иєω уσяк ¢ιту

It was my obsession, if I could stay here I would but my life is in California so that's where I stay.

My photo shoot was the next day so I had this entire day to just relax and have some fun. I took a photo and posted it on Instagram with the caption:

иєω уσяк ¢ιту ιѕ му ℓσνє!
gσииα нανє α gяєαт иιgнт ω/ му fανσяιтє gυу! @∂єяєкнσυgн ¢αит ωαιт! 💗

On my bed was a pair on converse and these nice blue jeans that Derek had left outside the door earlier.

After a long warm shower, I got dressed then stuck my id and credit card into my iPhone case.

Looking into the mirror once more, I walked out my room and into the elevator, I swiped through Instagram as I stepped out of the elevator.

I got outside and looked up, there was minimal amount of paps which made me feel better. I signed a couple
autographs for fans then walked away towards the nearest Starbucks.

"White Chocolate Mocha please.."

"Name?" The Barista smiled, obviously knowing who I am.

"Janel.." I nodded, handing her my card.

When she handed it back, I walked towards a seat and sat down going through my Instagram feed -- just waiting.

Lucy: filming schedule are in mailboxes today! You have full day filming on Monday!

Me: full day? Okay, where are you right now?

Lucy: about to leave the studio now, why?

Me: can you take Kleo home with you pretty please :)

Lucy: yes, only because I love you! Enjoy NYC ❤️

I smiled at her kindness, when my name was called I stood up and thanked the barista as I walked out.

My brain finally decided that we should go shopping so that's what we did. I walked into the Forever 21 and looked around for a while just trying to pass time.

∂єяєк: яєнєαяѕαℓѕ αяє σνєя! мєєт уσυ ιи тнє ℓσвву ιи αи нσυя?

мє: ιм ιи fσяєνєя 21, мєєт мє нєяє?

∂єяєк: ι'ℓℓ ѕєє уσυ ѕσσи!

I placed my phone back into my pocket then took a sip of my drink then continued looking around.

Trying on a couple dresses, I ultimately decided that I didn't want clothes but more accessories.

ℓυ¢у: ʝ, уσυ мαу иєνєя gєт кℓєσ вα¢к αgαιи. вαву ιѕ тнє ѕωєєтєѕт ∂σg єνєя!

ℓυ¢у: тнαтѕ иσ fαιя вυт.. σкαу ! xσ

Shaking my head, I felt a hand grab mine and spin me around. Derek. I smiled hugging him.

"Really? Okay, this is very interesting!" I smiled, seeing that he wanted us to match.

"You look amazing as usual!" He looked me up and down.

"You're the sweetest thing ever." I grab his hand, watching him blush. "Okay, I'm never going to get over you blushing."

"Okay.." He took a deep breath. "Will you do me the honors of being my girlfriend?"

I watched him stunned then smiled, nodding my head. You could see him release a sigh then pull me into a hug.

"Thank you.. So much." He whispered softly in my ear.

"Let's go.." I smiled. "We could do lots of things in this city and the first thing we do is take a photo in time square."

We walked out, hand-in-hand into the spring air. We were already in time square. It wasn't even a tough, long walk.

ναℓ'ѕ ρσν

Maks and I were in New York for the weekend. We were walking down time square when I spotted someone very familiar.

Her hair. It was Janel.

She was standing with her hand in Derek's. Jealousy was boiling deep inside me. How could she move on?

I started making my way towards them, Maks grabbed my arm obviously seeing my destination.

"No, you'll regret it if you go over there!"

Watching them, you could see her pull him into a kiss that broke my heart. She really is moving on from me.

No. I can't let that happen.

I pulled my phone out and called my grandmother, the only one that could help me out right now.

"Movies? Since I don't have a show until tomorrow we can spend our time tonight."

"Hmm.. I've been wanting to see Insurgent." I nodded, starting to walk.

When we got to the movies on the upper west side, I stepped out the car and followed Derek inside.

I watched Derek get the tickets, he's just not the same to Val -- somewhat a good thing but at the same time a bad thing. I'm in love with Val but if he can't change then..

Derek glanced down at me with a smile, I gave it back to him then looked the other way seeing Maks.

"Go away!" I mouthed to him.

"Look at your phone." He mouthed back.

Unlocking my phone, it was text and notification from Buzz News as usual.

I turned towards Maks and nodded once more before walking into the Theater with Derek.
