8:05-11:51
Michael looks at his daughters through the rearview mirror. He loves how both of them are singing along to Jasey Rae by All Time Low and making funny faces at each other. He turns the song up louder for the girls as he makes his way into the drop-off lane at their school. He tells the girls he loves them at least four hundred times before he turns onto the main road and makes his way to work.
...
The clock on Mike's desk reads 12:45, meaning he can take his lunch break. He sighs and closes down his computer, he glances up from his desk to see Lilias coming into his office. He smiles at her and stands up, dragging her out of their building and into the cold October air. "What do you want to eat?" He asks with a smile, waiting for his friend to reply. After mumbling 'anything' her and Michael climb into his car and make their way to the nearest Mexican restaurant, Michael is really craving nachos.
The two adults eat slowly, taking their time on their delicious lunch. "These are the best fucking nachos I've ever had, who needs love or affection when you could have these?" Michael moans causing Lilias to laugh loudly, Mike joining in. Their joking is cut short by a loud series of Pangs coming from Michael's phone. They both look at it curiously, knowing no one ever texts Michael. Lilias watches as her best friends eyes widen as he scrolls through his notifications.
"What is it?" He turns the phone towards her, watching as she has the same reaction.

"What the hell just happened?"
...
Luke grumbles as he rolls out of his bed and onto the floor, whoever is at his door won't stop knocking. He curses under his breath as he moves towards the door. As he get's closer he can hear whoever is outside the door talking to someone on the phone. Luke knows from the fast paced high pitched voice that his record label manager and best friend, Calum Hood, is the one who woke him up at eight in the fucking morning.
He tosses the door open and starts making his way back to his bed, knowing Calum will just walk in and start looking through his kitchen for food anyways. The tall man says his goodbyes before looking over at Luke who is face down in the bed.
"Do you know a man by the name of Michael Clifford?" Calum asks, taking a seat on Luke's couch. A million memories float through his head at the mention of the boy he was so in love with, the boy he is still so in love with. He falls off his bed, again, and runs over to Cal.
"Yeah, why?" He says, trying to stay calm.
"Well," Calum shakes his head and pulls out his phone, clicking on what appears to be an E-mail, "I got an E-mail from him a few days ago, he said to tell you 'Mikey wants to talk', and gave me his social media information. I wanted to make sure it was actually someone you knew before responding or whatever. How do you know him?"
Calum knows lots about Michael. Luke has told him endless stories of the boy he had to leave. Calum knows how in love with Michael he is and how he has been searching for him for years, the only difference is Calum knows Michael as William. Luke never told Calum his name was actually Michael, he wanted that to himself, but now he has to tell Cal.
"Calum, that's William, I told you his name was Will, but it's not. William is Michael." Calum isn't even fazed by the fact that Luke has lied to him for the past nine years; instead he jumps up and grabs the blonde by his shoulders.
"Luke do you see what this means! We found your lover boy and he literally gave you his social media information, we fucking found him!" Luke shrugs Calum's hands off of him, trying to get the older man to stop violently shaking him. He falls onto the couch before realizing what Calum just said. He jumps up and grabs Calum's shoulders shaking him just as violently, "Calum we found him! Oh my god, give me the information now!"
The kiwi man shoves his phone in front of Luke so that he can read the username Michael had given him. He clicks on the only result and sure enough there he is in all his glory. Luke laughs at his lame bio and hits the follow button, clicking on the only picture Michael has posted. It's of him and a little girl; she has an electric guitar in her hands (obviously Mike's) and a look of pure concentration on her face. Michael is showing her where to put her fingers and smiling.
"Who is that kid?" Calum questions him, staring over Luke's shoulder at the phone screen.
"I'm not sure, probably his niece or something, he has like a million older sisters." The thought that the child could be Michael's doesn't even cross through his mind. Luke see's Calum take out his own phone and follow Michael as well.
"Should I E-mail back?" Luke nods, taking the phone from his hands. "I will type it for you." Calum rolls his eyes at Luke but agrees anyways.
Hello Michael!
Thank you for the E-mail. I have informed Luke and he seemed to have been very excited to hear from you! He should have followed you on some sort of social media to be able to contact you, best of wishes for your relationship. Have a nice day!
- Calum Hood, CTH Records
Luke squeals like a little girl next to Calum as he hits send, "I cannot believe we found him!" The twenty-six year old leans into his best friends side and closes his eyes, thinking of the boy he fell so hard for all those years ago.
