*********************************
Jeff fucking lied to me. It has been the slowest three hours of my life with one more hour to go. I have been nominated for Best solo male artist and best album but lost both of those. It was a bit disappointing but I'm still insanely proud of my album so nothing I can't get over. I have been just sitting at this table talking to Jeff and taking in wine left and right the whole time. I'm starting to feel the side effects of the wine though... Although this night has been going by terribly slowly Lizzo is sitting at the table right behind me so we have been joking around all night. After our performance together a couple of weeks ago we have gotten much closer. Currently, Jack is sitting next to Lizzo talking about her album and our performance during the awards break.
"Harry, how do you feel about going to the after-party?" Jeff says drowning out the two.
"I think Mitch has something planned for later so I think I'm alright," I say slowly. Jeff was about to respond, but I heard my name from behind and a tap on my right shoulder. Turning around I see Lizzo and Jack looking at me with the bright cameras looking at us all. Lizzo grabs my hand and pulls me into her as I lay my head on her shoulder.
"Harold back off," Jack says in a serious tone holding his mic close to his mouth while Lizzo laughs.
"Are you saying your jealous Jack?" Lizzo says in a similar tone.
"I was a bit jealous watching that performance," Jack says back while I smile at the two. "I was just thinking if you wanted an English man you would want someone a bit more mature and posher," Jack says lightly.
I perk up my head with my hand intertwined with Lizzo "oh ok I see how it is" I say to Jack jokingly.
"You are just jealous," Lizzo says right at him.
"Oh my god, I am so jealous right now. I can't bear this" Jack says as a joke while Lizzo cackles. I try to say something back but Jack quickly interrupts me.
"Just back off Styles, this is my moment," He says waving his hand making Lizzo, I and the others inside laugh louder.
"Go and have your moment," I say letting go of Lizzo and turning back to my table.
"That was something else, we gotta get you a Lizzo together more" Jeff whispers to me with a smirk. I give him a nice smile and nod before continuing my conversation with the person next to me.
"Wow as this night is flying bye we only have three more awards then we will head out to the after-party if pleased," Jack says on the stage with Clara Amfo.
"Moving on to the Best International Male Artist-" Clara says over-enthusiastically. After ten long minutes and a drink later they finally get on the results. Not caring much about the results my stupid slightly drunk consense tells me to pay attention.
"And the winner for Best International Male artist of 2020 is...¨ Clara says suspensefully. "Tyler The Creator!" Clara shouts. Everyone stands up in applause and cheerful shouts hearing the singer's name. I stood up a bit too quickly feeling a bit dizzy glad to hear he won. I have listened to Tyler's music quite a bit since Goblin came out and always adored his music. I always wondered if he would be up to a collaboration or if that would be outside of his comfort zone. He starts to walk down from his table a bit behind mine hugging people on his way. Coming up to my table he effortlessly pulls me into a warm hug catching me off guard before he keeps walking. I notice how he stops for a second and glances at me with slightly warm but wide eyes before stumbling quickly towards the stage. I wonder what that was about? I ask myself. I see him grab the award and flash a silly pose which makes me chuckle before he pulls Clara and Jack into a hug. I put my two pinkies in my mouth making a loud whistle then smiling slightly as I sat down. He went on to give out thanks and a small speech before continuing with the night.
Jeff leans over to me "Hey mate it's about to end do you want me to drop you off at Mitch's and leave early?" He talks in a low voice so no one overhears.
"Yeah that would be great should I wait in the lobby for you?" I ask in a grateful tone. He glances at the table then to me
"Yeah and I'll just text you when I pull up outside" He smiles at me while slowly standing up from his chair. I grab my phone from the table and start to walk in the other direction towards the lobby. I looked over my shoulder towards the table Tyler was sitting at but he's nowhere to be seen. Not thinking about it too much I continued my way towards the main lobby. Stumbling towards the front of the lobby I pull out my phone to text Mitch I caught a ride from Jeff. Looking down at my phone I feel the sudden presence of someone. As I look up while walking I stumble a bit knocking into someone.
"Oh shit sorr- fuck sorry" I heard a voice next to me. Looking over next to me is Tyler from earlier but this time his eyes are wide and he's frozen.
I smile a bit "It's alright, congratulations by the way on your award. Your music is fucking amazing and you deserved it" I say ignoring the shocked look on is his face. Suddenly his face lights up
"I had no idea you listened to my music that is so fucking tight holy shit, and that's a lot coming from you" he says fast. I instantly felt at ease for some odd reason. Though I quickly realized I was staring at his bright yet dark brown eyes like a creep and cleared my throat looking off to the distance quickly.
"Yeah of course you gotta be one of my favorite rappers," I said cooly looking back towards him.
"Really?!" he says in slight shock "I mean thank you, man. You make some dope shit too. I love your stuff." he says interested. I feel a slight blush crawling up my neck before hearing a couple of chimes from my phone.
"Thanks that's nice of you, um how long are you saying around town? Maybe we could meet up for dinner or something. Just to get to know you a bit better of course. If not that's fine I mean we can meet up in LA or something-¨ I ramble on "yes that would be fucking great could I have your manager's info or something" he askes.
I look at him confused for a second "why not just take my number?" I ask slowly.
He perks up a bit more "yes, yeah, yes please whatever you feel chill with." he stumbles over his words slightly.
"Alright, I'll send all my information over to your manager because I got to get going. But It's nice meeting you finally and I hope to get to know you better." I say with a soft smirk.
"Yeah you to Styles have a great night," he says pulling me into a hug catching me off guard for a second. I start to walk towards the doors at the front looking over my shoulder to see him smiling wildly and waving at me. I chuckle a bit before looking ahead again. Feeling the buzz of alcohol finally wearing off and fresh air filling my lungs as I step outside, I click my phone open to see a couple of new notifications. A couple from Mitch saying he will be waiting at his place and Jeff saying he's waiting in his jeep outside from three minutes ago. I lookout for a black jeep nearby and as soon as I spot it I speed walk over to him. Getting into his car I immediately apologize for holding him up. A couple of minutes into the drive I already felt like I'm missing something or someone... immediately I feel the need to fill the air.
"Hey, could I play some music?" I ask Jeff while twiddling the rings on my right hand.
He glances at me softly "yeah go ahead" he says nicely. The quietness is immediately filled with ABBA which makes me feel more comfortable.
Hey, Jeff... do you know much about Tyler The Creator?" I ask not being able to get Tyler out of my head.
He looks over a bit interested "not too much why... do you need me to contact his manager for something?" he says now, looking a bit worried.
"NO- I mean no it's alright, I just ran into him and he seems like a nice guy. But could you get me his manager's email or his number?" I ask curiously.
He looks at me weirdly slightly for a second "yeah of course mate, I'll get it to you by tomorrow. Is that alright?" he asked, chuckling a little bit.
"Yeah that should be fine thanks" I say squinting my eyes a bit while looking straight ahead. I feel his eyes on me for a second before hearing a small sigh letting ABBA continue to fill the space.
