IT'S NOT GOODBYE - Käärijä x Reader

Chapter 2

-The sunscreen girl! - he shouts.

-But... wait a minute. - I say putting a hand on my chest dramatically. - You are one of the contestants?

-Yes! - he laughs at my reaction.

- Of Finland!

-Yes, yes!

I reach them and now there's only a security barrier between them and me.

Blanca approaches her face to me and I grab the lipstick I need from my kit. I delicately grab her chin and I repair the mess.

-Did you met before? -Says Blanca while I'm working.

-Yes, this morning. - I say focused on her lips.

-At the hotel rooftop. - Says he.

-Qué coincidencia! (What a coincidence!) - Says she.

And yes, that's exactly what I thought.

The man looks at us and opens his mouth ready to speak.

-So, you like... do her makeup? How you say it? You're makeup artist?

-Yes, exactly. - I've finished, my girl is ready.- Don't kiss too many people or we'll need to use one that is kissproof. - I say to Blanca.

She nods happily.

-And... come here because the person that does your makeup is going to kill us. - I gesture to the man to come a little closer and he slowly approaches me, I put one of my hands on his chin like I did with Blanca and with the other one I remove the red lipstick on his face with a wet wipe.

-My name is Jere, Jere Pöyhönen.

-Im (Y/N) (L/N) - I smile and for a second we make eye contact with my hand still on his face.

-Nice to meet you.

We take some distance.

-Nice to meet you too...

At that moment some of the photographers started to shout and I saw a very beautiful woman with very long dark hair coming our way.

Loreen. Some of them screams her name.

Maybe I don't know who the rest of the contestants of the other countries are but I definitely know who SHE is.

When she reaches us Blanca says goodbye to me squeezing my arm for a second and Jere gives me a smile before turning away.

They salute each other and the photographers start to take photos of them together.

I smile with satisfaction knowing that my girl is going to be perfect in those photos, and well... Jere too.

I watch them interact a little bit before going back backstage with the rest of my team.

...

The night keeps going, the presentations are over and the concert on the principal stage has started.

I can see and hear on the tv screens that we have backstage every artist playing their song.

Meanwhile I decided to sketch a little in my sketchbook. I always liked to draw and it is useful for my work. People tell me that I'm good but I don't think that is true.

I drawed some of the boys of "Joker out" I think it's the name, Alika and Gustaph. When I was shading Gustaph's hat the next song hitted me with very low notes and a deep voice. It immediately catches my attention and looking directly to the screen I can see Jere.

"Käärijä" it's the name I read on the scenario's screen. His artistic name I suppose.

Now that I saw him I cannot pay attention to anything else and I keep watching the rest of the performances.
