~Janelle's POV~

The boys and I stepped out of the van, looking up at the large Disney sign. I felt a smile form on my face, seeing my favorite place as a kid. A pair of arms wrap around me, pulling me into a hug.

"Now, this isn't the Orlando Disney." I heard Jack whisper into my ear.

"I know that, I'm not dumb." I answered, rolling my eyes. "But that doesn't make this any less special."

I pulled away from the hug and eagerly followed Jonah to the security gate, the other boys following behind us. There were people everywhere, making me feel a little anxious. I haven't been to any theme parks since I moved to California, scaring me at the thought of large crowds.

"Calm down, Nellie. Remember, it's the happiest place on Earth." Jonah said to me, obviously noticing my hesitance.

"I know, I know. It was my favorite place as a kid, I don't know why I'm second guessing myself."

Jonah wrapped his long arm around my shoulders, pulling me closer to him. My eyes wandered around, bringing back memories from when we were younger.

"Come on, Jack! You are being super slow." I shouted, running up the large Mickey Mouse.

"No I'm not, you are just being too quick." He argued, not helping his case.

Jack and I broke out in laughter, realizing how dumb we were being. We weren't little 7 year olds anymore, but that doesn't mean that we couldn't have any fun.
I approached the mouse first, giving a large smile. Jack soon ran up to me, along with Sydnie. We positioned ourselves around Mickey, and looked at the camera that Kristen was holding.

"Say.. Disney!" Mom shouted as Kristen took the pictures.

"Disney!" We all shouted, giving our biggest smiles.

"Awww, look at how cute you all are!" Kristen shouted, showing us the picture.

"It reminds me of when you were all little," Mom added in a squeamish tone.

"Mom, we aren't little anymore. We are 13." I complained, linking arms with Jack.

"You hear that, Kristen? They are 13 now!" Mom said sarcastically.

"I know right, Anne. They grow up so fast." Kristen answered, glaring at the two of us.

"Mommy, can we go look at the castle!" Ava shouted, tugging on Kristen's shirt.

"I don't know, you will have to ask everyone else." She answered, looking at us again.

I looked and Jack, and then Sydnie. Sydnie didn't care, and Jack gave me an excited look. We nodded our heads, giving the group permission to see Cinderella's castle. Jack and I, still linking arms, ran off ahead of the group. There was so much to see in so little time. If we wanted to see everything, our group had to get a move on.

~Jack's POV~

The boys, Janelle, and I walked into the Disney gift shop. There were stuffed animals everywhere, along with the occasional Mickey Mouse ears. Looking around the store, my inner child self was screaming. It was a little kid's paradise.

"Jack! Come look at these Mickey Mouse ears," Janelle shouted from across the store.

I ran up to her, seeing rows of Mickey and Minnie ears. "You thinking what I'm thinking?"

She gave an excited nod and grabbed a pair of both, shoving the Mickey ears onto my head. It was hard though, seeming that my curls were holding the band up. A large laugh escaped from my mouth, watching Janelle struggle to keep the headband on my hair.

"Nellie, I got this." I said swatting her hand away.

I took off the rubber band I was wearing and tied my hair into a bun. Janelle was then able to place the Mickey Mouse ears comfortably on my head, bringing a smile to our faces.

"Dude, you are buying mouse ears without us?" I heard Zach screech in my ear, causing me to wince from his loudness.

"Sorry, Z. It's a best friend thing," Janelle smirked, making Zach groan in jealousy.

"Come on, Zach. We don't need these love birds," Daniel complained, pulling him away.

I shook my head and looked back at Janelle who was now wearing her Minnie ears. We walked over to the register to pay for the ears, twinning them out like we used to.

"Aren't you having fun, Nellie? Isn't this the best way to celebrate the band's 5 month anniversary." I asked, handing the money to the cashier.

Janelle nodded in agreement, making her ears slip down her face. She started to blush, me pushing her ears back on top her head. As we walked out to find the boys, Janelle's phone buzzed. She looked down, showing a worried look.

"What's wrong, Nellie?" I asked concerned.

"I-it.. Bret went to jail, right?" Janelle answered, looking up at me with fear in her eyes.

"Yeah, why?"

She turned her phone around to show a message from another unknown number. My heart dropped, reading what the message said.

-

unknown

I can't believe what you did,
you little snake. This is not
over, your life will be a living
hell as long as I'm alive. There
is no way you can catch me.
You might of caught my assistant,
but he only does my light work.
I got so much in plan for you..

-

"We have to tell the boys," I said, taking Janelle's hand.

She pulled back, "No, we can't, Jack."

"Why?"

"I-I don't know.. I don't want them to get worried."

"Nellie, we have to. We have to catch whoever this unknown number is and take them down."

"You saw what they said, Jack. They will make my life a living hell and I don't even know why they want to. We've already been through so much, if we tell the others it will only make things worse.."

I stepped closer to Janelle, seeing her eyes start to water. It hurt me seeing her like this, helpless and confused. But we can't let this happen, we need to get help.

"Janelle, we need to tell someone. Not saying anything makes things twice as much worse. At least if we tell the boys, we will have back up." I said, pulling her into a tight hug.

I let Janelle cry into my chest, holding her tight. We stayed there for a while, until to the other boys came running towards us. They could see our worry, we have to tell them.

"Guys, what's going on?" Corbyn whispered to us, putting his hand on my shoulder.

"Bret, he.. this is not the end.."
