After the Boys heard the news, and were allowed out of the room, Lou took them back to the hotel. There was no where for them to go. They couldnt go to the hospital, because Howie died, they couldnt go home, because the police wouldnt let them, so they had no choice but to return back to their hotel.
The trip back was long and silent, and seem to go on for hours.
As they arrived back at the hotel, Kevin went straight to the bar. He couldnt handle all this. He ordered a few drinks that night, and got himself pretty drunk, he couldnt handle all the commotion. Luckily, his four security guards where there with him, and they helped him back up to his room after he had too much to drink. Brian and his four guards went to the local Bball court. Brian needed time to think about things, and to realize exactly what happened that night. While playing Bball, he sat down on the court, and for the first time in awhile, cried. Cried about the death of Howie, Joey, and even Leigh Anne.
Back at the Hotel, AJ took Karine to the hot tub, to help her try to relax, and calm her down. Both were pretty silent, but AJ still tried his best no matter what. While in the hot tub, Karine started to talk.
"AJ, Im soo glad that wasnt you up there, but, I feel really bad and upset it happened to D!" Karine said.
"K, Im really upset it happened to D too... he was my best friend in the band!" AJ said. AJ kissed the top of Karines head, while she sat closely beside him, still thinking about that night.
"I really really need to get that picture out of my head!" Karine said, referring to the thought of what she had seen that night.
"Well.. I know this totally seems like the most innappropriate time, but I do know a method that can relieve your mind to stop thinking about that..." AJ said. AJ leaned in and started to kiss Karine.
"Alex! How can you think of that at a time like this..." Karine said, and then AJ began to kiss her again, slowly pulling her closer to him. Karine didnt pull away this time, and instead, decided to try AJ's method of taking her mind off of the SKydome incident. AJ turned his body around to face Karine. Karine moved her fingers up and down AJ's shoulders, down his arms, and up his back, then caressed his chest. Karine was wearing a yellow bikini with boy bottoms. AJ slowly slid the straps off her shoulders, kissing her shoulder and the strap fell to her side. He moved his hands to her back, where he tried to undo her top, and eventually undid it. Karines bikini top landed in the water. AJ slowly moved his hands down to her bikini shorts, and slowly removed them from her. AJ kissed Karine on her neck, in the place that she loves most to be kissed, the place that drives her crazy, and AJ knew it. Karine moved her hands down his back and removed AJ's purple swimming trunks.
AJ moved across the hottub where a good seat was, and pulled Karine over to him, sitting her ontop of him. Karine wrapped her legs around AJ's waist, and her arms around his shoulders. Making love to AJ felt soo good to Karine. It took her mind off of the events which happened in the past few days, and it made her feel happier than shes ever felt lately. Karine let out soft moans, and louder ones when AJ was doing something she liked. AJ, on the other hand, let out these manly grunts whenever a wave of excitement went through him.
After 40 minutes of making love in the hot tub, AJ and Karine put their bathingsuits on, got out of the hot tub, and put their robes on. They headed back up to their room, and went to bed since it was late.
Kevin planned for everyone to get together later that evening, around 8pm, to talk about the circumstances, events and other things that have been happening, and what they should do.
Between breakfast and 8pm, the boys were free to do what they wanted. Brian and Kevin took off with Chris and JC, to go to the movies, then hung out around Toronto, then played some basketball.
Nick took Tara to the Eatons Centre Mall. While shopping, he bought tons of clothes, for both her and him, and shoes, since he loves shopping for shoes.
While in the mall, Nick eyed a jewellry store, and since he loves shopping for jewellry also, he led Tara there. Nick and Tara slowly walked along the glass encased shelves of jewellry, looking at bracelets, necklaces, and rings. Nick grabbed Taras hand and led her over to the special case, which was full of engagement rings.
"Tara... if you were to pick one of these that you liked the most.. which one would it be?" Nick asked, in a jokingly manner. Tara looked at all the rings, while blushing, and then pointed out a beautiful small gold ring with two heartshaped diamonds in it.
Nick waved the saleswoman over, and asked to see the ring.
"What are you doing?" Tara asked.
"Im going to see if it fits!" Nick said. Nick took the ring from the lady, and then placed it on Taras finger.
"It fits!" Nick said, and then he smiled at Tara, who was soo confused.
"Tara, I know this is a realy really crazy way of doing this, but I really love you, and I cant live my life without you! The past week, and everything thats happened, its REALLY made me think of everything in my life, and how much you really mean to me. You mean the world to me, Tara! Will you marry me?" Nick asked, getting down on one knee, and looking at her in the eyes, while caressing her finger where the ring was.
"I love you too, Nick!!!! and yes I'll marry you!!!" Tara said, as she started to cry happy tears. Nick purchased the ring, and then the lady congratulated them. By this time, an audience of about 20 people had formed around them, watching them, and clapped as Nick and Tara kissed.
