One In A Million

I slept the entire way to the next location for Boomerang, and it was pleasant!

On the other hand, I heard from Liam that Vincent was a nervous wreck, even though Leo was driving with them.

I simply shrugged at the thought, thinking it was the whole "being filmed with a pop-star" thing.

We got to the location, which was really a huge club. The sign above the door said The Limit Club in white hot letters.

The six of us bounced in, talking about the Beautiful music video, and were met by the odd lighting of the huge club. I froze, spun around and looked at all the people working everywhere.

"Lily!" Andi yelled.

I turned to a hall where she was waving me in, "Come!"

I sighed, tossed a wave over my shoulder to the boys, and ran to meet her in an oddly clean bathroom.

"Since this is a club, they don't have dressing rooms. Therefor, you change here, and dye your hair." she mumbled the last part.

"What?! I'm doing what!?" I yelled, clutching my head.

"Dying it pink." she stated innocently.

I shrugged, "YOLO." and sat down on a canvas chair until the dye was done.

When Andi styled the pastel hair in a perfect mop, I screamed and jumped up and down like a child.

She laughed, "Glad you like it, because it's permanent!"

I froze, "Cool." I stated, "What clothes am I wearing?"

She sighed and shook her head, "This."

I took the pile of clothing from her hands and began to strip from the dress I wore for the previous video. The outfit alone was pretty unique, but the makeup was weirder. The top was a black bustier--thin and black, strapless with gold embellishments on the cups. The skirt had a black waistband, but the piece itself was hot pink. The heels were the same shade of pink, with black studs on the back. I finished with a cream fedora with pink edges before sitting down on the chair again.

Andi applied dark pink lipstick, fixed it since she got it on my chin, then fixed my heavy mascara.

"This lipstick tastes funny," I cringed.

She chuckled, "Ask Vincent what he thinks."

I smiled, "I get to kiss him?"

"At the end of the video!"

I squealed, "YES!!"

"Hold still." she muttered and brushed my eye lids with a hot pink eyeshadow, then topped it with white powder.

"Can I go now? I think he's here. And so is Leo!" I squealed and ran out before getting an answer.

The first person I saw was, of course, my best friend. When he saw me, he ran over and we crushed each other in a hug.

"I missed you so much!" I yelled in a breathless voice.

"I hate California now! I want to stay with you!" he mumbled, squeezing the living daylights out of me.

"If I didn't know any better, I'd say you two were dating." Vincent chuckled.

I left Leo's embrace and wrapped my arms around Vincent's neck, "But you know better, right?"

"Of course. And may I say, you have an exceptional taste in best friends. Even more so that he didn't beat me up like he threatened to." Vincent nodded to Leo.
