The five guys and the woman just stared at her, the woman showing some signs of Gina being familiar to her as well. All five of the guys were dressed in either GAP, Tommy Hilfiger or Calvin Kline, wearing baseball caps and sunglasses and the woman was dressed professionally in a suit with her blonde hair pulled back into a chignon.
Mrs. Brown smiled at Gina. "It's okay Gina, what did you need?"
"I finally finished the last verse for 'TLAL' and I was wondering if I could borrow your tape recorder to record it, 'Playa', 'CGEOY', 'DTY', 'SSOH', 'LN', 'CHW', 'GRWI', 'TIWIG', and 'BIY'," Gina said quickly, trying to disguise her curiosity as to why five guys who looked to range between their late teens and late twenties were doing in her all-girls, private high school.
Mrs. Brown smiled at her. "That's great! How long have you been working on 'TLAL' now?"
Gina thought for a second. "About a week or so. Me and Nicole are gonna practice and make it part of our repertoire at the club."
"Nicole and I," Mrs. Brown corrected absently. She got up and grabbed the tape recorder off her desk and handed it to Gina. "Here, but when you finish would you drop it and the tape off here so I can listen to it?"
Gina grinned. "Sure, I'll bring it down when I'm done. By the way, have you seen Caitlin's practice room recently?"
"No, why?"
"She added more pictures of *N Sync....or specifically, Justin Timberlake. I swear she's obsessed with him," Gina said, laughing slightly.
"More? That room's gonna be wall-to-wall by th end of the year," Mrs. Brown laughed along with Gina.
The five guys straightened up as Gina mentioned '*N Sync', one in particular with a Cheshire Cat grin on his face. Gina gave him a weird look, then turned back to Mrs. Brown. "I'm gonna go work on these now, and I'll drop them off before the end of the period."
"All right Gina," Mrs. Brown told her.
Gina walked out the door back to her practice room, wondering what was going on in Mrs. Brown's office right now.
