Me and Aidan walk off the plane and collect our luggage. "Now what?" He wonders.
"I guess we go to the hotel." I shrug. We walk to the side of the road and sit down. I take my phone out and text Jean.

Me: here i'll give my phone to him
"Aidan, do you want to text my best friend who fangirls over you?" I ask.
"Why not." I hand him my phone.
After a few minutes, a cab picks us up. Finally, after a four hour plane ride and a 20 minute cab ride, we arrive at the hotel. We wheel our suitcases into the building.
It feels weird being here without my brothers. Ever since I was born, I've never been anywhere that's not school without them. Sleepovers, amusement parks, restaurants, all with the three of the boys. Now that I'm without them I feel.. lost. But this is my dream so I can't leave.
Being with Aidan though makes me feel better. I bet it would make Jean and Pierce feel good. Speaking of, my phone starts to ring. I grab it and see that Jean started a facetime call. I let out a chuckle, put my airpods in my ears, and answer.
"Hello my friends." I smile at the familiar faces of Pierce and Jean. They laugh
"Heyy!" Jean excitedly says, almost jumping up and down.
"Jean said you met Aidan Gallagher." Pierce smiles.
"Yeah, he's checking into our hotel room." I say.
"Can you get him!" Jean jumps.
"Sure, one second." I hop over to the brown haired boy and put the phone in front of his face. It's obvious that my friends are keeping in a scream. "Aidan Gallagher." I announce.
"H-hi." Pierce crocks.
"Hey." Aidan looks at me. I shrug.
"Can I have a second guys?" I ask.
"Sure." Pierce answers. I think Jean is stunned. I mute and turn my camera off.
"Look, I know they can get a little starstruck-" I start.
"A little?" He says.
"Let me finish," I snap, "but you're like their idol, and if I'm yours then the one thing I need to ask of you is to please just be polite."
"Fine." He utters.
"Thank you." I turn the camera back on and go off mute.
"Rooms are ready." He announces.
"When are your auditions?" Pierce wonders.
"Tomorrow." Aidan answers for me. I chuckle.
"Ooooo hayyy." Pierce coos.
"Stop." I give her a little death stare before turning to Aidan who now has a line of pink across his cheeks. Is he blushing? I shake off the fact of Aidan freaking Gallagher having a crush on me and lead him into the elevator.
I move closer to him, I have a phobia of elevators. Pierce looks at me and Aidan, and moves her eyebrows up and down and Jean leaves the call.
"Her phone died, she was texting me earlier, she was up all night and didn't charge her phone once." Pierce explains.
"Classic Jean." I laugh. "I'm going to go too, we have to unpack." I say.
"Have fun." He looks at Aidan, me, Aidan, and back at me.
"Shut up." I leave the call. The elevator starts moving up and I grab onto Aidan's arm.
"Scared of the elevator?" He laughs. I let go of him and instead grabs onto the handles.
"Kind of." I admit. He puts a hand on mine.
"Don't worry, we all have our fears."
"What's yours?"
"Its kind of stupid.."
"You can tell me."
"Spiders." He laughs a little. I laugh too. "They have like a million legs! How aren't you scared of them?" He wonders.
"I love nature. Just don't kill one in front of me." I smile.
"Deal, I'm not going anywhere near a spider." We both laugh harder.
The elevator door opens and I run out. Aidan carries our luggage out. "Sorry." I apologize for not helping.
"It's okay." He smiles a dazzling one. Am I starting to fall for him? I can't be.
"What are our room numbers?" I ask, breaking the silence.
"203 and 204." He answers. "Right across from each other."
"Perfect." I gasp. "RACE YOU!" I grab my suitcase and room key from Aidan and bolt down a hall.
"NO FAIR YOU GOT A HEAD START!" He yells, chasing after me.
I run in and out of hallways, looking for rooms 203 and 204. Found them! I open mine and hide inside, waiting for Aidan to find me.
I look around. One bed, one bathroom, a beautiful view of Toronto, a desk, a closet, tv, mirror, fridge, microwave, stove top, counters, really all the essentials.
"Beat you!" I hear from outside. I open my door and step outside.
"Did you?" I chuckle. His jaw drops.
"You're so mean."
"Maybe." I shrug.
