disclaimer: disclaimed. dont sue me.
She ducked her head and slid on her huge D&G sunglasses and pushed through the thick crowd, all screaming her now famous name. Her coral colored wedges clacked on the pavement as she rushed to get to her car. Her signature pale blond hair was curled and hung loose around her narrow shoulders.
"Claire!! Claire!! Look over here!!"
"Lyons! Look this way!"
They never ended. Claire jumped into the back of her black Hummer and nodded at her driver. He nodded and the Hummer took off, leaving the stalkerazzi in the dust. Claire sighed and leaned back against the buttery leather seats. This whole be-a-movie-star thing was SO overated. The stalkerazzi never left you alone, people used you all the time, and your private life was no longer private.
Her red Rumor vibrated suddenly and Claire smiled at who was calling.
"Heyy Cam." she purred into the phone, happy to hear from him.
"Hey babe, wanna meet somewhere quiet?" Claire smiled as his deep rumbling vioce came through the phone.
"Sure, where?" she questioned, wondering what her ahh-mazing boyfriend could possibly be planning.
"Just put Alex on the phone." shrugging, Claire handed her driver the phone.
Claire slumped back against her seat and wondered where they were going. Maybe a new resort somewhere? Or a spa... Nah, Cam doesn't do spas.
After about 2 minutes, Alex handed Claire's phone back to her. Then she tried to pry the information out of him by asking the man about 50 questions. When he wouldn't give her anything other than a quick "I think that you will like it." Claire gave up. Then she asked him how long until they reached Destination Unknown.
"About twenty minutes." came the simple reply.
Mumbling something about ah-nnoying drivers, Claire took a picture of her outfit and sent it to Massie, Dylan, Alicia and Kristen and asked them to rate her and if it was date worthy.
She was wearing a coral and ivory abstract-print halter-top dress by Chloe and it just grazed her knees. She had on coral colored wooden bangles and ivory hoops.
Immediately her phone vibrated, alerting her that she texts. Claire opened them and they said:
Massie: luv it! 9.5!! :) 2 ka-ute! giv me detes l8r k? kisses!
Alicia: ahdorable! hes gonna luv it! 9.4!!
Dylan: luv it! the ivory dress makes ur tan POP! :) 9.5! xoxo!
Kristen: very cute! 5-way us l8r w/detes!! 9.5!!
Her phone vibrated again but this time she had a call. From Conner Foley. OMG.
"Hello?"
"Claire! how are you? Meet me in front of the Ivy in 10? K?"
With that, the movie star hung up. Confused, Claire told Alex to go to the Ivy really quick. 10 minutes later, Claire arrived at the Ivy and stepped out of her Hummer. She looked around and saw Conner waiting for her on the corner. She gave a little wiggle of her fingers to let him know that she had seen him and slammed the door. Then she walked over to her gorgeous ex. He was in torn jeans, a Ralph Lauren polo and a black baseball cap.
"C! How are you? You look amazing."
In a daze at how nice Conner was being, Claire replied in short, one syllable answers. Then she mentally slapped herself for acting all star-struck and moony around him. She straightened up and looked Conner in his gorgeous eyes.
"What do you want Foley?"
Conner looked genuinely hurt. Then he sighed and motioned for Claire to come closer. She rolled her eyes but leaned in towards him. Before Claire knew what happened, Conner's mouth was on hers and his hands were in her hair and pulling her closer to him. For a millisecond, Claire kissed him back as memories of 7th grade came rushing back and in her book, Conner was making a bigger comeback then Cadillac in the kissing department. Then she remembered Cam and pulled away quickly before any paparazzi could snap a photo. Too late.
"You jack ass!! Who the hell do you think you are? You can NAWT just go around kissing your exes!!" Claire hissed as she wiped her mouth with her wrist. Then, as Conner tried to come up with a response, she slapped him across his Abercrombie model face. Hard. There. That would show the arrogant bastard.
"Don't you ever, ever call me again. If you do, you will be ruined."
With that, Claire turned on the heel of her Rene Caovilla wedges and stomped over to her Hummer, shaking. She was almost blinded by the flashes of the cameras and put on her sunglasses. Then she tore open the door, leaped inside and the Hummer took off, almost killing a couple of paparazzi. Then, when the divider between the front seat and backseat was safely up, Claire dissolved into tears and cried.

The whole entire date, Kristen's mind was realing. How could Griffen still work here? Doesn't he have a life or something?? Where does he go to school? Why wo-
"Kris? What do you think?"
Kristen was snapped out of her daze and looked up at Blaine in surprise.
"Hmm? What did you say babe?"
Blaine looked at her and smiled patiently, like he was dealing with a preschooler.
"Cheese, pepporoni, or veggie?"
"Ummm, how about veggie?Is that okay with you?" She said, biting her lip in fake indescion and unceratinty.
"Veggie it is then." Blaine turned to Griffen, who stood with a pen hovering over his pad of paper. He nodded and looked directly at Kristen as he waited for her drink order.
"Diet Coke please." Kristen glanced up quickly and saw that Griffen was staring right at her.
"I'll take a Coke." Blaine cleared his throat and glanced between the two. Kristen snapped her gaze away, her thoughts even more jumbled then before.
Griffen walked away and Kristen tried to concentrate on Blaine, but kept on thinking back to 7th grade, when Griffen first got to Westchester. She had scoped him out and tried to impress him by acting all weird and not-Kristen-y and it freaked him out. She hadn't seen him since the party, but she could still see why any girl would go after him.
She snapped back into reality just in time to hear what Blaine had to say.
"...So there is this pool party at my friend's house tomorrow night, I thought that it would be fun if we went together. What do ya say?"
A pool party would be fun...sure! Annd it would get her mind off of Griffen.
"Sure... What time?"
"I'll pick you up at about 6. 'K?"
Kristen nodded and saw their pizza coming. She quickly pushed her short hair out of her face and licked her lips in fake hunger. Blaine laughed and mimicked her, but adding gorilla sounds. Kristen laughed hard and clutched her stomach as the pizza was set down on the table. She wiped her eyes, careful not to smear her make up and nodded her thanks as a plate appeared in front of her.
She reached over to the pizza and grabbed a big, gooey slice, heaped with veggies. She raised it in mock salute to Blaine and then dug in. It was good.
The cheese was really gooey so every time Kristen took a bite, the cheese would stretch from her mouth to the pizza slice. It frustrated her like mad and Blaine chuckled every time she took a bite. She sent him a glance over the table and he just shook his head asnd smiled.
"Lemme help you with that baby."
He reached across the table and took a bite of her pizza. There was a string of cheese that went from her mouth...to his. He saw it too and slowly inched his way down, biting the cheese as he went. Kristen smiled and inched her mouth up to his. As their mouths met, Kristen thought, "This is the most perfect first date kiss ever."
