DISCLAIMER: I don't own NBCTheVoice and I most certainly don't own the people in the show like judges and the host. However I own some original characters that you'll get to know them one by one.
I'm about 2 update again! Cause I just looooooooove ya'll!
Thank you soooo much for the comments, faves and the follows. They just made my day...
Thanks to 'M' and 'me' for their support and also thanks to Falling Hard Angel. Kisses for all of you!
Now, let's get to it:
Chapter14_This Love….
_So basically this is what I wanted to do. Anyone has any questions?
I ask my dance crew for the live shows. We've been working on the Genie dance moves for the last hour. They're all pretty tired but I have to get it right. I have to earn Adam's trust. Speaking of the devil….
_Hey guys!
I turn around and I see Adam standing in the door with none other than Blake Shelton! What are they doing in the dance department?! I move closer to them and try to greet them properly:
_Hey Adam! Blake! What are you doing here?
Blake says quickly:
_Adam just told me you were doing Christina's song and well, I wanted to see you dance!
Adam laughs softly and I start laughing too. Blake gives us a weird look and asks:
_What?
Adam shakes his head but doesn't say a word so I turn to Blake and say:
_Sorry but the dance practice is over! Seems like you have to wait for the live shows, sir!
Blake rolls his eyes and swears:
_Damn it! (In his own cute way!)
Adam's still laughing and it's melting my heart but I continue:
_I promise you if I get through the live shows I'll dance for you… with Hillbilly Bone!
Adam's not laughing now. He's staring at me with his eyes wide. Blake seems excited and says:
_You promised me girl! I gotta tell Miranda later…
He mumbles and leaves Adam and me alone at the door. I say weakly:
_You wanna come in? Maybe learn something?!
Adam raises his eyebrows and says:
_Oh really?! Don't you know, I got the moves like Jagger!
I laugh the comment off and say:
_Sure you do!
Adam shakes his head slowly and then asks:
_You really wanna dance with Hillbilly for Blake?
I lean more into door and say casually:
_Yeah, why not?
He shrugs and says:
_It's just… I don't know! Can I see it too?
I grin and hit him on the shoulder playfully:
_Of course!
He catches my hand in the air and then it's the awkward silence between us and nothing more. One of the girls calls my name and then I pull my hand away from his. I answer her with a quick 'yeah, I'll be there in a sec' while I'm looking into Adam's mesmerizing eyes.
I gulp when I notice he's staring into my eyes too. I take a deep breath and take a step backward. I say rather quickly:
_I gotta go. See you tomorrow.
I turn around and get back in the room. I guess I blushed earlier cause my face feels like it was on fire. I get back to the crew and tell them they're off to go for the next practice. I take my bags and leave but Adam's nowhere in sight…

_So how's everything going with Genie?
Kat asks me but I'm too busy staring at Adam talking on the phone quietly. I feel like he's having a fight. Kat stands right in front of me and then I notice her. I say automatically:
_Sorry K, I was thinking…
_About Adam?
I answer faster than I could ever imagine:
_Adam?
She shrugs and says:
_Well, you were looking at his direction so…
I interrupt her rudely:
_Who said that? I was just thinking about my performance.
She looks away hurt and I come to my senses:
_Sorry Kat, I'm just… Sorry, forgive me?
She nods and smiles weakly but then she asks:
_How was yesterday's dance practice?
I eagerly answer:
_It was great! They're all professionals so I had no problem at all!
_Amazing! Well, I don't have dance crew issues so I only need to worry about my own voice.
I smile and try to make her feel calm:
_You have a gorgeous voice so don't worry, alright?
She nods and goes to talk to other girls around. I start staring at Adam freely now. He's still at the phone but this time he looks hurt. I don't know what to do. It's not really my business but I don't wanna see him hurt or sad either.
I see him hanging the phone upset but before I can move an inch his head turns around and then he sees me. He sees me staring at him while he stares back. I gulp hardly but I can't take my eyes off him. Finally he looks the other way and takes off.
I can't stop my feet, they're already following him. I run my hand through my hair to calm my nerves but it's not working as usual. I see him entering the practice room. I'm sure it's empty so I move right next to it and knock slowly.
I hear his weak voice say 'yes?' so I answer back:
_It's me. Can I come in?
He doesn't answer me; instead he opens the door himself. His face looks awfully tired and I see the sorrow deep in his eyes. I let out hardly:
_Can I talk to you? I… You…
He moves so I can come in. I do that and he closes the door behind me. I don't know what to say. I feel like this wasn't a good idea. Suddenly we both hear his voice coming from my phone:
I was so high I did not recognize
The fire burning in her eyes
The chaos that controlled my mind
Whispered goodbye as she got on a plane
Never to return again
But always in my heart
It's my alarm and yes I have "This Love" as my alarm song. Adam's looking at me waiting for an explanation. I turn the alarm off and mumble:
_Stupid alarm!
Adam tries to make a joke:
_Well, the song didn't sound stupid to me!
I smile but before I can say a word he continues:
_Can you put the song on? I actually miss it and I'm really in a 'This Love' mood now…
_Sure…
I put the song on and I hear him whisper along his own voice:
I was so high I did not recognize
The fire burning in her eyes
The chaos that controlled my mind
Whispered goodbye as she got on a plane
Never to return again
But always in my heart
I sing along with him quietly while I sit on the coach's chair:
Oh, this love has taken its toll on me
She said goodbye too many times before
And her heart is breakin' in front of me
And I have no choice, 'cause I won't say goodbye anymore
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Before we can get to the second verse his phone rings. I turn the volume down so he can speak. I know he's hesitating to pick up so I say:
_You want me to leave?
Shockingly he shakes his head as a 'no' so I stay still while he answers his phone with a simple 'yeah?'. Suddenly I hear him half shout:
_Just stop this crap. I'm sick of it. No! You listen…
She obviously interrupts him but Adam continues:
_Do whatever you like, no one's stopping you!
I shift uncomfortably on the chair. I run my hand through my hair a couple of times nervously. Adam finally hangs up with a 'I can't believe you…' and then turns back to face me. I know my mouth is half open but I don't try to close it.
He steps closer and apparently turns his phone off. He tries to apologize for the little fight he just had with his girlfriend:
_I'm sorry Star… It's just been so crazy and…
I stand up and move closer to him without knowing why. I whisper:
_It's alright, I know exactly what you mean…
He nods and then does the one thing I didn't see coming. He kisses my cheek slowly and whispers a quick 'thanks' and then he's out the door…
I put my hand on my right cheek and feel the warmth of his lips. I can't believe it! It's the freaking second time he kissed my cheek…
I run my hand through my hair and this time I feel hell of a lot calmer. God, I think I'm in love…
Sooooo! What did you think?!
Love,
S
