*Meanwhile…*

*Nicole’s POV*

As soon as we got into the rest stop building I set my plan into action.

“Oh, I don’t really need to go anymore,” I announced.

“What?!” the manager yelled at me.

I just shrugged like What-Are-You-Gonna-Do-About-It?

He groaned then headed toward the bathrooms with everybody else.

I waited outside the bathrooms until my target finally came out.

“Ah, Taemin, everybody is taking so long and I’m bored,” I complained, taking him by the arm. “Will you come look around in the gift shop with me?”

“Sure, noona,” he smiled at me.

He looked so innocent, but my plans didn’t care about innocent. Innocent was boring. I needed adventure and drama.

I took him by the hand and led him to the gift shop. We looked around at all the little trinkets and clothing items.

“Haha, don’t I look cool?” Taemin laughed, turning to look at me wearing the pair of yellow shutter shades he’d picked up.

“Totally,” I laughed. “What do you think of this bling?” I held out my hand which had a ring pop on each finger.

“That’s awesome!” Taemin shouted.

“Wanna get this stuff?”

“Really?” Taemin asked in surprise.

“Sure! I’ll buy,” I smiled, but my smile wasn’t for Taemin. I smiled because I noticed Carolyn watching from outside the store, an angry expression on her face. Everything was falling perfectly into place.

*Carolyn’s POV*

I watched as the two of them laughed and messed around together. As they approached the cash register, I almost died at what she did. She slipped her hand into one of his jean pockets.

I saw Taemin laugh at her action then pull away. I was glad he pulled away, but why was he laughing? What I saw next made my heart stop. As they walked away from the counter with their purchases, Taemin threw his arms around Nicole, giving her a huge hug.

I couldn’t take it anymore. I stomped out of the building and out to the van.

*Minho’s POV*

Rebecca was sitting on my lap facing me now. My hands were tangled up in her long curly hair. Somehow my tongue had found its way into and was playing with her top retainer. I wanted to keep going, but I knew we couldn’t; and plus, I would never do that to Rebecca; she was too innocent. I could tell she was a and I wanted her to stay that way. I respected girls like that. Still, I was enjoying this make-out session.

Suddenly a noise came from outside the van. Rebecca turned back into her seat just as the door opened and Carolyn came in. She said nothing. She didn’t even look at us, which was good because both our hair was a mess since we hadn’t had time to fix it. She just sat in her seat with her arms crossed.

I glanced over at Rebecca to see her chest rising and falling heavily. We were both panting as quietly as we could. Thankfully Carolyn put in her earphones. Muse came blasting the speakers so loud that it sounded like it was playing from the van’s radio.

“We don’t tell anyone about this, okay?” I directed, taking Rebecca’s hand.

“Why not?” she asked puzzled.

“I don’t want the manager kicking you out for disobeying. I can’t lose you.”

*Rebecca’s POV*

Minho, stop saying things like that. I feel bad enough using you to get over Onew. I just hope one day I can REALLY care about you as much as you care about me.

I felt like the worst person on the planet.
