"No way, no no no."
But Lorie walks away, and the boys start playing the notes of 'Only you'. Matt takes my hand taking me to the center of the stage and whispers "it's just us, love." I get lost in his eyes as he starts singing as the lights go down.
We sing the chorus together, looking each other in the eye, forgetting how many people are watching us.
The song ends and Matthew picks me up and kisses me.
"Oh, wow! This was the most emotional final of all editions! We have reached the end of this evening, sadly. Thank you so much for being with us and thanks to DarkHeaven for delighting us with their performance." Lorie thanks us, and we get off the stage.
"Honey, you were fantastic! If you ever get tired of SMD, come and work with us!" Lorie says hugging me.
"I don't think that's going to happen, Lorie, thanks for everything." I hug her, as we leave backstage.
"You were amazing!" Gabriel rejoices as they all hug me together, making me laugh.
We leave the building and after more photos we get into the limo heading to the hotel.
"You were phenomenal, baby!"
"Nah. I didn't know how you would react to the novelty, but you were great!"
"I'm still shaking love, and I'm so proud of you!"
"Of me?"
"Yes, the way you handled the evening and your nerves."
I laugh as I nestle in his arms. "It's my job, Matt," I whisper.
Arriving at the hotel, I walk toward the elevators as Matt greets the boys, and I see Damian approaching.
"Hey, babe, congratulations on the award."
"Thank you," I replied, passing by him without stopping.
He takes my arm and pulls me toward him. "Wait, baby."
"Don't touch me!" I tell him trying to free myself, in vain.
Matthew arrives in a rage and pushes him away. "Get your hands off my girlfriend!"
"Pfff, you just waste your time, she'll drive you crazy before you get into her panties. But she gives amazing blowjobs."
Matt's punches Damian's jaw. Chris doesn't have time to stop him.
"Come close to us or touch her again and you'll be my fist’s best friend!" He punches him another time. "And don't you dare disrespect her ever again!"
"You'll regret it, I'll sue you!" he says, wiping off the blood of his lip.
"Do it and you'll find all your secrets on the front page tomorrow!" I tell him.
"You don't have the balls to do it."
"Try me!" I tell him as he walks away with his hands raised as a sign of surrender. Matt is shaking from anger.
"Love, hey calm down, he's not worth it." I tell him taking his face in my hand, forcing him to look at me.
"I guess it's your ex!" He says furiously, yelling out of anger.
