Dance with Me

Justin’s POV

Nick told me that Scooter wanted me at my next interview in a few, and that it was going to take a while for us to get there, so it would be best if we just left. Maya had showed me to the door before closing it once I was halfway to the car.

My hands were in my pockets as I walked down the driveway to the truck. I climbed onto the passenger seat and closed the door behind me. Before I knew it, Nick was pulling away from Maya’s house.

I was in a complete daze after what had just happened. In fact I didn’t even know what had happened, or why it happened. All I know was one minute I was listening to her play the piano. The next minute we were singing together and I almost kissed her….twice!

I couldn’t describe the way I felt when I was listening to her sing. Her voice was so hypnotic, so enticing. It was one of the most beautiful voices that I had ever heard. I couldn’t help but to start singing with her.

But what about me almost kissing her.

I didn’t know what to say about that. Sure, we flirted with each other all the time but that was nothin’. That was just us being teenagers. It didn’t mean anything more than a physical attraction.

But if that was the case, then why did I almost kiss her. Why did I suddenly want to kiss her more than I ever have before?

Before when I wanted to kiss her it was sort of a heat of the moment thing, almost to see if she would do it. Just to see which one of us would cave first and kiss the other. Or just to see if I would say the right thing to get her to kiss me. Either way I only wanted to kiss her because of the physical attraction, but this time was different.

This time I really wanted to kiss her. As I stared into her deep brown eyes I just realized just how badly I wanted to kiss her. I wanted to see if her lips were as soft as they look. I wanted to see if her kiss was as angelic as her voice when she sang. I just wanted to kiss her more than I ever had.

“Hey man, you okay” Nick spoke causing me to snap out of my trance.

“Huh, oh yeah I’m fine” I muttered as I stared out the window.

“You sure, you were spacing out”

“Nah, I’m fine just…..thinking” I muttered once again.

“About Natalie?” he questioned.

My head immediately snapped over to him. He didn’t know about the previous incident, he couldn’t know. The only people who knew were Dante and Maya. How could he have known that I was thinking about Natalie? Was it really that obvious?

“Why do you ask?” I questioned while trying to keep my cool. A smirk soon made its way onto Nick’s face as he continued to focus on the road.

“I figured that you would start thinking about her sooner or later, especially after your little nap” he explained as he continued to smirk.

“You’ve fallen asleep in the car tons of times but I think that’s the first time you’ve fallen asleep with a big ass smile like that on your face” he finished.

Once he said that, my mind began to wonder back to earlier in the car. I remembered when I pulled her body closer to me as she slept. I laid awake for a while and listened to her breathing become slow and even. I couldn’t describe the feeling that I had while I was holding her in my arms. All I wanted to do was to hold her and never let her go. I wanted to lay there with her forever. I remember glancing up at her as she slept. Her face had softened and her soft lips had twisted upward into a smile. I remember smiling as I hoped that I had put that smile on her face.

At the time I didn’t know why I felt that way, but I did. I just felt so comfortable with her in my arms. I didn’t ever want her to leave my grasp, or for me to leave hers. That was part of the reason why I couldn’t let her go. The other reason was because I hadn’t slept so well in so long, that I didn’t want it to end.

“You know you’re spacing out again” Nick pointed out.

I couldn’t help but roll my eyes. “I don’t know what you’re talking about” I lied. I knew exactly what he was talking about; I just didn’t want to talk about it at the moment or at least not with him.

Nick chuckled and shook his head. I slid my phone out of my pocket and started to text Ryan to pass the time and to take my mind off of Natalie. We had been texting for a while and it seemed to be keeping my mind off of Natalie, until he sent me a certain text.

-Ryan
Pick up a few chicks for me at the interview & make sure it’s 1 u can keep around for a while

My face fell slightly as I read his text. My mind once again wondered to Natalie. It seemed to wonder back to her eyes this time. Her deep brown eyes, that seemed to captivate me. They held so much emotion. They held sadness, pain, anger and longing. Except when she danced, when she danced or saw her little brother they instantly filled with joy. The only other time that her eyes filled with the same joy was when she laughed. Sure, they were happy when she smile and they seemed too lit up a bit but not the same way when she danced. I always seemed to have the urge to make her eyes lit up whenever I was around her.

I sighed as I texted Ryan back.

-Justin
I may have already found one

-X-

“So Justin did you ever imagine that you would be here one day?” the interviewer asked.

I was sitting in a chair in the studio next to the interviewer who’s name I can’t remember. There were tons of fans in the audience who would cheer at almost anything I said. There were tons of flashes going off during the interview. Either way I had become close to both of them.

I smiled one of my famous smiles, at the lady who was interviewing me who seemed to be in her early thirties. I held the microphone up to my lips as I got ready to answer the question. A few of the fans screamed as I continued to smile and let out a small laugh.

“Nah, I don’t really think of it like that. I’m just takin’ it one day at a time. I don’t really see it as me being famous, you know” I spoke. A few more of the fans screamed as I flipped my hair.

“I see. I also see that you’re getting noticed by quite a lot of girls”

The entire room seemed to erupt in screams. I laughed again as I held the microphone up to my lips. I shh’d the crowd and after a while they were quite once again.

“I guess you could say that” I spoke.

“So with all of these girls, has anyone of them caught your eye?” she questioned as she crossed her legs and raised her brow suggestively.

The cheers that erupted in the room went almost unnoticed to me. I could only focus on one person when she said that, Natalie. Natalie was the person who had caught my eye. I hadn’t exactly fallen for her yet, but I was starting to feel something towards her. How could I not after the incident?

“A few” I exaggerated with a wink. I knew that there was only one person who had caught my eye recently. This only caused more cheers and a laugh from my interviewer. I smiled despite what I was feeling inside.

I wanted to hold Natalie in my arms again. I wanted to see if her lips were as soft as I imagined as I held her.

What was happening to me?
