After the concert Jordan was quickly ushered to the hall where a fans meet had been scheduled. Even though he couldn't meet the group yet , he made sure that they are either made comfortable in their hotel rooms or escorted to the fans meet according to their wishes.

The whole lot was extremely tired . All they could see in front of their eyes was a comfy bed and all they could feel was a soft feathery pillow. At the moment the only thing they desired was to kiss their beds and not get up till the, maybe next evening. Who could blame them ? After a long flight and a big concert, nothing else could be expected from the poor souls.

Rose however didn't feel like going back to the hotel room. She had always wanted to attend a fans meet but never got lucky enough. Today she had the opportunity but not the energy to drag herself there. Yet not wanting to have regrets and with thoughts of finally meeting Jordan clouding her eyes in a thick fog, she found herself agreeing to go to the fans meet. The rest were too tired to either protest or even register anything .

As she entered the spacious hall , she was immediately hit by squealing fans and overexcited girls. But who was complaining ? She entered the line too, sudden energy swirling in her . Soon she had merged in the excited chatting girls as if she had known since forever.

When Jordan entered the hall , as expected it went into an uproar welcoming the most renowned pop artist today. Rose was so awestruck at the site. His fans truly loved him. All the people in the room were all praises for him. Rose was so overwhelmed that she decided to record them all in her phone . So she sneakingly switched on the recorder keeping it safely in her pocket .

Jordan as usual was overwhelmingly happy and grateful for the love he got from all these people. They supported and loved him without even knowing him well. They supported an image they had made in their minds , an image of a perfect man and Jordan struggled to maintain it. But it was completely worth it . It was moments like these that inspired him to keep doing better , to be better for them rather than himself.

But now , now he wanted to do his best , to be the best , all for the girl who was now standing in a line waiting for her turn to meet him gazing at him intently.

The intesity might be a bit too much as Jordan raised his head and his eyes automatically spotted her in the large crowd. He was pleasantly surprised to see her there. The small smile on his face grew and his eyes twinkled . He cocked his head confused but couldn't think any further when suddenly a fan pounced on him taking him into a hug.

Now this was enough to suddenly cut the powers that were rooting Rose to her place as she quickly started making her way towards him scowling at the girl.

Jordan was about to pry her gently off of him but in that moment he saw the sight of a fuming scowling Rose. Now this was amusing . He grinned internally and slightly hugged the girl back , all his attention on the girl who had him wrapped around her little finger .

Rose immediately froze in her tracks , her scowl morphing into a grim set mouth. She glanced over at Jordan sadly . But that was until she saw the mischief in his eyes.

If this was what he wanted, then Rose was more than glad to give it to him.

' Oh Mr. Grumpy ! You seemed to have striked the wrong place.'

All this while she didn't let her expression fall. Instead she forced instant fake tears in her eyes . She didn't let them fall , just let them rest on the edge . She let her confidently set straight shoulders fall a bit and left the hands on her side loose.

Anyone who didn't know her or was far away from her would think she was about to break down. Jordan unfortunately was too far away from her to catch on her act . The mischievous glint vanished in a second and now his eyes reflected unquestionable guilt and worry .
