Destination Us (Lolena)

Chapter 3

I watched as she timidly looked at the floor beneath her feet before bringing her gaze back up to wave at the crowd. I couldn't stop staring at her, she was more beautiful than what I had imagined. The pictures in the magazines did not do her the slightest bit of justice. As she walked closer, I forced himself to stand, feeling weak on the knees caused by the sight of her. The corners of my lips twitched up in a nervous smile when she finally stood before him. "Hi, it's so nice to finally meet you." She said, her arms wrapping around me. I mmediately returned the gesture, resting my hands on her waist. When I realized just how fast my heart was beating, I pulled away from the hug- not wanting her to realize the effect she had on me.

I had no idea why I was feeling the way I was in her presence. I tricked myself into believing my nerves were caused by the fact she was so famous and a million people were watching their interaction behind their televison screens.

He waited for her to sit down before sitting himself, followed by Ellen. "So Logan, is Selena as beautiful in person as you thought she was?" Ellen teased, smiling at the both. Logan chuckled nervously, the palm of his hand rubbing the back of his neck. "Very beautiful, Yes. It's great to finally meet her. I feel as though i know her from all that I've heard about her." He glanced Selena quickly before turning to face Ellen. He took a deep breath, wanting nothing more than to calm his nerves.

Logan couldn't help but wonder how Selena was feeling at the moment. Was she as as nervous he was? Was her own heart beating at the same rapid pace as his own? He highly doubted so. Chances were the media over exaggerated what she had said about him and being on the show with him was a fanservice.

"Selena, care to respond?" Ellen asked her, her typical smirk on her features. She was enjoying this a little too much.

Selena's chuckle sent chills up my spine, causing me to shift my body uncomfortably- trying to get rid of the sensation. "I'm a big fan of Logan, I've seen a lot of his movies! So it's really nice to meet him at last." She replied, glancing at me a couple a times as she spoke. My gaze remained locked on my feet, trying to hide the small smile that tugged on my lips.

"You guys would make such a cute couple." She stated, her smirk now replaced with a grin. "Don't you agree?" She asked, turning to face the crowd. The crowd went wild at what Ellen had asked.

Logan chuckled lightly, turning his head slightly to look at Selena. To his suprise, she was looking right back at him. Logan's blue eyes locked on her brown and he refused to look anywhere eyes. He was mesmerized with her eyes. Looking at her was like looking at angel fallen from heaven.

When the cheers of the crowd died down, she smiled at him and teared her eyes from him to look at Ellen. He couldn't help but feel slightly dissapointed. What the hell was going on with him?

"That's all the time we have today! Remember to love and respect one another. We'll see you tomorrow!" Once Ellen finished speaking, I couldn't help let out a sigh of relief as I rubbed my sweaty hands against the fabric of my jeans.

Ellen smiled at us and said her goodbyes before being dragged by someone to someplace backstage. Right when I was about to say something to Selena, someone from the shows team interrupted them by saying that they should go backstage now. Logan nodded and stood up right after Selena did.

From the second I sat next to Logan , I sensed that he was compeltly uncomfortable with the whole situation and for some reason that didn't make me feel very good. Some part of me hoped he would be nervous to meet. Instead, he barely made.any eye contact with me. That was all of course before Ellen asked the audience what they thought of us a couple and Logan returned by gaze. I felt chills run up and down my spine as outr eyes remained fixated on eachother.

The rest of the interview went by smoothly and I was kind of grateful. I wanted to have the opportunity to speak to Logan privately without having cameras broadcasting their interaction to millions of people.

When the man suggested for them to go backstage , I knew that was my chance to have an actual conversation with Logan. I wrapped my arms around my figure as I walked backstage followed closely by Logan himself. Being so close to him caused butterflies in my stomach and that slightly worries me.

"It was really nice to meet you Logan." I spoke, glancing at him before returning my focus before me.  

"I feel the same way, Selena." He replied,. Hearing her name coming from his voice caused the butterflies in my stomach to erupt. God, what the hello was happening to her?

All I could is nod my head, trying to hide the effect Logan had on me. I didn't want to creep him out more than I already had.

| LOGAN |

Seeing her act so innocent and shy caused a smile to tug on my lips. For some reason I thought she would' be confident and talkative. When I first laid eyes on her, I knew I wanted to get to know her better. Now,how the hell was I going to make that happen?

"Hey listen, are you doing anything after this?" I asked, stuffing my hands into the front pockets of my jeans. As I soon as I said that, I shook my head at my words. How could I be so stupid!? Of course she had something to do, she's fucking Selena Gomez. Se probably had a meeting with the president or going to have tea with the queen!

"I'm sorry, that was a stupid question. You probably have a really busy schedule and being here probably just made this difficult for you. I'm really sorry." He apologized, unable to stop his word vomit.

His eyebrows furrowed when he heard her laughter. "Logan, I'm actually doing anything after this. Why are you asking?" She replied, a huge smile on her face.

I took a second to stare at her for a second because she looked incredibly beautiful at that moment. Her smile washed away all my nervousness and caused me to return her smile.

"I was wondering if you wanted to go to this really good diner that's near here. You know, just to get to know each other better?" I braced myself for rejection . I don't know what made me think she would ever want to go with me anywhere.

Imagine my surprise when she nodded her head and said she would love to.

"Let's go, then." I said with my heart beating faster than ever before.
