Lights went on and blinded me for a few seconds. I heard people screaming and yelling my name as they saw me appear from out of the dark. A smile crept on my face happy to see how much people enjoyed listening to my songs.

I held the microphone to my mouth and greeted all my fans. "Heyy London! Are you excited?" I said and the croud screamed even louder. "I take it that's a yes."

This was the last performance from the tour I was doing throughout Europe. Even though I was very tired I didn't make any mitakes and was happy everyone left with happy faces.

Backstage I was immediately greeted by my bodyguard who had become my good friend after all these years working together. "Hi, (y/n). You nailed it again. It was amazing!" He said smiling.

"Thank you, (c/n)." I smiled back. He said it everytime I finished a performance. How sweet.

"I made you a sandwich." (C/n) handed me a sandwich wrapped in paper. "I figured you must be very hungry."

"Yes I actually am. So hungry even during the performance I could hear my tummy growling. Oh and thirsty too." I said as I ate the sandwich in a few bites.

"Uhm.. I... would you like to go get some coffee somewhere then?" He blushed a bit.

"Yes, sure. I'd love too, (c/n)." I smiled at him. "First I have to change clothes and look at my fanmail." We walked to the changing room and I gestured (c/n) to wait outside. Like he was gonna stand next to me in the room while changing clothes. He is my bodyguard but there are limits of course.

I put on jeans a comfy sweater and was able to finally free my feet from these heels. I liked my stage clothes but they weren't the most comfy ones.

After I was done (c/n) and I headed to a small room where the fanmail was waiting for me to be read. It was a whole box full of letters and sometimes a drawing. (C/n) also opened letters and read them out loud to me.

"Oh another one with: I hope I get to meet you one time, (y/n). You are my inspiration. This must have been the twentieth already."

"Tsss stop being so mean." I laughed.

"Oh this one is shit. Listen: Do you have a boyfriend, (y/n)? I think you are the most beautiful person on earth and I am deeply in love with you. Probably an ugly loser with no social life." (C/n) threw the letter back into the box.

I glanced at him and smirked. "Are you jealous?" I teased him.

"Yeah sure." He blushed and quickly opened another letter.

After we read all letters we went to a small coffee house where (c/n) often went to. It was cozy and had a nice vibe. With different clothes, no make-up one and my hair different most people didn't recognize me which was of course very nice.

We seated ourselves next to a window with a view upon the street. It started raining and the raindrops made a comforting ticking noice on the window.

We didn't have to wait long for a waiter - in this case a waitress - to appear at our table and to take our order. "Hello, (c/n). I have never seen you here with a pretty girl." The waitress smirked.

"Well.. I-uhh.." (c/n) started blushing and changed subject. "What would you like to have, (y/n)?"

"A cappuccino would do." I said.

"That will be two cappuccino then." (C/n) said to the waiter and he left.

"You know her?" I asked.

"Are you a bit jealous?" (C/n) smirked.

"No, why would you think that." I said and started blushing. I saw (c/n) smirking even more.

"If you really want to know, I come here more often. This is like my place where I go to if I just want to relax and clear my mind."

"And I am the first person you have brought here?"

"Yes, you are. You should feel special." He smirked.

We didn't have to wait long for our drinks and talked a bit more. I had a lot of fun laughing at (c/n)'s jokes and stories not looking anywhere but his eyes. After a while (c/n) paid for the drinks -although I told him not too, but he is a man and wouldn't let his pride down (not that I would care anyway) -

We headed to the hotel I was staying and since it wasn't very far away we decided to take a stroll. It was still raining but not that hard anymore.

"Oh, I left my wallet on the table." (C/n) suddenly said as he put his hands his pockets sighing. "Stay here, I'll be back in a sec."

I nodded and leaned against a street lamp. I saw a couple walking side by side under an umbrella talking to eachother with a continuing smile on their faces.

"Hey, little lady." I heard someone behind me say. I turned around and saw a man probably somewhere in his forties holding out a bottle with alcohol to me. "Why don't you join me. I have more of this in my room." His breath reeked of alcohol and he was drunk.

Trying to be polite and not making him angry I answered. "I'd rather not, thanks." I turned my back to me but I immediately found out that was a stupid mistake. The man grabbed me tight and held his hand against my mouth so I couldn't yell for help. He violently pulled me with him as I tried to free myself.

"We are going to have a lot of fun, little lady." He said and held me even tighter.

I struggled but it was no use. I wasn't strong enough...

"Let her go, you bastard!" I heard someone say and spotted (c/n) running towards us as fast as he could. He hit the man hard on his face and as the man loosened his grip I immediately broke myself free. The man grabbed a knife from out of his shoe and held it out to (c/n). He lunched at (c/n) but he was able to break the attack and kick the man on the ground. He quickly stood up and stumbled away till he was out of our sights.

(c/n) held me in his arms and tears flowed down my cheeks. "I was so afraid, (c/n)."

"I shouldn't have left you alone. I am so sorry, (y/n)." He said and with his fingers under my chin he pulled up my face to his. With his fingers he wiped away the tears.

"Don't be. It wasn't your fault."

"No, I could never forgive myself if something had happened to you. I care about you so much, (y/n). You know that?"

I didn't know what to say so I just kept staring into his eyes while the rain started pouring again.

"(Y/n)..." he drew his face even closer till our lips collided. "(Y/n)... I love you."

Sorry I hadn't been writing lately. Hope this story makes up to it :)
