it's now the beginning of december. the band, along with laura and a few other apparently important people that i haven't bothered to learn the names of, are in santa monica, california for the people's choice awards. we were nominated for the "favorite group" award.

we're in some fancy hotel to get ready for the event. we're all in different rooms of the suite as we get ready. i looked in the mirror as i buttoned my shirt. i was wearing all black; a black button up, a black suit coat, and black pants. instead of wearing typical dress shoes that go with a suit, i had on a new pair of black converse. along with my suit, i had silver rings on most of my fingers.

after i was completely ready, i headed out of my room. i saw that the other three were still getting ready in their own rooms. jessie had stepped out of her's to call laura in there for whatever reason; i think it was so that she could tie their tie for them.

i made my way to saylor's room, and i knocked on the door a few times. it was silent for a few seconds before she called out "come in!"

i placed my hand on the door handle, and i turned it to open the door. i didn't look at her yet as i walked into the room and shut the door behind me. when i looked up, my breath caught in my throat.

standing in front of the mirror, saylor was slightly adjusting the red dress she was wearing. her hair was straightened and laying across her back; the purple in it was fading out, but it still looked good. the dress fit her perfectly. as my eyes traveled down, i noticed that she was wearing stilettos. i swallowed as i continued to take in her appearance.

saylor turned to look at me. her breath seemingly caught in her throat too as she took in my appearance.

only slightly getting over my breathlessness, i held one of my hands out towards her. "c'mere, darling," i spoke softly as my eyes continued to take over her body.

she walked over to me. once she was close enough, i grabbed her waist and pulled her even closer. it took me a moment to adjust to the fact that, due to her heels, we were practically the same height now. she was maybe only an inch or two shorter.
