The next morning Allie met Lexi and the 2 went running, Lexi squealed when she saw the claudaugh ring and they gossiped about the night before. Allie held out her right hand and showed the ring that was now on her middle finger. Lexi admired it and then got quiet when she heard it was from Nick.
"On the subject of Nick I know you guys are close and I was wondering if you knew what was up with him?" Lex asked her cousin.
Allie was fiercly loyal to her cousin but she knew it was not fair to betray the trust Nick had given her.
"I think he is just played out, and well I know the tabloids are really getting to him, they keep commenting on his weight and it is really playing on his emotions."
"I just can't handle the moodiness from him anymore, I think I am going to call it quits." Lex looked at her cousin with tears. "It is going to hurt but I think Nick has to grow up before we can be together."
Allie hugged her cousin "Lex it will get better, I think Nicky needs some time to search his soul and answer some questions to himself before he can commit..Give him time"
The 2 girls ran down the canal and discussed what they were going to wear that evening to the Music Awards.

Chia and AJ were shopping, looking for a dress for Chia to wear to the awards, when her cell went off...
"Are you sure you can't handle it yourself...fine..I will be there in 15 minutes." Chia hung up the phone and looked at AJ sadly "Baby there is an emergency and I have to run to the office, I am sorry" she kissed AJ.
"Monkey, it's alright, I will look for a dress for you and meet you back at the flat at 4 pm..Okay?"
The 2 kissed and AJ watched as Chia hailed a cab.

Nick and Aaron were hanging out in Nick's room playing Crash Bandicoot when Aaron asked him about Allie.
"What do you mean?" Nick asked his brother
"Well I see the way you look at her and mom and BJ say that you have a crush on her..isn't she D's girl?"
"Aaron we are just close friends, you'll understand when you are older." The 2 brothers continued playing the playstation.

Howie and Kevin were at the art gallery when Howie saw that Dr Jekyll and Mr. Hyde was in London touring, he knew that Allie loved Broadway and he decided to get tickets for the next evening's opening.

Allie was on her way to meet 98* her new clients when her cell rang "Allie Dawson, Oh Hi Dave, I am on my way as we speak, see you in about 10 minutes." Dave was 98* manager and they had a meeting with the boys that afternoon to introduce Allie to the boys. She had neglected to tell Howie about her new clients, though she was sure he would be excited for her. The cab pulled up in front of the hotel and Allie was surprised to see fans lined up, holding pictures of the 98* boys. As she slipped through the crowd fans recognized her.."Great I can see the rumors flying now, BSB's girlfriend caught sneaking into 98* hotel" Allie laughed and phoned up to the room to let them know she was there.
The door opened and a very good looking man was standing in the doorway. "Hi you must be Allie, I am Nick come on in."
Allie walked beside Nick into the room and saw Dave, and 3 other guys sitting around the table. "Allie this is my brother Drew, Jeff,, and Justin.."
The guys all said hello and they started down to business.

2 hours later
"Well I must excuse myself, I am attending the Music Awards with my boyfriend tonight and I should go and get ready. It was very nice to meet you all and I guess I will see you tonight."
"I will walk you out" Drew piped up.
"That would be great." The were in the elevator when Drew asked Allie a question "If you don't mind me asking, is it true you are dating Howie?"
"Yes, we have been together for almost 5 months.."" Allie smiled and spotted the claudaugh ring on Drew's finger. "Howie gave me one for my birthday, that is neat you have one too."
"My ex gave me this one and I love the romance behind it that I can't bear to take it off thou now it is on my left hand, I see yours is on your right, pretty serious huh?"
"We are taking it slow...well Drew thanks so much for walking me down, good luck tonight and I will be cheering for you.."
"No you won't we are up against your man and his friends..see you tonight" and Drew gave her a friendly quick hug.
Little did the 2 know that a photographer for the London Press had
caught
their little exchange on film.
