DISGUISE

Chapter : 18

Waiting outside *Edward texted Autumn*
Autumn ran downstairs excitingly and hugged Edward.

Thank you so much, you're the best*She said*

Edward blushed the moment she suddenly hugged him.

And you're looking really beautiful as always *Edward said nervously and smiled*

Edward's Pov: Control Eric, you're being so awkward, why you're getting nervous huh? Calm down, otherwise, you'll ruin everything.

Edward sighed

Ready to go? *Edward asked her*

Yes, let's go *Autumn said happily*

Is his interview somewhere nearby?*She asked*

Cz we are walking, that's wh*She said but paused as she was in awe after seeing a really expensive car standing right in front of her*

I parked it here so nobody could notice, you already know why *Edward said*

Yeah, I get it, I guess Eric's company loves their staff, first that mobile and then this Car.
I think I'd try to apply for his company for a place of a video editor *She said and giggled*

And I will love to work under you *Autumn said while getting inside the car*

Under me?*Edward asked her the moment he got inside the car as well*

Under your supervision...I meant *She said awkwardly*

This is Susan's car by the way, the company doesn't give sports cars to their staff, but, I'm saving money to buy one*Edward said while driving*

Susan? Eric's makeup artist? I must say she has a really good taste in..in Cars
I mean look at this sports car, wow *Autumn said excitingly*

You guys are so close like you're a video editor and she's a makeup artist still she let you use her car and earlier you mentioned that Eric and you were in the same room, discussing the interview, it sounds so positive and good that the company has a really friendly and positive surrounding *she said and looked at Edward*

Yeah, I love working there*Edward said awkwardly*

Do you think he's gonna remember the t-shirt incident?*Autumn asked him*

Ofco.., *Edward paused as he realised that as Edward he knows nothing about that incident*

What t-shirt incident?*he asked while driving but still managing to snatch a few glances of Autumn from the corner of his eyes.

Oh! I never told you about it*Autumn said and giggled*

I was wearing a Mrs.Anderson t-shirt...*Autumn started telling him the whole story*

Well, that's too funny to forget tho *Edward told her as they reached that
place where Eric's interview was*.

Take this pass and go over there and show them this pass, they'll let you in *He said in a rush*

Wait? Where are you going? I thought you were coming with me *She said while holding his hands to stop him*

Edward looked at her lovingly.

I have to go to backstage, it's a live show Autumn, I have to go *he said politely*

Autumn pouted..
Okay then, see you after the interview *She said*

Edward was looking at her lips when she was talking, he was totally distracted and stopped paying attention to whatever she was saying right after the moment she pouted like a kid.

Edward's pov: She has no idea how cute she's looking right now, I think this was the reason why I was constantly thinking about you back then.
How can someone actually resist?

Edward? Edward, are you listening to me? I said we'll meet after this interview okay?*Autumn asked him*

He came out of his thoughts and said

Yeah, for sure and I've my eyes on you and only you *He said and left*

Autumn giggled and walked toward the place where the interview was.

Meanwhile.

Eric, come on now, be fast. I literally lied to your manager about where you were just before the interview.
Get ready as fast as you can *Susan said worryingly*

Forgive me this time, I won't do anything stupid again.*Eric said and changed his clothes as soon as possible*

His music has helped so many people to change their lives in a positive way. He is not only a really handsome looking guy but also a very talented young man, ladies and.. and a few gentlemen *Audience laughs* please welcome Eric Anderson!! *The interviewer welcomed Eric*

*Audience applauded and started cheering for Eric*

Hi! Hi.. Hello everyone, thank you..thank you, really nice to see you all, thank you, love you guys *Eric appreciated the audience's warm welcome by bowing to them.*

Eric looked at each and every audience member and said thank you by facing all the sides just to know where Autumn was sitting.
The moment he saw her, he took his seat and waved at the audience again to say thank you.

The interview had started and Eric was so connected with his fans that there wasn't any celebrity vibe there.
He was talking to the audience as they were asking a few questions as well.

Eric didn't miss any chance to look at Autumn every time he got a chance to look at that side where Autumn was sitting.

Every time he looked at Autumn she thought he was looking at the person he was talking to and not exactly at her.

Finally Autumn got her chance to ask him a question.

Eric, do you remember your first album of the year award? If you don't mind, can you share how you were actually feeling at that moment *She asked*

I was looking at my Mom. I wanted her to go and say things on my behalf. I cried on stage, you guys might have seen that too *he said*

Yeah!*Autumn said*

But I cried even harder backstage, I wasn't expecting to win, you know, I was so nervous*He said*

But all thanks to you guys for trusting me for supporting me no matter what *he said whilst looking at the audience in a heavy voice as he got emotional*

It's good that you remember those precious moments *Autumn said*

Oh! I remember so many things, you know *he said and grinned*

Autumn instantly knew that he was talking about her and that t-shirt incident.

Thank you so much for answering Eric *she said quickly and sat down*

After a while.

Eric has gifts for you all but two lucky people are gonna get a ring from one of his personal collections.

*Audience started cheering*

Every audience member had a seat number and Eric was the one to pick those two random seat numbers to present them those rings.

The first number he chose was totally random and the second one was no doubt the seat number where Autumn was sitting.

Come on down ladies! Come on stage *The interviewer said*

We'll take a break here, don't go anywhere.*The the interviewer said as there was some problem with his collar mic*

Edward! Where are you? I can't do this, I'm so freaking nervous*she texted Edward*

Eric was looking at her whilst she was texting on her phone.

Eric immediately gestured Susan to check his mobile. As he never carries his personal phone during the interviews.

You can do it. I know my baby 💓*She got a reply from Edward*

I know my baby? *she mumbled while smiling yet being totally confused*

Thank you so much for reading. #SpreadLove #RespectEveryone #NeverGiveUp <3 :). Love you all.
