We were with his parents for a few days and everything was very correct and normal. They warmly welcomed me into the family. After that they had to go home so we walked them to the airport where I let Jenna have her private moment with them. As they left, they simply waved goodbye.
In the afternoon, Jenna received a notification reminding her of the awards show.
"I'm sure you'll win," I said confidently, "go for it!"—Well, we'll see, but it's a pride to be nominated.
She went shopping with Emma while I stayed at the hotel. He wanted her to live with her friends too. In addition, she needed to get me away from the spotlight a bit because she noticed the anguish and stress of it. Something I didn't want to tell Jenna because she already had enough of the poor thing with everything to overwhelm her with mine.When she came, she showed me the clothes that she had bought and everything looked great on her.
"We have to go buy you some clothes," she told me.-So that?—The prizes, or won't you come?
I was silent for a few seconds.
"I don't think I should go," I commented."Why?" She asked surprised, "Is something wrong?
Sitting on the bed, I made him stand next to me.
—Listen, if I don't go they'll ask you questions... but... if I go they'll be more aware of me. I think it's a moment for you, for your team and the chain—I started.—I understand what you mean, but you're my partner, of course they'll ask you—I saw her smile.—What I want to say is that you have worked very hard, a lot, to be at least among the nominees. I don't want my presence to overshadow your talent and you..." she kissed me tenderly and then with a little force.-Understand. But at least...will you cheer me up?" She asked looking at me with those pretty eyes."Of course, always.
We kissed and caressed for a while until dinner time. Then, already cold, she told me that she appreciated my gesture very much. That she was proud of me and that she loved me very much.The day of the gala arrived and Jenna was as beautiful as she could have expected. She left me impressed when I saw her dressed in that beautiful crimson dress. I fired her at the door of the hotel where the paparazzi didn't see me and she left in the shower of flashes.I stayed in the room, watching television. The celebrities arrived one after the other until it was Jenna's turn. Excited people cheered as she waved and signed some fans and took a photo, all with a huge smile.
"Jenna, the great star of Scream and Wednesday," said the reporter, "how does it feel to be here?""Well, very good, excited as a little girl.""Do you think you'll win the prize?""She's very close but I'd like to win it, that is, who doesn't want to win a recognition award for your role? — She laughed, revealing those white teeth.—To all this, and your partner?"He's stayed at home. I have tried to convince him but he did not stop saying that it is my moment and that of my team. He is very cute.
The host let out an oooh as she proceeded to ask her more about her private life and about me but she didn't give any answer.It was a bit boring for me since the talks lasted a long time but when it was time for the award for Jenna, I left it propped up so I could record it.
"And the person awarded is...Jenna Ortega!" She almost cried when she turned the camera on her and she got up from her seat to receive the award."Thank you all so much...I'm so excited...really." She had to wait for her excitement to wear off until she could continue amid applause. —Thanks to my team for giving me the opportunity, to the director, to my parents and... to my boy, for giving me that push that I needed—she said making me turn red—I love you.
The people exploded with emotion and applauded for a long time.Then the following prizes were given to the people. I made a small and short video call with her to congratulate her. She soon returned to the party and had a great time all night.In the wee hours of the morning, before she returned, they called me on the phone.
"Youn?"-Yes, it's me—I'm sorry to inform you that her parents have just passed away.She almost dropped the phone on the ground. That couldn't be happening.-What does it say?—Apparently they were in a car on their way to surprise her because of the messages we found on her phones. I'm sorry to have to tell you that we couldn't do anything for them.He told me that she had been hit, almost without suffering.
She ends up crying after hanging up. In my bed, remembering her faces, I couldn't stop crying as the tears soaked my face and the sheets. I tried to get up when I heard the keys, it was Jenna, I didn't want to make her night bitter.
"Yo?" she asked.
I couldn't get up and she found me like that, crying. She immediately approached me.
"Uh, uh...what's going on?""My parents... have died in an accident." She opened her eyes and hugged me all night while she covered my face with kisses.
I don't remember when I fell asleep. Only when she woke up, she was in her arms, she had no better refuge.I got up without waking her and went to the bathroom where I could wash her face. Her face was red and swollen from tears.All those moments that they had with my parents were formed in my mind, a strong pressure came to her chest and for a moment, she found me in the toilet vomiting and with my whole body trembling. He was on his knees, leaning against the lid.
"Dad... mom..." the eyes began to water again.
"Yu..."
I raised my head and there she was, worried, and beautiful despite the fact that she had just woken up.
"Shh," she gave me a little back rub of hers.
Thanks to her I was able to relax a bit. I wasn't hungry but I ate something for her. That morning I spent lying on her lap while she talked on the phone with friends and family about the award while she stroked my hair.
"You're safe with me," she told me, "I want to be your refuge.""You already are Jenna...you already are...
And so I stayed for a long time until mental exhaustion made me fall asleep where I felt safe from everything and felt that they loved me. And all thanks to her.
Now she only had to go say goodbye to my parents... one last time.
To be continue...
