Chapter 8

The Billboard Music Awards

Remained two months until annual Billboard Music Awards. Of course I freaked out when Conor phoned me and told me that I will go with him there. He was cared about everything – from our arrival and the tickets to Las Vegas to the clothes, which we’re going to wear on the event. But the surprises weren’t finished yet. His manager and he decided to be the dancer on the Conor’s live performance on the show. Me! They were crazy!

The training started on the next day. I had to got up at 6 AM! 6 AM! The dance trainer was so cruel and strict. His name was Chris. He didn’t let me to drink sip of water 2 hours and this was the smallest problem. I used to dance when I was 14 to 16, but the training definitely wasn’t like this.

Maybe at about 9 o’clock Conor and the crew came. My first thought was *Really Con?! Why you came with the boys?! To watch together how much I suck?*

Conor came to me and kissed me. This was the first time I taking a breath for 3 hours. Then I started walking toward the boys to hug them, but I heard that strong voice.

“Get your ass back in here Geri! You’re here to dance not to give hugs!” the trainer said.

*Fu*ck you Chris!* I said to myself but I didn’t pronounce it aloud. I came back and again started dancing. The crew behind me started clapping and repeat:

“Go Geri! Go Geri! Go Geri!” but I didn’t have time to turn to said “Thank you guys!”

And after 5 hours non-stop dancing it was time for a break. Yes! Finally! It was Conor’s turn and yep – he was definitely better than me.

 

Remained only one week until the event. The dance was completed, the tickets and the clothes were bought, the hotel rooms were reserved.

And finally it was time to go. I was pretty excited and the others too. We were with Alex McDonald and Jack. It’s always so funny with them.

On the airport one guy who I have only seen on Conor’s skype video chats with him met us. It was Anth!

“Welcome to Las Vegas bitchezzzz!” he said with a big smile.

It was amazing to saw how Conor hugged his best friend. They weren’t saw each other since maybe 1 year.

Anth sent us to the hotel and then we all went out. Las Vegas baby! That place is magnificent! No matter where you turn your head you see only skyscrapers, casinos, gorgeous cars, famous people and again skyscrapers.

On the following night was the show. We came there at 6 PM and 2 hours we were standing on the red carpet where the photographers were taking pictures of us. Me and Conor gave some interviews and the main question was “How is your relationship?”.

After that we went backstage where we had to dressed up for the live performance. I was shaking of unrest, but Conor took me in his arms and said that everything is going to be all right. Right before we went to the stage we kissed. That was what each of us needed.

When the song finished and all of the lights turned on. All of the audience were on feet  and applauded us. I just can’t explain that sense which I felt at this moment. Me and Conor smiled to each other, hugged and then kissed. It was magical.

After that was the part of the ceremony. Conor won in 5 categories. That was amazing success for him.

In his speech about the first award he thanked to his family, his friends, the crew, the mayniacs, but there was one part which moved me deeply.

“And in the end I want to thank to one of my best friends and amazing person about everything she has done for me. That is my girlfriend Geri. I love you so much and I want you all to know that I would never give up her! Thank you!”

When he came back to our table, I hugged him and whisper:

“Thank you Conor! About everything!”

He smiled with his sweet baby smile and kissed me.

“I love you girl!” he said after that.

“You already said that!” I laughed.

“I will repeat it to you to the rest of my life!” he answered.

I smiled and then said:

 “I love you too!”
