Its been two weeks since the incident with Rosie occurred. The boys have their last show tonight before they can have a break for Christmas. (bit of a time skip)
~Kyle's P.O.V~
'Dan calm down!' Dan was pacing round the backstage area and I was trying to calm him down. We were preforming The Descent for the first time live tonight and I haven't seen him this nervous ever. I suppose, it is a hard song to perform...
'Dan!' I grabbed him and held onto his shoulders. He looked at me, he looked so scared; tears glazed over his eyes. It made me sad to see him like this. After all the years he's been performing. But it's okay for him to be nervous, as long as he tries to overcome it.
I still couldn't quite comprehend why he was panicking this much and being so close to tears.
'Dan listen, please try to calm down. You're gonna do great out there tonight, I know it. We're on in 10 minutes and it's no good you going out there like this.' I told him straight. He always seems to handle the truth better if we don't sugar-coat things.
'I know, I know I'm sorry. I just keep thinking I'm gonna mess up man. I don't know why we decided to add it to the set list, I can't even perform it well.' He looked away and sighed.
'Dan, we all know that's not true. You can perform anything amazingly.'
'But-'
'Stop with the buts!' We shared a laugh and I pulled him into a hug by his waist. 'You're gonna smash it babe.' We broke apart and then he instantly kissed me. I pulled him in closer but we were interrupted buy a too familiar voice.
'Sorry to interrupt guys but errr...You have to be on stage in...' Dick looked down at his watch 'Two minutes'
Dan started to look a little panicked again.
'Dan. Calm.'
'Yeah, sorry.'
'Are you alright?'
'Yeah. Lets do this!'
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We finished the show up and everything went well..The Descent was amazing actually. There was a few slip ups but it was barely noticeable. I was proud to say it was our first time performing it. We did make a few other mistakes in the other songs though, but I suppose that was because we were focusing so much on making that one song sound perfect.
I desperately needed to use the bathroom afterwards so I did before heading to the dressing room. I entered but I noticed Dan wasn't there hanging out with everyone else. Worry washed over me like a storm. I knew he was going to be beat up about the few mistakes in the show.
'Where's Dan?' I couldn't help but panic. I felt like I was slightly overreacting but I just had a really bad feeling.
'Shit Kyle are you alright mate? You're as pale as a ghost?' Woody came up to me and placed a hand on my shoulder.
'Where. Is. Dan?'
'Umm, He said he wanted to go back to the tourbus. I don't know why, he looked pretty moody though.'
'Thanks Wood.' And with that, I sprinted out the back door. I didn't stop until I reached the bus. Why am I so worried?! I had such a horrible feeling.
'Dan? Dan?!' I shouted as the door opened. I closed it as quick as I could and started searching. I quickly ran upstairs; the first place I thought to look was his bunk. But he wasn't there. I ran down the stairs again nearly tripping. 'Dan?' I paced to the back of the bus where the second lounge was. I flung the door open and saw Dan laying there asleep on one of the sofas.
I don't think I've ever been more relived in my life.
I sat down by his head and stoked his hair, scratching lightly at his scalp. He loves it when I do that. It looked as if tears had marked his cheeks. He'd been crying?
He opened his gorgeous eyes slightly, 'Kyle?' He gave me a lopsided smile before wiping his face with his hands.
'Yes Dan, it's me'
'What are you doing here?'
'I came to see if you were alright. I thought something had happened.'
'Oh...' He sat up slowly and hung his head.
'Did something happen? Are you alright?' I grabbed his hand worriedly.
'No I'm fine...
'Dan.'
'Kyle, I'm fine babe.'
'No you are not.'
'Okay...Yeah you got it. I feel like shit.'
'Why? Talk to me.'
He looked away but that didn't stop me from seeing the tears building up in his eyes.
His gaze then turned to me. 'I don't know how to say this Kyle..'
Millions of thoughts came crashing into my brain like waves. I think he could see the look of worry on my face as he squeezed my hand tightly.
'I think...' His voice was more stern this time, but that didn't stop a tear escaping from his red eyes.
'I think someone is trying to break us up.'
