"ALL MY LIFE YOU STOOD BY ME, WHEN NO ONE ELSE WAS EVER BEHIND ME. ALL THESE LIGHTS, THEY CAN'T BLIND ME. WITH YOUR LOVE, NOBODY CAN DRAG ME DOWN. NOBODY NOBODY. NOBODY CAN –"

"Oh my God, Michael shut up!" Preston cried as he turned the volume down.

Malina laughed from beside Michael, only causing him to break out into a smile.

Not even five minutes Michael says, "Are we there yet?"

"No, Michael," Preston sighed.

Another five minutes later Michael speaks up again. "Are we there yet?"

"No."

Michael sighs and rests his head on Malina's shoulder.

Five minutes later, "Are we there yet?"

"Yes!" Ashton cries in relief, pointing out the window.

"Yay!" Michael yells.

"Michael are you on crack or something?" Preston sarcastically asks.

I tried not to laugh as Michael ignored him and kept squealing as the bold sign reading Meadows Mall came into view. The ride from the hotel to the mall had only been about fifteen minutes, but with Michael acting like he was it had felt like forever.

I was just relieved to finally be here.

Ashton got out the car after Preston and helped Bryana out, then Malina hopped out with Michael following. I climbed out after them all and we walked over to the other van holding Calum, Dani, Luke and Arzaylea and two more body guards.

We started walk through the parking lot to the mall, Ashton instantly pulling me so I stood between him and Bryana. Ever since Ashton nearly left me at the airport yesterday he's made sure I was in every conversation and hardly left my side.

I was kind of annoyed by it, but glad that he was trying to fix what had happened.

"Which store first?" Ashton asked us.

"Um, well, Michael and I were going to go to Forever 21," Malina said, subconsciously swinging her and Michael's intertwined hands back and fourth.

"Dani wanted me to go to Brandy Melville with her. . ." Calum trailed off.

"We're going with them," Arzaylea said, pointing between her and Luke, then at Calum and Dani.

My eyes landing on Luke's shoulder and traveled down his arm, stopping at his hand which was intertwined with Arzaylea. I felt a stab of pain and looked down at my shoes.

A hand suddenly placed itself onto my shoulder.

"Well we'll go to Pacsun," Ashton said, nodding towards the store. "Meet in the food court in an hour?"

The other couples nodded, then walked off.

I followed Bryana and Ashton to Pacsun. They went to go look at clothes, while I wasn't completely interested and went to the phone case aisle.

About five minutes later I got bored and stopped looking and just stood on my phone, aimlessly scrolling through Instagram. I stared down at my phone as I walked to the back of the store where Bryana and Ashton were to tell them to hurry the hèll up.

I mentally swore at my stupidity when I ended up running into somone.

"Sorry!" we cried in unison.

I looked up, meeting deep green eyes.

"It's okay," we both said and laughed.

"It's my fault. I shouldn't have been on my phone while walking," I sheepishly said as I locked my phone and tucked it into the back pocket of my jeans.

"I wasn't paying attention so it's also my fault," he argued.

I smiled, looking down at the name tag that read Cameron. (a/n: s/o to alexis & raybae for helping me find a name)

"What's your name?" he asked, proping his elbow onto the display and casually leaning to the side.

My jaw dropped as the display rack suddenly fell, and the items on it crashed to the floor. Cameron's cheeks tinted pink as we both bent to the floor and hastily gathered the items.

"Daisy," I laughed, and watched as Cameron fixed the rack.

"Beautiful name for a beautiful girl," he said, smiling down at me.

I blushed and set the items down onto the rack. I looked over, seeing Ashton and Bryana waiting for me so we could leave.

"Um, I have to go," I told Cameron, starting to back away.

"Wait, can I have your number?" he asked.

I nodded and he handed me his phone and I quickly typed my number in along with Daisy as the contact name, then handed him his phone.

"I have to go, bye!" I said and gave a small wave.

"Bye. I'll text you," he said. I nodded and walked over to Ashton and Bryana.

As we were walking out the store towards another store my phone buzzed in my pocket. I took it out and turned it on, reading the text I just received.

Hi. It's Cameron from Pacsun <3 I think you're really pretty and I hope we can become friends because you seem cool :)
