"What are we doing here?" asked Naya, confused.
"Shhh..we're doing undercover, remember? We must stay in stealth mode." Heather whispered.
They were standing behind a pillar in a hotel in New York.
"There she is.." Heather whispered to herself.
Nicole was walking towards the restaurant.
"Let's follow her."
"Why?"
"Just follow me!"
Nicole sat at the table for lunch. Heather and Nicole are now sitting at another table near her.
"I'm hungry.." whined Naya.
"Shhh..I think she's waiting for someone, could it be the partner in crime?" Heather said.
"What partner in crime?"
"Shhhh..gosh you're too loud."
Naya rolled her eyes.
"She's like..across the room, it's impossible for her to hear anything."
"Shhh.."
Naya pouted. "I'm leaving."
"What? No! You can't let me do this by myself!"
"Shhh..you're too loud." teased Naya.
Heather scoffed.
"You said you want to do something exciting, isn't this exciting?"
"Following a woman? I feel like a lesbian stalker."
Heather chuckled.
"That woman is evil. I suspected that she's responsible on my sister's 'unfaithfulness' towards PillowCamzi."
"Huh?"
"We need a solid proof."
"Heather, there's someone with the evil woman."
Suddenly a man walked towards Nicole's table. Nicole hugged him before sat on her seat.
"The partner in crime." Heather said, excited.
"I don't think so."
Heather stared at her friend. Naya looked at the man seriously.
"I know him. That's L.A Reid, you know, The famous producer in music industry."
"L.A? Then, that's her uncle."
"That evil woman has famous relatives.."
"Let's try to hear their conversation."
Heather and Naya slowly switch their table to the one behind Nicole and her uncle.
"She knows you right? What if she noticed you?"
Heather smiled.
"That's why I'm wearing my undercover gears." she pointed to her jacket and her shades.
"That jacket too?"
"Yeah, I usually don't wear this kind of cheap design and color, so she'll never expect that it's me who's wearing it."
Naya stared at Heather, serious.
"What?"
"You're wearing MY jacket." Naya said.
Heather bit her lip as she's trying to escape Naya's killer gaze.
"I didn't mean..cheap..just that..
"We will bring them down if we have to." a man's voice said.
Heather and Naya paused.
"If they didn't come out with a public apology, I will take the Jauregui's down personally." L.A said, serious.
Nicole took a sip of her orange juice and put the glass down.
"You don't have to do that. I just want Lauren's public apology."
"But..she humiliated you in public."
"So? This is only between me and her. I mean no harm to the other Jaureguis, because they're always being nice to me."
L.A sighed. "Okay, but if they didn't release the public apology anytime soon, I'll take this matter into my own hands. Your father even plans to come here if he has to."

Marley let out a tired sigh as she walked out of the van and headed towards the company's building. She just got back from yet another photo shoot.
"Mar! Great news!" Sean waved from at least a meter away.
"Sean?"
Sean ran towards Marley and wrapped his arms around the girl before lifting her up.
"Hey! Hey! What are you doing?!" asked Marley, embarrassed.
The other staffs and models that walked by smiled at their little romantic scene.
"Put me down now!" She shouted, her face red.
Sean grinned before putting Marley back on the ground.
"Don't do that again!" Marley said, blushing.
"I have great news." Sean said, ignoring Marley's rant.
"Great news?"
Sean nodded excited.
"What is it?"
"Let's talk about it over dinner."
"Eh?"
"I'll pick you up at seven."

Zooey was sitting in a cinema. She's there for the premiere of Grant's new movie. As his 'girlfriend', she must show up.
She didn't know when, but when she opens her eyes, the movie just ended.
"Let's go." Grant said as he gently shook Zooey's arm.
Zooey smiled and nodded.
"Yeah, let's go."
They linked arms as they walked through the crowds. Cameras were flashing with every step they took. Ever since their relationship became public, their popularity has increased a lot. Their relationship suddenly became the hot topic among fans.
Zooey let out a loud sigh as they entered the car. Grant chuckled.
"Tired?"
Zooey gave a weak smile.
"You think?" She closes her eyes as the car begun to move.
"Wake up, Zee." said a voice.
Zooey opens her eyes slowly.
Grant was smiling in front of her.
"We're here."
Zooey looked outside the window, she's surprised. They're at a playground.
"Where are we?"
Grant smiled. The swing creaks as they swung back and forth. Zooey sip her canned coffee.
"Ahhh."
Grant chuckled. "Now you feel better?" he asked.
"Much better, thanks." Zooey replied, smiling.
"But my head feels a bit dizzy though.." she added, pouting.
Grant stood up and walked to Zooey. Zooey was surprised and looked at him. He reached out his right hand and touched Zooey's head slowly. He gently strokes her hair with his big hand. Zooey froze.
"Let me ease your pain." He said gently.
He leaned down and plants his lips on Zooey's forehead. Zooey was too surprised to react. He kissed her forehead for a few seconds before finally pulled away.
Grant kneeled down in front of Zooey so that his eyes were at Zooey's level. Zooey gulped, she has a bad feeling about where this is going.
"Zee, I have something to say." he said sweetly.
"During this whole time, I'm really happy being your boyfriend. You're like the best girlfriend anyone could ever had. For some reason, I never felt happier with anyone else but you."
Zooey stared at him, nervous.
"And I don't ever want it to end." He added.
Zooey looked away.
"Can I..be your boyfriend? Real boyfriend." he said, nervous.
Silence falls between them.
"I..I promise that I'll try my best to be your perfect man."

Marley and Sean were sitting in a restaurant for dinner.
"So, what did you want to talk to me about?" Marley asked.
Sean smiled as he stared at Marley.
"You and me, we're going to work together." He said.
"What do you mean?" asked Marley, confused.
"Penshoppe picked me for their male spokesperson, replacing Mario Casas and you as the female spokesperson."
"Eh?"
"You got the contract, Marley. You have once again beat Zooey." he added, smiling.
Marley stared at him, speechless.
"But..but.."
Sean reached his hand forward and held Marley's hand. Marley was surprised but she didn't pull her hand away.
"I have something for you." Sean said.
Marley gulped, worried.
Could it be?
Sean took out a box from his pocket and put it on the table.
"What is this?"
He grinned. "Take a look by yourself."
Marley picked up the box and stared at it.
"Open it." Sean said, excited.
Marley slowly opens the box. There's a ring in it.
"What is this all about, Sean?" asked Marley, worried.
Sean stared deeply into Marley's eyes.
"I hope we can be..more than just friends."
**
"I'm sorry." Zooey said slowly as Grant continues to stare at her.
"Hey..it's okay..you don't have to answer me right away..take your time.." he said.
"It won't make any difference."
Grant bit his lip, trying to gather his strength. "Let your heart decide your feelings."
Zooey shook her head. "I'm sorry, but I don't love you."
"I really like you, and I'm happy when I'm with you..but I don't love you." she added.
"How can you be so sure?"
Zooey put a hand on her chest.
"My heart, it only love one person. From back then until now and forever, it only beats for that person."
Grant looked down, broken hearted.
"I'm so sorry, Granty."
**
"I can't take this." said Marley, serious.
Sean stared at her, shocked. "W..why?"
"I just..can't."
Sean was too surprised, he's speechless.
"To me, you're always..my favourite boy companion." added Marley.
Silence fell between them. Suddenly, Marley stood up.
"I can't do this anymore." she said.
"Penshoppe contract belongs to Zooey. I'm letting it go."
Sean froze in his seat. He didn't expect any of this.
"I'm sorry, Sean."

"Let's go home.." Naya said as she tugged Heather's arm.
"Shhh.."
Heather and Naya were following Nicole almost all day. It's all a part of Heather's so called master plan. So, far they've followed her to the spa, shopping malls, restaurants and the studio.
It's already night and Naya is tired.
"I want to go home! Not in this dark alley."
"Just..wait for a little bit more. I could feel that we will find something soon." Heather said.
Naya grunts.
"I don't care!"
"Shhh!"
"Do you have the thing that I want?"
They both almost stopped breathing as they heard Nicole talked to someone.
"I want my money first." said a male voice.
Nicole scoffed.
"Here you go." she said as she handed a white envelope to the mysterious man.
Heather and Naya moved forward from their hiding place to take a peek at the mysterious man but failed to see anything.
"Here's your stuff." he said, handing a huge envelope to Nicole.
Nicole took the package and checked its contents.
"Nice." she said short.
"I'm glad I talked to you that night, Mr. Bartender." she added.
The man laughed.
"Call me Leo."
