“No, you’re not making me sit through another interview,” I said firmly.
He folded his arms across his chest, but kept a smile on his lips for the benefit of the cameras around us. “You have a part to play, remember?”
“I also have a bladder to empty,” I joked, and when he raised an eyebrow at me, I jerked my thumb toward the Ladies’ Room.
“You’re disgusting,” he chuckled. “Don’t take too long.”
I gave him a sultry smile, then I brought my lips to his and gave him a feathery kiss. It still felt strange to kiss him – especially since I had only done it a couple of times, and one of them was while I was drunk – but I would be lying if I said I didn’t enjoy our playful little pecks.
As he turned to join the other boys, I faced the other way and hurried to the bathroom. I didn’t really need to go, but the endless interviews with the same monotonous questions were beginning to bore me. I guessed this interview would take around ten minutes, so after walking into the small Ladies Room, I set my purse down on one of the sinks and pulled out my lip gloss.
So far, this movie premiere had been painfully slow. When we first arrived here at five PM, there hadn’t been many fans around, so we could walk from the black van to the cinema without being mobbed. After the boys did a live interview for the local news, though, the size of the crowd inside and around the building had grown dramatically. Now, two hours later, the only things that stopped us from being crushed by excited fans were a long rope barricade that ran around the lobby and several burly security guards.
Only a couple of minutes had passed since I entered the bathroom, and I had already done every possible adjustment to my hair and make up. After letting out a sigh, I picked up my purse and headed out of the room. As soon as I stepped back into the lobby, the ear piercing screams made me jump in surprise, and I had to fight back the urge to run back into the quiet bathroom.
“Cassie! Over here!” Someone called from the crowd. I turned to look their way, but when several cameras flashed in front of me, I quickly forced out a smile.
“Hey, guys!” I called out. “Is everyone having fun?”
A chorus of loud screams rang in my ears, including “You look amazing!” and “Tell Harry to come talk to me!”
I let out a laugh and rested my hand on my hip. “Well, no one even answered my question! How about this: was anyone lucky enough to score tickets to the movie with us?”
This time, the reaction was even louder, and I chuckled as a few hands popped up and waved tickets in the air. When I noticed a ticket being yanked out of a young girl’s hand, though, I frowned and beckoned over one of the security guards. Once he was by my side, I walked over to the crowd and held up a finger to my lips, hoping the crazy fans would take my hint. It took a while, but a couple of girls finally noticed my gesture and started ordering the rest of the crowd to shut up.
