Life Is A Rollercoaster (Ronan Keating / Boyzone / X Factor) fan fiction

Fourteen

Vicky

I was almost late meeting Ronan in the underground staff car park where Brian had directed him.

I'd spent far too long looking in the mirror, scrutinising my reflection despairingly. I was sure I looked awful from lack of sleep, thankfully he didn't seem to think so. Or if he did, he was too polite to say anything.

"Wow Vic," he hesitated as if he wasn't sure. "You look amazing, even better than last night"

"Really? Thank you"

"You know. You don't look so bad yourself" I sounded braver than I felt. I swallowed nervously, my heart was racing. 

How the hell could one man be so damn sexy?

He took my arm and led me over to his waiting car. The BMW was very impressive. It looked new, and I was no expert on Irish number plates, but 'RK-D-03031977' seemed personalised to me. I guessed the 'D' was for Dublin. 

He opened the door for me and helped me in, checking I was okay before pulling away.

"Brian didn't give you any grief did he?" I asked as he exited the car park.

"Nah, but he did wonder what I was doing here"

"Really?"

Ooops.

"It's okay. I told him I came back for something I'd forgotten last night" he winked at me.

I raised my eyebrow at him. "You didn't have to do that t's fine honestly. You have to come here everyday, I don't want them all talking about you"

"Besides I don't think he believed me"

"Really?"

"Yeah he mumbled something about me being a fast mover"

I laughed at this. Did Brian seriously think that Ronan was interested in me?

In my dreams maybe.

As I'd discussed with Sophie last night, he could have any girl in the world.

Oh Brian! Bless you.

I couldn't help but laugh. "Are you laughing at me?"

"No! Sorry I just can't stop now" I gasped.

"I'll get it out of you somehow" he said with a grin.

"So Vic, where do you wanna go anyway?"

"Ooh I don't know, I thought maybe you would surprise me...."

"Yeah? It's a good job I did my research then"

"Really?"

"Yep, I thought we could go the Lava Lounge. I thought it was well suited to a sophisticated lady like yourself"

"Wow, I love that place, but won't we get harassed there?"

"Nah it'll be quiet, and I don't care anyway"

"Are you sure Ronan?"

"Yes! Now shush and call me Ro"

"Ro?" I repeated.

"Yes, now shush I'm trying to concentrate" he grinned.

Concentrate? I raised my eyebrow at him again. I'm sure he'd spent more time looking at my legs in the past five minutes than he had looking at the road. I suddenly felt self-conscious. 

I tried to pull my dress down slightly without drawing attention to what I was doing. It wasn't that I minded

Ronan Keating checking out my legs... It just reminded me that my skirt was probably too short.

"You okay?" he sounded slightly concerned.

"Yeah I'm fine" I smiled at him.
