Moving On

*Autumn*

I got so engrossed in watching Gone With The Wind, that I must not of heard Howie knock, because I started hearing a tapping at the window and someone calling my name. I jumped up and opened the door and found Howie tapping on the window. "Oh, there you are Autumn, I was beginning to think the date was called off" He said to me as I opened the door wider so he could come in. "Oh no Howie, I'm sorry, I got involved in watching my favorite movie and lost all track of time" I tell him as I close the door and move to turn off the tv. "Wait Autumn, don't turn it off. What movie is it?" He asks me as he makes himself comfy on Tre's bed. "It's Gone With The Wind. I've seen it like 3 times already but I always see something new each time I watch." I tell him as the movie comes back on. Howie starts to watch it and I see that he seems interested in it so I sit down next to him on the bed. At the end of the movie we realize we totally skipped out on our reservations and we were both starved. "Aw man, I'm really sorry Autumn, I had this night all planned out and it just didn't go the way it was supposed to." He says to me while stretching. I watch him stretch his body and I am enjoying the view. The way his muscles are moving under his shirt when he arched his back to get the kinks out after sitting on the bed for 2 and a half hours. The way his shirt fit him perfectly, not to tight but tight enough to know he has a great chest and a great pair of arms, that just seem if they held you you would feel safe and protected. When he stretched his legs I got to check out his leg muscles, and let me tell you, this man can flex them muscles. I sit there and stare at Howie, not even aware he had spoken to me. I decide to move up from his legs to his face and notice that he has this amused look on his face....DAMN!! Busted! After I realize I got caught checking him out, I get up from the bed to turn off the tv, and because I know I turned a nice shade of red. "I'm sorry Howie, I didn't hear what you said" I hear him laugh and I am wanting to die right then and there from embarrassment, when I feel his arms come around me "I said I think it is about time I do this" he turns me around and takes my face in his hands and kisses me. At first it is a soft and gentle kiss but then all the attraction we feel for each other comes out and the kiss becomes more demanding and passionate. By this time I have wrapped my arms around him and now get to enjoy touching the muscles I was only a few moments ago, staring at. Without realizing it we had moved to the bed. Howie turns us so that I am laying on the bed and then he lays down beside me (hehe had to but a bsb song here) and we continue kissing. Before we know it our clothes are scattered on the floor and we are exploring each others body and I am actually having my dreams and fantasies (well some anyway) come true. After we made love we were laying in each others arms and I felt like I was where I belonged, I was wondering how he was feeling when Howie said to me "Autumn, I feel like this is where I belong and I know I never want to leave it." I look up at him and I have butterflies in my stomach and I know my heart is racing "Exactly what does that mean Howie?" I ask him looking him straight in the eyes. He smiles at me "It means, Autumn, that I want us to be together. I know we haven't known each other long but this feels right to me and I would love to give "us" a try. What do you say are you willing to give us a chance?" I am shocked he actually asked this and I forgot to give him my answer, I don't realize I haven't answered him until he says "I know being with a Backstreet Boy won't be easy, I mean you have to deal with fans hating you because you are with me and the touring and all the other stuff that comes with it, but I know we can make it work if you are willing to just try, Autumn." I look at him and see a worried expression on his face and I can't figure out why it was there so I ask "What's wrong Howie?" "Well gee I just asked you to be my girl and all you are doing is looking at me with some kind of look on your face not answering me." He starts to get up and then I realize that in my head I screamed yes but I never said it outloud to Howie and I feel horrible. I don't let him up and I can tell he is getting frustrated "Howie, I'm sorry. I would love to give "us" a try. I wasn't trying to be rude or mean by not answering you, I guess I was just surprised that you felt the way I did for you. Please forgive me." He stops trying to get up and looks at me in the eyes and he can see that what I said was the truth and he smiles. "I believe you Autumn, you scared me there for a minute." I kiss him and lay my head back down on his chest "I'm sorry Howie, I sure didn't mean to. I was just surprised is all" I feel him wrap his arms around me tighter and he sighs "That's ok, I'm just glad it got straighted out before anything bad was said." "Oh yea, me too Howie, me too" I snuggle up closer to him and think of what could of happened if I didn't open my mouth when I did and give a little shutter, cause I realize that if I didn't say what I did, when I did, I wouldn't be laying here in Howie's arms, I'd be regretting it for the rest of my life wondering what if I would of just said what I felt instead of just being quiet. Before drifting off to sleep I smile knowing that I will never have to wonder what if.

*Lorie*

I get done with wiping down the tables and look to find Tre. I see her and she seems to be taking her sweet time getting done tonight. I know I saw her talk and hug Nick so I know things seems ok with them so I wonder if it has to do with AJ?? I wonder as I walk in back to clock out. I pass AJ, Nick and Brian on my way to the back and say Hi to them all when AJ stops me "Hey Lorie, if you don't mind, I'll take Tre home after work, ok?" Since I really can't see a reason to say 'no, I'll take her home' I tell him that is fine and then go and clock out. I come back out and see that Tre is still wiping down tables and shake my head-yea she is definitely avoiding AJ-I think to myself as I tell everyone bye and go to my car. I pop in a BSB cd and turn it up and roll down the window so I can annoy anyone I happen to pull up next to at a light and start thinking about Kevin and our date the next night. The light turns green and I take off towards the motel, man I can't wait to move out of this place, I think as I pull into the parking lot. I notice a purple corvette next to Autumns car-hmm that looks like Howie's car, I wonder why it's still sitting here- I am thinking as I open the door and walk in. I notice someone sleeping in Tre's bed and figure it's Autumn because I know Tre's still at the club. I quietly close the door and tip toe towards the bathroom. I turn on the light and go back to get my clothes when I look over at Tre's bed and see that the person sleeping in the bed is definitely Autumn, but Howie's in there with her!! OH MY GOSH-I scream in my head- I can't sleep here tonight, it would be too embarrassing for them and me. I grab some clothes and turn off the bathroom light and tip toe back towards the door, so I don't wake them up. I get to the door and turn around and look at Autumn and I can see in the dim light how happy she looks- Way to go Autumn- I whisper and close the door behind me. Ok now, where do I stay the night?? I think to myself as I get back into my car and pull out onto the street. The only place I could think of was Kevins but I didn't feel right just showing up at 3:00 in the morning knocking on his door so I pulled over to a pay phone and called him. The phone started ringing and a thought just came to me..what if he has someone over tonight??-I think to myself just as someone picks up. "Hello?" a groggy sounding Kevin answers. "Kevin? I'm sorry to call so late but I was wondering if I could crash on your couch for the night?" I said to him in one breath, scared of what he might say and think. "Lorie?" I hear him ask. "Oh yea sorry Kev, yes it's me Lorie." "Why do you need a place to stay, what about the room?" "OH ummm well Autumn and Howie are kinda there and not exactly in a possition I want to disturb them, if you know where I'm coming from." I tell him and hear him chuckle on the other end "Yea, I understand what you're saying. Sure come on over, that's no problem." I breathe a sigh of reliefe and he hears me and laughs again. "Thank you soo much Kevin, I really appreciate it." "Your welcome Lorie. See ya in a few." "Yep see ya in a few." I hang up and take off towards Kevin's place and start to get them annoying butterflies again in my stomach. -Why does he get to me like this every time?- I think to myself as I drive. After about 20 minutes I pull into his driveway and see a light on in the living room. I get out and grab my clothes and ring the bell and wait for Kevin to answer. After a few minutes he answers and boy is he a sight when he does. Kevin is standing there in his boxers and no shirt on and I can feel myself getting weaked kneed. "Hey Lorie, come in come in." He says to me when I don't move after he opened the door. I walk into his front room and again love the way he has it decorated. He takes the bag I have my clothes in and puts in down near the kitched entrance "Come on in here Lorie, I'll get you something to drink." He tells me as I follow him. "Oh Kev you don't have to, I know I woke you up." He looks over at me from his refrigerator and smiles at me "Naw, it's ok, I don't mind getting woke up in the middle of the night by a beautiful woman. Now had it been AJ or one of the guys...I would be mad." He says this and we both laugh. He hands me my drink and we head out to where he likes to hang out and just chill, his tv room. "Hey Lorie, give me a second ok, I'm gonna go grab a pair of sweats and a shirt, it's a little chilly in here in just this." I laugh at him "Ok, Kev I'll wait here then." "Ok cool. I'll be right back." I stand in the hallway waiting for Kevin and check out the pictures he has on the wall. I notice he has lots of his family and of BSB as well. "Ok, lets go see what's on the tv now." He says to me when he returns and we head into the tv room. We sit down on the couch, him at one end and me at the other. Yea I know, lots of distance, but I"m nervous. He turns on some old movie "Well Lorie, there is nothing else on, do you mind a old Marilyn Monroe movie??" I never have watched a Marilyn Monroe movie so can't really say if I mind or not "That's fine Kev, what's it called?" "Uhh..Gentlemen Prefer Blondes...I believe" I laugh at the title "So Kev do they?" I ask him. "Do who what??" He asks me back coming over closer to me. "Do gentlemen prefer blondes?" I ask him and now he is sitting right next to me with his arm behind me on the couch. "Hmmm, well not this gentlemen, I prefer beautiful brunettes with a wonderful smile and gorgeous eyes." He tells me this and I can feel myself blushing. I feel his arm come around me and then he takes his hand and makes me look up at his gorgeous green eyes. I know he is going to kiss me and I feel the butterflies come again but this time I am ignoring them so I wrap my arms around his neck and we kiss. This kiss is different from the one outside his house the other night, it is filled with a longing we both feel for each other. We want each other and I know this time nothing is going to stop us from being together. The kiss ended and we look at each other and Kevin turns off the tv and stands up and takes my hand. We walk together hand in hand towards his bedroom knowing that after tonight there is no going back to being just friends, this means something more for both of us. We enter his room and Kev moves away from me and starts lighting candles. I smile at him knowing he is trying hard to make it as romantic as possible for me. After he is done he comes back to me and takes my hand and moves me to the bed. We start to kiss and Kevin removes my shirt and then proceeds to kiss my neck and then moves to my chest. I put my hand in his hair and let out a low moan. He stops what he is doing and looks up at me with a smile and then takes off his own shirt. We remove the rest of our clothes and lay down on the bed together and he starts to kiss me again. I can say that this night I was loved beyond anything I had ever experienced and I doubt I will ever experience it again like this. Kevin made me feel more in that one night then my ex ever had in the few years we were together. After Kevin blew out the candles and came back to bed he wrapped his arms around me and kissed me again. I laid my head on his chest and Kevin asked me a question I never thought I would hear from him..well I heard it plenty in my dreams. "Lorie, would you do me the honor of being my lady?" I smile and look up at him and into his eyes "Yes Kevin, I would love to be your lady now and forever." I tell him and I can see his smile in the little light the moon is shining in his room. He kisses me and I put my head back on his chest and we fall asleep but not before I thank Autumn and Howie in my head for choosing tonight to spend the night together.

*Autumn*

I wake up and look over at Howie and smile remembering what was said between us last night. I get up carefully so I don't wake him up and go into the bathroom to take a shower and get ready for my day at work. I notice that Lorie's bed wasn't slept in last night and it occurs to me that if she came home she saw me and Howie and I suddenly get a little embarrassed about what she might of seen. I get into the shower and start washing my hair and the thought of where Lorie stayed last night at hit me, hmmm I wonder where she was all night- I think as I step out and dry off. I get dressed and walk back into the room and Howie is up and watching tv. I walk over to him and put my arms around him "Hi there" I say and kiss him on his cheek. He grabs my arm and moves me to where I am sitting on his lap "Good-morning angel" he says to me and gives me a kiss. I wrap my arms around his neck and we are enjoying our first morning together as a couple when we hear "Well, well excuse us for interrupting" I look up and see a amused Trelyn and AJ standing at the door. I get up from Howie's lap and I can feel my cheeks get red and of course Tre sees this and starts laughing at me. They come into the room and I notice that they are holding hands and she seems a lot happier then she did the last time I saw her. "So I see you two got things straightened out" I say and notice Howie looking at them with a smile. "Yep, we did. It was a little touchy there for a few minutes last night but it all got figured out." AJ tells me and gives Tre a kiss. "Well I'm happy to hear that you guys." "Thanks Autumn, I'm happy about it too." Tre tells me. Howie walks past me and gives me a kiss "I'm going to go freshen up and then take off babe. I have to get to the club to do some paper work." I smile and watch him walk into the bathroom and then look back over to Tre and AJ and they are both staring at me. "What?" I ask. "I see you guys are umm, getting along well" Tre says to me smiling. I laugh at her choice of words "Yes, things seem to be moving along fine, thank you" "Yea, very well indeed." AJ says and we all 3 start laughing. "I'm glad you and Howie got together Autumn, you guys seem right for each other." "Thanks Tre, so am I." "So, girly" Tre starts with this look in her eye, that always makes me nervous. "What Tre?" "Are you guys a couple or just ummm bed buddies?" Aj starts cracking up when she asks me this and I walk over to her and hit her on the arm "Ouch, I was just wondering..geesh" Aj still hasn't stopped laughing and so he gets me to laugh about the question "Well if you need to know Tre, we are an official couple. We talked about it last night and we want to give it a try." After I tell her it hits me, really hits me, that I am officially Howie D's girlfriend and I can't believe it. She smiles and walks over and gives me a hug "I'm happy for you Autumn, you always wanted to be with him." I smile thinking about when I was in Kentucky just dreaming about being able to talk to Howie, let alone being his girlfriend "Thanks Tre. But what about you two, bed buddies or a couple?" I ask Tre and I see a little bit of a shadow over Tre's eyes - Oh crap, maybe I shouldn't of asked cause obviously AJ hasn't even made a move about making it official-I think. "Well I guess you can say we are dating." Tre tells me and goes over to where her clothes are and starts straightening them out. I look over at AJ and he is watching her every move. I really don't know what to say because I know Tre is upset about AJ not making them 'official' but then she knows how much AJ likes his women, I mean it was just proven to her the other night. AJ gets up off the bed and walks over to Tre and wraps his arms around her waist and gives her a kiss on her neck "I was actually thinking about making us an official couple, but if you feel like just dating baby, I guess I can do that too but I would much rather have you as my girl" I hear AJ say this to her and I am so happy cause now Tre is getting what she wanted for so long. She turns around and wraps her arms around his neck and kisses him to the point where I felt I better leave the room. She breaks the kiss "Damn girl if I knew you would kiss me like that after I said that I would of done it at my place where we could be alone." I start laughing and so does Tre "Oh AJ of course I want to be your girl but I thought you decided you didn't want a permanent girlfriend, that's what you said this morning." "I know what I said this morning, lets just chuck that up as me being a stupid idiot again and now I've come to my senses. I don't want to be without you in my life baby now or ever." I can't believe I heard such beautiful words come out of AJ McLeans mouth and I had to look at him to make sure it was him, I was shocked but extremely happy for Tre. I see Tre and AJ kiss again and I smile. "Ahem are we interrupting a group moment?" I look over towards the door and I see Kevin and Lorie standing there laughing. Tre and AJ break from their kiss and look over there too. Howie comes out of the bathroom at that time "Well well the gangs all here" AJ says and we all start laughing "Yes seems that way" I say and move over to Howie. Well now I know where Lorie stayed the night-I think to myself as her and Kevin walk farther into the room. "So Kev, what's up?" Howie asks, knowing I was dying to find out if him and Lorie were a couple too. "Oh not a whole lot there Howie, just wanted to come over here and drop my girlfriend off before work so her ogre boss doesn't fire her." Lorie looks at him and playfully hits him on the arm "Kevin!" but then starts laughing as we all do. "Oh her ogre boss huh? Gee I just might have to talk to this man and straighten him out" Howie says to them "Hey man could you talk to Tre's boss too, he's not a very nice guy either, making her work during the weekend. I mean come on her boyfriend needs her too." I look at Tre and she has the look on her face that says 'oh you just did not go there' but Howie starts laughing "Yea I'll see what I can do" "Thanks man" AJ and Kev say together. After a while the guys have to leave cause I leave for work and Tre and Lorie have to get ready for work. We all kissed our guys and they and I took off. I don't think I've ever driven to work happier then I did that day...well not until about 6 months later.

*Trelyn*

I wake up in AJ's arms the next morning and I don't think I could ever remember a time I was more happy then right then and there. I get gently out of bed so I don't disturb him and go into the kitchen to get a drink of orange juice. I get attacked by JD wanting something to eat so I look around and find the dog food and get him fed and head back to the bedroom. I walk in and see that AJ wasn't in bed anymore and I figure he is in the bathroom. I take off the shirt of AJ's that I put on before going to the kitchen and get dressed in my clothes when AJ walks out from the bathroom. I walk over to him and kiss him "Good-morning sweetie" "Good-morning" AJ says to me and walks away and grabs his clothes-great, what's going on with him-I think to myself and follow him out of the bedroom and into the kitchen. I know something is wrong, but I am afraid to ask him. I don't want to find out that what was said last night about me being his girlfriend was a lie and he didn't want it now, but that is exactly what happens. "Ok AJ, what's going on? I can tell something is bothering you, spit it out." I tell him as I sit down at his table. I hear him sigh and the dread that I was trying to fight off comes at me full force-here it comes-I think as he sits down across from me "Tre, I know what I said last night about us being together as boyfriend and girlfriend but I don't think I can. I don't think that after my last relationship with Lisa, I can go through all the hurt that will come eventually, I mean it always does." I'm sitting across from him and I can see the pain in his eyes so I know this is hurting him to be saying it to me but..yet he is. There are tears forming in my eyes but I refuse to let them fall, I will fight for what I want this time, not just let it get taken away without trying for it. "AJ, I know you've been hurt, but I'm not Lisa or any of the other girls you went out with. I don't care about your money, house or cars, I want to be with you..Alexander James McLean, not AJ of the Backstreet Boys. I just don't know how to convince you of that but it's the truth, I promise you." AJ and I sit and look at each other and I can tell he is having a conflict inside as he is thinking about what I said. "Well how about we date for a little while and see how that works?" He asks me and I am disappointed but also relieved because at least it's something. "Ok AJ, if that's what you want, fine." I try to hid the disappointment out of my voice but know I didn't do a very good job and he heard it cause I see him flinch a little when I say it. I get up to walk out of the kitchen so I can get my purse and he jumps up out of his chair and grabs my arm "I'm sorry Tre, I didn't mean to hurt you, please don't be angry. I'm just a little weary about getting into another relationship" I look up at him and get lost into his eyes and how sad he looks at the possibility of hurting me so I give him a smile and a kiss "I'm fine AJ, really. We are dating and that is how it is going to be right now. I can deal with that, ok?" He smiles at me and gives me another kiss and lets me go. "I better get going though AJ, I have to get to work pretty soon and I still have to get ready." "Ok babe, no problem." He gets his keys and I have my stuff and we take off. We get to the motel and we both look at each other because we notice Howie's car parked in front. "Well, looks like some one is getting to know each other." AJ says and I laugh. We get out and I open the door and we are greeted by Howie and Autumn making out. Autumn is sitting in Howie's lap and we know if we didn't show up they wouldn't be just making out for very much longer. We look at each other and I see the mischievous look come into AJ's eyes and I silently laugh "Watch this" he mouths to me and I shake my head. "Well, well excuse us for interrupting" AJ says loudly and I see Autumns head jerk up and look over at us. she gets up from Howie's lap and I can see that her cheeks are red and of course I have to laugh. We close the door and walk into the room and we are holding hands. "So I see you two got things straightened out" She says to us and I notice Howie looking at us with a smile on his face. "Yep, we did. It was a little touchy there for a few minutes last night but it all got figured out." AJ tells them and gives me a kiss. "Well I'm happy to hear that you guys." "Thanks Autumn, I'm happy about it too." I say to her. Howie walks past us and gives Autumn a kiss "I'm going to go freshen up and then take off babe. I have to get to the club to do some paper work." he tells her and I see her smile and watch him walk into the bathroom. Me and AJ look at each other and then look at her "What?" she asks. "I see you guys are umm, getting along well" I say to her smiling. She laughs at me "Yes, things seem to be moving along fine, thank you" "Yea, very well indeed." AJ says and we all 3 start laughing. "I'm glad you and Howie got together Autumn, you guys seem right for each other." "Thanks Tre, so am I." "So, girly" I say to her "What Tre?" "Are you guys a couple or just ummm bed buddies?" Aj starts cracking up when I ask her this and then she walks over hits me on the arm "Ouch, I was just wondering..geesh" Aj still hasn't stopped laughing and then Autumn starts laughing "Well if you need to know Tre, we are an official couple. We talked about it last night and we want to give it a try." I give her a smile and walk over and give her a hug "I'm happy for you Autumn, you always wanted to be with him." I tell her but all I can really feel is jealousy and pain because she got what I wanted with AJ. "Thanks Tre. But what about you two, bed buddies or a couple?" She asks me and the feeling of sadness comes over me and I don't really want to talk about it. "Well I guess you can say we are dating." I tell her and decide that my clothes need to be straightened out. I can feel AJ watching me but I don't meet his eyes. I hear him get up off the bed and he walk over to me and wraps his arms around my waist and gives me a kiss on my neck "I was actually thinking about making us an official couple, but if you feel like just dating baby, I guess I can do that too but I would much rather have you as my girl" I hear him say and I can't believe what I heard so I turn around and wrap my arms around his neck and look into his eyes and I can see he is serious and I kiss him. I break the kiss and AJ looks at me "Damn girl if I knew you would kiss me like that after I said that I would of done it at my place where we could be alone." I start laughing and so does Autumn, who I almost forgot was even in the room. I'm so happy that he has decided to give us a chance "Oh AJ of course I want to be your girl but I thought you decided you didn't want a permanent girlfriend, that's what you said this morning." "I know what I said this morning, lets just chuck that up as me being a stupid idiot again and now I've come to my senses. I don't want to be without you in my life baby now or ever." He says this and I can't believe it came from his mouth. AJ and I kiss again, oblivious to everything around us. "Ahem are we interrupting a group moment?" We break from our kiss and see Kevin and Lorie standing over at the door. "Well well the gangs all here" AJ says and we all start laughing "Yes seems that way" Autumn says and moves over to Howie. Kevin and Lorie walk farther into the room. "So Kev, what's up?" Howie asks. "Oh not a whole lot there Howie, just wanted to come over here and drop my girlfriend off before work so her ogre boss doesn't fire her." Lorie looks at him and playfully hits him on the arm "Kevin!" but then starts laughing as we all do. Wow Lorie and Kevin are a couple too, it can't get any better then this- I think to myself as Howie says "Oh her ogre boss huh? Gee I just might have to talk to this man and straighten him out" Howie says to them "Hey man could you talk to Tre's boss too, he's not a very nice guy either, making her work during the weekend. I mean come on her boyfriend needs her too." I turn around and look at AJ with a look on my face that says 'oh you just did not go there' but Howie starts laughing "Yea I'll see what I can do" "Thanks man" AJ and Kev say together. After a while the guys have to leave because Lorie and I have to get ready for work and Autumn has to take off and go to work I give AJ a kiss bye and he tells me he will be into the club to see me later on I tell him ok and that I'll see him there. As Lorie and I are getting ready for work I think to myself-I don't think I could be any happier then I am at this moment...well that is what I thought up to 6 months later.

*Lorie*

Kevin and I were jarred awake by his alarm clock, why it was set, I have no idea. He reaches over and turns it off "Good morning sweetie" He says to me and gives me a kiss. "Good morning to you" I say as he wraps his arms around me. We lay there for about 15 minutes longer and then we decide to get up to get some breakfast. I watch Kevin start getting dressed and can't believe how perfect his body is. I sit there staring and then hear a chuckle and look up at him "Uh, enjoying what your looking at?" He asks me with a smile on his face. Oh damn, I cannot believe I just got busted staring at him-I think to myself as my face turns bright red and I look away from his eyes. He walks over to me and lifts my head up so I am looking at him and he kiss's me and we lay back in the bed. Needless to say...breakfast was forgotten. A couple hours later we make our way to the kitchen and instead of breakfast, Kevin makes me lunch. We sit down to eat and I feel so comfortable here with him that it is weird. I mean I really haven't spent enough time here to feel as comfortable as I do but yet it feels like I belonged here in this house, with this man, eating here at this table. "What do you feel like doing today?" Kevin asks me bringing me out of my thoughts. "Oh I don't know. I have to go to work at 4 and it's like 1 now." "Well we could always stay here and watch a movie" "Now that" I say to him as I get up and move over to his chair and sit on his lap "sounds like a great plan" I wrap my arms around his neck and kiss him. "You know Lorie, you keep kissing me like that, we will never get to the movie" I laugh and get up off his lap and start to walk into the living room "Oh well we can't have that now, can we" I hear him get push the chair back and smile to myself "Well hey now, it wasn't like I was complaining" Kevin says walking out of the kitchen and heads to the couch that I'm sitting on. "Sounded like a complaint to me" I say in a little pouty voice "Trust me babe, there are no complaints from me. Want me to show you how much I enjoy the attention you give me?" He asks me and I get shivers up my spine from the way he asks. I look into his eyes and get lost in them and well....the movie was the second thing forgotten that day. At around 3:00 I tell Kevin he better take me back to the motel cause I have to get ready for work. I really don't want to go but I know I have to, gotta make money if me and the girls ever want to get an apartment. We jump into his car and head for the motel, holding hands. We pull into the parking lot and see Howies and AJ's cars there and we both look at each other "Well looks like AJ and Tre might of made up" Kevin says as he gets out of the car. "I sure hope that is what this means. Looks like Howie and Autumn might be getting along quite well also" I say as I open the door to the room. I open the door and first thing I see is AJ and Tre involved in what looked like a very passionate kiss. I also see Autumn standing there looking like she wanted to be some were else at that moment. Then Howie walks out of the bathroom. Kevin and I look at each other "Ahem are we interrupting a group moment?" Kevin asks and I about started to laugh. AJ and Tre break from the kiss and look over at us "Well well the gangs all here" AJ says and we all start laughing "Yes seems that way" Autumn says and moves over to Howie. We walk into the room and I notice AJ and Tre have their arms around each other and that she looks so happy she could bust at any moment. Autumn and Howie are standing together and he has his arm around her waist. I've never seen her look happier either. -Wow it seems all of our dreams are finally coming true-I think to myself. "So Kev, what's up?" Howie asks. "Oh not a whole lot there Howie, just wanted to come over here and drop my girlfriend off before work so her ogre boss doesn't fire her." OMG, I cannot believe he said that-I think and playfully hit him on the arm "Kevin!" I groan but then laugh because of the look he gives me. Thankfully Howie laughed too as did everyone else. I should of known Howie would, I mean the guys joke around all the time. "Oh her ogre boss huh? Gee I just might have to talk to this man and straighten him out" Howie says. "Hey man could you talk to Tre's boss too, he's not a very nice guy either, making her work during the weekend. I mean come on her boyfriend needs her too." I turn around and look at AJ and see Tre give him a look and I know if we weren't all here AJ would be in trouble. Howie starts laughing "Yea I'll see what I can do" "Thanks man" AJ and Kev say say together and then we all bust up laughing again. We really don't hang out a long time with the guys because Autumn has to get to work, lucky her, she pulled her first night shift since getting the job. Tre and I have to get ready, and quick, since it is now 3:45 and we have to be there at 4:00, luckily tho, our friend is sleeping with our boss.....hehehehe. I give Kevin a kiss good-bye "Hey babe, I won't be able to make it in to see you tonight I want to write on some songs. You want to come over after work?" "I don't want to wake you up or anything Kev, I won't be getting off work until after 2:00 in the morning" I tell him as I give him a hug and he gets into his car "Don't worry about waking me up, I don't mind having to get up to let you in. I can't think of a better reason to get up out of bed then a beautiful woman knocking at my door" He says and kisses me again. "Aww thank you baby, you are so sweet. I will see you after work then." I tell him and move away from the car so he can leave. Autumn leaves shortly after the guys do and Tre and I start to get ready for work, and fast! As we drive away from the motel I think I can't wait to get out of this place and be able to get an apartment. I didn't know how much my life would change 6 months down the road.
