The Amethyst Ring (A Hunter Hayes Fanfiction)

Chapter 2

Isabelle's POV

I wake up really excited for the concert tonight. I'm not a super fan AKA "Hayniac" like Jinger but I am a big fan of Hunter so it will be really cool to meet him. But I'm just hoping I won't have to call 911 on Jinger passing out from excitement. I'm only partially joking about that. I fell asleep on the floor and Jinger on the couch. I get up and head into the kitchen to make some coffee. As soon as the coffee starts to smell Jinger pops awake. I drink coffee to live. Jinger on the other hand I think lives to drink coffee. She always had loved it but knowing Hunter Hayes loves it too made her love it more. She jumps up off the floor and and sing songly says "Gooood Mooorrnninng." With a big smile on her face. "Isn't it beautiful today?" She asks with a little giggle. Oh jeez. I knew she was gonna be like this today. She can be strange and weird and crazy but I wouldn't want any other person for a best friend.

Jinger's POV

I barely can focus in my classes today. My english teacher Mrs. Kinney, my favorite teacher, must have noticed because she asks me to stay after class. "You seemed...Distracted today Jinger." She says. Her warm brown eyes lock on my green ones.

"I'm sorry Mrs. Kinney."

"Is something wrong?"

"No! I'm getting to meet Hunter Hayes tonight! And you know how much I love him."

"Ahh yes I do." She says with a knowing smile. "Well congratulations Jinger. I know you'll have a great time so I'm not even going to tell you to. But I'll see you Monday." She says. "See you Monday." I reply with a smile and walk out of the university and to my car to find Isabelle waiting for me there. "What was that all about?" She asks as she settles into the passenger side. "Nothing. She just said I looked distracted." I say as I drive away. "Oh." She says. We stop at her place to grab her clothes and head to my apartment to get ready. For makeup she does this really cool blue eyeliner that looks great with her brown eyes. I just go for a little bit of simple look. Isabelle makes a little braid and wraps it over her head like a headband. I just leave my hair how it is, dark brown and curly.

"Dang girl, Hunter Hayes is gonna fall head over heels for you."

"Haha. Very funny."

"No, I'm serious! You look incredible!"

"Really?"

"Really." I look at myself in the full length mirror on my closet. Hmm...Wow. I guess I do look pretty good. "Well you look incredible too Isabelle." I tell her. "Thanks." She replys. "Well are we ready to go?" She asks. "Ready? Are you kidding me? OF COURSE!!!" I say excitedly. And we skip like giddy school girls to the car.

The Ryman Auditorium is only about 15 minutes from my apartment, but with the concert and Friday night traffic, it takes about half an hour to get there. We get there about an hour early. We walk all around and take it all in and then head to our front row seats. OH MY GOSH. The seats are center of the row too. He is gonna be right there in front of us. This is gonna be IN.SANE...

Hunter's POV

10 minutes until the showtime. Gosh this is exciting. The band's all ready out there, now I'm just waiting and doing last minute warm ups. Someone's walking over here. Oh wow they made it! "Mom! Dad!" I can't believe they made it here before the show. I run over and hug both of them. "Hi honey, oh I've missed you." My mom says hugging me tightly. "I missed you too." "Hey. You've been doing a great job on tour." My dad says giving me a hug. "Oh sweetie, you look like you need some good sleep." Good old mom. "I know, you say say that every time you see me." She smiles and says "Well you do. I'm gonna come over tomorrow evening and make you some chicken and sausage gumbo." I smile at the thought. Mmm my favorite food. I hug them again and then someone in my ear piece starts talking to me. "Hunter, 3 , minutes until showtime. Time to get in place." "Okay! I gotta go! I love you guys! See you tomorrow!" I get a glimpse of the crowd. Wow. It looks packed. I still can't believe this is my life, that I get to do this almost every night. It's everything I ever dreamed of and more. The very beginning of the song starts and I run up on stage. Everyone screams and shouts. It truly doesn't get any better than this...

Jinger's POV

Oh my gosh. He's real. It's him. It's just..AHHHHHH!!!! He's doing Wild Card. It's perfect. He's perfect. Just I don't even know what to do. During Wanted when he gets up from the piano he comes by and touched me and Isabelle's hands. I screamed as he was coming close and he looked right at me and smiled. I swear my heart stoped functioning. He ended with I Want Crazy. Me and Isabelle got confetti all in our hair. But the best part was when he was throwing out guitar picks Isabelle caught one! She gave it to me though because she knows how much that it would mean to me. We're walking to the meet and greet now. My heart is racing out of my chest. I'm having a hard time breathing as well. I'm not even joking. We're last in line so there's about 50 or so people in front of us. Time ticks by really fast yet really slow. Finally everyone else has gone and it's just us. And there's Hunter. Oh my gosh.

"Hey, you guys were in the front row! Nice to meet you. What's your names?" Hunter asks with his perfect smile and I can't seem to move or speak. "Nice to meet you! I'm Isabelle." I snap out of it and say "J-Jinger." He smiles and says "That's a unique name." "It is- I mean thank you! I mean, oh my gosh I'm sorry. I'm having problems talking right." Hunter laughs and says "Hey it's fine." "I'm sorry I'm just a HUGE fan of you." He grins and says "I'm glad to hear that. Thank you." "It's really awesome to meet you, Hunter." Isabelle says. "Thanks. It's awesome to meet you guys too. I love getting meeting my fans." He says, but the whole time he's looking over at me. Why is he doing that? Wait does he think I look- No. Don't even go there. "Well you know what? I have a while before I have to go so come over here and sit down and we'll talk for a little." He says looking at his watch."So tell me about yourselves"

"Well I'm studying for a degree in fashion. I'm an only child. Jinger and me have been best frien since we were 12. We're both from Walnut, Mississippi. We moved to Nashville to go to college." Isabelle tells. "Why Nashville?" Hunter asks. "Um well. I want to be a singer and Isabelle wanted to go with me so..." "Wow really? That's awesome!" He replys a little excitedly. "Thanks. I perform at this little coffee shop every Saturday afternoon."

"Wow. What's it called?"

"Grande Dreams & Java Beans. They're kinda a little palce people perform at so hence the name." I say with a blush and a smile. "That sounds like a really cool place." He says looking at me. We look at each other and it's just silent for a second. Isabelle clears her throt and then Hunter asks other stuff about me. I tell him about my 14 year old sister and my 12 year old brother Lillie and Sam. I tell him how I can play guitar, piano, mandolin, ukulele and violin. He says I must be pretty good if I can play the violin. We laugh about how he can't play it. He asks how I got my scar on my arm. I tell him how I was stringing my guitar and I turned to grab something and one of the strings cut my arm. Finally Isabelle asks him "So with the tour being over what are you gonna do next?" "Well I'm gonna just take a liitttle break for about 2 weeks before I start working on stuff for a new record." "What are you gonna do in that spare time?" I ask. "Just relax and explore Nashville and around here a little." He says with his little smirk that kills me. He says he has to get going so we get our pictures with him. When l are leaving he hugs me and Oh.My.Gosh. I have no words for how it makes me feel. Just all warm and tight and perfect feeling. This night was PERFECT.
