"HEY! You're…ohmigawd! You're Alesha, Nick Carter's girlfriend!" a blonde girl exclaimed as Alesha stepped off the elevator.
"Umm…yeah," Alesha said, pushing a lock of hair behind her ear.
"This is so cool," the girl said. "I'm sure you are in a hurry, but I've got a picture of you that I was wondering if you'd sign," she said digging in her bag and pulling out a couple of photos.
Alesha laughed. "I'm not in a hurry. Just came down for a soda."
She smiled as the girl handed her the picture. "Oh my GOD!" Alesha laughed looking it. "That is too funny. When did you take this?" It was a picture of Alesha cuddling her stuffed Spiderman and Venom.
The girl grinned. "I was vacationing in Orlando a couple of months ago. It was at Universal Studios. I have a couple of Nick, too," she said pulling those out.
"Too funny," Alesha said shaking her head.
"Terra, come on. We gotta - oh my gawd," a brunette said as she stopped dead in her tracks. "You're…did she sign it?"
"Well, she was looking at them when you walked up," Terra said rolling her eyes at her friend.
"Well, just making sure she didn't bite your head off like a certain OTHER "Carter-girlfriend"."
"Hmm," Alesha said looking back and forth between the girls. "Do you think I could borrow these for a few minutes?" she asked. "I'm gonna scan these into my computer and use them on the Boys' web page if you don't mind."
"Sure," the girl named Terra said.
"Cool, come on upstairs with me. It'll only take a minute," Alesha said pushing the up button.
"Is…Nick…" the brunette stuttered.
Alesha laughed. "No, he's already at the Arena," she answered as they followed her on the elevator.
"Oh," the girls said in unison.
"But, if ya'll want…" Alesha said grinning slyly. "How old are you?"
"I'm 22 and Kim's 21," Terra said quickly.
"Cool," Alesha said as they got off the elevator and walked to the room. She opened the door and they went inside. "Don't mind the mess. Yes, it's true. Nick is a pig," she grinned flipping on her portable scanner and laptop.
"Ohmigawd," Kim said in awe. "I am standing in Nick Carter's hotel room."
"Hello," Terra said waving a hand in front of her friend's face. "Aren't you in love with Howie?"
Alesha laughed. "Happens to the best of us. Poor D," she said scanning in the first picture.
"Hey Leshers," Howie said peeking his head in the door.
"Speak of the devil," Alesha mumbled to the girls, grinning at Kim's shocked expression. "Lost much? Why aren't you at the Arena?"
"I umm…needed to talk to you. I see you have company. I'll talk to you later," he mumbled. Smiling at the girls, he left.
Alesha shook her head. "He's a goof," she said laughing. "So, tell me what names you use on the computer." Seeing their confused looks she said, "I'm going to put your names on these pics so no one can steal them."
"Oh," Terra grinned. "Well, I use N2Kaos."
"And I use D~sIre," Kim said.
"Cool names," Alesha said applying the copyrights to the pictures.
"So…we know that Howie's your favorite," she smiled at Kim. "Who's yours?" she asked Terra.
Terra blushed. "Nick," she mumbled.
Alesha grinned. "Two of the best. Ya'll got good taste."
"You're…you're not mad?" Kim asked, eyes wide.
"Mad?" Alesha asked confused. "Why would I be mad?"
"Well, because…because she just said she liked Nick," Kim pointed at Terra.
"Oh. Why would I be mad about that?" Alesha smiled. Turning off the computer and the scanner, she looked at the girls. "Let me tell you what I told Nick when we first started dating. That…THING up on stage…ya know, the blonde freak that thinks he's sexy when he dances," she grinned. "That is Nick Carter, Backstreet Boy. He belongs to all those adoring fans. He belongs to all those poor souls out there that for some odd reason thinks he's God's gift to this world." The girls laughed. "To be perfectly honest with ya'll, I'm a Howie fan when it comes to the Backstreet Boys," she grinned. "So, no. I'm not mad at you."
Kim looked at Terra. "Oh my god. She is so cool," she said.
Terra grinned. "Yes, yes she is."
"Do ya'll have tickets for the show tonite?" Alesha asked looking at the clock.
Kim shook her head. "We didn't find out about them until it was too late."
"Cool," Alesha grinned. "Hold on just a sec." She picked up the phone and dialed a number. "Hey Dek. >pause< It's Lesha. >pausepausepause< Yes, they should all be there now. >pause< I'm not their mother. >pausepause< Anyways. I need two passes. >pause< Yeah. >pausepause< Marson? >pause< In back? >pause< Coolieos. Muwahs. You're a darling. >pausepause< Yeahyeahyeah. Tell Nick that. >pausepause< Bye," she said hanging up. Looking at the girls she smiled. "Okie, come on. Gotta go pick up Lori, Becca, Leighanne, and Carrie I think. Then we're off to the show."
"You mean…" terra looked at Kim.
"We're gonna…" Kim looked at Terra.
Alesha laughed. "Yeah, and if you want, you can stay for the after party."
