A shy grin appeared on her lips as she looked at him, but then she was practically tackled by a five-year-old girl.
After over an hour of meeting and talking to fans, Rose headed back to get changed for her first set. She wore cowboy boots with a sparkly mini-dress, her signature outfit. The lights went down in the arena, and Rose took her spot beneath the stage. In just a few moments, she would be lifted onto the stage to start singing.

Tyler felt a little overwhelmed sitting in the fifth row, surrounded by screaming tweens. But when Rose was lifted onto the stage and began her set, he just marveled at her.
She was beautiful and talented and completely his type. But then he had to remind himself that she was a superstar and he was a history major at a community college. It would never, ever happen.

Rose sang for almost two hours, changing about four times, and singing just about every song she'd ever written. And every time she walked down the catwalk and past the fifth row, her eyes found his. It wasn't often she saw really hot guys with their little sisters at her concerts. And there was something about him... But the thing about being famous is that you could basically get anything you wanted. So, before her encore started, she sought out her bodyguard and told him to get Tyler and his sisters and give them a backstage tour until she was able to meet up with them.

Bonnie and Mary Alice were pretty certain their life couldn't get any cooler. Finally, the youngest of their big brothers had proved useful. They took dozens of pictures, ooing and ahhing at everything while Tyler followed along, amused.
Rose didn't have to do any of this for them. He liked that she did, if only because his sisters would be talking about this for eons.

Her bodyguard took them onto the stage, still set up from the concert, but no one was in the arena. That's where Rose joined them, wearing the same outfit from her meet and greet - including the boots from Tyler's store.
"So, what'd you guys think?" she asked, tilting her head.

Bonnie and Mary Alice started chattering excitedly with her. Tyler shoved his hands in his pockets, sneaking glances at her.

Rose told them to go and walk out onto the catwalk, leaving her somewhat alone with Tyler. "I, uh, hope it wasn't too crazy for you with all the tween girls..." she said with a chuckle.

He laughed a little, watching the girls pretend to strut down the catwalk. "Well," he looked over at her, smiling, "I think I get why they're so crazy about you."

She blushed a bit, shuffling one foot around on the floor. "By the way, I don't think we were formally introduced..." She stuck her hand out to shake his. "I'm Rose Howard."

He laughed, taking her hand and holding onto it. "Tyler McGowan. Nice to meet ya, Rose Howard."

"Very nice to meet you, too, Tyler McGowan," she replied, smiling over at him. "You seem like a really good big brother. Your sisters are very lucky to have you."

That made him blush, and he didn't let go of her hand right away. "Well, ya know. I do what I can." He finally let his hand slip away from hers, meeting her eyes. Then he glanced away, shiftin on his feet. "We, uh...should prob'ly go. Yer prob'ly tired."

"Oh, well, yeah, it's getting kind of late, I guess..." She cleared her throat, trying not to stare at him. "Maybe I'll see you around?"

He glanced back at her, sending her a sheepish grin. "If ya were anybody else, I woulda' asked ya out already."

"But I am like anybody else. I mean, when you take away the fans and the concerts and the photoshoots, I'm just a girl who's following her dream. My dream just happens to come with paparazzi attached..." She wanted him to ask her out. She wanted to go on a date with a boy who lived a normal life.
