Chapter 24

Evalina's P.O.V.

It had been a day since the bus incident. Nothing interesting had happened. I scrolled through the E on Broadway instagram when I saw a tag that caught my interest. "I think I've solved it. E is going to a place with Race. She means Racetrack from Newsies. Next livestream the Newsies account is having we should ask them for the clue!" I smiled. I heard the curtain call playing, I guess this must be the end of rehearsals. These people are always perfecting their technique, I'm proud of them. 

I liked it and commented. "How smart you are and the next Newsies livestream is two days from now on the twenty second. That's a Thursday ;)" After I finished I began taking pictures of some of the boys joking around. I then went and took a picture of Vincent and and Anthony. "So kiddos, how are you guys?" I asked. " I'm good. " Anthony said. "Yeah, me too. Can I do your hair since their going to run carrying the banner and Anthony's going on for the last song?" Vince asked. "Sure." I said. "Bye, E." Anthony said as he gave me a side hug then ran to his place.

Vincent began working on her hair mainly just combing through it. "So, E. I heard you were going on a date with Ben." I laughed. " who'd you hear that from? " I asked while chuckling. "I can't tell you, but is it true?" He pushed .

3rd Person P.O.V.

Evalina smiled though deep down a little part of her in which she wouldn't acknowledge it or at least she didn't know it existed. "Its not true, Vince. Whoever said so just be been joking or something. Besides there's a guy who I've got my eye on." She said smiling while saying the last part.

"Really?!?!?!" He asked surprised. "Mhm and if your parent allows it you can meet them tonight." She said while winking. "Well of course I'd love to meet the guy who stole or is stealing your heart." Vincent said.  Evalina laughed smiling brightly. "Calm down, kiddo. Swing by my place tonight if it's alright won't your parent as I said before at around." She paused to check the time recalling that they should be here by six. " seven should be good. I'm sure you'll love him. " Evalina said while laughing.

Evalina saw Jeff H. and Jeff C. looking for her. "We'll I got to go, see you later." She said while smiling and waving. "See ya later, kiddo." Vincent said. "You know I'm older than you, right?" She shouted from afar. He nodded his head while giggling.

Once Evalina was out of his view he scurried over to Josh, Ben, Sky, DMC (DeMarius), and Jordan. "Alright, Josh. I asked her and she said it wasn't a date. I don't know why you or you two" he said gesturing to Josh and Ben "didn't ask her yourselves. Oh! and one last thing she said, if I remember correctly there's a guy who she has her eye on I think that means a guy she likes. Plus I get to meet him at seven. I wonder if he's tall." Vincent said. 

"Wait wait wait, hold up. She likes someone?" Josh asked surprised. Ben face was just as shocked but slightly downhearted. "Well, I think so. You guys should've asked then you could meet him." Vince said. "Do you know what he looks like or anything?" Josh asked. "Nope, but I can tell you after I meet him plus you could probably just go and visit Evalina and meet him yourselves." Vince said. That's when he saw his, dad beckoning him over. "Well, I got to go. See you guys later." A chorus of 'bye Vince's echoed as he walked away. 

"See. I told you." Ben said flopping on the floor. "Well, you never know. The guy could be a jerk." Josh said. "Keep high hopes. Plus we're gonna meet them soon because we're gonna go visit Evalina at 7:05." Josh said smiling. "But I don't want to meet them." Ben said pouting. "Well if you don't meet them you won't know who your competition is." Josh said mocking Ben. As they continued bickering Jeff H. and Evalina came walking over to them. Evalina was laughing at Jeff who was poking at her sides tickling her. 

"I've finally found your week spot. HA!" Jeff H. said victoriously. "Yeah, if it-it w-w-weren't fo-f-for the h-h-help of my u-uncle." She said while laughing trying to run from Jeff but he continued poking at her sides. Evalina's face was flushed as when Jeff stopped. She checked the time. "Hmm, five o'clock. I better go get lunch I mean dinner then get my room ready." She mumbled to herself. The others overheard. "Not to be intrusive, but ,babe, why do you have to get your room ready?" Jeff inquired.                                 

"Babe?" Evalina asked confused. "Yes because you are my child." Jeff said pulling her into a hug and putting his chin on her head. "O...kay then. Well I have to get my room ready because my good friend is coming by with a surprise and I'm pretty sure that I have a bunch of stuff scattered around the room." Evalina said thoughtfully. "Well I'm off to grab an early lunch. I'll see you guys around." She began walking away with her multiple bags. 

"I wonder who this guy friend is." Josh said thinking. "Guy friend! I thought it was just a friend?" Jeff H. asked surprised. "According to Vincent he said it was a guy she liked." Josh replied. "Whaat?" Jeff asked in a weird voice. "What if this guy is a jerk?!?!" Jeff continued. "I must meet him. Evalina wait up! I'm coming too. Tell me about this friend that's coming" Jeff yelled while grabbing DeMarius' wrist and dragging him along. "Boy, what are you doing?" DeMarius asked. "We're going to figure out who Evalina likes and who this guy friend she's bringing here is." Jeff exclaimed as he dragged him along. 

"Well that was interesting." Jordan said as he walked away. Jeff and DeMarius did end up catching up with Evalina. "Hey, guys. I was just headed to Subway. I'm guessing you guys are too or the Panera next door. It's pretty early though." "Yeah we wanted to join you for lunch." Jeff replied. "Cool. So how are you two?" Evalina asked. "I'm excited." Jeff said. "Me too, plus tomorrow's our day off." DeMarius replied. 

"Yeah, I always enjoy watching you guys talk with the fans. Especially the ones who get so excited it's really sweet. I also can't wait until the prom-posals come it's always so adorable." Evalina said as they entered the shop. She went in line first and ordered. When she went up the the cash register she said she'd pay for the other two. Just as the other two grabbed their food getting ready to pay when she payed for them. "I'm not gonna complain but you don't have to pay for us." DeMarius said. "Yeah it would've been fine but thanks." Jeff said as they all sat down. "No it's fine. I mean it's only fair since you guys have joined me for dinner." She replied. 

"So tell us about your friend that's coming." Jeff said. "Oh well, they're really nice and I've known them for about two years. But I'm not sure if they're coming down with a cold because te last time we called it sounded like it. They're super sweet though and their taller than me but I'm pretty sure everyone is." She replied with a laugh. Jeff and DeMarius continued talking with Evalina for the continuation of their dinner. They learned a little bit about Evalina's friend and she learned more about them. 

As Evalina finished up with dining with them she paused. "You guys can come over if you want to meet them. It has to be at seven. Vince will be there too I got a text earlier from his parent that he could come but he won't be there for long probably only ten minutes." She replied thoughtfully. "Oh, we'd love to." Jeff replied. "Yeah, I'd like to meet the friend you speak so highly of." DeMarius said. "Alright then. See you guys in a few."  Evalina said as she made her way to her hotel room. This time Stephanie was with someone else and since there was an odd number of girls she got her own room this time. 

Meanwhile with Jeff H. and Demarius

"Tell us everything she told you." Josh replied. "Well, he's taller than her. He had blue eyes, blonde hair, freckled. They're older than her. That's all we got for physical and we're gonna meet them at seven with Vince." Jeff said. "Ya know, this guy sounds like she was describing Ben." DeMarius observed. "True. Well, we'll just have to see for ourselves."

One hour and fifteen minutes later (it's seven o'clock)

"Awww, I can't believe Nat is sick." Evalina said sadly. "It's fine, she recovers quickly." Sean said. "Well that explains why you're here instead of her." That's when they heard a knock on the door. "Oh that must be Vince. He seemed eager to meet Natalie. Too bad, well there's always you." Evalina teased. Sean pouted. She got the door. "Hey, Vince. Come one in I got someone I want you to meet." She said. Right before she closed the door DeMarius and Jeff came down. "Hey guys, I got someone I want you to meet." She said. 

They all came in. Jeff and DeMarius were highly confused when they looked at Sean and Vincent was scowling at him. That's right, if you hadn't guessed Vince knew about Ben's crush. Jeff and DeMarius just kept looking at the boy then back at Evalina. He was, in fact, taller than her but he had chestnut hair and bright emerald eyes. "Nice to meet you I'm Sean." He said to the others. "I'm Vincent." "I'm DeMarius." "And I'm Jeff." They said introducing themselves. 

Jeff, being utterly confused couldn't help himself but turn and question Evalina. "E, I'm so confused. No offense to you" he said gesturing to Sean" or anything but I thought you said your friend was blonde, had blue eyes, and a lot of freckles." Evalina chuckled. "Actually, I did say that. My friend Natalie was supposed to be coming here tonight but she got sick, this is her boyfriend. A good friend of mine since grade school." She replied. This shocked DeMarius and Jeff. Vincent walked up to her and whispered not so quietly into her ear "If this is the guy you like, then why is he dating someone else?" Vince asked just as confused. 

Evalina laughed her hair bouncing as she did. "Vince I don't think you understand. My friend Natalie was originally coming, not this twat. I don't like him. I think the guy you're talking about that I  said I had my eye on is right here." She said as she turned to Sean gesturing to him to grab something out of a plastic container. "Vince I want you to meet Loki. He's my pet chameleon." She giggled as the cute chameleon crawled onto her arm. (a/n: Bet you guys didn't see that one coming *smirks proudly* and if you did then you're a good detective ) 

"Awww, he's so cute." Vince said as the vibrantly colored Chameleon was passed for him to hold. 

(Pictures of Loki ^^)

"Yup, I recently got him and decided to bring him on tour with me because; a, he would not have been safe with my family, b, he wouldn't of been safe with Ana, that girl kills her pet fishes faster than light travels, and c, I figured he could be our tour pet." Evalina replied. "Hence, Sean being here to bring him to me. Were you under the impression that I was bringing my nonexistent boyfriend or something?" Evalina asked. "No, no, of course no-" "Yes." Vince replied cutting off Jeff. Everyone in the room started laughing. "I'll get that. Vince be careful with Loki, he's still very tiny. DeMarius, Jeff, I don't know if you guys wanna touch him but feel free to." She said flashing her pearly white teeth. 

Evalina walked over to the door and opened it. She saw Sky, Ben, and Josh. "Hey, guys." "Hey, E. We think you left this SD card back at rehearsals. Plus we wanted to meet your... friend." Sky said. "Haha, turns out she's not here. She got sick but her boyfriend's here. I've known him since grade school. You guys can meet him if you want." To say Ben and Josh were shocked was an understatement. It was then they realized this whole time the friend she had been talking about wasn't a guy but in fact a girl. 

"Sure. We'd love to." Josh replied. "Sounds fun." Ben replied. "Ditto." Sky said. Ah yes, Skylar Flaherty a man of few words.... not really, back to the story. "Oh yeah and I want you guys to meet my pet Loki. He's a baby chameleon. That's why my friend was coming over, her names Natalie, to bring it to me but her boyfriend had to instead. Sean I'd like you to meet three more of my friends Ben, Josh, and Sky. Three musketeers this is Sean and this..." She paused grabbing the itty bitty chameleon from Vincent's hand and the prodding fingers of Jeff and DMC.

"is Loki. It's actually quite funny," She said while carefully putting the chameleon into Ben's hand. "earlier I said to Vince there was only one guy I had my eye on and he thought it was the friend coming over but I was just joking around about having Loki coming. It was a huge misunderstanding. So when he came in he asked if Sean was the guy I liked." She said commentating thoughtfully while tapping her finger on her chin which Ben had found as a cute tendency she had done while she was thinking. 

After talking with the others for a while they eventually all left saying their good nights and goodbyes. Evalina sighed as she closed the door. She lent against the door post with a smile. "There is never a boring day with these boys." Evalina said while smiling to herself. She carefully put Loki back into his cage. "Goodnight Loki." She replied. She opened her laptop and sat on the bed turning off all of the lights in her room. That's when she felt her phone buzz.

With these ending texts she continued working until she fell asleep. Right before, though, she made sure to set an alarm for early in the morning in case if she didn't wake up just so she had enough time to get ready.
