Bath Bombs

  Calum was worried after he left his house he sent the blonde boy a text that he was going to be coming over.

He hadn't gotten a response the whole way there and here he was knocking on the front door that was locked.

The door was hardly ever locked, even if so Calum had a key but to his luck, he had forgotten it at his place.

The Maori had rung the doorbell and even knocked several times, no answer.

Michael had the day off, his mom had already moved and Michael didn't have many friends so the Maori had no idea where Michael could be; if he even left the house.

The silence was killing him, he thought the worse; like what if Michael ran away or-

The loud ring brought Calum out of his thoughts before they could go any farther.

"H-Hello?"

"Cal? Hey, I just left Luke's work. How is it going with Mikey?" The red-head asked as he walked over to his car.

"Uh..Well- I uh. He isn't answering Ash and I-"

"What do you mean he isn't answering, don't you have your keys?" 

"No...I forgot them at home. Ash I-"

"I know pup, it's okay. Just breathe alright? Everything is okay." Ashton tried calming the younger male down, it wasn't an easy task especially since he wasn't in front of the Maori.

"I'm going to go back in and get Luke's keys and then I'll be there okay?  Let me know if he answers. I'll be there soon okay baby?" 

Calum nodded his head even though the older couldn't see him, Ashton knew.

"O-Okay, Ash."

With that they both hung up, Calum sat on the ground; his arms wrapped around his legs which were pulled up to his chest.

Ashton walked back into the cafe all to Luke's confusion.

Somehow, the minute Luke saw the boy's face he just knew. So, Luke told Jae he had to go and of course, his friend knew it had to have been important. 

Luke took off his apron and walked up to Ashton, meeting him half-way.

"Is he okay?" 

"Calum can't get in your place, he forgot his keys at the house and Michael isn't answering."

Luke nodded and pulled his phone out of his pocket, he tried to call the blonde boy but nothing.

"Maybe his phone is dead," Ashton suggested, he already had one worried boy; he didn't need another one.

The two boys practically ran to the car and Ashton drove fast, but safe to the youngers home.

There was only one thing that could relax Michael, other than his boyfriends.

Luke had told Michael about how he'd take bubble baths and he'd feel a lot better after a long day. 

Michael had often taken bubble baths and wasn't surprised when he felt better; Luke always knew what to do.

So, Michael got up from his bed and went into the bathroom.

Luke had many bath bombs,  but the black one that melted into many colors was his favorite one. He didn't know why, but there was something about the way the colors came out of the dark ball. 

It was very relaxing to watch as the ball swirled and the colors came about. It almost was better than taking an actual bath.

Michael lit up some of the candles- the ones that smelled like fruits were his favorite- before turning off the light and getting in the tub.

The warm water was nice on his skin, it almost burned but the blonde quickly got used to the temperature.

The blonde let the water wash his thoughts away just as the color of the bath bomb transformed, Michael felt lighter.

The whole thing was so relaxing that Michael had fallen asleep for a little bit, thankfully the noise of a door opening had woken him up.

He didn't think that it was already so late that Luke would be home, then again his thoughts sometimes did go on for hours before then sun came up.

The blonde decided that it was time to get out of the now tub.

Not only because his boyfriend was home, but because his fingers had started to wrinkle.

It always made Michael giggle, the look of his fingers and how they looked like prunes.

"Michael?!" He could hear the youngers voice call out to him.

Michael felt really bad, he hadn't talked to Luke or any of his boyfriends for a while.

Strangely enough, the bath seemed to help him with his worries and thoughts.

He knew what had to happen now. 

He knew he should have trusted the three boys enough to tell them what was bothering him.

They did promise to protect him and he trusted that they would keep that promise.

"I-I'm in the bathroom. Be out in a minute!" The blonde responded, he quickly got dried off and dressed.

On the other side of the door, the three boys stood patiently and relieved.

The three had thought the worse and were very happy to hear Michael's soft voice call back out to them.

Calum felt so relieved, that he fell to the floor instantly bursting into tears.

"C-Cally? Wh-What's wrong?" Michael asked as he kneeled down in front of the boy.

The Maori looked up, instantly attacking the boy with a hug, holding on tightly to the soft boy.

"I-I thought I lost you." Calum sniffled, still not letting go of the boy.

"I-...I'm not going anywhere Cally... I'm sorry." 

Michael felt bad, the whole time he was being dragged down by his thoughts he never stopped and thought about how the boys would feel.

He felt stupid for believing his stupid thoughts, of course, the three cared for Michael.

They've cared for him since the first day.

"I-I need to tell you guys something..." The blonde confessed, looking up at the two boys before looking back at Calum.

sorry guys, it's a bit short but honestly, it's just a filler. I figured I'd try and finish up this chap and post it since I had some extra time. It's not the best and it's really rushed through. I'm not even going to read over it right now because I know if I do then I wont even post it. 

Anyway...yee
