Missing Song (Nelena) | Book 1

17: The After-Party - Part 3 ?

"Hey bro- I'm performing with her-" The guy was a little star-struck, asked me for my autograph and I gave him one. He plugged my guitar into the amplifier and it was ready. 

I heard her sing beautifully and remembered the time I was super mean to her. I don't think she'd be able to see me up there singing with her.

As soon as she hit the bridge to the song- I hopped up the steps, Aleen pushing my back. She definitely stopped singing! I literally saw her stop singing. Her eyes were wide with shock and surprise. I smiled at her as I played, ushering her to continue the song.

Selena

I was having such a great time- it was the bridge coming up next. I heard the crowd gasp and I turned around, still singing. But I stopped, making the music turn up louder and louder. It was Nick. What the hell is he doing!?

He gave me a small smile, probably trying to get me to sing again. I grabbed the mic-stand and walked over to him- and placed the stand right in front of him, making him slightly lean back- "Nick Jonas everybody!" I wanted this to look totally opaque! I can't let them know I was being surprised.

He sang into the microphone with the beat of the song, and when the bridge ended we went back to the chorus, both singing into the mic. I could feel Nick's hot breath singing into the mic. His breath was minty, yet hot. 

We ended the song and I kissed him on the cheek. And that's when I realized that the whole audience stood up and clapped. I saw Taylor cheer- Camilla was jumping up and down in her seat- so was Demi. The confetti fell upon my head and I could see Nick's hands swatting in the air, trying to get rid of the confetti from his hair. 

I asked for the silly strings from some maintenance guy and I sprayed it at him. He gave me a dirty look and jumped at me. I was saved by the guitar that was hanging from his shoulder- I giggled and sprayed some more on his hair.

The song ended with Nick, filled with silly strings, top to bottom.

I smiled and went backstage, Nick waving at the audience and some fans followed me after.

It was the happiest day of the week- well apart from the time he took me on a little lunch date.

"Whoo-hoo! That was an amazing performance!" said Aleen's voice, yet I don't really know where he is... Ah- there he is. He was wearing a top hat and a nice suit. 

It's what managers wear.

I saw Nick stand in the corner, giving me a small smile. He looked sad, scared, and a little angry. Did I do something wrong? 

I walked over to him- and gave him a surprise hug. He hugged me back, it felt so nice to back in his arms... safe again. I mean- not like I wasn't safe... but I still remember when I was attacked by Justin and he came to my rescue...

"Sel?" said Nick, trying to pull back. I realized he had been trying to get me off him for the past 30 seconds. "Oh- sorry," I said, pulling back and dusting off my dress. He gave me his one BILLION dollar smile and replied, "Nah- I kinda liked it." 

"WHAT!?" I said, teasing him. "Why'd you try to pull back then?" He scratched his neck awkwardly- "Well... I just- didn't think you'd like me again. You know- after I said all those mean things to you..."

"Nicholas-" I said, taking his hands. "I forgive you. I now know why you didn't want to... get back to me. You tried to surprise me, mister!" I punched him in the arm, playfully. Making him exhale loudly.

"Sorry- that was rude," I laughed as he scratched his neck.

Nick

I cleaned myself up (From the confetti and silly strings that were stuck in my over-gelled hair) and met Selena outside- she changed back into a prett- okay, it was HOT. The way the dress fit her perfectly, her edges and curves. Her hair was tied in a messy, but cute, bun- making a few curly strings of hair fall down her ears.

"Are you checking me out?" Selena said, unexpectedly, making me fall out of my trance-

"Oh- no, of course, I wasn't-" I said, scratching the back of my neck. Nope, she wasn't getting it- "Okay, I was checking you out-but you look gre- hot." I said, making her blush and look down.

Me and Selena made our way back to the crowd after the three-hour show was done. We wanted to go to the after-party. I felt like partying. I held Selena's hand in mine as we walked out, paparazzi flashing cameras.

"I didn't think they'd allow paparazzi in the stadium," I said, out loud. She laughed and bumped her hips to mine- "This isn't IN the stadium- this is the parking lot, Nick!" I laughed and she joined me.

We joined Joe and Taylor as they both teased us. Well- Joe teased us and Taylor just started talking with Selena.

I felt Joe punch me in the arm- "So, my plan worked after all. You can thank me later!" I laughed, "Wow- I'm so glad I didn't take you on that stage with me. The weird brother-band the JoBros crashing the amazing, wonderful, pretty... Selena Gomez's performance! I can already see the headlines!" 

Joe and I laughed at my joke, it was true. If we went out there and crashed Sel's performance, I don't think people would like that. They want 'Selena Gomez', not 'weird JoBros'.

I grabbed two glasses of champagne and went over to Selena, handing her one. She gave me a courtesy and winked, "Ah- thank you! You are such a gentleman!" I felt my cheeks go red as I smiled uncomfortably. She laughed and pecked my lips. I felt my cheeks go even redder as she turned around and continued to talk with Taylor.

I decided to interrupt her conversation- I grabbed her waist and lifted her up. She tried to grab my hand, but I tickled her, making her stop and laugh. I laughed with her as Joe stood there like a proud daddy. Taylor was just admiring us. 

Everything was great- I guess the news is right this time- 

Nick Jonas is on re-runs for the third time.

I put her down and showered her with kisses she laughed and pushed me away- "Stop it, Nick! I need to talk with Taylor!" I kissed her one last time and tried to look for Joe.

I turned around to see Justin- with a swipe of his hand, he punched me in the face, making me hear a crack as I stumbled to the ground. Everything went black.
