you've got to be kidding right? now the whole internet knows that something is going on between niko and i. millie sent me the photos - this isn't good.
i clicked on the comments, they all think we are actually dating.

i sat down on a stool in my kitchen and kept scrolling through the comments. 'how am i going to fix this?' i thought to myself. i see a message pop up on my phone, this time from ethan (from sidemen)

i had a shower and just turned off my phone. i go downstairs and watch some movies and decided to try and go to sleep. no matter how hard i tried to sleep, i just kept thinking about those photos.

i woke up in the middle of the night to my phone ringing, it was sharky. i pick up the phone, still half asleep.

There are some photos going around of Nailea and I, just a reminder not to believe everything you see on the internet. We are not dating, we are just good friends. I hold Kenny's hand all the time!

i was relieved, but i don't think people would buy it. i wasn't planning on addressing it and i was just going to let it slide, but i decided i should say something as well.
