Brynn's POV
Tonight is my first actual show that Michael has been to. Ever. Nervous is an understatement. I want to make him proud even though he can't be in the crowd. He's watching from the side of the stage where no one can see him.
I also found out I had a private meet and greet before the show, so I can't hang out with Michael then unless we decided to say that we're just friends now, and he's being nice and supporting me. That wouldn't work anyways. I'd need to talk to management about announcing it.
I'm lucky enough to once again have close ties with my management. My mom met Eliot through her manager, who is Eliot's dad. I have the same management, so my "grandpa," as he likes to call it, is my manager.
"Ooooh who are you texting?" I ask Addie. In attempt to see, I try to peer over her shoulder, but she ninja slaps my face.
"No one," she murmurs, still engrossed in the device.
"Suuuuuure," I accuse her slyly, and she just shrugs.
"Go hang out with your boyfriend," she huffs, putting her phone down and glaring at me.
"What you've never said ever," I laugh. I always thought Addie just didn't like me spending a lot of time with my boyfriend, but she just didn't like me spending time with James. She always wants me to hang out with Michael.
"Michael's chill though. James was a demon wreaking havoc amongst the common folk," she says dead serious, and I start laughing.
"That's true," I admit, and she nods.
"He never deserved you," Addie shrugs, and I noticed she's changed the subject.
"You changed the subject. Who are you texting?" I question again. As soon as I say that, Michael comes in the room wearing a sweatshirt, his Leveled jeans, and sunglasses. I completely leave pestering Addie to run over and hug him. He laughs and hugs me back.
"I got stopped at least seven times, but then they let me through when they saw it was me," Michael laughs, and I smile. Seeing him laugh just makes me smile.
"Weren't you with someone as well?" I ask, and he nods.
"Yeah, some security guard was with me," he responds. I grab his hand and sit down on the couch. He sits down next to me, wrapping an arm around my waist. I lean up against his shoulder. "Ooooh, who are you texting Addie?" Michael asks, making me start hysterically laughing while Addie groans.
"You're amazing Michael," I hum with a laugh, kissing his cheek.
"I don't know what I did, but thanks," he says.
"Michael, you should set Addie up with one of your friends," I suggest.
"None of them are close to here. The rest are in America," he frowns. Addie sticks her tongue out at me.
"Ha Brynn. Whatever double date fantasies you have aren't happening," Addie makes fun of me. Right then, I think of a plan.
"I'm going to grab some water. Do you want some?" I ask, and Michael shakes his head.
"Can you get some for me?" Addie asks. I stand up. My feet bring me over to the mini fridge where I grab two small waters. I walk over to Addie. As I place the water next to her, I snatch her phone and run away with it.
"Brynn!" she screams in shock and annoyance. I look at the name on the screen, and my eyes widen.
"You are texting one of Michael's friends," I say, and Michael sits up.
"Stop," Addie urges like a whiny little sister.
"And his name has a green heart next to it," I smile, and she grabs it back. I look at Michael, and it seems like everything just clicked in his head.
"Brynn, you know how you were trying to play 2048 the other day?" Michael asks, completely off topic.
"Yeah. I got to like 256 or something," I turn my attention away from Addie and onto him.
"Did you see my story this morning?" he asks another question, and I shake my head sadly.
"I can't follow you again or else people will see and get suspicious," I frown. It's true. People would flip if I followed him again, so I have to check everything manually and never comment or like anything. I forgot to look this morning.
"Well, guess who got to 8192?" he asks, making my jaw drop. It's a stretch for me to even get into the 500s, let alone 8000+.
"You're a literal god I swear," I admit, making him smile.
"I ain't too religious but I swear to god she's a goddess," Michael raps, hitting me with a wave of nostalgia.
"And with that, Michael just killed his girlfriend," Addie announces, draping a blanket over my head.
"I'm sorry," Michael laughs, hugging me. It probably looks weird since I'm covered by a fuzzy, black blanket, but I don't care. Suddenly, he flips me onto the couch and does a cute, short little laugh.
"That was a mistake," I throw the blanket off and start chasing him around the room. He has an obvious advantage, being at least 3/4 of a foot taller than me, but I can make it up with my quick speed. Psych, I can't run for shit. One thing I can do though, is act.
"Agh," I wince, falling down the ground. I grab my ankle in "pain" and clench my teeth. As soon as it happens, Michael quickly turns around and runs over to me.
"What happened?" he asks, a nervous look on his face.
"You fell for the oldest trick in the book," I laugh, grabbing him by his shoulders and pulling him down to the ground with me. The two of us just start hysterically laughing.
"I should've known," he laughs, and I nod, kissing his nose.
"You really should have," I admit. A loud knock is heard at the door.
"Come in," I yell, in comes some generic person who works at the arena.
"Ms. Williams," they call, and I pop up from behind the couch.
"Yes," I respond. The lady just shakes her head.
"I'm not even going to ask. It's time for the meet and greet," she smiles, gesturing towards the door. I send Michael and Addie a little hand heart before walking out.
HOW DID HE DO THIS HOW!?!?!
Sorry this is late. I had a strong urge to update divided all weekend, and I had writers block.
Okay, now for the Q&A
How old r u?
I'm obviously five😉
How did you find out about the boy band IRL,WDW and all of them?
Each of them have a different story.
Like I saw pretty much because I was watching 1D videos, and there was a video like "pretty much is the new 1D" and I got salty😂.
Umm, I found NHC through Pandora in early June. Their first ep was out, and "Fixed" came on. I really liked it, so I looked into them and BAM.
So for WDW I saw their individual stories ranked in ff, but I dismissed it. Then, one of my friends brought them up at a party and said they liked one of their songs.
1D are 1D so you generally hear about them everywhere😂
I heard about 5sos through my older sister. I knew they existed, but I wasn't into them at all. She asked me which member I thought was the most attractive, and I chose my love Ashton :). I then slowly started to like them more and more.
I learnt about BTR from their tv show that used to be on Nick.
I knew CNCO through my recommendations, but I didn't know anything about them. I then made a friend named Julia (shout out to her) who really likes them, and she's told me about them
And now for my favorite, IRL. A couple of months before Boy Band aired, back in February I believe, we saw a commercial for it on ABC. We were like "we should watch that when it comes out." Time skip to June 22. My family is eight hours away from home in a hotel since we are coming back from a vacation. We are browsing through channels and what do we see? A commercial for the boy band premiere that night. We go to dinner and come back to watch it. The rest is history.
I don't necessarily stan all of these bands, but there's a story with each of them.
What are your thoughts about the ship called Lergio?
Lergio isn't a ship, it's reality.
What is your favorite animal?
Cats/ kittens and blob fish are the best fish
Would you still stan IRL if MC wasn't in it?
Of course, but not to the same extent. 2/5 or 3/5 (depending who took Michael's spot) of my band throughout the whole competition or 3/5 or 4/5 of my band at top eight would still be in it. Like if Michael had decided that he just couldn't be in the band, I would still like them, but it wouldn't be the same. There would be a huge hole in my heart, and I have no idea who my favorite would be.
Would you ever consider writing a book about Estevan?
Of course. It would be called "The Chronicles of Estevan" or something like that
Are you excited about the potential Jonas Brothers reunion?
I DIDNT EVEN KNOW THIS WAS A THING OF COURSE (I looked into it and found the article saying "Niall Horan has the power to reunite the Jonas Brothers" and I was like "HELL YEAH HE CAN HES NIALL")
what do you like to do in your free time? if you have any free time 😂
I write in my free time and stan IRL along with some other various artists like 5sos, 1D, Niall, and NHC. I also play club soccer. I also talk to my internet friends.
what grade are you in?
The first grade for sure ;)
chance and emma or chance and lili?
Whatever makes Chance happy I'm fine with. He's a twenty year old, and I think he should do whatever makes him happiest
what's your favorite color?
Orange, the only color that doubles as a fruit
favorite 5sos song?
Ah this is soooooo hard. I have to go with Story of Another Us, but they have so many good songs.
Do you have a fan account?
Sadly, no.

I'm going to start having to put the stuff when I'm tagged down here because I have so many piled up
