CHAPTER FIVE

"Really? He kissed you?" Vic asked in disbelief.

"Yeah! He was so sweet, so courteous, so sexy!" I said while holding on to my pillow tightly. "He's perfect!" I plopped down rather hard onto Vic’s futon, which became my bed when I visited.

"You that sure? Wow," she said slowly. "So when's your next date?" she added, with a little more liveliness.

"We're gonna go to the beach next Wednesday at 10," I said trying to hold back my excitement.

"WOW! Go get some!" Vic said playfully.

"I will baby, I will." I shot her a mischievous grin. It didn't seem like we were going to get much work done tonight.

After pulling one of the hardest all nighters in my history, we finally got 10 pages of wonderful Brit Lit finished at around 4:30. By that point, I was pumped up and couldn't go to sleep. So I talked Vic's ear off. About anything and everything, but mostly about Sean. It was only Tuesday and our date was a whole day away.

"But it's a day away!" I whined, scrunching my face.

"So?" Vic said apathetically. She smirked at me. I pretended to be hurt. "What??" she asked. "Oh come on. I know you can wait. He’s just a guy after all." I smiled, knowing she had seen through my act. "Why don't we get showered and dressed and go out for breakfast?" she suggested thoughtfully.

"Sounds good to me," I said, starving.

She slapped my arm and said, "Good. How does pancakes sound?"

"But I thought that with this change of management we'd be able to make more of our own decisions!" a very peeved AJ McLean said, frustrated. "We moved all the way over to Cali from Florida, and still nothings changed!"

"Yeah, Bone’s right. They told us over at The Firm that we'd be like free agents. I think we've been through enough of this crap, especially with TransCon," Nick agreed.

"Stop worrying guys, I'll call up Steve in the morning. I'm sure there’s a logical explanation for the sudden change," Kevin replied matter of factly.

"You guys just be sure to be at the photo shoot by 12 on Wednesday."

"Yeah, sure sure Kevy," AJ replied while admiring one of his many tattoos. "Wait, Wednesday?" he asked, concerned. "I'm busy Wednesday."

"You've gotta be there Bone," Kevin pointed out. "It's a big photo shoot."

"We'll all be there," Howie added.

"Yup!" Brian agreed.

AJ nodded his head reluctantly, complying with Kevin’s wishes.
