Never Alone

I decided there needed to be more Kelstavo fics! So I wrote one :D I hope ppl like it. Also a hint of Jarlos! :D

Kelly's POV

He called a break for the four boys. And I called out for a pizza. As it arrived they stormed me and soon they had the box open on the floor outside Gustavo's office. I walked over to a vacant couch and layed across it. I pulled my i-pod out and stuck in the ear buds. Hitting play the song started at the spot I had paused it earlier that morning. Humming along, I sat and watched the four boys sit and eat the pizza I ordered.

"I say can you believe it
As we're lying on the couch
The moment I could see it
Yes, yes, I can see it now

Do you remember we were sitting there by the water
You put your arm around me for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine"

"KELLY!" My boss, Gustavo yelled loudly from his office. I pulled out an ear bud and paused my song.

"Yes?" I asked walking into his office.

"Did you file that paperwork?"

"Yes Gustavo." I sighed deeply.

"Oh I'm sorry, am I inconveniencing you?" He asked standing.

"No." I said more attentive.

"What is it you're listening to?" He asked grabbing a ear bud. I bent over his desk.

"Just a song." I hit play and the song continued.

"Flash forward and we're taking on the world together
And there's a drawer of my things at your place
You learn my secrets and you figure out why I'm guarded
You say we'll never make my parents' mistakes

But we got bills to pay
We got nothing figured out
When it was hard to take
Yes, yes, this is what I thought about"

"It's my favorite song." I told him pausing it.

"It's okay." He said pulling the ear bud from his ear. I looked up at my boss. Glancing down, his eyes locked with mine. And we shared a moment. A moment where everything else melted away and we were the only ones there.

"Gustavo..." I whispered. He opened his mouth to say something, then shook his head.

"Well I have to get the dogs back in the booth." He stood abruptly.

I stood and sighed. 'He won't ever realize.' I thought to myself and followed him to the recording booth.

As the boys started to sing their new song, Nothing Even Matters, my gaze fell over to Gustavo. Who was sitting there with a hard look on his face as he listened to the boys' singing.

"That was okay... but I need you to... oh I don't know... GET BETTER!" He yelled loudly into the mic, causing feedback.

"AH!" The four guys ripped their headphones off their heads, and fell to the floor. I grimaced at the loud sound as they rolled on the ground, covering their ears.

"Go home dogs." He said. Logan and Kendall stood and ran out quickly. James stood and ran a hand over his hair.

"I'm tangled..." Carlos giggled, from the floor, as he pulled at the mic cord.

"Let me help." James laughed and kneeled down to help the boy.

"Thanks." Carlos blushed and lifted a foot.

I watched from my chair as the two flirted back and forth and frankly I felt jealous. Jealous that they could just be so open with their own emotions towards each other.

"Kelly. You coming?" Gustavo asked, from the doorway.

"Y..Yeah." I stood, noticing that James and Carlos had already left and I was just sitting there. I gathered my things and we left Rocque Studios and walked over to his parked limo.

"Need a ride home?" My boss offered.

"Frankly... I don't wanna go home." I stated as we climbed into the limo.

"Why?" He asked as the atmosphere of the limo changed from tired and stress to concern and care.

"If I tell you, you'll just think it's dumb or silly. Or both..." I sighed and looked out my window at the lights of LA.

"Try me." He said placing a hand on mine.

"I'm tired of going home to an empty apartment." I turned to look at him. "I'm tired of what we do, just to be home alone."

"Wait, of what we do? I'm confused." He said gripping my hand tighter. "Kelly. What is it that we do?"

"Gustavo..." I whispered and leaned closer to him. "I love you."

"What? Really?" He sat back shocked.

"See! You are so... so...oblivious!" I said, pulling my hand away and turning back to my window. "I've worked with you for 6 years now! I've loved you for 5 of those 6 years!" I turned to him. "When will you notice the playful shoves, the glances from across the room. You give me the nice things, the new watch every year, the beautiful bracelets, the lovely dresses. I'm tired of the things you give me. I just want you to tell me you love me. Tell me I don't have to go home alone anymore! I just want you to love me back." I said, tears escaping down my cheeks.

"Kelly. I give you those things as a sign of my love. I'm no good with words… and I'm not the best at showing how much I love you." He said. "I always noticed the glances, the shoves, the times you have stayed with me even though I yell. The lingering touch on my arm, or shoulder. I noticed." He took my hands in his. I shifted in my seat and my i-pod turned on, the music blaring through the ear buds.

"Do you remember we were sitting there by the water?
You put your arm around me for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine"

I grabbed the ear bud and placed one in my ear and the other in Gustavo's hand. He placed it in his ear as the song continued.

"Do you remember all the city lights on the water
You saw me start to believe for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine

And I remember that fight, 2:30 a.m.
As everything was slipping right out of our hands
I ran out crying and you followed me out into the street

Braced myself for the goodbye
'Cause that's all I've ever known
Then you took me by surprise
You said I'll never leave you alone

You said I remember how we felt sitting by the water
And every time I look at you, it's like the first time
I fell in love with a careless man's careful daughter
She is the best thing that's ever been mine

Hold on, we'll make it last
Hold on, never turn back
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine

Do you believe it
We're gonna make it now
I can see it
I can see it now"

As the song ended I looked up at my boss, who had been listening to the song, taking in all the words. The words that seemed to have meaning to our lives.

"This song describes the life we share." I told him, turning off my i-pod.

"Yeah... it does." He said pulling the ear bud out. "Kelly. I'm not sure how you will react, I'm not sure how you will answer. But I'm just gonna go for it, because I love you." He reached into his jacket pocket.

"Gustavo?" I looked at the man I cared for so much.

"This... I bought this on your birthday. It was just gonna be a present. But then Kendall saw it. And told me to use it for something a little more special." He said, pulling out a tiny black box. "So I'll use it now." He opened it and revealed a small diamond ring. "I want you to become my wife. So you won't have to be alone. Not ever again. Marry me Kelly?"

I sat there with my mouth sitting open, looking from the dazzling ring to Gustavo. I must have nodded without my noticing because a smile spread across his face.

"Y... yes... I'll marry you Gustavo." I nodded more noticeable and he removed the ring from its box and placed it on my finger.

I hugged my new fiancé and he took my face in his hands. "Come home with me. I don't want you to be alone." He whispered.

I nodded and wrapped my arms around his neck.

I never had to be alone.
