"There you are!" Jason exclaimed. "Uh, Shane? What are you doing?" Mitchie and Shane were still standing inches apart and his hand still cupped her face.

"Uh, uh," Shane stammered. "Um, Mitchie says she wasn't feeling 100% so I'm checking to see if she has a fever." He looked over to Mitchie and quickly replaced his arm to his side. "You seem to be fine."

"Thank you doctor." She replied with a giggle.

"Are you sure you're feeling alright? We don't have to go to dinner. We could stay here. All I have to do is call off some reservations…" Nate pulled out his phone and started dialing.

"No! No, it's fine. I was just feeling a little motion sickness." She stated quickly. "I'm fine now. I just think there's something wrong with that elevator." She muttered.

"Okay, if you are sure. I just don't want you catching something right before the New Year's Party. But I think our ride is waiting outside." Nate declared.

The four of them walked out of the double doors of the hotel to reveal the bitter edge of the New York City air that caused Mitchie zip up her jacket wishing she had worn her other coat even if it did make her look like a yeti. She looked up to see a light layer of snow fall to the street in front of her where a jet black limousine fit for ten awaited them. As they settled into their seats Mitchie pulled her Blackberry out of her pocket as the car headed to their destination. As it came to life she saw she had quite a few messages sent to her.

MOM: Hi Honey! I hope your flight was okay. Call me sometime. Love you, Mom.

Caitlyn: How's dinner? I want to hear all the juicy details later ;)

As she replied to her texts and sent updates to some of her friends back home or ignored unwanted messages she received one that read;

UNKNOWN NUMBER: I saw that. You're NOT gonna get away with it.

MITCHIE: Hey, who is this? And saw what?

This spooked Mitchie especially as she didn't receive a text back. Probably wrong number she thought. She didn't let it consume her because she had done nothing worth hiding lately and she also didn't want it to wreck her vacation. New Year's Eve in NYC? She could already tell it was going to be awesome and even better once Kaitlin joined them. She pushed the text to the back but not out of her mind. She looked up and put her phone back in her pocket for the night. They all exited the car out into the night at one of New York's finest restaurant. She took a deep breath, put a smile on her face knowing she would have the time of her life, creepy text or not.
