Forever Special

Part One
Justin’s POV
I sit in my seat, watching her as she and Christina start to sing “Like a Virgin”. I am so proud of her. I remember when we were on MMC, her idol was Madonna. And now she is performing on the same stage as her idol. Even though she has done so much in life, she is still the down to earth girl I fell in love with when I was twelve years old. Over the years, she grew up from a shy girl to a beautiful woman. I fell more in love with her every time I see her if that’s possible. We still talk to each other, unlike what the tabloids have been saying, sometimes I wonder why she doesn’t hate me after all that I’ve put her through. I knew the reason that she took that six months off was because she wanted to stay out of the spot light for a while, just until she knew that they could focus more on her work, and less on our break-up, but I put her back in the spot light when I talked about our relationship. She took all the nasty things that were said about her like a lady, she didn’t l
et it bring her down. When I talk to her a few days ago, she was so nervous about performing tonight. She was afraid that she wouldn’t do Madonna justice. It reminded me of when she first came on the tour with us. She was afraid that she would forget the words to the song or miss a dance step, but as soon as she starts to perform, she is in another world, you can see she was born to do this. And just three years ago at this exact same award show, we made our first appearance as a couple. I was so happy that day, I finally could tell the world how much I love this woman. When she performed that night, she shocked millions of people around world. As I see Madonna kisses her, then Christina, needless to say, I am shocked, I didn’t know about that part of the performance. My mind froze for a few seconds. After I collected myself, I saw a camera in my face. You know it’s weird after all this time, they still think that something is going on between us, either it is about us hatin
g each other or that we are back together. I guess you can say tonight is bittersweet for me. I have seven nominations to look forward to, however I don’t want her to feel awkward. I didn’t want to put her in the spot light like that during her break, I mean I know how much she treasures her privacy and the video is the farthest thing from the truth, but I needed to make the best out of our break-up. I needed the publicity for my solo album. You know, the funny thing was that after the video aired, she wasn’t mad or angry, she was just sad and confused, that’s when I realized that I have broken her heart again, I betrayed the little bit of trust that she still had for me.
