I woke up in the next morning to someone shaking me. Opening my eyes I saw it was Alex, he seemed deeply concerned about me, worried lines in his brow.
"Um you were thrashing and mumbling in your sleep. I thought you were having a nightmare," he says shyly fearing that I'd yell at him.
"I must've been dreaming," I mumbled sitting up and rubbing the sleep from my eyes.
"Look I know I've said it already but we really are sorry but yesterday. The place we went too was like this time warp. We told Willie that we needed to be done before nine but it was like magic was keeping us there," he explains face saddened as he looked truly sincere.
"I shouldn't have yelled at you all, I was just upset and should've given you time to explain," I admit letting out a sigh.
Alex sat down beside me and pulled me into a hug. Holding on tight and I hugged back, wrapping my arms around him just as tightly.
We pulled away after a few seconds, he ruffled my hair "So are we forgiven?" Luke asks causing me to jump, since I didn't know he was there. Turns out Reggie was there as well.
"Gosh, don't scared me like that. My heart needs to be beating for me to be alive," I exclaimed placing my hand over my heart. "Yeah I forgive you. Alex explained everything,"
The smiles widened as they pulled us all into a big group hug. It felt right but unfortunately I was at the center of it and in turn was being squished by the guys, meaning I couldn't breath that well.
"I can't breath," I croaked out making them loosen their grip on me allowing me to breath again.
They all pulled away before leaving me to get ready for school. I showered and got dressed in some sweats and an oversized hoodie. Topping it off with a black beanie. Coming down from the loft I noticed Luke was the only one still there. He had a grin on his face.
"What are you smiley about?" I asked grabbing my bag and slinging it over my shoulder.
"Last night you said you were falling for me," he chuckled and that's when my cheeks went red.
"Yeah I'm not having this conversation with you right now," I state making my way to the door, he nudged me as I made my way out.
"You can't avoid it forever," he jokes as I shake my head, getting into my car and driving to school.

Julie had missed her first three classes today because Flynn decided to let her sleep in. Which wasn't good because she missed a calculus test. I had a decent day at school, which was fine but now it was time to head back home.When I got back all was quiet except for the sound of a guitar and Luke singing a very sad song.
First things first
We start the scene in reverse
All of the lines rehearsed
Disappeared from my mindWhen things got loud
One of us running out
I should have turned around
But I had too much prideNo time for goodbyes
Didn't get to apologise
Pieces of a clock that lies brokenIf I could take us back
If I could just do that
And write in every empty space
The words I love you in replace
And every time would not erase me
If you could only know
I never let you go
And the words I most regret
Are the ones I never meant to leave
Unsaid EmilySilent days
Mysteries and mistakes
Who'd be the first to break
Guess we're alike that wayHe said, she said
Conversations in my head
And that's just where they're gonna stay foreverIf I could take us back
If I could just do that
And write in every empty space
The words I love you in replace
Then maybe time would not erase me
If you could only know
I never let you go
And the words I most regret
Are the ones I never meant to leave
Unsaid EmilyIf I could take us back
If I could just do that
And write in every empty space
The words I love you in replace
Then maybe time would not erase me
If you could only know
I never let you go
And the words I most regret
Are the ones I never meant to leave
Unsaid EmilyI watched him through the window as he sang tears pouring down his face. I was about to go in and comfort him but he poofed away and not long after I felt a hand on my shoulder.
Turning around I saw Alex and Reggie. Alex was the one who had his hand in my shoulder, they both had sadden looks.
"What happened? He was all happy when I left," I asked worried for him.
"Well Julie basically yelled at him, when we told her that we booked a gig for tonight trying to make up for last night. Said he only cared about himself. That song he wrote about his mom, how he wished to have set things right with her but then he died. Of course he cares about more than himself," Alex explains which makes my heart ache as a tear escapes my eye.
"To make matters worse, it's also his birthday," Reggie says with a sigh.
They then went off to explain things to Julie. I was bummed out but knew I wanted to make Luke feel better. So I got back in my car and drove to my old house, well I say old but I still own it. With my inheritance I can still keep it as long as I keep the payments up.
When I got there, I went inside and smiled at all the art that lingered the walls. It was nice seeing the house again but I was here for something else.
When I found it a smile crept on my face as I took it off the wall before locking up and making my way back home.
I arrived to see everyone including Luke inside, playing. I'm glad Julie was able to forgive them. I walked inside and was greeted with smiles. Taking my gift I made my way over to Luke and presented it to him.
"Happy birthday," I say holding it out to him and his eyes widen.
"Is that signed by Jimmy Hendrix?".........
