i miss you

How it happened

*Kaitlyn's POV*

I couldn't breathe. Couldn't think. What did he mean? Luke in an accident? What? "I don't get it. What do you mean? That made no sense. Luke couldn't have... he is fine, right? Calum...tell me he's okay." I pleaded.

"Hey, Katy. Its Ash. Luke is... well the doctors say he'll wake up when he is ready to. They say he can hear us, and feel us with him, so now its up to him to wake up. We aren't doing it for him, so I was wondering..." he paused. "Will you come here? I think he's waiting for you." 

All at once, everything made sense. These feelings I'd been running from, the reason I turned away from someone who meant everything to me. He was why I smiled, the reason I laughed. I was so in love with Luke that it scared me. What would happen if he left? If we got together, only to break up? I wouldn't only break, I'd break past the point of mending. So the question was, is he worth that risk?

"I can't just hop on a plane to Australia. I don't have that kind of money." (A/N but daddy does.. only katy will understand)

"Don't worry about that. I'll get you tickets. Just get here as soon as you can."

It was then I realized, if it were the other way around, Luke would drop everything just to see me. He was definitely worth the risk. "Can you get those tickets for right now?"

"Already done. Just... hurry." I've never heard any of the guys like this. "Oh, and Katy. Do you mind...keeping this just between us? Don't tell Erika. I don't want her to have another thing to worry about when I'm sure he will be just fine."

"I'm not sure-"

"Just.. please? I'll explain it to her later."

"She'll be pissed if she is the only one who doesn't know." I warned.

"I know...I'll take care of it though." he said and added. "just us, okay? Get on the plane and someone will be there to pick you up then take you to the hospital."

"Okay." I said hanging up and finding something to wear in a hurry before rushing out the door.

Arriving in Australia.

"Katy?" I heard a quiet voice behind me which made me turn around quickly.

"Michael!" I screamed and threw my arms around him. I hadn't cried since I got the call, but the moment Michael wrapped his arms around me, I couldn't hold the tears back any longer.

"Shh, Katy. He's going to be fine, alright? When he knows you're here, he'll wake up and everything is going to be just like normal. Don't worry, Kid." he wiped my tears away with the sleeve of his shirt. I only nodded because I couldn't speak past the lump in my throat.

Michael led me out to the taxi and once we were both settled in, I leaned on Mikey for support. "How did it happen?"

He was quiet, and I almost thought he want going to answer, but he did. "He was leaving a girls house." I closed my eyes against the burning in my heart. "He's been crazy without you. At first, he was quiet. Sometimes, the boys would catch a glimpse of a tear at a concert. But then, he'd have these fits at night where he'd yell at you in his sleep. And then he became really distant. Finally, one night, he and Ash were talking and he told him he needed to find a way to get you out of his head. So...earlier tonight, he went to a friends house, and...he was planning to sleep with her, but at the last minute, he freaked and ran. He called me to ask if he could stay the night because he didn't want to be alone and then he told me everything. He wasn't thinking straight when he got into the car.." I felt Mikey tense with every word he spoke at the same time I felt the tears soak my face. This was all my fault. "Its all my fault!" Michael screamed. "I knew he wasn't okay! Why did I let him drive? If I had just picked him up! He wouldn't have run that red light! That semi wouldn't have broken him! I'm so sorry, Katy. Its my fault. I'm sorry." He cried, grabbing onto me for support.
