-calum-

i snuggle in to luke's torso and take in his body heat, luke is warm, and i like that.

"calum? why are you awake?" luke asks me in a soft tone, his voice is hoarse and raspy. i like that too.

"i'm not tired" i mumble back, closing my eyes from lack of sleep, yet, still not being able to fall asleep.

"do you want me to sing you to sleep?" he whispers, i sigh and nod slightly, luke moves out from underneath me and slings his arms around my waist.

"lifes, a tangled web, of cellphone calls and hashtag-i-don't-knows.

and you, you're so caught up, in all the blinking lights and dial tones.

i admit i'm a bit of a victim in the world-wide system too.

but i've found my sweet escape when i'm alone with you.

tune out the static sound of the city that never sleeps.

here in the moment on the dark side of the screen." by now i had entwined our legs and i was stroking his hair as he continued to sing.

"i like the summer rain, i like the sounds you make, we put the world away, we get so disconnected.

you are my getaway, you are my favourite place, we put the world away, we get so disconnected." his angelic voice sang softly, my eyelids were beginning to droop and i could feel my heart rate slowing.

"hands, around my waist, you're counting up the hills across the sheets.

and i'm a falling star, a glimmer lighting up these cotton streets.

i admit i'm a bit of a fool for playing by the rules, but i've found my sweet escape when i'm alone with you.

tune out the static sound of the city that never sleeps, here in the moment on the dark side of the screen." luke's soft voice mixed with the rain pelting down on the roof outside was heaven.

"i like the summer rain, i like the sounds you make, we put the world away, we get so disconnected.

you are my getaway, you are my favourite place, we put the world away, yeah we're so disconnected.

turn off the radio, those late night tv shows, hang up the telephone, and just be here with me.

turn off the radio, those late night tv shows, hang up the telephone, and just be here with me.

i like the summer rain, i like the sounds you make, we put the world away, we get so disconnected.

you are my getaway, you are my favourite place, we put the world away, yeah we're so disconnected,

i like the summer rain, i like the sounds you make, we put the world away, we get so disconnected.

you are my getaway, you are my favourite place, we put the world away, yeah we're so disconnected."

"goodnight baby, i love you" luke whispers, pressing a short kiss to my temple, i incoherently repeat what he said as i feel myself drift off.

these are the moments when i finally feel safe.

safe.
