Cant Wait Another Day || M.C.

Part 18

Michael's POV

I walked into the bus to find the rest of the guys and I was clearly in a mood. I felt like I was turning into Johnny or something. I was pissed to put it lightly. As I walk into the living area where Luke and Ash were sitting I sit down with a groan and hold my head in my hands.

"Woah, what's up dude?" Luke asks, clearly confused.

"Sheena is going to pick out her wedding dress." I say, disgust filling my tone of voice.

"And?" Ash asks and I look at him incredulously.

"Are we just... completely going to forget what he did to her? I mean my god she still has the bruises on her wrists! How can she be so naive?!" I rant, looking at them both for answers.

"Hey man, we don't know their relationship. It seemed like an accident. I don't think we have any place to say anything more on the subject. You've got to let it go." Ash tells me, patting me on the back and I just let out a frustrated groan.

"Any man who does that to a girl he 'loves' is a dick and doesn't deserve her." I tell them and they both give me a look. "Oh don't give me that look." I tell them.

"Listen, Sheena's hot. I get it, but you do not want to mess with that. Just let it go." Luke tells me and I glare at him.

"It's not because I like her. It's because I'm worried about her." I tell him and I get a look from both of them that says, 'really' "I'm serious!" I tell them and I can see they still don't believe me. With that Calum walks onto the bus.

"Okay, what did I miss?" He asks looking at the three of us.

"Michael has the hots for Sheena." Ash says and I glare at him. Calum looks shocked.

"No dude, she's getting married. Don't you dare." Calum warns.

"I don't like her! I'm just concerned!" I tell them and Calum shrugs. I can see that he gets it.

"So does that mean we aren't gonna go get that beer with Johnny and the guys?" He asks, causing Luke and Ashton to look up from what they're doing with interest.

"They invited us to have a beer with them?" Luke asks, surprised.

"Well, no. Sheena did... but their single went number one so they're partying. I figured we should go congratulate them." Calum says and the guys look surprised.

"No shit? Really!? That's awesome! We have to!" Ash says, getting up.

"Plus, we should go have a few beers with them. We've only got like... 2 more shows with them before they leave the tour." Luke says, getting up as well. The three of them look at me, still sitting on the couch.

"I don't think it's a good idea. I can't stand that guy." I tell them and Calum rolls his eyes at me.

"Come on dude. Just go, be civil, and it'll be fine. What else are you going to do?" Calum asks and I realize he has a point. I don't have anything else to do. I groan and get up off the couch.

"Okay, let's go." I say and the boys cheer as we leave our bus to the bus parked behind us.

A few beers too many later I was pretty buzzed along with everyone else on the bus. I had to admit though; I was having a pretty good time. The Get-Away guys were pretty cool. They opened up to us after a few beers and we were actually playing some pretty cool drinking games. They were kicking our Asses, which sucked, but you could tell just by looking at them that these guys were pretty experienced drinkers. That really only contributed to them being fun to drink with though.
