"Bone, I cannot figure her out...one minute we were kissing and the next she is screaming at me and telling me that she can't forgive me" Howie was sitting on AJ's bed. He had waited until AJ and his mom had come back to the hotel and then he told AJ they needed to talk.
"D are you sure that you and her never hooked up, I mean maybe you were drunk and now she is all bitter that you used her..." AJ suggested.
"Bone you know that I am not into that shit, come on.."
"I don't know what to tell you buddy, the most you can hope for is that she tells Skylar or Kim Ann and maybe they will tell you..I mean all you have to do is shake your hips and lick your lips and Kim Ann will spill everything she knows" AJ laughed as he tried to lighten up the situation.
" I hope you are right AJ"

Molly laid awake and stared at the ceiling, the events of the evening were fresh in her mind and she wondered how she was going to face Howie the next day. She reached for the phone and waited for someone to pick up.
" ‘Lo?"
"AJ it is Molly, I know I woke you but I really need to talk, can I come over?"
"Of course Molly" AJ hung up the phone "Maybe know I will be able to find out what is going on with her and D"
~~**~~
"AJ the reason I woke you was because I really need to talk to you and I know how close you and Howie are" Molly and AJ were sitting side by side, leaning against the headboard of AJ's bed. "I need to know what Howie is like."
"What he is like? What do you mean?" AJ asked confused.
"I mean what type of man is he?"
"Molly I have known Howie for over 7 years and he is without a doubt the most gentle and caring man I know. He would give the shirt off of his back if a child was cold, he would run into traffic to save a stray dog. He cares deeply about his family and friends and he knows that life is a gift and tries to fill his life with goodness and beauty. Molly why are you asking me all this, you have been on tour with us for 3 months, surely you can see how special Howie is" AJ turned to look at Molly, whose face was filled with worry and her eyes which were filling with tears. "Hey, aw Molly don't cry" AJ gently wiped away the tears and pulled her in close. "I know you like Howie and I definitely knows that he likes you so stop second guessing your feelings and tell him."
Molly buried her face in the young man's chest "AJ how can I love someone who I have spent eternity hating, his face and his voice are the ones that haunt my memories, his hate wiped out my childhood?"
AJ was shocked and pulled her away from his chest and looked through the tears into her eyes "Molly what are you talking about? What do you mean he ruined your childhood?" The thoughts were whirling around in AJ's head and he couldn't think straight.
"AJ you wouldnt understand...dammit why did I ever get involved, I should have stayed away."
AJ held the woman as she cried, all the while trying to figure out what she was implying about his best friend.

"How do I tell Kevin that I cant handle being on the road; how do I tell the man that I am going to marry that I want to settle down, that I want a house and children. I am 28 and don't want to spend the next 5 years of our married life touring the world. I know that performing is his dream and I would never ask him to give that up but it is not for me. I know that I cannot handle being married and having him away from me for 10 months of the year. I need my career, just as he won't give his up neither will I..We spoke in length last night about wanting to have children right away and as much as I cannot wait to feel our child grow inside me, how happy will I be with him touring and not being beside me as our child grows. I know that I am deeply in love with him and cannot even imagine not having Kevin in my life but if neither of us are willing to give up on our dreams how can our love ever last?"
Skylar looked at Kevin who was curled up in bed and wiped the tears that
were falling like raindrops onto her journal. "Baby how do I tell you
that I
can't marry you?"
