Justin P.O.V

It was perfect. Me. Her. The music.

I could feel myself getting lost in her beautiful blue eyes. Leaning in slowly, she smiled. Our lips brushed together, so close to connecting, until Scooter Kenny and Brian the producer of MusicMadness, came thru the door. Natalie was shocked and quite scared by the look on her face. I could feel her beginning to squeeze my arm, hiding behind my shoulder.

'Justin?' Scooter looked at me confused.

'Natalie?' Brian was quite shocked at first and then his expression changed quickly into anger.

'I'm sorry sir, i-'

'No apologies Natalie, into my office!'

"But sir, its not wh-"

'NOW'

I felt her grip loosen as her jacket rubbed into me as she walked past keeping her head down in embarrassment, Nolan followed her giving me a sad smile as they left. Scooter turned back to me and held out his hands confused in what was happening.

'Justin, whats going on?'

"Scooter she cant get in trouble! It wasnt her fault!!"

'I dont want to hear it Justin, we're here to record your new track. Not to mess around. You know the rules?'

"But it's not her fault! Its mine! She came in here to just make music and i interrupted and i-"

'Justin! We're not here to make the ladies happy, or find someone new? We're here to record your new track. And if we dont do that today, then we're gonna delay and if we delay we have to cancel your free time in Miami. Do you wanna cancel?'

I hated it when he did this.

"No" i scoffed, looking out of the window folding my arms.

'Well then, lets get this single recorded and then we can go to the beach or something'

He tried to get me to smile but it wasn't working. Scooter left the room and went to get the paperwork from his car. I went over to the window and watched the surfers on the waves, the cars roaring down the roads, the girls on playing volleyball on the beach. I missed being a normal teenager.

'I know you miss it Justin, but this is your new life now buddy and thats just the way it is'

Kenny always gave good advice to me. He was forever there whenever i needed him.

"I know, i love this life! I just miss the little things about being a teenager"

'I know man, listen i need to help Scooter. You okay in here?'

"Sure"

I heard the door close as he left. It was quiet. Until i could hear Brians voice. I leaned against the wall to listen.

'I'm sorry sir. We heard Justin was in miami today and i am such a big fan of him and we just wanted to get a glance of him recording but he wasn't in there so we went into the room next door and there was a piano in there and i began playing and then Justin walked in and we played together and then i guess things just got a little out of hand...'

Her voice was so beautiful. It was silent for a few minutes until i heard him sigh.

'Natalie, i think we need to let you go'

He was firing her, fuck.

"Sir please, i need this job! My mum and brother already work so hard to keep us going and my mum works 2 jobs every day just to earn a little extra for us? Please sir, i'm begging you"

Just like my mom used to! Except her brother helped out. She was getting upset, i could hear it. I hated this.

I wanted to help, but i couldn't get involved and make it worse.

'I'm sorry Natalie'

I heard a sniffle and a small voice.

"It was a pleasure to work with you sir"

He was letting her go. No. I ran down the hall into the lift to find Scooter. I got to the bottom floor when i tried to find my phone. Shit. I'd left it on the window sill upstairs. I pressed the button to go back up. The doors opened and she was there. Her beautiful face looking at me. I smiled huge. Her eyes were filled with tears. My smile instantly vanished.

"Natalie, whats wrong?"

I grabbed her arms gently and stared into her eyes.

'I just lost my job'

She moved from me and stepped inside the elevator, wiping away a falling tear.

"What? Why!!"

'Because of us in the music room earlier. It was nice meeting you'

She gave me a small smile as the doors closed. No. I tried to open the doors but it was too late. She was at the bottom. I ran to the music room, grabbed my phone and ran back to the elevator. I looked around trying to find something to help. I turned to see a staircase in the corner. Running towards it, i jumped down a few steps and slid down the banister on the last flight of stairs. When i got to the bottom i looked around for her, asked around for her but she was nowhere. I ran to the front door, no sign of her. Maybe the security guard saw her?

"Excuse me sir, did a girl come out of here? Not very tall, long blonde hair, leather jacket?"

He smiled at me, he obviously knew who i was talking about.

'Natalie? Sure, she just came out about 2 minutes ago. Lovely girl. I'm afraid you've just missed her, she's just gone. Is there something i could help you with Mr Bieber?'

"Actually, there is"
