Whoever wrote our instructions, had a very serious plan. Every single detail was included, from the people we need, to the times things has to be done by. We needed a certain man to come to our first performance in Las Vegas, Etienne Forcier. Who just happened to live in Paris.

"How are we supposed to get him to come to Las Vegas?" Daniel asked annoyed. We were working out plans for our performances while the others were out getting food. Let's just say it wasn't going to well.

"Aw is Danny tired?" I asked in a baby voice. I plopped down beside him on the couch and rested my head on his shoulder. You see, after getting to know Daniel in the last few months, I realized he's actually a nice guy. We have a lot in common actually, that's why we're best friends. Most people would think that both of our bold personalities put together would clash, but we make each other better people. Even if his controlling nature does get annoying sometimes, you learn to live with it. I had become great friends with the others too.
Henley was the older sister I always wanted, she was someone for me to look up to and she's always there when I need to talk or need advice.
Jack has become my little brother. From his looks, you would think he's a cheeky and charming guy but he's actually very shy. Which is why I'm there when anything happens and he's there for me.
Lastly Merritt. He's the awesome uncle that buys alcohol for his niece and her friends on her sixteenth birthday.

"Seriously, Be, how do we get this guy to Vegas?" I though back to a plan I came up with a few weeks ago.

"Well, I have a plan. But-"

"Oh no." He said laughing.

"As I was saying, I have a plan but we need to take a quick trip to Paris." I smirk and continue telling him the plan.

When everyone came back to the apartment with food, we sat down and started explaining our ideas. Everyone loved the idea of going to Paris, Henley mostly for the shopping and the French hunks. Which is a reason I wanted to go too. Merritt liked the idea of seeing the French ladies and what they could do. The innocent Jack Wilder wanted to see the culture Paris had to offer, and well for Daniel it was strictly business. Everything was going to plan until Daniel opened his big mouth.

"You know maybe I'll get a few women to my room while we're in Paris. I heard they're much better then the girls in America."

"Oh. My. God. You asśhôle!" I yelled and smacked him across the face. Henley got up as well and stormed to the kitchen while calling him a douche bag.
"You disgusting pervert. Of course you would say something like that, I mean you used your magic to get girls into your room and you made your way into their pants. My god." I said and walked out to where Henley was. We sat quietly at the kitchen table drinking coffee, processing what just happened. Why did I get so angry? Surely it can't just be because he was rude. I thought to myself.

"You know, we don't need men. We are strong women." Henley said to me. I giggled and nodded my head.

"They're all idiots." I responded and heard a gasp from the doorway.

"You know Phoebe, I'm very hurt. Here I thought we were getting along great." Merritt said as he walked into the kitchen, with Jack trailing behind him.

"Okay not all men, just the narcissistic, controlling kind. Also know as Daniel Atlas." I said rather loudly trying to gain Danny's attention. Footsteps got closer to the door and in came Daniel. Henley and I glared at him and turned our backs. The two other men snickered and did the same. Danny got the silent treatment from everyone.

"Okay guys. Uh- Ladies. I'm sorry very for being an inconsiderate jerk. The women here are just as good as the women in Pairs." Henley sighed and turned to face Daniel, followed by Merritt. Jack looked at Danny and shook his head, signalling I was still mad. Daniel sighed and approached me, wrapping his arms around me. He rested his head on my shoulder. His breath tickled my neck and his lips brushed over my ear.

"Be, I'm sorry. You're my best friend, which means you're 100% better than those French girls." He whispered. I turned around and hugged him back.

"Fine I forgive you. Asśhôle." I said with a laugh. He laughed along with me and tighten his hold on me. From behind us, the other Horsemen were clapping and awing. Our eyes widened and we moved away from each other's embrace and straightened out our clothing, pretending like it didn't happen.

"So, uh, should we watch a movie?" I suggested. Henley squealed and started suggesting some chick-flicks which made us all groan. I mean, sure I'm a little girly, but I'm not constantly watching chick flicks.

"How about Brick Mansion?" The guys eyes light up and everyone made their way to the couch.

"Last one there sits on the floor!" I shouted and everyone ran. I was almost on the couch when I pair of hands grabbed my waist and put me on the floor.

"Atlas!" I yelled and ran after him but he ended up sitting on the couch. "Your a cheat J Daniel Atlas!" I laughed grabbing a pillow to sit on. I huffed as the movie started and I felt someone sit beside me. Looking over, I saw Danny.

"If you have to sit on the floor, I guess I should too." I cuddled against his side trying to get comfortable. Movement was heard from the couch and something hard hit my head.

"God dammit ow!" I yelped as I looked behind me, Merritt and Jack were tackling each other in order for one of them to lay down. Which ended up with me being kicked in the head, hard. I held in the scream that was going to be released and the tears that threatened to spill. Danny got up and punched each guy not extremely hard, but hard enough. Then lifted me off the ground not caring about my protests. He carried me into the bathroom and sat me on the counter and looked at my head.

"There's no blood, which is good. Does it hurt?" He asked sympathetically. I shook my head no but he saw right through my tough act. "Take the aspirin." Danny said. Damn control freak. I swallowed the aspirin and opened my mouth to show him I swallowed. He laughed and let me off of the counter as he patted my head. My head was still pounding as I hopped down and I stumbled a little, resulting in Danny grabbing my hand.
"I think you need some rest. We have a big day tomorrow." Daniel said and walked me to my room. I opened the door and said goodnight, as the door started to close, I stopped it.

"Danny could you stay with me? I-you don't have to, I'm just really nervous for tomorrow. But really you don't have to, at all, if you don't want." I tried explaining but started rambling. You see, I'm claustrophobic but I'm small enough to fit under the money with Danny, so it has to be me. Daniel laughed and nodded.

"No it's okay, I'll stay." We made our way to the bed and slipped under the covers. Danny pulled me closer when he saw me shivering. It was always cold in this damned room.

"Goodnight Danny." I whispered into the darkness.

"Night Phoebe." He replied as my eyes fluttered close.
