Song and dance

Today is my final show, Leah and her teammates are coming. I can't wait to finally be home with her for a month. A whole month I get to sleep next to her, wake up to her on a morning and fall asleep with her every night.

Sound check is complete, Leah is in training right now so I can't call her like I normally do. I have breakfast and a tonne of coffee. It gets to 7pm, Leah has rung me a couple of times but I didn't have chance to ring her back.
I'm ringing her now.
Leah: "hey baby, we are on our way."
Molly: "okay, TJ is going to meet you at the entrance"
Leah: "what for?"
Molly: "you think I'm not gonna let you come backstage? No way you're watching with the fans."
Leah: "I can't leave my friends."
Molly: "oh baby, they are all coming too."
Leah: "really?"
Molly: "really."
Leah: "I love you."
Molly: "I love you too, see you soon."

I get my hair and makeup done, Leah texts me saying she's here and backstage.
Molly: "jason can you go get Leah for me?"
Jason: "of course."
Molly: "thank you."
Jason leaves to get Leah. I get changed into my outfit and start pacing.
Leah walks in.
Leah: "h-hey wow you look incredible."
Molly: "why am i nervous?"
Leah: "huh?"
Molly: "I don't get nervous, I never get nervous so why am i nervous?"
Leah: "I don't know baby, but hey, it's okay, I'm here. Stop rambling."
Molly: "I can't help it Leah, I can't relax, I'm so fucking nervo-"
I feel Leah's lips on mine, she knows exactly what I need.
Leah: "calm down. Everything's going to be okay."
Molly: "promise?"
Leah: "I promise. I'm going to be right there with you. Singing along to every word."
Molly: "okay."
Leah: "okay, now go out there, sign off this tour and you'll have a surprise waiting for you after."
Molly: "a surprise?"
Leah: "yes, now go, I love you."
Molly: "I love you."
She kisses me and walks out of my dressing room.
I psych myself up and head out onto the stage. I'm so ready for this.

Leah's POV:
I walk back to the Arsenal girls.
Beth: "this is so cool!"
Steph: "it is!"
Katie: "she alright?"
Leah: "she's nervous, she never gets nervous but she's okay, she'll be alright once she gets on stage."

"O2 are you ready?!"
I hear her over the microphone. The crowd screams, it's sold out, she's ready now.
She starts with one of my favourite songs. She's so natural on stage, the girls are singing but I'm just watching my girl sing her heart out. She looks so perfect.

She sings all of the crowd pleasers then moves onto the slower songs. The slow ones that we have danced to in the kitchen together after not seeing her in months or the songs where we listened to them for the first time together in our bedroom.

Molly: "right the next one, it's going to make me soppy. But my girlfriend is here tonight"
Everyone cheers.
I smile at her as she looks over at me.
Molly: "so baby, this one, is for you."

She sits on a stool and gets her guitar.

You'll always be my number one
A whole lot more than good enough
I'm giving everything I've got to gain every second lost
Six years just ain't enough
With you, I'm happy being me
Don't pretend cause I don't need to
I'm a thousand miles from home, never on my own
When you whisper down the phone
Well, I guess we never saw this coming
Halfway around the world calling
But I just want you to know

That id have all I need
If you were standing right in front of me
I'll finally see what it means to be complete
Don't need to spend our lives chasing gold
Anywhere with you, I'll call my home
Oh, I'd have all I need
If you'd be the better half of me.

I'm still up it's 4 am
Is that Amsterdam or Berlin?
Yeah, I'm just waiting for the day I finally get to say
These words face to face.
Well, I guess we never saw this coming
Halfway round the world calling
But I just want you to know
