Last Look Before Goodbye ~Alex~

Home Is Where The Heart To Heart Is

Home. That's the place he felt safest. When he was in that room. When he wanted to get away. All he could think of was home. He just wanted to feel safe, but his home wasn't his own anymore and his sense of security was violated.

"Not here" he thought "oh god, please tell me my mom is ok."

Luke stood behind him as he held onto the open windowsill and climbed inside. As he broke down at the sight of a doorway and crumbled to the floor.

"Why are we here?" Luke questioned lightly and Teddy turn abruptly

"Why are you here? Come to steal more songs?" He hissed harshly at Luke with tears in his eyes

"What is with that?" Luke challenged also climbing through the window.

"What's with what?"

"Accusing my band of stealing your songs. We never met you until that night at the Orphiam." Teddy looked at Luke angrily

"You did, you did. I still remember waking up one morning and my friends telling me you released a song called 'Last Look Before Goodbye' that was my song. MY SONG! I wrote it for my sister." Luke gave Teddy a soft look before coming to a realization

"Bobby told us he wrote that song. We didn't know... it was the song that got us into the Orphiam." Teddy looked at Him. Really looked at him this time. He looked guilty his mouth turned down into a frown and his eyebrows furrowed. His shoulders sagging dejectedly at the new information.

"He asked me to hangout one day. I told him I was a song writer. I- I told him that I always had my song book with me. I didn't think that he'd rip a couple pages out when I went to the restroom." He turned back to the doorway and attempted to chip the paint on it "I should of asked if you guys knew about the songs, but I was just so mad. What would you do? If you found out someone stole your songs? Even the personal ones?"

"I'd probably treat them the exact same way you treated us when you first met us. Maybe worse," He shrugged "b- but you have to know Reggie, Alex, and I would have never taken that gig at the Orphiam if we had known we were getting in on your song."

"Yeah, I got that impression by that kicked puppy look on your face." Teddy playfully shoved Lukes shoulder causing him to smile in relief.

"You never did tell me what we're doing here" Luke noticed Teddy tense up a bit.

"This was my house. T- this was my sisters room. That doorway had marks on it, memories. Memories of my sister. I just wanted to see them one more time before I never come back."

Luke walked to the doorway to stand beside Teddy and grabbed his hand softly causing Teddy to look at him with a vulnerable expression. "Come back with me? To Julies." Teddy looked at him confused "The girl who held a cross out at us." Teddy laughed at the memory before nodding and wishing he was there.

And not once during there heart felt coversation did Luke or Teddy notice a young girl with a Sunset Curve tee shirt looming in the window with an awe struck expression.
