✨️Adam - Performing in Paris?

You and Adam had been dating for about six years. You had shared many great moments together, and you couldn't help but still feel butterflies every time he kissed you.

One day, as you were walking through Central Park, Adam turned to you and asked, "Y/N, do you want to come to Paris with me?"

You looked at him, surprised. "Paris?" You said. "What for?"

"We have a concert there next month," Adam said. "I want you to come with me, to see the city, AND," he added, a mischievous glint in his eye, "to perform with us on the stage."

"What?" you asked, looking in his eyes, trying to tell if he was joking.

Sure, you knew how to play guitar. You had practically played it ever since you were able to hold one. Of course, you had sometimes helped out with background vocals every time Ryan or Jack needed some.

"You're joking," you said, still trying to figure out if he were.

"I'm telling the truth. We would love having you up there with us, as well as the fans." He said, taking you in for a side hug and holding his arm out in front of you.

"Imagen, a crowd full of hundreds of people shouting your name. "Y/N, Y/N, Y/N." You chuckled at his silly behavior.

You thought for a moment, felt a thrill of excitement run through you. Paris was one of your favorite cities, and the idea of performing there, in front of so many people, was both exhilarating and daunting. But with Adam and his brothers by your side, you felt like you had a good survival rate.

"Okay," you said, grinning. "I'll come with you."

You and Adam made your plans to travel to Paris together, you bringing your guitar and Adam bringing his trusty Bass.

The trip was everything you had hoped for and more. You wandered through the city, hand in hand, taking in the sights and sounds of a place that was both familiar and new. As you spend days wandering the city, the concert day only grew closer.

On the day of the concert, you felt a mix of nerves and excitement. You had rehearsed with Adam and his brothers, but the thought of performing in front of such a large crowd was overwhelming.

"You feeling okay, Y/N?" Jack asked, looking slightly concerned and amused.

"Yeah, just a little nervous." You said, looking back at him. "Don't worry, you're talented, Y/N! We wouldn't have asked you if we didn't think you'd be able to do it," Jack replied before being interrupted.

"Y/N, Jack! There you are," Adam said, relieved. "We're about to go on, come on. Ryan wants us to go through the plan again."

After you rehearsed the plan for about the 100th time, everything was ready. As you walked onto the stage, the lights blinding you for a moment, you felt Adam's hand in yours, giving you the courage you needed to step forward.

As the music began to play, you started playing the guitar. At first, you felt a little shaky, but as you looked out at the audience, you saw smiling faces and heard many cheers as the audience sang along. That was all you needed to really get into the groove and start to relax.

As you played, you felt a rush of adrenaline, and the nervousness melted away. You were in the moment, enjoying the music and the energy of the crowd. Adam was right. This was an amazing experience.

When the opening songs ended, the applause was deafening. You looked out at the audience, feeling grateful and proud of what you had just accomplished.

"That was amazing, Y/N," he said. "You're killing it!"

You couldn't help but smile back at him, feeling grateful for the opportunity to share this experience with him and the rest of the band. The concert continued, and you played your heart out, enjoying every moment of it.

As the final song had been played, Adam gave you a kiss on the cheek, and with a wide grin on his face, you bowed before the audience and walked off the stage hand in hand.

After the concert, as you and Adam walked back to your hotel room, you felt a sense of pride. As you and Adam entered your hotel room, the adrenaline from the concert still rushing through your veins, you both collapsed onto the bed, exhausted but elated.

"Wow," you said. "I can't believe we just did that."

Adam chuckled. "I told you, you'd be amazing. You were born to be on stage, Y/N."

You smiled, feeling a warm glow in your chest at his words. "Thank you, Adam. I couldn't have done it without you and your brothers."

Adam wrapped his arm around you, pulling you close. "We make a pretty great team, don't we?"

You nodded, snuggling into his embrace. "Yeah, we do."

As you lay there in silence for a moment, enjoying the afterglow of the concert, you felt Adam's fingers gently playing with your hair.

"I love you, Y/N," he said softly, his voice full of emotion.

You looked up at him, feeling your heart swell with love for this man who had been by your side for six years through all the ups and downs.

"I love you too, Adam," you said, reaching up to kiss him softly on the lips.

For a moment, you both lay there in silence, lost in your thoughts and feelings. Finally, Adam spoke up again.

"You know, I was thinking," he said. "We should do this more often. Travel the world and play music together."

You looked at him, surprised but intrigued by his suggestion. "What do you mean, Adam?"

"I mean, why just stay in our comfort zone?" he said. "You should perform with us, Y/N."

You felt a thrill of excitement at his words, the possibilities of what they could do together. "I love that idea, Adam."

Adam grinned, pulling you close again. "I knew you'd be up for an adventure, Y/N. That's why I love you so much."

You smiled, feeling grateful for this man who had not only supported your dreams but also challenged you to be the best version of yourself. You knew that there would be challenges ahead, but with Adam by your side, you were ready to face them head-on.

As you both drifted off to sleep, wrapped in each other's arms, you knew that this adventure was far from over. It was only just beginning, and you couldn't wait to see where it would take you next.
