After spending Saturday at Universal Studios with Evan's family, my parents came home on Sunday and decided to have a dinner outing. They invited the Spaders as well, as a thank you for taking care of me during the weekend. Together we went out to this amazing Indian restaurant. The music and the ambiance were great and they played a very upbeat tune in Hindi and encouraged the…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

“Hermione! Wait!” I shouted while running behind Emma. “Hermione, will you please tell me what it is we are doing?” She stopped behind the corner of a wall and I saw six people standing together. The actors portraying Ron, Draco, Crabbe, and Goyle were the real ones, while two body doubles were wearing clothes similar to Emma and me.“That’s us,” I whispered in realization. “This is not normal.”Suddenly, Emma grabbed me and pushed me against the wall in an attempt to make sure no one saw…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

Now, they had been waiting for nearly half an hour and still hadn’t gotten a meeting with Troy Armitage.“Well?” he asked. “When can we see that boy?”Tobias raised an eyebrow. “You mean the same boy who made your life so difficult with one video that Comedy Central had to release an apology and promise never to air that middle segment of the episode…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

I’m not going anywhere.”“All night?” Taylor Swift asked hopefully.I laughed out loud at her audaciousness. “I wouldn’t mind, but unfortunately, my girlfriend would—and she’s standing right behind me.” I lowered my voice to a stage whisper, making sure everyone could hear.“What’s your name?” I asked.“Taylor Swift,”…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

Krissy stuck her head out of the line and immediately paled. It was too long.“We’re fucked,” Zoe moaned, echoing Krissy’s sentiment. “We’re in this only because of you, Krissy.”“Hey! I resent that!”“You should,” Zoe shot back. “I don’t ask for much, but when I call you near midnight and tell you to do something the next day, you do it. I mean, you go on vacation and ask your best friend to book an early Troy Armitage album, and she sleeps through the entire day.”Krissy sighed.…- 1.0 M • Ongoing
