after the crowd cheered for the mysterious newly-formed couple, the concert continued on. they were truly amazing live, though this isn't the first time i've seen them. sky's eyes were glued to the band as they performed, as she mumbled in awe, probably from the shock of me asking her this way.

she knew every word, to every song, continuing to sing and sing for each song that played. by the end i had my arms wrapped around her waist, my head perched atop of hers. we swayed for the remainder of the concert, as she enjoyed it, i let out a sigh of relief. 

she was mine.

as the concert came to a close, we saw the guys air kiss to the audience, as the lights dimmed quickly. they jogged off, hot and sweaty from the stage lights.

"congradu-fucking-lations!" they screamed as they hugged sky, she started blushing, looking over to me with admiration in her eyes.

"we really gotta go, our manager is going to kill us" matthew shouted as he was jogging away from backstage. "but guys!" he yelled again, grabbing our attentions, "we'll see you again, right?"

i look down at her, her eyes wide and a smile spread over her face, "of course! now go, before you get in trouble," i motioned for him to continue running. "now, shall we go?" i said to sky.

she nods, slightly blushing, as she took a final glance to the stage.

as we were walking out of the venue, it was calm. on cloud nine, as i looked to my girlfriend, we merged with the rest of the crowd leaving. most people cars had been driven to a parking garage, so we all had to wait together to get our cars back from the valets. all of us in a little huddle, as i hold sky exceptionally close, making sure i don't lose her.

we waited in a line for a while, only a couple people leaving at a time, but as we continued to wait, something strange happened. people started whispering, yet not too quiet that i couldn't hear them. "did you hear what matthew said in the concert? ruel's here, he's somewhere, we should try and get a picture!"

it got worse, it grew.

"ruel? like ruel?! he's here!"

"where, did i miss something?"

"he has good music, he's gettin' ready for another tour i heard."

"oh my god, i love him! where is he again?"

"mom, no! we can't leave if ruel is here!"

and it just kept coming.

i was thankful that skylar didn't look like anything was happening, in her own little world, swirling her foot around in the dirt path below us. it's a miracle she hasn't heard my name around, it's an even bigger miracle no one has noticed me. didn't know that people knew who i was, or at least to this extent.

"hey, baby, we're going to cut the line a little" i whispered into her ear, seeing her gorgeous meet mine. she nods, taking my hand so i could lead us to the front.

pushing through the crowd, quietly mumbling 'sorry' to people i pushed really hard. we just needed to get out of here.

he pushed and twisted past many people, pulling me along for the ride. "ruel, we're not in a rush, slow down" i tried, but all he did was walk faster.

i wasn't sure what was racing through his mind, but he was so determined to get us out of there, and fast. once he finally pushed through the crowd, he handed the valet his ticket, matching his key set.

as the guy ran to get his car, he hastily tapped his foot, gripping my hand. "are you okay, bud? i'm not sure why you're so tense..." i tried again.

"fine, sky, don't worry about me" he brushed me off, sneakily looking back towards the group of people every once in a while. and finally after minutes of standing with his hand squeezing mine, the car pulled up to the curb. "finally" he sighed out in relief, as he pulled me to the car.

opening the door for me, and then jogging to the drivers side door, he moved much faster than his normal pace. starting the car and pulling away from the curb, his shoulders finally stopped being so tense, and his face softened as he glanced to me a couple times.

"you're my girlfriend" he spoke shyly.

"hm yes i am, you're stuck with me, bud" i giggled, looking at him again. his messy hair, slightly sticking to his forehead from sweat, cheeks slightly flushed.

he reached over taking my hand in his, bringing it up to his cheek, "i wouldn't want it any other way" he mumbled against my hand, giving it a soft kiss.

placing my hand where it was originally, and laying his on my thigh as he drove us into the night. "today was a good day, ruel, thank you" i said looking through the windshield of his car at the stars.

he didn't say anything as he kept driving, eyes on the road...

and i could've sworn, i saw fear flash in his eyes for a moment.
