-ASHTON'S POV-
"Luke?" I stared into empty eyes, traveling to a literal dent in his forehead under perfect blonde hair, and a bloody gap in his skinny side.
-CALUM'S POV-
"Lucas." I said, smiling to hold back tears. "Luke come on mate. Look at me."
I wiped more tears and Mikey pat my back.
"SAY SOMETHING TO ME LUKE!" I sobbed. "I'm Calum. I'm Calum your best friend."
-MIKEY'S POV-
For a second between Calum's sobs I swear I saw him twitch a little.
"There's no point." I said desperately. I won't cry because I am strong. And Luke doesn't deserve this. He wouldn't want us to cry or pity. He would want us to laugh and have fun and...
Sing.
So I knelt down next to Luke Robert Hemmings on the pathetic hospital floor and I sang to him.
And then we all were. Singing, Caroline too, high and soft between tears. For our most likely dead friend Luke but to me he was alive and thriving and maybe this coma will end or maybe this is the end for Luke but it's not the end for us.
We will keep Luke with us forever.
His voice will be heard and I know for a fact that he left out of love.
For Caitlin.
And that's not her fault or his fault or anyone's--
