a continent apart

chapter 16. concert chaos and miracles!

Olivers Pov:

" What do you mean he's not coming to open for me!!!" I yelled at Carson getting out of the chair where Addie was doing my hair and is start pace back and forth. i then see Carson sigh rubbing his hands over his face since he's stressed as well. " He can't come because he's sick right now ate something yesterday and well now he's in the hospital until hopefully tomorrow. he knows he's letting you down by doing this but if he performs well, he will throw up into the crowd. " Carson says trying to reason with me even though i know he can't help it and I know he wants the best for me since this is the beginning of the tour. sighing once more running my fingers through my hair and I stare straight at his face saying the words I hope we have an answer to. " so, who's going to open for me because people paid to see him before they see me and if I go out early then it messes with the schedule." I say and Carson nods his head agreeing with me before he starts to think because it seems like it's either going to be a long concert which isn't something I look forward to nor am I prepared to do. as we sat thinking we then heard singing outside the door of my dressing room and confused i walked out with Addie and Carson along with Trevor since we were all confused.

soon enough it was coming from the stage and as we looked to see who it was shock was evident when our mouths dropped to the floor as we saw who the one who was singing was i couldn't even believe my eyes either... Macie of all people can sing!!!! how did I not know this? how did she keep this a secret for so long as well she should be famous in my eyes.

we all stared at her as she danced around with the guitar hanging from the strap on her shoulder as she plays a song I've never heard of before but the meaning behind it tells a story that I get lost in.

how come she's not famous? her voice isn't like one I have heard before and even Carson is starstruck because his mouth his on the ground in shock just like me.

mercies Pov:

hoping that no one hears me I start to mess around since I'm basically finished from taking pictures so the rest can be done later at the concert. as I look around the stage, I see the stands where everyone will be seating watching the concert and it feels like you're on top of the world. I don't know how Oliver does it tbh. soon enough I get carried away and I see a guitar calling my name I take it hoping no one will care if I use it plus, I think its Olivers or Trevor's I'm sure they won't mind hopefully. I grab my little song book and a pencil and get to writing a song spilling out my emotions into it for well only for my eyes to see. I start writing like never before having the lyrics flow right through me on to paper and adding in the chords with the guitar as well trying to make it perfect. soon enough after what feels like forever, I get it flowing just right and I smile knowing this is how I want it to be, I look around hoping no one hears me before i start to spew the words to my song smiling cause its perfect in every way possible.

her song: fragments of the light

first verse:

" In the quiet of the night, I watch you from afar,

A constellation of feelings, like distant stars.You're the melody that plays within my soul,Yet you dance through life, unaware of the role.(Pre-Chorus)I'm a secret admirer, hidden in plain sight,Every stolen glance, every whispered goodnight.My heart's a compass, pointing toward your grace,But you're lost in your world, in a different space.(Chorus)Oh, clueless heart, can't you see?I'm weaving dreams, hoping you'll notice me.In the shadows, I pen love letters unsent,A symphony of longing, a sweet lament.(Verse 2)Your laughter, a sunbeam breaking through clouds,I collect each smile, like raindrops in crowds.Yet you walk past, like a fleeting breeze,Unaware of the wildfire you've set free.(Pre-Chorus)I trace your steps, like constellations above,Wishing for a sign, a whisper of love.But you're a masterpiece, oblivious and rare,And I'm just a poet, lost in your air.(Chorus)Oh, clueless heart, can't you see?I'm weaving dreams, hoping you'll notice me.In the shadows, I pen love letters unsent,A symphony of longing, a sweet lament.(Bridge)Maybe one day, fate will spin its thread,And you'll turn around, see the words unsaid.Our hearts collide, like stars in cosmic flight,And you'll finally know-love's silent fight.(Chorus)Oh, clueless heart, can't you see?I'm weaving dreams, hoping you'll notice me.In the shadows, I pen love letters unsent,A symphony of longing, a sweet lament.(Outro)But until then, I'll keep my secret close,A fragile bloom in a garden of prose.For falling in love with you, my dear,Is a beautiful ache, a whispered prayer.
