D tour. I mean, there were so many people and everything moved so fast. Ash just started telling me not to be afraid and stuff, and holy shit that fucker is the cause of my ego." I realize.

"I'm not surprised. So basically he was a good person and you started crushing on him." Calum says.

"Yeah, basically. We started hanging out more and next thing I know it's halfway into the tour and he fed my ego to the point it asked him to be my boyfriend. Yes, my ego asked, because literally everything terrifies me." I say.

"That's cute." Calum says.

"How long have you liked Michael?" I ask.

"It's been a long time. Mikey and I have been friends forever and I guess I always knew I secretly liked him. I admitted it to myself not long after the band was formed. I didn't tell Michael until like eight months ago." Cal says.

"That's a really hard eight months then. Especially with him not liking you back." I say.

"It's hard to understand him sometimes. His life basically revolves around hating you. Even I got bored of hating you." Cal says.

"How? I kept things so interesting." I grin. Calum rolls his eyes.

"It started getting old." Calum shrugs.

"I was planning to get more physical. You know, shoving Ash into walls and such. He loves it." I say.

"He loves getting shoved into walls?" Calum asks.

"He thinks it's hot." I grin.

"Ah, makes sense. I bet he loved when you pinned him to the wall." Cal says.

"I was really horny that night." I say.

"I give up." Ashton stomps in.

"Ash, we're on in ten minutes, you can't give up." I say.

"He is being a douchebag, I'm done with him, your turn." Ash says, sitting down on the little couch.

"I'm gonna die." I mutter. I leave the dressing room, and head to their bus. I step in, and go to the bunks.

"Michael, we're on in ten." I say.

"You get the fuck out of here now." Michael says to me.

"I'm not leaving without you. Come on." I say.

"No." Michael says.

"Michael I will drag you inside." I say.

"Touch me and I will kill you." Michael says. Ashton should've done this. I'm not strong enough for this. I yank Michael out of his bunk, and over my shoulder.
