songs listened to while writing: All Shook Up: If I Can Dream, Burnin' Love, Silver Lining- Lights & Motion

------------------

"You're the devil in disguise!" I could hear Kenz singing on stage while I was backstage looking for Louis. "There you are!" I grab his arm "What?" he looked at me and I rolled my eyes. "Is the sign ready for El?" he nods "Okay, did you tell everyone?"

"Thena," Lou puts his hands on my shoulders "you're more nervous for this than I am."

"I want it to go okay," I whine and Louis chuckles "It will." He nods "Now go let your love sing to you," I shove him and he laughs "Alright Thena, you go talk with yours."

I spin around and there stood Harry. "Ed," he said in a raspy voice and I giggled. "Should I be concerned about you leaving me for an Ed?" I question as he pulled me over to him. "You've got no worries angel," he kisses my head. "I promise you that."

"She sings this beautifully," I murmur while resting my head on his chest like always. "Look at the way Lou's looking at her," I nod as my eyes stayed on Louis.

"With in my arms you'll come to know," Eleanor sang while hitting all the high notes.

And Louis's eyes were so bright while watching her sing, we all knew he was fighting back the smile.

"See you on stage in a bit," Harry kisses my temple before going to get into place to go on stage. Eleanor comes over to me and I pull her into a hug. "Can you believe this is the last night?" she looks at me "It flew by," I sigh "it was so much fun." Eleanor nods as Harry began to sing If I Can Dream.

I'll never get tired of watching him sing.

---------------------

"Gosh, all of this love makes me feel so warm and good and-" Harry starts saying while all of us stood on stage. "And I just have to say that the person I'm in love with is Ed!" He points at me with the biggest grin on his face, and everyone's jaws drop including mine.

"Ed we can make this work-" Harry starts and I cut him off. "Oh, Chad, do you mean it?" I say back in my normal high pitched voice before covering my mouth. "Ed," Harry wearily starts "what's wrong with your voice?"

"Natalie?" Louis chuckles and I take off the hat. "Yeah," I say "it's me."

Both Camilla and Harry scream, making everyone laugh.

"Ed- you're a girl!" Harry gasped "O! I am of fortune's fool!" Camilla put a hand to her face.

"I am so glad I came here tonight," El says with her hands on her hips. "So there's really no Ed?" Harry questions "No," I say and he frowns. "But I really liked Ed," he sighs and Camilla looks over.

"Me too."

I walk over to Camilla "I'm sorry Miss. Sandra," I start "I never meant to decieve you. It's just I thought if Chad saw me as a friend first, he'd see the real me." "Well why would you want me to see that?" Harry says from behind me and I spin around.

"'Cause I'm totally in love with you."

"Look- I- I think it's best if I head out." Harry backs up and my face falls. "What?" I look at him "Too much is happenin' too fast! I gotta move on-" "But Chad-" I start moving closer to him and he backs up.

"I meant what I said about this town folks," he looks at Zoe and Ash. "And I wish you two kids all the luck in the world." And he walks off.

------------------

"You okay, honey?" Louis puts an arm around me. "Oh sure, dad," I look up at him and he frowns. "If there anything I can do?" I sigh "I'm okay, dad, really-" I push off of him and the piano part for Fools Fall In Love starts.
