Chapter 3 – Kitty’s POV

After we’d all gotten to the food court and found some tables to sit at, Mel started looking around for David and the other VFC guys while Missy and Bailz went off to Sbarrro’s to get us something to eat. I was talking to Marta about LA life when I suddenly heard Mel’s phone start ringing: I really hate to break it to you, but it’s the truth so I’m saving you, I know you don’t want to hear the bad news, but it’s the truth so I’m saving you. I’m your getaway driver, your getaway driver, your getaway driver; let me take you away from this temporary love.

Reaching into her pocket, Mel pulled out her phone and answered it, “Yello…? Hey, where are you guys…? Oh, you got caught up in Target? Not a prob, we’re just waiting around for Missy and Wackness to come back with our pizza… All right, see ya soon…” she suddenly laughed, “Bye Drewtful”

“Still got a few minutes ‘till the guys show up, huh?” Jenna asked, looking slightly disappointed as Mel hung up her phone and put it back in her pocket.

“Oh, don’t worry Jen, you’ll get to see Jayk soon,” Angel teased her with a smile.

“I know you’re anxious to see Bobby, so I’d just shut up,” Jenna shot back, then laughed a bit.

Talya smiled, looking up from texting on her phone, “Well, at least neither of you denies it”

“You mean like you do with the major crush you’ve got on David?” Mel interjected, then smiled, “And don’t try to deny it this time, we all saw how you acted in the car”

“She’s got a point,” Marta said, “I could tell you had a crush on him just from the conversation you had with him in the car, and I’m the new girl of the group”

“Hell, I knew when I first came here,” Angel spoke up, “It was obvious from the beginning”

Marta looked confused, so I leaned over to help her out, “Angel’s originally from Vancouver; she was the new girl until you and Erin showed up”

“Ooh,” she said, then nodded towards Mel as she randomly started waving frantically towards something, “What’s with her?”

“She usually gets excited when she can see David,” Jenna explained, “He and the guys are touring a lot, so it’s not often they can do things like this”

“What do you mean touri-” she cut off as she turned to look at something, then her jaw dropped, “Holy crap! Is that…?”

“Varsity Fanclub?” Mel finished with a laugh as I turned to see what Marta was in shock about, “You guessed it; I guess it would’ve been helpful to let you know who my brother actually is”

Marta just nodded, then pulled out her phone and flipped it open to text someone. “If you’re planning on texting me to tell me VFC’s here, don’t bother,” I heard Erin say and looked up to see her coming with the other guys.

Mel laughed, “Looks like you already found out that David’s my older brother”

Erin nodded, “And I was wondering what sounded so familiar about his voice”

“Safe to assume you guys are fans?” Jayk asked, and I could feel Marta tense up next to me.

“You could say that,” Erin said with a laugh, nodding towards Marta, “I mean, if you look at Mousie over there, it’s pretty obvious”

“No, really? I couldn’t tell,” Drew said with a laugh, then smiled as I noticed Marta blush, “But don’t worry about it; we’ve had worse fan encounters, believe me”

TC nodded, then looked up and smiled a bit, “Hey Missy, hey Bailz. Looks like we got here just in time”

Bailey smiled as she and Missy came back with a couple large pizzas, “Hey, hey; glad to see you guys actually show up for once,” suddenly, her face fell as she looked towards someone in the back of the group, and I turned to see that the One Call guys (some more recent additions to our little group) were there too, and Chris was standing in the back with Erin. I couldn’t help but feel a pang of anger when I saw him; he’d cheated on Bailey with a complete bitch, and no one in the group was ready to forgive him for it. It looked like we were going to have to, though; Erin was looking pretty happy as she talked to him. Looking over at Bailz, I noticed that she looked kinda worried.

“Hey, this seat taken?” I jumped at a voice behind me and turned to see Justin standing there, gesturing to the seat next to me.

I shook my head a bit, “Yeah, sorry, go ahead.” As he sat down, I felt butterflies in my stomach; he’d been on the top of my hot list for a while now, and I couldn’t help but be thrilled when I had to chance to hang out with him, even though it was never alone.

He gave me one of his million-dollar smiles as he sat down, “You look zoned, what’s up?”

“Nothing,” I quickly shook my head again, not wanting to tell him my thoughts on his band-mate, “Just thinking, is all”

He nodded, then looked out at the table, “I never knew you guys were so willing to accept kids into your little gang here, but it looks like Erin and Marta are fitting in okay”

“Oh yeah,” I said with a nod, “Erin and Mel hit it off right off the bat, and looks like Marta’s getting along pretty well with Jenna and Angel. They’ll get used to life here before we know it”

“With you guys taking them under your wing? Definitely”

I blushed a bit, smiling as I turned to Marta, who still looked dazed, “What’s up with you? You can’t still be in shock about hanging with the guys”

She shook her head, gesturing to where Erin and Mel were talking to Chris and José, “Just wondering how Erin does it; she’s talking to those two like she’s known them forever when I can barely even pluck up the courage to go over and say hi”

“It’s not that hard,” Missy jumped in from her seat on Marta’s other side, “All you have to do is go over and introduce yourself, maybe point out the fact that you just moved here and could use some pointers or something like that. Actually… I could use a wing-girl,” she nodded over towards where Drew and AG were talking, “I’ve been trying to get on AG’s radar for a little while, and maybe you could help me out”

“Maybe,” Marta said with a nod, “And getting to know Drew better would probably be nice…”

“Then c’mon!” Missy grabbed her arm and dragged her out of her chair, and I laughed a bit at the two of them as they went over to the two guys. Feeling my phone go off in my pocket, I pulled it out to check a text on the screen from Talya.

Would you stop laughing and start flirting already? JJ’s talking to YOU, girl!

I laughed a bit, putting my phone back in my pocket and turning back to Justin. The two of us were talking as we all ate our pizza and wings, and eventually the whole gang was wandering the mall as we tried to find something to do, which was remarkably hard to do for 7:00 on a summer Friday night in Los Angeles…
