*Carters POV*

I moved my hand slowly to Isabelle's. I hope I wasn't rushing this. I hadn't asked her out, and I was already trying to hold her hand. As I touched it, she looked at me, and I looked back at her. She held my hand as well.

YES! I wasn't rushing this.

"So why'd you just want to hang out?" She asked me.

I couldn't tell her I liked her.

"I just think you should get to know this place."

She smiled at me.

*Isabelle's POV*

Okay, it's official. I like him, and he likes me. How do I tell him I like him though? Do I wait until he tells me? Or do I just tell him?

"So, do you want to go to the mall?" He asked.

"Sure! But, I don't have money."

"You don't have to worry about money, honey." He said.

I let out a small laugh.

"You sure?" I asked.

"Yes. I'm sure."

I then remembered, I told Zoe I would call her.

CRAP! I thought.

"Crap what?" Carter asked.

"Oh, did I say that out loud?" I asked.

He nodded.

"Well, I told my best friend Zoe I would call her when I got here. But I forgot to."

"You can call her now, I won't mind."

I smiled at him.

"Thanks."

I let go of his hand and called her.

"Hey Zoe Boey." I said. I have called her that for a while, and it kinda stuck.

"Hey Izz Fizz." She said. That one was because I loved soda, so she got the idea to call me the fizz from it.

"I've been in town for a couple hours now, I just forgot to call you. Ya know, unpacking and stuff."

"Yeah, I understand. So have you met anyone?" She asked.

"Actually, yes. I met someone on the plane."

"Oh yeah? And who's that?"

"You won't ever believe me."

"Why?"

"Because I met Carter Reynolds."

"You did not!!"

"I told you you wouldn't believe me!"

"Prove it!!"

"Okay I will!"

I put the phone on speaker.

"Carter say hi!" I said to him.

"Uh, hi?" He said.

Zoe just squealed.

"I told you!"

I put the phone off speaker. Zoe and I talked until we reached the mall.

"Zoe I gotta go. I'll talk to you later."

"Okay, bye."

She hung up and I put my phone in my pocket.

"Ready?" Carter asked.

I smiled and nodded. Carter got out and he ran over to my side before I got out, and he opened my door.

"Thank you!" I said.

"You're welcome."

He held out his hand for me to grab it. I did. We went into the mall, when about 4 girls came over super excited.

"Hey you're Carter Reynolds!" One said.

"That I am."

I saw another girl look down and notice Carter and I are holding hands. She gave me a dirty look.

"Can we have an autograph?!" Another said.

"Course." He said.

A couple of them had a MagCon shirt on and he signed the back of the shirt. The others didn't, so they just took a picture. Carter and I ended up not holding hands anymore so he could take the pictures. One of them (the one that gave me a dirty look) kissed his cheek. I was SO angry!! They finally went away.

"Now are you ready?" He asked.

"Possibly."

He grabbed my hand again, and we started walking. I thought:

'Why are we holding hands? We aren't dating.'

I don't have a problem with it. But just, why?

"Hey Carter?" I ask.

"Yes'm?" He says.

"I don't have a problem with this, but why are you holding my hand?"
