The car ride was awkward. Well, it was for me. All I wanted was to spend some time with Jaiden, but Tony and Adam just had to come and ruin it. When we got to the pet store, Jaiden took Ari to the back room while Me, Adam, and Tony just wondered around. I looked at all the dogs and cats and decided that I'd give one of these creatures a home today. I texted Dom, making sure it was okay.

"You're getting another pet?" Adam asked, looking behind my shoulder

"You're getting another pet?" Adam asked, looking behind my shoulder.

"Yeah, I just feel bad every time I come to a pet store," I said. I knew that I couldn't get a cat because Jaiden and Rebecca were allergic to them, and I couldn't a dog because Floof was the only dog I needed. So with a painful heart, I got a hamster. I knew I would lose it in like two years, but I think that after going through thirteen hamsters I would be fine with it. I picked out a small sand-colored hamster and all its necessities with it.

I didn't know what to name her, so I put a poll out on twitter and most people chose Sandy

I didn't know what to name her, so I put a poll out on twitter and most people chose Sandy. So her name is Sandy. Around a half an hour later, Jaiden walked out with Ari and took one look at Sandy.

"Awwww! It's so cute!" she said, "What's its name?"

"Sandy," I replied, "Hopefully she won't die within a month."

"You probably should make a video about her," Tony said, "Then you can avoid the suggestion box."

"Yeah," I said, "But only if she does something interesting."

...

"Is this the kind we had?" Adam asked me holding up a watering can. After we left the pet store, we went to the hardware store to get another watering can. Jaiden and Tony decided to stay in the car with Ari and Sandy.

"Um...I don't think it matters," I said, "How did the watering can brake?"

"Too much water," Adam replied. I could tell he was lying, but I was afraid to know the reason why he was.

"Okay," I said, pretending to play along. My improv skills are finally useful.

"Oh my gosh! It's James and Adam!" Me and Adam turned around to see a ten-year-old boy jumping up and down. "Can you write you're name down on a piece of paper?" This kid has obviously seen my videos if he remembers back to the 'Being Recognized' video.

"Sure!" I said. The little boy handed me and Adam a piece of paper and I signed it the best I could. Then he looked at Adam.

"My favorite superhero is Captain America," He said. I could tell that Adam was touched. He knelt down to him and gave him a fist bump. After he left, Adam finally picked out a watering can and we headed back to the car.

"Took you long enough," Tony said, "Meanwhile in the car, me and Jaiden were-"

"No!" Jaiden said interrupting him, "That's too much information," I felt like I was going to be sick. Of course, I had no right to speak up for myself or Jaiden because I wasn't her official boyfriend. But I have the right to be sick. Right?
