shakes her head and smiles softly at me. "Nope, not this time Mrs. Warren."
    Later, as I'm getting ready for bed, my phone starts ringing. No sooner have I picked it up that I hear Liam cursing in my ear and it takes me a second to process what he's saying.
    "Whoa...whoa, slow down. What?", I ask and lean back on my pillows.
    "What the hell happened today?", he asks angrily.
    I raise an eyebrow and glance at Krista. "What are you talking about?"
    "The beach!", He practically yells and I flinch.
    "How in the world do you know about that?", I ask confused.
    He laughs humorlessly. "Oh, I don't know. Just about all the gossip mags have pictures of you girls in your barely there bikinis on the beach."
    I feel my mouth drop open. "There was only like three guys there though..."
    "Doesn't matter, they must have shared them with their buddies."
    "Well, I can't very well control what those people do, Liam!"
    "No, but you can damn well control where you go, Katy."
    "Why are you getting mad at me?! I'm not going to hide for the rest of my life."
    I hear him take a deep breath and let it out. "I know, I know, ok? But you being out among all those vultures really put me in a bad place. I could tell in the pictures you were freaking out, Katy. And I hate that I wasn't there to at the very least shield you from them."
    I take a breath and smile softly. "I'm fine, ok? They surprised me, I figured they'd be camped out watching you guys film or whatever and we wouldn't be a blip on their radar....but I guess I'm a big blip now, huh?"
    "Yeah...and I want to have security with you 24-7."
    "Liam, really that's not necessary...."
    "Oh yes it is. Those people don't care about the person; they only care about the picture. And I'm not going to let my wife be injured, or worse, because they want to keep a camera your face and put you at risk."
    "This is one of those arguments that's just going to go round and round isn't it?", I ask dryly and pull my covers over my legs.
    "You bet, babe....expect for a security advisor to meet up with you, and if Scott has his way, one for Krista too tomorrow."
    Well that caught my attention. "Wait, back up a minute. Scott is hiring security for Krista?"
    He lets out a huff and continues, "He seems really taken with her, honestly. He usually avoids the girls that dote on him other than signing and autograph here and there, but Krista really talked to him. About normal things, not interview questions."
    "Hmm", I hum softly and sneak a peek over at Krista's sleeping form. "I'm sure she'll be ecstatic to hear this turn of events in the morning. Except for the security detail being attached part anyway."
    "Yeah well, we want you girls protected and safe. That's all there is to it."
    I sigh and snuggle down into my blankets and yawn, "Yeah, ok....I'll learn to ignore them, I guess."
    I can almost hear him smile. "Good girl....goodnight baby."
    "Good night, Liam.”
     
    Chapter 7
    The following morning before the alarm even went off for class, Krista and I were rudely awoken by a pounding on our door.
    I hear Krista grumble and I try throwing a pillow over my head to block out the noise.
    "Mrs. Warren, Ms. Quinn...we're with Raden Security on behalf of Mr. Warren and Mr. Adams.", a deep voice says through the door and I frown.
    "Oh, right, the security thing. Umm, just one minute, please!", I pop up and nudge Krista awake. "Ok so long story short, Liam hired security for me, and Scott has hired security for you because apparently he really liked you after your little chat, so we have about five minutes to get up and dressed and let those guys in before they call and tell the guys we're being uncooperative", I smile softly at her confused expression and start grabbing for my jeans and t-shirt and see Krista slowly do to the same.
     
    "Ok, I'm kind of lost, but I'm just gonna play along for now, k?" , Krista says tiredly as she goes over and opens the door.
    Two heavily muscled men walk in and nod politely at the  both of
