The AMA's were in just a couple of days and I was really nervous. Obviously, BTS were attending.

I thought about it for a while and decided I wasn't going to let Justin control me anymore. He's kept me from doing so many things, and I want to meet BTS.

I mean, I'm just meeting them in a friendly way so why is it so wrong?

I'm not sure if Justin is going to attend, but I think he is. I do know Hailey is coming, however. So yeah, Justin is probably going to attend.

Victoria already picked out the perfect dress for me, which I adored. It's probably my favorite dress so far and I knew for sure everyone was going to love it.

I was currently at home and Justin was here as well, obviously. I'm in the kitchen cooking while he is watching TV. He released his album just a couple days ago and needed time to rest. Well, that's what he said. The album is doing good so far, but I don't really think he cares.

"You done yet?" he asked. "Almost." I said and he rolled his eyes. "How long does it take to make spaghetti?" he questioned. "S-sorry, I just wanted to make it perfect." I said. All of a sudden, he got up.

"W-wait where are you going?" I asked. "Out for food. Your cooking isn't that good." he said and left.

A tear unknowingly made its way down my face. I then finished up the cooking, deciding to eat alone. Maybe he's right.

I then cleaned up and did the dishes. I also vacuumed and cleaned up the rooms. Maybe this will make him happy.

When he got home, I greeted him. "W-was it good?" I asked. "Yeah, way better than yours." he chuckled. "I'm going to bed. Don't bother me. And also, make sure to sleep in the guest room tonight." he said.

"W-wait! We're renovating that room. There's nothing in it." I said. "Exactly." he said and slammed the master bedroom door shut.

I lowered my head. I then made my way to the guest bedroom, and sat down on the cold floor. I took my phone out and texted Victoria to keep me company.

After texting for a while, we texted each other 'goodnight' and I checked the time. 10:34 PM. At this point, it was freezing and the weird noises outside weren't helping.

I then lay on the floor, crying myself to sleep.

I made my way to Victoria's house, knocking on her door. I brought my dress with me. I wanted to go to the AMA's with her this year, since she was coming.

She opened the door, smiling. "Selena! You brought the dress, right?" she asked. I then showed it to her. "Of course!" I smiled.

She then let me in. "Go change in the bathroom! I'll get ready in my bedroom." she said and I nodded.

I then went to change in the bathroom, then making my way out when I was finished to be met by Victoria.

"Selena! Come here, I need to do your makeup." she said and I walked into her bedroom, sitting on the chair in front of her vanity.

"Do a natural look." I said and she nodded.

Victoria loved fashion, makeup, and styling. She actually likes to do them all, but decided to focus on fashion.

Victoria finished doing a light makeup look. She then decided to keep my hair wavy, brushing it.

Selena's makeup

"Woah, Selena!" she said and I took a look at myself in the mirror. "You look stunning!" she said.

"Thank you so much, Vic! It looks amazing!" I smiled. "Now c'mon, girl! We're going to the AMA's!" she squealed, tugging my arm.

We made our way to my car, driving to the AMA's. And if you're wondering, no, I don't take any fancy cars or anything. I prefer going in my own car.

When we got there, I stopped my car in front of the entrance, cameras flashing everywhere. "Selena, you go. I'll go park your car." Victoria said as I got out.

"Okay!" I said and began walking down the red carpet, the cameras nearly blinding me.

When I got in, I took my seat. All of a sudden, someone called my name.

"Selena!" I then looked and saw Taylor, my best friend. "Taylor!" I smiled and she came over to hug me.

Taylor and I were forced to stop talking because of Justin and his manager. Justin and his manager hate Taylor, and she has the same feelings towards them.

As much as Taylor warned me, I didn't listen to her. But she doesn't hate me and I don't hate her. We just stopped talking. And of course I miss her. Hopefully she's not mad at me.

"I missed you so much, Sel. How are you?" she asked. "I'm fine. How have you been?" I asked and we caught up. She sat beside me and we talked the whole time.

Soon, I saw Victoria making her way over here. "Taylor!" she smiled and hugged her. "I missed you! How are you?" she said. "I'm good, how about you, Vic?" she asked her.

"It's so nice to all be back together again." I laughed. "I know!" Victoria giggled.

"Hey, Sel, look!" Victoria said, pointing to the guys walking to their seats. "It's them!" she whispered.

"You guys like BTS now?" Taylor questioned. "You know, I met them once. They're really nice guys." she said.

Suddenly, Taehyung began looking around and then his eyes locked with Selena's. Except this time, he was the one to wink at her.

Selena felt her cheeks heat up then looked away. Victoria then started squealing silently. "SELENA! TAEHYUNG JUST WINKED AT YOU!" she squealed.

"You're blushing, Sel!" Taylor then said, laughing. "N-no I'm not!" I said. "Liar!" Victoria giggled.

Suddenly, Justin entered. And of course, with Hailey. However, he covered up any cheating rumors by saying that Hailey's dad wanted him to show her around since it was her first time at the AMA's.

My heart broke at the sight. But, I stayed strong and looked forward. I knew he wouldn't like me with Taylor, but she is my best friend.

"So, when are you performing, Sel?" Taylor asked. "Oh, I think I'm the fifth one." I said and she nodded. "I'm right before you! What a coincidence." Taylor laughed.

I giggled and nodded. I then looked past her only to see Taehyung eyeing me. However, I immediately looked away, focusing on my conversation with Taylor.

Soon, the AMA's started. We focused on the performances. But right after the first performance, Taylor went backstage to get ready for hers. She bid me and Victoria goodbye and left.

The whole time, I felt eyes on me. I looked a couple rows behind me to see Justin eyeing me angrily. I looked at him confused, but he just kept looking at me with that angry look on his face, so I just turned around.

I then looked to where BTS were seated, only to see Taehyung eyeing me again. I gulped, looking away once again.

Soon, I had to go backstage as well. I told Victoria and hugged her before going backstage and getting ready for my performance. I saw Taylor, who was getting ready to make her way on stage.

'Good luck' is what I mouthed to her and she smiled before making her way on stage. I got ready for my performance next while she performed.

I gulped, feeling nervousness rush through my body. I've been doing this for years, but knowing Justin and Taehyung were probably going to be staring me down really made me freak out.

I soon calmed down and Taylor made her way off stage, giving me a hug. "You're going up soon. Don't be nervous, okay? You got this." she reassured me.

"Thanks, Taylor. You always know how to cheer me up." I said and she nodded.

Soon, the staff motioned to me to go on stage.

The curtains were currently closed, but were going to open once I got in position.

I gulped nervously. "You got this, Sel!" Taylor smiled and I held onto my mic, walking on stage. I got in position and made a thumbs up to the staff and they opened the curtains.

I started performing my latest single, imagining myself anywhere but here, singing.

I gave my all into my performance, occasionally looking to Justin only to see him still looking at me angrily.

I then looked at Taehyung for a split second to see him smiling and singing along.

I finished up my performance, mouthing a 'thank you' to the audience who cheered loudly for me. I then walked off stage, immediately getting another hug from Taylor.

"You did great, Sel!" she smiled. "Thanks, Taylor." I smiled and she smiled back.

We then made our way back to our seats. I greeted Victoria and sat down in the middle, between her and Taylor.

BTS were up next apparently, performing their new song which of course broke records once again. But I'm happy for them. They deserve it.

Luckily, I don't think Justin knows about me liking BTS. If so, that'd be a disaster.

Smiling throughout their performance, I clapped for them once it was over. I noticed some of them were looking at me, so I just smiled and continued clapping.

Right after, I made my way backstage because I felt suffocated. So, I went to an empty room. But apparently someone was following me and opened the door angrily.

Justin stormed in, placing a hard slap across my cheek. "YOU SLUT!" he yelled but not too loud so no one would hear.

I stumbled back, holding onto the couch. "W-what?" I stuttered. "I SAW YOU LOOKING AT THOSE GUYS FROM BTS! YOU SLUT, I SHOULD'VE KNOWN YOU LIKED THEM!" he yelled, coming closer to me, practically stomping.

"W-wait Justin! I don't like them in that way!" I said. "Stop with the bull, Selena. You know you're lying." he said, placing two more slaps across my face.

My eyes teared up, I felt like I was going to pass out. "I'm not lying, Justin!" I managed to say.

But it was too late, he hit me.

"Hey guys, I'm gonna go to the restroom." I told them and they nodded.

I then made my way backstage, asking where the restroom was. "It's down that hallway, then take a left and then a right." the lady said and I thanked her.

I followed her instructions, firstly taking a left. But suddenly, I heard yelling.

I know it was none of my business, but the voices sounded awfully familiar so I peeked my head in.

What I saw shocked me.

Justin Bieber, who me and the other members looked up to, placed slaps on Selena's cheek. He then hit her after yelling at her.

"YOU LIKE THOSE GUYS FROM BTS? THEN LET ME TEACH YOU A LESSON." he said and anger filled my body, but not also that but fear.

Selena then turned pale. She looked like she was about to pass out any moment. I then ran for help.

"HELP!" I yelled at some staff. "HE'S HITTING HER!" I managed to say and they looked at me confused, then following me.

They walked in to see a passed out Selena with Justin right on top of her. They then pulled him off of her and called security to escort Justin out of there.

I then rushed to her side. "Is she okay?!" I questioned. One staff then made her way to Selena's side.

"She's going to be okay. She'll wake up soon. You stay here while we go report this." she said and then left.

Everything was happening so fast, I didn't know what to do.

I helped her onto the couch, bringing a chair next to it so I could watch her.

Suddenly, I heard a familiar voice calling my name.

"Tae? Where are you?" they called. It was Jungkook.

I then made my way out of the room and caught Jungkook's attention. "There you are!" he smiled, but he noticed my serious expression.

"What's wrong?" he asked, concerned for his best friend. "He hit her." I said.

"Huh? Who?" Jungkook asked, confused.

"Look." I said, bringing him in and he saw Selena's passed out figure.

"W-who hit her?" he stuttered. I sighed.

"Justin."

"WHAT?!" he gasped. I nodded. "I'm shocked, too. He slapped her too many times and even hit her." I said.

Jungkook scoffed. "And to think I looked up to him. He's an asshole." Jungkook said.

I then walked to Selena's figure. "Her cheeks are still red. A bruise is forming on her face, too." I said.

Jungkook then sat down at another chair, rubbing his face out of frustration. "I can't believe this..." he said.

I sighed, sitting down in a chair beside him. "Me neither." I said.

"How long should we stay with her?" Jungkook asked. "I'm gonna stay with her the rest of the award show. I witnessed what happened." I said and Jungkook nodded.

"I'll go now. I want to inform the members of this." he said and left.

I then stayed with her longer until suddenly Taylor Swift and another girl made their way in the room.

"W-what happened?" Taylor asked. "Justin hit her." I said.

"That bastard." Taylor said. "He hit her?!" the other girl said, her voice cracking some.

I nodded. Then, I noticed it was the girl at the concert with Selena.

I can tell she was shocked to see me. "What happened exactly?" Taylor asked.

"I was walking down the hall, then I heard yelling so I checked. I know it was none of my business, but the voices to me were very familiar so I did. I then saw Justin slap her two times and then hit her." I explained.

"She should've listened to me. That man is evil." Taylor said.

Suddenly, the door opened revealing the rest of the members. They looked shocked. "Sorry to bother, but can we come in?" Namjoon asked and Taylor nodded.

"Is she okay?" Namjoon asked. "She'll be fine. She probably just needs to rest." I said.

"I'm gonna have her stay at my place tonight." Taylor said.

Suddenly, Selena woke up. Her eyes fluttered open, looking at her surroundings.

When she saw all of us, her eyes widened. She then held onto her bruised face.

"Ouch. W-what happened?" she questioned.

"Selena Marie Gomez. WHY didn't you tell us he would HIT you?" the girl questioned. "Taehyung witnessed him not only slap but HIT you." she said and Selena's eyes met mine.

"I-I'm sorry..." Selena said quietly. "Selena, I know you don't know us but know we're here for you. We'll be here to debunk any false rumors that may spread." I told her.

Her eyes glistened looking at me. "Thank you..." she slightly smiled. "You're gonna stay at my place tonight and as long as you need. You're not staying with that monster." Taylor said.

"Thanks, Taylor. But you don't need to-" Selena said. "No, you are coming with me and that's final." Taylor said.

Then, Namjoon made his way towards Selena. "Selena, we're really sorry about what happened. I know it's none of our business, but if you need help, please reach out to us." he told her. "Thank you, I will." Selena smiled.

Taylor then helped Selena up. "You're coming with me." Taylor said. But while she helped her stand, I slid something in Selena's pocket

"Thank you guys for your help." Selena thanked us and then Taylor helped her out of the room.

The only person left besides us was now the other girl who was Selena's friend.

She then turned to face us. "Nice to meet you guys, I'm a big fan. My name is Victoria." she introduced herself. "Nice to meet you, Victoria." Namjoon said and smiled.

"So you were the one who came with Selena to our concert?" I asked her. She then nodded.

"Selena has always wanted to meet you guys, ever since 2017. Unfortunately, she couldn't. And well, that reason is obvious now. She actually loves you guys. She's a fan. So, I brought her to your guys' concert." she explained.

And for some reason, I blushed the whole time. Jimin and Jungkook seemed to notice, smirking.

After some talking, Victoria had to go. "Thank you guys for talking to me! Bye." she smiled, waved and then left.

I then sighed. That was a whole lot that just took place. Poor Selena. Was all I thought.
