you sighed contently. messing with bobbie was one of your favorite past times, and has been since you came back to the earth as a ghost. you laughed as you watched him and carrie run around the house to stop the flood you had caused in their kitchen.
you spent the day with the boys again yesterday, but they had to go back to julies to prep for their gig last night. before you all departed, they told you they'd introduce you to julie soon, and you were honestly excited to meet the girl. you had only heard great things about the girl who found her voice again. but it had only been a short while since the reunion, so the boys had only wanted time alone with you. until now.
it had almost been a full day since you saw them last, and today was a special day. it was lukes birthday. so you figured it was time to head back.
you smiled at the thought of your boys, you were so happy to be back with them. it had only been a little while since you reunited, but it felt like you didn't miss a beat. you were the same friend group you used to be.
you poofed yourself out of the wilson's house and into the molinas garage. you saw the boys talking to who you guessed was julie, a girl with an upset look on her face. you backed away to turn around the corner of the garage, deciding you'd wait to talk to the boys until this seemingly to be awkward conversation was over.
you listened in as some drama was going down about what happened yesterday. you heard multiple mean things come out of the girls mouth, and clenched your fists. the boys seemed very apologetic about something, but you'd figure that out in just a moment.
"hey! i do care!" you heard luke talking with a strong tone, one you didn't hear often, and covered your mouth with your hand as to not make any noise, "our band has a real shot at greatness, and i'm not gonna let that slip away from us again." you frowned, hearing the pain in the boys voice.
"so then why did you bail on me last night?" julie spoke, and your eyebrows raised. last night was the gig at the school dance, and they bailed?? what had they done after hanging with you?? you leaned in closer to the front of the house to hear more.
"i'll tell you why," the girl spoke up again, before luke got the chance, and you watched from around the corner as anger clouded her eyes, "because there's only one thing you care about, and that's yourself."
"hey!" you couldn't stop yourself, you had heard enough of this girls hurtful comments, which were especially directed at your boyfriend. the girl had already turned around and heading for the door, but luke turned around to see you standing there. the expression on his face left you speechless, you simply couldn't find anything to say. you faintly heard the slam of the girls front door, and guessed she hadn't even heard you.
you opened your mouth to say something to the boy, but luke vanished within a second. you frowned, knowing you should've stayed behind the corner.
"is that julie?" you growled to the other boys, and they reluctantly nodded their heads.
you huffed, "ok, tell me what's going on.
right now."

"this all happened last night?" this was the first and only thing to come out of your mouth as the drummer and bassist explained the vast plot of events in the previous day.
"yeah," reggie nodded, "and, even more, we figured out bobbie stole all of our songs." you raised your eyebrows, "all of the ones lukes wrote at least. he produced them all under his name," he paused, "well, his new name, trevor wilson." the boys cringed, and you found yourself doing the same.
you were shocked, to say the least. and confused. and, even though they weren't your songs, hurt. why would bobbie steal all of their music? was he really that selfish?
"i can't believe bobbie would do that..." you muttered, looking at the floor.
"yeah, we were pretty upset too. so we went to his hous-" alex's hand hit reggies shoulder, and reggies mouth instantly snapped shut. you had barely noticed though, still clouded by your confusion.
"we went to meet caleb." alex continued, trying to pick off of reggies latest sentence. you began to pay more attention as they explained to you the rest of the nights events.
the boys had ended up spending too much time at this place called the hollywood ghost club, which, to you, sounded majorly sketchy. point being to find a way to talk to bobbie, and ask him why he stole their music. apparently a ghost friend of alex's had said he knew a guy who could help. which is this caleb dude, the seeming to be chill magician, but might have given them these dangerous jolts they were now experiencing.
but anyway, they ended up missing their gig with julie, hence the angry fight you had just witnessed.
"we can't even worry about that right now." alex put his fingertips to his temples, "we need to get julie back, and now luke's gone." alex groaned, and reggie was seen putting his head in his palms.
"well we all can guess where he is right now." you sighed, "we all know what today is."
the fact that today was your boyfriends birthday settled into the group, and no one said a word.
after a moment of silence, though, you took a deep breath, "this julie girl is really rubbing me the wrong way though." you groaned, standing up and pacing the floor in front of the boys, "i mean what she said was way out of line."
the boys nodded, "you're right, but she was just mad. it wasn't right for us to stand her up either." alex said.
"yeah, that girl has been through a lot." reggie shook his head.
"we should probably go talk to her." alex said, standing up, "and i have an idea."

about an hour later, you shuddered as a tear rolled down your cheek as you watched your boyfriend sob.
you and the boys explained to julie lukes past, and offered to show her the consequences of it. you brought her to see luke watch his family eat his birthday cake, and blow out the candles with them. julie was finally starting to get it, the boys weren't selfish, they were just mad. revengeful. luke needed bobbie to produce those songs under all their names, so lukes parents could've been comforted. so missing their gig because they were at calebs last night wasnt the nicest thing, but all they wanted was a way to get answers.
"i never knew luke was hurting this much." julie said as a tear strolled down her own cheek. you wanted to tell her how mean and out of line she had spoken to luke given his circumstances, but you decided to hold it in.
the boys and julie decided to leave, having made their point, and you said you'd stick around.
"i'll be here for him when he leaves." you forced a smile, and everyone nodded. as the group walked away, alex backed up a few steps to face you.
"did you know?" he muttered, and he didn't have to clarify what he was talking about for you to understand.
"yeah," you nodded, having knowing the state his parents were in, "they did this exact thing last year, and it hasn't gotten any better."
alex sadly nodded, squeezing your shoulder before walking away himself, "bring him home, ok?"
you sighed, hating the fact that your lives had turned into this.
you leaned yourself next to the front door, deciding you'd wait for luke to come out on his own. you'd be here for him when he was ready.
about twenty minutes later, a flash to your left startled you. you picked your head up, realizing you hadn't thought about what you would say to the boy.
he raised his head to see you standing there, and his face fell, "what are you doing here?"
you tilted your head at your boyfriend, "do you really have to ask that." you laughed slightly, even though you really didn't find it funny.
"you knew??" he had trouble looking up at you as he asked the same question alex had a few minutes ago. this one hurt more to deliver.
your silence told him the answer though.
you muttered an 'im so sorry', but it was barely audible.
luke let out a breath, one that masked another sob, and ran into your arms. you hugged him back immediately, and you two stood there for quite sometime.
"it's ok, luke." you whispered at some point, and he nodded against your shoulder, sniffling, "they're your parents." you closed your eyes, "and they're still your parents."
sometime later, he picked his head up, wiping the remaining tears off of his and your face, and took your hand, "thank you, for always being here."
"thank you for always letting me."
you smiled at each other, and you ruffled his hair, "let's go home, yeah?"
he sniffled again, but nodded, not letting go of your hand.
