Still Fallin (Hunter Hayes Fanfiction)

The Fall of a Lifetime

As I awoke in my hotel room, I woke to the band members playing in the room next to me, they were just tuning their instruments and such. It was going to be a long day today and I intend to make the best of it, by first tuning up my Martin and playing some music. I tuned up my guitar and started tapping my feet to the rhythm of Flashlight, I began strumming and singing to the rhythm of Flashlight, It was so catchy to me hearing it last night and just trying to hit every note perfectly. I heard a loud knock on my door, I stopped playing the strings on my guitar and got up opening the door to see a Mr. Hayes at my door.

"Hey, was that you singing? Cause if it was, it was quite good" He said walking over to my Martin laying flat on my bed. I blushed and smiled looking at him, staring into those turquoise eyes of his. They made my heart melt as I looked into them, he stared back into mine I saw compassion and lonely in his eyes. "Um..Yeah that was me, kinda figured everyone was busy and wouldn't hear me..." I said looking down at my feet, blushing smiling. I tapped my feet on the floor to Flashlights rhythm, trying to keep myself from saying anything stupid. "Well it was quite good might I say lovely lady" he says, as I get up and grab two bottles of water handing one to Hunter. "Well thank you Mr. Hayes, I appreciate that" I say sitting back on the bed, looking out the window taking a sip. "You can call me Hunter, you're welcome Miss Moon" He says, making me blush. I put on my bottle on the bedside table and looked back at him, those blue eyes made me melt. "So..I was wondering Miss moon, if maybe you'd want to sing with me tonight together?" he says, looking up at me staring into my eyes. "Of course, I'd love to. What song would you like to duet?" I asked, seeing the happiness in his eyes as I smile. "I was thinking maybe What you gonna do?" he says, smiling back at me, "That sounds amazing, I'd love to" I say smiling and getting all excited as he hugs me and kisses my cheek, making me giggle and blush. "I'll make sure to tell my manager to get a dress for you tonight, we'll practice at rehearsal" he said getting up and heading towards the door, opening it and shutting it behind himself. I giggled and got ready for rehearsal, I put my guitar and put it back in the case, picking it up and heading out the door to the ballroom of the hotel. I got there early so I could sing up on the mic alone, because its fun and I could actually get some practice in for rehearsing with Hunter. 

I got up on the microphone and picked up my guitar from the case, and looked around one last time to make sure no one was around while I sang. I began strumming the chords for Love makes me that song was my song whenever I got picked up from school. I blast it on the stereo when I got in my dads truck, my mother was always into George strait and Garth brooks and Jonny cash so it spoke to her whenever I put it on. I miss those days when I was happy and had less responsibilities. I teared up but I sang trying to hold back the tears and singing the right notes at the right times. As I ended off the last few words I heard clapping from the stands and behind me making me scared and slightly red, wasn't sure who it was but I put my guitar on the stand and headed back stage to help the band get set up on stage. I was red the entire evening and it was kinda embarrassing to know that someone was listening, and paying attention to me. I tend to get ignored in most situations if not all situations, makes me kinda sad but its life and whatever it gives you, you have to deal with somehow. I'm proud of what I've made of myself thus far in life, I couldn't have made it this far without my family, most importantly my dad for telling me to follow my heart on what I want to do. I never would've graduated college or became a lead guitarist for Luke Bryan, or Hunter Hayes or Lady Antebellum, It's made me happy to follow my dreams and to know my father is watching over me smiling down at me. After helping the guys set up the instruments and wires, I grab my coat and head out to a Starbucks across the street grabbing myself a chai and coffee for the rest of the members of the bands. After dropping off the coffees and finishing off my chai I head down to a small clothes shop next to Starbucks across the street, I decide to check it out finding a long black down with a long slit down the side of it showing up the the thigh, I decided to buy it and use it for tomorrow at the ACMs looking snazzy while playing the guitar. Would be a different change of pace, I decided to buy a couple pairs of shorts and skirts, and some shirts and a new thermal. My old Thermal is getting all torn from being worn all the time, it's the only jacket I wear in the spring and fall. It was only May so I could wear whatever I wanted, still kinda cold but it's what I could deal with. I walked my way back to the hotel and into the ballroom after I dropped off the clothes I bought. I was surprised when I walked into the ballroom to see Luke and Hunter talking as he tuning his guitar on stage, It made me happy looking at Hunter it was his presence that made me feel safe but maybe one day it'll be something more than just feelings for him, maybe more....
