Today is the day before the last Fall Out Boy concert of Monumentour. I have already made it to my hotel room for the night in Puyallup. The venue is a block away, so I can walk. I found out where it is as well, so I won't have to ask for directions or anything.

I'm jet lagged at the moment, so I'm just gonna go to sleep.

I must have slept a good 11 hours because I went to bed at 11pm and woke up at 10am. Hmm what should I do today?

Oh, I know, I have been wanting to get my hair cut and coloured for ages now, but I've never plucked up the courage to do it. I might as well surprise Pete even more.

I'll have to think about what I want done.

I'm kind of famous now. I mean, I wouldn't say really famous where people crowd around me asking for pictures and autographs, but mine and Pete's episode of Catfish has been on TV a few times now, it aired last month, and people recognise me from that. And for being Pete's girlfriend. 

Petes been screenshoting us on FaceTime together and posting it in Instagram. There was some nice comments, and some hate comments, Pete gets protective over me when it comes to them, and tells people to back off, but I don't really care. Actually I find them quite funny because people who I don't know are commenting this stuff about me. That's the thing, I don't know them and they don't know me, so it doesn't affect me. However, if it was someone I personally knew of a family member or something, then it would affect me.

Most of these people commenting horrible things are just jealous fangirls, and I would know. I was one once. I respect that some people are protective over Pete because that's a fangirls job, but they just need to calm down a bit.

I put on a plain grey tank top and some black leggings and my black and white converse. Something that won't pull too much attention to me.

I grabbed my bag, but made sure I had my room key and phone with me before I left.

I walked out of the lobby and down the street. I don't really know where everything is, so I guess I should just carry on walking until I find a hair salon somewhere.

I walked past a Starbucks, and I just couldn't help myself. Once I had got what I ordered, I continued my journey to find a hair salon somewhere.

After walking for another 10 minutes, I had finished my drink and found what I was looking for.

I walked in, hearing a little bell chime above me, signalling to the employees that they had a new customer. I walked up to the desk, and waited for someone to make an appointment for me.

An older woman walked up to the desk and started talking to me in the thick American accent. "Hello, how may I help you today?"

"Um I was wondering if I could have my hair done now, or as soon as possible, or do I have to make an appointment?" I asked.

"Lucky for you, one of our clients just dropped out, so there is a space free in about 15 minutes. Can you wait that long, or is there somewhere you need to be?" She asked.

"No I can wait, it's fine" I assured her while smiling and going to sit down in the waiting area.

I looked through some magazines whilst waiting, but another woman put one down that caught my eye. The front cover said in big bold letters 'Pete's new girlfriend: who is she?'

I picked it up and it said to got to page 12 for more information, so I did.

'Pete Wentz has a new girlfriend? Who is she? Well if you want to know who she is, then watch "Catfish around the world" season 1 episode 1. Her name is Phoenix Goddard, and she's from England. No wonder he's swooning over her, her accent is gorgeous and she's not too bad for the eye either.

They met over text message when Pete got the wrong number, but was this fate, or just a coincidence? Too bad she thought she was talking to the one and only Brendon Urie for 2 years, until she put a stop to it by emailing Max and Nev. we may have only just found out about the lovebirds, but it turns out they have been keeping this secret from us for 4 months now.

So, we want to know what you think. Is it just a summer romance, or will they be the next "America's Suitehearts"?'

I know I should expect things like this, but I can't help but feel angry that they didn't bother to ask us before putting this in their magazine. The date tells me it was published 2 days ago. They put a couple of pictures  of us on the side. One of us sitting in his lounge when he was telling us the truth about why he Catfished me, and the other was one of his pictures off Instagram where he screenshot us on FaceTime.

"Phoenix Goddard?" One of the hairdressers called out. Everyone in the shop turned to look at me. They must have either read the article, or they had seen the show.

I walked up to her and she sat me down I the chair. "So what would you like done today?" She asked.

"Um, could I dye my hair like an ombré blue and have it cut to my collarbones?" I asked.

"Sure" she said. "I'm gonna have to bleach your hair first, ok?"

"Yeah, that's fine"

As she was bleaching my hair, we made small talk. "It's wired sitting in a chair and having someone else do my hair"

"Oh, why?" She asked.

"Because I'm a hairdresser as well...but back in England" I said.

"Oh, are you here on holiday or something?" She asked.

"Kind of, I'm going to surprise my boyfriend...Today, actually" I said.

"Oh. Aren't you dating Pete Wentz?" She asked.

"Yeah, I am" I said.

"Cool. What's it like?" She asked.

"It's nice, it's like any other relationship really, except I live in England and he lives in America, but he's on tour at the moment. Well, today's the last day, but once I go home we will still have to Skype everyday" I said. She just nodded.

After 2 hours, she had finished with my hair. It used to be really long and blonde, but now it's short and a blue ombré from dark to light.

"It looks amazing, thank you" I said.

"Anytime" she sad back to me smiling.

I walked up to the desk at the front of the shop and paid.

Luckily, I had remebered the root back to the hotel, so I got there after walking for 20 minutes. It's a good thing no one recognises me with my new hair cut, not that they did while I was in my way there. I just really can't be bothered with anyone right now. I'm still quite angry from that magazine article.

Hey guys, I hope you enjoyed the first chapter, if anyone actually reads it.

I had a lot of fun and laughs from writing the first book, and I hope to do the same with this one. I hope you get the same reactions as me with some things, and most importantly, I hope you have enjoyed the last book and continue to enjoy this one up until it's finished.

Thank you for reading. Bye.
