Well, after seeing that you guys really want me to continue this story, I will go on with it! Here's chapter three!(:
Clare
It's been three days…
Three long and torturous days.
I had just started to realize how real this all was. I was going to meet my favorite band of all time in a day; a day. It was just too good to be true.
I sighed happily before putting the envelope with the tickets and backstage passes back in my nightstand.
I had already bought my new outfit for the concert with Katie and Alli two days ago. It took us a good four hours at the mall to find the right outfits, but we found them. All three of us decided on dresses. My dress was a floral grey and black striped dress. The flowers were pink. The second I laid eyes on the dress, I just fell in love with it.
I just knew that tomorrow would be amazing…
Suddenly, my doorbell went off. My parents weren't home so I had to get the door myself. I opened the door to see Katie and Alli standing in front of me with bags full of junk food and they had overnight bags slung over their shoulders while they grinned at me.
"Pre-concert sleepover?" Alli's high pitched voice rang in my ears and I grinned back at them before letting them in.
We ended up staying up and watching movies together until one in the morning. After we talked for like a half an hour about the concert when Katie started talking about her movie.
"Well, you guys know how I got a role in my first movie, right?"
"Yeah." Me and Alli replied in unison while we waited for her to continue.
"Well, I never told you that I got the lead role…" She muttered and I almost choked on the water I was drinking while Alli was coughing to death trying to get the popcorn lodged out of her throat. After I composed myself and Alli did too, we turned to her with wide eyes.
"How come you never said anything?" I was practically screaming.
"Well, I wanted to surprise you when the movie came out, but I couldn't wait that long."
"Wow, so does the lead have a love interest?" Alli teased as she put the popcorn beside her on the coffee table.
"Uh… yes." I noticed how she avoided our eyes while smiling.
"Are we missing something here?"
"Well, this love interest of mine lives here in Toronto too and he said we should have coffee once we get settled in." I watched the blush etch across her pale face and I gasped.
"Katie Matlin has a crush!" I screeched at her and Alli giggled.
"I do not…" We both raised our eyebrows at her, "Okay, maybe a little." She muttered causing me and Alli to laugh.
"What's his name?"
"Adam."
The next day…
Eli
"You ready for this concert, Eli?" My manager Riley walked into my dressing room smiling at me.
"Ready as I'll ever be." I sighed before getting up, hearing the screaming getting louder by the minute.
"Well, get out there kid and give it your all."
"Will do." I smirked as I brushed past him and found Drew talking to… Adam?
"Eli!" Adam threw his arms around me in a hug and I hugged back before he let go and smiled at me.
"What are you doing here?"
"Shooting's over for a few weeks, so I came down to visit."
"Wow, that's awesome. We should hangout tomorrow, I missed you."
"Well, I sort of have a date…" He admitted sheepishly and I raised my eyebrows at him while I smirked.
"Really? Well, I'll let you have your date, but we're hanging out soon."
Suddenly our cue came and me and Drew called Adam off as we positioned ourselves to go out on stage with the rest of the band. We made our grand entrance and the music started right up. The words flowed from my mouth like; like a second language. Something I knew. The lyrics starting off somewhat slow, but picking up in volume and pace slightly.
I let myself reach out to the first row to touch my fans flailing arms when I saw this one girl. She was staring up at me with big blue eyes and her mouth was slightly parted as she focused on me, not throwing her hand in my face to feel my touch, but rather simply staring at me. I continued to let the words flow out of my mouth as I stared back at her. She had her hair in a messy bun and her bangs swooped down across her forehead and slightly over her right eye. She was wearing a floral dress that hugged her every curve delicately. And her make-up was underdone like none of the other girls here; only lip gloss decorated her full lips and mascara pulled out her eyelashes making them more noticeable, but also bringing out her eyes. She was beautiful…
I smirked down at her before moving back from the vicious arms reaching to me and kept singing as I felt the sweat form on my neck and forehead. The song coming to an end soon after.
Clare
My breath caught in my throat as I stared up at him and he stared back; studying me as I did to him. He was wearing a white button down with black skinny jeans and black converse. His hair fell into place perfectly so it curled at the ends. I watched him smirk down at me before backing away and singing the rest of the song.
"Oh my god…" I whispered to myself, but no one could hear me since the music was so loud over anybody's voice.
Did Elijah Goldsworthy just check me out?
Oh my god…
OH MY GOD!
OH MY JESUS CHRIST!
I bit my lip while I watched him sing around the stage; my heart fluttering at his smiling face. He was gorgeous…
After another song he had himself sitting on a stool that was placed in the middle of stage and an acoustic guitar was being supported by his leg. He looked out into the crowd and began speaking.
"I have a new song for you guys that I wrote a few days ago. It was fit into the concert last minute. I hope you like it." And then his deep voice started humming while his fingers glided across the guitar strings so delicately and with no flaws at all. He leaned forward taking a breath and started singing into the microphone.
I see your face in my mind as I drive away…
Cause none of us thought it was gonna end that way
People are people and sometimes we change our minds
But it's killing me to see you go after all this time…
Word after word flowed from his mouth in a deep angelic like voice. The melody was soft and slow and it made me want to close my eyes and sway back and forth. This song was like nothing I had ever heard before. I've never heard something so beautiful…
Suddenly the song ended and people were screaming and cheering while I still had my eyes closed in utter bliss. I felt so at peace and the second everyone roared with noise my eyes snapped open to see him watching me from the stage making me blush the slightest. I started to bite my lip as he got up and started to reach for everyone's hands in the front row and then he stopped at me and grabbed my hand that was near my shoulder and brought it to his lips, kissing it tenderly before standing up again. I gulped and breathed out before I saw Alli and Katie looking at me with wide eyes and opened mouths and then they looked at Elijah then me again before smiling. He walked off to reach out to his other fans while I stood there.
Did his lips really come in contact with my skin?
Oh lord…
Soon the concert ended and me, Alli, and Katie were heading backstage to meet the band. My stomach was exploding with butterflies. I was so nervous!
The band suddenly came into view. Elijah, Fitz, Drew, and Jake were standing there talking to the security guards. We were the next people to see them while everyone else waited to get escorted.
Their body guards walked off and they turned around to see us and smiled over at us. Well, Elijah smirked… and Jake and Fitz didn't really tilt their lips at all into a smile, but Drew did. We were suddenly standing in front of them.
"Why hello ladies." Elijah greeted us in his deep voice and I wanted to squeak pathetically, but restrained myself from doing so as I smiled at him.
"Hi." All three of us said in unison.
"I'm Alli." Alli introduced herself; mostly to Drew while Katie did too and for Elijah.
"I'm Clare." I said timidly as I held out my hand for Elijah to shake, but he kissed it like he had before and I felt the blood rush to my cheeks.
"It's nice to meet you, Clare." He replied saying my name somewhat slowly and in amusement, "You have… the most prettiest eyes I've ever seen." He murmured in amazement. I felt myself get weak in the knees. Was Elijah fucking Goldsworthy seriously flirting with me?
"Th-thanks…"
He smirked at me and somehow everyone ended up talking. The light conversation only lasted about five minutes before we had to go.
But the one thing I didn't realize was that it wouldn't be the last time that I saw Elijah Goldsworthy…
