Love, weddings and babys

The world tour

Throwback: Kian and Mark asked both their girls to marry them. Both said yes.
Marie was 1 1/2 month old when the tour started in April. Shane was happy to go on tour,  but the life has changed with the birth of his daughter. Before the first show started in Liverpool he made a hard decision. "Guys, do you have a moment please?", he asked his bandmates. "Yes, what is Shane? ", Nico asked. "I want to leave the band. I'm a dad and Marie is the most important thing at the moment." The lads were shocked. "But if you leave the band, the band will break, you are our voice. ", Kian said. "Maybe you should wait till after the tour to decide you Shane.  The stage is your life. You cannot live without singing. ", Mark said. "Shane you made this band, you are the head of Westlife. I can understand you, but are you sure?", Kian asked. "Guys, the music is my life and now it's Charlotte and Marie too. I would like to see them every day. Now they are at home.  Marie is to young for the travel to every show with us.", Shane said. "We talk after the show about it again.  Now let's give our 100%. The show begins.",Nicky said. Then they hugged each other and wished luck for the show. In the moment they were on stage all forgot the discussion before. You could see that Shane was happy. The show finished with 'You raise me up'. "What do you think now Shane? Our fans need us.", Nicky said. "You cannot change my mind. Maybe after the tour, maybe another tour, but I see the future with my family. What about you guys?  You all will marry this year. And then the babys come also in your life.", Shane said. "Shane is right guys. We have all a family now. And nothing is more important for me than Sarah.",Mark said. "Guys when the band is over then we should it decide together.  But Shane should not leave.  You all know what fans thought when Brian left. ", Nicky said. "Ok, I will wait after the tour,  will think about it again. ", Shane sad and slapped the lads on their shoulders.
Back in the hotelroom Shane skyped with Charlotte. "Hi baby. ":"Hi Shane,  how was the show?" "It was great. Baby I told the lads that I want to leave the band for you and Marie after the tour." "You did what? Shane I cannot accept it. The band is your life." "Yes Charlotte,  but you and Marie are also my life and I miss you so much. Cannot wait till Friday in London to see you again. " "Shane I love you, but you cannot do it. Not because of me and Charlotte. You know what I thought when Brian left the band.  The fans will be disappointed. What are the lads saying about it?" "The reaction was like I thought. I should think about it." "Shane please make no wrong desicion. The three are more than your bandmates.  They are your best friends,  like brothers. You should decide together when it's the right time to say goodbye as Westlife." "Baby you're right. We should end as band when we all want it. I love you. Give Marie a kiss from me." "I will Shane,  I love you." Shane went to the hotelbar.  The guys waited there for him. "Shane, how are Charlotte and Marie?", Kian asked. "Both ok. Thanks guys. Charlotte really loves me. She didn't accept my thoughts about the band. Guys, we are unbreakable. When we all want to end together we will do a perfect farewell tour. But for now I don't want to leave you and the band.", Shane said and smiled.
The tour went on. Charlotte and Marie were with Shane in Stockholm and Germany. The asia tour was 12 days and then the last show in Dublin at Croke Park started on Shanes birthday.
It was a great show and Shane seemed to be happy.
Only a few weeks later the guys meet up for a drink. "What a tour guys. Shane do you changed your mind completely? ", Nicky asked. "No, the band is important,  you lads are important,  but Charlotte and Marie are the best of my life.", Shane said. "Guys, I also thought about Shanes words the last month. If Maria would give me a baby I would decide like Shane.  And we want to have a baby one day.", Nicky said. "Is it that what we all want.  A last album a last tour?", Mark asked. "I want it.", Shane said. "Me too.", Nico said. Mark and Kian looked at each other. "Yes, we want it too guys.", Mark said for himself and Kian. "We should tell it Louis.", Shane said.
First Louis was shocked,  but he accept the decision they had made together.
