Please Be Mine [Watty Awards 2012]

Epilogue

LOUIS’ P.O.V

 Shut the door,

 Turn the light off,

 I want to be with you,

 I want to feel you love,

 I want to lay beside you,

 I cannot hide this,

 Even though I try.

  Liam’s soft voice echoed throughout the recording studio. I gulped. This was the fifth time we had tried to record this, and every time I broke down in tears. I had written this six months ago, all by myself.

 We requested that no-one was present when we recorded this. No audio checks, or fiddling with buttons while we sang. We had to be alone.

  Heart beats harder,

 Time escapes me,

 Trembling hands, touch skin,

It makes this harder.

  I had written this song for a reason.

  My beautiful girlfriend has passed away exactly a year ago, today.

 And the tears stream,

 Down my face.

 Five months after that magical night at the park, she had been diagnosed with lung cancer. But she chose not to tell us, and spent the remaining 7 months with me, in total happiness.

 If we could only have this life,

 For one more day,

 If we could only turn back time.

 Harry’s voice cracked slightly as he finished his solo. I wonder what he has been through, he loved Simone as much as I did. Liam had a tear slowly winding it’s way down his cheek.

  You know I’ll be,

You’re life,

 You’re voice,

You’re reason to be,

 My love,

My heart,

 Is breathing for this,

Moment,

In time,

I’ll find the words to say,

 Before you leave me today.

 She couldn’t bear to see me suffer. She chose to carry her secret with her. She carried it to her death.

 Close the door,

 Throw the key,

Don’t want to be reminded,

Don’t want to be seen.

 Niall’s angelic voice rang through the studio.
