The roar of the crowd at Crypto.com Arena was deafening as you stood backstage, your heart pounding in rhythm with the bass of your opening song. Your fingers tightened around the microphone as your eyes flicked to the monitor, watching the packed house of fans waving their hands and holding up signs with your name. Tonight was special — your biggest show yet, performing in front of a sold-out crowd in you first night in Los Angeles. But one thing made it even more special: Jack, your boyfriend, was here, fresh off the mound from last night’s Dodgers game, standing quietly by the wings. From your view you could already see all the fans dying and taking pictures of him, at the fact of him being there.
You took a deep breath, exhaled, and stepped onto the stage as the lights dimmed. The opening notes of your song "Juno" filled the arena, the spotlight catching your smile as you raised your mic to your lips.
"You make me wanna make you fall in love Oh, late at night, I'm thinking 'bout you, ah-ah Wanna try out some freaky positions?"
The words rolled off your tongue effortlessly as the crowd sang along, their voices blending with yours.
Jack watched from his hidden vantage point, his arms crossed and a small, proud grin tugging at the corners of his mouth. You were mesmerizing, a star in every sense of the word, and tonight, you were shining brighter than ever.
"Have you ever tried this one?"
The music slowed for a moment, and the crowd screamed in anticipation. The familiar beat picked up, and a mischievous smile tugged at your lips. You darted toward the center of the stage, where the heart-shaped platform awaited.
Without missing a beat, you ran and half-walked across the stage, just like you always did. Fans knew it was coming, and their cheers grew louder.
With a quick speed, you launched into one of your infamous poses. You got on your knees, pulled your hair back and held the mic right above your lips, mimicking you giving head.
The crowd erupted.
You held the pose for a beat longer, tilting your head back and flashing a radiant smile. The arena shook with applause and adoration. From the corner of your eye, you caught Jack laughing and shaking his head with an affectionate smile, his eyes locked on you like you were the only person in the world.
The final chords of your ending song played, and you stepped back to the mic, breathing heavily but grinning from ear to ear. "Thank you, Los Angeles! You guys were absolutely amazing" you shouted, your voice soaring above the noise.
The crowd cheered louder, waving their arms and phones in the air.
Jack shook his head with a knowing chuckle as the lights dimmed.
When the last note of the show faded, and you finally walked backstage, Jack was waiting for you. His Dodgers cap was tilted backwards, and his eyes sparkled with pride.
"Not bad," he teased as you threw your arms around his neck, your adrenaline still pumping.
"Not bad?" you repeated, pulling back with a laugh. "I crushed it!"
"Yeah, you did." He wrapped his arms around your waist and kissed your temple. "But that pose? You’re really letting people know what we do."
You rolled your eyes playfully. "Oh, please Jack. It’s iconic. It’s history. I mean just think of all the TikToks of me doing that while you're in the crowd."
Jack raised his brows, a smirk tugging at his lips. "Oh, it’s something, alright."
You swatted his shoulder with a grin, and the two of you stood there, lost in each other while the echoes of the night filled the arena behind you.
