Somebody else M.H

1.

Finally it was the night i had been waiting for, the brits.After my 3rd album,butterfly wings,came out the amount of success i had got was incredible, i was nominated for 4 brits i couldn't believe it.
While sitting in the makeup chair having the finishing touches put on my eyeshadow i can't help but feel overwhelmed never in a million years did i think this would happen.
"U nervous?"tommy speaks up stopping the thoughts from swimming around your head any longer
"A little but it's not like I've never done this before"I said trying to calm myself down more than anything
I'd won 2 Brits for my debut album and got a nomination for my 2nd but this time I've got to perform as well ,anything could go wrong.
"You will smash it just believe in yourself"
"Thanks Tom"
An usher appears at the door while Tommy is doing his last finishing touches on my look. I'm wearing a silver Versace gown. It's gorgeous and would look stunning on the red carpet.
"Thank you Tommy, I'll see you later"I said Whilst walking toward the usher
"Love you stop worrying you'll be great"he said in his usual positive manner
Walking through the corridors i cant help but feel the nerves bubbling inside of me threatening to spill out at any moment
Once i got outside and into the black suv I pulled out my phone to see a couple of messages one of them was from Elena my best friend wishing me luck the other from my brother telling me it was gonna be amazing and wishing me luck and another from my publicist telling me she was already at the o2 I quickly replied with an okay see u soon and by the time I looked up we were just outside the o2
I gave myself a minute just before getting out the car to calm down and then swung the door out my publicist was right there she quickly walked up to me interlinking my arm with hers she smiled warmly at me
"Only 2 interviews today, then u have to rush inside to get ready for ur performance u ready?"
Despite my nervous approach to the whole evening I was buzzing and couldn't wait
"Course,alright I'll see you at the end of the carpet"
She smiled and waved whilst walking into a different direction
Within minutes it was my turn my tall silver heels stepped onto the bright red carpet and bright lights flashed in my direction, if media training taught me anything it was to stay calm and collected so despite the photographers saying my name and trying to get my attention which was all very overwhelming I stayed calm making sure they had enough time to take a good picture
As quickly as I was on it I was off it walking towards Maria my publicist
"U alright?"
"Yea I'm all good where am I going now?"I replied adrenaline pumping through me
"Just over there" she said pointing towards a man and women holding heart uk microphones
"Hello, look who we have hear"the women said looking down the camera
" it's y/n y/l/n" the man said
"Hey it's nice for u to have me"I said already feeling nervous for whatever they were going to ask me
"I mean we were dying to" "your nominated for 4 Brits and I believe this is your first time performing you must be so excited" the women said
"Yes I can't wait it's gonna to be a great performance and it's always so cool to play at the o2" I said laughing nervously at the end causing them to laugh
"if you win tonight how are you going to celebrate?"the man asked
"Ooooo" I said in thought
"I will probably get a takeaway and a glass of wine"
They laughed at my response
"No afterparty" the man said again
"No no not for me I've got to get an early flight Tomorrow" I said even tho it was a complete lie and I just wanted to chill cause afterpartys are too long and my social battery was hanging on by a thread as it is
Just as i finished my sentence someone bumped into me causing me to jump forward almost falling onto the interviewers
"Shit sorry luv u alright?"he said a concerned look on his face waiting for me to reply
"Yea yea I'm alright" I smiled at him he smiled back at me
"Sorry for interrupting it was nice to meet you I'll let u carry on"he said quickly and without even a name he moved back into the crowd heading for the doors to go into the venue
I carried on with the interview and did the other one before entering the venue and getting ready backstage for my performance but still I couldn't stop thinking about this guy he left as quickly as he appeared but I couldn't stop thinking about his smile and his accent I couldn't figure out where abouts it was from but it was northern.

I could hear the presenter announce my name and I got on stage I performed my single body better and got off stage to congrats and smiles it was times like this that made me really thankful that my life is the way it is.After the performance I sat in my seat whilst awards were given out nothing really caught my eye until the nominees for best rock alternative album come up, it was that curly haired guy again and he was part of a band? From the looks of it he looked like the front man
"And the winner is..."
"The 1975 with a brief inquiry into online relationships"
I looked around trying to spot the man and could see a group of people standing up congratulating one another and they started to walk up to the stage and there he was the shortest of the bunch he smiled that smile I couldn't stop thinking about. I couldn't really remember what he said all I know is he kept the speech short and sweet. The next category was one of mine I had won a Brit earlier on and lost one but I didn't even think I was gonna win one so I wasn't bothered
"The nominees for best pop album are.."
A bunch of incredible albums by incredible artists flashed up on the screen I was tense,of course I wanted to win everyone does but my odds were close to none with people like ed Sheeran and dua lipa nominated. When my name was called out I felt eyes on me I just smiled whilst Maria squeezed my leg and smiled too.
"And the winner is..."
"Y/n y/l/n with butterfly wings"
I jumped up ecstatic hugging Maria so tight she could barely breath,she will always be one of my closest friends she is like a big sister to me always looking out and doing what is best for me. I walked towards the stage walking through a sea of people until my eyes locked with a pair of brown ones he smirked at me and continued clapping causing me to look down I needed to know his name I couldn't stop thinking about him I got up to the stage and thanked everyone who needed to be thanked and kept it short and sweet as I had already said everything I needed to say the first time. As I got off stage I made sure to go back the way I came
"Hey congrats I've heard the album it's great it definitely deserved that"
"Thank you I'm y/n" I said looking into his eyes
"Matty" he answered, finally I can put a name to the face
"It's nice to meet you properly" I said laughter apparent in my voice
He giggled and said "yea it is u going to any party's later?"
and as much as I wanted to say yes I know I wouldn't be able to get through the night if I went so I went along with my lie
"No sadly I've got an early flight tomorrow"
"I'll just have to talk to u again before the awards are over"he said smiling at me
Just as I was about to say something Maria pulls me away
"There u are they are going live in a minute we need to get back to our seats"
"Ok"
"Bye it was lovely to meet you again"I said to Matty
He gave me a small wave and said goodbye
I won my last nomination best artist surprisingly and took some photos with the awards and then left to get a kebab and go home. Once I was home I went through my messages all congratulating me but one stuck out to me it said @trumanblack has followed you I clicked on it since it intrigued me. After a bit 0f investigating I found out it was Matty I followed him back and followed the 1975 and all the other member I had only seen briefly.before calling it a night and going to bed as it was half 12 and I was knackered.
