A BSB Fan's Dream Come True Chapter 31 "Everybody, rock your body! Everybody, rock your body! Backstreet's Back alright!" the guys finished off their most popular song, and sunk to the ground in their coffins. The whole crowd was in pandomonium, as they screamed, cried, and stomped the floor and the chairs in exitement. "Exit?" Britney asked Emilie and she nodded. Britney grabbed her hand, and they ran towards the side of the stage, where two of the bodyguards allowed them to go in. They walked back in to see the guys come out from the concert, sweaty, as they each gave Britney and Emilie a goofy smile. "Well, off to Hartford tonight!" Howie commented, as he took a swing from his water bottle. "This schedule is going to get crazy now that we are in the tour full swing." "Tell me about it Howie," Britney complained, as she grabbed AJ's water bottle, and took a sip. "I have had an average of four hours of sleep and I want to do is sleep. I'm on stage, and I feel like curling up right there!" "I guess you get used to the lack of sleep after a while," AJ told her, as he grabbed his water bottle back. "How did we do tonight ladies?" "Terrible!" Britney teased her, but there was laughter dancing in her eyes. "Well, you weren't that bad," AJ joked back and Britney pretended to become angry. "I know, I know," Britney said, as she tossed him a towel. "I was absolutely brilliant!" "Okay, self-glorifying children, we have exactly twenty minutes to pack up and get on the buses!" Denise explained, as she walked by with some clean towels for the guys. "Britney, your tourbus is looking for you! Better get a move-on sweetheart." "I will Mrs.McLean," Britney promised, grabbing her Adidas backpack. "Bye everyone. Good night!" "Good night Britney," they all chimed in, as Emilie went over to help Denise. "Thanks Em," Denise replied, as she handed her some dirty towels. "Could you bring these to the laundry room near the side door, and ask if they would mind washing them?" "No problem," Emilie smiled, and she took the smelly towels, and walked towards the laundry room. She passed some security guards and the BSB band members, as they nodded to her. She distributed the towels in the room, and backed out, into somebody. "Ow!" sang an unfamiliar voice, and Emilie turned to see Eloisa standing there. "Sorry," Emilie snapped, and she turned away from the horrible creature. "Excuse me? Are you Emilie?" she snapped, grabbing Emilie's arm. "Yeah! Why?" Emilie asked her, turning to meet the girl's ice cold, blue eyes. "Well, Nicky just broke up with me because of you," Eloisa shrieked, as she dug her nails into Emilie's flesh. "I hope you are happy. I mean, I thought you two broke up." "We did," she replied curtly. "Get your nails off my arm." Eloisa dug harder for a second, and released her powering grip. "Know what? I don't even know what Nick sees in you!" Eloisa commented, as Emilie saw Lonnie appear out of nowhere. "Is there a problem here Emilie?" Lonnie asked, looking gravely at Eloisa. Eloisa's frozen expression turned to an angelic one, as she backed away from Emilie. "I was just leaving," she commented, and walked away from Emilie. "Thanks Lonnie," Emilie smiled apprectiatively. "First Sheri and now Eloisa! Will it ever end?" "I hope so Em," Lonnie winked at her, as they both walked out the side door, and towards the tourbus. Emilie was amazed at how small it looked on the outside with it's black marble rooftop, and shining eagle on the rearened of it, until you went on the inside where a small sitting area, a kitchen, two bathrooms, and six bedrooms occupied the back. She walked on to see Nick lying on the front couch watching Dawson's Creek. "When did you start watching this show?" Emilie asked him, as she curled up on the other couch. "Since I discovered Joey," Nick winked at her, and she smiled at him. "Did you have a good night?" "Of course I did," Emilie replied, as she picked up Kevin's weightlifting magazine. "Did you?" "Yeah," Nick answered simply. Emilie took one look at the cover of the magazine and put it back down quickly. She was totally grossed by the weightlifter on the front because of his enormous muscles that had spider veins popping out everywhere. She settled back to watch Dawson's Creek and Emilie sighed dreamily at Dawson's bright blond hair and captivating blue eyes. "Hey, are you two hungry?" AJ asked, appearing suddenly, at the doorway of the bus. "Yeah," Emilie replied, sitting up. "Nick?" "I'm kind of hungry," Nick answered, not taking his eyes away from the screen. "How about McDonalds?" AJ suggested to the busdriver and he announced, proudly, there was one right ahead. "Hey Em, want to get everyone's orders and you and I'll go in and get them?" "Sure," Emilie answered helpfully. "Nick? Want to come?" "No, I'm tired," Nick answered, yawning. "Could you please get me a Big Mac though?" "Yeah sure," Emilie replied, as she smiled down at him. She grabbed a paper and pen, and walked to the back of the bus. Brian was sipping coffee in the kitchen. "B-Rok, want anything from McDonalds?" "Sure," Brian replied smiling. "How about a cheese pizza?" "You've got it," Emilie smiled back, as AJ appeared again, with everyone else's orders. "Ready?" AJ nodded, as Buck stopped the bus and AJ and her ran into the McDonalds. They were almost about to close and she heard the front cashier sigh in fustration at the new customers. "Can I take your order?" she snapped, as she groanwed outwardly, sighing. "Yeah, I'll have a Big Mac and a free smile," AJ flirted expertly and the girl looked up at him for the first time. "Omigoodness?! AJ McLean! Wow! Hi!" she shrieked excitedly. "You can have all the free smiles you want!" "Thanks," AJ winked, as Emilie placed everyone's orders. "I'll get the straws and the napkins!" Emilie nodded, and she paid for everyone's orders. They grabbed their dinner and ran back into the tourbus. Emilie handed Buck two cheeseburgers she had ordered for him, and he was very happy. "Thanks," Buck smiled greatfully at her and she nodded. She headed back to Nick, who was now drawing on his sketch board, and she handed him his Big Mac. AJ took the rest of the food and brought it back for everyone else. "Thanks Hon," Nick replied, and Emilie looked at him in surprise. Nick looked at her and he looked alarmed as well. "Nick...," Emilie replied softly. "I'm sorry Em," Nick answered quietly. "It's just wierd." "Oh yeah," Emilie sighed, as she grabbed her food. "I'm going to bed. Night." Nick nodded good night to her respectfully, and she walked in the kitchen, and couldn't move because everyone was crowded in there eating. "We were wondering when you were coming to join the party!" Brian smiled at her. "This party pooper's going to hit the sack," Emilie replied smiling back. She excused herself, and went back into her bedroom. She ate her dinner and fell asleep on her bed.Sunlight peeked through the somber clouds, as the five tourbuses pulled up to the front of the glorious Amazon Hilton motel in Hartford, Conneticut. Emilie awoke quickly, and peaked through the small window that was in her bedroom, to see about 10 fans waiting outside. She was glad there was only ten, and was happy that they had finally arrived. She had slept for about six hours and was gracious she got that much sleep. "Em? Are you awake?" Nick knocked on her door. "Yeah Nick," Emilie replied. "Come on in." He came through the door and Emilie thought he looked adorable. He was wearing Nike tearaway pants, and a South Park t-shirt. He had sleepy eyes and a backwards baseball hat on. "Good morning," Nick commented, as he sat down on her messy bed. "How are you this morning?" "Happy, relaxed, and ready to do something!" Emilie replied, as she gathered up some of her belongings. "You?" "Tired, relaxed, and ready to do something fun with you!" Nick winked back at her and she offered a little laugh, and then smiled. "Okay, what do you want to do?" Emilie asked him. "How about we actually get a puppy for the tourbus?" Nick replied enthusiastically and Emilie looked up with exitement. "Oh yes! That would be wonderful!" Emilie answered. "Come on! Let's go get a shower and then go shopping." She practically mauled Brian over in the hall, and they both fell on the floor, as everyone started laughing. Brian was laughing too, but Emilie's face had become a ghostly white. "What are you in a hurry for?" Brian teased her, as she got up. "Are you okay Bri? I'm so sorry!" Emilie apologized regretfully, as she helped him up. "Em, I'm fine," Brian replied smiling at her. "You worry too much!" "I know," Emilie smiled back, and she danced down the hallway. She went to the front of the tourbus to see Howie and AJ preparing to exit the tourbus and sign some autographs first. "Hey Em," Howie and AJ said at the same time. "I'll go first!" Emilie winked at them, and she pranced off the tourbus. "Hi everyone!" "Hi Emilie!" they all chimed together, as a few asked for pictures. She took pictures with all of them, and then went into the motel. She saw Lance and Justin already in there, both looking relaxed. "Hi!" Emilie smiled at them. "How are you?" "Good!" Lance replied. "Why are you so chipper this morning?" "I have absolutely no idea!" Emilie answered, beaming. "I'm very hungry. Tell Nick I went to go get some breakfast. Wait, I'm going to get changed first because I probably look like a diminished train wreck or something." "You look fine," Justin told her, but she didn't hear him, because she was too busy staring at two incredibly hot waiters in the restaurant. "Nice," she muttered, under her breath, as she felt two arms surround her from behind. "Ah! Who's there?" "Guess," the person whispered in her ear. "Nick! Stop playing games!" Emilie snapped, but the person spun her around, and she turned to see her older brother Mike standing there. "Mike! Omigoodness! When did you get here?" She hugged him tightly, and saw Brandy standing beside him. "Sissie! Omigoodness! I miss you so much!" Brandy shrieked, and she flew into her older sister's arms. "Brandy, hey sweetie!" Emilie replied, hugging her sister. "What's going on Mike?" "We decided to surprise you, Brandy and I," Mike replied. "Actually, she has been whining for the last couple of days to see you, so Mom booked two plane tickets to Hartford, so she could see you." "Sissie, sleeping in your bed is not the same!" Brandy exclaimed. "I mean, I can't see you anymore, and I want to see you all the time! Where's Nick? I want to give a hug!" She turned her bright green eyes to face Lance and Justin. "Hi Brandy!" Justin winked at her. "Who are you?" Brandy asked Justin. "You look like that guy off of N Stink!" "N Stink?" Lance laughed. "Yeah!" Brandy replied. "Are you N Stink?" "Yes they are Brandy," Emilie replied, as she picked her up. "There name is N Sync and this is Lance and Justin." "Hi Lance and Justin!" Brandy waved at them. "Nick! Omigoodness!" She jumped out of Emilie's arms and ran towards him. He was carrying luggage, and she flew into his arms, almost knocking him over. "Hey Brandy," Nick replied, as he dropped the luggage and hugged her. "How are you munchkin?" "Nick, I missed you as much as I missed Sissie," Brandy exclaimed, as he picked her up. "Mike brought me to see you because I missed you so much and AJ!" She jumped out of Nick's arms and flew into AJ's. "She misses everyone I think," Lance laughed. "AJ, you look so cool!" Brandy sang. "I love you! Where's Brian?" "Right here kiddo," Brian replied. "Hey Brian!" Brandy shrieked, and she gave him a big hug as well. "Nick? Where's Aaron?" "At home," Nick replied and Brandy nodded. "Mike? How are you man?" "Good," Mike answered curtly. "Emilie, can I leave Brandy with you for the day?" "Why not leave her with us until Darien Lake?" Emilie suggested. "I mean, we'll be there in three tour dates anyway." "Are you sure?" Mike asked and Emilie nodded. "Call Mom and ask her. You know how she is." Emilie nodded, as she took his cell phone and they lead Brandy towards a more quieter area of the place. "Why is Mike pissed off at you?" AJ asked Nick. "Do you think he knows about the whole Eloisa and Sheri episode?" "Why would he?" Nick wondered. "Big brother instinct is kicking in on him," Chris informed him, as he passed them. "If Emilie was my little sister, I would have kicked your ass days ago." "Whatever," Nick muttered, as Brandy ran across the lobby to him. "Nick!" she shrieked loudly. "I am going to stay with you and Sissie for three days! I am so excited! Yeah!" "Great Brandy," Nick said, as he picked her up. "I can't wait." "Nick, you'd better take care of her," Mike told him. "I'm watching you man." "You mean Brandy?" Nick asked him. "No Emilie," Mike replied over his shoulder. "I don't like guys who dog out my sister." He gave him one last glance and headed out the door towards his rented car. "How did you dog out Sissie?" Brandy asked Nick, as he put her down. "Sissie! My Barbie backpack is right here!" She ran towards Brian and insisted on having him carry her suitcase for her. "Emilie, did you tell Mike about Eloisa and Sheri?" Nick asked her. "I told my mom," Emilie replied quietly. "Don't listen to him Nick. He's way too overprotective." "Oh," Nick nodded and realized if someone had done that to one of his younger sisters, he would have felt the exact same way as Mike did. No big deal. "Sissie? I am so hungry!" Brandy yelled at her, as Kevin handed Emilie her room key. "Hi Kevin!" "Hey Brandy," Kevin smiled at her. "How are you?" "Excellent," Brandy replied. "Can I give you a hug?" "Sure," Kevin replied, and it was adorable to see 6'2, 180 pound Kevin, hug the little 7-year-old. "Thanks Kev," Emilie smiled at him. "Brandy, I gotta go get changed. Are you coming?" "No!" Brandy protested. "I am so hungry! Can someone take me to get some Cheerios?" "I will," Justin volunteered, as he crouched down to her level. "Want to come with Lance and me?" "Yeah, I want to hang out with N Stink!" she shrieked, and she take his head. "Sissie! Justin's my new boyfriend for the day! Bye!" "Bye," Emilie laughed, as she threw an thanking glance at Lance and Justin. She followed Nick onto the elevator with Brian. "Did you know Brandy was coming?" Brian asked her. "I had no idea!" Emilie replied beaming and she looked at them curiously. "You knew, didn't you?" "Actually, Nick called your mom and asked if Brandy could fly out to see you in Hartford and Mike volunteered to take her out here," Brian replied, and Nick looked at him in awe. "Nick, that was so nice of you!" Emilie cried and she wrapped her arms around him. "Thanks so much!" Nick exchanged a happy smile with Brian over the top of Emilie's head. "You're welcome," Nick replied grinning. "Anyway, how about you and I take Brandy to the mall for the afternoon?" "Sure!" Emilie replied, as they stepped off the elevator. "That would be great! See you in the restaurant!" She put the key in her room door, and disappeared inside, as the door shut behind her quickly. "Nick, I think Emilie's really starting to forgive you," Brian told him, as they went into their room. "Yeah, I think so too," Nick commented. "I love you so damn much Brian. I have realized she has made me become the person I am today. Now, I'm getting sappy." "Everyone acts sappy when they are in love," Brian smiled, as he took out some clean jeans. "You want the shower first?" "Sure," Nick nodded, and he took a quick one. He changed in and walked back into the hall, to see Emilie walking out of her motel room the same time. She was wearing a flowered skirt, with a white tank top, and jean zip on cover top. She had on brown sandals and her strawberry blond hair was down in curls around her face. Her make-up was perfect and he thought she looked gorgeous. "Hi Nick!" Emilie said cheerfully, as she closed her room door. "Why are you staring at me?" "Because you look so beautiful," Nick winked at her and she blushed. "So do you," Emilie replied honestly. He was wearing jeans, and a nice, plaid shirt. "Thanks," Nick replied smiling. "So, are you hungry?" "Of course I am!" Emilie answered smiling. "I am always hungry!" Nick smiled at her and they stepped onto the elevator. "So, are you ready to see Jacquie and Susana tomorrow?" Nick asked her. "Of course I am!" Emilie replied smiling. "Anyway, Nick, that was really sweet what you did before." "Thanks Em," Nick answered. "It wasn't a big deal." "It was to me and Brandy, especially Brandy," Emilie replied, as she looked into his eyes. "Nick, I love you so much. Do you know that?" Nick's eyes looked at her surprised, and he saw tears forming in her light blue eyes again. "Em, I love you too," Nick whispered back. She started crying more, and he wrapped his arms around her again. "Em, do you want to start over?" "Nick, I want it to be just like it was before," Emilie whispered, as he tucked a stray curl behind her ear. "Me too," Nick commented. "I will never betray you again Em." "Nick, let's forget we never knew Eloisa or Sheri," Emilie replied, and they got off the elevator. Nick tooked her hand tenderly and she looked at him adoringly. They walked into the restaurant, as she saw Brandy colouring with Lance and they were singing Teletubbies together. "Sissie!" Brandy shrieked. "My Cheerios were so good and Lance knows teletubbies!" "Cool," Emilie replied, as she smiled at them. "Are you guy sure you don't have a headache?" "No, we are chill," Justin answered smiling. "You and Brandy are just alike." "I know! My big sissie is the best sissie in the whole wide world!" Brandy exclaimed brightly. "Lance, do you have a sissie?" "Yeah, I have an older sister named Stacey," Lance replied. "Cool!" Brandy replied, and she bounced off the chair. "Sissie, I got to go pea." "Okay, I'll be back," Emilie replied, and she took her to the washroom, as Nick sat down with Lance and Justin. "Everything cool again with you and Emilie?" Justin asked him, as Nick glanced through the menu. "Yeah," Nick answered. "We are doing just great." "That's good," Lance commented and Nick glanced at him for a second. "Anyway, Justin, do you we have rehearsal soon?" "Yeah," Justin answered, as he stood up. "Bye Nick. Have fun." "I will, bye," Nick replied, as he saw Emilie and Brandy coming back to the table. "Justin? Lance? Where are you going?" Brandy asked them. "We have rehearsal for the concert tonight Brandy," Lance told her, and she looked at Emilie with stars in her eyes. "Emmy? There's a concert tonight?" Brandy shrieked. "Yes Brandy," Emilie replied, as she took her hand, and pointed out the window. "See that big tourbus? That's where we sleep at night!" "No way!" Brandy cried, and she looked at in awe. "That is so cool! Does N Stink perform in concert too?" "Yeah," Justin replied. "Do you like to sing?" "Yeah! Listen..." she replied and started to sing. "Stop right now! Thank you very much! I need somebody with a human touch! Hey you! Always on the run..gotta slow it down baby and have some fun!" She gave a a little curtsey, as they all clapped for her. "You're great!" Justin told her and she beamed. "Sissie, can I go with Justin and Lance to rehearsal? I will be a good girl! I promise!" Brandy pleaded. "Well, Brandy, I don't think-," Emilie was cut off. "She'll be okay," Lance told Emilie. "Okay then," Emilie allowed her to go. "Are you guys sure?" "Of course they are!" Brandy replied, as she put one of her chubby hands in Lance's and the other in Justin's. "Bye! Anyway, Justin and Lance, my friends tell me I look like Baby Spice! What do you think?" Emilie laughed, and then rejoined Nick in the restaurant. "Where's Brandy?" Nick asked her, as she sat down. "She is driving Lance and Justin crazy at their rehearsal," Emilie answered, as the waitress set a coffee down in front of her. "Thanks!" She looked at Nick and he smiled..."Stop right now! Thank you very much!" Brandy sang at the 'N Sync rehearsal at the Hartford Civic Center. "Joey sing!" "Yeah, Joey!" JC teased him. Emilie's little sister Brandy was a riot and she danced around full of childhood energy. The cherographer had given up trying to rehearse because she was distracting them all too much. The cherographer didn't seem to care too much though. "Come on Joey, you look just like Scary Spice!" Chris teased him. "Chris? Have come you braids in your hair?" Brandy asked him, as she paused between her dancing. "Because, I like them," Chris replied and Brandy thought for a moment. "I am going to wear my hair in braids to the concert tonight?!" Brandy cried. "Wouldn't that be cool?" "Yeah, really cool!" Justin chimed in and she started dancing again, as he saw Britney appear on stage with her dancers. "Who's this cutie patootie?" Tanya asked Britney. "Maybe Chris' little sister," answered Britney. "Hi Britney!" Brandy sang out to her. "See Chris? I want to wear my hair like Britney's! Britney, you are too cool!" "Thanks," Britney answered smiling. "Are you Chris' sister Emily?" "No!" Brandy giggled."I'm Emilie's sister Brandy!" "Oh!" Britney replied confused. "Why are you here and not with Emilie?" "I'm here with my boyfriend Justin," Brandy answered confidently. "You see, Aaron and I haven't seen each other is such a long time, so I had to find a boyfriend while Aaron is at home and Justin is just so cute! Oh no, did he hear me? How awful! Oprah would be so mad at me!" "You watch Oprah?" Charissa asked her and Brandy nodded proudly. "That's how I know you were Britney because I saw you on there!" Brandy answered smiling. "Justin, are you ready to go shopping?" "Yeah," Justin replied, and she looked at Britney. "He's going to buy me a teletubby, right?" Brandy asked him and he nodded. "Britney, are you in concert with N Stink and BSB?" "Yeah!" Britney laughed. "Omigoodness! I have to get a new outfit, so Sissie and I can look cool at the concert!" Brandy told her. "Come on Justin! Bye Britney!" She grabbed Justin's hand and dragged him off stage. "Brandy, do you want us to come to?" Joey asked her and she looked at him with wide eyes. "Yes! I need some men to carry my bags!" she answered. "But, Justin is my boyfriend remember." "What about Aaron?" Lance asked her. "He is going to be with me at Darien Lake, so Justin, I am sorry to break your heart, but Aaron and I are going to be boyfriend and girlfriend when I go to Darien Lake okay?" Brandy explained to him and they all started laughing. "Okay, but I am going to be very sad," Justin told her and she shrugged. She saw the snow white limo, and ran ahead to it quickly. "Justin, what are all the fans going to say when they find out you have a girlfriend?" JC teased him. "You guys are wrecked," Justin replied, but they all laughed. Brandy waited as the limo driver opened the door, and she bounced into the lumo. "Guys!" she cried from inside. "Come on!" "We're coming!" Lance told her, and Joey, Justin, JC, and Lance climbed into the limo. Brandy insisted she sit beside Justin and they were off towards the Hartford Mall....Next: Chapter 32 |
