purple rain: hollis x fem! reader pt. 3
plot: it’s been a week since y/n heard from hollis. not sure why but she isn’t pushing anything, she’s giving it time. later that night, around like 5pm, her phone bings with a notification.
hollis: “what are u doing tonight? <2”
Y/N looks at the notification, she’s hit with a mix of confusion and excitement. she hasn’t heard anything, silence of his end. Y/N has reached out every so often but never heard anything back. now all of a sudden hollis wants to hit her phone up.
Y/N: “i don’t think i’m doing anything.”
hollis: “i’m preforming tonight, i want u 2 be there.”
hollis: “be here at 8, show starts 9 sharp. i have a pass waiting for u here.”
her heart skips a beat, he had a backstage pass just for her, this felt like a movie. hollis send her the address to the venue. it was a big venue, not like an arena, but big enough for like 1,000 people max. she didn’t expect him to be such a big artist, she had no idea who he was until the night they met. to her, he just seemed like a normal guy.
Y/N throws her phone on the charger then darts to get ready. she starts with her outfit, casual fit, sweatpants with a gray washed baby tee. she puts on her sneaker wedges with her fur hood leather jacket. she does her makeup putting on her glasses after, curling her hair, loose curls draped over her shoulders.
she looks at her phone, time passed by like clock work. it’s 7:30 at this point, she takes a few outfit pictures in her mirror, she grabs her bag then heads out the door. she hops in the car quickly heading off to the venue. when she arrives Y/N walks up to the front of the long line, everyone staring at her confused why she’s cutting the line “hollis said you had a backstage pass for
me.” she says to the security at the front of the building
the fans in line start to gossip about Y/N, the crowd was full of jealousy and envy
“is that his girlfriend?”
“why is she getting a backstage pass? how do i get one?”
“shes probably dating hollis.”
“i wish that was me, she’s so lucky”
her face flushes with embarrassment, she’s not used to all these eyes on her. the security gives Y/N a nod then escorts her into the building, the fans gaze fading away. one of the guard lead her back to the dressing rooms, knocking on hollis door.
Y/N walks through the door, locking eyes with hollis through the mirror in front of him. it felt like forever since she met his gaze. silence echoed in the room, it wasn’t awkward, just refreshing “hey hollis” Y/N greets with a smile
“well, hello. i’m surprised you actually showed”
she raises and eyebrow “why is that?”
he touches up his eyeliner, continuing the eye contact through the mirror “well, because i like, kinda ghosted you.”
“you’re a busy guy, i don’t blame you.”
he turns around slightly, looking directly at Y/N “it doesn’t excuse it though.”
“it’s nothing on you, i think you’re amazing, it’s just me.”
she walks up to the chair he’s sitting in, standing over him “i’ll try and understand”
he smiles at her before turning around back toward the mirror. she stands behind him watching him do his makeup for a bit longer before realizing the time “where do i go when the show starts?”
“side stage, perfect view for you.”
she smiles before heading toward the door “well i’ll see you out there!”
she closes the door behind her, she immediately meets the gaze of another guy “hey! you’re Y/N, right?” he asks
her eyes widen, she got stunned with the sudden presence “oh, yeah i am”
“i’m sorry for scaring you, i’m roman, hollis friend.”
she smiles warningly “nice to meet you”
“you can follow me if you want, i’m preforming first.”
she nods in agreement, following roman to the stage. she sets up her spot standing in perfect view of the stage, but not in a area where the crowd could see her. 9pm hits and roman rushes out, all hyped up. he puts in so much energy, hypnotizing the crowd with every movement. Y/N feels a presence lurking behind her, as she turns around, her eyes meet with another boy. she smiles at her before approaching, the music is blaring but he find a way to chat with her “hey i’m nate ! you friends with hollis?”
she smiles “yeah, you could say that”
“you’re very beautiful by the way.” nate whispered in her ear
“thank you!” she whispered back
as roman’s set comes to an end the music settles down, he rolls off backstage “that shit was so hype bro” roman daps up nate
“you sounded amazing bro” he pats roman’s back
“how did you like it Y/N?” roman asks
“not the typical music i listen to, but i enjoyed it a lot.” she said
“dope” roman smiles at you before dashing back to his dressing room
some time passes by, Y/N and nate are conversing, getting to know each other “yeah hollis then started living with me for a hot minute, i helped him out of a dark spot.”
“wow thats wild, you’re a good friend for that”
nate looked at his watch “oh shit, i got to be on in a minute. watch this crowd go crazy”
Y/N watched nate position himself to run out, the
music built up, once the beat dropped the crowd went insane. Y/N felt like she was in a movie, one where the plot was set but she felt so full of power she could do anything. as nate preformed she realized how full of energy these guys were, how dedicated they were to get the crowd doing exactly what they wanted. she was in awe. as nate’s set came to an end he ran out, he was created by roman and hollis, they were so sneaky, Y/N didn’t even know they were there “you absolutely demolished that nate” hollis daps nate up
“i tried my hardest guys, thank you!” nate pushes his messy hair out his face
“you always go crazy dude!” roman says patting on his back
“your music is amazing to, i haven’t heard anything like it.” Y/N smiles
“i appreciate ur words guys, thank you.” he smiles
time passes and eventually its hollis time to shine. the music starts to build up for him to go on “now it’s my time, they’re all gonna flip out”
hollis laughs then gets into a position to run out to greet his die hard fans, Y/N give him a smile before he starts. the venue is filled with intoxicating synths and beats, his fans tweek out every time he gets close to him. she can’t help but feel a sort of jealousy, wishing she got the fan girl experience, for some reason she couldn’t forget that feeling. she’s need a fan girl for other artists, but she wished she could experience this moment from a different perspective. his song ends, the venue went quiet for a minute, silence that felt deafening “this song is for the girls, one in specific.” he looks backstage directly at Y/N her heart skips a beat. the crowd goes wild as he starts playing his song, whiplash.
the exact same song he played her the night they met, that really drunken night that the both of them fight not to forget “looks like he’s serenading you, how do you feel Y/N? all these girls feining over him, but your the only one on his mind.” nat asks
she blushes and shrugs a bit, not in a dismissing way but she was surprised about the situation she was in “this is really new, i didn’t know who he was until the night i met him. my last prediction was him being a star.”
roman and nate giggle and both put an arm around Y/N “well your apart of the boys now, how does that make you feel?” roman laughs
Y/N laughs mutually with the boys “i could get used to this.”
the set ends and hollis darts out, right toward Y/N “how did i do ?”
she smiles at him, brushing the hair out of his face “you did amazing hollis.”
the boys nod in mutual agreement at his question. hollis looks at roman and nate, without a word they knew what they needed to do, they started heading out to the back door to prepare meeting the fans “we’re gonna go say hi to the fans real quick but we can meet you back in the lounge area when we’re done, if you wanna stay and hang out?” hollis offers
“of course, i’ll meet yall there. Y/N agreed
“see you soon?” hollis asked
“see you guys” she waved before heading to the backstage lounge
