I haven't mentioned the character Chris from the beginning of the story for a while so don't be caught off guard or confused when he shows up. I just felt like he should be back in here because I just like cut him out but I didn't really mean to. Well he's back!

It's been about a week since Austin first called me his girlfriend.

I'm not even sure we're actually dating officially because he hasn't told any of the guys yet. I mean I would know if he did right? They'd congratulate me, right? I don't know and I'm too afraid to ask Austin about it. I've also seen him flirt with a few girls at signings. I don't know what to think of it, and I'm kinda worried. Well if he can flirt with girls, lets see how he likes it if I flirt with guys. Even if I'm not that great at it.

We're finally in Vegas, the place where everyone gets wasted and suddenly gets ten times sexier. I know all the guys I've been hanging out with, look a lot hotter. I mean yes, Austin is the one that still catches my eye but woah, they look wow. After the show tonight, everyone said that we should go to the casinos and just party, since tomorrow we have a day off. I'm totally happy with doing that but I just hope Austin and I, don't accidentally make a mistake and ruin something we started.

The day was ending and it was time to get ready for partying all night long. I went back to the hotel room we had for the night, that I was sharing with Alex, Jack and Chris. I didn't feel like being in a room by myself and they had space.

I didn't really know what to wear tonight. I was stuck between a red, strapless dress, that was high low styled, or a tight, strapless, black dress that hit my mid thigh. I was looking in the mirror holding the dresses up to my body when Jack walked by. He was wearing a black button down shirt with a blue tie, and black pants. I will admit Jack was one of the people that look so much hotter tonight.

"I'd go with the black dress. I know if you were my girlfriend, like he says you are, then I'd be all over you wearing that. We'd have trouble staying civilized in public, just saying." He winked at me and started walking away. Jack always gave somewhat nice advice.

I started doing my makeup, which I went for a smokey eye look, and some red lipstick. My hair was straight down and slightly curled at the bottom. I chose red stilettos to go with the dress, and to match the lipstick. I really liked my look tonight, thanks to Jack.

I walked out the bathroom, to find the guys waiting in the living room. I looked up and all I heard was whistling and wow. I chuckled slightly embarrassed. "Wow Hails, if he doesn't announce you guys are together tonight, I just might. He better claim you now or he's going to lose you." Alex was so sweet, but did I really look that good tonight?

We walked out the room to meet with the guys in the lobby downstairs. When the elevator opened, I don't want to sound like I'm boasting, but all the guys turned their head towards me and made wide eyes. I was so embarrassed, i instantly felt my face burning up from their stares. "Don't worry about them, they're just shocked at how hot you look babe." Jack said, putting his arm around my shoulder. Fuck it, if I'm going to have fun tonight, I'm going to have to step out of my comfort zone. I put my arm around Jack's waist and kissed his cheek. I turned to look towards Austin and he just stared at me with a face, that I couldn't tell if it was disappointment or anger.
