SHINING STAR Chapter 9 Brian took Nick to the side and explained to him about what happened. Nick nodded as he walked over to her as the other guys left to go get ready. "What’s your name?", Nick asked as he sat down next to her. "Danielle", she said softly looking up as the tears fell down her face. "Danielle, that’s a nice name", Nick smiled as he wiped away her tears with his thumb, "Do you know why that picture I drew looks like you?" "No, why?", she asked. "Because it is you that I drew", Nick told her, "I’ve been looking all over for you" "I’ve never seen you before though", Danielle said confused. Nick looked at his watch and reach in his pocket. "Here take this backstage pass, I want to explain everything to you after the concert", Nick told her as she nodded and took the backstage pass. "Can I have one for my friend?", she asked. "Yea sure", Nick nodded, "Be right back". A few minutes later he came back and gave her another backstage pass. "Thanks", she said with a small smile as they both stood up. Nick reached out and gave her a hug. "I’m sorry that girl had to do that to you. We can discuss afterwards if you would like to take charges against her", Nick said as he looked straight into her eyes. "Thanks", Danielle nodded, "I guess I’ll see you after the concert then" "Yeah c-ya then", Nick smiled as she walked back out to the arena to her seat. Throughout the whole concert Danielle noticed how much Nick kept watching her. "So what do you think is going to happen between you and Nick?", Ashley asked as the concert ended. "What do you mean?", Danielle asked not wanting to admit anything. "Well do you think you two will have a relationship together or are you gonna say that long distant relationships don’t work again?", Ashley asked. "Well they don’t", Danielle told her. "Danielle will you just stop, you two coming together maybe it’s faith telling you he’s the right one, I mean you did say that he told you that picture he drew was really you", Ashley said. "Yea", she sighed, "Come on lets go backstage now" *Backstage* "Hey you feeling better now?", AJ asked as he walked up to Danielle and Ashley. "Hi AJ, yea thanks. I’d like you to meet my friend Ashley. Ashley this is AJ", Danielle responded. "Hi", they both said at the same time. "Hey Ashley would you like to go check the rest of the backstage area and meet everybody?", AJ asked wanting to give Danielle and Nick time alone to talk. "Yea sure", Ashley nodded. "Where’s Nick at?", Danielle asked. "Go straight down that hall and it’s the second door on the right", AJ told her as Ashley and him left. Danielle walked down the hall and reached the door. She stood there for a moment and then knocked the door as she heard Nick, "Come in" "Hi", she answered as she walked in and shut the door behind her. "You better?", Nick asked. "Yes, that was a great concert", Danielle smiled as she sat down next to him on the couch. "I’ve been waiting for you for such a long time", Nick sighed. "What do you mean?", Danielle asked. Nick explained about all the dreams with her in them and how he had images of her and the same things happened to him. "Danielle I know you have been really down lately because I know about what happened with your mother, and I’m really sorry. I want to be here for you", Nick told her. A tear fell down Danielle’s face, "She didn’t deserve to die". Nick pulled her into his arms as she broke down, he rubbed her back trying to comfort her. "I know she didn’t", Nick agreed, "Danielle life is the most wonderful thing in the world but there are some tragedies in it. There are also some great things that come into your life, and I wanna be one of them. I wanna be able to come into your life and get to know you better" Danielle looked into Nick’s eyes and thought to herself, deep down in those eyes she felt like she had known him for years, he was a truly honest, good looking guy. He wanted her in his life and she actually felt like they had something even though this was the first time she met him. "I
want you in my life too", Danielle said as Nick smiled. Danielle
smiled as well as they both leaned in and were caught in a soft
passionate kiss.
