Kept From You // L.H (completed)

{ Luke }

I was busy today. I had interviews and tour meetings all day. Then I had rehearsals tonight. Plus I have Carter all week. Taylor booked a client in Seattle so she had to go up there to make sure things were going as planned.

I got to our interview, completely drained. I had a coffee in my hand as I headed up to the studio I was to be in.

I opened the door and watched my friends laugh,

"You look rough man" Ashton patted my shoulder,

"Carter is in the midst of terrible twos. Last night he cried until 2 am because we couldn't find his giraffe. Then once we found it, he didn't want to go to bed- so he cried" I groaned,

"This morning he threw a tantrum because he didn't want to put regular clothes on for daycare. Then I didn't have any chocolate milk so that was another meltdown. Once we got to daycare, he didn't want to go so he cried more"

"Dad life" Michael joked. I rolled my eyes and took a sip of my coffee as Alex and Drew (from The Chainsmokers) walked in,

"Damn dude. Did you sleep?" Drew laughed, "Or were you fucking a chick all night?"

I gritted my teeth. They say shit like that a lot and it bothers me,

"No" I spit, "I have a two year old"

"Oh yeah. I forgot. He wasn't around when I met you the first time" Drew shrugged.

I rolled my eyes and took my seat between Calum and Michael.

The interview started and I sat back and listened for the most part, pitching in here and there but letting Ashton do the majority of the talking. I had completely zoned out until Michael hit my arm, telling me we were doing Twitter questions,

"First one, are you guys excited to be touring together?"

"I'm pretty pumped to have these guys on tour with us. It'll be a party every night" Alex answered,

"We're excited to go. It's a great opportunity for our band to broaden our fan base but also get to see our fans again" Ashton answered for us, taking it more serious than Drew and Alex were,

"Okay, this one is for Luke," the interviewer told me, making me nod, "Will your son and girlfriend be going on tour?"

I smiled,

"They will be with us. For how long is still up in the air. Me and my girl kinda have to talk about it. We just have to think about Carter and see if we think he will do okay. Plus Taylor's got a job so we have to work with that"

"Will this be Carter's first time seeing you perform?" the interviewer added. I didn't really mind him asking but I could tell he was being weary on what he asked,

"He's seen us once at a little event we had. He loved it" I smiled.

We answered some more before we were allowed to leave.

Our next interview was smooth and more serious since Drew and Alex weren't there. As much as I like the guys, I just can't do interviews and business stuff with them.

We had tour meetings next, so the four of us filed into a meeting room. We were given lunch which was nice,

"First off, who's got people coming with them?" Our manager started off,

"Crystal and KayKay will be with us" Michael spoke up,

"Taylor and Carter are coming, but I'm not entirely sure how long they will be with us" I answered,
