Being alone is something I’m used to, I’ve never really had friends and my real parents put me up for adoption when I was born. My adoptive parents were nice, but once I turned 18 I moved to London to figure out what I wanted to do with my life. I’m currently a secretary at a recording studio down the street from my apartment. I’m very mature for my age, which is 19. I have light brown wavy hair and piercing blue eyes, and my names Carter, and yes, I’m a girl.
I was never really the type to stand out, which is why I kept under the radar in school and how I’m managing to do it at work now. It’s not that I’m anti-social, it’s just no one has really seemed interested in talking to me. My job is where I’m most happy though, you see, I want to be a singer, and getting to be around music all day is great. Plus, I get to catch glimpses of celebrities walking throughout the building, but never really got to say anything to them. Just then the phone rang flashing a number I wasn’t quite sure of,
“Hi this is A and K recording studios, Carter speaking, how may I help you?”
“Hi Carter, this is Scooter Braun, I’d like to schedule recording time for The Wanted sometime next week.”
“Sure thing! Let me just check the calendar and see when there’s space available.”
I can’t believe this, The Wanted, my favorite band is coming here, and I'm on the phone with Scooter Braun!
“Hi Mr. Braun, sorry to keep you waiting, we have space available next Tuesday if that’s okay with you.”
“Yes that’s perfect, thank you.”
Okay now I’m in freak out mode, The Wanted are coming to the studio. The very studio I work at. I need to make sure I look good Tuesday, that’s if they even take a glance my way.
The next day I went shopping to find a nice outfit to wear on Tuesday, I don’t even have an idea what to wear! It’s mid spring so it’s slightly warm out, so a sun dress would probably be the best choice. Going up and down the aisles I found a turquoise strapless flowy dress with a black, thin belt. I also found a pair of black heels that would go perfect! I decided I would wear my hair natural and wear light make up so I wasn’t too made up.
I headed back to my apartment and made myself some dinner; I sat at my table and just let everything sink in, how I have no one. If I ever had a problem, I had no one to go to, no one to talk to or anything. I tried to hold back the tears because I was better than that, but it just gets to me sometimes. I lost my appetite so I cleaned everything up and went to change into my pajamas and go on the computer. The first thing I did was go on twitter, even though I’ve never met any of them, the Fanmily makes me feel like someone cares about me, and that I’m not actually alone. None of the boys were on line so I just listened to music, Tuesday needs to come faster.
Today’s the day; the day The Wanted comes to the studio. I’m so excited! I don’t know why I’m freaking out so much; I’m probably not even going to meet them, just like every other celebrity. I started getting ready for work, first by taking a shower, then I blow dried my hair and left it wavy. Next I put on the beautiful blue dress that I got with the black heels. I ate a quick breakfast and headed to the studio. Once I got there I noticed a black van sitting out front, I knew that van from anywhere, that was The Wanted. I tried not to stare and just walked in and sat at my desk. I got all of my stuff organized and got to work. At that moment, the doors opened and in came the most amazing people I could ever lay my eyes on; I couldn’t keep my mouth from dropping. It looked like they were in a hurry so they didn’t even look at me, well that is besides Nathan. He looked at me with those amazing green eyes and gave me a smile. In that moment everything around me froze and I couldn’t even move. Somehow I managed to give a smile and wave back, but that was after the 10 seconds of just staring. He chuckled at the shocked state I was in, which caused me to blush. Once he was out of sight I let out a huge breath, I can’t believe that just happened. I had butterflies in my stomach and couldn’t even focus on my job. I decided to get up and go to the bathroom to calm down. As I walked into the bathroom I looked in the mirror. I hated what I saw, I always have. Since I had no friends in school I was known as the weird, ugly girl that no one would ever like. I splashed some water on my face to snap back to reality and decided to go back to my desk. As I was walking out of the bathroom door, someone was walking in and we both ended up on the floor. I didn’t even react at first and then I realized who was on the floor next to me, no other than Nathan Sykes himself. I got up as fast as possible because I was extremely embarrassed, but Nathan just stayed there. Then he said with a smirk,
“so are you gonna help me up or am I going to lay here all day?”
My cheeks were burning with embarrassment, I reached my hand out to him and when he grabbed it I felt tingles go throughout my whole body. I couldn’t even speak but finally found some words to say,
“Um, y-you do know you were just walking into the girls bathroom right?”
“Well no, looks like I read the signs wrong, I’m sorry for bumping into you”
“Oh it’s no big deal, really.”
“Well I’ll see you around I guess, bye love”
And with that he walked off with his signature wink. I can’t believe that just happened, well I guess I should probably work now.
