Three weeks later in New York City...
"What magazine is this for?" I asked as we piled into the limo, all except Brian who had Leighanne in town,
"It's for Maxim magazine." Oh Maxim, at least there would be hot girls and cool people there. AJ climed in last with a magazine in his hand,
"Oh man, this chick is hot. Can't wait to see her tonight." Kevin looked over and laughed,
"Look Howie, it's Brehan. You get another chance to ask her out." AJ gawked,
"You know her D?" If he knew her he wouldn't consider standing next to her, let alone asking her out I thought but no one asked me so I'm keeping my mouth shut,
"I don't really know her. Kevin and I met her backstage at the fashion show out in LA." I never did hear how that went,
"So, was she cool with you guys?" Howie shrugged,
"Yeah, she was cool." Great, it was just me that brought out the bitch in her. He looked over at AJ and pointed at me,
"Nick met her too. They were at the same photo shoot." AJ frowned,
"What photo shoot? Not this one?" He turned the magazine around so I could see it,
"I don't know, I think it was for Maxim. Let me see the inside pictures and I can tell." AJ found her pictures and handed me the magazine, as if I couldn't do that myself. Maybe he was being nice but to me it came off as doing for me what I couldnt do for myself. I looked at the pictures and my breath caught in my throat as the poses she made while wet in the tub vividly returned to my mind,
"Yeah, these are it. I watched her do these wet pictures in the tub with the scarf." Howie moved over and sat next to Kevin and AJ as they examined her pictorial,
"Holy shit, she is hot as fuck." Howie shook his head,
"You were there for these pictures?" I nodded,
"Yeah, her manager tried to make us leave during her photoshoot. Some crap about her being shy or some stuff." Kevin laughed and shook his head,
"She doesn't look shy in these." I shook my head, not shy at all, more like a tease if you ask me. AJ groaned,
"Well, someone needs to introduce me. Hell, I'm single." Howie smiled,
"Not if I get to her first." I shook my head and rolled my eyes,
"She's a bitch, don't bother." I didn't really mean to say that, at least not aloud. I looked around and everyone was looking at me,
"Why do you say that? She seemed nice enough." I shrug at Howie and sighed,
"She just acts like her shit doesn't stink. And she's rude, she's one of those divas." They all looked around at each other wondering what to make of my statement. Howie stepped to the plate to ask the question,
"Really? Why do you say that?" Because its true,
"She was really rude at the photoshoot." Kevin shrugged,
"Maybe she was having a bad day. You've been known to be a little difficult at shoots yourself." I shook my head, no way was I going to allow him to compare me to her,
"No, she was bitchy at the Playboy mansion too. She was upset and I tried to see if she was ok and she got all pissy with me." They sat around not knowing what to think of what I said but AJ broke the ice,
"Well, whatever, I'd still do her. That mean streak probably makes her more wild in the sack." I hear what people say about me but AJ thinks more with his dick than I do and Howie is more a ladies man than me. Kevin nodded,
"Oh you can bet she's some kind of alley cat." I frowned and looked over at him, gross, I wanted to hurl right then and there,
"What? I'm married, I'm not dead." I rolled my eyes and shook my head, ever since I overhead him and his wife having sex I've been traumatized, it might as well have been my parents. Howie seemed to think differently than Kevin and AJ,
"No, I bet she's really normal, probably even a little shy. It's always the ones that pose like this and look like this that seem to be more hung up on sex and stuff." Frankly, I haven't given her possible sexual abilities any thought but I wouldn't mind slinging her around a few times and I don't mean sexually.
We stepped out of the limo and onto the red carpet for the obligatory pictures. We stood in front of the white wall with Maxim written all over it. There were displays of Brehan's pictures all down the red carpet. After stopping every five feet to pose for pictures we finally made it inside. The usual suspects were in attendance tonight: Tara Reid, JC Chesez, Carson Daly, Brian MacFayden, and the Hilton sisters. What in the hell did they do besides come out of the right birth canal to be famous? I followed behind AJ and Kevin as Howie made his way over to someone he knew. There were pictures of Brehan everywhere, she looked amazing, have to give her that. I can't help but smile when I saw one of the pictures,
"What are you smiling at? Guess, she's not so bad." I looked over at AJ then pointed at the picture of her bent over the bathtub,
"Nah, I just remember her doing that. I was there when she did it." He smiled and I shrugged as we kept moving, where the hell Kevin was leading us I had no clue.
Standing over here talking to a couple of the guys from O-Town I'm wondering how in the hell they got an invitation, don't mean to be rude but they are never at these things,
"Hey, we were partying with Willa the other night, she's a cool girl." I looked over at Trevor, think that was his name and it took me a second to remember that he was talking about Mandy.
"Oh Mandy, yeah, she's a nice girl." Like I really care, I wish her well and I have no hard feelings towards her but she is definitely the past, I hardly ever think about her. By the time we broke up I was already prepared for it to be over and done with because it had been in my head that I was going to end it for good. It was more of a surprise to her, it came out of left field and she wasn't ready for it to be over, we were Tom and Nicole before Tom and Nicole,
"So, how is the tour going for you guys?" I shrugged,
"The same, you know how it is. Different city, different hotel, same old thing." They nodded and smiled and the smile appeared on my own face when Kevin walked over,
"Hey, sorry to pull him away guys but business never ends. You know how it is." He pulled me away,
"Thanks, I was getting bored." He laughed,
"Yeah, you had that far away look in your eyes baby." I wanted a drink but he said since we were with AJ that meant no drinking, even if he wasn't around. Damn, I mean I don't mind supporting AJ and being sober, just as long as I didn't run into Brehan.
