The talent show was over, and Nora and Ethan were on cloud nine. They had performed flawlessly, and the audience had loved them.

As they walked offstage, they were met with congratulations and praise from their friends and classmates. Nora's nerves had disappeared, replaced by a sense of elation and pride.

Ethan grinned at her, his eyes shining with excitement. "We did it, Nora!" he exclaimed. "We absolutely killed it out there!"

Nora laughed, feeling happy and relieved. "We sure did," she said. "I'm so proud of us."

As they made their way through the crowds of well-wishers, Nora couldn't help but notice the attention Ethan was receiving. Girls were flirting shamelessly with him, and he was lapping up the attention like a cat in cream.

Nora felt a pang of jealousy, but she pushed it aside. She knew that Ethan loved her, and she trusted him completely.

But as the night wore on, Nora began to feel overwhelmed. The attention was suffocating her, and she just wanted to go home and relax.

Ethan, sensing her unease, took her hand and led her outside. "Hey, you okay?" he asked, looking at her with concern.

Nora nodded, feeling a bit better now that they were alone. "Yeah, I'm just a bit overwhelmed," she said.

Ethan pulled her into a hug. "I'm sorry," he said. "I know it's been a crazy night. But I'm proud of us, and I'm proud of you. You were amazing out there."

Nora smiled, feeling happy and content. "Thanks, Ethan," she said. "I couldn't have done it without you."

As they stood there, wrapped in each other's arms, Nora knew that this was what it meant to be in love. It was about supporting each other, being there for each other, and making each other feel special.

And as they walked hand in hand back to their dorm, Nora knew that she was exactly where she was meant to be.

The next day, Nora and Ethan were mobbed by fans and well-wishers. They were hailed as heroes, and their names were on everyone's lips.

Nora was overwhelmed by the attention, but Ethan took it in stride. He was used to being in the spotlight, and he knew how to handle himself.

As they walked across campus, Nora turned to Ethan with a mischievous glint in her eye. "You know, I never thought I'd say this, but I think I'm starting to enjoy all this attention," she said.

Ethan grinned, his eyes sparkling with amusement. "I knew you'd come around," he said. "You're a natural-born star, Nora."

Nora laughed, feeling happy and carefree. "I think you're biased," she said.

Ethan shrugged, his grin still plastered on his face. "Maybe," he said. "But I know one thing for sure – you're an amazing person, Nora, and you deserve all the attention in the world."

Nora's heart melted at his words, and she knew that she was one lucky girl to have Ethan by her side.
