I don't know what Lucy is doing in England. Or why she would consider being our nanny but I go to sleep without any protest. I hope the interviews go well tomorrow....

The next morning I'm woken up by Perri shaking me.

"Amber..." He keeps, saying.

I don't answer and turn to my side.

"Amber- seriously. Get up." He sighs.

"What?" I moan.

"You need to come see this..." He says.

I get up as he leads me to the curtain that sheilds the light from the window.

"Are you trying to blind me?" I scowl.

"No- just wait..." Perri says.

He opens up the window and I swear- hundreds of fans are standing outside our house. They all start screaming when they see us.

"What the actual hell?" I exclaim.

"It's your nanny thing!" Perri shouts.

"Yeah..." I say frustratedly, "I didn't think the whole fandom would want to take care of the baby..."

Perri closes the curtain.

"Amber- these people outside are not here to take care of Reid. They're here to see us!" Perri says.

Oh, gosh.

"Well..." I say. "Let's just go out there. Sign autographs, take pictures- most of them will leave. The ones who actually want to be nannies will stay."

And soon Pel and I are changed and outside. Signing stuff and making sure people go. I just send another girl off when Karen comes up to me.

"I could hear this all the way from my house!" She says. "I hired two security guards..."

Two big men are now standing at the doors to our house.

I think we've reduced the crowd to about seventy people. Who want to actually stay for the interview.

"Thanks..." I say, hugging Karen.

I go back inside with Perri.

"That took forever..." He pants.

"Yeah- now time for the interviews..." I say. "Aren't you supposed to be at the studio?"

"I'm not leaving you here. Especially with this amount of people."

I nod and let the first girl in.

For goodness sake- she looks about fifteen!

"How old are you?" Perri asks.

She just stands there, starstruck.

"I'm sorry...but I'm going to ask you to leave..." Perri says.

She just stands there smiling and gasping.

Perri escorts her out.

It's kind of like that for most applyers. Just fans who wanted to enter our house. Soon we've interviewed everybody and we haven't found anyone.

Then a woman called Freya walks in- and she's actually quite good. So- we're keeping her in mind.

Soon everyone's gone.

"So...what do you think?" I ask Pel.

"This was a stupid idea anyway..." He says.

"It wasn't stupid-"

"Amber- stay at home! I wouldn't trust anyone!"

"I want to go to America! It's such a great opportunity! Why can't you see that?" I shout.
