-Chapter 43-

I woke up in the middle of the night, words spinning around in my head. I groaned and got up. I turned my fairy lights on and pulled out my notepad. I found a pen and sat back down on my bed. I really needed my beauty sleep, since I was preforming on the Royal Variety tomorrow—scratch that, today.

It had been two days since I've seen Harry, and three since I've spoken to Niall. I don't know where our relationship stands, but after being away from him for a couple of days, I know that I don't want to let him go. He is the best thing that has ever happened to me.

Another thing that has been bothering me: Distance. It feels wrong to sing that at the show, especially today, and I think that explains why I am up.

The words were swimming inside my head, and it wasn't until I put them down on paper that they all made sense to me.

Nobody sees, nobody knows

We are a secret

Can't be exposed

That's how it is, that's how it goes

Far from the others

Close to each other

Was I about to write another song about a boy? I was supposed to be writing songs about feeling better, my management and I had both agreed.

In the daylight, in the daylight when the sun is shining On a late night, on a late night when the moon is blinding In the plain sight, plain sight like stars in hiding You and I burn on-on

Apparently my brain doesn't care about that agreement.

Put two and two gether forever We'll never change Two and two gether We'll never change Nobody sees, nobody knows We are a secret Can't be exposed That's how it is, that's how it goes Far from the others Close to each other That's when we uncover-cover-cover That's when we uncover-cover-cover

I am forcing my eyes to stay open, and my hand feels like it's going to drop off, but I had to keep going. This song is my escape from singing Distance tomorrow. I got up and headed towards my mini recording studio, still writing.

My asylum, my asylum is in your arms When the world gives heavy burdens I can bare a thousand tons On your shoulder, on your shoulder I can reach an endless sky Feels like paradise

I continued writing as I switched on all the equipment. Once that was done, I walked into the recording area and turned on the microphone and instruments. I walked over to the small piano that was in the room and turned the button on so it would record the melody I was going to make. I did all this whilst still writing.

Put two and two gether forever We'll never change Two and two gether We'll never change Nobody sees, nobody knows We are a secret Can't be exposed That's how it is, that's how it goes Far from the others Close to each other That's when we uncover-cover-cover That's when we uncover-cover-cover

I sat down at the piano and placed the notebook on my lap. I was still scribbling the lyrics whilst humming a melody that had suddenly just come to me.

We could build a universe right here All the world could disappear Wouldn't notice, wouldn't care We could build a universe right here The world could disappear Yeah I just need you near

Niall is going to hear this, and hopefully he will understand that this is my apology and that I want him next to me. I want everything to go back the way it was before Barbara dropped a bombshell on us.

Nobody sees, nobody knows We are a secret Can't be exposed That's how it is, that's how it goes Far from the others Close to each other That's when we uncover-cover-cover That's when we uncover-cover-cover
