Caroline’s POV

My mom is very protective of me. I doubt that she will let me go off with 5 boys for 2 weeks. Even if Ellen is promoting it. I swear sometimes she is just too protective. My mom and I are very close. I feel like she is one of my best friends. I don’t know what I would do without her. She always listens even if she has something else to do. Gabby and I walk down the hallway. We peek into rooms sometimes walking in on people working or eating.

We saw a door with a star on it. I assumed this was Ellen’s so I knocked on the door. Gabby and I stood there waiting for a while. Suddenly, the door opened. A woman wearing a tight red dress stepped out into the hall. She had long brown hair and big brown eyes. My little fandom heart almost died.

“Can I help you?” Lea Michele asked. I love glee so much it hurts. I cried when Quinn got in the accident and when Rachel messed up her audition. I cried myself to sleep for 3 nights after the breakup up episode in season 4. I guess you could call me a Gleek.

“Hi, guess we got the wrong room.” Gabby said turning to me. I was still frozen with shock. Lea Michele was looking at me. ME!!! I can’t believe it.

“This is my friend Caroline and I’m gabby.” Gabby explains. I manage a little wave. Lea smiles at me and gives Gabby a concerned look.

“She is a huge fan of Glee. Most of the time after a new episode it is all she can talk about for the next 2 days. She sang Rain on my Parade for her own audition in Middle School.” Gabby tells her. I want to throw my hand over her mouth so that she will stop embarrassing me but its all I can do to look at Lea. 

“I love your voice so much.” I say. I mentally face-palm myself. Such a stupid thing to say to her! I can’t believe I did that. I had dreamed for years of what I would say if I met a celebrity but now as soon as I do I choke and say I love your voice! She smiled at me.

“I love all the Gleeks out there. Do you want a picture?” she asked me very calmly. I nodded.

We posed for a picture and then she signed a piece of paper I found in Gabby’s purse. We waved goodbye to her and she retreated into her dressing room. I waited until we had walked a good 20 feet away from her door. Then I started to fangirl, HARD. I jumped up and down and squealed while Gabby just stood there. She shook her head at me and we continued on our search for Ellen.

20 MINUTES LATER

“WHERE THE HELL IS HER DRESSING ROOM?” I screamed running down a random hallway. Gabby followed me arms crossed across her chest and started to laugh. I turned around to face her.

“What  the hell is wrong with you?” I asked. She just pointed to the door to my right. I turned. Ellen stood in the doorway trying to suppress a gigantic grin.

“Shiz, of fudging course.” I mutter. My mom comes out and gives me a stern look. She gestures for me to follow her down the hall. We go into an empty room. She points to a chair. Sitting down I look at her and smile.

“This is the best day ever!” I say jumping in my spot. She shakes her head.

“I have several rules if you are going off to Hawaii with these boys.” She shudders at the word boys. I roll my eyes, here we go again.

“Rule number 1: No sex.” She states.

“MOM!” I cry. I can’t believe she would say that! I am 18 years old I can handle myself and my body. Not that I would want to do that with any of them. I am a virgin for crying out loud.

“Just saying these are hormone raged teenage boys. Rule 2: Don’t get arrested” She said seriously.

“Mom, the most trouble I have ever gotten in was a detention in 7th grade.” I cried exasperated.  She is being so unreasonable.

“You know what here this is the list of rules follow them and nothing bad can happen to you.” She hands me a piece of notebook paper that has her slanted handwriting on it. I raise my eyebrow at her then look down at the list.

“I have already given a copy to each of the boys. The one with the buzz cut promised to follow them.” She explained. I rolled my eyes. Liam, of course…

I read over the list and this is what it says:

MOM’S RULES FOR ONE DIRECTION AND CAROLINE ( AND GABBY):

I looked at my mom. How could she give this to all of the guys already. I am going to die.  No scratch that I already have died. This is terrible. I just give my mom a horrified look and shake my head.

“You are lucky I am letting you go at all” She breathes. I grimace.

“I love you mom.” I say and give her a hug. The quicker I get out of here the less chance she has to embarrass me.

“I love you too Caroline. Really. Be careful. I love you so much.” She engulfed me in a gigantic hug. She kissed me on the cheek and patted my back. Breaking the hug she sent me off into the hallway where I thanked Ellen. She said it was her pleasure and told me to come back onto the show and tell her all about it. I told her I would. I did my final goodbyes with my mom and headed down the hallway to the tour bus. Gabby stopped suddenly and told me she had left something in the studio. I told her to meet me at the bus. I would go ahead. She agreed and I headed forward on my own.      

                I wasn’t paying attention and I ran right into someone. I fell to the floor and then looked up at the person.

“What are you doing here?” I asked.

That was quick
