I Won't Give Up ~ Michael Clifford

0:69

Luke;

I felt bad but not at the same time for letting the truth come out about Ash and Bree but I'm no longer letting Michael throw my name into every argument that has to do with Bree; he had to know that he can't always blame me anymore, I was sick and tired of it.

Michael just left the meeting room with the look of disappointment and rage, I swear I heard him yell out in anger shortly after he left. I sat back in my chair with my arms crossed over my chest, a slight smirk written all over my face; Laurence gave me a glare, clearing his throat before speaking.

"Lose that smirk, Luke. Why would you do that, huh? It's bad enough you two have a feud but starting one up between Michael and Ashton?" He asked, slowly starting to gather papers and his shit into his briefcase.

"I'm sick and tired of being the only one to blame when it comes to those two, yes I love- well like Bree but when I said we accidentally fell asleep, I really meant it.". I explained while sighing, "Can I go yet? Or am I still stuck here for more pointless lectures? Pretty sure that we've most likely been through it all before."

Laurence waved his hand, waving me off so I got out of my seat and throwing my duffle over my shoulder before leaving out the door. God, I can't wait to be back home, I can cuddle up next to Petunia while we watch Netflix and eat until we can't anymore. So I call out for a cab and head off home, looking through my camera roll to pass time.

Bree;

The tour was cancelled due to what happened between Mikey and Luke, so Derek arranged a flight for the kids and I to Vancouver while Ash, Miles and Calum got to go home to Sydney; so before we boarded, I called Ricky to see if he'd be able to pick us up from the airport, he agreed but here we are. We landed nearly an hour ago and Ricky was nowhere to be seen or heard of, I've left him messages and called him so many times but he hasn't replied nor called back.

To: Ricky
Hey? We landed nearly an hour ago, where are you?

"Where's daddy, mom?" Dec asked from where he was sitting, feeding Rowan and I sighed deeply.

"I don't know bub, how about we catch a ride in a taxi to a restaurant, yeah?" I say and I could see the sadness in my boys eyes but that got replaced with a eye roll and an aggravated groan, he got up carefully and gave me Rowan while he threw his backpack on and started walking  away. I place Rowan in her carrier and start grabbing our duffle bags before starting to follow Dec. 

"Bree! Hey, B!" I turn around and see Ricky jogging up to us, out of breath when he's right in front of me, "I'm so sorry I'm so late, I got caught up in doing stuff with my son then I took a nap that was supposed to be ten minutes but turned into an hour then Kelsey wanted me to run to the store for her, wait, where's Dec?"

"Your son was waiting patiently for you to come pick us up but started getting restless so he threw a silent tantrum and walked off on me." I say, placing Rowan down on the ground along with the bags.

"Man, I'm so-" Ricky started but I held my hand up and cut him off.

 "No, god! He was real excited to see you, Ricky. It's hard on him to be away from you for long periods of time, especially when we go on tour. The least you could've done was called back or even texted back to let me know you were going to be late!" I exclaimed, stomping my foot as I exhaled deeply.

"So this is my fault? I'm not the one dating, and engaged, to a Rockstar and goes away with him for months on end to the point where I don't even see my own kid for such a long time! I have a family of my own to take care of now, it's not all about you guys anymore, it's also about my girlfriend and son too. I'm sorry for being an hour late and I'm sorry our son threw a tantrum because I wasn't on time but I'm here now." Ricky raised his voice, his hands going everywhere while he was talking and I scoffed, shaking my head.
