Kalin's POV
I had forgot my headphones at the studio so I walked there to go get them. I walk in and see Crystal and Myles in the sound booth kissing.
"What are you guys doing here?" I ask.
"We were...um..." Myles stuttered.
"We were just getting out," Crystal says nudging Myles. "Right Myles?"
"Yeah sure," I say.
They climb out and look at me.
"What are you doing here?" Crystal asked.
"I forgot something," I said.
"Sure," she says narrowing her eyes and nodding at me.
"I did. See!" I grab my headphones and hold them up.
"Well let's just pretend this never happened and go home," Myles said.
"Good idea," Crystal agreed.
We turn around and walk out the door. We drop Crystal off and head home.

"So what were you guys doing?" I asked.
"We were just hanging out. We were singing in the sound booth," Myles answered.
"That's it?"
"We also ate," Myles added.
"Okay. At least you didn't destroy the place," I said.
"Yeah. Kalin, you'll never believe this. Crystal can sing!" Myles exclaims.
"I can believe it," I reply.
"No you don't understand. She's amazing. She's got real, hardcore talent."
"Oh really?"
"Yeah."
"Is she still coming with us Saturday?"
"Yeah. Why?"

"Just asking. I gotta hear this for myself."
I needed to hear it for myself. She better be as good as Myles is telling me right now.

Joselyn's POV
I was not going to have any luck with finding a job in the mall considering what happened yesterday. I decided to try looking into Tori, Leigh, and Crystal's jobs.
I tried Crystal first.
"You're going to love the job, but hate the boss," she says to me.
She was driving. We had dropped off the other girls. Saira had an interview and we took Tori and Leigh to work.
"You want to show up at least a half hour before work starts so you can get everything set up," Crystal explains to me.

She runs me through the whole drill of her job and what other jobs there were to choose from. When we get there, Crystal is bombarded by someone who I guess is her boss. She was short. In fact, she was shorter than me. She had her brown hair put up into a messy bun and she was fair skin.
"Who is this?" she asked politely.
"This is my friend. She's trying to find a job and she was looking into mine to see if she would like it," Crystal said.
"Hi. I'm Joselyn Owens," I say and shake her hand.
"Joan Cross," she said. "It would be a pleasure to have you on the team."
"Thanks," I say and we walk away. "She seems nice."
"Wait till you get hired," Crystal muttered.

I spent the whole day talking to Crystal's coworkers and looking into different jobs they had. It was really fun.
"I'm gonna consider your job, Crystal," I said.
"Thank God you were here with me. If it weren't for you, my boss would've cut into my lunch break AGAIN!" Crystal said as we left her job. "Just don't take a week off from work and you're fine."

Saira's POV
I had my interview at Forever 21 today. The girls prepped me for it. My interviewer said they'd call me. I couldn't wait. I was walking home when I run into Grayson.
"Hey Saira. Can I talk to you?"
"Sure," I reply.
We walk and talk.
"Is Joselyn still mad at me?"
"She's heated."
"She won't even hear me out."
"She'll forgive you sooner or later. I'll talk to her for you."
"Really? Thanks!"
"No problem," I said.

Joselyn and Crystal were the first ones to come home.
"Hey Saira!" Joselyn says. "How was your interview?"
"It was good," I reply. "Can I talk to you for a minute?"
"Yeah sure."

I pull her into the kitchen and talk to her quietly.
"I ran into Grayson today," I said.
"On my God. Don't even mention him!" Joselyn exclaims and begins to leave.
"Wait!" She turns around. "Grayson didn't mean it. He told me to tell you he loved you and that the kiss never meant anything. Jackie came on to him first. He was hoping you guys could talk about it face to face but you kept dissing him. If you don't believe me, I recorded him saying this."
"I wanna hear it," Joselyn says.

I pull up the recording on my phone and we listen. Joselyn stands there dumbfounded. Then, she heads towards the door.
"Where are you going?" I ask.
"I'm going to win my man back," Joselyn says and walks out the door.
