"I'm sitting with Calum on the plane!" Michael yelled as we walked through the tunnel leading towards the plane.
"Fuck off, I am," I scowled at my brother and nudged his shoulder, an 'oomph' leaving his lips.
"I will rip the braids out of your head Maddison, don't try me," I turned to make a witty comeback to my idiot brother but an arm wrapped it's way around my shoulder, the other arm wrapping around Michael's.
"Ladies please, there's enough of Cal for everyone," Calum smirked at me and winked before grinning in Michael's direction.
"No way José," I giggled and pushed Calum's arm off of my shoulder.
"Keep dreaming Cal," Michael scoffed and pushed Calum away as well. Calum pouted and walked ahead of us to join Luke. Luke was being unusually quiet today. Maybe he was tired. I wasn't sure.
I whipped my head to the right when I felt an arm loop around my own. I smiled when I saw a familiar head of curly hair and warm hazel eyes.
"You ready for another crazy trip around the world Madds?" I chuckled and held onto Ashton's bicep as a flight attendant showed us to our seats.
"Mmhm, I'm ready for more crazy adventures with you lot," I flashed Ashton a toothy grin as we took our seats. Michael and Calum were behind us and Luke was in front of us, alone, with his earphones in.
"Can I have the window seat please?" Ashton asked as he finished putting our bags in the overhead baggage holders. I rolled my eyes and smiled widely, nodding my head. He giggled and sat down quickly, strapping himself in.
"You're such a child," I laughed and sat beside him, buckling myself in.
////////////////////////////
We were 45 minutes into the flight already, Ashton was watching things out of his window, his cheek pressed against the glass. Calum and Michael were sharing a pair of earphones, watching something on Michael's phone and Luke was still sitting quietly by himself, he hadn't said a thing to anyone since we got on the plane.
I bit my lip as my gaze remained focused on the boy in the seat in front of me. Normally I could read people very easily by their expressions, but today, for the life of me, I couldn't quiet figure out what Luke was feeling.
"Hey Ash, do you know what's up with Luke?" I nudged the boy beside me, startling him slightly. He shrugged while leaning over me slightly to grab his earphones from his backpack that was under my feet.
"Nope, he's been quiet since we got up this morning," I bit my lip again as Ashton plugged his headphones into in his phone and stuck one in his right ear. He extended the other ear bud out to me, offering me to take it. I shook my head slightly before sighing.
"I'm going to go see if he's alright," I moved some stuff from between my feet over to Ashton before standing up.
"Okie dokie," Ashton sent me weary grin before he stuck the other ear bud into is left ear and started tapping away on his phone.
I got up and moved into the seat in front of me, beside Luke. He didn't seem to realise my presence until I tapped his shoulder lightly. He looked over at me, a sad smile graced his face, he sighed before removing his earphones.
"Hi Maddi," his voice was a scratchy whisper, indicating he hadn't spoken much at all today.
"Hi Luke, you looked a little lonely so I thought I would keep you company for a little while," I sent him a sweet smile, deciding to lay my head on his shoulder, my 4am wake up only just starting to catch up with me.
"You tired?" Luke asked quietly, his voice starting to come back to him, it was deep and raspy, sending shivers down my spine.
"Mmhmm, how come you sat all by yourself?" Luke shrugged and patted my cheek.
"Are you okay Luke?" My head left his shoulder and I turned myself around enough in the seat to face the blonde boy.
"I'm fine Maddi," he grumbled.
"You sure? You don't sound fine?" I traced circles with my pointer finger on his forearm. He looked down at my finger and let out a puff of air.
"I'm fine Maddi, I promise," he gave me a weak smile and pat my hand that was still tracing circles on his arm. I seriously doubted that he was fine but I dropped the subject and placed my head back on his shoulder. I felt him shift slightly underneath me before his fingers interlocked with mine. I smiled.
Luke was a sensitive person, but you'd never know it from his personality that is shown on stage. On stage Luke is lively, cocky, perky and the happiest he could possibly be. Behind closed doors he is still all of those things, but he's also thoughtful, quiet, sweet and sensitive. He's also surprisingly cuddly. He's down for a good cuddle session with anyone, Calum, Michael, Ash, me.
Luke let out a sad sounding sigh and placed his head on mine. "If I promise to tell you why I've been quiet later can you stay here with me for a little while please?" Luke's fragile voice made my heart break slightly.
"Of course Luke, you don't even have to ask," I stroked his thumb gently with my own thumb as a means of comfort.
"I was joking before you know," Luke started, "about the whole boob thing." I had to stifle a chuckle. Only Luke could ruin a quiet moment like this by bringing up boobs.
"Oh, so you think that Michael has better boobs than me?"
"Wait- no. I- um, I meant that- I can't dig myself out of this hole can I?" I giggled and shook my head, squeezing his hand.
"It's alright Luke, I get it," he breathed a sigh of relief and squeezed my hand back.
"Thank you for sitting with me Maddi," Luke whispered.
