That One Girl

She glanced up at the stage, and admiringly stared at the three handsome guys singing. Their enchanting voices echoing… resounding every note, sharp and flat in her body. Her focus moved to that young man with curly locks, singing his heart out. She immersed herself in her love’s resonating secret serenade.

“I love you.” She softly whispered with eyes still focused on him, as if she knew that her message was heard by him. “I really do.”

At such instant, Nick looked down at the rightmost seat in the front row, making eye contact with the pretty girl staring at him. He sang, “When you look me in the eyes, you tell me that you love me”, with the most passionate voice he can ever sing with, giving away the lines’ truest meaning to the listeners.

He discreetly moved the microphone from his face, quietly mouthing an “I love you” to his precious one. This was not left uncaught by the fans admiring him, though, and they immediately glanced at where Nick's sweet eyes are intently focused.

Soon claps were heard from fans nearby, cheering for them.

She slowly stood up with her eyes still focused at his’. Lost in their own world, Nick slowly walked at the edge of the stage, while she made her way near him. He kneeled and extended his hand to her, giving her his sweetest smile. She took it with much appreciation… For the first time, the world knew who she was, and what she meant to him.

“Please be mine, Goldie.” He softly told her. “Please be…”

The pretty girl breathed deeply as she held onto her breath, waiting to hear more of his lovely voice. She gasped with much surprise, as she tightly held her blanket close to her.

“It was all a dream.” She sighed as she looked down on the sheets with so much disappointment. “At least for a fleeting moment, I felt like it was real.” She said with a soft smile curved on her face.

“Things will be so better later.” She quickly got up and prepared herself for their concert this afternoon.

Goldie patiently waited in line as her imagination ran wild, thinking about possible conversation starters when she finally gives them their gift, Nick’s especially. She held the gift with utmost care, looking at it as if it was the most precious thing on earth.

Her eyes abruptly shifted to her left when she heard other fans screaming their hearts out, saying, “We love you Joe, Kevin, Nick!” and “You guys are awesome!”

She keenly looked at Nick, wishing he would do the same, as she remembered the dream she had last night. As if a fairy godmother heard her wish, he looked at her direction, making eye contact with her, and even giving her a knowing smile—hinting her of something to look forward to.

Is love at first sight even real? He thought to himself the moment he took his glance away from her and looked at the other fans, trying to search for that certain glow from the others that existed only in the girl he smiled at a few moments ago.

“This will definitely be a good afternoon!” Goldie told herself and unknowingly smiled.
