I smile, sitting near the front. It's Michael's turn, and he has the most beautiful smile on his face. I swear it's laced with sunshine. There's just something about Michael that is so magnetic.
"To sing a duet with a fan..."
Suddenly the audience fills with cheers, and the majority of fans raise their hands. I didn't have time to react before someone taps my arm. I look to see the bubbly interviewer. Moving the mic away she quietly asks, "Would you like to be a part of the dare?"
I smile at her curtousy, "Sure."
I get up, shooting a wink to my friend. The sweet lady guides me to the front, and hands me a microphone.
"Um... Hi," I greet awkwardly.
Michael smiles at me, and I felt butterflies erupt in my stomach. He nods, and and mouths, 'Lucky.' He starts strumming his guitar, and I quickly recognize the tune. I smile, I used to sing this all the time in the shower.
"Do you hear me? I'm talking to you. Under the water, under the deep blue ocean, under the open sky. Oh, my. Baby, I'm trying," He sings beautifully making the crowd clap happily.
He smiles at me comfortingly before I sing my part, "Boy I hear you, in my dreams. I hear your whisper, across the sea. I keep you with me, in my heart. You make it easier when life gets hard."
He eyes seem to have lit up, probably because I knew the song. I feel myself gain some confidence as I got some applause. He starts strumming a bit quicker as we sing together, "I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend, lucky to have been where I have been, lucky to be coming home again..."
Michael stops playing, and I blush. There has been quite a lot of eye contact, and I find myself looking away, but I always seemed to get lost in his eyes again. The crowd claps, and I jokingly curtsy. I hand the microphone to the lady, and return to my seat after. I am way too embarrassed to say anything at this point.
"What, are we not gonna talk about what just happened?" Ashton says, guesturing to where I was just standing. I giggle at bit at the drummers reaction.
"I felt like I was interrupting something," Calum mumbles.
"Mike and-" Luke pauses, "What's your name?"
The interviewer walks over to me again, allowing me to speak into her microphone. I state my name into the mic, already laughing at the idiots in front of me.
"Mike and Y/n sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G! First-"
"Shut up, Luke." Michael says, pinching the bridge of his nose.
"Anyway-" Ashton states before the game carried on. I did catch Mikey looking my way a few times, but he could be looking at my friend as well. She is quite gorgeous.
The show goes on, and then it ends. I can't help but feel dissapointed as I leave. What did I expect? Security to come get me at his request? My life isn't a fanfiction where all my dreams come true. I'm just grateful I could see them at the live radio show. I'm going to be on the internet I guess.
I wonder when they're posting the video. Did I look okay? I mean, if there's a chance of a cute boy seeing me I'm going to try my best to look attractive. That doesn't mean I'll actually be attractive though. I shake the thoughts away, as I enter my apartment. I think a nap would be good.
*****
My week has been pretty casual. The video came out, and I luckily didn't look awful. I didn't sound awful either, which is a big relief. Everything is quite normal, aside from me obsessing over Mikey's eyes. I can't get that duet out of my head.
Suddenly my phone starts vibrating like crazy. I pick it up to see a few notifications on my Twitter, as well as a recent post from Mikey. I tap on it, and unlock my phone.
Does anyone know this girl's account ?
*photo attachment*
I tap on the photo, and realize it's of me and Mikey singing the duet. What? Am I still dreaming? I scroll to the comments to see the top comment is from my friend.
Yeah, it's @y/t/n! xx
Underneath that is a reply from Micheal.
Thanks :)
A new notification pops up on my screen, confusing me. I tap on it, and I swear my heart stops beating. He followed me. My stomach jumps into my throat when another notification comes up...
He messaged me.
Michael5SOS: Hi :) Do you happen to remember a doing a duet with me?
y/t/n: Hmm... When was this? I have had a long career of doing duets with successful artists.

Michael5SOS: Ummm... I think so? I'm not quite sure to be honest.
