"Ray! Your food is done" I hear Michael shout from downstairs.
I text him saying I wasn't hungry and carry on drawing, soon luke came bursting in the door.
"come on your gotta eatttt" he whines flopping on my bed.
"no I donttttt" I whine back.
"hm we'll see about that"
Before I can react he throws me over his shoulder making me laugh and runs through the house like a maniac
He laughs and sits me at the dinner table
"Ray do you still want to a musician?" Mike finally breaks the silence as I push my food around the plate
I nod to answer his question making him smile "can you play any instruments"
I nod again and point at him
"you can still play the guitar?" He asks in shock as he taught me when we were younger and I haven't played in a while. I nod.
"it's been a while since I assume anyways you still sing?"Luke, Ashton and calum just sit in shock that he's actually talking to me normally. Oh how much things have changed.
"Ray have you ever considered actually talking?"
I gritt my teeth. He's back. Did everything he said last night mean nothing?
"yes. Have you considered to stop talking? It's much easier" calum chokes on his food and Ash looks at me in shock, luke sits with a smirk on his face.
"ray for god sake, you know I didn't mean it like that- like actually talking again and letting people in"
"last time I let someone in who was meant to be there I got hurt. I keep my distance. Its easier"
I get up leaving my plate on the table and walking to my room slamming the door
I stare at the drawings scattered around the room before collecting them all and run downstairs with them in my hand
I open the bin and go to throw them in there but before I can a hand pulls back my arm, I look up to see luke stopping me
"what are you doing?! Those are your drawing" he states and I just stare at him.
I throws them ontop of the bin and storm to my room again.
Michael's pov
I walk to the bin and pull out the stack of papers she threw in there..
"t-they're drawings of me. Of us.." I say and turn to them
I put them on the island counter and we spread them out getting a better view of all of them.. But one caught my eye

"we look so young in theses sketches.. She really looked at pictures" calum explains, picking up different drawings and studying them
"I-it's amazing.. I'm gonna hang it up.." I really wanted it to be somewhere I could see and just by looking at it I immediately thought of her
"I'm gonna go and check on her-" he was getting too close to her and I didn't want luke hurting her. I didn't want luke dating her.. She's 18 in less than a day..
"no!" He stops and looks at me in a bit of shock. "your getting too close to her and I don't want her hurt"
"Michael. You are what's hurting her. Look at what it took for you to see it"
"no luke fucking hell your falling in love with her because she's clingy! She's fucking less than a day away from being 18! Your 24! I'm not letting your hurt her!!"
"fine. I'll stay away from her.. Is that's what you want Mike. I'm done fighting.."
