This Old Town ✖️Muke

Chapter 35

(Michael)

"Pack Michael! you're being stupid!" Calum yells at me. were all now in my room, Ash and Cal are yelling at me to pack my bags. Luke left a week ago and i guess today is the day they planned to go meet him in New York. NO one told me this though so now they are in my room shouting at me to get up and pack. I already told them i wasn't going to go.

"Come on you're being ridiculous. He payed for our plane tickets and he is even paying for our hotel room you can at least be grateful and come." Ash whines, throwing my suitcase at my head. i narrowly dodge it and glare at him.

"ya, for someone who claims to love him you are acting like a child." Calum says. "you're being a bad friend if you don't go. think about it, when he came here he didn't want to be here, he hated it but he put up with it for your sake. the least you can do is do the same.

"uhhhh fine!" i shout, making them shut up. i whine and pull on my hair.

"i guess i'm being stupid and a bad friend, you're right, he is going out of his way to make us feel comfortable and we shouldn't make him regret it." i sigh. I mean last time i was in the city wasn't that bad.

"yess!!! pack now! flight leaves in three hours so we kind of have to leave like in a half hour.." Ash trails off and smirks at my glare.

"Have fun packing! remember its kind of cold in America this time of year!"

~~~

"I hate you all" i grumble once were all in Ashton's truck and on our way to the airport.

"Come on this will be good for you. plus, we get to show Luke that we kept up on your galaxy hair" he smirks. i pull a hand through my hair and play with a strand. I kind of got addicted to the color and kept going back to see Lu. i blush a them saying they will tell Luke,like he wont notice himself. i'm actually surprised he didn't say anything when he was here a week ago.

I cant believe were leaving Australia" i whisper, looking out the window with wide eyes. Ash and Cal make noises in agreement. they too have never been out of Aus before.

"so um.. how exactly are we getting to Luke? like is there a plan when we get there?" i ask. Ashton laughs.

"No Michael, were just going to wing our first time in America, say fuck it and see where we end up" i narrow my eyes at him.

"no need to be mean" they both just laugh and i turn the radio on.

"And this is Figure Me Out, Luke Hemmings newest single off of his newest album Named after the single. He was nominated for Artist of the year at the American Music Awards next month so dont forget to vote for him." the dj says and plays the song.

"seriously, he can be a million miles away and still be here." Cal jokes. Tell me about it.

"Thank you boys, have a nice trip" the lady hands us back our tickets and lets us board the plane. the three of us must be a sight, were grown men and were basically shaking in our boots about boarding an airplane.

"Ash where are our seats?" I whisper and he rolls his eyes.

"seriously? you two are hopeless."

"please Ash?" Cal gives him puppy eyes and i smirk at the way Ashton's demeanor changes.

"fineee" he whines and looks around. "ummm i actually have no idea either" he says sheepishly.

"ash! you're supposed to be the responsible one!" i laugh.

"excuse me?" someone asks from behind us. the three of us turn around to find a woman dresses in the airline uniform smiling sweetly at us.

"can i help you boys find your seats?" we nod vigorously making her laugh. she takes Ashton's ticket and looks at it, then motions for us to follow her.
