"Don't you think that's a little too much?" Elena asked, staring at her reflection in the bathroom mirror.

Sophia, Amelia, and herself were helping each other get ready for the award show in Amelia and Elena's hotel room. The boys were all getting ready in Nick's. Once they were finished, they were going to meet up in the girls' room and go down to the limo together.

Amelia had just finished with Elena's makeup, and Elena, being a girl who doesn't wear a whole lot of makeup on a daily basis, was not fond of how caked her face looked. She did, however, admit to looking better with the makeup on. She just didn't know if it was too much for the occasion.

"Elena, stop freaking out. You look hot." Amelia assured her as she picked up the scattered makeup from the counter and placed it into her cosmetic bag.

"I couldn't agree more." Sophia added, leaning against the bathroom counter.

Elena hesitantly nodded, not sure if she should believe their words of encouragement.

"Alright," Elena started, "I have to pee, but you can tell the boys we're ready."

The two girls nodded and made their way out of the bathroom, giving Elena privacy. Sophia picked up her phone and texted the boys that they could come over whenever they were ready.

Elena had finished up in the bathroom, and just as she was getting ready to leave, she heard the hotel door open and braced herself. She gave one last look in the mirror. She was nervous, and wanted to make sure she looked presentable before walking out the door.

Her hair was curled, with one piece from the front braided around her head, keeping loose hairs out of her face. Her makeup, although flashy, was very nicely done. It fit her personality for sure. Her dress was elegant, but a little tight on her curves. It was white and although a little showy, she looked undeniably beautiful. Although they picked it up last night, it was gorgeous and she adored it. However, it was sleeveless, and she knew she would end up freezing within fifteen minutes.

With a sharp sigh, she turned to the door and hesitantly began to twist the knob. The yelling of the boys was heard faintly through the door, which made her believe the attention wouldn't be directly on her when she exited the bathroom. This, although making it easier for her to walk out, wasn't exactly true.

She pulled the door open and took a step out. Her head was pointed at the ground, so she couldn't see the eyes on her, but she could definitely feel them.

Sitting down beside Sophia, the eyes finally turned off of her. She looked up and saw Amelia chatting with Jaeden. Of course, she looked over and saw Wyatt, his gaze set on her friend.

Amelia's dress was the same as Elena's but in black. However, Amelia was slightly curvier than Elena, so Elena couldn't help but feel insecure.

But watching Wyatt look at her friend as if his whole world revolved around her, she couldn't help but smile.

What she didn't know, was that somebody in that very room was looking at her the exact same way.
