Dolan Dreaming

Chapter 9

My heart raced and I wanted to throw up. He had an evil smirk on his face. He stood up and dusted himself off.
"What a coincidence seeing you friends here," Mason said sounding like the true psychopath he is. Ethan and Grayson stepped back in shock with their jaws hanging. Cam was frozen in fear and I couldn't blame her. This was no coincidence. I put a mean face on my and stood my ground.
"May I help you," I said through gritted teeth. He didn't answer, just smiled like a maniac.
"All we're trying to do is have a normal life, but you just won't let that happen," I gestured, "will you?" He chuckled and shrugged his shoulders.
"I want you back Ash, I miss you," Mason said all of sudden sounding all in love. I laughed in disgust and anger.
"Miss me? If you really, missed me or even cared about me you wouldn't hurt people I care about!" I yelled. I could see Ethan stepping up behind me to back me up but I put my hand on his arm to stop him. He got the message easily. I had this one in the bag. Cam looked at me proudly and Mason's smirk disappeared.
"Using the twins for fame?" Mason said trying to shame me, but it didn't work.
"Aha! Of course! Their family wanted me! I had no choice! But even if I did, I wouldn't have chosen anything else because there's no family better than this one. The twins and their family are amazing and I would have to be pretty low to be using them for fame. Almost as low as you," I ranted on Mason. His face turned into anger and I heard Gray stifle a laugh. Ethan was smirking and Cam looked away holding in a big smile.
"We're done," I said flatly and pushed past Mason to get what I came for. I walked over to the jeans area and started angrily ruffling around for my size.
"Do you know what size you are?" Cam asked unexpectedly. I jumped a little and tried to play it off. I shook my head and held up two different sized jeans, size zero and one.
"I'm just going to go try them on for my size," I mumbled. She nodded and asked, "Do you want me to come with you?"
"Nah it's fine," I shook my head. I found the dressing rooms and changed into my jeans. I fit size 1 so I left the zero in there and walked back to the jeans area. Cam and Ethan were there talking quietly but immediately stopped when they saw me. Ethan smiled nervously and greeted me.
"Where's Gray?" I asked curiously.
"Restroom," Ethan answered looking down.
"Oh ok well I know what size I am so I'm getting the actual jeans now," I said.
"What size are you?" Ethan asked out of no where. I looked at him awkwardly and Cam elbowed him in the side.
"I-I mean sorry I was just curious but it's ok you don't have to-" Ethan started ,but I cut him off because I didn't want him to feel bad.
"One," I answered, "size one." Ethan laughed nervously and scratched his neck.
"Sorry," he said. I laughed and shook my head.
"No big deal babe," I smirked. He blushed and smiled at me. I grabbed two high-waisted skinny jeans, one black and one dark-washed. The other ones were two normal waisted skinny jeans, one light-washed and ripped, and one white. I saw two shirts I liked and was debating with myself if I should get them or not. I finally decided to buy them because I didn't have any warm weather clothes. I still only had two though so I needed more. I feel slightly guilty of buying so much, but I mean literally ALL of my clothes died in the fire so I needed a whole wardrobe, and this is not even half.
"Did you get everything?" Gray asked when I got out of Hollister.
"Uh well I kind of need more," I said nervously thinking myself as spoiled.
"Well, her parents were rich," Ethan chuckled. Wait what? I mean I thought about that when I saw how much money I inherited but I didn't actually think so.
"Well I'm not going to spend all my parent's money on one shopping trip," I laughed, "but I still need more." Gray shook his head and laughed.
"Aeropostale?" I asked looking at Cam. She flicked her head in the direction and we followed.
"You really like to shop huh?" Ethan asked while walking with me. I smiled and nodded my head.
"Yea, love it," I said. I perked my head in a different direction to the voices of screaming girls. They were pointing at us and jumping up and down. They started running around the square over to us and I burst into a sprint for a few seconds when I realized, they're fans. God I'm stupid. I jogged back embarrassed while Cam and the twins were laughing at me.
"I guess we aren't running?" I laughed blushing. I took a deep breath to prepare when the fans got closer. They all jumped on the twins first of course. They hugged them and cried and took pictures. Suddenly they all ran to Cam and were huddled around her asking her questions. Then they saw me. Everything was the same with the fans from earlier, except the reaction to me.
"Ash are you dating Ethan?!" I heard one yell.
"Or Grayson?!" Another one added.
"N-no I mean...we're all close friends," I stuttered.
"Of course she's dating Grayson! Have you seen his vine?!" No no they're completely wrong!
"BACK OFF!" One yelled at the top of her lungs. They all started huddling around me and I was terrified. I was forced to back up and was now pressed against the second floor railing.
"Grayson is MINE!" Another yelled. I couldn't breathe anymore I was over whelmed with all the yelling and crowding. I could feel my bad breathing and dizziness taking over.
"AHHH!" I yelled quickly before I was pushed over the rail.
