If You Don't Know - 5 Seconds of Summer

A/N:

This can also be referred to "Breakups"

This song is my all time favourite and one of the most unappreciated 5sos songs ever, and Michael was my fave x

Luke:

I want you to want me this way,

And I need you to need me to stay

If you say that you don’t feel a thing

If you don’t know, let me go, let me go, let me go, let me go

If you don’t know then just let me go

”I don’t uhm, understand.” Luke mumbled with his fingers pressed into his cheeks, his eyebrows furrowing as he glared at you sitting on the coffee table in front of him, watching you as you let out a smaller sigh. ”I knew you wouldn’t.” You said letting out the breath you were holding and looking up at him sympathetically. I wish you could though.” ”I just want us to be together.” He stated stubborn, crossing his arms and wanting an explanation from you. ”It’s not that easy for me, Luke!” You exclaimed, Luke’s eyes going wide. ”Then tell me why! I don’t want all of this to get ruined by some dumb shit!” You let out a sigh before rolling your eyes at him, loosening your arms from having them crossed before. ”You’ve changed. I’ve changed, you’ve grown and I’ve grown. I just don’t feel like this relationship is having any goal anymore. You’re away all the time, I have work to take care of and the house while you’re not here and I miss you Luke.” ”Don’t bring my career into this Y/N, I beg you.” Luke said through gritted teeth which made you roll your eyes. ”It’s your career that’s putting a stop sign to this Luke even if you won’t realize it yourself! It’s pulling us apart and that’s something we have to accept as human beings. I’m okay with it, I know you would prefer to have such a career like that than being with me.” ”Don’t see it like that.” Luke pleaded angry, rolling his eyes by you. ”You know how much I love you.” ”But sometimes, you don’t just show it that much. And I need love and caring as well. I’m not saying that you’re not doing your job as a boyfriend right.. We just don’t see each other anymore. Don’t get me wrong, I still have feelings for you Luke but they’re pushed away to satisfy my own needs. Sometimes you gotta let the person you love the most go, and today I think it’s you and me who have to suffer from that. ” ”No, Y/N, No. You can’t say things like that, you can’t decide things like that I’m not some kind of toy you can throw away and then find again after some months! I have feelings too you know and I’m 50% part of this relationship in case you hadn’t noticed!” ”Don’t take it like that Luke.” You pleaded, ”But I do Y/N! If you don’t know whether you have feelings for me or not, we shouldn’t be together again if you have to question that.” Your eyes went wide as this took a whole different turn, Luke standing up from the couch and looking down at you before grabbing his coat on the cushion. ”If you don’t know, then just let me go.” Those were the last words from him before he let out a sigh, heading towards your entrance of the house and opening the front door, disappearing out of the house and probably out of your life now. And what a mess it had caused.

Calum:

You would scream, we would fight, you would call me crazy

I would laugh, you were mad but you’d always kiss me

And the shirt that I had that you always borrowed

When I woke, it was gone

There was no tomorrow

A simple little forgettable discussion between you and Calum had turned into a mind-blowing fight with a mix of screaming, tears and afterwards raspy voices and invisible marks on your hearts. But you knew that this fight would happen at some point. Things weren’t great at the moment and you and Calum both knew that at one point, the fire would start and only one of you would survive this, if not none of you. The discussion had been going on forever that you couldn’t even remember how it all had started in the first place. But that was what you and Calum had been suffering from the past weeks, glaring at each other in annoyed ways, getting mad at each other for nothing and just simply tired of each other’s companies. But that was how relationships worked out at times, and of course there were only two ways for this, either you guys would work it out, or you would call it quits and leave each other. After the fight had ended and silence had felt over the two of you like a cloud in the room, you and Calum knew that this would change a hella lot of things. And to not make anything more badly than before, Calum chose to take a pillow and a blanket from the closet before he mumbled out a goodbye, leaving the room to crash the living room to sleep, you standing dazed and confused in the bedroom for 5 minutes after, just staring at the now shut door. Calum knew that he wouldn’t get much sleep that night, but he had to fight through it, if this would be one of your normal fights, things would turn great in the morning. But when Calum woke up dazed from his sleep at 8AM he could feel that the tension had changed and something was completely wrong. He headed up the stairs to your bedroom and slowly opening the door, but to his surprise and confuse, the window was open and the curtains were off, and there was no you in the bed. Calum opened the door fully with force, looking around in the room, noticing how only his stuff was left. This was way more serious than what he had expected, normally he could just kiss you after a fight and you guys would be okay again, but this was nothing alike. Calum looked down at the mattress and noticed his shirt folded and that was when he realized how serious this was. Normally, you would always sleep in his shirt no matter what because it always felt comforting and you felt protected even if he weren’t there. But now at this point in your relationship, he could conclude that was far from what you were feeling towards him now and he knew it was over. But how could he react to this, he understood your decision. Nobody wanted to hear this, but sometimes the person you want the most is the person you’re best without. But that didn’t mean Calum would be happy about it, it definitely crushed him hard even without realizing himself. Shutting the door again, he grabbed his coat from the entrance before heading out of the door and getting far away from your apartment as possible. He needed to get the thoughts away and it couldn’t happen too slowly for him.
