Lexi's P.O.V.
Steven hands a microphone to me, then gives another one to Niall.
I nervously shift around.
"What do you two want to sing", Steven asks. "I can go turn on the music on my phone."
"No that's fine", I say before I can stop myself. "We'll do an acoustic version."
Niall nods at Steven.
I look around the smallish restaurant.
There aren't a lot of people here.
An elderly couple sits in a booth near a window.
A woman and a little girl sit next to the counter where the cashier lady works and a young man and woman sit near the door.
Probably because they might need to be ready to leave if things go bad.
Just as I'm wondering why a woman would bring her daughter to a karaoke place that serves alcoholic beverages, Niall decides on the song.
"We'll sing "Just Give Me A Reason" by Pink."
"Great choice Mr. Horan."
My eyes light up.
That's one of my favorite songs.
"Can I play the piano to it?", I ask this time wanting the words to come out.
Steven nods and I seat myself at the huge piano in the corner of the stage.
Running my fingers over the keys I sigh.
It's been so long since I've played.
I knew this song by heart.
It was my mother who had taught me to play piano.
Holding back tears I begin.
Playing each of the keys brings back memories and I start singing.
I don't know how I sounded but I tried to put a lot of effort into it.
Niall joins in for the chorus and we sound like a heavenly choir of angels.
After we finish, we get applauds and the little girl comes running up asking for our autographs.
Mostly Niall's but who cares.
This night has been magical.
