You can't sleep

Calum

I lay on Calum's bunk on the tour bus, staring up at the velvet ceiling, unable to fall asleep. I sighed as I looked to my side to see Calum fast asleep, his arm wrapped around my waist as he softly snored into my neck and his parted lips slightly touched my skin. I sighed again. I couldn't help but feel slightly frustrated at him, as he was well aware that I couldn't sleep on the tour bus, yet he had backed Luke up when insisting that driving through the night was the best option.

"Fuck this." I mumbled to myself as I pulled the curtain back and gently eased myself out Calum's grip. I quietly jumped down, trying not to wake the others as I padded along the bus and to the sofa. I sat down and wrapped the blanket around my body.

"Babe?" I looked up and sighed as I saw Calum's head popping out from behind his curtain.

"What are you doing up?" he asked, looking at me with furrowed eyebrows as he got out of the bunk and walked towards me.

"You know I can't sleep on this thing, especially when it's moving." I huffed. He chuckled and sat next to me.

"Would it help if I sang to you?" he asked, curling his arm around my waist and pulling me closer.

"Maybe." I sighed as I rested my head in his neck.

"Okay. Well, let me try it." He nodded as he lay down, pulling me with him so that I was laying on top of him.

"She sleeps alone, my heart wants to come home, I wish I was, I wish I was, beside you." He sang quietly, gently running his hands through my hair.

"She lies awake, I'm trying to find the words to say, I wish I was, I wish I was, beside you." He continued, his words mixed with his hands running through my hair enough to push me into the gentle hold of sleep.

Luke

I sat on the windowsill, looking out of the window as the snow pelted down outside. I looked at Luke, a small smile on my lips as the moonlight bounced off of my sleeping husband's face and body perfectly, making him look like an angel in disguise. I looked back outside, smoothing Luke's dress shirt over my pregnant bump as I continued to watch the snow fall.

"Babe?" I looked back at Luke and gave him a small smile as he looked at me. He sat up.

"What are you doing up?" he asked as he climbed out of bed and padded to me.

"I can't sleep." I shrugged, looking back out of the window.

"The baby keeping you up again?" he asked, gently cupping my bump as he rubbed my back with his other hand.

"No, it's not her fault. I just...can't sleep." I shrugged again before resting my head against the window.

"Don't you think it's so peaceful? Knowing that the rest of the world is asleep, and you're alone? Just for an hour or two?" I asked, looking at Luke. He smiled gently at me.

"You're not alone, though. You have me, and our daughter." He nodded, looking into my eyes.

"True. And I wouldn't trade the two of you for anything." I shook my head. Luke's smile widened and he kissed my head as he gently picked me up bridal style. He carried me back to the bed before gently putting me down and climbing in the other side.

"Goodnight, babe. I love you so much." He mumbled as he wrapped an arm around my waist and pulled me closer.

"Goodnight, Luke. I love you so much too." I whispered before curling into the warmth of his body and letting my eyes flutter shut.

Michael

I sat on the garden sofa, looking up at the night sky and all of the stars before taking a sip of my coffee. Suddenly, my phone started to ring. I looked down and a smile spread across my lips as Michael's face and name flashed on the screen. I picked it up and put it to my ear.

"Hey, baby." I spoke.

"Oh, hey, I didn't think you'd pick up." He chuckled.

"You're not the only one in this relationship who suffers from insomnia." I smiled, making him laugh.

"True that. But, I'm the only one with three fucking annoying bandmate man children, who are all currently absolutely fucked and so are singing ABBA at the top of their lungs." He spoke, making me smile and bite my lip.

"Okay, you win." I chuckled.

"So, what's my favourite girl been up to?" he asked, making me smile.

"Nothing much. Just counting the days until you come home." I admitted.

"Aww, baby, I know, I am too. Fourteen days and counting." He spoke.

"Fourteen more sleepless nights." I nodded, tears pricking my eyes.

"They don't have to be." He replied. My eyebrows furrowed.

"How do you mean, Mikey?" I asked.

"Let me sing you to sleep." He spoke gently. I smiled and bit my lip.

"I would absolutely love that, Michael Gordon." I nodded, making him chuckle as I lay down on the sofa.

"Here I am waking up, still can't sleep on your side, there's your coffee cup, lipstick stain fades with time." He started, making me close my eyes.

"If I could dream long enough, you'd tell me I'll be just fine. I'll be just fine." He sang gently, lulling me further into the grip of sleep.

Ashton

I opened my eyes for what must have been the twentieth time that night and groaned quietly as the hotel clock still only read three fifteen. I looked down and smiled slightly as Ashton's arm was wrapped securely around my waist, holding my back tightly against his naked chest. I looked over my shoulder and couldn't help but let my smile widen at the sight of my asleep fiancé, his lips slightly parted as a soft snore left them. I sighed and looked straight ahead again. Three sixteen. Usually, I didn't have any issues sleeping in Ashton's arms, but tonight was different. I was well aware that it would be the last time for a few months that I'd be sleeping in his arms. I sighed and shook my head as I gently lifted Ashton's arm so that I could climb out of bed. I grabbed my phone and my earphones before plugging them in and sitting down on the chair in the corner of the hotel room. I pressed "shuffle" and smiled to myself as "Why won't you love me?" started to play through my earphones. I curled into myself and shut my screen off as I just sat there, listening. Suddenly, I felt the familiar pair of lips gently kiss down my neck as one earphone was removed from my ear.

"What you doing up, baby girl?" Ashton asked as he crouched down beside the chair. I shrugged and looked down at him.

"I can never sleep the night before you either go away, or I have to go home." I admitted. He sighed and gave me a small smile before putting the earphone that he'd just taken out into his own ear.

"How about we dance then?" he smiled as he took my hands and stood me up.

"Ash, it's three in the morning." I laughed.

"Don't lie to yourself, baby, I know how much you love dancing. Anyway, we need practice for the wedding." He smirked goofily, making me laugh as he curled his arms around my waist and landed his hands on my lower back. I curled my arms over his shoulders and closed my eyes as he swayed us to the music, his lips gently pressing kisses against my neck.

"I love you. So much." He whispered against my skin.

"I know you do. I love you too." I nodded as we continued to sway. My eyes started to droop, making my body go slightly limp in Ashton's arms.

"There we go. We always get there eventually." Ashton chuckled, making me smile tiredly as he picked me up bridal style and carried me back to the bed.
