| Chapter Twenty I hung up with him after talking a few more minutes and decided to call Joey and get his point of view before I called Kevin back. "Hello?" He answered sounding out of breath. "Joey? What's wrong?" I asked worredly. "Hey babe, nothings wrong, we just came off stage." He laughed. "How are you?" "Oh I completely lost track of time, do you want me to call back later?" "No it's ok, is something wrong? You sound funny." "Everything is ok, I just wanted your opinion on something." I took a breath and went on. "The Backstreet Boys have asked me to help them with a video and my dad offered to let them stay here since the video is being shot in Santa Barbara and they haven't been able to find any rooms there." "Whoa baby, slow down take a breath. They are pretty nice guys, we've always gotten along great. You will be ok with them there." "But I don't know them, I don't know how I feel about having strangers in my home." "Well if you are calling for my opinion then you must be considering it right?" "Right, and I called my dad and he says they are good guys and it won't be a problem." "Then what are you worried about?" "I don't know, nothing I guess." I said laughing and realizing how ridiculous I was sounding. "It will be fine, as long as no one tries to sleep on my side of the bed." He laughed. "Joe that's not funny, you know I would never do that." "I'm kidding. You need to calm down, why don't you go shopping or something. When are they coming?" "Tomorrow, I have to call Kevin back actually and let him know it's ok." "Ok well I'll try to call you later, but if I don't then tomorrow for sure ok?" "Ok, thanks babe, love ya." "Love you too, and don't worry ok?" "I won't. Bye" "Yes you will, bye bye." I smiled as I hung up and called Kevin back to let him know it was ok. I gave him directions to the house and settled in for a quiet evening at home. The next day I took Joey's advice and went out shopping. I picked up a few gifts for him and the guys, and a few new things for the house. When I got home there were two large suv's sitting in my driveway. I stepped out of the car and got my things from the trunk. As I was juggling everything and trying to fish my keys out someone came up and grabbed some of the bags from me. I turned and saw an unfamiliar face. "Hello, I'm Kevin. I'm looking for Tiffany?" "Hello Kevin, it's nice to meet you. I'm Tiffany." I smiled extending my hand. He took it looking somewhat confused. "You are Tiffany?" "Yes why?" "I'm sorry I was just expecting someone older. You don't see too many young people directing music videos." He smiled sheepishly and turned to walk to the house with me. "Is my age going to be a problem?" I asked smiling. I had faced this problem before and always come out on top. "It's not like you are much older than me, and you have travelled all over the world performing for thousands." "No, it's not a problem. I'm sorry if I offended you." |
