Vanessa' P.O.V

"Who are the other girls?" Carter asked. "Kathleen and Chloe, they're not slutty and popular you wont know them!" I say smiling. "I guess that's fair. Is Kathleen Ashtons girl?" He asked. How'd he know that? "Yes, why?" I ask. "Ashton talks about her all the time in PE. She seems cool." He says walking around my room. "Yeah! She's cool" I say. Man I'm making this more and more awkward by the second. "I'm so sorry about what happened yesterday." He says approaching my band wall. "It's alright, Carter. You didn't know I had a boyfriend." I say smiling at him. "Sweet, what're you girls up to today? He asked as he sits back down on my bed. "We're going shopping." I say a little less enthusiastically. "Really? I didn't see you as that type of girl." I was slightly offended by that. "What's that suppose to mean?" I ask. "Well, judging by your walls and the guitars over there, you're into music. All the photos over there are screaming 'I'm a photographer'. And, well, shopping is a bit girly and your room doesn't give off that impression." Woah, didn't see that coming. "You're very observant. Girly really isn't my thing and neither is shopping but I need something nice to wear for Luke and I's date tonight." I smiled when I said Luke. "Oh! Cool." He says, I could tell he wasn't thrilled. Then there was a knock at my door. "Come in!" I yelled. "Hey sorry, I'm a tad early." Chloe said walking in. "It's alright, Tarra is just in the shower. Have a seat, oh this is Carter, he's my neighbour. Carter, this is my friend, Chloe." I say and then carry on doing my hair and putting on light make-up in my mirror. "Hey." Carter said to Chloe. "Hi." She mumbled back. I guess he was an ass to her earlier in life. "Oh. I have to take Jake to Luke's, anyone wanna come?" I ask. "I will!" Carter and Chloe say at the same time. "Okay, both of you can come I guess. We'll just wait for Tarra then." I say. Two, long minutes later, Tarra finishes her shower. "I have to go drop Jake off at Luke's place. Chloe and Carter are coming for a walk. Finish getting ready and we will be back soon." I say. "Ashton picked him up when he dropped me off." Kathleen said. "Oh! Don't worry then." I say trying to find my wallet. "Well I'm gonna go now and leave you girls to your shopping adventure! See you around." Carter said before walking out the door. "Why the hell was he here?" Chloe asked. "He's my neighbour and his mum, sister and him came over and visited. My mum insisted that he comes up here with Tarra and I." I say. "He seemed nice to me. Don't you like him Chloe?" Kathleen asked. "He's a bully." Chloe said immediately. "Oh, well I take that back then." Kat says. I finally found my wallet and chucked it in a wee over the shoulder bag. "Well I'm ready when you guys are." I say. "We've been ready for ages. If we wait any longer you'll be 50." They say. Wow I have some weird friends. "Sorry, gosh!" I say. "Are we going to see the boys at the park later? Ashton wants to know." Kathleen asked. "I guess we could stop by on the way home." I say, everyone seemed to agree. "Are we walking?" Chloe asked. "Pffft no, what do you think my mum is for?" I said. "Mum!!" I yelled. "Yes darling?" My mum sasys coming from the kitchen. "Can you drop us off at the mall? Pleaaaase?" I ask. "Sure, but you'l have to find another way home. I have a meeting later today." She said while grabbing a water out of the fridge. "Okay thats fine!" I say. "Okay, jump in the car and we'll go." We all walked out to the car and jumped in. After an awkward ten minute drive to the mall we all got out. "Thanks mum, I'lll see you later." I aid as I started to walk away. "Bye sweetie, have fun!" And then she drove off.

We have been walking around for about twenty minutes and honestly, this has got to be the worst experiance ever. "What about this one?" Kathleen asked, holding up a pink and yellow flowery dress. "Well for one thing, its pink and two, it's flowery." I say disgusted with her choice. "This one?" Tarra says, she was hoking up a black dress that looked like something out of Covet.

After about twenty minutes, all the girls had found and outfit for me to try. "You said no dresses, but you said nothing about skirts. go try these on and call us in." Kathleen said. She handed me a black and grey high waisted skirt that reached just above my knees and an white Aztec crop-top. I take the clothe into the dressing room. The shirt was a little too short but it looked really good on me. So after 15 minutes of fighting with the voices in my head about if I should take my chances with it, I ended up just buying it because at this point its been two and a half hours and I do not feel like trying another thing on. We check out and grabbed some StarBucks.

Luke's P.O.V.

There was a knock at the door, it must be Calum and Ashton. Michael and I were straightening up and filling up all the water balloons. We had managed to break about fifty of them already, it's hard work. Calum, Ashton and Jake walked in the kitchen. "How's the balloon filling going?" Calum asked. "Horrible." Michael said. "I can help if yous want!" Jake says. "That would be great lil' dude." Michael says. Jake walked over to the kitchen sin to help. He was much better at tying them up then we are. "You must've tied a lot of balloon in your time." Ashton says laughing. "Yeah actually. Me and Nessa used to always have water fights in our backyard." He says. "You can be our secret weapon then." I said laughing harder then I should've. "Vanessa would be better, she has a very powerful, accurate aim, I ended up with bruises. She's deadly." he said laughing as well. "I don't think I'll be messing with her then." Calum joked. "And she did boxing and self-defense classes a couple years back. She could probably kill you if she wanted to." Jake said, still focusing on the balloons. "Hush Jake! You're going to make poor Luke here shit himself." Michael said laughing. "Oh sorry! don't worry she wont hurt you unless you hurt her. But I don't think, well I hope you wont do that!" jake says while laughing. "I'm not, I promise." I said more serious then the others were taking it. He just smiled and went back to the balloons. I'd never hit a girl or woman and most definitely not Vanessa. After another 40 minutes of filling and popping balloons, we filled up some water guns and put everything in Ashtons trunk. We were a little late to the park, as always. I hope they wont mind too much. We parked the car and imediantly we were swarmed with fans. Ashton wound down his window and said, "We kinda needa get out." All of the girls took a few steps back and gave us room to step out. We said some "Hello's" and took some photos the unloaded the car. "Okay so here is how it's going to work. Firstly, everyone put there dry stuff, towels, phones and all that overe here. Make sure you dont loose it." Ashton said while pointing to a tree. "Oh and everyone this is Jake, Vanessas little brother." Michael said pointing at Jake. All the girls smiled and waved at him. "Okay so lets skip all the daram and get into two groups." Calum said.The fans spilt up into two groups and we decided on Cake VS Mashton. Half the girls went to side Cake and the others Mashton. we all quietly surrounded the girls and hid in the bushes....

Hey guys. So I just wanted to update I know a lot of you have been waiting for me to update and I'm so sorry. I feel like my writing hasn't been the best. Sorry if I let any of you down with his chapter. I tried to make the conversations between the boys a little subtle because Jake is younger than all of them. I'm really not happy with this chapter at all. The third and final part to this chapter will be up tomorrow I promise. Until then, bye loves. xx.

P.S. Please vote and comment on this chapter. It really means a lot to me. Okay bye.
