"And the winner is..." You paused as you opened the envelope. "Fifth Harmony!"
The entire building erupted when you announced who the winner of the small orange blimp was. You watched the five girls get up out of their seats and make their way to the stage. You followed them with your eyes as they were helped up the stairs and walked towards you with huge smiles on their faces.
You handed the award to Dinah after she hugged you first, telling her congratulations. You were then greeted by a very excited Ally, who pulled you into a tight hug. From there, you moved down to Lauren, who wrapped her arms around your neck, while yours snakes around her waist. When Lauren pulled away Camila immediately jumped into your arms, making you laugh. When Camila pulled away you were met with Normani. You couldn't help but stare a little at her perfect smile and beautiful body before pulling her into a hug. Her hug lasted a little longer than the others before you pulled away and moved to the side of the stage, but not before checking her out one more time.
You smiled as the girls began giving their thank you speech. You once again caught yourself staring at Normani. You looked down at your feet for a second before looking up and seeing something that make you blush a little. Normani only smiled when she realized she had gotten caught checking you out. You giggled slightly when she never tore her eyes off of you, only continuing to rake her eyes up and down your body.
The staring contest you two had going on was interrupted by the second eruption of cheers from the crowd, making you realize their speech was over and they were being escorted off stage. You were led by a stage hand back stage right behind the girls. You watched them gush over the award, which brought a smile to your face.You went over to greet your manager to discuss which afterparty you had to make an appearance at. "You only have to go for an hour or so. After that you can go wherever, just make sure to let me know where you go," Lilly said with a stern look, referring to the time your phone died and she couldn't get into contact with you to find out where you went. You smiled and laughed knowing she wasn't serious before nodding.
"Stop being a chicken and go talk to him." "No! Are you crazy!" Your eyebrows rose when you heard the familiar voices whisper yelling at each other behind you. You giggled when they continued to argue, three other voices coming in, confirming who it was. You continued to talk to your manager for a little before turning around to figure out where the five girls went.
You smiled when you caught the eyes of the one who had been on your mind all night. You walked over to the group of girls, suppressing a laugh when they started teasing Normani. "Hey, girls. Congrats again on the win," You said, hugging them all, and once again, the hug you and Normani shared was just a tad bit longer than the others.
They all thanked you and you continued the conversation. "Are you guys going to any afterparties?" You asked. "We don't know yet. What about you?" Lauren answered with raised eyebrows. "I'm supposed to make an appearance at the TigerBeat one and from there I don't know, but I'm definitely not staying there the whole night." The girls all giggled and agreed about what you said.
"Normani didn't you want to go check out the TigerBeat afterparty?" Dinah asked, earning a confused look from Normani. "Ugh... N-" "You should go with Y/n, since he's going anyways. Then you guys can come meet up with us after." The rest of the girls agreed with Dinah and from the look on Normani's face, you could tell she was being set up.
"Um... sure, I guess. If that's cool with you?" Normani turned to you and asked. "Of course. I'd love the company," you told her with a smile. "Well, we're heading out right now since this ends in ten minutes. We'll catch up with you guys later!" Dinah said, leading the girls away, and leaving Normani with you. "Bye Y/n! Bye Mani!" Camila called as they walked away.
You laughed as they disappeared around the corner, turning back to Normani. "They just set us up, didn't they?" You asked with a smile. "They sure did," Normani answered with a breathy laugh. "Well. I guess I'll have to thank them later. You ready to go?" You questioned, holding your hand out for Normani to take. She smiled brightly as she took your hand and you intertwined your fingers with hers.
