Now let's skip forward a few weeks later. It's the night before an award show. I'm not nomiated for any awards but EXO is. I couldn't be happier for them. But for myself, I have to do a performance for my latest single.

Yixing and the rest of EXO-M were leaving the day after the awards show. They had to go back to China for another week or so. 

Tonight, I have to practice all night so that I can have the greatest performance I have ever had. I didn't stop dancing and singing. Pushing myself to the limit. It was hard but I knew I have to do this. Show my parents that it was the right choice to move to Korea. That was the doubt always in the back of my mind. Were my parents proud of me? I haven't talk to them in months. I have been so busy that I barely have time to call them or email them.

"Taylor..." I hated the way Yixing said my name that way. He sounded so worried and concerned.  I laid out on the couch when he walked into my practice room.

"I kn- I know..." I breathed out, too tired to care. 

I turned my head to face him as he walked over to me.  He too looked exhausted but he still kept that smile on his face.

He sat down next to me and put his arm around me to pull me closer. I rested my head against his chest.

"Don't push yourself." he told me softly. I could fall asleep like this and stay in his arms for a thousand years. 

"Maybe you listen to yourself as well. You need to rest." I replied to him wrapping one of my arms around his chest, "When are you finished practicing?"

"I just finished. I just wanted to make sure that you were alright. You haven't been looking too well lately."

"I'm fine. Just a lot more tired. It's been really busy." I sighed, closing my eyes, "Yixing...?"

"Yes love..?"

"Do you think you can spend the night with me?"

"Of course but I'll have to wake up early so that I can get ready for the awards show."

"Thank you. I love you."
