river pov:
billie and finneas are doing mic checks and warming up, me and claudia are stood at the side of the stage
they are going through the whole setlist and billies voice cracked during when the partys over and i could tell she was getting annoyed she looked over to me
"youve got this" i mouthed to her "she really depends on you" claudia says placing her hand on my shoulder i smile not taking my eyes off the black haired girl giving her all
i feel like im watching her sing for the first time all over again, the day finneas asked her to sing ocean eyes the day that changed everything.
as they finished the check, billie walked over to me and hugged me, without saying a word i hugged her back reassuring her she did amazing
as claudia and finneas walked back stage into the green room billie took my hand and we sat at the front of the stage
"my last tour was insane" she says smiling "but now this just feels wrong" her feet kicking back and forth "you did amazing and once your up there and your fans are in the crowd, its your moment to show them what youve got, your voice is amazing and nothing could ever change my mind"
i could tell it was because id be there, when i watched her last tour streaming on youtube she was amazing and i couldnt see one nerve in her
"just imagine im not here" i say and she looks at me "i want to do my best for you" she smiles "im always proud of you eyelashes"
"i watched your last tour on youtube and it was the best thing id ever seen, so do it again you have 3 weeks to give the fans what they came for" she smiles and hugs me before we head into the green room
"2 hours until the big show" maggie says in excitement hugging billie, as billie swung her arms around her mom i could tell she needed that hug, i dont want to ruin her opportunity to be amazing
but ive also been thinking about something too, i want to start university to study english... but ive been to scared to tell billie as there is so much going on in her life and with tour, i dont want to tell her now
maybe a different day.
~time skip~
billie jumps up from the stage to bad guy, it's happening.
me and her family are stood at the side of the stage watching in awe i pull out my phone and record her, humming along
once i finished i uploaded it to instagram and in a matter of seconds my phone blew up, i powered off and admired the moment i was in
i feel insanely proud of billie, i love the way she interacts with her fans, the way her voice echoed through the stadium and the way she looked at me for reassurance and to make sure i was watching her
by this time i was so lost in the moment 'i love you' started to play and i felt a tear form in my eye as she sung it so beautifully, until she nodded for me to come out
i turn back to claudia and she gives me a nod, almost pushing me, i was so nervous but i did it anyway
making my way behind her, resting my hands on her shoulders and my head ontop of hers, planting a kiss
the fans cheered so loud i couldnt even hear billie for a split second, the moment felt like seconds, as billie stood from the stool she took my hand and finneas hand and lifted them in the air before walking off the stage with the both of us
claudia meeting finneas with a kiss as i couldnt keep my eyes of the girl walking beside me "i like when you stare but its kinda burning" she laughs "sorry" i hung my head in embarrassment throwing my hair infront of my face as we sat in the green room alone.
she kneeled infront of me and pushed it out my face, her blue eyes greeting with my green, kissing me without saying a word "i love you" she says and i never felt more genuine than right now
"i cant say how much i love you more" she spins and sits infront of me as her family walk in to tell her how amazing they did
"we have to go to the grammies right after tour" finneas says as billie threw her head in his direction "billie you have 6 nominations" everyone smiles
"me?" she asked, it sounded like white noise to her, like it was unbelievable literally
