"Yes�of course...I'm not backing out of this now. Lance, its my dream."
"I'm so glad you're taking this offer, you deserve it," Lance replied, lightly looking into her hazel eyes.
"Yeah, but I'm still going to be worried about Cass, I mean, what is she going to go without me to bitch at?" Mandie started to laugh lightly.
"Dunno, we'll find out soon enough," Lance hugged her tightly, cherishing the moment with her.
Mandie smiled up at Lance with happiness, "And they offered me a job for just tomorrow."
"Oh yah?" Lance said happily.
"Yah, for Gucci."
"That's so awesome hun," Lance kissed her lightly.
"Yeah, I'm really happy," Mandie replied after the kiss, "God, nothing could bust me out of the moment, not even Cass right now."
"By the way, where did Cass go?" Lance asked curiously.
"You know, I have no idea, but J went after her pretty fast," she smiled and walked to the door. Her and Lance intertwined their fingers and she opened the door.
"I wonder if they'll ever hook up," Lance said quietly as they walked out of the room.
"I'm guessing if Cass doesn't act like an ass and gets her act together, I think they will," Mandie replied, smiling up at Lance again, realizing they were meant to be together, "You believe in fate right?"
"Definitely, why?" he replied.
"What would've happened if we never met that day at Mickey D's?" Mandie said quietly.
"I'd be miserable like I was before... but I think that we were supposed to meet," Lance said looking into her eyes.
Mandie leaned forward, "Why is that?" she said into his ear.
"Because you're the one," Lance seductively whispered, kissing her neck lightly.
"How can you tell so soon?" Mandie asked, totally wrapped up in Lance's embrace as they were entering the lobby area.
"I just can, senses," Lance replied while kissing her. When they finally got to the middle of the lobby, all they saw was press�press... fans...press.
"Shit," Lance said quietly.
"Oh no," Mandie said to herself, "Lance what are we gonna do?"
"I don't know, run!" Lance yelled and they started to plow themselves through the crowd, pushing and shoving the press out of their way so they could get out of the hotel. They weren't in the mood to answer questions about the occurrences about last night. They finally got through, both of them slightly disheveled as they let out deep breaths and started to run down the sidewalks of Paris, determined to get away.
Mandie spotted an alley and pulled Lance into it. She tripped over a garbage can and Lance fell on top of her. They gazed deeply into each other's eyes but when they saw a camera flash the stood up and say that they were cornered, "L�L...L...Lance...what's going on?" Mandie said cuddling to Lance's side as they backed up press following them.
"I...I don't know," Lance muttered quietly as they tried to get away again, but found out they were trapped in the alleyway. Was there anyway to escape?
"Laissez-les seuls!" they heard a voice yell from behind them, "Venez m'obtiennent!" and the press and paparazzi immediately followed.
Mandie looked before the figure disappeared around the corner and she yelled, "CASS!"
She let go of Lance's hand and took off after her leaving Lance behind. She saw an alley and ran in to it and kept running. When she got to the end, she let a hand out and Cass ran into it. Mandie grabbed her hand and hid behind the large trash can, "What were you thinking, Cass?"
"I had to save you, I'm miserable," Cass said with a sullen look on her face.
"I don't know what's in your head, but you seriously need to get it screwed on straight," Mandie replied, rubbing Cass's head, trying to mess up her hair which was up in a ponytail.
"I was just trying to get my head out of the fog and it's not working," Cass replied, trying not to get emotional.
"Cass, hunny, what are you talking about?" she looked into Cass's watery eyes�Mandie looked over the trashcan, "They are gone... come on."
"Okay, but promise me something," Cass got up, brushing off her leather skirt that she was still in from TRL yesterday.
"What hun?" Mandie asked as they walked out of the alleyway.
"Leave me the fuck alone!" Cass yelled out, quickly running away from Mandie and leaving Mandie extremely confused.
