The Pain of Loving a Celebrity

Chapter 3

 I came back stage after the concert,I was sweating a lot.It was always so hot and I didn't know why. As I stepped into my dressing room,my earbuds and microphone gone the boys were sitting on the couch talking at laughing. Charles was laughing the loudest and this made me smile. His dimples obvious and his blue eyes hidden. I decided to scare them so,I snuck up behind them.

"Boo!" I yelled.

The boys screamed and jumped off the couch. I laughed and fell over holding my stomach. Daniel shook his head and helped me up.

"Why'd you do that?" Cameron asked frowning.

"I'm sorry.I could miss the opportunity to scare you all."

"it is alright,Jessa," Matthew said hugging me.

I smiled and hugged him back.Looking over his shoulder,I saw Charles looking a bit angry. We then pulled away and I sighed. I was really tired and hungry.Cameron seemed to noticed so he grabbed my hand.

"How about you go change into sweats and we go back to our hotel?"

I nodded my head smiling tiredly. Charles came closer to me and hugged me tightly.

"Plus we can get food and watch a movie together?"

"Okay," I said starting to blush.

He then pulled away from our hug and walked out with the others. I grabbed my sweats that I had luckily been wearing before. I slipped them on and grabbed my phone. They were all waiting outside talking.

"Let's go," Daniel said heading towards the exit.

We all followed him.Everyone else except Charles was in front of me.As we walked out,I heard him talking to himself. I smiled and turned to look back at him.

"Are you okay?" I asked curiously.

"O-oh! I'm fine," he said with a stutter.

Odd.I giggle a bit and looked back in front of me.The others were already in the van waiting for us. I quickly ran over and got in.Charles followed and sat next to me. Daniel closed the door and the security guards drove off. The rest started to have their own conversations as Charles and I sat there in silence. I decided to break the slightly awkward silence.

"Hey Charles?"

"Yes,Jessa?"

I smiled a bit hearing him say my real name not my stage name.

"Maybe later we could hang out?"

"We are going to though."

I sighed and looked down.He did not want to be alone with me it seems like anyways.

"Oh! Yeah sure," he said figuring out what I meant.

Charles laughed a bit as we pulled into the back of the hotel. We all got out and made our way inside.

"Should we check in with our managers?" I asked in the elevator

Daniel nodded and we all just stood there quietly.I looked around and started to freak out.Claustrophobia was the worst.We were still on the 12 floor.Halfway to the 24th floor.

"Hey Jessa are you okay?" Matthew asked.

"I -I'm fine," I whispered leaning against one of the walls.

"You're really pale.Are you afraid of elevators?" Daniel said.

"Something like that."

I swear I felt the space get smaller.Sliding the wall I closed my eyes tightly and hugged my knees.

"Do not worry Jessa we are almost to our floor," I heard Cameron say near me.

I then felt one of them hug me.It was Cameron,I was sure of it. I hugged back and heard the doors open.Trying to stand,Cameron hugged me tighter and picked me up.He carried me out and followed the others towards my room.
