Haley

Princeton and I had been walking around various men's clothing stores for a good hour, and had barely talked at all. Screaming fans were being held off by burly security guards, but Princeton wanted a minute to take some pictures.

"Who is SHE?" a girl hissed. She was looking straight at me.

I guess I wasn't exactly made known to the fans yet. This is the first time I've walked openly with the boys. Usually we'd meet up secretly in stores, or I'd just buy clothes and bring the bags to them.

Princeton put an arm around my waist, and pulled me into the girls picture. "She's Haley. Our stylist."

The whole mall seemed to go into hysterics. Girls were either crying about Princeton, or crying at the fact they weren't picked to be their stylist.

"She's probably a tramp!" Someone yelled. My face got hot and tears built in my eyes. What did I do? I literally had not spoken a word and here I was getting yelled at.

Princeton tried to calm the crowd down by signing a couple of autographs, but nothing was going to stop these girls. He then decidedly grabbed my hand and we raced into the nearest store. Which happened to be Yankee Candle.

"This place makes my nose hurt," Princeton sniffed a nearby candle and snarled.

I found myself laughing. "Why? It smells good. I love these vanilla candles."

"You want me to buy you some?" He chuckled. I rolled my eyes.

"Ha ha, very funny."

"I'm serious." He cocked his head at me, and picked up a vanilla candle. "I can buy you a whole bunch of these."

"Isn't that...romantic?" I asked quietly. "You know, buying candles and stuff for people...?"

He turned red and shrugged. I almost forgot for a second where we were, who I was with, and what I was doing. All I could focus on was his eyes, and his hand holding that candle. Fans screaming outside of the store disturbed that.

"Maybe some other time," I took it from his hand and set it down. He laughed, but sounded a little down.

"Yeah, alright?"

"What's all that ruckus?" An old woman waddled by us, holding a bag full of candles.

Princeton laughed and cleared his throat. "I think some...celebrities or something are here."

"Oh dear, teenagers today." The woman tossed her head back and waddled on out. We laughed, waiting for security to escort us to safety.

Later that night we were on all the celebrity buzz blogs, and even featured on TMZ. I was known as the mystery girl. Didn't people understand that I was just working? I mean, girls my age have jobs anyways. It may not be for big celebrities but still!

"This is crazy," Ray Ray turned off the TV. "You guys really got trapped in that candle store?"

"Yeah, and Princeton's nose was on fire," I teased. Princeton huffed and began to tickle me. I doubled over with laughter.

"Stop! Stop, I'm begging you!"

"Nope!" He kept tickling me anyways, until I had rolled out of my seat and onto the floor.

"That'll teach you," he snorted. I huffed and sat up, blushing.

Ray Ray, Roc, and Prodigy stared long and hard at Princeton, and he ran a hand through his curly hair. "What...?"

"Nothing. I think I'm ready for bed." Ray Ray stood and stormed off to the bedroom part of our bus.

"Yeah, me too," Roc stood and followed. Prodigy just shook his head and left.

"Did I miss something?" I asked quietly.

"No...I did." Princeton stood. "I think I need to go to bed too. Big day tomorrow and all..."

"Wait!" I stood up, grabbing his arm. "Wasn't there something you wanted to tell me?"

Princeton

There is something I want to tell her. It's that I think she's really fly and everything and I wanted to know if we could maybe go on a date. I had it all planned out in my head. But now I see that I betrayed my boys. And they were obviously already mad about not getting their shopping spree today, now they couldn't even get Haley?

"Look, Haley. Whatever I might have led you to believe today, is my fault. I'm sorry." I bit my lip before turning to go. "Goodnight."
