Chapter Twenty Six

Luke's POV

I climb into the passenger seat of Calum's white car, then hit the radio button. The song playing is Lost In Stereo by All Time Low. Becca told me that this was her favorite All Time Low song.

I smile to myself and look out the window, watching as we pull up at the hotel. I'm guessing were going to Calum's room.

"You said there was blood all over your room... Why are we going back there?" Ash asks.

"Good point, is your house free?" Calum says, pointing to Mike. He nods so we pull out of the parking lot and drive off to Michael's house.

When we get inside, my phone rings and I see it's from the hospital.

"Hello?" I answer.

"This is Dr. Young speaking, Mr. Hemmings?" Dr. Young says.

"This is he," I say.

"Miss James will be free to go in two days, she's healing quickly," He says, making me smile. "Visiting hours for tomorrow and the next day are  from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m."

"Great, thanks for letting me know," I say and hang up before he gets the chance to speak again. After shoving my phone in my pocket, I explain the call to Ash, Cal, and Mike. "It was the doctor, he said that I can take Becca home in two days. Visiting hours are 9 to 2."

"Awesome!" Ash grins, clapping me on the shoulder. I grin back and sit down on Mike's couch along with the others. We end up playing just about every board game in his house, and it is quite fun. It was around 1 o'clock when we started but now it's 4:25.

"Do you guys want something to eat?" Mike asks, we all nod eagerly. He disappears into his kitchen and comes back in a few minutes, holding a huge bowl of chips. He places it on my lap, knowing I eat the most out of all of us.

Everyone moves to sit next to me, taking some of the chips. I notice Calum and Ashton cringe when Mike sprinkles the crumbs back into the bowl, it's pretty disgusting but we let it go and continue eating. Calum turns on the TV and surfs the channels, he puts How I Met Your Mother on and I cheer. I love this show.

"You should be thanking me," Cal jokes, all of us chuckle.

Once every episode that was on of HIMYM ends, it's 8:59 and I decided I was tired. "You can stay here if you like?" Mike suggests, I think about it and nod. Mike smiles and turns his phone on for a reason I'm unaware of.

"I'll be across the street if you need me," Ash says, I suppose he's leaving. I wave to him as we walks outside.

"While they clean up my room can I stay here?" Calum asks. "The manager of the hotel said they'd get the floor cleaned up for me tonight."

"Yeah, definitely!" Mike says. "I'll sleep on the couch, one of you can have the spare room and the other can have mine."

"I'll take the spare room," I say, because I know how much of a slob Mike can be so I'd rather not see what his room looks like tonight.

"I'm not gonna find game controllers and pizza slices in your bed, am I?" Cal asks, his eyes narrow but a smirk takes over his face. Mike laughs but shakes his head.

"Night," I say and walk to the spare room. They call a goodnight to me. When I enter the room I notice that Mike changed the walls from pale grey to emerald green. He always told me he wanted the walls to be this color, and it matches the room perfectly so I don't see why he wouldn't want the walls this color. The [queen sized] bed has a billion white pillows and a white duvet, with really light green sheets. It would sound better if your saw it for yourself.
