Chapter 1:
Jessica's POV:
I was sitting comfortably at a leather couch as I tried to look back at everything that happened. It has been an absolutely crazy year for me. Never in my sixteen years of existence did I expect to be in this position. I was runner up and it felt good. I may not have won the title of American Idol but I did get through the top 2. Plus, I got to spend time with the greatest people in the planet. I looked around me and smiled to myself. This was the best time of my life.
"Hey there skinny me. What are you doin' there sitting all alone?" I heard Colton say as he sat right next to me. I don't know why but I suddenly get this tingly feeling every time I get close to Colton. I mean I love him but only as a friend and just a friend. Well, at least that's what I thought it was.
"I'm still overwhelmed. I mean, it's just crazy. Just crazy." I told him. He smiled at me and put his arm around my shoulders. I thanked God that it was dim here at the Idol mansion because my cheeks were on fire.
"I know." Colton sucked in a deep breath and spoke again. "Hey, you know you still won for me, right?" he asked as he stared into my eyes. I couldn't help but be mesmerized. His soft warm eyes staring into mine. It was like being in heaven. I wished that we could stay like this forever. "Jess? Hello?" I snapped back in reality as Colton waved his hand in front of my face. I felt so embarrassed.
"Oh. Uh. Yeah." I said blankly. My cheeks were burning up like hell and it felt so awkward.
"I think you're tired. Come on. Let's get you to bed." Colton smiled at me. He was right. I was tired. I felt like I was made up of lead and I desperately needed sleep. But even though I did, I didn't want to sleep just yet.
"Noooooo! I want to stay here. Everybody's having fun and I don't wanna miss it." I whined as I stood up. We held a party in the Idol mansion for Phillip that day. Of course, Shannon did all the preparing. She was like the planner or something. You have to give her credit though, it was an amazing party.
"Okay. Okay. Then let's go inside. It's getting drifty out here." Colton said as he stood up and lead me inside. When we got inside, everyone was all crazy and having fun. Phillip was with Elise and his girlfriend Hannah. Colton and I could see that Elise was not that comfortable talking to Phillip with his girlfriend so we decided to go to her rescue.
"Hey guys! You all having fun?" I asked as me and Colton stepped closer to the three.
"Yeah. This is a rocking party." Hannah complimented and looked at Phillip who immediately gave her a peck on the lips. Elise let out a fake cough.
"Sorry." Phillip said looking down on the ground.
"Hey, you mind? I... uhh... need to go somewhere." Elise said and stormed out.
"What's her problem?" Hannah asked and we all shrugged.
"I'll go talk to her." Colton said as the rest of us nodded. We watched Colton leave before we started talking again.
"So… Congrats, Phil! You won!" I said as I hit Phillip on his arm playfully.
"Thanks. Hey, you won too." Phillip said as he patted me on the head.
"I thought you were great. To be honest, if Phillip wasn't my boyfriend I would have voted for you." Hannah joked. I chuckled.
"Really?" Phillip said dramatically.
"Maybe…" Hannah said as they started making out in front of me.
"Okaaaaay. I'm just gonna go." I said as I left the two. I understand why they were all kissy and stuff. They haven't seen each other for a while. I'm pretty sure they must've missed each other. I went to hang with Heejun and Deandre who was talking with Skylar and Shannon. "Hey guys!" I greeted them sitting beside Heejun.
"Hey, Jess! So how are you holding up?" Heejun asked.
"I'm good. A little overwhelmed. This is such a great party!" I said looking at Shannon who was very much flattered.
"Thanks. I couldn't have done it without you guys. I mean you guys helped a lot. So, thanks." Shannon said as she held her cup up high.
"I can't wait for the tour!" Skylar said excitedly.
"I know. I can't too. How long do we have left? A couple of weeks?" Deandre said.
"Yeah. So what do you plan on doing on tour?" Heejun asked me.
"Well, me and Colton were planning to do a duet…" I saw them roll their eyes and smiled maliciously at me. "What?" I asked in confusion.
"Oh, nothing… Just that we know you like Colton and all." Deandre said as the others nodded in agreement. I was full in denial mode.
"Me? No. No. No. No. No. I like Colton as a friend. That's all." I said firmly as they all shook their heads and laughed.
"Sweetie, we all know. No need to be in denial." Shannon said as she put her hand on my knee.
"I'm not in denial." I said as I started to blush and it wasn't long before Heejun noticed.
"Are you blushing? Oh my God, you are blushing!" Heejun said as he poked my cheek.
"Stop it!" I said as I took Heejun's hands off me. "I don't like Colton, okay?" I shouted as I stood up. Then suddenly all eyes were on me. I stood there awkwardly for a second. "I… I need to get some sleep." I said as I ran towards the stairs only to see Colton and Elise with their lips locked and my heart crashing into little pieces.
