Chapter : 19
Autumn went on stage, accepted that ring but for the first time she wasn't thinking about Eric even after standing right in front of him.
She was flustered by what Edward texted her, unknown of the fact that it wasn't Edward but Susan who had his phone with her. She was looking at Eric, being there physically receiving her gift but mentally she was thinking about Edward.
Eric was looking at her trying to catch her attention but Autumn's eyes were finding Edward.
Looking for something? *Eric asked her*
A place to hide maybe *she said and giggled*
Why is that?*Eric asked her*
I don't know maybe this is what happens when you start getting feelings for someone, the moment you have this strange feeling, I don't know how to explain it but it feels good *she said being really happy*
Oh! So you're in love? *Eric asked her as the show has already ended and Eric was trying to have a little conversation with Autumn while going backstage*
Well...I guess*Autumn didn't finish what she was saying as Eric's staff was calling him as they were about to leave.
Thank you for this beautifully present Eric *Autumn said and walked towards the exit with the audience*
Autumn was standing on the main gate, as she was about to call Edward she saw a girl who was not more than 15-16 years old.
Hey..hey why are you crying? What's your name*Autumn asked her politely*
I'm Elise, I'm a really big fan of Eric, I saved my pocket-money to attend this interview because I didn't get a chance to buy his concert tickets and even after waiting for years I couldn't get a chance to talk to him, to ask him questions*she said whilst sobbing*
Autumn's POV:
Even if I'll tell her to relax and not think about it, even if I tell her that it's a very small thing, she won't understand, she's a teenager and obviously a really big fan.
Even I act crazy when I see Eric tho I ain't a teenager, what should I do..
I think I should text Edward, he will help, he works with Eric.
Autumn texted Edward to meet her outside the main gate urgently.
Edward took a while as Eric needs to get fully dressed up and escape the sight of his managers to sneak out with the help of Peter and Susan to meet Autumn as Edward.
Autumn was unable to wait anymore as she couldn't see that girl crying.
Thank you for asking, I think I'll go now *Elise said while wiping tears off of her face*
Wait..Elise..Autumn said*
Elise turned around and looked at her.
Gimme your hand *Autumn said*
What?*Elise said in confusion*
Come on!!*Autumn said while smiling*
Meanwhile....
Autumn seemed a little distracted today*Eric said while wearing his blue lenses*
Oh! Yeah, I forgot, Autumn texted you, here's your phone *Susan said while putting down his phone near him*
Yeah, I know and I gestured you about that*Eric said*
Nah!not that one, I replied to that text, there's another text *She said*
Another?*Eric said and looked at his phone*
"Meet me outside, I'm here at the main gate, it's a little urgent, can you please be quick"
She's saying it's something urgent, Peter let's go...*Eric paused for a while*
Susan? *Eric said*
What do you mean by "I know my baby"*He said the moment he read that text*
What's so wrong about it? I thought couples text each other like that *Susan said*
We're not a couple now, I just confessed last night, not even properly.
Oh, man! no wonder why she's saying that there's something urgent *Eric said annoyingly and ran outside to get inside the car*
Handle it like a man *Susan teased her and giggled*
Shut up!*Eric yelled annoyingly*
Susan looked at him and waved whilst giggling.
Yeah, drop me there, drive through that exit I don't want my managers to think that I'm not there *Eric told Peter*
He walked towards Autumn hesitantly and tried to put his hands on her shoulders but kept pulling back his hands.
Au-Autumn*Edward said*
Edward, you're late*She said*
I know, I was just.. I mean listen, Autumn, I sent that by mistake, I mean I was behind the camera I wanted to write "bestie" but I don't know...how it was..I..uh!!*Edward struggled with his words as he was so embarrassed*
Autumn was looking at him trying to say something but Edward kept apologizing.
Edward*Autumn said and crossed her arms*
Oh! I'll..I'll drop you, wait a min *Edward said*
After a min, he was back with his car, Autumn went inside the car and said " I didn't call you urgently because of that text, it was because of a girl *Autumn said*
What? Who? *Edward asked her while driving*
Autumn told him everything, that she wanted him at that time because she thought he could help her make Elise meet or at least just say hi to Eric and that she gave her ring that she got as a present from Eric to Elise.
But aren't you a really big fan of Eric? You gave your ring that's a big deal *he said as the car was waiting for the red light to turn green*
Yes, I'm but, she was so young and I was able to feel her, you know I've been through that phase, being so emotional about those things which I shouldn't have even considered.*She said and sighed*
You're so sweet Autumn, you understand people and that one ring doesn't even matter my whole collection is yours *he said*
He suddenly stopped the car our of pure nervousness of what he just said.
Autumn looked at him in confusion and asked "Your collection?"
I mean... Mine's not really expensive but I have got a few rings as well.
I'll gift you that *he said innocently*
Autumn looked at him and giggled while grabbing his hands.
It was all dreamy for Edward, he could listen to her laugh all day while adoring her.
Edward smiled shyly and started to drive again.
I don't want any gift from you Edward, I just want you *Autumn said*
Edward looked at her in shock..
I mean I just want you... to be ..to be there for me ..you know *She said hesitantly*
By the way, was that actually a mistake like autocorrect or something?*she asked*
Of course, why would I text you like that? *Edward giggled awkwardly*
Autumn's POV: I thought you were about to confess properly this time Edward, I thought it was more than just liking each other.
I wanna talk to you and tell you that I feel like I'm in love with you but I'm scared for no apparent reason.
But, I guess if we're not meant to be with each other then we'll find our separate ways. If not today then maybe someday.
Edward's POV: I want to tell you Autumn, that how I feel about you, that how I truly feel for you.
I have been in 2 relationships before and I lied to you about them.
I don't know why people eventually leave me?
And I've even started to doubt myself, I don't even know if this is right or not, I need you Autumn and I know what I'm doing to get us together, will eventually tear us apart.
Trust me I'm just waiting for the right moment. I hope you will understand me.
But, I guess if we're meant to be together then we'll find our way to each other. If not today then maybe someday.
Thank you so much for reading. #SpreadLove #RespectEveryone #NeverGiveUp <3 :). Love you all.
