The Moment I Knew. // Chandler Riggs Fanfiction.

Chapter 28

I woke up at around 9 am. I took a shower and got dressed. The promotion team sent me some clothes I had to wear for the music video, and I happen to really LOVE them. I put on a metallic crop top with beads around the neck, a metallic skirt, metallic shoes and a ring. I styled my hair and applied some eyeliner and some matt red lipstick. I walked downstairs, and saw that my parents had a gift for me.
"What is this?" I asked.
"A gift for you, open it." My mom said.
I tore off the paper and saw it was a guitar case.
"Omg, is this real?" I asked they nodded.
I opened the case, it was a sparkly guitar, it was covered in like rhinestones, a lot.
"THANK YOU!" I screamed.
I hugged them.
"This one goes in my collection, I mean my first one, is stunning, this one is basically my personality and the twelve snared one gives the best sound ever!" I said.
"I am going to play all three of them today." I said. I walked upstairs and did my other two guitars into their cases and walked downstairs again. I started practicing the song in the living room.
-2 pm-
I heard the doorbell and I opened the door Chandler and Rachel and their families were standing there. I obviously hugged Rachel first. And then Chan I gave him a kiss on the cheek. I saw Grayson i hugged him and he whispered something into my ear "It's better like this."
"I know." I whispered back. I hugged their parents and showed everybody around the house.
"Guys I have to show ya'll my new guitar!" I opened the case.
"OMG! That totally reflects your personality!" Rachel said.
"I said the exact same, that's why we are best friends." I said.
"It is beautiful, matches your outfit." Chan said with a little grin.
"We have to go now." I said.
"Where are we exactly going?" Grayson asked.
"Well, I am giving a performance, and it is going to be filmed and they are going to make a music video out of it!" I said.
I grabbed my guitars but I couldn't hold them all. Chandler grabbed two "Let me help you."
"Thanks." I said while biting my lip a little.
-at the cafe-
There was already a line with my fans and they were dressed! So cute.
"So we have soundcheck first and then we'll film already some stuff." I said to everybody. We practiced the song and we started filming some stuff. I had a shot where I was standing in between my parents and that we were hugging. I had a shot with Rachel and me that we were hugging and we made hearts with our hands, I was the right half and she was the left half. I had a shot with Chan and me we were like smiling and holding hands and I turned my head a gave him a kiss on the cheek Chan turned a little red when I pulled away I made a heart with me hand and smiled kinda sassy. And we had a shot of my parents, Rachel Chandler, Grayson, their parents and me. We were saying Fearless. When we were finished with that I walked to Chan.
"That kiss is going to be in the video." I said.
"I'd rather have this one in the video." He said and kissed me.
"That's ok by me." I said. Everyone that came with me got placed in a special area. And I walked outside and saw the line.
"Hello guys." I said, everyone started screaming, some were even crying...
"I'll see you guys in 5 minutes!" I screamed and walked back in. Everyone got ready on their place and the fans came in. There was security, for you know maybe we get attacked or something, I don't know.
"Thank you for buying my tickets!" I said.
"I have a special announcement to make." I said.
It was dead silent "This is not just an ordinary performance, we are filming a music video for my new single FEARLESS!! What do ya'll think about that?!!" I said. Everyone started screaming.
"So let's start!" I said. I grabbed my first guitar I ever had.
"So this one is called Fearless." I said again.
We started playing and dancing, the fans sang with me the second chorus, they knew it by that time. When I made a heart with my hand they all started to do the same.
-when I finished performing-
"So if you are wondering what the hear means. It means t me when ya'll do it you give me love, power and strength to keep on going. I'd love ya'll to do it again for the last shot!" I said everyone did it and we filmed it. After performing I started signing some stuff and after that i said I wanted to record something for the ending, they let me.
"I really need this to be in the video with the last shot." I told the woman.
She gave me a mic and started recording.
"Being Fearless isn't being 100% unafraid. It's being terrified, but you jump anyways..." I said. After that we drove back to my place.
Chan, Rach, Gray and me walked to my room.
"I need a little help on this song." I said.
"And ya'll are going to help me." I said.
"So it's about being a brother, sister or being a parent and having a little son of daughter. I am working on it but, I don't know which feeling I have to put in it because I am alone." I said.
-after we finished writing-
"Guys, I couldn't finish it with your help." I said.
I turned on the tv and I let Chan and Gray play some video games in my room.
Rach and I walked downstairs. I grabbed my 12 snared guitar.
"Parents, us, the kids we wrote a song." I said.
"And we are calling it Never Grow Up." I said I started playing.

"Your little hand's wrapped around my finger
And it's so quiet in the world tonight
Your little eyelids flutter cause you're dreaming
So I tuck you in, turn on your favorite night light
To you everything's funny, you got nothing to regret
I'd give all I have, honey
If you could stay like that

Oh darling, don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up, just stay this little
Oh darling, don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up, it could stay this simple
I won't let nobody hurt you, won't let no one break your heart
And no one will desert you
Just try to never grow up, never grow up

You're in the car on the way to the movies
And you're mortified your mom's dropping you off
At 14 there's just so much you can't do
And you can't wait to move out someday and call your own shots
But don't make her drop you off around the block
Remember that she's getting older too
And don't lose the way that you dance around in your pj's getting ready for school

Oh darling, don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up, just stay this little
Oh darling, don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up, it could stay this simple
No one's ever burned you, nothing's ever left you scarred
And even though you want to, just try to never grow up

Take pictures in your mind of your childhood room
Memorize what it sounded like when your dad gets home
Remember the footsteps, remember the words said
And all your little brother's favorite songs
I just realized everything I have is someday gonna be gone

So here I am in my new apartment
In a big city, they just dropped me off
It's so much colder than I thought it would be
So I tuck myself in and turn my night light on

Wish I'd never grown up
I wish I'd never grown up

Oh I don't wanna grow up, wish I'd never grown up
I could still be little
Oh I don't wanna grow up, wish I'd never grown up
It could still be simple
Oh darling, don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up, just stay this little
Oh darling, don't you ever grow up
Don't you ever grow up, it could stay this simple
Won't let nobody hurt you
Won't let no one break your heart
And even though you want to, please try to never grow up
Oh, don't you ever grow up
Oh, never grow up, just never grow up."
I finished singing. The parents applauded.
"Thank you." I said.
-when everyone was about to leave-
"Rachel, next week sleepover." I said and gave her a big hug.
"Grayson, never grow up." I said while giving him a hug.
"Chandler, I see you Saturday, gonna miss you." I said.
"Gonna miss you too." He said I gave him a kiss. I waved everybody goodbye when they drove away.
I walked upstairs and gone through my old song books to see if there are any good songs that can go on the album. Oh I was right 2 unfinished songs, they were about being a fangirl / being in love with someone that is famous. I started editing those two songs and I just wrote them on my list for the songs that I am going to record Friday. I
After that I had dinner and then I walked back upstairs to get some sleep.
