Diary of an International Pop Star

Chapter 8- the perfect life

Adam and I stayed on the beach for hours just talking about life.

I told him how singing is my passion and how happy it makes me. He asked me to sing but I didn't think he would like it. Plus he would recognize my songs.

He told me how he would vacation in Hawaii and swim with dolphins. We told each other our fears and secrets. (Not my big one, of course)

"Oh my god, is the sun rising?"

We stayed out all night. I had no idea.

"Here you go. Your first sunrise."

It was magic. The sun was so powerful and strong. I stared at it and I fell in love.

I noticed from the corner of my eye that Adam was looking at me.

"Adam this is beautiful. Thank you."

"Come on. Let's get you home."

We walked back to Adams car and as soon as we got in, I kissed him. He was amazing. I've known him not 2 days and he made me feel like I was in love.

School tomorrow is going to be weird.

Adam leaned right into the kiss. He seems to know when I'm going to kiss him. It got intense. He reached over and grabbed my face. He started feeling my body and it felt like he was touching every part of my body. He touched my boobs and it felt weird but I sort of liked it. I felt it get more passionate.

Where is this going?

I felt him get really touchy. His hands were going all over. He reached down for my shirt hem and started taking it off.

I could hardly speak with all the kissing. My words were breathy.

"Adam..."

"Lexi.."

"Adam. We need to take it slow, ok? I mean I just met you."

"I understand. But you can't deny we have a connection."

"Oh we do. It's like what you read about in a fairy tale."

"I'll go slow, but it will be hard not wanting this with you. I want to connect on a physical level with you Lexi."

"I do too, Adam. But I'm still 15 and I just moved here.."

"I never say this but I'm willing to wait for you. However long it takes. I'll be here."

"Adam you make me feel so normal..."

"What do you mean normal?"

I didn't think he heard that.

"Nothing. I just feel myself around you."

I wanted to tell him so bad but I had to be normal for a while. Be a kid. Have a real relationship.

"Lexi I don't know what you're doing to me, but I like it."

"Oh my god it's 630? my parents will be up soon!"

"Ok I'll get you home."

I didn't see my parents car in the driveway. Odd.

"Hey can you stay here a sec?"

"Sure."

I went inside.

"Mom? dad?"

I found a note on the counter.

"Alexa, your father and I went to Martha's Vineyard for some business. Big movie deal. We will be back Thursday morning. Love you."

I've never been home alone for more than a night.

I walked back outside.

"Hey do you wanna come in for a bit? hang a little talk about school?"

"Sounds good."

"You can just sit wherever. I'm just going to run upstairs to throw on some comfy clothes."

I changed as fast as I could. I really wanted to hang with Adam for as long as possible.

As I was coming down the stairs, I heard the piano. Adam knew how to play?

It was a song I didn't pick up on for a few seconds, but then I knew what it was.

I was writing a new song just fooling around and it has a lot of piano in it. I must have left my music sheets on the piano.

"Adam you can play?"

"I dabbled in it a bit. I'm rusty."

"I thought it sounded beautiful."

"What piece is this?"

"Oh it's just something I wrote. It's not much."

"Wow and she writes music. What else don't I know about you?"

"There isn't much to know"

"Well I know you write amazing music and you apparently can sing."

"What do you mean apparently?"

"People kept telling me what an amazing voice you have. But I haven't heard it."

I didn't want to sing. I haven't in a while and I love singing but I didn't want Adam recognizing who I was. I guess I could sing a slow song that is different from what I normally do.

"Ok what should I sing?"

"It's up to you. You're the one with the voice."

I sat there a thought for a minute.

Beautiful by Christina Aguilera. It was an amazing song and I had the sheet music for it.

I found the music and asked Adam to play.

I haven't sung this song in I don't know how long. The sound of the piano was amazing.

I started to sing and I forgot how good it felt. And for those few minutes, I felt normal.

Nobody screaming my name, no loud music blasting in the background. Just me Adam and a piano. It was peaceful.

I finished singing and went into my own little world.

I thought about Adam. How he grew up so normal. I thought about how if I lived here, I might not be who I am today. I could've met Adam earlier. I would've had friends, memories.

I thought about not having pressure on who I date and who I'm wearing at events.

Me and Adam would get married and have four kids. Our parents would get together on holidays and everything would be perfect...
