Michael

it has been three months since abby went back to L.A nothing was the same anymore . we had an hour before we went on stage in chicago. i decided to take a walk around. i put on my hoodie and walked out. "hopeful no one recognize me " i said to myself. i put in my headphones and try to block out the world. no one seem to notice me as i past though our fans. as i walk down the street and  someone tap on my arm. i turned around to see a girl about 12 years old with our logo on her shirt . "hello do you want a picture now that you know who i am".
"can i"
"sure"
she then took out her phone and open her camera. as we took a picture i notice that she did not smile like other fans i have  taken photos with.
"why didn't you smile, aren't you happy you got to meet me?" 
" why should  I be happy if the one I care about isn't"
"No that's not true I am happy see" I then showed  her the most biggest smile I had. 
"Emma come on we have to go before we are late" a woman said
She then smile and walks away.
I then started to walk back to the venue.  When I got back the boys were sitting around waiting for us to go on stage.
" hey Michael's back" Ashton said
" and just in time" Luke said
Calum then hands me my guitar
" you know what to do after she looks so perfect"
" yeah"
I have asked the boys if I can sing a song by myself at the very end and they agreed.
" when do we go on stage" I asked
"right about.....now"  Ashton said
we all got up and went on stage one by one as we played 18. Everything went by fast. At the end of "she looks so perfect" I looked at all of our fans and smiled. I then put my lips near the Microphone.
" are you all having a good time" I said
The crowd screamed
"Bad news is that it's over" Calum said
The crowd screamed even louder
" but the good news is that Michael is going to sing you one more song" Luke said as the crowd cheered.
I then went over to my piano and grab my microphone.
" as you may know I'm dating Abby Hemmings and she was on tour with us but she went back to L.A to live her dream. Well her and I been talking about us taking a break from each other" I said holding back my tears.
" and we are not taking a break because we don't love each other, because I know I'm deeply in love with her and I hope she feels the same. We are taking a break because we don't have time for each other and I know you might be thinking if we loved each other then will make time. But we tried and it didn't work out the way we wanted it to."
I then looked at Luke and he nodded.
" this last song I will be playing is a cover by We The Kings and I dedicate this song to Abby" I said as the fans cheered.
I began to play the intro on my piano then I started to sing.
"You and I,
We're like fireworks and symphonies exploding in the sky.
With you, I'm alive
Like all the missing pieces of my heart, they finally collide.
So stop time right here in the moonlight,
'Cause I don't ever wanna close my eyes.
Without you, I feel broke.
Like I'm half of a whole.
Without you, I've got no hand to hold.
Without you, I feel torn.
Like a sail in a storm.
Without you, I'm just a sad song."
I then stopped singing and just played the piano. I looked up to see Abby and she started to sing.
"With you I fall.
It's like I'm leaving all my past in silhouettes upon the wall.
With you I'm a beautiful mess.
It's like we're standing hand in hand with all our fears upon the edge.
So stop time right here in the moonlight,
'Cause I don't ever wanna close my eyes."
I just smile at her and she smiled back. We then started to sing together.
"You're the perfect melody,
The only harmony
I wanna hear.
You're my favorite part of me,
With you standing next to me,
I've got nothing to fear.

Without you, I feel broke.
Like I'm half of a whole.
Without you, I've got no hand to hold.
Without you, I feel torn.
Like a sail in a storm.
Without you, I'm just a sad song.
I'm just a sad song."
When the song ended I got up and went over to her. I cupped her face and kissed her as the crowd screamed and cheered.
" I've missed you" I said
"I've missed you too Michael"
Calum, Luke, and Ashton came near us and we had a group hug.
" we could try again" she whispered
" I love too"
