The things I did

Who Is This Guy?

"I just don't understand how he got here so fast. There is no way he came here from LA" Ashley says as she tries to put the pieces together.

Mary-Kate shakes her head, "It doesn't make sense. He must have been on the East Coast already but why is he here?"

As you all stand around the kitchen trying to put the pieces together, Sarah gets a text from her assistant, Maggie.

MESSAGES

Maggie: The paparazzi is on your tail.
*attached is photos of you all throughout your stay in NJ*

"Shit" Sarah says to herself.

You look up at Sarah, "What is it?"

Sarah let's out a sigh as she hands you her phone, "Maggie texted me, the paparazzi has been following us since we got here."

You take Sarah's phone from her hand and study the pictures Maggie sent her. You see pictures of you all arriving at the airport, you and Sarah sitting outside of the arcade, Lizzie shoving Justin into the water, you and Matt riding around on the Jetski's, and a picture of Lizzie having a panic attack on the boat.

"Jesus fuck...." you say as you look at the pictures, disgust taking over your body.

You pass the phone to Ashley and Mary-Kate, their expressions dropping as they see the pictures of Lizzie.

"Oh those assholes" Ashley says as she stares intensely at the picture.

"This is probably how Robbie knew we were here" Mary-Kate says as she shifts her focus to you.

You run your hands through your hair as you pace around the kitchen, trying to process everything.

"Okay, so we know we have some dirty paparazzi on our tail. Now we need to find out who this guy is" Justin says as he watches you pace around the kitchen.

You come to a sudden realization, causing you to stop dead in your tracks. You quickly return to the counter where everyone is huddled and grab Sarah's phone from Becky's hand.

"Hey! I was looking at-" Becky begins to say before you cut her off.

"Shush" you say as you look over the pictures again that Maggie sent.

"Asshole" Becky mumbles to herself under her breath.

You scroll through the photos and stumble upon the photo that was taken of you and Sarah outside of the arcade. You place the phone down on the counter in front of Sarah.

"Here" you say as you place the phone down.

Sarah looks down at her phone with a puzzled look, "What? I don't get it. Im looking at a picture of us, what's so special about this?"

"Sarah, it's from the arcade. Remember? We left the arcade and sat on that bench. We saw the guy while we were out there" you say as you point out the familiar surroundings in the photo.

Sarah's mouth drops open as her eyes widen, "Oh my god, you're right! That guy must be following us around."

"What guy?" Holland asks, becoming concerned.

Sarah turns to face Holland, "While we were in Long Beach Island, (Y/N) and I stepped out of the arcade to talk on a bench. While we were talking, we spotted this guy taking our photo in the distance. We didn't think anything of it at first, we thought it was just some dirty paparazzi."

As Sarah explains the situation to Holland, Ashely comes to a realization.

"Wait, you say this guy was taking pictures of you and (Y/N)?" Ashley asks.
