How To Love

Chapter 2: Deep Breaths

Trying to keep your cool as the hat tilts back revealing the face, of the one and only, Justin Bieber. Catching your breath you can't help but stare. "Excuse me ma'm we would like a private room for practice." One the security guards barks at you. Realizing you are at the front desk, trying be an employee instead of a fangirl you nod and bustle around trying to organize your thoughts. You feel the eyes of the guards on you as you gather paperwork. "Just sign here please." you huff, taking a deep breath, "Stay as long as you need, Room 8 should be alright?" They nod and walk down the hall, you recognize Nick, Justin's long time- choreographer go with them. Justin walks by the desk sending you a sly wink before leaving you standing there speechless. "That DID NOT just happen." You whisper to yourself.

Rhonda, the owner of the studio comes running down the hall towards the entrance. "MS BROWN! Do you know who is in Room 8 !?" "Uh yes I just rented it out." Trying be calm around your boss who is obviously frazzled. "Oh don't act all calm Gracie Brown that's Justin Bieber in there! If I recall correctly you said you said you used to have a massive crush on him." Rhonda winked at you. "Yeah well, 'used to' being the word, I was younger then." You knew you were lying to yourself but you ignored it."Oh shush he is pretty cute you should try and ya know...talk to him." She gives you this look, you can't tell what she's trying to tell you."Rhonda What are you getting at? I thought we weren't allowed to... "You ask confused but Rhonda interrupts you. "Ms Brown, Im trying to tell you that his choreographer asked for a girl dancer here, they need to practice some routine with a woman part!" Aaandddd???" You heart is beginning to race. You hate that you're acting like two excited school girls. Rhonda grabs your hand, "Justin personally requested, that you would be the partner." "Wha, what?" You are so confused at what's going down right now. " He asked me if 'the pretty lady at the desk dances' and I said yes and that you would gladly do it." You stop Rhonda from pulling you down the hall, "You've got to be kidding me, I can't dance with him! I'm not even good." she keeps dragging you to the door,"Gracie, I'm asking you as an employee to do this, just calm down and act as you would to any other customer." And with that she started to walk away. "How am I supposed to act like he's just another customer for goodness sake." You say under your breath. With that you start walking down the long corridor, you take a right, and at the very end of the hall, the last door, Room 8, you hear what sounds like a new song of Justin's, blaring from inside. The two security men are standing outside the door. You take a deep breath to calm your nerves and start to walk to the door. You look at the big burly men as they nod that you can enter. Stepping into the room, surrounded with mirrors your ears are flooded with the loud club jam. You see Nick showing Justin (a shirtless one in fact) some new moves, and Derek, your coworker who you shadow the most is also with them. Justin sees you in the mirror,pausing his music, he turns around to greet you, gliding his fingers through his hair before eagerly holding his hand out, "Hey I'm Justin, nice to meet you." He gives you a warm smile. "I'm Gracie, you too." Shaking his hand you notice yours are shaky and sweaty. Telling yourself to stay calm you follow him over to where Nick and Derek are. Derek gives you a smirk. You return a warning glance, knowing Derek would most likely tease you about this. "Yo thanks for helping with this." Justin says looking at you. "Oh sure. My pleasure, I mean you're welcome." Blushing, you can't believe how foolish you're acting. " OK let's get started shall we?" Nick asks everyone. The music turns back on and you feel Justin come closer to you. Deep breaths you tell yourself. Deep breaths...
