Hunter Hayes Imagines

Queen

It's homecoming week of senior year! You're so excited and emotions within you are running wild as the rumor spreads around school that Hunter might ask you to the dance!

You think back to your first day of high school. You were that shy, new girl who just moved to town. Hunter was your first friend. He was there for you whenever nobody else was, even your parents. But ever since Hunter got that record deal, school has been different. You still have lots of friends, thanks to Hunter, but there is still that vacancy that can only be filled by Hunter's presence. You feel lonely even though you are still surrounded by lots of friends. You wonder why you feel this way.

Do I think of Hunter as something more than a friend? Am I in love? Maybe? Or maybe it's just the strong feeling of missing Hunter that is screwing with my mind? Oh well. You shake off those thoughts and return to thinking about the possible chance of Hunter asking you to homecoming.

It was Wednesday, the third day of homecoming spirit week. You throw on your mix-matched clothes and pink tutu and get ready for the inevitable pictures for the school yearbook. You lost your appetite from your excitement about Hunter and drive off to school, speeding more than half of the drive there. You pull into the parking lot and run to class, waiting for the daily announcements to possibly announce a question specifically for her from Hunter.

Nothing happened. Maybe all these rumors weren't true? Am I naive to believe Hunter would actually return from Nashville just to ask me to homecoming? I must be getting pranked! Why I am so foolish? You look down at the desk your sitting in and continue to listen to the pointless morning announcements.

The only thing you knew would be fun today was the pep assembly! Your school pep assemblies are the best! Loud music and the whole school chanting and cheering always makes you cheerful! When class ends, you run with a few other girls to the gym where colorful lights and booming dance music were going off. The bleachers are getting crowded and you wedge yourself in with just a bit of leg room to fit. At 10:00 exactly, the ASB comes out with their microphones and the student body goes absolutely crazy. They knew what time is was...it was time to announce the homecoming court and queen!! Last week you found out you were nominated for homecoming queen so your heart was racing from excitement!! The ASB president, Luke, goes through his pep assembly rituals and gets the crowd loud and crazy as he calls all the homecoming queen nominees to the center of the gym.

Luke - "(Y/N) come down here!!"

You smile and try to make your way down the bleachers, trying not to step on anyone's hands in the meantime. You meet in the center of the gym with the other 4 nominees and the crowd goes silent.

Luke - "Now that we have all our nominees gathered, it's time to announce the homecoming queen!!! Drum roll please..."

The crowd stomps and makes a thundering noise!

Luke - "The homecoming queen is.....Rachel!"

You smile at Rachel and try to hold back your tears. Your happy for her but now your day feels like it is spiraling down fast as you didn't win homecoming queen and you don't have a homecoming date. All your senior year homecoming expectations imploded all at once, but you keep it together as you congratulate Rachel on her win. As you start making your way back to your seat, Luke yells at you.

Luke - "(Y/N) come back here! We have a little surprise for you!"

A huge smile overwhelms you as you return to Luke and await this surprise!! From the back entrance of the gym, a small stage is wheeled out with a piano on it. Hunter walks out from behind the stage and meets you in the middle of the floor. He is dressed in a nice black tuxedo with his hair nicely combed back. You feel awkward as you stand there dressed in you spirit day tutu.

Hunter - "I know it's been a while since we last saw each other, but I hope what I'm about to do makes up for that a little bit!" Hunter smiles and grabs your hand, leading you onto the little stage.

Hunter starts playing a song on the piano. You recognize it. It's called "Wanted". The last you heard the song was when you were helping Hunter write it a few moth ago in his garage. Hunter plays the piano so beautifully and tears starts forming in your eyes even before he begin singing. The crowd is in awe and you can see the hearts and jealousy in some other girls' eyes, but you simply ignore them and focus on Hunter. As the chorus came up, the tears are streaming down your face and you are drifting away into another world! All the sudden you realize Hunter changed something in the song! He was singing the chorus but he altered the lyrics!

Hunter - "I wanna wrap you up, wanna kiss your lips I, I wanna take you to Homecoming! I wanna call you mine, wanna hold your hold at Homecoming, and never let you forget it, baby I, I wanna take you to Homecoming!" Hunter stops playing the piano and stand ups next to you. He pulls out a rose from his tux and kneels down. "(Y/N) will you be my date to Homecoming?"

You - "Yes! Yes, Hunter, yes!" Tears are swelled up in your eyes and running heavily down your cheeks and a smile is widely spread across your face!

Hunter stands up and you look each other in the eyes, both smiling and teary-eyed. You come closer to Hunter and hug him tightly like you never want to let him go. After a long hug and the crowd cheering for some time, you both loosen the hug and pull back. You still have your hands on Hunter's shoulders as he wipes the tears off your cheeks. You look down kind of embarrassed because he saw you crying.

Hunter - "You don't have to hide your tears (Y/N)!" Hunter leans in and kisses you on the lips.

You stomach becomes full of butterflies and you sort of smile as you kiss him. The crowd starting "ooh"ing and "ahh"ing at you two and you let's go of each other's lips. You and Hunter rest your foreheads on each other and your noses still touch.

Hunter - "I missed you when I was gone!"

You - "I missed you too!"

Hunter - "And (Y/N), you will always be my Queen!"

You smile with some more tears and kiss Hunter again.
