Down the street I see a line of black vehicles. I go outside to wait. Mr. Hawthorne comes running next to me with a pass in his hand. "Here, take this. This way they know you are supposed to be with Celine and who you are." I take it from him and he darts off. Ok then...
The vehicles pull up into the circle drive and stop. Kid stare but continue to walk on to class. A few guys in black suits get out and one opens the side door. There I see her. Celine.
I have butterflies in my stomach. "Act professional." I say to remind myself.
"Hi I'm Celine." She says with her hand out.
I smile and shake it. "Hello, I'm Sam. Nice to meet you." My voice cracks and Celine smiles.
"Will you be my guide while I'm here?" she says.
"Yes, I will be. Let me show you inside." I few kids stop and stare. I walk with my head up by the side of THE Celine Dion. Her guards open the doors and I lead her straight to the left into the auditorium.
"I am taking you this way since there are currently so many students in the halls. It's just a bit easier." I smile. I lead them through the large room, up on the stage, through backstage, and through the back doors which lead into the band room. Once inside her entourage follow behind and start to set up her stuff.
"Mr. Fallon told me in the meeting that you will have a small rehearsal beforehand if you would like, it will be in about a half hour, is that ok?"
"Of course darling."
"I have a few things to finish up and then I will be back to bring you over. Oh wait! I haven't shown you around, follow me." I smile. I show her where the bathrooms are and lead her through the back band room hallway to the practice rooms so she has a more private space to change. I show her where everything is at in our auditorium and so on. I then leave her to start getting ready and I have a quick thought. I should probably go through and make sure all the doors into the auditorium and band room are locked so we don't have any randoms trying to get in.
I go back into the band room to see Celine almost finished with makeup and Law standing next to her looking at the outfits for tonight's show. "OOO, I am in love with this yellow color. You should wear this one!" He says to Celine. Neither of them realize I am here. I start to walk in.
"I love it! I agree, oh hey Sam! We were just talking about what I should wear. What do you think?" Celine gets up to grab the dress and holds it up in front of her and dances around.
I laugh, "I love it! Mr. Fallon is ready for you, shall I bring you over?"
"Yes, of course." She smiles and hands the dress off to Law who hangs it back up. We walk into the gym and Mr. Fallon introduces himself then they run the soundcheck.
I sit on the side of the gym waiting for my next task. Celine's band is with her and they start to play the intro for "Tell Him".
"I'm scared. So afraid to show I care.
Will he think me weak, if I tremble when I speak."She begins to sing. "Sam can you make sure everyone else in the band room is doing ok." Mr. Hawthorne comes out of no where.
"Ugh, yeah. Sorry." I reply since he walked in on me fangirling in the corner. Whoops. I walk out of the auditorium and into the band room and check on everyone. "Hey, how are you guys doing? Need anything?"
Law speaks up, "No, I think we are all ok, but thanks darling!"
"Not a problem." I smile.
I walk back into the hall and stand there contemplating whether I should run by the snack bar quick so I can grab a bite to eat before concert since I won't be able to have lunch. Eh, why not. I walk down the hallway and into the cafeteria. On the way I bump into Molly, "OMG HOW'S IT GOING??" she yells.
"Woah, I'm having a great time." I smile.
"You're so lucky! See you later!" and she runs off. Ok then. I get in line and get a bag of chips. Yeah, I'm basic. I eat them on my way back into the gym and finish once there. After a while longer it is time to take Celine back to her makeshift dressing room. I lead her across the hall once again. This time Mr. Fallon comes in, "So we have half and hour before it's time for Celine to be on stage. Students are already going into the gym. I will be in the gym making sure everything is set up. Good luck!"
"Thanks!" Celine smiles.
Wow, we already that close to performance time.
