Mia's POV

After breakfast we went to the nail shop. Demi had broken one of her acrylic nails on stage and needed to get it fixed before the next show. I had already got my nails done before the concert and since i was wearing boots it would be too much of a hassle to get a pedicure so i just sat and waited for the girls.

Leigh-Anne wasn't getting anything done either so she kept me company. We talked and joked. She was really cool.

An Asian lady that was doing Jade's pedicure turned around to speak to the lady behind her. It was in a different language, so we couldn't understand anything.

"I bet she's talking about Jade's toenails", Leigh-Anne said.

I laughed. "No way."

The lady started talking again and Leigh-Anne mimicked what she thought she was saying. "Her toenails so ugly. I wanna puke in my mouth. Disgusting. She never take shower her feet smell like all type of fungus."

I had to put my hand over my mouth to keep from laughing so hard.

The lady turned back to Jade. "You have nice toenail. Very pretty", she said.

Before Jade could say thank you, me and Leigh-Anne looked at each other and burst out in laughter. Everyone turned to stare at us and we tried to stop but it was like that time in one of my classes at College when someone stuck a sticky note that said "Pray For The Booty" with an arrow pointing down on my professor's lower back. We just couldn't stop.

People kept throwing annoyed glances our way and eventually we calmed down.

"Wow", Leigh-Anne said. "I never expected that"

"Me neither", I laughed.

I liked Leigh-Anne. She was really nice and chill. I hoped we could be friends apart from this.

"So..", she looked at me. "What's going on with you and Demi?"

"Huh, what? Um. N-Nothing", I stammered.

She crossed her arms and raised her eyebrows up at me. "Sure doesnt seem like 'nothing' ", she said.

I looked away from her.

"The way you guys were on the couch with each other and the way you came from the bathroom all smiling the same way you did at the house earlier... Mhm something's up. You guys are practically drooling over each other."

"Damn", i looked at her. "Is it that obvious?"

"Very", she nodded. "So what's up?"

"Nothing." She pursed her lips. "Well at least nothing yet", i retorted.

"Did you guys know each other before? I thought yesterday was the first time you met", she said.

"It was."

"Are you sure?"

"Of course. I think i would remember meeting my idol for the first time", I laughed.

"I know but... the way you guys look at each other. I dont believe in 'love at first sight' but you guys make it look like that might actually be real", she said earnestly.

"Really?" I couldn't hold back my smile.

She nodded. "Now i see why she let you spend the night. The other girls thought she was crazy or u paid her."

We laughed again. One of the ladies at the desk near us threw us a 'not again' look which made me laugh even more.

"You're really cool Leigh-Anne. Im glad we met", I smiled.
