Never Be Embarrassed (Josh Balz)

Adella's POV

"What do you mean that you're embarrassed to be seen with me? We have been together for a year and you weren't embarrassed then." I said. "Well now I am. You are so dark and scary. People don't like you because of the music you listen to. I love the old you. When you were popular. I thought this was a phase. You need to change." My boyfriend Neil yelled at me. "You know what I don't need you. Who the fuck are you to tell me what I can and can't do or say. No thanks. Fuck you." I said. I ran away crying. I headed into the palladium and hid by the stage crying. I'm glad no one is here now to see me like this. I felt someone rubbing my back. I looked up and saw a man with pretty gray blue eyes. "I saw what happened. Are you okay?" He asked. "Ya, I should be. I wasn't really in love with him in the first place. He didn't accept me." I said. He smiled at me softly. "I like the song lyrics you quoted by the way. And never be embarrassed by who you are because you are unique and special in your own way." He said. "Thanks, I really like Motionless In White." I said. "Ya, their keyboardist is really sexy." He said. I laughed. "I don't know. I've never seen a picture of them." I said. He smiled. "Well then, I think the keyboardist thinks you are pretty." He said. I blushed. "Wait, are you Josh Balz? I asked. He nodded. "Well, thank you for comforting me but I guess I should go. You're probably really busy." I said getting up and heading to the door. "Wait." He said grabbing my wrist. He pulled me back and kissed me. "Will you go to dinner with me tonight?" He asked. I nodded. He smiled and told me to meet him here at 7. I went home and curled my long black hair and took my purple contacts out to reveal my ice blue eyes. I only put on some mascara and slipped on a strapless short dress. The bust was black and the skirt was a peachy pink. I slipped on my black heels and grabbed my clutch. I locked my apartment and threw my keys in my clutch along with my phone. I headed back to the venue and saw Josh waiting with a motorcycle. He smiled and kissed my cheek. "You look stunning." He said. I thanked him and hopped on the back. He took me to a nice Italian bistro for dinner then we went dancing. I was having a blast. When we were done he took me home. "I would like to see you again Adella." He said. "I would too but maybe next time you could be my boyfriend." I said. "Hey no fair. I was going to ask you first." He said. I laughed and kissed him. "So we're dating?" I asked. He nodded and kissed me goodnight. I waved to him as he left. I believe I am in love with Joshua Balz.
