(Gabrielle's POV)

"Gab, get into your dress! We're the first down the catwalk!" Andrea urged me into my room, where she had my dress laid out for me, along with my shoes. I had just finished at hair and make up, and I had made a beeline for the snack table, but Drea redirected me. "Drea, I'm so hungry!" I pouted, and shimmied into my dress. "You get dressed, I'll feed you!" She said, grabbing the bowl of assorted chips I had made. We both simultaneously did our tasks, until I was fully dressed, just in time to hear the music starting outside. "HURRY!" Drea rushed me outside, to the front of the catwalk behind the curtains. I heard the familiar tune of "Wherever You Wanna Go" and smiled. "Ready?" Drea looked over at me. I smiled, and grabbed her hand. "Let's go." We walked out as Mikey started singing. I walked down the catwalk, the lights blinding me, but I couldn't help but smile. Me and Drea let go of each other's hands as we both spun at the the end of the catwalk, and turned around. As I walked, I was able to see Mikey and the rest of the boyz. I smiled and winked at Mikey, mouthing the words to myself. The show ended when Mikey said "Wherever You Wanna Go." one last time. All the models came walking down the runway, me and Drea leading. Mikey hopped off the platform they had been standing on, and stood at the foot of the catwalk, blowing whistles at me, making me laugh. I quickly walked backstage, hugging Drea and my mom. "You girls looked beautiful out there!" My mom squealed, placing kisses on both our heads. "Mom, this was awesome! Everyone loved your looks, and Drea, I think you have made quite the name for yourself!" I smiled, and twirled in the dress I was wearing. We were all freaking out when I heard a cough behind me. I turned around, and there was Mikey. "You looked beautiful!" I smiled, and hugged him. "Thanks kid. You guys rocked it!" "Awe, gee, thanks." He smiled, and hugged me again. "Wanna go dance?" I was about to say yes, when my mom whisked me away to some of her friends. I gave Mikey an apologetic look, and waved my phone in the air, signaling him to text me. He nodded, and winked, making me smile. I smiled, and started talking to my mom's friends. So far, this was all perfect...

(Mikey's POV; Five hours later)

I meant it, what I said. You really did look beautiful today.

I laid on the couch in the living room in my sweats and a hoodie with the TV cranked up loud on the news channel, just like the old days at home. Today had been amazing. We totally killed the performance, and I could feel myself getting closer with Gab.

Thanks kid, you looked handsome (: And you guys totally killed it. My mom's friends are going crazy about how great you were.

I smiled, and felt my cheeks turn red. She had been complimenting us so much. I really hope she was impressed with us. "MIKEY! JASON! MADISON!" Layla came running in, Melody glued to her side and the grocery bags flying everywhere. "What?!" I shot up, laughing. "TURN IT ON E NEWS!" I did as I was told, and all the other boyz came running in, just in time to see us performing on the TV. My mouth fell to the floor, and we all stood up, jumping up and down in happiness. This was really happening. We were really making it big time..
