So Close Yet So Far

Chapter 4

"You know you love me, I know you care

Just shout whenever, and I'll be there.

You are my love, you are my heart, and 

we will never ever ever be apart."

I was looking at Justin from behind. His dance moves were spot on and his voice was spectacular. 

I couldn't help but to just get butterflies in my stomach, as if he were actually singing to me. Psssh 

He would never, but I still love to hear the words to the song.

As soon as he finished, he ran backstage to his dressing room. He waved his hand motioning for me to follow him. Jessica was standing with Ryan having a conversation of God knows what, so I followed him as he suggested.

He looked at me and asked, "So what brings you here tonight?"

"Well today is my 18th birthday, and I've been waiting a long time for this, and my dad gave me tickets for my birthday." 

"Aw, well Happy Birthday Allison." 

I was just having a conversation with Justin Bieber. Even if it wasn't that long, it was still just amazing. 

"Since it's your birthday, how about another surprise?" he asked.

"Like what?"

"Just wait and see, beautiful"

Oh gosh. I'm scared, but also excited. Scared of what's going to happen, but excited that he's going to do something, and we just met not even 3 minutes ago. 

I go back close to the stage, gazing at Justin from the back.

"So there's this girl here tonight, who has been waiting a long time to be here. I spoke to her just a minute ago and today is her 18th birthday. So this song is dedicated to you." he said, looking back smirking at me.

"One less lonely girl

One less lonely girl,

one less lonely girl, 

How many "I told ya's" and start overs

and shoulders have you cried on before?

How many promises, be honest girl, how many

tears you let hit the floor."

His voice flowed with the music so perfectly. 

Oh my gosh! Is he going to make me his One Less Lonely Girl?! 

I ran up to Jessica, and pulled her away from Ryan. "Jessica! Justin is going to pick me to be his one less lonely girl!" I started to cry of excitement.

"No way!" she said, feeling jealousy and envy. But I know she was excited about it.

Justin's dancers come backstage, and look at me and motion for me to come to them. He gently pull me across the stage, into the big chair, made out of speakers. They hand me a bouquet of roses and I smile, crying of joy, covering my mouth. I glance over and he walkes towards me, and sits down on the side of the chair. He continues singing to me.

"I could fix up your broken heart,

I could give you a brand new start, 

I can make you believe, 

I just wanna set one girl free to fall,

fall in love, with me."

I was staring up at him smiling, with tears rolling down my face. This is incredible. I can't believe this is actually happening right now. 

He finishes the song, grabs my hand and runs with me backstage.

I jump up and hug him tightly. 

"This is the best present I could ask for. Would you mind taking a couple pictures with me?" I asked

"Of course!" he said, smiling.  We took photos. Lots of them. Ones of making silly faces, serious ones, and ones of us smiling. I even have two pictures that are special. One of me kissing him on the cheek, and one of him kissing me on mine.

"Thank you. Now I have to go find my friend, I think she's with Ryan, and then I suppose we have to go." 

He pulls my arm gently.

"Hey, wait, please. Stay until the end? I wanna talk with you when I'm done performing."

I nodded and watched him walk on stage. Of course I was gonna stay.
