*Chapter 7*
"You guys know that we love you with all of our hearts." Lori started.
"Uh, oh." AJ said.
"But there are something’s that we have been thinking about for awhile now." She continued. "Casey take it away."
"Brian, I know that you are a little shy about showing off your stomach, but you're killing the fans. They really want to see those abs of yours. So could you just try and lift that shirt of yours every once in awhile." Casey said.
"Ok, I'll try." He said, looking shocked at what she said.
"Now AJ, why don't you smile in photo shoots? I love it when you smile and so do other's. Just please please smile once for me."
"All right, if it makes you happy." AJ answered.
"It would."
"Should I smile like this?" He flashed a total fake smile.
"Sure."
"Yeah, my turn." I said. "Kev, I know you don't show off your stomach or smile a lot either, but that's ok if you don't wanna. I just really wanted to ask all 3 of you about a very very cheesy song entitled, "All I Have To Give Part 2." Now Brian you said that you wanted a smart, serious girl. Well, with Casey smart really isn't her thing, and serious, not often. AJ, you said that you wanted a girl that would let you do everything for her. Lori, does he do everything for you?"
"Yeah." She answered.
"And the whole thing about him making it happen I don't want to get into."
"Oh, could I take this one?" Casey asked.
"Sure."
"Kev, you said you like the type of girl who could love you for you. The type of girl that you could hold in your arms and give her all you have to give. Manda, does he give you all he has to give?"
"Oh yeah, you know it."
~~~~~~~~~~~
"Okey dokey let's have one of the guys share. Brian go."
"K, mine would have to be Christmas in 1997. It was the most interesting holiday I've ever had..."
~~~~~~~~~~~
"Guys do we really have to fly?" Casey asked with a worried look on her face.
"For the 5th time, yes." I said.
"Isn't it sweet that the 2 of them share the same fear?" Kevin asked with his arm around me.
"I guess, expect when I have to fly with them." Our flight was ready to board so we got on. The 4 of us sat in the same row with Kevin on the outside and Brian by the window.
"Now, are the 2 of you going to be ok?" I asked.
"Hopefully." Brian said. The flight was fine, and Brian and Casey were ok.
"Was that so bad?" Kevin asked.
"It could have been worse." Casey said.
"Whose picking us up?" Brian asked.
"Mike." I answered. Then he must have saw us, because there he was.
"Hi." I said giving him a hug. "I missed you so much."
"I missed you too." He then said hi to Casey, Brian and Kevin. We got in his car and drove to my parents house. Casey's family and mine were celebrating Christmas together on Christmas Eve. It was so nice seeing my family, and Casey's again. I grew up with Casey's and Brian's moms being like 2nd and 3rd mothers to me. We had fun catching up with our families. We left around 11:30, and Casey's sister, Claire, drove us to the hotel. That night Casey and I shared a room, (with 2 beds of course) since all of us were too tired to move our stuff after we put it down.
*Chapter 8*
*The next day*
I got up around 10:45 finding Casey was already up.
"Hey." I said trying to wake up.
"Oh, hi. I didn't see that you woke up."
"Are the guys up?"
"Don't know, let's go check." She knocked on the door joining the 2 rooms. No one answered, so she opened it. They were still sleeping.
"Awe, aren't they so cute." I said.
"Well, that won't last for to long." She took one of the pillows off Brian's bed, and threw it at me.
"It seems like I'm always doing this to him." I whispered. We raised the pillows and were ready to wake then up when we got hit instead. Apparently the guys were up and planed this. Like the mature adults that we were Casey and I hit them back, and started a pillow fight. It ended in a draw in both fights.
"So what should we do till we have to be at your parents house ?" Casey asked.
"We could swim for a while." I suggested.
"OK, you guys change and meet us back in here." Brian said. So we left, changed, and came back.
"Let's go." Kevin said when we got in their room. We walked down to the pool to find no one there. We swam for about an hour, doing nothing important. After we got upstairs, we didn't know what to do.
"Now what?" Brian asked.
"Let's just watch T.V till we can think of something. We do have like 4 hours to do nothing."
"Wait, isn't' that 3 hours since it takes you two about an hour to get ready." Brian commented.
"Oh shut up!" I shouted, joking of course.
"Hey, even if they take that long, they do look good when their ready." Kevin added.
"Thank you, Kev." Casey said. Then she got up and looked for something.
"Ummm... Case, what are you doing?" I asked.
"I'm hungry, I need food. Ha! I found some." She pulled out a bag of popcorn, put it in the microwave, and came back when it was done.
"Amanda, open you mouth." She said while motioning that she was going to throw the popcorn at me. So I did, and she missed.
"Oh, your throw sucked." I said, "Let me try." So I threw the kernel at her, and got it in her mouth. We sat there throwing popcorn for a while till the bag ran out. Then Casey found another one, so the fun continued. After that we just watched T.V for an hour.
"We should start getting ready." Brian said.
"Oh my god," Casey exclaimed, "I still have to take a shower."
"So do I." I said. We exchaned quick glances then took off for our room.
I could hear Brian and Kevin making comments as we dashed for the bathroom.
"And their off, Amanda's in the lead as they round the first corner." Kevin started.
"But wait, Casey takes the lead in the home stretch, but with Amanda close on her heals. Casey pulls a bit ahead and wins by a hair." Brian finished.
"Ha! You two are so funny." I shouted as I went to close the door between the 2 rooms. It took Casey about 15 minutes to take her shower.
"I hope there's water left for me." I said as I walked in the bathroom.
The two of us were ready before the guys, which confused us. We had to do our hair, put on our makeup and get dressed, while the guys had to get dressed. Casey and I promised each other that we wouldn't let them hear the end of it.
"What took you 2 so long?" Casey asked with a smile when they got in our room.
"Aw hush." Kevin answered. We walked to the lobby where there was a cab so we go in and went to Brian's parents house. We had so much fun there. Nothing too exciting happened, just the usual get together stuff. When we got to the hotel, we decided to split up into the 2 rooms. Kevin and I were in me and Casey's room. We didn't really talk, we just enjoyed our time together. At first we planed to go back to our original arrangements before we fell asleep, but that didn't happen because I fell asleep while
Kevin was playing with my hair.
I woke up to the phone ringing. Since the phone was right there, I got it.
"Hello?" I said in a groggy voice.
"Mornin'." answered a familiar peppy voice.
"Casey, what do you want?"
"We just figured that this would be the easiest way to wake you 2 up."
"It worked." As I said this I could tell that Kevin was up too.
"OK, maybe we can get off the phone and just open the door."
"All right, bye." I opened the door, and we started to talk again.
"We should actually do something today." Kevin said.
"Sounds good, but what?" Brian said looking at me.
"What? Why are you looking at me?"
"Maybe you had an idea." He answered.
"Well, I was thinking that we could go around the old neighborhood, or something."
"We could do that," Casey said, "but I need something to eat first."
"You always need to eat." I said rolling my eyes, since it's true
We left to get dressed, and then we got breakfast. We had a pretty good time remembering things that happened back in the day. The flight home was fine, Casey and Brian were still scared, but that will never change.
~~~~~~~~~~
"Holly, go 'head." Brian said.
"OK, well, huh, mine would have to be when we got to be in one of your videos. That was fun, even thought we didn't do much."
"You were in a video?" Kim asked surprised.
"Yeah, they filmed it before you and Nick hooked up. You can guess it was a little part." Lori answered.
