AJ squinted as the light streamed into his open windows. He loved the Orlando sun and he kept every window open when he was home to let the sun shine in. He looked at the clock and saw that the red numbers read 12:00.
"As if I only slept till noon" AJ groaned and turned on his side. He looked at the picture of Howie, Molly and himself that had appeared in People magazine the night of Mandy Moore's birthday. His mom saved every magazine cover and article that mentioned he and the Boys. He stared at Molly and studied her face. Her face was soft and round, her hair was shiny and straight and her smile was huge. She was not beautiful but there was definately something attractive about her. AJ hated when she put herself down and he tried everyday to compliment her. He hadn't always been a man that women lusted after. In grade school he had his share of sweeties but there were always far more attractive guys than he.
When he had started with the group he was shy and preppy, but soon he realised that no matter what he did to his hair, how many tattoos he got or how skinny he was, his friends and family were always going to stick by him. He had woken up one day a couple of years ago and realised that he was sick of being someone that management wanted people to percieve him being. He decided to do things that made him happy and to stop worrying about fitting into the so called perfect and respectable mold that everyone in society seemed to live by. He began to live life for himself and noone else. He wished that he could sit Molly down and tell her that she was beautiful and that no matter what people said that she should always do things to make herself happy and noone else. He had tried to do that with Nick but Nick nevr took anything he said seriously so he gave up. AJ reached for the phone and dialed Molly's cell number.
"Hi this is Molly, I am enjoying the sun and surf with Kim Ann, if you are stuck in the snow.....well it sucks to be you...haha see you in week"
AJ smiled as he heard her voice and then frowned when he realised how much the sound of her voice made him miss her. He rolled over and covered his head with pillows.

Molly and Kim Ann were sitting on the deck when Skylar and Kevin immerged from the house."Well we were expecting much older people," Kim Ann teased. "Seriously though, we can amuse ourselves, you guys take today and spend some quality time together."
Kevin looked at Skylar and smiled "I am no going to argue with them about that. I know a baby store that is calling our names"
The couple went to get ready leaving a grinning Kim Ann and Molly. "I am so glad she fell for it, now what time are all the girls getting in?"
Kim Ann looked at the itenerary "Crissy and Sarah are due in at 1, Keri and Tee at 2:15, Kel, Lisa and Jessi at 2:30, Vero, Andie, Elaine and Tess should be in around 2:45 and the rest of the hootchies had to send their regrets. Now we have a whole hell of a lot to do so let's move our asses!"
The girls were laughing as they watched Kevin and Skylar climb into the
4-Runner and drive off. "She is going to shit when she sees what we have
planned."
