The Irish One {N.H}

Chapter 48

I walked out onto the stage once more in my dress along with many of the others and took hold of a microphone. The lights dimmed with a spotlight on me, and glitter falling down onto the stage and into the audience as well, creating a glowing affect and shimmer to the stage.

I know I can't take one more step towards you
'Cause all that's waiting is regret
Don't you know I'm not your ghost anymore
You lost the love I loved the most

I learned to live half alive
And now you want me one more time

And who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Who do you think you are?

I hear you're asking all around
If I am anywhere to be found
But I have grown too strong
To ever fall back in your arms

And I've learned to live half alive
And now you want me one more time

And who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Who do you think you are?

And it took so long just to feel alright
Remember how to put back the light in my eyes
I wish I had missed the first time that we kissed
'Cause you broke all your promises
And now you're back
You don't get to get me back

And who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
So don't come back for me
Don't come back at all

And who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
Tearing love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the ice inside your soul
Don't come back for me
Don't come back at all

Who do you think you are?

Who do you think you are?

Who do you think you are?

Spins and flips, ballet routines were performed throughout the song. I spun in circles as I sung and held my leg to my head, signing and dancing my heart out. A few more songs later, I thought we were all done, but obviously everyone on the stage thought different, as the girls went to get changed and I went to Nikki, asking what was going on. She threw the same dress I had on but at white at me, and I changed into it. She curled pieces of my hair before pushing me out and onto the stage. Niall was standing in the spotlight and he motioned for me to come by him. The rest of the lads were standing in the corner behind a microphone, all in a tux. The dancers all walked out and stood in the back.

So your friend's been telling me
You've been sleeping with my sweater
And that you can't stop missing me
Bet my friend's been telling you
I'm not doing much better
'Cause I'm missing half of me

And being here without you is like I'm waking up to

Only half a blue sky
Kinda there but not quite
I'm walking around with just one shoe
I'm half a heart without you
I'm half a man at best,
With half an arrow in my chest
I miss everything we do,
I'm half a heart without you

Forget all we said that night
No, it doesn't even matter
'Cause we both got split in two
If you could spare an hour or so,
We'll go for lunch down by the river
We can really talk it through

And being here without you is like I'm waking up to

Only half a blue sky
Kinda there but not quite
I'm walking around with just one shoe
I'm half a heart without you
I'm half a man at best,
With half an arrow in my chest
'Cause I miss everything we do,
I'm half a heart without you

Half a heart without you,
I'm half a heart without you

Though I try to get you out of my head
The truth is I got lost without you
And since then I've been waking up to

Only half a blue sky (only half a blue sky)
Kinda there but not quite
I'm walking around with just one shoe
I'm half a heart without you
I'm half a man at best (half a man at best)
With half an arrow in my chest
I miss everything we do,
I'm half a heart without you

Without you, without you, half a heart without you
Without you, without you, I'm half a heart without you

Just then, the two of us leaned in, and kissed in the middle of the stage. Everyone cheered and whistled as we spread apart, and he put his forehead on mine.

"We good?" he whispered to me.

"Were good," I smiled kissing him one more time, and he looked down at my hand, noticing the promise ring on my finger and the necklace that still was on my neck.

I watched as he smiled and said a quick, "I love you, Isabelle Marie."
