Hi, I'm Hannah Gracelyn-Louise Oxlade-Chamberlain, the 10 year old only daughter of Alexander David Mark Oxlade-Chamberlain and Perrie Louise Oxlade-Chamberlain. I have two younger twin brothers named Christopher Alexander Louis Oxlade-Chamberlain and Connor Pierre Michael Oxlade-Chamberlain whom are 8 years old.

Perrie's POV: So, tonight is Hannah, Christopher and Connor's primary school talent show and Hannah auditioned successfully but here's the funny thing, she hasn't even told us what her talent is.
"And now we have our final act of the evening, Hannah Oxlade-Chamberlain performing 'Secret Love Song Part 2' by Little Mix!" The school's headteacher announces, bringing a proud smile to my face as our daughter walks onto the stage and the piano intro of the song begins to play, I pull my phone out and film the performance:

We keep behind closed doors
Every time I see you, I die a little more
Stolen moments that we steal as the curtain falls
It'll never be enough
As you drive me to my house
I can't stop these silent tears from rolling down
You and I both have to hide
On the outside where I can't be yours and you
Can't be mine
But I know this
We got a love that is homeless

Why can't I hold you in the street?
Why can't I kiss you on the dance floor?
I wish that it could be like that
Why can't it be like that?
'Cause I'm yours
Why can't I say that I'm in love?
I wanna shout it from the rooftops
I wish that it could be like that
Why can't it be like that?
'Cause I'm yours

It's obvious you're meant for me
Every piece of you, it just fits perfectly
Every second, every thought, I'm in so deep
But I'll never show it on my face
But we know this, we got a love that is homeless

Why can't you hold me in the street?
Why can't I kiss you on the dance floor?
I wish that it could be like that
Why can't we be like that?
'Cause I'm yours
Why can't I say that I'm in love?
I wanna shout it from the rooftops
I wish that it could be like that
Why can't we be like that?
'Cause I'm yours

I don't wanna live love this way
I don't wanna hide us away
I wonder if it ever will change
I'm living for that day
Someday
When you hold me in the street
And you kiss me on the dance floor
I wish that we could be like that
Why can't we be like that
'Cause I'm yours, I'm yours

Oh, why can't you hold me in the street?
Why can't I kiss you on the dance floor?
I wish that it could be like that
Why can't it be like that?
'Cause I'm yours
Why can't I say that I'm in love?
I wanna shout it from the rooftops
I wish that it could be like that
Why can't we be like that?
'Cause I'm yours
Why can't we be like that
Wish we could be like that

The song ends and I can feel myself tearing up with happy tears watching her perform that song, especially since it is one of Little Mix's songs. The crowd cheers but you can definitely hear me and Alex being the most loud with their claps.
"Amazing job, princess!" Alex yells out and Hannah smiles proudly before the other competitors file onto the stage as the judges decide the winner.

A few minutes pass and the judges have made their decision, I mean after that performance, I'll be surprised if Hannah doesn't win.
"Okay, I have the winner right here in my hands so can I have everyone's attention?" The headmaster announces, holding up a envelope before he opens it up. "Our winner is.... Hannah Oxlade-Chamberlain!"

Me, Alex, Christopher and Connor cheer loudly as our daughter is handed the trophy, she proudly raises it in the air and smiles with the brightest smile that I've ever seen in my whole entire life.

Afterwards as Alex takes the boys to the car, I find Hannah leaving the stage and she runs into my arms.
"I did it, mumma! I did it!" She squeals with happines, smiling with glee at her award. "Where is daddy?"
"He's just taken Christopher and Connor to the car, they're tuckered out." I tell her, kissing her cheek. "How about we go out to your favourite restaurant to celebrate?" She squeals, happily.

I make a mental note to show the video to the other girls somewhen later...
