-Michael's POV-
-Two Months Later-
@KyraWrightXO my baby girl is 2 months today. Gunna be doing a M&G kinda thing later on with the one and only @OllyMurs ! watch this space guys!
Why is she doing a meet and greet with Olly? Are they together? No they can't be..
"Mikey! Chill bud, I heard Kyra got signed with Simon, she features on Olly's new single as a starting point. Because she's a new mother, Simon doesn't want her to release her own stuff yet and he wants her to get into the swing of things with Sophie first." Luke explained, noticing me staring at her tweet. Phew..
-Kyra's POV-
-At The Meet&Greet-
"Well, hello there guys!" I spoke loudly into the microphone I held tightly in my hands. The crowd in front of me cheered.
"I'm here today with the amazing Essex lad, Mr Olly Murs!" I turned towards Olly, who smiled at me before turning to face the crowd and waving.
"This is being livestreamed aswell, so people watching, hey!" I waved at the moving camera just in front of the stage, smiling.
"Does anyone wanna hear a few songs?" Olly questioned. A few song titles were shouted. Up' was shouted a few times, me and Olly smiling as we both heard it, our song getting more popular by the minute.
"'Up' it is." I sat on the stool that was conveniently placed behind me.
I drew a broken heart, right on your window pane
Waited for your reply, here in the pouring rain
Just breathe against the glass, leave me some kind of sign
I know the hurt won't pass, yeah

From your side to mine, I'll be the one to cross over

That's up
I opened my eyes and stared out into the crowd- claps and screams dominated my hearing. I smiled and hugged Olly as the adrenaline properly kicked in. My first proper performance as a recording artist, and damn was it a good one.
"Now I need a break to prepare for my next song, Kyra is going to perform a cover of The Script and some other songs.." Olly said as he made his way off the portable stage, towards our break tent.
"I'm going to perform, as Olly said, a cover of The Script. Any idea which song?"
"Breakeven!"
"Hall Of Fame!"
"The Man Who Can't Be Moved!"
"Yeah, I'm gunna sing 'The Man Who Can't Be Moved', hope you enjoy it!" I grabbed my acoustic guitar from the stagehand behind me before putting my mic into the mic stand also provided. I sat down on the stool again as I slightly tuned it and began strumming.
Going back to the corner where I first saw you
Gunna camp in my sleeping bag, I'm not gunna move
Got some words on cardboard, got your picture in my hand
Saying, "if you see this boy, can you tell him where I am?"
Some try to hand me money, but they don't understand
I'm not broke, I'm just a broken-hearted girl
I know it makes no sense, what else can I do?
How can I move on when I'm still in love with you?
Cause if one day you wake up and find that you're missing me
And if your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I could be
Thinking maybe you come back here to place that we meet
And you see me waiting for you, on the corner of the street
So I'm not moving, I'm not moving
Policeman said "girl, you can't stay here."
I said "there's someone I'm waiting for if its a day, a month, a year gotta stand my ground even if it rains or snows, if he changes his mind, this is the first place he will go."
Cause if one day you wake up and find that you're missing me
And if your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I could be
Thinking maybe you come back here to place that we meet
And you see me waiting for you, on the corner of the street
So I'm not moving, I'm not moving
I'm not moving, I'm not moving
People talk about the guy, who's waiting on a girl, oh
I know who's in his shoes with a big hole in his world
Maybe I'll get famous, as the girl who can't be moved
And maybe you won't need to, but you'll see me on the news
And you'll come running to the corner, Cause you'll know it's just for you
I'm the girl who can't be moved
I'm the girl who can't be moved
Cause if one day you wake up and find that you're missing me
And if your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I could be
Thinking maybe you come back here to place that we meet
And you see me waiting for you, on the corner of the street
So I'm not moving, I'm not moving (X2)
Going back to the corner where I first saw you
Gunna camp in my sleeping bag, I'm not gunna move
I took a deep breath, smiling widely at the crowd, ready for another song.
"One Direction!"
"Okay, what song?" I smiled down towards the little girl who wanted a 1D song.
"Um, You and I please." she smiled sweetly. I reached and high-fived her
"Hey Olly! I'm gunna need you to play guitar as well for this one, I've taught you this so you should know it." I teased him, he smiled and put the guitar strap round his shoulder, he also singing parts where he was needed.
I figured it out, I figured it out from black and white
Seconds and hours, maybe they had to take some time
I know how it goes, I know how it goes from wrong and right
Silence and sound, did they ever hold each other tight like us?
Did they ever fight like us?
You and I
We don't wanna be like them
We can make it to the end
Nothing can come between you and I
Not even the gods above, can separate the two of us
No nothing can come between you and I
Oh you and I
I figured it out, I saw the mistakes of up and down
Meet in the middle, there's always room for common ground
I see what it's like, I see what it like for day and night
Never together, Cause they see things in a different light
Like us, but they never tried, like us
You and I
We don't wanna be like them
We can make it to the end
Nothing can come between you and I
Not even the gods above, can separate the two of us..
Cause you and I..we don't wanna be like them
We can make it to the end
Nothing can come between you and I
Not even the gods above, can separate the two of us
No nothing can come between you and I
Oh you and I
"Okay, that's it from me! So who has a question?"
-Michael's POV-
I found myself watching the live stream of Kyra's M&G with Olly, I couldn't help myself.
She was singing a cover of 'The Man Who Can't Be Moved' and it was amazing, she was changing the 'he's' and 'him's' so it worked for her and I found myself awestruck.
After a 1D song, it was her Q&A time with the crowd.
"How's Sophie doing?" Pretty standard question.
"She's doing fine at the moment, a little active at night but it's normal, I would have brought her along with me today but as I said in my tweet, I have my reasons for not bringing her and I'm sure I'll tell you when I feel it's right." she smiled. I watched as she picked another person.
"Do you still love Michael?" Oh.
"Is it that obvious?" She laughed, giggling into the microphone.
"Yeah, yeah I do. No matter what.." she answered seriously, looking towards the camera, as if she knew I was watching. Why is she being so open about how she feels?
"What's your relationship with Sophie's father like? Who is he?" Kyra froze. Oh no.
"Um well, he is my ex boyfriend, before I met Mikey." she answered confidently.
"What made you break it off with him?"
"Um I-i don't feel comfortable answering that I'm sorry, it's personal." smart move.
"What? It can't be that bad, it's not like he raped you!" A blonde girl shouted from the back of the crowd, smirking at Kyra. She sat there, frozen on the spot. The crowd falling silent and looking expectedly at Kyra, some people giving dirty looks to the blonde girl.
"I-I um-m.." she stuttered, trying to change the subject but not being able to think. Her cheeks turning a bright red, tears filling her beautiful blue eyes.
The crowd gasped, now understanding that he did that to her. Small murmurs passed through the crowd. Two girls, around 17, slowly made their way up onto the stage, hugging Kyra as she cried, probably reliving that experience in her head.
I couldn't stand sitting here while she is feeling like that. I needed to see her and I don't care what management or anyone else has to say. I minimised the livestream and got the closest airport's website up, booking the next flight to Sydney which happened to be in an hour so I had just enough time to get through security. I decided on packing 2 days worth of clothes, knowing I left some rogue pieces of clothing back in my room at the house.
I left a note for the guys explaining where I was going. I wasn't going to miss anything as we didn't have any promo stuff to do for the next 5 days so I was determined to spend them with Kyra and Sophie. I began my long trek to the airport, not wanting to risk my hired car being stolen or robbed.
-30 Minutes Later-
I finally reached the airport, showing the kiosk woman my boarding pass that I printed off and my passport. She directed me towards security, with the line being only 6 people long, i was quick to go through and relax.
@KyraWrightXO sorry about me getting all emotional today at my Q&A. I'm going to be relaxing and looking after my angel for a while now, so there's no single or music out yet, but I promise there will be eventually. I hope you all understand x
So that means that she will be home, so I can surprise her. I have to make sure that I avoid Chloe at all costs; she's in NYC right now, doing a photo shoot or something- but I wasn't really paying attention when she told me so I can't be 100% sure. She is due back in Australia within the next few days and hopefully she won't know that I'm here.
@Michael5SOS surprising someone very soon! :))
It's not too revealing, I suspect most of the fans and Kyra will think that I'm surprising Chloe.
"Flight 36 to Sydney, Australia is now boarding. May all first class passengers please make their way towards the gate." that's me. Here goes.
-Kyra's POV-
Even though Sophie is only a few months old, she is already getting too much to handle. I don't know if I can cope with the stress and worry that is to come. I finally set her down for night so I figured that I could use this time for a well deserved bubble bath or at least a small nap because knowing Sophie she will wake up within 2 hours anyway so I can't go crazy with relaxing.
-2 Hours Later-
12:52am.
I could hear Sophie crying from her Moses basket in my bedroom- I decided that I would set up camp in Michael's bedroom since I was feeling particularly lonely right now. I walked tiredly towards my room. As i was opening the door, I saw a shadow lean into the basket and pick Sophie up gently, resting her in their arms. Who the hell is that?!
I walked slowly towards whoever it was. Sophie yawned and drifted back off to sleep as she got comfortable in the persons arms. The person put her back in the pink basket and slowly turned round, coming face to face with me.
"Michael?!" I whisper-shouted. Surprised to see him. Happy almost.
"Hey." he said casually, smiling and pulling me into a hug. His arms pressing down on my back and making direct contact with the cut, that still hadn't healed properly.
"Ouch." I winced, backing away from him.
"What's up? Did I hurt you?" He asked quickly, concern laced his whisper.
"No, s'fine you didn't hurt me, the cut still hasn't healed.." I explained, regretting it immediately as he moved forward, determined to see.
"What happened?" He questioned unknowingly.
"Your girlfriend happened." I mumbled, not wanting to start unwanted drama.
"Shit, Kyra. You should have told me.." he looked into my eyes, his leaf green ones staring into my ocean blue ones.
"No I shouldn't have and I'm glad I didn't, Cause I know you wouldn't have believed me." I stated, crossing my arms.
"Ky, you know I would have believed anything you said."
"Then why didn't you? Zayn can barely be in the same room as a conversation about you, Perrie is no better. The guys are confused, and so am I. What did I do Mike? We were fine, perfect even, and I then go to watch TV the next morning and you're kissing a brunette girl who happens to be a perfect model, leaving for Melbourne without telling me. I'm not even mad, just disappointed. Was it the commitment? The responsibility? Because I told you to not-"
"Ky baby, just shut up for a second please? I need to explain everything to you, I've probably just risked the bands future by flying here to see you but you need to hear what I have to say." I nodded, paying close attention.
"Well when I left the hospital I went home to explain everything that happened that day to everyone. After I'd finished, Ash got a call from management, asking us to go in for an urgent meeting. When we got there they told us that we had to go to Melbourne for promo and that we were leaving the next day, that's why I planned to see you, so I could tell you and say goodbye. I got called back alone, they wanted me to be in a fake relationship with a model, no idea why. I had to say an 'emotional' goodbye to her by kissing and cuddling at the airport. The fans weren't happy, wondering who she was and where you were. I didn't want to do it baby, but if I didn't the band would be at risk of being dropped- that is literally the only reason why I agreed, I couldn't have that now that we had got where we wanted to be. I know Chloe attacked you, she took the whole 'relationship' part seriously, she is so bitchy and clingy and she wants every designer material item known to woman. My contract said that I had to do it, make her happy. I even had to cut contact with you, that didn't work did it?" I laughed, knowing it didn't.
"I wouldn't have signed the contract if I'd have known what it would involve, I thought that I could still be you but management obviously had other ideas. Kyra, I love you and I always have, that message that I apparently sent to you, bailing on seeing you, management sent that, they took my phone away and sent it against my will.." I tried to calm him down knowing he was getting frustrated, slowly pulling him in to a bear hug, cuddling him tightly.
"Mikey, it's fine. I forgive you so don't worry about it." I smiled softly.
"It's not fine, I still let it happen, still kissed her like I meant it. If Ash didn't ask me about the relationship, we wouldn't be here right now.." he began to tear up. I've never seen him cry and I'm not sure I want to. He is obviously angry with himself a lot if he's crying.
"Mike listen to me for once, seriously don't worry about it. I completely forgive you. My reaction was probably out of whack because of Sophie, which reminds me, I need to tell you something about her, it's kinda important.."
"What is it? Is she okay?" He spoke quickly.
"She has Autism." I said quietly, looking at Mikey wanting to see his reaction. His eyes turning back to look at the baby girl in the Moses basket, tears again forming in his eyes as he walked towards her, leaning down to kiss her on the forehead.
"Are you coping? You know with the news?" He walked slowly towards me.
"As well as expected I suppose, I've known since she was like 2 days old and it's kinda sunk it a little, still not completely over it though." I confessed quietly into his ear, him nodding.
"I get it, it is a lot to take in, she'll live with this all her life. Promise me that you'll come and talk to me whenever you need to, about anything, even this." he questioned, cupping my face with his palms, looking into my blue eyes.
"I promise." I wrapped my arms around his shoulders, him putting his around my waist, bringing me closer for a kiss.
"Movie and then bed?" I smiled and nodded eagerly at his suggestion.
