Norrie's P.O.V


A couple of weeks have passed and now I'm back in New York with both of my parents. Lots of things took place before I got back here, I first went to Birmingham for Mr. Simpson's funeral. The whole set of concerts were cancelled for at least two weeks to give Brad time to mourn. Not that I expected he would need it, but he did. He kept on telling me how happy he was before his father left them and how things would have been different if he stayed. I felt so sorry for him, I can't even imagine myself going through the same thing. I love my father so much.


Brad is now back with the rest of the lads for their final show in London O2 Arena. Yes, they are back right at the very first venue of their very first concert. "It's a full circle" that's why James said in a recent interview. Speaking of James, he's still trying win back Troye when it's pretty obvious to everyone that he doesn't want any part of him. I wish sooner or later he'd realize that he's chasing the wrong one and open his heart for someone else far more deserving.


Tris and Katie's relationship just seems to go down on a complete spiral. From what I heard, she wants out. I tried to call both of them but no one answered. I just wish they'd sort it out before it's too late. Connor and Emery on the other hand are still holding on, trying to make what they have work for as long as they can.


Why does these things have to happen now? Now that they're about to start their normal lives?.

Connor's P.O.V


Emery surprised me when she decided to come to our very last concert. "I guess you're worth the trip" she whispered as I hugged her. I can't believe she would do something like this for she's the kind of girl that wants to run away from all the lights and attention.


"You have no idea how happy I am right now"


"You should be. Tonight, you boys will be singing your swan song"


"Yes we will" I said before we kissed.

James's P.O.V


I asked Troye to come to our very last concert and it's more than clear to me now that he doesn't care about me. Guess it's about time that I should stop caring about him as well.


I chased after him for a very long time and it's no use. He's somewhere else and I'm still alone.


"Everything's gonna be alright James, don't worry" I turned around and saw Brad standing by the door of my room. "You think so?" I asked.


"Of course, and besides you're hella strong man. Out of all of us, you're probably the one who sacrificed the most for the person you love. And we accept that and that also is just alright. You're bloody amazing I'm sure someone will fancy . . wait I mean love you for who you are"


"Thank you brother" I said and then we hugged it out.

Brad's P.O.V


Our last night playing for our fans must have been the most emotional thing we as a band had to go through in a while. I tried to look around the whole venue and was able to read a couple of sign boards that were made for us. "Brad, please marry me FIRST" , "The Vamps are forever" , "I'll sing your songs even though I'm 80" . Those were some of the messages that I was able to read. And that touched my heart like nothing else. To see all of these people grew up with us and get inspired by our music, it meant the whole world.


"And now guys we're done to our very last song, and just what James said before it's all gonna come in full circle. Trust me it will. For our final song . . here's 'Can We Dance' " . I said as Tris continued to make the first beat. Each word that I sing combined with everyone else around all started mounting up into an emotional wrecking ball that started hitting me. And boy did it hit so hard.


I barely made it through the first chorus and by the time I reached the bridge, I started tearing up and turned to the fans as well. They were singing every single word correctly. I looked at the lads and they were all teary eyed as well. This is our swan song.

Norrie's P.O.V


"Mum where's Dad?" I asked as soon as she got back. "Meeting at his office" she replied and went straight to her study room. "But I called and they said he's not there" I answered and she stopped on her tracks.


"Don't worry he must have just gone somewhere else"


"Alright then" I said and returned to my room. A couple of minutes after, the phone started ringing. I waited for the maid to answer it but when she didn't I got out and got it.


"Hello, Anderson's residence" I said happily. "Norrie is that you?" I recognized that voice, it's my Uncle Jeremy. "Wow uncle? Haven't heard a while from you" I replied.


"Yes. Where's your father?"


"I don't know"


All of a sudden, Mum came running out of her room. "What happened?" I asked and didn't even realized I put down the phone. "Your father! They brought him to the hospital!" she was almost screaming.


"What?" I asked as my heart dropped.

Brad's P.O.V


"We did a good job" James whispered as the four of us took our last stand in front of all the fans. "Enjoy this, for it will be a while before it happens again" I told them and they all nodded. I smiled and looked at every single girl who were crying.


"Thank you very much. We love You" we all said at the same time and then took our final bow. And in that moment, we knew we finished our own career.
