Chapter 17:

6 MONTHS LATER

I have a couple shows left for my London and Australia tour.

Yes, after the tour with 1D I headlined my own tour. It's been going great! Most of my own shows were sold out! I'm even coming out with an album soon.

As for Calum... I haven't seen him in person since the airport and it breaks my heart. We FaceTime, call, and text each other everyday but it's not enough. I miss him like crazy. I love him like crazy. Each day I fall more in love with him and nothing is going to change that.

5sos has came out with a album and Calum told me that one of the songs was for me. I haven't heard of it yet but I know the title.

Close As Strangers

I am currently on the bus heading to one of the hotels here in Sydney. Calum texted me and sent me the link to the song. I clicked on it and listened to it.

"Six weeks since I've been away

And now you're sayin' everything has changed

And I'm afraid that I might be losing you

And every night that we spend alone

It kills me thinking of you on your own

And I wish I was back home next to you

Oh, everyday

You feel a little bit further away

And I don't know what to say

Are we wasting time

Talking on a broken line?

Telling you I haven't seen your face in ages

I feel like we're as close as strangers

Won't give up

Even though it hurts so much

Every night I'm losing you in a thousand faces

Now it feels we're as close as strangers

Late night calls and another text

Is this as good as we're gonna get?

Another timezone taking me away from you

Living dreams in fluorescent lights

While you and I are running out of time

But you know that I'll always wait for you

Oh, everyday

You feel a little bit further away

And I don't know what to say

Are we wasting time

Talking on a broken line?

Telling you I haven't seen your face in ages

I feel like we're as close as strangers

Won't give up

Even though it hurts so much

Every night I'm losing you in a thousand faces

Now it feels we're as close as strangers

On the phone

I can tell that you wanna move on

Through the tears

I can hear that I shouldn't have gone

Every day gets harder to stay away from you

So tell me...

Are we wasting time

Talking on a broken line?

Telling you I haven't seen your face in ages

I feel like we're as close as strangers

Wasting time

Talking on a broken line

Telling you I haven't seen your face in ages

I feel like we're as close as strangers

Won't give up

Even though it hurts so much

Every night I'm losing you in a thousand faces

Now it feels we're as close as strangers

Six months since I went away

And I know everything has changed

But tomorrow I'll be coming back to you "

(SO I KNOW ASH AND MIKEY WROTE THUS SONG BUT LETS JUST SAY ASH AND CAL WROTE IT OKAY? YAS CASHTON. ALRIGHT. LETS MOVE ON.)

By the end of the song I was in tears. I grabbed my phone and dialed Calum's number by memory.

-Hello?

"Hey, it's me. I just listened to the song." I said into the phone wiping a tear away.

-Oh, you did. Ash and I wrote it.

"It's beautiful by the way. Do you feel like we are wasting time?" I asked.

-I don't know... Kinda.

"Oh. Well where are you heading now?"

-London.

"I was just there a couple weeks ago."

-I know.

"Alright well I have to go."

-Good bye, Sawyer.

"Good bye, Cal."

-Hey, Saw?

"Yes?"

-I love you.

I smiled into the phone. "And I love you too." I said and hung up.

•••

After the show last night I went straight to bed to get some sleep for the last show today. It's at the same place as last night's show.

My dad has been with me all trough the tour. I looked out the window and saw that it was raining. I walked to my dad's room and knocked on the door.

"What's up?" He asked opening the door.

"It's raining." I said bummed.

"Doctor Who marathon?" He asked.

"Yes." I said smiling an walking into the room. Dad pulled out his iPad and got on Netflix. I got us some snacks and drinks and sat back down on the bed.

---

I was getting ready to sing my last song when somebody walked up on the stage with a mic. "Hey." That person said.

That voice. It sounded like- wait. It couldn't be him. He's in London.

They walked out of the dark into the light where I could see them and my eyes went wide and I ran into the love of my life's arms.
