Luke: John and I are singing a song, "Day After Day", and it's going really well.

John: Luke and I have been singing together since we were little kids. Sometimes, Lily would join us, but usually it was just us. We started a band here at Lost and Found, and we write songs all the time. It's pretty cool.

Lily: I'm about to cut through the Rose Room to get to the Bull Pen, and I overhear Luke and John singing this song together, and it's really sweet. I almost want to smile.

Luke: John doesn't talk about it, but he's been having a hard time with his dad lately.

John: Things at home are still not good. I'm dealing with it by hanging out here and making music.

Lily: I say almost because, in the past few days, I haven't really been myself. I haven't told anyone about what happened last week, and I plan to keep it that way.

John: I know Lily's keeping something from me, from us. But I can't put my finger on what it is. It's probably her crush on Theo. I didn't expect her to like me, but I didn't expect her to like Theo either. It kinda hurts a little bit. But, um, it's okay. I mean, I didn't like her, anyway. It's Michelle I like, right?

Luke: There's something going on. I can sense it. I just, wish I knew what it was.

Luke: Lily and I are heading down towards the van, and then we hear, a noise coming from inside the van.

Luke picked up a garbage can lid and an empty soda bottle and carefully approached the van.

Lily rolled her eyes at her brother. "Wow, that's gonna do a lot of damage." She mocked. "Let me handle this." She said, picking up a bat that was in the garbage can next to the van. She opened the door and held the bat ready to swing, when John was revealed, with headphones in and lifting weights.

"John?" Luke asked. No reply. "John!" Luke yelled, touching him.

John jumped with fear. "What in the!"

"What are you doing?" Lily asked.

"What does it look like I'm doing?" John asked. "I'm working out!"

"Are you sleeping in here?" Luke asked, trying to divert the tension between John and Lily.

John looked around. "Maybe."

John: My dad currently thinks I'm at Luke's house, but really, I'm living in the Mutt Cracker.

Luke: I know why John is living in the van, and it's because him and his dad aren't getting along. They're fighting again. Probably over something like taking out the garbage.

"You know you can stay at my place if you wanted." Luke said.

"You snore." John said. "Why would I do that to myself?"
