1 month later

"Cal!" Ashton yelled from the drivers seat. I was sitting in the backseat of the car while Luke was in the passenger seat and Ashton was driving.

"Sorry, what happened?" I said looking around to see we were at a McDonalds. "I asked what you wanted" he chuckled.

I told him what I wanted before going back into my daydream. What if Michael doesn't come back? What if something happens? I look over at Ashton and Luke. Ashtons hand was latched on to Luke's thigh and Lukes hand was laying on top of Ashtons. They were laughing and joking around.

I want Michael.

Once we got home and settled in I laid in me and Michael's bed on his side with one of his hoodies on sobbing. I promised myself I wouldn't cry because we had one more month left but I miss him so fucking much.

All of the sudden my phone started to ring. It was Michael.

"Hello?" I said through the phone. I didn't want him to know I was sad or that I was crying but Mikey knows me to well.
"Hey, what's wrong, princess?" I sighed and closed my eyes.

"Mikey i miss you" I cried. I hate crying in front of Michael but I couldn't help it. I heard Michael sigh.
"I'll be back soon baby"

"No you won't! I need you now and- and you're not here Michael. I miss you and i- I'm sorry" I sobbed. "I need you here"

"Calum please, I promise okay? I'll be back in one month and when I do come back I promise you, I'll never leave again." I heard him sniffle so I knew he was crying. "I miss you too, I wish I was there with you love."

I started to cry more, I just want to feel him with me and hear him talk to me in person. "Baby I need you to breathe okay? Act like I'm right there right beside you yeah?" I tried to steady my breathing but nothing was working. So Michael started to sing to me.

"Another day another life
Passes by just like mine
It's not complicated" I sat back and listened to Michael's voice trying to breathe again.

"Another mind
Another soul
Another body to grow old
It's not complicated" he sang.

"Do you ever wonder if the stars shine out for you?
Float down
Like autumn leaves
Hush now
Close your eyes before the sleep
And you're miles away
And yesterday you were here with me"
Once he quit singing I heard him sniffle a bit. "Are you feeling better princess?" He whispered.

I smiled. My stomach was doing millions of flips and my eyes started to water"Yes, thank you Mikey" I said. "What time is it there?"

"4am" he said tiredly.

"Michael why do you always call me so late?" I laughed. "You can always call me another time like a normal time for you"

"Because you need your rest princess" he said "I can go without sleep, as long as I'm talking to you babe" i smiled and sat back against the headboard.
"Yeah but you work, I dont" I said, picking a string from the shirt I was wearing.

"I don't mind" he simply said. We talked for about two more hours until Michael could barley pronounce his words correctly. He was so sleepy and I felt bad for him. He works so much now but he stays up just for me.

"Mikey please go to sleep " I said. It was about 7pm where I was but I knew it was super late in Los Angeles. [A/N: idk shit about time zones soooo]
"I'm not- I'm not t-tired" he said. I rolled my eyes and looked to see go long we've been talking. 4 hours damn.

"Please sleep." I whispered. "But this is the last time I get to talk to you before I get home" he said and sniffled. "I miss you princess"

"Just pretend I'm right next to you Mikey" I smiled. He laughed "don't use my own words against me"

I laughed before talking "goodnight Mikey" I said.

"Goodnight baby, I love you"

"I love you too"

I hung up and put my phone down.

1 month.

3 months may not seem alot to most people but to me it's eternity. I got up and went to the living room. I didn't see Luke and Ashton anywhere but there was a note on the fridge.

Hey mate,
Me and Luke went on a last minute date thing, you were talking to Michael and we didn't wanna bother you but we'll be back around 11.
-Ash xx

I checked the time to see it was only 7:30. I grab my car keys [technically Michael's bc he left his car here] and got in the car to go to the one place I loved but hated.

-

"Hey mum" I sat down in front of her tombstone and looked down and let my tears fall. "I m-miss you"

"Everything's so hard right now mum. Michael is all the way in Los Angeles and I feel alone. I mean yea we talk once a month but I miss him. I miss you. I know you weren't too excepting but you loved me more than dad ever will. It's his fault your dead mum. He should be the one that's 6 feet under. Not- not you" I sobbed in my hands and tugged at my hair.

"I love you so much mum." I cried. I stayed for about an hour before getting up and going back to Michael's car. Tears were still running down my face but I didn't care to wipe them away.

I got into the car and started the engine. Just as I was pulling out from the graveyard I got a call.

Incoming call:
Ash

Ashton never calls me. I picked up the phone and held it up to my ear.

"Hey ash" I said pulling out of the graveyard.

"C-Calum" Ashton sobbed. "Lukes- Luke's in the hospital"
