MatthewWhat am I doing? As far as I know, I’m not a babysitter. Then why am I in a salon picking out a hairstyle for a twenty-two year old girl with long wavy hair that’s most of the time frizzy. First a tattoo, now a hair color? What’s next? Eyeliners and black clothing? This girl is sure late on rebellion. I wouldn’t wonder if she starts listening to emo music anytime soon. In fact, I would be more surprised if she doesn’t.“How about it? Find anything?” the hairdresser asked. She’s been asking me the exact same thing for about a dozen times. Seriously, what do I know about girl’s hair.I shrugged. “What do you think? You’re more knowledgeable at this matter than me.” I sighed.“Are your curls natural, dear?” she asked Cassie, gently holding her huge curls on her palm. She seems to admire them. Well, if only she would dye her hair blonde, she would definitely look like Goldiloc

"Oh my god! It's Cameron Reid in the flesh and blood!" Mel said excitedly as she was turning her closet upside down looking for an outfit to wear later. Landon called Cameron earlier and he said he could go for drinks this evening. Unfortunately, Wallace had a prior commitment. Shame."I really wished Wallace could come," Mel said. "Don't worry, I'll share Cameron with you so you won't be lonely.""You're crazy," I said throwing a pillow at her. Typical fangirl alert."What do you think about this?" she said holding up a top and a high-waist shorts. I wonder why she's asking me about this stuff when she's the fashion guru between the two of us."It's good," I said. She's been showing me about a dozen combinations for the past hour. I've been nodding my head off every time, not sure if my opinion even affects her decision. She's Mel. Whatever she puts on looks good on her.Me, on the other hand, I plan on wearing a dress but I guess they're a bit too formal f

Matthew"Coffee?" Kasey offered as I entered the pantry of our studio the next day. We had a rough night last night and to be honest, I was expecting our manager to cut us some slack but hearing how we got so wasted last night made him even more stern on us following our schedule especially just right before a tour. He even personally went into our place this morning to make sure we whip our asses out of bed."Make me one of those, will you?" I asked Landon as I took a seat and rubbed my temple with my hand. He was making a concoction for hangover. I don't care whatever he puts in it as long as it makes the pounding in my head go away. Good thing he was already up; Clark passed out on the couch as soon as he stepped inside.Cassie came in the same time Landon started running the blender. Crap! The sound felt like it was grinding my brains instead. I watched Cassie as she went to the refrigerator and filled a glass with orange juice, then went and took a seat beside Ka

Think, Matthew. Think.What did I do last night? Did I do something inappropriate? Did I say something to offend her?No matter how much I think about it, I can't remember anything about last night. This is so frustrating. Cassie's been giving off weird vibes since this morning and I wish I could attribute it to PMS but the strange hostility has been directed at me and me alone.Do I smell? Am I carrying a strange virus or something? She literally stays within two meters from me and whenever I try to approach her, she leaves the room instantly. She obviously went out during lunch, which she never does, just to avoid me. She only talks to Kasey and worst, she doesn't even look at me.Does she like Kasey?Did something happen between those two last night?Stupid, Matthew! What am I even thinking? I swear I just started to get more irrational thoughts with each passing second.Should I just ask her? She didn't even want to talk about it this morning.

"Landon, do you mind if we take off for a bit?" Mel asked. We just finished the video and it would probably take a while before we get some considerable amount of feedback. Landon and the rest were done practicing and were just goofing around. More like him bullying the others."Sure, where are you guys going?" Landon said. He momentarily let go of the struggling Kasey who took the opportunity to escape. He stared after him like a predator that lost his prey."Meeting Mel's potential love interest," I said and Mel suddenly hit me. She starts hitting people within arm's reach when she can't contain her excitement. Her arms weren’t even that long, I had to just move my chair an inch further and she looks more like a flailing fish out of the water. That or she looks like she would probably burst from lack of air. I think she forgot to breathe when she met Niche Syndrome for the first time."Go ahead," Landon said encouragingly. "At least someone here's actually get
