Five

I was lying if I wasn't nervous at all. Even though I already set the mind that it was just for fun, but a part of my mind hopes that I could make it in the top 10 at least.

Part of the reason I wanna be nominated in the top 10 is that I could give a surprise to her. All candidates would sing a song, if they were nominated in the top 10, they had to perform one more song for the final.

Blair didn't know what was my hidden song, but I'm pretty sure she would love it.

Somehow, Blair keeps telling me it doesn't matter I would be in the top 10 or not. At least I should be proud of myself to try and get a 50 bucks voucher as a little reward for our little celebration and a date.

She even joked that she would still have a date with me if I didn't make it. We seemed like a couple but we didn't have a real date as a typical couple does. Most of the time I worked and she was busy with her studies and we only spend our Sunday chilling and relaxing at home or shopping.

I chuckled at her jokes and I got a slight bump from Blair's shoulder as she teased "Are you overexcited that you're gonna have a mini-concert later?"

I knew she was trying to ease my tension and whatever she did to me which were magically work. She never knew she could always calm me down or enlighten me in an effortless.

A smile crept on my face as I bumped her shoulder as a return and said, "Of course, I can't wait to see a beautiful smile on your face while I'm singing on the stage."

She snaked an arm around my shoulder to pull me closer, and the hair of my skin effectively erupted when her minty breath fanned my ears. A shiver sent down my spine when her seductive voice near my ear, "Don't make me kiss you right in the middle of the mall. I'm quite enjoying watching your face as red as a ripe tomato. So adorable."

I knew my face was already in crimson as I gently hit her chest and muttered, "Stop making fun, idiot. I'll get distracted."

"Oh dear, you already blushing. What if I strip off your clothes if we do that, you know? I'm quite worried you'll get high blood and passed out."

"Stop it, Blair! Are want me to die?" I whispered sharply for avoiding attention from the crowds by knowing my face already heated furiously.

She burst out laughing and gently plant a soft kiss on my cheek and said softly, "Okay, I'm sorry, darling. I love to tease you." I huffed as she gently squeezed my cheek and said softly, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, baby. I'm sending my lovely luck to you now, okay?"

I bit my lips to suppress myself not to grin like an idiot and only nodded my head as responded to her.

She rested another hand on the other side of my shoulder to turn me to face her. My eyes shifted to her hazel eyes and they look tender along with her matching smiley lips.

With the view of her in front of me, everything seemed like not a matter for me anymore. As long as I had her with me, I eventually got calm and more than ready.

"Just do your best, and you'll always be my only favorite singer, baby," she said with a wide smile.

I wanted to kiss her so badly, but I subtle not to do it in the public. I linked both of my hands with hers on my shoulder and smiled at her, "You'll always be my most favorite audience. And all I want to sing is for you and me."

Blair's smile grew wider and kissed my cheek once again and said, "Now go. I can't wait to listen to a mystery song from you."

"You'll love it," I assured.

Once I heard the announcement of the competition, I pulled her into a hug as she wrapped her arms around me, and gently caressed my back. After a brief and soothing embrace, we pulled away and I bid her goodbye before rushing into the room to prepare to perform shortly.

"So, let's welcome our upcoming candidate! Sofia Wang!" the host announced and the claps erupted surrounding the audience seats. I took a deep breath before walking out to the stage and aimed at the mic to get ready.

Once I stepped near to the mic, the crew started helping me to adjust the mic as I gave a nod and waved to the audience while my eyes searched the hazel one.

Finally, my eyes reached hers, I couldn't help but smile at her. She was waving frantically in a playful manner and playing a frank kiss at me like a super huge fan to her idol. I subtle myself not to laugh at her goofiness and I started strumming my guitar and singing the song.

"If you ever find yourself stuck in the middle of the sea
I'll sail the world to find you
If you ever find yourself lost in the dark and you can't see
I'll be the light to guide you"

This song I already told her I'd sing for the competition since this was one of our favorite songs. I only practice this song when she was around with me, but the mystery song I practice without her with me. She tried a lot of tricks to lure me to be practice with her but she failed.

I was quite proud I could do that.

Even though I tried giving eye contact to the judge and the other audience, but my eyes only have my lovely hazel eyes girl sitting at the corner and singing along with me. A warmth sent to my heart whenever she seemed to enjoy my singing like how much I enjoyed singing to her.

While I sang the lyrics, I flashed back within this month how we spent our time together. Although weekdays were busy, we practically like living together.

Since the first night we shared the same bed, she didn't go back to her house. Again, I had advised her to go home but she stubbornly refused me.

She always made sure I got fed before going to work, a surprise lunch occasionally and my stomach always get filled in the late night before we slept.

With being pampered by my lovely brunette I had to wake up early to jog for keeping my shape. This earned a complaint or whine from her. She always said I was underweight and she wanted to gain a little weight on me.

I had a great metabolism from my mum, we hardly grew fat after putting so much food into our frame and this earned complain from the others. Well, to stay healthy and keep in shape, I'd never skip jogging every morning. Except for my precious Sunday. I'd prefer to get up late.

While I almost finish singing the song, my eyes shifted to my favorite hazel eyes again. The eyes were full of spark as I subtle to overly smiling when she was giving me thumbs up with a toothy grin. Too adorable. I stood up thanked the audience, make a bow before returning to the room again.

We didn't wait more than 10 minutes and we had to line up at the stage to wait for the announcement for the top 10 candidates. In the meanwhile, I turned my attention to the brunette she was mouthing I miss you as I chuckled at her.

Whenever she was with me the time seemed like fast-forwarding to me as I just realize 9 candidates had been nominated to the final and only left one candidate to be selected.

"Now I'm gonna announce the last nominee." I host said with a broad smile as the dramatic music started running a few beats and a spotlight lit on me. I was surprised as Blair mirrored me with her hands covering her mouth.

"Sofia Wang, Congratulations!"

The candidates next to me gently patted my arms and congrats me as I smiled and thanked them before I joined the nominees.

"For the candidates who are not be selected, don't give up. You're always welcome to come back again next time. Ladies and gentlemen, let's give respectful applause to their wonderful performance." The host said with a toothpaste commercial smile as the audience clapped and the candidates started leaving the stage.

While I stepped down to the stair, I glanced at Blair once again. I was lucky that I didn't take the wrong step and fall after I saw her. She was such a tease! She was blowing a sexy kiss and winked at me when I was looking at her just now.

Who could resist this hottie angel? I doubt that.

Waiting for my next performance like hours and I was the last nominee. I was getting nervous to sing this song because the lyric of this song was so related to us.

My heart skipped a beat when my spare time was ended after I heard the call from the host and I knew it was time for me to start the show.

My heartbeat was beating fast while I was taking every step to the stage and I finally reached the mic again. This session was slightly different, the host will ask a few questions from the nominees which I hope I could skip.

"So, what song are you going to sing?" The host remained his trademark broad smile reminded me of Ken's smile from the Barbie.

"Umm... I prefer to leave it as a surprise." I said with my voice slightly trembling because of nervousness.

"Oh, that's such a lovely surprise." the host said as he pointed, "This person must be someone dear to you." he chuckled and said, "Good luck to you. I assured all the audience will be thrilled by your surprise." He gave a nod before he walked to another corner of the stage and left me alone to be ready for my song.

The light dimmed and everyone was quiet. I could hear my heartbeat beating fast as I silently took a deep breath and searched my chill pill again. While my eyes locked at my favorite hazel eyes, my pulse eventually became steady and I strummed my guitar. Her eyes immediately lit up with a wide grin after she knew the song I was going to play.

"Oh, her eyes, her eyes
Make the stars look like they're not shinin'
Her hair, her hair
Falls perfectly without her tryin'
She's so beautiful and I tell her everyday"

Yea, we loved Bruno Mars, who wouldn't?

"Yeah, I know, I know
When I compliment her, she won't believe me
And it's so, it's so
Sad to think that she don't see what I see
But every time she asks me, "Do I look okay?"

I started relaxing when Blair was grinning from ear to ear and she was singing along with bobbing her head. In the meanwhile, she giggled to herself when I made a quick wink at her.

"Her lips, her lips
I could kiss them all day if she'd let me
Her laugh, her laugh
She hates, but I think it's so sexy
She's so beautiful and I tell her everyday"

I knew I was blushing when I was singing these few lines without tore my gaze away from her. She bit her plump lips as butterflies erupted in my stomach whenever I flashed back we shared numerous soft kisses, heated kisses, wet kisses, or whatever kisses whenever we were all alone.

I sang with a smile whenever I thought she would ask me to meet her in the bathroom during my working break time just for a quick make-out. She could be cheeky whenever we make out, but I would never complain about that. She was a gem.

I was getting on my own whenever I sang in front of her, she always had a wide grin with her perfect white teeth just like the first day she watched me sing. I adored her tender face whenever she was sitting quietly and listening to me.

"And when you smile
The whole world stops and stares for a while
'Cause girl, you're amazing
Just the way you are"

I finally ended the song and I hope she would relate the song I delivered to her. Every single word from the lyrics was exactly how I thought about her for me. Claps and cheers erupted the hall as I subtle myself to laugh when Blair was excitedly bumped the audience next to her who was around mid 40 ladies stared at her dully.

"She's my girlfriend! She's damn amazing! I'm fucking proud of her." She squealed as the lady only made a face and thought Blair was being ridiculous.

I stood aside and waited remained nominees to line up next to me and wait for the host to announce the winner.

"Well sing everyone." The host said as he walked toward us and added, "Everyone is amazing and I'm ready to announce the winner." he chuckled, "I guess everyone of you must be looking forward to getting the prize. Somehow, all of you already have your own winner, right?"

The audience cheered out loud as I chuckled softly when Blair was shooting a frank kiss at me. I mouthed thank you to her as she grinned at me.

"The winner is...." the host paused dramatically and again the dramatic music started running with the spotlight taking the role to light on every one of us. When the music slowly disappeared the light reached me and the music stopped.

After a beat, the light switched to the nominee next to me and the cheer and applause erupted.

"Jordan Somerhalder! Congratulations!" the host said as he indicated the boy next to me as he seemed overwhelmed as I congratulate him. He thanked me and walked past the other nominees and he was welcomed by handshakes and embraces from them.

We all clapped and watched him claim the prize and shared a brief thank you note to his family, friends, and love.

Even though I was a little disappointed, but I was glad I tried. When I turned my attention to my lovely brunette she already stood up and walked nearer to the stage as the audience started leaving as well. It was a sign that the competition is over.

I was the first person walking down the stair since I was the final person singing on the stage and also the nearest to the exit.

Before I was taking my final step on the ground I yelped when I felt my wrist was gripped and I was tugged to a corner.

My lips were enveloped by my favorite luscious lips and I effectively nibbled them as we moaned lightly in our mouths.

I circled my arms around her neck as she pressed me closer to her with her arms pressing my lower back.

We knew our tongue battling would take us hours and we eventually pulled away instead of getting complained about by people to ask us to get a room.

We panted and giggled at our aggression as we remained our arms circled each other.

"Damn, you're such a tease. I'm gonna jump on the stage to attack a long kiss with you. You never know you're so fucking breathtaking while you're singing." Blair said with a dorky smile as I chuckled at her.

"So, did you mean it?" I asked and smirked at her.

"Of course, do you think I'll lie to you?" she arched an eyebrow at me.

I shook my head at her and I asked in my small voice, "No, I mean when you told the lady next to you about me. Did you mean it?"

She bit her lips and gently pressed my lower back closer to her and she said shyly, "I mean it. But, are you ready for this?"

I bit my lips and draw myself closer to her with our lips brushing and said, "Yes, I'm all yours."

She pressed her lips to mine and sucked my lips a few beats before pulling away and grinned, "Aww! That's wonderful, my girlfriend. Again I'm so proud of you."

"Thank you, baby. I'm glad you were there for me to finish the songs I wanna sing to you." I gently pecked her lips.

"Of course. I'm your super fan. Come on, let's get the family pizza set and celebrate your accomplishments." she grinned and asked softly, "What do you think, darling?"

"It sounds perfect for me." I agreed.

"Good." She said as she removed her arms from me as I did the same. She entwined our hands and we seemed too excited to claim the family pizza set for our little celebration.

Even though I didn't win the competition, but I'm glad she was surprised by the song I sang to her. Also, we officially became a couple which was more than everything.
