"Cause you are driving me crazy...." -Aiden Castro #HTB

Tessa's POV:

I sighed deeply and turned to Lucas fully who was now looking worried. I smiled and kept my hand in his palm which he held protectively with a happy grin. I walked up on the stairs and now I was Infront of thousands of people and live on television.

Why did I get agree on this at the first place? Damm.

"Hey." I felt Lucas squeezing my hand. He stroked my skin with his thumb. "I'm here." He whispered, assuring me with a smile and nodded looking at the crowd. We walked to the front and smiled at the cameras. The flashes hit my eyes and the cheers hit my ears. People were happy, so happy by our performances.

We turned and began to walked back while Lucas gave me 'Well done' look and I smiled widely. We stopped at the end from the front and he walked downstairs. As soon as his hand left mine, I panicked. I was looking at the people alone, waiting for only one person.

Aiden.

I was a nervous wreck and missed Luke so much at that time. His assuring smile, hold, stroking han- I was pulled out of my thoughts when I felt a hand on the small of my back. I blinked and turned my face sideways to meet Aiden's smiling face.

"Smile." He said through the plastered smile. I gave him a small nod and smiled as per his will. I looked back to see Lucas was giving me a thumbs up. He flashed a big smile but I was being pulled into Aiden's body. "You can go to him later." He hissed, rolling his eyes. My eyebrows snapped together but before I could argue, the host spoke.

"A big round of applause on the last runway from our special guests and the students of St. Lawrence!" The crowed applauded and we began to walk forward. Aiden still had his hand on my back possessively and he kept pulling me into him. We flashed smiles infront of the people and cameras and reached at the end for a pause.

As I was about turn back, my heels betrayed me and I lost my balance. Shit, no! I stumbled and was about to fall when pboth of Aiden's hands slided to my waist and he pulled me into him. I wrapped my hands around his neck and we stayed in that position for a moment.

"This was suppose to happen." He gave me a look and smiled at the camera so did I but I knew that Aiden wanted to kill me from inside. His smile was telling me that he was angry, very angry on me. What would happen if I tripped? Oh god, it would be so embarrassing Infront of the people but Aiden saved me, thank god.

We both stood on our feets again and Aiden spun me around with a grin. He should be an actor too. How perfectly he covered it all with his cleverness.

We turned around and walked while people hooted and cheered with a loud claps. Aiden I seemed so happy that no one could see the irritations and annoyance behind out smiling faces. Wow, we both should get an Oscar for acting.

"Yay! You did great!" Serena and Musa came forward and hugged me as soon I stepped downstairs.

"Did I?" I asked with a grin and they nodded.

"Please replay their ramp walk." Natasha order the manager and he did so. I watched out ramp walk and a smile automatically appeared on my face. We both looked so. . . . happy together. Like there was no one who could separate us. Our smiles were fake but still, the video took me in awe and I wished to see it again and again.

"Can I have it?" I asked Natasha and she nodded.

"I'll email it to you." Lena smiled. "By the way, you all did so good for someone who modelled for the first time."
