Michael sat upstairs, listening to the soft cries that escaped the basement as G hurt Luke's younger brother. That was all Harry was to him - the younger brother of his love. Harry's phone began buzzing next to him and he saw Luke's contact, making him smile softly.

"Hey, baby boy," he said softly. "Do you have good news for me?"

"Do you remember the day you took me? The very first time when your asshole brother said he'd help me with my car broken down on the side of the road?"

"Of course I remember... it was the first time I ever saw you... ever touched you... it was the first time I ever hurt you." He bit his lip to hold back the pleasure of the memory.

"Meet me where my car broke down... tonight at five. Bring my little brother..."

"Come alone-"

"I'm not coming alone. I'm bringing someone to drive Harry back to safety. You can have me, but I'm not coming alone." Michael looked over at the stairs as G walked up them.

"G won't like it..." he whispered.

"G is dead..."

"We'll meet you there. Five o'clock... don't be late, or I'll let G kill him..." without another word, Michael hung up.

"What won't I like?" He asked, pulling on his leather jacket and slicking back his hair.

"We're meeting up with Luke tonight... but he's not coming alone."

"You have no idea how a ransom works, do you?"

"If we give them Harry, Luke will be ours. He won't fight it..."

"What if he brings the cops?"

"He won't risk it! He wants to save his little brother... you'll see..."

Calum sat in his hospital bed, breathing heavily as he clutched his chest.

"Baby, what is it?" Ashton asked. "What's wrong?" Calum let out a groan mixed with a sob as he squirmed in bed.

"I-it hurts so m-much," he said through breaths. "M-make it stop," he sobbed. Ashton sat behind Calum on the bed and hugged him tightly, trying to soothe him.

"I'm sorry, love... it's going to get better..."

"I-I c-can't..."

"You can't what?" Calum took in a sudden breath.

"I c-can't..." suddenly he fell back into Ashton's arms and began seizing.

"No, no, no! Help!" Ashton shouted, holding him tightly. "Please, someone help my love!" Calum's doctor ran into the room and looked into his eyes as he seized. "What's going on?" Ashton cried, still holding onto him so he wouldn't fall. Calum stopped moving suddenly, laying limp in Ashton's arms.

"His condition is getting worse..." he said quietly. "We need to find him a new kidney very soon..."

"W-why would he have a seizure?"

"Toxins are running through his body right now because his kidneys aren't able to flush them out... think of the seizures as the body's way of trying to get attention to the problem..." Ashton stood and the doctor moved Calum back into his place on the bed. "We'll put some seizure pads on the bars..."

"C-can't I give him one of my kidneys?" Ashton asked, knowing the answer.

"I'm sorry... you didn't match him..." Ashton sat back in his chair and began crying as a soft knock sounded at the door. "I'll leave you be... I'll send the CNAs in to check up on him more frequently..." the doctor turned to walk out, letting Noah inside.
