A Spy love story

Chapter 8

After class at my apartment,owned by the agency, the FCSP and a hologram of my obnoxious big brother, Leo emerges as I answer.
" dad told me you are dating your suspect. How's that going for you?" He says purposely trying to annoy me.
" I know you don't care so why ask." I say annoying right back.
" dad said to not get too close to your suspect"
" this coming from the man who ended up marrying his suspect and didn't even know she was a spy the whole time"
We both laugh at how dad and mom met and fell in love.
" his exact words were ' these people are not to be trusted so don't let them fool you for it may cause you your cover or even worse your life" he says pretending to be my father saying it humorously. We laughed once more but I knew that my dad had much more experience in the field and those words were much more serious than Leo had made it seem.
" thanks for the laughs and the warning and good luck with your suspect." He seemed shocked when I said it so nicely for this was one of the rare times we were getting along.
" thanks. Bye" he says still seeming shocked and I can't help but smile.
He ends the call and the hologram vanishes.
It was almost time for my surprise from Joshua. I got ready being less dolled up and more covered up since it was December and winter had come in full force. I always knew New York as the place were seasons were most significant and I had my proof. I was very excited to see Joshua once more but Leo's well my dad's warning kept trying to rise to the top of my brain but I tried to push it back down so I could enjoy my surprise with Joshua.
When he came for me in his black BMW I was stunned at how pretty, clean and shiny it was. He said he got it for his 18 th birthday when he saw my expression and it seemed to amuse him. The car drive took quiet a while but it was not boring for Joshua had downloaded music and made a mix for me to hear and it had the most beautiful Christmas songs on it. When we were close he told me to close my eyes so I did. When I was allowed to open them we were at the annual Christmas concert of the year and Joshua gave a tall man with a clipboard two red and green tickets before allowing us to enter.
" Omigosh, omigosh, omigosh" I quickly see as I spin around looking at the absolutely beautiful Christmas lights and decoration that adorn the walls, poles, the ceiling and the large stage with a band at the bottom section.
" I'm glad you like it" he half smiles with his perfectly white teeth.
" like I love it" I say and mean it for my music taste was the one thing I didn't lie or change in my profile.
" come let's seat at the back. I love VIP seats."
" I love them too. How did you get these seats or even tickets." I ask inquisitively as we walk to the back of the grande hall. Joshua shows the man two VIP passes and we were escorted to a seat in the decorated area.
" my uncle said if I got my grades up he would give me tickets to any show at town and so since I wasn't all bad at academics I tried harder than usual.
" you did that for me. Thank you and thank your uncle for me."
" you can thank him yourself after the show. Just where this and go backstage you can even meet your idols." He says gleefully handed me a VIP backstage pass.
" just when I thought this night couldn't get better"
When said the emcee walks onto the large stage.
" Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls, fans from all over the world, the time has come that you have all been waiting for the 2014 annual Christmas concert. And we never disappoint." The emcee says with a microphone in his hand as he prances across the stage energetically stressing words and gesticulating and two big lights start swirling around as the audience cheers.
" I won't keep you waiting then, I say this concert has officially commenced." The emcee says and a loud drum roll is played by the band members.
The concert is amazing and Joshua places his hand over mine during Mariah Carey singing All I want for Christmas
And I welcome it happily completely forgetting my father's warning and following my instincts and heart. It seems to make him smile and I can't help but love every time I see his beautiful smile. The concert was filled with dance pieces to Christmas songs that made me dance in my seat. I was sure that Joshua would judge so I stopped after I realized he was steering but then he joined my dance and we both just laughed at ourselves. When I first met him, I did not expect him to be so nice. I guess that what I get for judging people but I am surely not complaining.
After the concert Joshua and I went backstage where Ariana grande, Katy Perry, Taylor Swift and Mariah Carey were standing and talking I felt like I was going to explode.
Joshua pushed me towards them seeing my excitement and I ended up talking to them.
" hi. I am sorry to interrupt" I say.
" no. It's fine we were just saying how wonderful our fans are to come out and watch us" Taylor said.
" I am fans of all of your songs. I love blank space and back to December and your judging on the Voice so much. I love Bam Bam and Problem, I love your voice and all your songs Katy and Mariah " I say to all of them.
" you seem like quite the fan" Mariah says.
" yeah I want I career in music really badly and i love singing and playing instruments but mostly music"
" you sounded like me before I got a record deal" Ariana says sweetly.
" really ." I say a bit too excited.
" well show us what you got" Katy says smiling.
I sing sections of my favourite songs done by them. They seemed impress for they told me afterwards that they loved my voice and that they would talk to there managers. They each gave me cards, then left. It became officially the best might of my life. It was true that I had always wanted to be a singer and my dad agreed that I get the opportunity he would speak to the agency I would get to live out my dream.
