Christina and I walked hand in hand to an art studio down the street. She had informed the boys about our adventure and they agreed to let us go, as long as we came back in time for me to meet the guy named Eben. CM~ alright cutie, what do you want to paint? ( it is one of those ceramic places ) I pointed to a crown I saw. She smiled and picked it up, talking to the worker. The guy took us back to a room and let me pick out paints. I picked out pink to match my room. Christina was sooooooooooooooo nice! She let me paint, she helped me so it actually looked nice! We finally finished about an hour later. The guys told us to come by tomorrow to pick it up. M~ can you tell him thank you for me please? I whispered in Tina's ear. She nodded and picked me up, after paying. CM~ thank you! Guy~ yup, bye. We walked back to the rehearsal place. I came in and got scared immediately. E~ hey Marlee! I'm Eben! What's up? He was really loud! He was also realllllly tall standing in front of me. All the other boys had been comforting and they had squatted down to my size. Eben didn't. He kept talking to me and dancing around. He was super hyper. I saw Dani behind Eben, he looked worried. Christina knelt down next to me, rubbing my back. All of a sudden he started signing Lambo. He was signing so loudly that I finally couldn't take it, I screamed, covered my ears, and cried. Tears rolled down my face. I didn't like Eben. He was so loud around me! He was intimidating! E~ oh my gosh... I'm so sorry. What did I do? Daniel rushed over with the others behind him. D~ she doesn't like loud noises, she is sensitive. Mar, hey it's ok. Christina had picked me up during this time. She handed me to Dani. I cling to him. I was still crying as Daniel rubbed my back. D~ ssshhh little one. It's ok Marlee. It's ok. I've got you. As Daniel was calming me down, I thought of the song Eben had sang. It was about a car, I knew that. I don't like cars anymore. I hate them in fact. The only way I would go in the car would be if I was with Dani. On his lap. Not my car seat. I couldn't. I'm scared. CB~ hey, Eben. It's ok! JA~ yeah, she's just scared of new people. Honestly. Z~ yeah dude. Your good. Jonah gave Eben a smile. The guy, August, I met earlier, told the boys they were finished and could go now. CM~ come on, let's go get dinner and have some fun! It's getting late anyways. I just cling to Daniel as the rest of the boys got their stuff and headed to the car. M~ no! No caws! I did not want to go in my car seat. I did not want to go in the car. Unless I sat on Daniel's lap. D~ why Marlee? I explained to him my problem. He let me sit on his lap as Jonah drove to the pier. Corbyn told me I was really going to like it. We parked and Daniel got out, handing me to Zach. I held tight to him. Z~ you want dinner babygirl? M~ yes pwease I was still a little spooked from earlier so I stayed quite as everyone else talked and laughed. Zach got me this thing called a corn dog. Z~ is it good Mar? I nodded and kept eating it. It was really good! I was being held by Zach still, he brushed my hair back and let me continue to eat. Corbyn and Christina decided to take some pictures. I watched them as Jonah took the pictures. When I finished my corn dog I really wanted ice cream. I decided to ask as nicely as I could. M~ Zachy? Can I pwease have ice cweam? Z~ of course sweet pea! Jack will take you over there ok? He pointed to a shop. He put me down, I grabbed Noddles hand, which was held out for me. We went over to the ice cream place and Jack got me a cup of cookie dough. Yum! M~ Noooodddlee? He smiled down at me after paying. He took a bite of his ice cream. JA~ Maaarrrleee? M~ I'm tired, are you? He laughed again. JA~ kinda, yeah! I skipped away. Jack chased after me. I ran and hid behind Jonah's legs. JM~ monkey! M~ Noodle is chaswing mwe! Everyone laughed at Jack, he tripped while running after me. Aww. Poor Noodle! M~ NOODLE AWR WOU OKIE He stood and grabbed me, tickling me. JA~ yes I am! I giggled. After he finished I ate the rest of my ice cream, then Corbyn picked me up. He saw my eyes starting to droop and close. I was really tired because I hadn't had my two hour nap like usual. It was also around nine at night, I saw it on Daniel's phone. I fell asleep I guess.

All of a sudden I heard a loud * POP *! The sky lit up with color. I started crying. It was loud and I was tired. All I wanted to do was sleep! CB~ sshh! It's ok, they are just fireworks! See pretty fireworks! M~ no! Loud fiwewowks! Corbyn covered my ears with his hands as he put me on the ground to watch. They were very pretty but way to loud! Why was everything so loud?! The boys and Christina watched the fireworks while Corbyn covered my ears. Finally they were over and I could fall asleep again. I laid my head on Bean's shoulder, he picked me up and I could feel his smile. He had an arm under my butt and the other rubbing my back. It was chilly, I was shivering, so Corbean put his sweatshirt around me like a blanket. I snuggled into his warm hug and fell into a deep sleep. Right before I did though I heard Christina. CM~ wow. What a sweet little girl... she's already my favorite girl. If you guys ever need anything I'm there.
