American Girls- A The Wanted Fanfic

Chapter 16: The Way I Feel

Madi's POV:

We realized we had taken too much time off, so we had to get back to the studio and record a few more songs. Afterwards, Jayne and Sonya announced that Ellen wanted to interview us. Of course we said yes, so that's where we are now- backstage at the Ellen show. We had all been just chatting for a while when someone came and told us we were on in five minutes. We performed Little Wonders for the first time live before she sat us down for an interview. Since there was only one couch and ten of us, Max, Sydney, Abi, and Nathan were on the couch with Siva, Sierra, Tom, and Taylor standing up behind them. Seeing that there was nowhere else to go, Jay and I plopped down on the floor.

"So, all of you are living together for the time being?" Ellen asked. We all nodded, a few of us saying yes or yeah. Tom said, "You know it!" We all had to laugh at his being different.

"So Sierra, who's the hardest to live with?" Ellen asked.

"Abi and Nath because they will not stay off of eachother. It's cute, but gross at the same time, you know what I mean?" Sierra answered.

"Yes, I heard you two were dating," she said pointing to Abi and Nathan. They had made it official to the fans earlier in the week on twitter. Then Ellen's eyes shifted to us on the floor, "I've also heard a few rumors that Madi and Jay were together," she said, wiggling her eyebrows.

I was surprised, I really was. I didn't think anyone knew. Jay and I looked at eachother for a second. My look asking if we should put it out there, his responding with a yes. I looked to the audience, "Actually, we are," I smiled as I layed my head on his shoulder and his arm snaked around my waist. We heard an aaaaawwwww... from the crowd.

Ellen smiled, "So there you go guys, the secret's out. Jaydisyn is official!" A cheer from the audience. "Alright, so now we're gonna play a game," she started, "I have two stacks of cards here with each of your names once in each pile. I'm going to pick one from the first pile and that person has to impersonate the person I pick up from the second pile, got it?"

We all nodded. She started, "Jay has to impersonate... Nathan,"

Jay did an impersonation of Nathan doing an impersonation of a fly. I couldn't help but laugh, "Madi has to impersonate... Jay," I like this game. I stood up and then pretended to trip over my own feet. Everyone but Jay laughed at that one.

The game went on, Nathan mocking Seev, and Sierra doing Abi's laugh. Sydney tried to do Max's accent while pulling at Tom's ears, although it didn't really work. Taylor got to impersonate me, saying, "Don't you think Jay and I make the cutest couple, Tay? You know what else is cute? Puppies. We should get a puppy, Tay. Oh My God, look at Abi and Nath, aaaaaawwww... aren't they just the cutest?" Seeing as those were the last two cards, Ellen was aloud to ask questions again.

"What was that?" she asked, turning to me.

"Well," I started, "I have this obsession with cuteness, you know? And we all went to a bar back in England before we came back here, and I was just a bit drunk, and so... that conversation happened..." Jay laughed next to me and I playfully smacked his arm.

"Well I agree, you two are a cute couple... So that's all the time we have here today, give it up for The Wanted and Ambition!" The crowd cheered as we walked off stage.

As soon as we got offstage, I said, "Taylor!"

"What?" she responded, "She told me to impersonate you, and that's the first thing that came to mind..." I shook my head at her as I felt a pair of arms wrap around me from behind.

"Well, the secret's out now," Jay whispered in my ear. I nodded before turning around and kissing him, my arms around his neck.

"I'm just gonna go... anywhere but here..." I heard Taylor mutter behind me. I ignored it though.

"I don't know about you," I whispered, "but I'm just glad I don't have to pretend in public..." I gave him another peck on the lips.

Taylor's POV:

Madi and Jay reminded me of Matt and I. I tried to look anywhere but at them, which just so happened to be a poster of a dinosaur. Matt used to call me T-Rex, you know, because my name starts with T and I have a bit of a temper... I felt a single tear drip over. I put on a brave face during the interview, but in truth- I was a mess. Sydney walked by and noticed. "You know, hun, this is just my opinion, but I really don't think you're over him," she said, slinging an arm over my shoulder.

"It's just so hard, you know?" I said, "I mean, why, after an entire year, would he do something like that? Has it been going on for a while? Did that girl even know he wasn't single?"

"Sssshhh... it's gonna be okay. You'll find a guy you love ten times more than you ever loved Matt, and he will be completely faithful to you. That's what you deserve, that's what you'll get."

"Thanks, Syd," I told her, pulling away from our hug. She just gave me a reassuring smile before dissappearing down the hallway, leaving me alone to think.

I sat alone for about ten minutes before Tom came through, grabbing my hand, "There you are, we were all starting to ge worried... The car's here and if we don't hurry up, it'll leave without us,"

I giggled as we ran through the halls like maniacs, trying to find the front door. Tom never let go of my hand. I was okay with that, though because when I was with Tom, I forgot. I forgot about everything Matt and I ever went through. I forgot that he cheated on me. I forgot that I ever loved him. Which scared me. But it was a good kind of scared... like things were about to change.
