night time talks

Carrie's pov





Carrie stood outside the bus that would be her home from the next few weeks, she watched her management and the rest of her entourage piling onto the second bus behind her.



'Hey there.......'Carrie turned to see one of her assistants standing closely behind her.



'Hey.......'



'So im with you then?.......'Carrie could almost hear Kelly's head explode somewhere.



'Actually no.....your with everyone else........this is my bus.......'



'But I hear Kelly isnt here.......who's going to keep you company.......' Amy smiled sweetly.



'Me.......'Jason stood behind Amy with his bags over his shoulders.



'Your brother in law?......'Amy ignored Jason completely.



'Kelly can't make it so Jason's coming........'



'Weird.....'Amy walked away.



'My sister hates her......'Jason pointed out.



'I know.....'



'And she's on tour.......'



'She's part of the management team......i can't really fire her.......'



'Just keep as far away from her as you can.......'Jason patted Carrie's shoulder as he climbed on the bus.



Carrie looked around the empty carpark for any sign of Kelly. She had hoped her wife would make a surprise visit, even if it was just to say goodbye.





Kelly's pov





Kelly stood with her hands above her eyes as she tried her hardest to see.



'This is the worst idea ever.......it's like we're sixteen again and settling for the worst seats..........your famous for a reason.....'Ashley threw herself back against the chair.



'It's fun....we can see perfectly.......'



'We are in the back row Kelly.....any further back and we would be sitting out in the car park.........You couldn't get better seats......'Kelly shook her head. 'You couldn't get better seats at your wife's own concert?......'



'Not without her knowing......'Kelly sighed. She knew her best friend was right. She knew it was weird to be standing in an empty concert hall waiting for her wife to appear.



'It's like we're stalkers......we're stalking your wife......and ive left my baby alone with your mother.....'



'Yea that was wrong.....'Kelly agreed.



'He's going to be brain washed by the time I get back........'



'Hey I spent my childhood with that woman.......'



'And how long did it take me to get you back to normal?.......'Ashley dodged her best friends hand.



'How are we going to make sure the fans dont see us?.......'



'Even if they think it's you they won't believe it's you........'



'And why not?.....'



'The seats we're in.....'Ashley suggested.







Carrie's pov





Carrie lifted her head from the bed she was in as the bus came to a stop. Looking out the window she realised they were at the concert hall. The fan noise was all she could hear as the bus door opened.



'Alright lets get this thing going.......sound check....then dinner......'Carrie followed her manager out of the bus as Jason followed.



'So dinner?......'



'Sound check first jason......'Carrie smiled at her brother in laws face.



'I don't need to be at sound check.....so dinner?.....'



'Go on.........' Jason left a quick kiss on Carrie's head before jumping from the bus





Kelly's pov





'The bands here........'Ashley shook Kelly arm.



'Sound check.....'Kelly said quietly. She watched as Carrie followed the band on stage, her head down as she looked over the paper in her hand. 'She looks beautiful....'Kelly breathed out.



'She looks like an ant from here.......'Ashley screwed her eyes as she tried to see.



The band soon began to play around, mixed music filling the hall. Kelly kept her eyes on the blond in the middle of the stage. It felt weird watching her wife as she talked to the band. She felt like she was spying on her, in a way she was. As she moved to the front of the stage Kelly slid back against the seat. She watched Carrie tap the mic before blowing into it.



'Alright guys lets try this one first.......' Carrie's voice filled the hall.



'Least we can hear her.....'Ashley whispered.



'Shhh..'Kelly kept her eyes on her wife as the music began. She recognised it right away.



'Is that yours?.....'



'Yea......' Kelly watched Carrie throw the paper on the ground as she began to sing.





Far away from it all

You and me with no one else around

A brand new start is all we need

It's all we need to mend these hearts

Back to the beginning



Kelly's heart stopped as she heard the song her wife had picked.



Be still, let it go



Before we lost hope

When we still touched

And love wasn't so hard



Kelly couldn't believe how the lyrics fit her feeling so much at that moment. Even though she had wrote the song long before her marriage to Carrie started to go wrong. The song seemed to fit them so well at the moment.



Be still, I already know



Foolish one with a smile

You don't have to be brave

Every time we fall down

But we are falling from grace

I'll gladly climb your walls

If you'll meet me half way



Kelly found herself mouthing along with the lyrics .



Slow,slow it down

Why do we run?

We're missing so much babe

Just lay in my arms from a while



Wiping the tears from her eyes Kelly lead forward so Ashley wouldn't see her.



Be still we should have know



Foolish one with a smile

You don't have to be brave

I'll gladly climb your walls

If you meet me halfway

Every time we fall down

But we're falling from grace



Here's my hand and my heart

It's yours to take



Kelly let out a sob as she covered her mouth.



Be still Be still now

Be still be still be still





As the music stopped Carrie moved away from the mic, Kelly could see her wiping away her own tears that must have formed.



'You ok?.......'Kelly felt Ashley's hand rub her back.



'Yea.....' Kelly stood as Carrie left the stage.



'Want to leave now?.......'Ashley stood collecting their things.



'No....'Kelly wiped her face again.



'What do you want?.....'



'My wife......' Kelly moved towards the back, she needed to be backstage. She needed to be with her wife.





Carrie's pov



'That's just the best thing ive every seen.......'Amy came running up to Carrie holding out a water bottle.



'Thanks but that's just sound check.....im hoping tonight will be better.......'



'Oh it will....'Amy gushed. 'that's the best ive every heard that song........' Carrie stopped to turn to her.



'That's my wife's song.......she's pretty good at it too......'



'Yea....im not really a fan of Kelly's.......i like you better.......' Carrie shook her head in disbelief..



'Can you go ask security to make sure the front rows al right tonight......'Carrie wanted the little blond away from her now.



'Sure......'Carrie watched the blond skip away .





Kelly's pov





'So we are sneaking into her dressing room?....'Ashley quizzed.



'Once we get by security......' Kelly made her way towards the stage door,



'Jason's going to hate me when he finds out his son is with your mother......'



'He'll get over it......'Kelly turned the corner seeing two security guards at the door.



'Can we help you?.......'



'Yea listen....I want to see my wife.....'



'And who's your wife?.......'The tall man asked.



'Carrie Underwood......' Kelly looked up hearing the two men beginning to laugh. 'No seriously.....'



'Im sure you are .....but I can't let you back here........'



'No I am....look......'Kelly pulled her hat off. 'see ....im kelly....'



'And im Bruce Willis.......now please......we need to keep this door clear.......'



'Look she's not joking she is Kelly Clarkson .......'Ashley pushed Kelly in front of her. Kelly eyes light up as she saw Amy walking towards the door.



'She knows me....Amy....'



'You know this woman?....'The security man stood aside.



'Nope....'Amy shrugged.



'You little......'Kelly felt herself being pulled back by Ashley.



'She says she's Carrie's wife.......'



'No.....'Amy came forward.. ' Kelly's back home.......' Amy shrugged.



'Sorry girls im going to have to close this door now......' Kelly watched speechless as the steel door closed in front of her.



'That little......'
