Six weeks since I've been away
And now you're sayin' everything has changed
And I'm afraid that I might be losing you
Ashton:

It was six weeks into their tour and you couldn't handle it. As much as you loved Ashton the distance was too much, you were proud of him but you wanted him to be beside you singing softly in your ear. You rang him up one day saying.

"Ashton I need you I can't take this anymore... Everything has changed... I'm sorry..."

And every night that we spend alone
It kills me thinking of you on your own
And I wish I was back home next to you
Calum:

The tour bus hit a bump which caused Calum to wake up. He glanced at the frame that sat in his bed which was a picture of him giving you a piggyback at the beach. He hated this. Being this far from you. He wanted to be waking up to the birds chirping, but especially seeing your face bathed in sunlight, hair spread out on the pillow making you look like a angel. That's all he ever wanted...

Are we wasting time
Talking on a broken line?
Telling you I haven't seen your face in ages
I feel like we're as close as strangers
Luke:

You phone buzzed constantly on the coffee table. Luke's face popped up on the touchscreen and you grabbed it as fast as you could.

"Hey baby..." You heard your favourite voice in the world say.

"Luke. How is the tour going?" You asked sitting up from the sofa.

"It's good... It's good..." You both sat in silence for a minute.

"I haven't seen your face in ages... I really miss you." He muttered.

"Yeah me too." You bit your lip.

"A lot..."

Late night calls and another text
Is this as good as we're gonna get?
Another timezone taking me away from you
Living dreams in fluorescent lights
Michael:

Your phone screen lit up in your dark room. A message from Michael popped up.

"Hey babe. It's really late where we are so I thought I'd just text to see how you are, what's going on and how my special girl is doing." A couple of seconds after reading the text he rang you.

"Hi baby girl." His voice rang through the phone.

"Mikey." You gasped happily.

"I really wish you were here seeing all these fluorescent lights with me..."

All:
Six months since I went away
And I know everything has changed
But tomorrow I'll be coming back to you

The six months that were the tour had ended. The boys ran onto the plane desperate to get home especially Ashton. They were all rushing home to see their girls. Once they'd landed; Calum, Luke & Michael ran to their girlfriends engulfing them in hugs, finally reunited. Ashton on the other hand had already left, determined to make it up to his one and only...
