Dear Michael

I don't have energy to get out of your bed. I don't have energy to go downstairs and face Ashton and Calum. I don't have energy to go to your funeral and see your parents..

I don't have energy to see you lifeless.

- Luke

Luke walked into Michaels bathroom and slowly examined himself in the mirror. He didn't look well. He fixed his hair so it was in a quiff.

Well here goes nothing

He made his way of michaels room and downstairs to where Ashton and Calum were sitting. Luke stood by the door and pulled out his phone and went on Twitter

"Luke I'm so sorry abo--"

"It's fine Ashton" Luke whispered

Luke went on Twitter and saw all the fans icons were of Michael. Even looking at pictures of Michael hurt. 3 hashtags were trending world wide right now.

#ReatInPeaceMichael
#Michael Clifford
#RIPMichael

The hashtags made Luke frown. He still fully didn't want to accept that his Sunshine was gone. Luke typed in something and tweeted it

@Luke5sos I'm not ready for today

He got tons of replies. Some supporting some not. He mostly had nice replies. He exit Twitter to show his background of him and Michael. Luke was kissing michaels cheek. He turned off the phone. He didn't want to break down

"The cars here" Ashton said and Luke walked out of the house

*

There was many people at the funeral. Luke saw michaels parents and got really mad. His dad looked bored out of his mind. Everyone was making speeches. Luke was next and he was beyond nervous

Ashton was done and now it was Lukes turn. He stepped up and looked out at the big crowd. Everyone was either crying or staring blankly. Luke sighed shakily before looking down

"I guess you could say for me and Michael it was hate at first sight. We were mean to each other because of a talent show back at school. We basically fought over a noob called Calum hood" everyone lightly laughed and Calum smiled at the memory

"But we became friends. We became friends, even started a band. We became famous living the dream. But along the way we became closer. We became lovers. Lovers in this helpless world. If people didn't accept us we didn't care"

"Of course after a while it started getting to me, and along with Michaels past It got to him to. I did something stupid because it got to me and in return the one thing that mattered to me got snatched right out of my arms" Luke said while tears slowly streamed down his face

"My light, my sunshine, my happiness.. Is gone, and it's all my fault" Luke said while looking down in shame. He silently walked off the small stage and ran down the isle.

He ran outside because his chest felt right. He ran outside slamming the doors open and stumbled to the small garden in the front. He was breathing heavy trying to catch the fresh hair.

Ashton and Calum came running out after him and saw him sitting against the wall of the garden. His breathing was at a normal pace now. He had his head in his hands with his knees against his chest. Ashton and Calum glanced at each other before sitting by him and rubbing his back.

"I think they're burying him soon" Calum whispered to Ashton and he nodded.

Luke finally looked up at Ashton and layed his head down on his shoulder sighing sadly. Ashton wrapped his arm around Luke letting him lean against him.

Ashton felt bad for Luke. He knows he blames himself but he shouldn't. Ashton knew he was gonna have to watch over Luke and try to help him get through this. It's gonna be difficult but he'd do anything for his best friend.

After a few minutes of sitting there the doors to the funeral home slammed open and Michaels mom and dad walked out. The must have not seen the 3 boys sitting there since they were sitting against the side of the garden.

"Why are we even here?" Michaels dad growled while ripping his tie off. Lukes head shot up looking at them

"Because we have to! That's our son! Plus we just had to show up and act like we care" his mother said while rolling her eyes. Luke got up ignoring Ashtons protest.

"You sick son of a bitch!" Luke spat while marching over and punching his dad square in the jaw causing him to stumble. When he looked back at Luke he looked beyond angry.

He walked over to Luke who was ready to kick the shit out of the rude father. But Ashton stood between them. But because Ashton is slightly smaller it didn't end well. Michaels dad punched Luke causing him to completely fall over and he started kicking Lukes stomach

It was a completely unfair advantage. Luke was 6 feet tall with little bit of muscle, which michaels dad was at least 6'5 and had lots of muscle. Ashton and Calum pulled Michaels dad away.

Lukes parents came running out with a bunch of other people. Ashton went to check on Luke and saw him shakily standing up. If Luke wasn't how he was then he'd still be laying on the ground unable to move. But because he had so much anger built up on him. He wasn't weak or afraid. He is a very angry person. So he ran right at Michaels dad
