Eleanor and Danielle both stared at me.
"He wants you to sing with him!?" Said Danielle.
"How does he know what you sound like?" Asked Eleanor.
I took a deep breath to explain how Harry and I had sung together, but just then Harry poked his head down and reached out a hand to help me up. I took a deep breath. This was my dream. I loved singing, and I wasn't half bad, either. But this...
I took his hand. He pulled me up on stage.
"Just sing for the chorus and every other verse. I'll start, unless you want to," Harry whispered in my ear.
I shook my head.
"Ok. You'll be fine."
I didn't feel fine.
"Smoke alarm went off at 9
I woke up, wiped the sleep out of my eyes
She left a note "I'll be back in 5"
Well, I'm still waiting for that moment to arrive, hey
I was told to put my job in front of you
But it won't hold me like you do," began Harry. I took a deep breath for the chorus.
"But I do it for the love
Waiting on the gold rush
Keep it on the edge
Smoking on a roll up
When I see my friends
All they say is hold up
And remember the time
When we were in school
Listening to grown ups
Didn't learn a thing
But then again you know what
You know how to sing
But you don't know anything
Other than that
So maybe you should learn to love her
Like, like the way
Maybe you should learn to love her
Like, like the way
Maybe you should learn to love her
Like, like the way
And maybe you should learn to love her
Like, like the way
You want to be loved"
Ok. Solo time. My palms were sweating, and I felt faint. Just make it through the song, I thought to myself. Just one song.
"I never told her that I liked
The way she dances slightly out of time
And pretends she knows the words
To a song she's never heard
But I tell her all the time, hey
I was told to put my job in front of you
But it won't hold me like you do
But I do it for the love
Waiting on the gold rush
Keep it on the edge
Smoking on a roll up
When I see my friends
All they say is hold up
And remember the time
When we were in school
Listening to grown ups
Didn't learn a thing
But then again you know what
You know how to sing
But you don't know anything
Other than that
So maybe you should learn to love her
Like, like the way
Maybe you should learn to love her
Like, like the way
Maybe you should learn to love her
Like, like the way
And maybe you should learn to love her
Like, like the way
You want to be loved
Hey"
I couldn't do this anymore. The room started to spin, and the walls seemed to close in. I looked up. The ceiling was getting higher and higher. I laughed at that, and then I saw Niall's worried face instead of the ceiling. I realized that I was falling and tried to grab onto his hand, but it was too late. My head hit the floor with a thunk, too loud in the all-to-quiet arena, and the world went black.

Ok, I know this is completely cliche, short, and terrible, but I promise it'll all make sense in the next chapter. Also, I am SO FREAKING SORRY for the terrible cliffhanger. I'm a terrible person, I know. But I wanted to do another update today. And THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR READING I LOVE YOU ALL
