c'est la vie || Calum Hood

"This song is about the crazy stories that we now have to tell."

Cheers were heard everywhere, lights flashed. We were at the long awaited concert. Noel was sitting next to me, front row and VIP.

She is going on tour with us, deciding to have some fun for a year. She was screaming like she didn't know these boys in real life.

Fans around us were jumping up and down, signs were held high. I started cheering as well, deciding to join in on the fun.

Songs started playing and they started going on stage one by one. First came Ashton, next came Michael, then Calum, and finally Luke. Everyone went wild.

Noel sang along to all of the songs, I didn't know the lyrics. I tried to learn them before coming, but it was no use.

Noel and I danced around our chairs, careful to not hit anybody. Calum locked eyes with me and made a funny face. I giggled and made one back.

A sadish song came on and the lights were low. Everyone pulled out their phone and started moving them from side to side. Calum had the lead in this song so I just listened, taking in his angelic voice.

The song came to an end and everyone clapped and screamed. The music stopped.

"So, today, we want to honor 2 very special people that had an impact in our lives." Calum said into the microphone. The crowd silenced for a moment. "Cassiopeia and Noel, please come on stage."

My eyes widened when a security guard came over to us. He escorted us to the steps leading up to the stage. The boys waited for us at the top.

Noel was starstruck, staring at the huge crowd with her mouth agape. Calum extended his hand for me, I gladly took it.

People started cheering again when we went on stage.

"Noel! You made it!" Someone screamed. "I follow your fan account!"

She went beet red and smiled at the people. Luke pulled from backstage 2 stools, setting them facing them.

"This song is about the crazy stories that we now have to tell." Luke explained and started strumming his guitar.

"I can still taste the ocean like it was today

You said please, keep on holding your hands and the rain, it came too soon

I will wait for you to love me again

I guess I was running from something

I was running back to you

Lost here in London with nothing

I'm still running back to you

If you could love me again

I could let go of everything

If I was an island in search of castaways

Maybe I'll find you (I'll find you) here

And the rain, it came too soon

I will wait for you to love me again

I guess I was running from something

I was running back to you

Lost here in London with nothing

I'm still running back to you

If you could love me again

I could let go of everything

The darkest night never felt so bright with you by my side

The darkest night never felt so bright with you by my side

The darkest night never felt so bright with you by my side

The darkest night never felt so bright with you by my side

Nothing like the rain, nothing like the rain

When you're in outer space, when you're in outer space

Nothing like the rain, nothing like the rain

When you're in outer space, when you're in outer space

Nothing like the rain, nothing like the rain

When you're in outer space, when you're in outer space

Nothing like the rain, nothing like the rain

When you're in outer space, when you're in outer space

Love me like you did, love me like you did

I'll give you anything, I'll give you anything

Love me like you did, love me like you did

I'll give you anything, I'll give you anything

Carry on, let the good times roll

Sail along, let your path unfold

And it won't be long, won't be long, won't be long

You know it's gonna get better, you know it's gonna get better

Say a prayer for the broken bones

Cause who cares? We're all going home

And it won't be long, won't be long, won't be long

You know it's gonna get better, you know it's gonna get better

I got one foot in the golden life, one foot in the gutter

So close to the other side, so far from the wonder

I got one foot in the golden life, one foot in the gutter

So sick of the tug of war that keeps pulling me under

Let the good times roll

Let the good times roll

Carry on, outlast the ignorance

Moving on, survive the innocence

And it won't be long, won't be long, won't be long

You know it's gonna get better, you know it's gonna get better"

I had a smile on my face that couldn't be washed away even if I wanted to. This is perfect, a moment I would remember forever.
