(2 days later) (Luke POV)

As you would imagine, it took us a whole day to get back to Rosemeadow because we didn't want to be the cause of an airport mob. Zander was passed out on my shoulder, and the rest of us sat there tired. We decided to fly halfway and then drive the rest in a black-out windowed car they could easily hide us in.

H- If we have to go to New York City again I might literally die.
J- tell me about it, we've became the face of the news front cover for days!
L- Now we know how all those celebrities we grew up watching had it.
H- hell, this life might be harder than my childhood!
J-(snort) I mean hey not all of us can say that...
H- c'mon Jake you gotta agree a bit.
J- I guess it's worse than elementary school..
L- you must have had it real hard then.

Jake went quiet and nodded, besides a little here and there I practically knew nothing about Jake, only his high school experience that I happened to involve in messing up. I mean everyone in this car is involved besides the driver guy.

L- So, wait! I know the story is private, but how did you guys end up together in the first place, I know I walked in that night you two had the sleepover but I don't know much before that.
H- (sigh) it's a long story
L- this is a really long ride.
J- hey sir! Around how long left?
Driver- 4 1/2 hours.
H- that's a long time, thanks Sir!
Driver- whatever.

I closed the window to the front seat gently, so the back seat would go back to being soundproof.

L- The driver guy is pretty depressed, I can tell.
H- well we are paying him 10 thousand dollars for this, so I wouldn't know why.
J- damn, that's a lot of money princess.
H- not really for us anymore.
J- I kinda miss struggling.
H- we all do.
L- ok are you guys gonna tell me or what?!
H- fine.

(1 hour later)

I woke up and stretched. How far are we?

L- hey is anyone awake?

Hailey's head popped up.

H- I'm up.
L- ok, try to get some rest.
H- I want to, trust me.

It was dark outside, must be past 6. The time really didn't matter it was Hailey frantically searching her name on every Social Media platform out there to make sure nobody hated her.

L- Hailey I would like to hold onto that, you really need to rest.

I reached out my hand to take it and she put her phone in my hand with tears in her eyes.

H- they hate me.

I looked at the article published by someone at the Air BnB attack. They were spreading rumors about her, and the comments on the article were disturbing. I reported the article, and shut her phone off.

H- I knew it! I'm terrible!
L- no, they are. They forgot that you need personal space too.

She nodded at me, with a single tear rolling down her face. I feel bad for the poor girl. She turned and leaned onto Jake's arm, and just in a few minutes she was down with the rest. Me, myself, I, and a scroll into BuzzFeed to see what the millennials had to say about her.
