Wrong Queen, Scott (A PTX Fanfic)

Before I upload the last chapter tonight, let me send out a special dedication to @mylittlecittys ♥

Hope everyone enjoys!♥

CHAPTER 6

Everyone was filled with excitement. We sang the next song, Love Lockdown and that one too received a great response. We started our second last song, Valentine.

Suddenly, Scott walked down the stairs, off the stage. I was a little distracted by what was going on. I watched, everyone did, as Scott went to the audience. He held his hand out for the pretty reception girl (I really need to learn her name). They walked back up the stage and she danced with Scott. She was quite good.

We were done singing and she we all bowed and hugged… yet another great response from our audience.

“For our last song,” Scott said into the mic, “we want to dedicate this one to Elsa here… and this last song is called ‘Love you long time’” I froze right there and then. Love you long time was MY song...

The real reason why we were performing there came back to my mind. Elsa… The pretty reception girl was Elsa. I looked at Scott and all I saw in his eyes was love. It didn’t make sense to me. 5 days… That’s all it took for him to ‘love’ her. How?

I felt like breaking down and crying right there and then, but I had to be professional so I didn’t. Scott held her hand and they were both so happy… I could never compete with such.

That last song was my poorest performance ever.

We cleared off stage and we watched as Scott and Elsa walked hand in hand towards the foyer. Mitch, Avi, Kevin and I walked towards the gate where we met up with Scott and Elsa there.

“So… where to now?” Elsa said to break the silence and I just gave her a look. Forward much?

“We head home…” Scott said and all I wanted to do was smile.

Africa was great and all before we had a lovesick Scott; now I couldn’t wait to get out of the continent. Elsa looked like she was about to break down and cry.

“No!” she shouted at the verge of tears, “Don’t you dare leave me!”

Thats what happens when you get attached to people you hardly know. Did she honestly think Scott would leave the fabulous American life and come raise baby tigers and cows with her in Africa – drop his career? She needs to get realistic.

The school bell rang and suddenly everyone was circled around Elsa and Scott. All the girls were jealous of Elsa – myself included. Another boy stood next to me and he looked like his voice would turn green from jealousy.

Wait… why would he be jealous…?

“You don’t seem too happy with this…” I smiled at him. He wore a thick pair of glasses, but I could see that behind the nerdy look lied a very cute pair of eyes.

“Yeah… well I can’t compete with her favorite singer of all time. I’ll just stay as Sky, the best guy friend, forever…” I gave him a side hug for comfort and we both turned to see what was going on.

Elsa was on her knees in front of him and I was surprised because she didn’t seem like the type to be on her knees. ;)

“Elsa Marcus,” Scott said softly as he put his hands on her shoulders. “I want to crown you.” He held his hand out to help her back up. “Crown you Queen of My Heart.”

He kissed her.

Right there in front of everyone… It might have been a soft peck on her lips but it was a kiss nonetheless.

I understood exactly how Sky felt. We would be stuck in the friend-zone while they were enjoying life. I turned to Sky and gave him my number. “Call me anytime you ever feel like you need to talk,” I said, “I know exactly how you feel.”

Scott wiped the tears off her cheeks and walked out of the gate with a smile I’d never seen before. He stopped outside the gate and looked back at her. We followed him and couldn’t help but notice the water in his eyes. That was when I realized I had to accept it.

I had lost him.

I wasn’t the queen anymore.

It would be hard, but I had to accept it.
