By now, the mall had closed for the day, but you and Tally Hall hadn't made it out in time. It was a chaotic mess now, with half freaking out and the other half being chaotic anyway.

Ross was having a panic attack while Andrew and you comforted him, Bora and Joe were stealing from the shops nearby and making a mess, and Rob and Zubin were discussing their 'master plan' to get out of here.

"What if we're stuck here forever? What if the police get called on us?! What if there's night guards here!?!" Ross cried, clinging to you as he quickly breathed and panted, Andrew rubbing his back.

"Wow, chill, Ross. We'll be fine," Joe scoffed, looking at Bora and rolling his eyes, causing the two of them to break out into laughter. "Have some of these."

Joe chucked a packet of expensive chocolate at Ross.

"Joe! This is illegal!" Andrew hissed at him, only causing Ross to cry harder at the mention of the word 'illegal'.

"Guys, guys, don't panic. Zubin and I have figured out how to get out." Rob interjected, holding his hands up as he walked over to the others.

"We're going to crawl through the vents." Zubin finished for Rob, standing beside him.

"What!?! I'm not doing that!" Joe gasped, dropping his jaw and frowning.

Before another distinct word could be spoken, the group broke out into an argument, the only people being detached from it being you, Andrew, and Ross, who was still nestled into you.

The group broke apart and went back to their previous activities, some members giving an eye roll or two at the others.
