The Girl in the Glass

Chapter 9

Howie and the guys were rehearsing when Emma walked into the arena and called Mail call. She handed Howie a UPS package and then handed him the rest of his mail. Howie smiled when he saw the return address showed Abbie's address. He walked over to the side of the stage and sat down. He ripped excitedly through the package and started laughing when he saw what was in it. He held the mouse ears and grinned when he saw that they were embroidered with Howie. He burst out into a loud laugh when he glanced at the pictures that were also included.

The first one showed Goofy and Abbie kissing, the second had Goofy on the ground with Abbie above him fanning him. The third one caused him to grin the widest. Pamela and the rest of the girls were trying to drag Abbie into the Small World ride's line and she was posed holding onto the pole for dear life. "What are those?" Howie looked up and saw Kevin standing above him with a curious look on his face.

"Abbie sent me pictures of her adventure in Disney World. Guess she figured I needed the laugh." Howie handed Kevin the pictures and smiled when Kevin laughed.

" I am glad that she is keeping busy with the girls from Jive..Denise says that Abbie is fitting in really well"

"I didn't think she would have a hard time, I mean she fit in with us right away" Howie said as he ran his fingers over the picture of Abbie that Kevin had handed to him

"D can I ask you something..are you and Abbie interested in each other, I mean it's not my business but I was curious" Kevin asked seriously.

"Me and Abbie...no we are just friends, besides we work together and the Firm would shit if they found out that employees were dating...Kevin I have only know her 2 weeks..that is hardly long enough to fall for her" Howie tried to convince himself of the words he was speaking.

"Just watching out for you D...that's all, now let's go we have to get ready for the fan conference."

~~**~~

Abbie booted up her computer and waited for the fan conference to start. It was being broadcasted on the net and that made her job a lot easier as she would not have to wait for the guys to tell her what happened. She smiled when she saw Nick walk in with his new shot hair. She had spent an hour convincing him that it looked alright when he came back from the barbers and called her upset.

"Do you guys wear boxers or briefs" one fan asked.

Abbie groaned and rhymed off the answers before the boys did.

"If you could bring back any person from the dead for one day who would it be and what would you do? Abbie smiled...finally a good question

AJ...I would bring back Elvis..

Howie's answer was the one that brought tears to Abbie's eyes.

"As you all know I lost my beautiful sister to lupus so I would defianlty bring her back and spend one last day with her and my entire family and just tell each other what I loved about each one of them. I don't think families spend enough time loving each other and talking." Howie's voice cracked with emotion.

~~later that evening~~

"STOP IT....DAMN YOU I SAID STOP...PLEASE.....PLEASE I AM A VIRGIN STOP!!" Abbie screamed in the darkness and bolted out of bed. She reached for the light on her bedside table and with shaky hands she turned it on. "Calm down Abbie...you are safe in Orlando...you were having a bad nightmare" Abbie was shaking and pulled the covers around her body and prayed that the shaking would subside. "What the hell is making me think of that night again..dammit.."
