when he was drowning in this world,
and you let go,"

Luke Hemmings had been neighbors with Michael Clifford for as long as he could remember. Playing outside in the warm California air, having late night conversations through their windows that were right across from one another. It was everything a child could want at the age of 11.
Michael had been traveling the country with his family for the past five years for his fathers business. The Clifford's still owned the house right next door to the Hemmings.
Now both boys being 16. Michael's parents wanting him to finish up high school in the city he grew up in. You could say when Luke found out he was ecstatic. Finally getting see that his best friend Michael Clifford was moving back.
Little did he know he was in for a big surprise.
