It Started With A Kiss, How Did It End Up Like This? (Muke)

Chapter 17

I woke up and calmly slipped from Luke's grip. I got up from the bed and went to my closet. I grabbed my Metallica shirt and put all my bracelets on. I slipped on some black skinny jeans and walked into the kitchen. I opened up the cabinet and saw no Vegemite. Greaat. I grabbed my keys and wallet and walked to my car.

I opened the door to the car and climbed in. I made sure my phone was on me, and sure as hell it was. I slowly started up the car and drove out of the driveway.I drove to the store and walked inside. I walked to the isle and grabbed the jar of Vegemite. I walked to the register and handed her the money. I walked back into my car and put the vegemite in the back seat.

I started up the car and the pulled out of the store. As I was driving I heard a lot of horn honking. When it came into vision I saw a car spin around along the road. I saw the car get closer. I went to turn into a road and as I was turning the spinning car hit me. And everything went black.

LUKE'S POV

I woke up and my warmth was gone. I groaned and went to the bathroom. Michael wasn't there. I called his phone and got no answer. I got off my ass and asked Calum where he was.

"Where's Michael?" I asked worried

"I think he went out to get some Vegemite." Calum replied fiddling with his phone.

"Thanks." I said walking to my room with knowing or at least thinking he was okay.

I can never believe Michael being okay anymore. Everything is just getting worse for him and all I want to do is make him happy. I sat down on my bed and then my phone began to ring. I picked up without checking the caller ID.

"H-Hello?" I asked

"Hello, you are friends with Michael.. Clifford?" The lady asked

"He is my boyfriend... W-Why?" I said getting a bit shaky

"Okay well, he is currently in the hospital. He-" I hung up before listening. I screamed at the top of my lungs till my chest felt tight. I began to cry. I grabbed my phone and wallet. I ran to my car and started it up. I began to drive quickly to the hospital. I ran inside the doors and ran to a desk.

"M-Michael Clifford?" I asked the lady

"Family only. Sorry." She said

"He doesn't have a fucking family! His mom left him at 12 and his dad is in jail! Let me go see him!" I yelled at her

"Sir, I would appreciate you to not yell at me. You can see him in 2 hours after his surgery."

"What surgery?"

"He broke a lot of bones in the car crash."

Car crash. So that means someone hit Michael. Or Michael hit someone. Not everyone lives through a car crash, though. What if he doesn''t? No, Luke, don't think like that. I ran into a bathroom and broke down crying on the floor. Nothing is ever okay anymore. Something has to happen. My boyfriend can't even be safe anymore. We can't hold him back from doing simple things. He only went to the store, right? What if he did this on purpose? No. He couldn't leave me that easily. Oh god.

I began to cry harder against the floor and soon the door opened. Inside walked Ashton.

"Luke?" He asked softly

"W-What?" I replied

"Stand up please." He said putting out a hand. I took it and he pulled me up. I pulled him into a hug.

"I want him to be okay, no shit happening." I said crying into his shoulder

"He will be okay soon Luke. Everything will soon, be okay." Ashton said pulling away from the hug

We walked into the waiting room and sat for what seemed like forever. The lady said Michael's name and I stood up.

"You aren't gonna come?" I asked Ashton and Calum

"We'll leave you time alone with him, its fine." Calum said

"Okay." I said walking to the lady

"Room A3. Right down the hall." She said and I walked. I stood at the door and twisted the knob.
