It was May 6th..which meant it was the day of the long awaited Met Gala.

Thankfully, me, Sabrina, Liv, Gracie and Becky got invited - Becky since she's dating Travis. You can't attend if you're not famous, except if you're dating someone who is..sly becky..

Austin was also invited. We made plans that we were going to show up separately and meet each other on the carpet. I was at my hotel room, and it was currently 6 am.

The makeup artist, designer and stylists all said that they'd be here at around 7 to start getting me ready..So until then, i was eating pizza while facetiming Austin.

"i dont know, i met your family, so you have to meet mine now" "When though? Like we honestly really don't have time

"i dont know, i met your family, so you have to meet mine now" "When though? Like we honestly really don't have time. We're not free on 11th, but you tell me when they're free so that we can visit" Austin thought for a while.

"What colour are you painting your toes?" "How do you know im painting my toes?", i asked him with a cocked eyebrow. "You're biting your lip like that, you do that when you're painting your nails, and i know for a fact you're not painting your fingernails, cause the stylist is gonna do that for you", he blurted out.

My mouth had dropped open. "Im in love with you Stella. I know these things", he smiled. "I think i fall in love with you like 10% more each day", i gushed.

Just then i heard a knock on my door. "Oh austin baby, i have to go, i think they're here" "OK, bye angel, see you there" "Byeee", i replied, disconnecting the call and running to the door.

8 HOURS LATER...

and i was all set-the dress had fit perfectly on my body thank god. It was a pink, long dress with a plastic like shine to it, complete with a fur hem on the bottom and the top of the dress, it was sleeveless and i had white elbow length gloves to go well with it.

I reached the venue on time, the lights blinding me, as i stepped out of the car and onto the red carpet.

"Omy goodness Stella over here" "Good Lord" "Is she even real?"

Cheers erupted as celebrities kept on keeping their foot on the carpet. I shielded my eyes and made my way in, posing for photos and trying to look photogenetic, when sabrina walked passed me and tapped my ass playfully, causing me to start laughing, before running off to hug her.

"OH MY GOD I MISSED YOU!" "its kinda your fault, you forgot you had friends when you got a boyfriend", she smirked. I put my hand on my chest, as if i got hurt and pouted. "How is he?", she asked. "GOD DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED I COULD GO ON FOR DAYSS, HE GETS ME FLOWERS, HE ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS MAKES TIME FOR ME AND MY FAMILY MY PARENTS LOVE HIMMMM!!! THEY SAY THAT WE'RE LIKE JAMES DEAN AND MARYLIN" "JESUS YALL ARE", she yelled in realization.

We took some pics together, after spotting liv, gracie and becky we all took group pics with them too. "Where is he though?", becky asked me. "We made a plan to come individually but meet on the carpet- "I see him!", liv yelled pointing at his direction.

I saw him, lifted my dress and started wobbling like a drunk horse while running towards him, falling into his arms. "stop being so late all the time", i whined kissing him. "Sorry angel", he kissed my forehead. "What do you think?", i asked giving him a twirl. "You look like a goddess", he complimented. "Austin, Stella over here", we heard Emma call.

"Oh my goodness, such an honor to meet the it couple of hollywood right now..history really does repeat itself", she laughed. "No actually we never even noticed it", i replied. "But maybe this guy had a plan", i teased throwing my shoulder around austin as he kissed my cheek. "Yeah, maybe, but i guess we'll never know", he said, winking to the camera and walking me towards the carpet as we took more photos.

Sometimes..fans are the worst

As we took pictures, i heard like 5 different people insult me and call me names-

"shes such a fat whore"

"she's a downgrade from vanessa"

"what a slut"

i was used to it to an extent, so despite my heart cracking, i kept smiling, i kept grinning. But austin sensed that something was off. "Baby is everything ok?" "Listen to the crowd", i replied still smiling. He listened for a minute or 2, and then took my hand, taking me inside. Once we were in, he hugged me tightly. I couldnt keep up, so i let it all out on austin's shoulder as he rubbed my back.

We were in a tiny hall, so there was low chance of anyone entering, but of course sab and becky found us.

"OMY GOD AUSTIN WHAT HAPPENED TO HER?", becky asked, with shock in her voice that i was crying at the met. "People called her names", Austin responded running a hand through my hair. "Oh, fuck them", sab cursed. "You know you're better than them", sab told me. "Come lets go to the bathroom", becky told me, taking my hand. Austin gave me one kiss on my hand before letting me go with them. "I'll be waiting in, ok?" "Yeah ok", i responded, sniffing.

~~~~~~~~~

"and then they said i was a slut, and im just like, fine if i am, then maybe it might be worth it for once, but its so hard", i stuttered while becky wiped my tears and sab did my makeup.

"But you aren't, you've literally dated like 2 guys", becky responded "But why does it even matter?", sabrina chimed in. "Honestly", i started, "I dont know"

"Well we better get going", sabrina ushered us out the door.

We walked out, holding hands, trying not to get lost in the sea of celebrities. I spotted austin talking with ryan reynolds and his wife blake. I stood there in shock, looking at how stunning blake was.

"Oh my goodness", blake screeched, waddling over to hug me. "You look like a princess!", she told me. "NO YOU LOOK LIKE A QUEEN, RYAN, YOU ARE A LUCKY MAN", i told him, and he nodded. "I could say the same thing for this butler", he joked, making me laugh and austin smirk.

Austin took my hand and placed his other on my waist. "How are you now, angel?" "Im better, better than i was, at least".

He led me to the front of the venue, which had the bar. "What do you want to drink sweetheart?" I thought for a moment. "A whiskey neat". Austin raised his eyebrows, as if he was impressed. "Two whiskey neats".

After around 15 minutes of talking and laughing, he finished his drink and stood up. "Love i need to go to the bathroom, i'll be right back ok?" I nodded. He kissed my lips and left.

i swirled the drink in the glass and picked on my nails when someone sat in the seat in front of me. I looked up thinking it was austin, but it wasn't.

"Hello, sweetheart", he greeted. It was Liam Hemsworth. I smiled. "Why are you all alone tonight?", he asked me, pulling the stool a bit closer. "Oh, im just waiting for my boyfriend", i responded uncomfortably. "oh austin is it?". I nodded, hoping he would get the hint and leave, but he just got closer to the point where he put his hand on my thigh. I shifted in my seat, pulling my leg away. "Can i get you a drink love? - "I'll do that for her thank you very much", Austin interrupted, glaring at him, as i breathed a sigh of relief. With that, Liam stood up and left. I also stood up cozied up to austin.

"You alright baby?" "Yeah..I told him that we were a thing- "shh, i know you did", he interrupted as he kissed the top of my head. "you want to dance?" I laughed, but it quickly faded. "Oh shit you're serious?", i responded while austin snickered, pulling me in.

As we danced, i kept thinking, i want to just dance with him forever, as the lights went out and as the room burned down...i just loved this man

i loved him too much

way too much
