Author's note: I don't own the characters/people appearing in this story. Peta doesn't exist in real life but I got inspired by Peta Murgatroyd and James exist in the television series Big Time Rush as James Diamond, and this story is just my imagination. So yeah, don't own these two.
'On this final week of competition, the couple with the lowest combined total judges scores and viewer votes, therefore leaving right now is...
James and Peta.'
I turned around in his arms and hugged James, trying to fake a smile. He seemed to do the same and I felt that he was really upset. We let go but still kept our arms around each other and went down to the hosts.
'So close, put it into words James.', she said and James answered her, him being upset barely being audible:
'It's alright. I've really had an amazing experience on the show. I've enjoyed it more than ever thought possible. I've made some amazing friends and I'm just grateful for the opportunity. It's been a lot of fun.'
'How are you doing?', the other host now asked me.
'I'm so blessed to have him as a partner this season and I couldn't ask for anything more from him. He was absolutely amazing. I really love hi..-dancing with him. Thank you so much!'
They played the little video they put together and of course they had to put me in there saying that we might date when the show is over. I tried to smile it off and James did the same. As soon as everyone wasn't paying so much attention on us, James pulled me unobviously over to a place less crowded.
'I really love him?'
'I said I really love dancing with him.'
'Even a deaf would have noticed it!'
'I'm sorry ok?! I slipped, I tried to cover it up ok?!'
'It was really a bad cover up.'
'I know ok? But with us being eliminated, I was really upset and realizing that we wouldn't be seeing each other every day gave me the rest. I was looking for something positive and I'm really sorry for slipping.', I tried to explain myself looking everywhere but at James.
'Peta, Peta..?', he said, sounding like he had tried to cut me off for awhile.
'What?', I asked finally looking at him.
He put his arms around my waist and pulled me closer.
'I just said it was a really bad cover up! I'm not saying that I'm not upset about the same things and that I don't feel the same! So...do you want to finally be my girlfriend?'
'I do.', I said smiling and James closed the gap between us kissing me.
It didn't matter that we still were on TV, all that mattered was him. I pulled away and saw Kendall, Logan and Dustin coming over.
'Your friends.', I whispered and he turned around, keeping his arms around me.
'Well that was unexpected and we are very happy you told us that you love her.'
'Yeah it's amazing to know something like this before you tell everyone on nationwide TV.'
'Boys! Calm down please. I couldn't know that would be happening.'
'Oh we didn't expect you to know, we just wanted to know what you feel for her.'
'Guys I'm sorry ok, can we now get this part over?'
'Yes.', they said at the same time and smiled widely.
'Good.'
'So you guys know your mikes were on the whole time and everyone could hear every word you two said?!', Logan informed us and we looked at each other in total shock. Well I was shocked, James didn't seem to mind.
'Good, I want everyone to know what a beautiful girlfriend I have!'
'But why did nobody stop talking then?'
'They did, nobody except you guys said anything.'
'Why didn't we notice that?', James asked irritated.
'You were so focused on each other, you didn't notice anything at all.'
'It was really cute. Congrats Big Brother!', Ciara (Bravo), who just came over to join us, said.
'Thanks girl.', he answered and hugged her shortly.
'We are off btw., just FYI, if you want to go backstage. It seems like you don't need us so we'll go home but call us tomorrow!'
'Will do guys. Thanks for coming and if you talk to Los tell him that I would have loved having him here!'
'Will do. Bye'
We all hugged each other goodbye and James and I went backstage, where Sharna came over and hugged me. That's when I remembered that we got eliminated. I immediately was upset again and was happy I didn't have to fake a smile anymore.
