Amy Senteri smiled into the camera from the large stairs leading up to Lowe Library. "At the center of the Columbia University Campus today, more than 100 people, mostly students, staged a Flash Mob Freeze. Unlike the earlier, highly choreographed Flash Mob events by The Great Jericho Taylor at Grand Central Station and the Port Authority, this Mob simply froze in place for a little over one minute." As she spoke, her smiling face was replaced with grainy footage of dozens of statuesque people standing on the same concrete stairs she’d been broadcasting from.

"I have here John Green, a graduate student. John participated in this morning's Flash Mob Freeze. John, why did you take part in this event?"

John smiled into the camera, "A friend asked if I'd like to take part and I did."

"Was there a meaning to today's event? Or, was it just a copycat of the other Mobs we've seen in New York?"

"I don't know that you could call this a copycat event. Our Flash Mob wasn't choreographed like Mr. Taylor's events. No, we just all arrived at the indicated location, which we didn't know about until we got a text message fifteen minutes before 11am. Someone blew a whistle and we all froze, wherever we were. Simple. Fun."

"It seems Jericho Taylor's Flash Mob idea has gone to a new level, a new style. So, keep your eyes open. The next Flash Mob might be next to you. Back to you Sam."

Jericho turned off the little television in the kitchen. "Good for the kids," he said to no one. He thought it was interesting that he now was being credited for the first two Flash Mobs by name. Publicity is always good, he thought. I'll have to be incredibly secretive so that there aren't any leaks before the next one.

Jericho poured himself another cup of coffee, enjoying the quiet of his home. The boy was off at a cleanup dance rehearsal. Jericho liked having Billy there. He liked looking at a handsome man whenever he wanted. He also liked the boy's energy. But, it was nice to have a few quiet moments alone in his home. He lived alone and stayed out of long-term relationships because he liked his space. Yet, here he was, living with a man. It had been nearly two months since he invited the boy to move in. Billy certainly had the money to find his own place by now, especially with the increased salary that the star role brought. Yet, every time the kid brought up looking for a place or moving out, one of them came up with an excuse for Billy to stay. Worst of all, they weren't even having sex, they weren't sharing a bed. They were only playing a sexual-tension game that surely wasn't satisfying to either one of them. And, yet, Jericho stood by his statement that he wouldn't let a romantic relationship begin between them until after the show opened. That date was drawing nearer and nearer with each passing preview.
