Abbie looked around the apartment that would be her home for the next year. She buried her face in the fragrant bouquet of flowers that decorated the kitchen table. She smiled when she read the card
Abbie,
Welcome to the Backstreet Family
Kevin, Nick, AJ, Howie and Brian
She looked at the clock on the wall. "I have a couple of hours before I am due to meet the guys." Abbie slipped out of her sundress and started to unpack her belongings.
"SHOT THROUGH THE HEART
AND YOU'RE TOO BLAME
BABY YOU GIVE LOVE A BAD NAME"
Kevin walked up the stairs and smiled when he heard the loud strains of Bon Jovi blaring from Abbie's apartment. He knocked on the door and waited patiently. He knocked louder, trying to be heard over the blaring mucic. He tried the door and found it unlocked. He knocked again and when noone answered he walked into the apartment. "Hello..Abigail..It's Kevin Richardson, I am supposed to be picking you up" Kevin heard loud singing and hammering as he walked down the hallway. He stopped when he saw a stunning brunette hammering a nail into the wall, dressed only in a black sports bra and black cotton bikini panties. Her long curls hung down the middle of her back and she was on her tiptoes. She was singing at the top of her lungs, unaware that she was giving a free show.
Kevin cleared his throat and turned his back. "Umm Abigail..I am supposed to be picking you up for the dinner meeting. I am Kevin Richardson"
Abbie screamed and ran to get dressed. She emerged with her hair tousled and the sundress haphazardly tied. "I am sorry, I guess I got forgot that you would be picking me up, you frightened me" Abbie held out her hand to Kevin "I am Abigail, Abbie" she smiled brightly.
"Hi Abbie, I would be lying if I didn't say that I was honored to meet you. I have read your internet column faithfully every week for more than a year"
"You are so kind. I am sorry about the mess, unpacking is not my favourite thing to do. I am sorry that I do not have anything to offer you but I have yet to go shopping, I have so much to doa nd so little time." Abbie looked at her watch "Wow I really lost track of time, do I have time to take a shower?"
"I have some errands to run, why don't you jump in the shower and I will come back in about 45 minutes. Will that give you enough time?" Kevin suggested.
"Good lord I am not getting a face lift, give me 20 minutes and I will be ready" Abbie teased.
" A low maintenance woman, now that I can handle" Kevin laughed and left.

Kevin wheeled the grocery cart towards the cashier. He had filled the cart with fresh fruit and vegetables, every kind of juice imaginable and fresh pasta. He stopped on the way home to get french pastries.
He knocked on her apartment door and smiled when she answered the door in a short beige linen skirt and linen sleeveless shirt. Her long hair hung in curls and her open toed sling backs showed off her painted toe nails. "You look fabulous..I bought you some groceries to tide you over. I know how busy you are going to be"
"A few....to tide me over...Oh my god Kevin this will last me a month" Abbie looked at the bags that he had placed on her kitchen table.
"I didn't know what you ate so I took a little of everything" Kevin blushed.
"Well for future reference I am a vegetarian" Abbie smiled "So what should I expect tonight?"
"Well you are going to meet the rest of the fellas, we will go over what ideas we have and then after maybe we can show you around Orlando" Kevin opened the door for her and helped her lock up. "You are shaking" he said as his hand touched hers.
"I am just really nervous about meeting everyone and starting this new job" Abbie confessed.
"Ah come on now..The guys will love you and you will love your job. Just
wait till you get to tour with us, now that you should be scared about"
Kevin teased her and help open the jeep door for her. He started the jeep
and smiled "besides you have already made your first friend and met your
number one fan"
