Friends?

Oh Joey...

Loren's POV

We walked in and guess who we saw...

(This is going to be insanely awkward)

We saw Joey.

Oh My God! This can't be happening, I looked at Zach and he looked confused.

"Loren what's wrong?" he asked, I stood there shocked. "Loren, What's wrong" he asked again.

"J-joey" I stuttered

"What do you mean Joey?" he asked

"J-joey" I said once more and pointed out where he was standing, which was by the book shelf

"Oh My God! Loren I'm so sorry" he said and hugged me

"It's fine, Let's just buy what we were going to buy" I told him "Just act like we didn't notice him" I told him once we started to head to the 'Lady of Liberty' section and we got this hat that said 'Lady of Liberty' with a little torch in the middle.

"Are we going to buy these?" Zach asked

"Totally! It looks cute" I told him and bought the light pink one

"Does this one look good on me?" Zach asked and he put on the Black one on.

"Totally! What else should we buy?" I asked him

"How about this?" he asked. He grabbed a mini 'Sky Scraper' building.

"Oh My God yes! Its little and so adorable" I said and he gave me one

He chuckled "One more item and we leave" he said and I nodded

"How about a shirt" I said

"Yeah you get a shirt and i'll get a sweatshirt" he said and I nodded

"Oh My God Zach! I found the perfect sweatshirt for you" I told him and showed him the black sweatshirt with the Torch and at the top it said 'Lady of Liberty' 

"Oh cool! You should get the same sweatshirt and forget the shirt" he told me

"You know what, I'm going to do just that" I told him we went to pay for our stuff and we were third in line.

That's when I felt a tap on my shoulder, it wasn't Zach because he was next to me so once I turned around. That was the biggest mistake ever, well third biggest mistake ever. It was Joey

"Joey what a surprise" I said in a fake excitement voice, once that sentence left my mouth Zach's head snapped to my direction.

"Yeah super cool" Joey said and then he looked at Zach "Oh hey Zach, didn't see you there" he was clearly lying.

"Yeah me neither, Until I heard your name" Zach fake smiled

"Ok, Anyway. Joey what do you want?" I asked with a sigh

"Nothing just wanted to see if you were ok" he said

"Well I am, thanks for asking" I said and we were now paying and once we were done we were about to walk out but then I heard something.

"Loren! Loren!" I turned around and Joey was a few feet behind Zach and I.

"What's wrong?" I asked him and sighed.

"Why did you break up with me?" he asked, I looked at him in disbelief then I looked at Zach and he just looked confused

"What do you mean 'Why I broke up with you?" I asked

"One day we were ok and the next" he stopped "the next you broke up with me" he said.

"Well maybe I broke up with you because I caught you cheating on me!?" I whisper yelled. His eyes widened as I told him why I broke up with him.

"Its not what it looked like" he said

"Oh rea-" I was cut off by Zach

"Oh please that's the oldest line in the book" Zach said

"Its true" he said

"Oh really then what is it exactly" I asked him and narrowed my eyes

"Well..." he stood there looking like a idiot "You see" he kept thinking of an excuse

"That's what I thought" I looked at him and turned around

"Wait!" he said and I turned back around

"What!" I yelled and turned around. Everyone looked at me weirdly and then walked away

"Take me back" he pleaded

I was about to answer before Zach said something

"She can't" he said I looked at him confused

"And why not?" Joey asked clearly not convinced

"Because she's dating me" as soon as he said that my eyes widened

"we are?" I asked

"we are" he stated, this was funny because Joey was shocked

"Oh Really then why aren't you holding hands or kissing" he asked with a grin

That's when I narrowed my eyes at him.

"Maybe because we're keeping it lowkey" Zach said

Joey looked around "There's no teen aged girls here why don't you hold hands?" he asked innocently

I looked around and he was right there was nobody here, so I did what I had to do. I grabbed Zach's hand and interwined our fingers. Joey looked even more shocked then before.

"Kiss him" Joey said

"What?!" I looked at him in disbelief

"I said kiss him" he repeated

"Ok" I turned around and pecked Zach's lips "Are you satisfied now?" I asked him and he nodded

"Ok then babe let's go" Zach said and we walked away.

"Oh My God thanks for playing along" I told him and he nodded,

"What time is it" Zach asked

I checked my phone and it was 3:59pm

"Its 3:59pm we still have half-hour to kill, do you want to eat?" I asked him

"Yeah sure, but first we need to let go" he saids pointing to our hands

"Oh right" I said and let go of his hands "Lets go to a pizza parlor" and he nodded

Once we got to the pizza parlor there was a few fans and we took pictures and ate. Ince we were heading back to the hotel it was already 4:15. When we got to the hotel it was 4:23. Maddie was showering when we entered the room so we started to pick out our clothes. I Picked out a grey Adidas shirt with white shorts and a white hat.

When Maddie got out of the shower I went in. By the time we were done it was 5:30, so we had 30 mins to go down to the stage and do all the other stuff

***Time Skip To The Next Day***

The show yesterday was great. Today we made plans to go to Central Park. So I woke up super early, so I could wake everyone else up.

"EVERYONE GET UP!" I yelled at the top of my lungs

"UGH! What is wrong with you!" Maddie yelled

"Nothing we have to hurry up if we want to go to Central Park!" I said excited

"Ok Ok! Let me shower" Maddie said while she picked out some clothes and ran into the shower, then I noticed Zach didn't wake up so I jumped on him and shook hima awake.

"Zach wake up!" I yelled in his ear and he opened hi eyes

"What do you want!" he said

"Get up we're going to Central Park!" I said excited

"Ok let me get changed" he said

"Hurry I'm the only one that's ready" I said and went to the balcony because Zach was changing

I can't wait to go to Central Park.
