Beth's POV

I was starting to get worried, Em has been great at hiding her feelings but what she doesn't realise is that when she is happy she sings but I haven't heard her sing. I need to check with the other first, that is why we are all gathered around while Em showers.

"Has anybody heard Em sing lately?" I decided to get straight to the point. Everybody, including Harry, shook their heads looking confused. " Well, Em is really good at hiding how she actually feels. But she doesn't realise that when she is happy she sings, randomly." They all looked as if they understood, but only Michael commented " have you asked little squirt, he might have or be able to help at least."

" His name is Alex and that's a good idea actually!" I screamed for Alex to come here and when he did we asked him if he had heard Em singing. First he shook his head but then started nodded furiously. " She, she is singing in the shower now!" He answer all of our confused expressions. All I us darted for the stairs and stopped outside the bathroom. Alex was right, she was singing Kiss me, Kiss me which was a song I wrote for her. Relief swept over all our faces. She sounded amazing through a door so I can't wait for them to hear her properly. That's when Em obviously slipped because there was a loud thud, before I could stop him Luke was rushing through the door only I find Em in a towel laying on the floor laughing uncontrollably. She wasn't my friend for no reason, and to think our friendship started because I was being threatened by an older. Luke's face went bright red as did Em's. "Well, I see you guys were checking up on me" she said raising her eyebrow, she always did that, the song came to an end but the next one was Long Way Home, a song that her and Cal wrote when they were in London. They exchanged the "look" and both started singing their parts.

Calum:

Take me back to the middle of nowhere

Back to the place only you and I share

Remember all the memories?

The fireflies and make-believe

Kicking back in the old school yard

Singing songs on our guitars

This is our reality

Crazy stupid, you and me

We know this is the way it's supposed to be

So we're taking the long way home

'Cause I don't wanna be wasting my time alone

I wanna get lost and drive forever with you,

Talkin' bout nothing, yeah, whatever, baby

So we're taking the long way home tonight

Em:

Now we're stuck in the middle of nowhere

Yeah, you know we took our time to get there

We're hiding out in a dream

Catching fire like kerosene

And you know I'd never let you down

'Til the sun comes up, we can own this town

Something like make-believe

Living in a movie scene

I know this is the way it's supposed to be

Both:

So we're taking the long way home

'Cause I don't wanna be wasting my time alone

I wanna get lost and drive forever with you,

Talkin' bout nothing, yeah, whatever, baby
