I'll Be Your Strength (A Nathan Sykes Fan Fiction)

                I was reading The Host when my teacher, Mrs. Henrys, phone rang. Well, the school phone. She looked up and said “Aubre and Melanie, go to the office.” I stood up and walked towards the door, I slowed down there so Aubre, who was my best friend, could catch up. She quickly did. When we were in the hallway walking towards the office, we walked extremely slowly. I had spoken up first saying “Why are we both going there? Like, I’d get one of us going there to get checked out, but both of us?” She replied saying “I have no clue what we are doing there.” I nodded and we sped our pace up. We walked in and saw the principal smiling. I asked nervously “Um, why are we here?” Aubre elbowed my stomach and the principal, Mr. Melton, said “Follow me.”

                Aubre and I had no choice but to follow him. As I’m sure you know, if your principal tells you to follow them, you follow. We walked behind him and quickly realized he was leading us outside. Aubre and I looked at each other at the same moment. We both had confusion plastered to our face. Mr. Melton held the door for us to go outside and we did. He said “Just a minute.” He pulled out a phone and called someone, I could hear him say “Yeah we’re ready. They’re out here. Hurry up though.” He said them in that order, but he said stuff in between that too.

                We waited like one minute then a limousine drove into the driveway of the school. I looked at Aubre and her face was filled with excitement. I’m sure mine was too. I was smiling. We stared at the limo in awe as Jay McGuiness stepped out. He said “Hey girls.” He was smiling too. I was crying at that point. Then I saw Nathan Sykes stepping out of the limo. I fell on my knees and started crying again. Aubre just stood there mouth gaped open. Nathan saw what he caused, me falling, and walked up the stairs toward me and helped me up. I was crying and laughing at the same time. The whole time that was happening, Max George, Tom Parker, and Siva Kaneswaran were getting out of the limo.

                Once they were all out, they came up the stairs and Tom asked “So, which one of you is Aubre and which one of you is Melanie.” Aubre still had her mouth open and at that point I pushed her jaw up and said “I’m Melanie.” They all said hi or hey then came up and hugged me. They did the same thing to Aubre. Nathan spoke up and said “You guys wanna talk in the limo, it’s cooler in there.” I knew he was right. He wouldn’t have offered if me and Aubre weren’t wearing jeans and sweatshirts. I nodded and he grabbed my hand while Jay grabbed Aubres.

                They led us to the limo and helped us in. It was really fanciful. It was crazy. I asked first “How did you know we were huge fans and where we went to school?” Jay answered this time “Jasmine told us. Isn’t she your sister Aubre?” Aubre nodded. She was probably shocked that Jay was holding her hand. Nobody was holding mine, maybe because I was hiding in a corner while Aubre talked to them. I stared at all of them, blushing anytime they saw me staring. After about ten minutes, Nathan slid over to the corner I was hiding in. He said “Aubre said you’re not shy. Why are you hiding?” I replied, my voice was under toned with sadness “Because I don’t want to not be liked. I don’t want to ruin this for my friend.” His face contorted with shock then. He said “Don’t worry. I’m sure you won’t ruin it. Or I won’t let you.” I laughed then and asked “You don’t even know me. Why does it matter?” He smiled and said “Every fan matters.”  I started blushing like crazy at that point and when Nathan offered me his hand, I started crying and blushing and smiling.

                I took his hand as he led me back to the area of the limo where everybody was talking. I heard Max say “Here comes the loner!” Aubre and Nathan laughed while I blushed. The band, Aubre, and I talked for at least an hour. I checked my phone and saw it was 3:00. Mr. Melton popped in just after I checked my phone and said “Time to go girls. Go back to your class and don’t tell anybody about this.” Aubre and I nodded then I said “We have to go. Goodbye The Wanted.” Before I could jump out of the limo though, Nathan grabbed my arm and Aubre sat back down, confused. Nathan said “We’re gonna be here for another two days, maybe we could talk to you two again?” I said quickly “We would if we could contact you.” Nathan nodded than said “Give me your phone.” I did and he handed me his “Type in your number. I’ll give you mine. We’ll call you or something.” I said “Uh sure.” They said bye and gave us each a quick hug. If I wasn’t imagining it, I had thought Nathan held me a little longer than all the other guy’s id, but it was probably my imagination. We got out of the limo and walked back to class quietly.
