Molly was lying in bed reading a book when there was a knock at her door. "Come in, it's open" She smiled when Howie walked into her room "Hi Howie, what's up?"
"Well um, AJ is crashed and Nick and Brian are playing some video game and well we all know what Sklyar and Kevin are doing, so I thought that maybe you wanted to hang out for a bit." he asked nervously.
Molly smiled "The book was boring anyway." she sat up and curled her legs underneath her. There was an awkward silence as Howie sat down on the bed beside her. "Danielle Steele, that was my sister's favourite author" Howie said softly as he caught a glimpse of what Molly had been reading.
"Her books are good when you want a no brain read, has your sister read her newest one?"
Howie was silent "Umm no, my sister died last year"
"Oh Howie I am sorry"
"I am fine, don't worry about it, so Molly you have been on tour with us for more than a month and I know literally nothing about you, tell me something about you"
Molly took a deep breath, that was the worst possible question he could have asked "Well I am 26, soon to be 27, I was born in Orlando and I graduated from Harvard."
"You are the same age as me...funny we never went to school together, what high school did you got to?"
"South March" Molly lied.
"Oh you went to high school in the southern district, that's why."
Molly could feel the hurt start to come back to her as they spoke about high school, her mind drifted back to the day in the cafeteria when Howie and his friends had stood up in the cafeteria and announced that the cafeteria had to be closed because Molly had eaten all the food, the time that Howie had stuck a note on her back that said "Poke me I giggle" and the time in history class when they were discussing rubenesque woman and Howie said aloud "Hey Molly looks like you were born centuries too early, at least you could have gotten a date back then." Molly's eyes started to well with tears and she interrupted Howie "I don't feel so well, you have to leave."
Howie's eyes filled with concern "Are you okay, is there anything I can do?"
"Yes, leave me alone, I should have known..dammit assholes never change."
Molly ran to the bathroom and sat on the floor, bringing her knees to her chest and crying.
Howie sat in shock, not understanding what had taken place. He got up from the bed and walked out the door.

"Fuck me...as if she kicked Howie out of her room, whatever..are you sure she isn't a lesbien? Hell even if I was a lesbian I still would not kick
Howie out of my bed..." Kim Ann was talking to Skylar, who was filling her in on the situation that had taken place.
"There is something going on and I have to find out, I mean she gets along so well with everyone, the guys worship her, but she is so mean to Howie...I just cannot figure it out, and poor Howie is walking around like a lost puppy, he doesn't know what to make of the situation"
" The girl sounds like she needs a good lay..no seriously why don't you ask her what is going on, I mean it cannot be healthy to have the tour manager hating one of her clients."
"Maybe you are right..girl you always know what to say to cheer me up"
"Well if that Latin lover needs some cheering up you send him down here and I will give him all the attention he needs"
"Bye Kymmi" Skylar hung up the phone and thought about how she was going
to
approach the Howie situation with Molly
