Desi's POV

Its been 3 days since Luke's crazy return to New York. I loved Luke but he was kind of unpredictable right now. He was drunk a lot. He'd stumble in late night drunk as fuck. He'd just be locked up in his room during the day.

Heather took the kids out to the movies and Nick and Mason just got home and brought me some food. "Thanks." I say opening my mcdonalds.

"Okay so I flew to LA for one day. One. Im back again." Sam says walking in. "Wheres Lucas?" He takes some fries out of my bag.

"Nick just went to drag him out of bed."

"Has anybody told mom and dad?" Sophia says walking in.

"We don't need them to worry- or Justin. Hes only 16." Mason says. "What? I told him to come." Sam says and I look at him. "Damn what I miss?" Alex says walking in last. "We missing siblings?" He asks

"Yeah. Lucas." Sam says as Nick walks down. "He said he'd be down in a minute."

Nick sits down next to me. Its been a strange three days. Nick's been on Luke watch. I understand why. When it came to mental health he seemed to be the one to understand best.

"Wow its a reunion." Luke says walking downstairs. "Am I glad to see you guys." He says as Sam hugs him. "You back for good?"

"Eh no I don't know..." Luke says. "The galleries are up and running and managed well." He says. "I do not really need to be there."

"So you staying here?"

"No. Since ive been living there ever since after college I never got property here but I am gonna get a place to stay as soon as possible. I don't wanna stay too long around the kids like this.." He says. That was our Luke.

"My crib is empty." Sam says. "Im in LA mostly." He reminds him. I think you saw with the Adams brothers when things got tough who was closest to who. In need Nick would call Mason and Mason would call Alex. Luke came to Nick knowing Nick always had his back and here is Sam offering his house.

"I think he should stay here for the mean time." Nick says looking at Sam. "I'm not a kid anymore Nick. At 18 your parental Responsibility finished remember?" Luke jokes.

"There is nothing funny about this situation." Nick reminds him. "Im on suicide watch. Youre clearly an alcoholic and youve now become a woman beater. You just cured your hangover with a shot. I can tell."

"Nick." I say stopping him.

"You can hate me all you want but you need help." Nick carries on ignoring me.

"Shut up." Mason says. "Not helping."

"I'm not an alcoholic." Luke says.

"Well I do not give a shit." Nick carries on. "This lovely intervention? Not the one." Nick gets up leaving the room looking at his phone.

"God hes extra pissed today?" Alex says and I sigh.

"The only way you can get over your drinking problem and this state youre in is professional help." Nick says returning into the living room followed by 4 guys.

This was crazy. Nick didn't even run the idea by us. Mason sighs rubbing his eyes. "Nick what the fuck." He says

"Trust me you'll thank me later." Nick says looking at Luke.

"I'm not going." Luke frowns.

"Dude its an intervention where we do our sad stories and guilt trip him into becoming better? Not this. What the fuck." Alex says getting up.
