Richelle's pov
When me and Noah finally set everything up, Amanda, as if on cue, walks through the door, brushing past me as if I'm thin air. Ugh! That girl! You know what? I'll let my anger out when me and Noah see what happens tonight. Whether she's going to see another man, which will be awful because I hate seeing Noah upset, or doing an extra shift at work, I'll still find it fishy.

"Hey Noah!" she exclaims, running towards him and throwing her arms around him, leaving me to shut the door, "I'm going to take a shower, and then I'll tell you all about what happened at work today!" As if he's going to care!

With that being said, she runs upstairs, disappearing in a matter of seconds, leaving me and Noah standing there. I limp towards him and say, "Quick, now's the time to put the camera in the car! Go before she gets out of the shower!"

As a reply, he nods and jogs off to get the camera. Okay, now what should I do? Hmm....maybe I should think about the plan. I can't wait to catch Amanda in the act! Well, whatever that act is. What if she sees Noah's earpiece? No, he can hide it with a pillow; he'd better! I swear, if she sees the camera or Noah's earpiece, she'll make mincemeat out of me! Luckily, she hasn't noticed that I'm wearing a pair of her pyjamas, maybe I should go to bed before she sees me! 

But, I can't get up the stairs! I can only just walk, let alone climb! Has Noah finished with putting the camera inside the car? Because I kind of need him before-

"WHAT ON EARTH DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING WEARING MY CLOTHES?"

Oh God. Help me now! She begins to furiously march down the stairs towards me, a look of anger shining at me through her eyes. Noah, please come now! My mouth is lost for words, and is as dry as a desert! I feel my heart pounding inside my chest as if it wants to bounce out, and I begin to tremble a little. Oh, Noah, come back now, please!

She reaches the bottom of the stairs, and furiously marches towards me. I look up to see a fist rising above me, instantly making me look down, not wanting to look at the pain which is about to travel through my body.

But, it doesn't come! Instead, her hand places itself on my shoulder, resting, as if she's calming me down. What? Is this really Amanda? Or an imposter?

I look up to see Amanda snd Noah starring down at me, her expression soft, but his confused. So that's why she didn't hit me! Because Noah came in! Talk about perfect timing! I'll tell him about it later, but right now, I need to get into bed....and barricade my door up from Amanda.
