5SOS - Babysat By Idiots 2

Chapter 60

They were squealing and saying, "Oh, my gosh! I love you! Can I get a picture?!" None of them were my age. They were all like, 16 to 18 years old. And they were all so pretty.

Michael mumbled to me, "I knew I should've called my bodyguard."

I looked up at him and said, "You have a bodyguard???" I should've expected that. He's famous. We needed to think fast.

So this is what Michael did. "Okay, you guys. Here's the thing. You can all have pictures if you just give Nicole a minute to go..." He paused for a second and saw a pair of girl's jeans on the rack. He grabbed them and said, "to go buy these pants."

The girls calmed down and while I thought that they were fooled and didn't know why I needed the pants, one of the girls gasped and said, "Oh, my goodness. Did she rip her pants?"

My eyes widened and I looked at Michael.

Then all of the girls were like, "Awwwww... It's okay, sweetheart. We won't tell anyone." I was shocked at their response.

Michael said, "Wow, thank you so much. Nicole, the dressing rooms are over there. I'm going to go tell the cashier your situation and buy the jeans, okay? Then you can walk out of here with those jeans on."

Michael handed me the pants. They were black skinny jeans, OF COURSE.

I went to the dressing rooms and quickly changed into them. After that, I came out and all 6 girls were waiting out there for me. "Ooooh! Those look so good on you!" One of them said.

They all began to compliment me and my pants. I was saying thank you to everyone. These girls were SUPER nice. One of the girls said, "Can I have you number?"

I replied, "Umm, I don't have a phone. I have an iPod."

"Then I can give you my number. Here, give me your arm and I'll write it down. I have a pen in my purse somewhere," said the girl. I didn't want to be rude so I put my arm out and she got her pen from her purse.

"Ooh! I wanna write my number down too!" Said another girl, and before I knew it, I had a full-tatted arm with 6 phone numbers up and down it. It looked like a mess, but I was happy that these girls cared for me so much. I mean, I just made 6 new beautiful friends before I even got to high school. This is pretty awesome.

I took a few pictures with them and so did Michael.

Before we left the store, we thanked them for what they had done. They promised not to post my situation on Twitter. They just said that they would post the pictures they got with me and Michael and said they ran into us at the mall. Man, 5SOS fans are the BEST fans in the world. They are freaking LOYAL. I love them.

We left to go to the car. While in the car, I was holding my bag of boots one hand, and my Beau's precious phone number in the other. I can't believe I was actually going to go home with 7 numbers from strangers just from going to the mall. Me and Michael should go to the mall more often. I just couldn't wait to get home now!

I was going to try on the boots and text Beau's number. Of course, I couldn't call him for a number of reasons.

When we got home, I got out of the car really fast and ran to the door. I opened it and saw Calum sitting on the couch. "Calum, guess what I got from the mall!" I said excitedly.

"What did you get from the mall, Nicole?" Asked Calum, clearly trying to humor me.

I showed him the boots and said, "We went to Claire's and Michael bought me -- ..." I paused my sentence slowing down my words as I saw a strange girl coming out of our kitchen. "... these really... fluffy... boots."

I stared at the odd girl with furrowed eyebrows. I was just standing there in silence.

She had short black hair and perfect winged eye liner.

Michael broke the silence and said, "And 6 phone numbers." I looked at Michael.

Calum said, "6 phone numbers? What the hell?"

A loud, muffled voice from upstairs yelled, "Language!" It was Ashton. We all laughed.

Calum continued, "By the way, Nicole, this is my friend, Nia. She's a part of Hey Violet."

I had absolutely no idea what "Hey Violet" was, but I assumed it was a band. I mean, it made sense. I decided to be nice and say, "Oh. Hello."

Nia smiled and said back, "Hi! Your name's Nicole, right?"

"Yeah," I replied.

"Nice to meet you, Nicole. Whoa, your arms are really tatted up! Are those the phone numbers you got?" Said Nia.

"Yeah, they are," I responded.

Michael added, "They were fans that we ran into in the mall." Michael looked down at me and I looked up at him. I knew he was going to keep my secret safe.

"By the way, Nicole ripped her pants."

"Michael!" I said. Okay, so much for keeping a secret.

Nia said, "You ripped your pants?"

Michael said, "Yeah, she did. Not sure how but I was looking for some new jeans and she was all the way on the other side of the store and when I had went up to her, she was on the floor and said she'd ripped her pants. Then we walked to Ardine's and quickly bought her a new pair."

"Oh, my god, Nicole," Said Calum with a smile, "That must be embarrassing."

"You won't believe what else happened to her outside of the mall though," said Michael.

I remembered the number in my hand and smiled.

"There was this like, 14-year-old boy sitting on the side with a guitar playing and he called Nicole over and was really weird with her like holding her hand and kissing it and stuff. His name was like, Bane or something, but it was really weird. And he told her she was beautiful and stuff," said Michael.

I added, "His name was Beau, Michael. Not Bane." Everyone started laughing, including Calum.

I decided to then go upstairs with my boots and phone number in my hands and close my door. I wanted to try the boots on first.

As I put them on, I smiled. THEY WERE A PERFECT FIT. They were so cozy! I didn't want to take them off, but I didn't want them to get worn out, so I carefully took them off my feet and put them in my wardrobe.

Then I opened my hand and saw the number. My smile would not leave my face. I was about to do something legendary and that I was going to remember for my entire life.
