Ela's pov

Due to my performance on the concert my song has gotten a lot of attention.

Tom's pov

Ela has been really busy since the performance. She had to quit her job. I have been helping her all I can.

However I can't stop thinking about her parents. She has to miss them and maybe now that she will be more known maybe they will see it and try to contact her. But does she want them to?

We are finally in bed after a long day of work.
"Ela?" I ask her quietly. "Mhm" she murmurs back. "What about" I start but I don't know if I can finish that sentence. I don't want to upset her. "What about what" she asks after the moment of silence turning to face me. Looking into my eyes. I just stared into her eyes. "You can tell me" she says. "Anything really" she reassures me again. "Your parents" I say. I can see the change in her eyes but she doesn't change her face. "What about them?" She asks putting a fake smile on. "You don't have to smile" I say. "Sorry" she quickly says. I smile at her. "Don't you miss them or something" I tell her. "It's-"
"It's complicated" she says. "And you can tell me all about it" I say. "I do miss them but they" she starts. "They weren't in their best state when I was there" she adds. I look at her confused. "Tell me" I say. "They were abusive nothing much" she says. I don't know what to say so I just wrap my hands around her and kiss her head.

"They might reach out when you are famous" I say. I hear her chuckle. "When I'm famous" she laughs. "What" I say. "I'm not going to be famous" she says. "Oh yes you are" I say to her. She just chuckles.

Next day

Ela's pov

Everything has been going well and busy, I have my first live performance for the television tomorrow, after that I have an interview.

I'm very nervous for the interview. I know they will ask about everything they will ask about Tom and I don't know what to tell them about him. I don't even know what we are.

I walk into the living room, Tom sitting on the couch doing something on his laptop.
He sees me coming, putting his laptop on the table. I sit on the couch next to him.
"Hey" he says. "Hey" I say back. "What's up" he says. "So I have an interview after the performance tomorrow" I say. "And they are definitely going to ask questions" I add. He nodds his head. "Questions about you" I finish. He smiles at me chuckling quietly. Then he suddenly pinns me down on the couch. Our hands together. "You're too cute" he says. I roll my eyes at him. "I'm serious Tom" I say. "What am I supposed to tell them" I ask. "That we are dating" he simply says back. "Are we?" I say. He looks almost hurt. "What do you mean?" He asks. "I mean we never made it oficial" I say. "I mean I get it" "I'm not really your stereotypical ty-" I say. "Stop" he says cutting me off. "I love you, you know that" he says. "You don't have to say it" "I told you I will wait" he adds. "Thank you" I say kissing him. He puts his head in the crook of my neck, kissing it. "We should go to sleep" "you have an important day tomorrow" he said into my skin. "Yeah" I say back.
