Today is a big day. Not so much for me but for my best friend. The Grammys are today and Taylor is nominated for seven categories, how crazy! I hope she wins at least one of them because she has a special announcement tonight.
As we were getting ready together Taylor got a call for Travis, which of course distracted her from our conversation. I wasn't mad about it since he made Taylor really happy and that's all I want for my best friend, a happy relationship. She ended up putting him on speaker phone since the make up artist and hair stylist were complaining that her phone was in the way.
Taylor's outfit tonight is a massive easter egg for her new album and music video for the lead single. I hope everyone loves this album because there is so much meaning behind all of the songs. I've heard the whole album and it's one hundred percent in my top five. It's crazy how much has happened these past two years because if most of that happened didn't happen then this album wouldn't be a thing.
I'm quite nervous as this is my first time at Grammys since Taylor would always bring one of her parents or boyfriends as her plus one. When she asked me to come I was shocked because she had never asked me to come as her plus one before for anything. Tree, Taylor's publicist, had told us that we would be sitting with Jack Antonoff, Taylor's record producer and good friend.
The time for us to leave eventually came around and I was super excited but a bit nervous at the same tine for some weird reason. Me being nervous was unusual because I am so used to big crowds now but for some reason there was this tiny feeling inside of me that something was going to happen and I had no clue if it was good or bad.
We're currently sat in the car and I'm looking outside the window whilst my leg is bouncing up and down quickly. Obviously Taylor noticed and questioned if I was okay, "Are you alright, Y/n?"
"Of course, why wouldn't I be?" I ask as soon as she finished her question. "Because your leg is bouncing and that only happens when you're extremely nervous, which may I add, is hardly ever." "Fine. I have this nervous feeling inside of my stomach for some reason and I don't know if it's because something bad is going to happen or something good." "That's strange but if anything bad were to happen, we would be safe. I couldn't imagine anything bad happening obviously, it's most likely something good." After she says that I decide not to respond since this nervous feeling is taking over my whole body.We finally arrive and get out the car. There is so many people here, maybe even more than at fashion shows and that is a lot. Tree leads us over to the red carpet for Taylor to have photos taken. Me and Tree are watching her from the side and she looks stunning.
Taylor motions for me to join her on the carpet for some photos with her. As I'm walking over I spot two men on Taylor's left. I find myself looking at the one with freshly buzzed hair. My eyes don't want to direct off of him but I had finally reached Taylor so I had to look at the cameras and pose.
After a few minutes we head off the carpet and I spot the two men chatting to each other. I try my best to keep looking at Taylor since she's talking but my eyes can't help but invert to the gorgeous man with chocolate button eyes. He must've felt me staring as he looked at me so I quickly moved my eyes back to my best friend.
The night goes on and I, not too long ago, spotted the men at the table in front of us. Luckily the weren't facing us because then I would've been extremely embarrassed.
I decided to let loose a bit and have some champagne since it's my best friends big night. They were announcing winners to all of categories and Taylor had unfortunately not won an award yet. They are now onto Album Of The Year and me and Taylor are holding hands hoping she wins. When I hear her name get called out I'm not surprised. I give her the biggest hug and notice the two men are looking at us clapping for her.
Taylor is up on the stage along with Jack since he helped with the album. Midnights is such a beautiful record and is one of my favourites. Whilst standing on the stage holding her thirteenth Grammy, Taylor makes the announcement that her new album The Tortured Poets Department comes out April nineteenth.
It's now the after party and we're both getting a bit too tipsy for our publicists likings. I spot the man again and see he's already looking at me. He whispers to the blonde man he's been with the whole time. Once they've finished whispering the man comes over to me.
"Hi, I'm Joseph, Joseph Quinn." He says with the most beautiful British accent I have ever heard. "I'm Y/n, Y/n Y/l/n." "Nice to meet you Y/n. Just thought I'd pop over and say hi since I've seen you looking at me multiple times through the evening." "Oh um, yeah, of course. I'm sorry about that by the way. I'm no creep or stalker." "Didn't think you would be." He laughs. "I've been looking at you too by the way. You're beautiful." "Thank you. You're handsome and you have such beautiful chocolate button eyes." "Thanks. I never knew someone so famous would ever look at someone like me."
That sentence caught me off guard. Does he think just because I'm popular I wouldn't look at him. I don't care if someone's famous, all that matters is that I love them. I've seen him before and he is famous because of his role as Eddie Munson in Stranger Things season four.
"What do you mean?" "Well, you're a world-famous model and I'm just me. I'm an actor who grew over night in 2022. Not many people like me anymore since I've gotten roles in things and have been ruining big tv shows and movie franchises." "You're completely wrong. Yes you grew over night but that's because everyone fell in love with Eddie Munson and found out you're the actor. Even I fell in love with him. You haven't ruined anything it's just haters trying to get in the way of your career." "Haters gonna hate, right." He says jokingly about my best friends song lyrics. Joseph really knows how to make me laugh.
We spend a few hours talking until Taylor comes over and told me that Tree wants us to head out. Disappointment grew inside of me as I have to say goodbye to Joseph and I really don't want to. I don't know how but I think I'm already falling for this man.
Me and Joseph decided to exchange numbers so we can keep in touch and try hang out in our free time. Oh how I would love to hang out with him all the time.
Taylor and I get back to our hotel and go to our conjoined rooms. I'm getting ready in my bathroom when I get a message from a UK number. That must be Joseph, I think to myself.
I enjoyed tonight, can't wait
till we hang out next.Same here. I'm really
looking forward to it,
it better not be too long
of a wait.Oh it won't be. I can't
keep away from you for
too long.Not can I. I hate to end
our conversation but I'm
really tired and need some
sleep.I should probably head
to bed too, goodnight,
beautiful.Goodnight, handsome.
That night I fell asleep dreaming about the man I've fallen completely head over heels for. It was enchanting to meet him.
