“Conor Maynard? You’re on in 5!” Conor looked down at me and embraced me in a large hug.

“Listen to the words of the song, I mean really listen to them. I’m singing this for you Ali.” He rested his head on mine. There was a cough behind us and I spun round to see Anna raising her eyebrows at us with a huge smile on her face.

“Not interrupting anything here am I?” She laughed and walked away, looking back now and again winking at us.

“I’m…sorry about her.” Conor smiled before giving me a kiss on the cheek and walked off to get ready for his performance. I stood by the side of the stage and waited for him to start singing.

“Welcome everybody, Conor Maynard!” His body stepped on stage and my breathe caught in my breathe the music started to play and someone tapped me on the shoulder. I didn’t even look round to see who it was.

“GO AWAY IM BUSY!” I heard someone walk off and Conor began to sing.

“Have you ever been in love?

Then you know just what I'm talkin about

It's like when you really know

You finally found the person you want

And you wanna spend the rest of your life

I thought I've been there before (yeah)

But now that I'm sure (yeah)

I finally found somebody who cares (who cares)

I've given my heart and my soul to her

And I just want the whole world to know

You're the reason that I breathe (breathe)

I want you to know that

If you were to leave, then I couldn't go back

My life will be incomplete, without you here

You're the reason that I breathe

Ladies if you got a man

Fellas if you got a girl

Why don't you tell 'em that they mean the whole world

To you, you, you, you

You're the reason that I breathe

The feeling you get when you call them

And they don't answer, and feels like

Your whole world's about to stop (stop)

And you can't believe somehow,

Somebody makes you feel this way (this way)

I'm talking about you can't eat (eat)

You can't sleep (sleep)

You can't think at all

They're like the puzzle that's been missing in your life

Why don't you look 'em in the eye and tell them

You're the reason that I breathe

I want you to know that

If you were to leave, then I couldn't go back

My life will be incomplete without you here

You're the reason that I breathe

Ladies if you got a man

Fellas if you got a girl

Why don't you tell 'em that they mean the whole world

To you, you, you, you

You're the reason that I breathe

I was broken before I met you (met you)

Now I ain't trippin' like I used to (used to)

And I gotta say (gotta say)

That you made my life much better

I can barely breathe, I can barely breathe

When you're not with me (ohhh)

You're the reason that I breathe

I want you to know that

If you were to leave, then I couldn't go back

My life will be incomplete, without you here

You're the reason that I breathe

I said I could barely breathe

I want you to know that if you were to leave

Then I couldnt go back

My life would be incomplete without you here

Tell em

You're the reason that I breathe

If you got a man uhh, if you got a girl

Why don't you tell 'em that they mean the whole world

To you, you, you, you (woaah)

If there's somebody out there, just like me

Put your hands up and tell her

You're the reason that I breathe...” By the end of the song I hadn’t realised the amount of tears streaming down my face. I listened to every word Conor song and it was beautiful. This boy is something special.

Conor’s P.O.V

“You’re the reason that I breathe…” I sung the last note of the song and the room erupted with cheers I smiled at the room and Dermot came on stage.

“That was just, wow Conor! You could feel the emotion in your voice there mate, lets see what the judges have to say.” The judges gave there positive opinions on my singing but I couldn’t concentrate on what they were saying. There was only one thing on my mind. Alise.

“Thank you so much for the positive comments and It would mean so much to me if I got through to the next round so please vote for me!” I walked off stage to see Alise crying. “Ali! What’s wrong?!”

“T-that was beautiful Conor.” I smiled down at her and pulled her into a hug. She looked up at me through her wet lashes and smiled at me. “I don’t know what I’m feeling but I like it…a lot.” She nuzzled her face back into my chest and I wrapped my arms tighter around her. Shit…
