Hollywood Love

Chapter 1: Meeting You

Loren's POV

It was the night of my first concert. I was excited, but I was also sad. I mean, it was my first concert and I'm sad that Eddie can't be here to watch me perform. Eddie's my boyfriend. He's everything I could've ever wanted in someone; brown hair, hazel eyes, amazing body, and most importantly - someone who shares a bond with music like I do.

2 years ago, I signed a record deal with Hollywood Records. That's where I met him, and I'll never forget what he was wearing when I first laid my eyes on him. He first caught my eye in a blue button-up long sleeve shirt, a black leather jacket, and jeans. The first contact we ever made with each other was through a flirty smile.  Ever since, we've made music together, traveled  together, and took on the music industry as one of Hollywood's most loved couples.

As I'm trying to calm my nerves, Kelly screams, "Loren, come on! We got a show to do!" Anxious as ever, worried that I wouldn't get the reaction from people that I wanted, I went to my loved ones for comfort. Backstage, I hugged my parents, my best friend Mel, and Eddie's dad. I told them that I loved them and I thanked them for helping me with my career. The stage manager called me and told me it was time. I was SUPER happy, excited, and nervous all at the same time. What if no one's ready to open up to what I have offer? I've put all my music out, and majority of my singles have been top-charted, but for some reason, when it came to the stage, I always held back. But, I knew that eventually I had to fight the urge to stand behind the curtains and be scared.

It was time. I walked on stage in my glittery, silver dress and my casual uggs and I greeted the crowd.

"Hey guys! How is everyone doing? I'm a little nervous, not gonna lie." I chuckle and awkwardly look at the crowd. There were so many people; from my family, to news reporters, and most importantly, my fans. I heard the crowd cheer and my nerves ease as I hear my best friend Mel scream my name.

"Woo!! Go Loren!!" I smiled at her and blew her a kiss.

"Well, this first song is a new one, about that boy I'm in love with. Y'all know his name. This song is called Dream. I really hope you guys like it!!"

I prepared myself and closed my eyes for a moment. I took in all the anxiety and threw it to the side for this performance. I was singing about the man that I love, the only butterflies I should have are the ones that I get when I think of him.

As I opened my eyes, prepared to sing, I pause. I look in the eyes of someone I didn't expect to see.
