Nick squinted at the morning sun streaming through the window. He turned to see Michelle at his side, snoring softly. Nick watched her as she breathed in and out, the rise and fall of her chest was somehow hypnotising. He tore his eyes from Michelle and looked at the clock at his bedside table, 9:15. It was time he was getting up, he had a photo shoot at 11 and he needed to shower, get dressed and have breakfast. He got out of bed as quietly and softly as he could so as not to wake Michelle. He crept to the bathroom and proceeded to get showered. He had the most amazing night with Michelle last night, he was so lucky to have found her, he just hoped her stupid contract didnt get in the way. He walked back into the bedroom to find Michelle awake. She was dressing and smiled as Nick entered.
"Hey you" she said and kissed Nick warmly on the lips.
"Hi" he said returning her kiss with more passion.
"Down boy, Ive gotta get back before John realises Ive been gone all night."
Michelle made her way to the bathroom, to freshen up. Nick dressed and decided to tidy up a bit before he left. He disposed of the pizza box and made the bed. Michelle came out of the bathroom and put on her shoes.
"Well Id better go" she said sorrowfully. Nick came up behind her and nibbled her ear.
"Do you have to? We could just forget about work and stay here all day" he breathed, only half-joking. Michelle turned round and kissed him.
"As tempting as that sounds, you know we cant do that."
"Mmmmmmmmmmmmm unfortunately I do."
Michelle finished fastening her shoes and stood up, she headed towards the door with Nick in tow.
"Listen Nick I had an unbelievable night last night, thank you."
"So...what happens now?" Asked Nick concerned.
"I dont want this to end, I love you."
"I love you too"
"If we keep it secret no one would ever find out and we could stay together, but that means we cant tell anyone"
"Yeah I know" Nick said as he took Michelle into his arms.
"I gotta go" Michelle said against his lips.
"OK, Ill call you"
"Youd better, bye"
"Bye"
Nick gave Michelle one final lingering kiss as she left, leaving Nick with a huge grin on his face.
*************************************************************
Michelle walked the few blocks back to her own hotel, a spring in her step. She was so in love with Nick and so happy, she had never felt this way about a guy. She skipped into the lobby and quickly ran upstairs. She entered her room and changed quickly, she didnt want John to know she had been out all night. She sat on her bed humming a melody she had, had in her head for a while, it was good tune it needed lyrics. Feeling creative she got out her precious note book and started writing, memories of last night invaded her thoughts and inspired her. There was a knock on her door, sighing she reluctantly answered it, not wanted to lose her train of thought. John was standing at the door, his face hard as usual, doesnt he ever smile? Michelle thought.
"Can I come in?" he asked
"Sure"
"Good night last night?" he enquired
"Er.........so, so nothing special" she lied
"Oh well, Ive got some news for you, Im not sure if its good or bad news though."
"Oh..........well what is it?"
"Youve been offered a support slot on a major US tour"
"WOW, thats great news, why would you think that was bad news? Who will I be supporting?"
"Well thats kinda the bad news, I know youre not really into this whole pop phenomenon thing, so if you decide to do it, youll be supporting the Backstreet Boys"
What??????!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is such a blessing? What are the chances of that happening? Thank you God
"Well thats OK" Michelle said, desperately trying to conceal her excitement, I dont care who I support as long as it gets me out there and recognised.
"So you will do it?"
YES, YES, YES, YES, YES, YES, YES, YES, YES, YES, YES, YES, YES, YES
"Yep" she said as calmly as she could.
"Good, Ill ring Jive and confirm then I can give you the details."
Michelle couldnt believe what had happened, not only was she going to get to spend a lot of time with the guy she loved, she would also get a chance to become a HUGE star. Her life just couldnt get any better.
