**Chapter Eight**
•Erin's POV•
It was 7:30am, and I was woken up by Ed Sheeran singing "The A Team" to me; yes, it was my alarm. But, I had to get up early. I had to avoid the boys finding out about me playing my music for as long as possible... so waking up early to do it seemed pretty logical. Besides, I had to feed the animals as well.
I had gotten dressed and quietly made my way out of my room and into the Studio Room right next door. I shut the door, and as I grabbed an acoustic from the wall I gently started strumming the strings. I smiled as Realize by Colbie Caillat popped into my head. I sat down on a stool and gently played the melody; I began to sing the verses, keeping my vocals and my strumming perfectly in sync.
"Take time to realize
That your warmth is crashing down on in
Take time to realize that I am on your side
Didn't I, didn't I tell you
But I can't spell it out for you
No, it's never gonna be that simple
No, I can't spell it out for you
If you just realize what I just realized
Then we'd be perfect for each other and we'll never find another
Just realize what I just realized
We'd never have to wonder if we missed out on each other now
Take time to realize, oh, oh,
I'm on your side
Didn't I, didn't I tell you
Take time to realize, this all can pass you by
Didn't I tell you
But I can't spell it out for you
No, it's never gonna be that simple
No, I can't spell it out for you"
By the time I reached the end of the song, I was still smiling like an idiot. However, the smile quickly faded when I came back to my thoughts from last night: Liam and Niall. The pain I could see in Liam's eyes; how badly I wanted to take it all away.
At that moment, the perfect song came to me as I sat down at the piano, my fingers slowly gliding over the keys before I started to play, my voice belting out the lyrics with such emotion and passion.
"When the rain is blowing in your face,
And the whole world is on your case,
I could offer you a warm embrace,
To make you feel my love.
When the evening shadows and the stars appear,
And there is no one there to dry your tears,
I could hold you for a million years,
To make you feel my love.
I know you haven't made your mind up yet,
But I would never do you wrong.
I've known it from the moment that we met,
No doubt in my mind where you belong.
I'd go hungry; I'd go black and blue,
I'd go crawling down the avenue.
No, there's nothing that I wouldn't do
