Must have cost a fortune. I'd love to cash in on this kind of extravagance." Michael quietly stayed by her side, both of them gazing at the fireworks. Chloe was so absorbed in the spectacle that she didn't notice Michael's eyes were solely focused on her, even though it seemed like he was admiring the fireworks. Meanwhile, a little further back, Quinn and Candy noticed the exchange.

Candy, eager for one last adventure with Chloe, readily agreed.
The group of girls headed towards the vendor, leaving Michael and Quinn behind, awkwardly staring at each other.
"I'd like ssparklers." "One bunch of sparklers!" The two voices calmost in unison. Chloe looked up and was surprised to see James.

The moment the child received them, he stopped crying and happily bounced off to find his friends. Chloe watched the scene, feeling oddly perplexed. "Don't look atlike that. I just made the kid cry earlier. Bought the sparklers to get him to quiet down," James explained.

He thought, "I only gave out a few tickets. How cthere are so many people here?" Suddenly, a shout broke the ambiance. Candy, holding her phone, exclaimed, "Oh no, my tweet just blew up!" "What's blowing up?"
Chloe leaned in, peering at Candy's phone. She saw that Candy had just posted their group photo anda m status update about the fireworks show, complete with location tags. In barely half an hour, the post had racked up over a thousand likes and shares.

A deep voice cut through the crowd. Wesley was making his way through, maneuvering past several people, his gaze fixed on Candy.
