A/N hello guys! I'm so sorry this is very late I've been very busy with school. I really want to thank you all for commenting and voting so much because this story has honestly made me so happy from all the feedback and I just love you all. Enjoy!

OH YEAH AND THE END IS NEAR. Just letting you know.

Luke

Michael was allowed home from the hospital yesterday. The hospital tried to keep him for a while to make sure he wouldn't attempt suicide again, but me, Ashton and Calum promised to watch him and not leave him alone.

The hospital eventually gave in and let him go. He was only in the hospital for a week, and I slept beside his bed every night. I barely got any sleep, but I just wanted to be with Michael so that's okay.

Michael's been doing better lately. But that could just be because I've been watching him constantly to make sure he's okay.

Usually if I did something like that he'd tell me to stop because 'he's fine'. But he hasn't commented yet. He knows I just want to make sure he's okay.

Calum got Michael a new phone with a new number so at least Brian won't be able to text him. And Michaels not allowed to open the door anymore just in case it's Brian.

It might seem like a little much, but the last time he saw Brian he tried to kill himself. So I guess it's better safe than sorry.

We haven't talked much about the suicide attempt because it's obviously an emotional topic for everyone. So we've stuck to talking about banding and pancakes and ewoks.

Just our usual conversations.

"CALUM GIVE ME MY PANTS BACK." I hear Ashton yell from the next room.

"NO WE NEED TO USE THEM FOR THE EWOK PLAYGROUND." I hear calum yell back. It's 10am it's way too early for this.

"WHY CANT WE USE YOUR PANTS" Ashton yells.

"BECAUSE MY PANTS ARE EWOK-PROOF." Calum yells back. Michael then appears next to me, rubbing his eyes.

"What are they yelling about?" He groans, frowning.

"Pants and ewoks." I reply with an eyebrow raised.

"Typical." He says and goes off into the living room to settle the argument between Calum and Ashton.

The day went by pretty slowly. We all just sat on the couch watching a bunch of movies. I was cuddling with Michael when I got a text. I pick up my phone and look at it.

'If you don't answer my texts soon then I'm coming over and talking to you personally and trust me Luke, you do not want that.'

I sigh and look over at Michael who's focused on some movie that I haven't been paying attention to.

"I'll be right back." I say, kissing the top of Michael's head and getting up. He just nods, still focused on the movie as I walk upstairs.

I go into Michael's room and lock the door, since Michael's room is basically my room by now.

'Okay I'm here what do you want?'

I text back. Then I get another text.

'You finally answered. I've texted you 10 times this week, Luke.'

I bite my lip and start to text another reply.

'Just tell me what you want.'

I text back.

'You know what I want.'

He replies.

'Just give me some time.'
