This is love.?

Coming back

(Made a change, fast forwarding to December 1th but the events are still current, same thing is happening just a different time)

I wake up to my phone ringing,

I reach for it, unplugging it from the charger and putting it up to my ear

 “Hello?” I ask groggily, looking over at the clock reading 4:23 A.M.

“Hey.” James says fast, sounding frustrated and frazzled

“What’s the matter?” I ask

“Umm, so we just went on stage last night and I thought we did fine but they didn’t, they said out first song basically sucked, and that we should sound better by now and Cheryl of course had to criticize out choreography even though it was changed last minute. I think we’re going home and I can’t leave, I don’t want to leave, we’ve worked too hard to go home now.” He rambles on very very very worried, I run my eyes, and yawn, too tired to keep up with his rambling

“James! Calm down, okay? You guys are amazing and there is nothing that is going to contradict that. If you guys go home, then you guys go home. But that doesn’t mean everything is over, you ARE going to be something big, you guys ARE going to blow up, you guys are too good and talented to just stop here, I haven’t seen it yet but I’m going to watch it right now okay? I promise.” I assure him,

“Leigha, what if I go home. I can’t go home, what is there to go home to? Of course I miss my Mum and everyone back there but this is where I want to be, I don’t want to go back to Essex.” I hear him starting to cry

“James.” I say sitting up “You HAVE to relax.” I say, trying to calm him down

“I’m trying but I can’t. I think we’re going home. Even if we do get eliminated I don’t want to go home.” He says quietly

“If you guys do get eliminated you are going to have to go home, there is no other choice.” I state

“Yeah there is.” I protests

“No there isn’t.” I breathe

“If we do get illuminated the boys and I said that we wanted to do something to take our minds off of it.”

“So what are you going to do?” I ask, really confused about where he was going with this one

“We said that we wanted to go to America.” I says sounding a little bit more enthused

“What?”

“Yeah, Charlie and I are the only ones that have been there and the rest of us really want to go. So if we do get illuminated than I think that we are going to go take a little trip.” He tells me
