“Oh crap!! I don’t believe it. Not again” shouted as she jumped out of bed. She scrambled to the bathroom and got dressed in such a hurry that she forgot to put on her tie and name badge. She had to skip breakfast again for the 3rd time that week.
Just as she got to the front door pulled up in the car.
“God, you look awake!” she laughed. “Another late night?”
“Not really, I was in at 1” said getting into the car. “Do we have to listen to this, this early?” she asked referring to the McFly CD that was blaring out of the radio.
“If you don’t like it, you can always walk and be late for work again!” she replied sarcastically. “Besides they’re going to be there tonight. They’re touring with Busted so you have to learn the words” she smiled
“Dude, we have hundreds of acts a week in work and I don’t know their songs so why do I have to know these?” “’Cus these dudes are hott and every1 knows McFly. Where you working tonight?”
“Backstage dude. I hate it there. The “Stars” are such divas. And if those little mites think they’re bossing me about tonight, I’ll smack um”>br> “Oh relax. They’re supposed to be really nice. I’m Backstage as well so u can always come and find me if u want to chat. But I don’t want a punch”
laughed.
They arrived at work just in time. As stopped the car their boss got out of the car behind them.
“Come along ladies. We have very important people coming today” He said clapping his hands at them.
“Oh yeah! , who’s here tonight then?” asked
“Oh I don’t know, just get ya asses inside. Oh and , where’s your tie?”

“Send me home with pay?” she said
“Sorry, no, no. Now get in there. If anyone asks you’re new and we haven’t had you a nametag yet. It’ll be on your Pass anyway”
“Yes Boss” she smiled saluting him and marching away with in toe.
When they were inside, went to get another tie and went to put their bags in her locker.
They went to the canteen for breakfast before they stared, hopefully it would be empty and they wouldn’t be spotted. Just as they got to the doors they heard a voice behind them. They turned around to see it was their supervisor.
“Where do you think you’re going?” she said
“Erm … “said going red. Even at 21 she couldn’t lie her way out of a wet paper bag.
“We’re looking for those McFly lads. We were told they were in here” covered.
“They’re not here yet but they will be in 5 minutes and I want you two to meet them at the entrance please. Now go!” she ordered.

Now, at 21, they worked together in the International Arena in Cardiff. They hated the hours but loved getting to meet all the stars. The pay wasn’t bad either.
They made their way to the back entrance to wait for the McFly boys.
was a huge fan and loved their music but knew that if it weren’t for she’d never have heard of them.
As they opened the door a bus pulled up outside and 4 lads got off the bus. 3 of them looked like zombies but there was 1 who was jumping around like he had a spring up his ass. As there were no fans outside the arena they made their way straight over to the door.
“Oh my god, I can’t believe I’m about to meet McFly” said .
Chapter 2
As the band got closer to the doors was almost having a panic attack.
“ chill dude. I think it’s best if I do the talking.” Said
“Yeah I think you should. Remember what happened when I spoke Tom DeLonge? I almost got fired” she laughed. As she laughed looked up and saw her, Wow he though to himself, she’s fit. The sight of had woke him up and he was jumping around with .
“Hey there. Welcome to the CIA” said extending her arm to shake ’s hand.
“Dude, can we do this later? I need to wake up” he said walking past her. The others followed suit.
“Well there’s gratitude for you” said loud enough for them to hear. “I should have stayed in bed this morning”

“Ok” she smiled “And I’m ”. With that , and got up and did the same. Then they greeted .
As they kissed her she was turning a shade of crimson. Once everyone had been introduced the atmosphere was slightly more relaxed although was still very excited about being in the same room as her idols.
“Ok, so what’s first?” asked , sparking suspicion with the other 3 that he had the hots for her.
“Well” took over, knowing that was ’s favourite and that she had gone a worrying shade of white.
“You do a sound check at 3 til 4.30 then you’ll have some of the disgusting food from our revolting canteen and the show starts at 7. You go on until 8 then Busted take over and we get you out of here as soon as you get off stage while all the fans are still in the building.” She read from her clipboard.
“Ok. Well we’re growing lads and we’re hungry now. What can u suggest?” asked with a cheeky grin.
“Erm, Well I would suggest eating the cheese and pickle sandwiches that our lovely catering department have done for you” she replied in a hostess kind of voice.
They turned around to see the table full of repulsive looking sandwiches. “Or I can send over to Pizza Hut for you.” she smiled.
“Now that’s more like it” said . “And we don’t want this healthy crap. A nice greasy pizza”
“Ok Hold on” said as she walked out of the room. She came back in with a petite girl. .
“Every1 this is , this is McFly” introduced.

“Well it’s more what you can do for these hungry lil’ lads. They want pizza from Pizza Hut!” she hinted.
“Ok. What shall I get?”
“Erm Pizza!” said sarcastically. punched him on the arm.
“Watch it boy!” he laughed. “Sorry about him. They don’t teach manners in . But then again, they don’t see many beautiful girls in either” he gave her a smile.
“It’s ok. I’ve had worse and I know how to control them” answered giving a seductive look.
“Right, easy you two” interrupted. “We don’t wanna throw up! Now, let’s talk pizza”

and had gone to make sure the stage was set up ready for the sound check which left the boys alone in their dressing room.
“Dudes that ’s a bit of alright” said making himself comfortable.
“I knew you had something going for her” laughed. “She’s nice but that ’s proper”
“Oh I dunno dude. , now that’s proper” said .
“Is that all you guys think about?” asked . With that another girl walked through the door.

“Ok, well it was nice meeting you all.” She said as she left
“Dudes, I think I’m in love” said as he flopped onto the sofa landing on ’s lap.
“Whoa, I didn’t think you felt that way about me dude!” joked .
“Not you, you rat, ” he said smacking around the head.
“You’re always in love man and it never lasts past the 1st date” laughed .
“Shut it” jumped over and it soon turned in to a huge pile on fight with them all joining in.

and were walking down the corridor when they heard the commotion coming from the dressing room.
“My god, they are such kids. And that s an arrogant asshole” complained .
“Yeah but ’s dreamy” said wondering off into land.
“ , Focus!” shouted . “We have a job to do”
“Alright miss I-Hate-McFly. Oh, and did u see the way that was looking at you? He likes you”
“Oh , shut up. You know would go nuts if we tried hitting on them. Not that I want to hit on him. I mean he’s good looking and stuff but nothing special. Well he is but… oh, shut up ”
“Ha, you like him as well,” whispered .
“Look, let’s just keep it professional yeah. And stop staring at , you’re gonna freak him out.” joked
“Oh god was it that obvious?” asked getting all panicky.
“I’m just messing dude. Lighten up”
“Oh, you cow,” said as they walked into the dressing room to find a pile of 4 lads on the floor.
“ , dude. Watch where you’re putting your hands man!” shouted
“Well I guess you have no chance hun. I think he might he gay” whispered .

“Oh, sorry girls” said as they all got off each other and sat on the sofas.
“Erm, we’re women if you don’t mind young boy” said sarcastically. laughed and gave a smile. She couldn’t help but smile back.
“Anyway, now you have finished. We’ve come to tell you that there’s been a slight mis-hap.” Said in a serious tone, which was something she didn’t usually do.
“What is it? Nothing serious I hope” said in the same tone.
“Well, it’s not” she said and the boys let out a sigh of relief “As long as you can play without ” she continued.
“WHAT?” shouted “Why? What’s happened?”
“Well, it seems that your manager thought was bringing it and thought your manager was bringing it, so no-one has brought it.”
“NNNNNNOOOOOOOO” shouted falling to his knees putting his head in his hands. “WHY GOD, WHY?” giggled and turned to look at her.
“Well what are we supposed to do now?” asked
“Well there are 3 options.” said , once again taking charge. “You either go on less, which I personally don’t think the fans would be too happy about, use Busted’s or can go home and get hers”
“Can I?” asked
“You play ?” asked rising from his knees.
“Well kind of. I’m having lessons”
“Wicked. So what can you play?” asked intrigued that his crush played his instrument.
“Erm, . I think we have bigger problems than you getting into her knickers,” shouted .
wanted the floor to open up and swallow her.
“ !! There was no need for that. He was only being nice,” said noticing the expression on ’s face. “He’s an idiot, ignore him,” he said to .
“Sorry. I was out of order but he does like you, don’t you ?” went beetroot red, as did .
“Look, let’s stick to the subject” said sternly. “I think should go home and get her and I’ll stay here to keep you lot under control”
“That sounds like a plan,” said with the thought of controlling him sticking firm in his mind.
“Right, , Go!” said pointing toward the door.
was happy to leave as she was extremely embarrassed by what had said.
“Yeah and where’s with my Pizza?” asked .
“I think we should make you starve for that little out burst. There was no need for it. Everyone was worried about the but there was no need to take it out on . He was only trying to chat her up. It takes a lot of courage for him to talk to a fit bird and you know that” said
“Hold on, you DO like ?” asked looking at .
“Err... well... yeah!” said looking embarrassed.
“Really?” said deep in thought.
“Why?” asked getting closer to her. “What do you know that we don’t?”
“Nothing” replied . As she said this she looked into ’s eyes and the sudden urge to kiss him came over her.
“Erm, well I have stuff to do. I’ll see where is with you pizza,” she said as she hastily left the room.
“What was all that about?” said , sitting down realising he’d been rejected.
“Maybe you should shower . You smell!” said turning his nose up at his pal.

“It’s alright. What’s up ? You look like you’ve just seem a ghost”
“Nothin. Well yeah it’s something” She said taking a seat. “I’ve worked here now for like 3 years and I’ve met loads of hot stars but I’ve never had the urge to kiss any of them”
“Whoa, hold on” said sitting beside her “Who’d you wanna kiss? 1 of the McFly lads?”
“Yeah” said looking worried. “Trouble is, it’s something I could loose my job over. And he’s like 3 years younger than me, which I don’t mind. God, what am I saying?”
“ , relax. It’s just a crush. Just act natural around him, he’ll never know and you’ll never see him again. Well until the next time the perform here” she laughed
“You’re right. I’m a grown woman. I can control myself.” She stood up and brushed off her skirt. “Come on , they’re getting hungry”
As they got closer to the dressing room they could hear a conversation that the boys were having.
“Dude, gets hotter every time I see her”
“Just tell her man. You’ll never see her after tomorrow night. Tell her you like her, kiss her, get her number and promise to keep in contact then never ring her” said one.
“I can’t do that dude. She seems really nice. And besides you can tell she’s older than me. She’ll never go for it,” said another.
“Well. I think likes me anyways. She’s gone all the way home to get her for me to use. I think I’ll tell her I like her and see what she says. I’ve been shot down before. I can handle it” he laughed. instantly knew that that was but she couldn’t tell who the others were.
“Here we are boys, 1 pizza with everything, 1 ham and mushroom, 1 chicken and sweet corn and 1 pepperoni.” said putting the boxes on the table. “And just for good measures I got a bag of chips and 4 cans of coke” she smiled.
“Now that’s service,” said .
“Yeah but not fast service” said digging in “This is cold”
“ , just eat it and keep it zipped,” said in ’s defence.
“Aaww, my hero” laughed as she looked at .
saw the way that was looking at .
“Erm, . Can I see you outside for a sec?” she asked.
“Ok” they walked out of the dressing room and walked slightly further down the hall, out of the boys earshot.
“Did you see the way he was looking at you?”
finally said.
“Who? ?” asked looking flattered
“Erm yeah! He was making it so obvious. I think you should keep your distance a lil bit. If finds out, he’ll hit the roof.” said suddenly turning professional.
“So what about you and that ? You have the hots for him!” said . As the words left her mouth walked round the corner.
“What? has a crush on ? Why didn’t you tell me you lil witch?” she joked.
“Oh God!” said “listen you, just don’t say anything ok!” she warned . “And you cool down in front of . We know you’re a natural flirt but tone it down a lil. Now let’s get that in there” she said walking back towards the room.
“Ok, boys. No need to panic. to the rescue.” said as they entered.
practically threw his pizza at and jumped over the back of the chair. “Lets see, let’s see” he shouted as excited as a little boy on Xmas morning.
“Ok, I have to warn you though, it’s not exactly a boy’s ” laughed as she unclipped the case.
“WOW!!” said as him Silver covered in graffiti “Dude, this is awesome”
“Thanks” she replied as strummed out the chords for 5 Colours in her hair.
“Oh, I’m gonna rock with this tonight. Thank you.” He said kissing her on the cheek and giving her a giant hug.
“You know, she may never get that back” said to . “He’s never been this excited about a before” laughed. Then she suddenly realised that the voice she had heard talking about her was .
She made her excuses, which weren’t that good, and left.
She went straight to the staff room and sat at the coffee table to think things over.
She liked and liked her. She’d never been in this situation with a star before.
She’d been in the situation in clubs and stuff and she knew how to rise to the occasion, but never with a star. How was she to react? This was defiantly a girly chat dilemma. She picked up the phone and paged through to the McFly dressing room.

“Don’t worry, he wont” said taking the opportunity to hug .
, although she didn’t want to, pulled away.
“I have to find .” She walked over to “Promise me you won’t tell her”
“Ok, I promise” he said. “Oh, but if I were to kinda hint that I knew, do you think she’d be up for it?”
“I don’t know but that’s just another way of telling her. And you promised you wouldn’t tell her”
“Ok” he sighed as left the room.
“Way-hey dude” said jumping over him “So watcha gonna do now? You know she likes you so why not make ya move?” coughed.
“I don’t know what you’re coughing for missy” said on a roll, “We all know that you want a bit of over there”
“Maybe I do, maybe I don’t” she teased “but 1 thing’s for sure. It’s not you I like”

“Every1 this is ” said .

“Yeah dude. Where we going?” asked .
“Wetherspoons” and said in chorus.

When she came back she looked totally different. She was wearing a pair of blue kick flare trousers, a white strappy top and a pair of white trainers. “You ready then?” she asked.
“I’m not going out with you dressed like that and me dressed like this” said .
“I’ll be right back” she ran out of the room toward the staff room where she changed into a pink top and white 3 quarter trousers. “Now I’m ready” she said when she came back in.
’s eyes almost popped out of his head “wow!” he said as he turned his head into ’s chest.
“You 2 go. I’m not going. I’m going to stay here and keep company” said who was getting rather friendly with in the corner of the room. “Besides, I’ll have to cover for you when you’re late back” she laughed.
“Oh, don’t I have the best lil sis in the world” laughed as she blew her a kiss. “Let’s go . The bar awaits us"

“We don’t have hundreds of girls wanting to do naughty things to us” said . “Catch ya later”
Chapter 6
“Ok. So you like , likes you. I can’t see a problem” said over their meal of steak and chips. They’d also had, maybe one too many to drink for a lunchtime.
“What do you mean you can’t see a problem?” asked “For a start, he’s famous. He’s 3 years younger than me and he’s on tour all the time”
“Yeah, and?” asked taking another mouthful of vodka and coke. “What’s the problem dude?”
“Are you just not listening to me?”
“Look, lighten up. Yeah he’s famous, so what? He’s still a hott lad. And its not like you have to marry him is it?”
“I suppose” said
“Oh, I have an idea. Why don’t we invite them round to yours tonight for a bit of a party?”
“Yeah I’m sure we could” said sarcastically. “What would we say? Oh hey McFly, we’re having a party tonight and was wondering if you’d come”
“Exactly” said taking ’s comment seriously.
“ , we can’t just invite famous people round for a party. Besides, why do we have to use my place? Why not yours?”
“Just sshh. It’s sorted. I’ll ask them when we get back”
“You’re not serious?” asked when she saw the expression on ’s face.
“Deadly serious” replied. “We’ll leave when they go on stage, go home and get changed. I’ll ring the party planners down the bay and ask them to decorate…” and off she went into land again.
“Right. Now let’s get back to work” said when had finally filled her in on the party details and convinced her it was a good idea.
“Hold on. We can’t just tell them we’re having a party for no reason. What can we say it’s for?”
“Ain’t it your birthday in a few days? We could say that it’s an early birthday party cus you’re away. Sounds like a good enough excuse. Just tell um you're visiting family in London or something”
“Ok. Now let's go. We’re already half hour late”
When they got back they went to the dressing room first to make sure that hadn’t been to look for them.
“Where the hell have you two been?” asked
“Nowhere. We’ve been discussing birthday party arrangements, haven’t we ?” said
“Erm…” said looking at . She couldn’t just invite them over to her house. “I dunno if what we decided was such a good idea ”
“What did you decide?” asked being nosey.
“Well ’s birthday’s in 5 days and she’s going to be in London visiting relatives so I thought we could have a party at her place tonight.” She said
“Well, I think that’s a good idea, seeing as you're not going to be here to spend it with ya friends” said
“That’s what I said. Hey. Seeing as you guys are here again tomorrow maybe you’d want to drop by for a while” subtly dropped the invitation.
“I can’t see why not” said “But who’s gonna be there? We don’t want to spoil things by having a load of lil girls screaming at us”
“Well, there’s only gonna be us lot really.”
“Where’s ?” asked as she scanned the room.
“She’s gone home” said
“Home? Are you sure?” looked concerned.
“Yeah there was a phone call for her. Something about her Gran so she left”
“Her Gran? Well what was it?” said panicking.
“I dunno but it sounded pretty serious” answered forgetting that and were sisters.
“Crap!! I better go. I’ll let you know what’s happening” she said running out of the room and down the corridor. got up and chased after her. He caught up with her as she was about to leave.
“ !” She stopped. He walked over to her and gave her a hug. “ made it sound worse than it was.
had a phone call from your mother. She got off the phone and said. It's my Gran, I have to go. She didn’t say anything had happened to her. Try not to worry too much until you know anything for sure.” He gave her a sexy smile that made her feel safe.
“Thanks ” she said giving him a kiss on the cheek. “Now I have to go and find out what's happening.”
“Can’t you ring and find out?” he asked not wanting to let her go.
“That would be more sensible seeing as I have to be here” she replied. She pulled away from and searched through her bag. She pulled out her mobile and rung ’s number.
“Kath, what's happening? … Yeah … Is that all? … Oh, right … ok … Oh yeah, there’s a party at mine tonight at 9. Make sure you come right …long story. I’ll tell ya later … Ok babe … bye.”
“Anything serious?” asked
“No, my Gran’s dog ran away. Well I say my Gran’s dog, it's more like ’s dog. That’s why she left”
“Well I’m glad it’s nothing serious. Now come on” he said taking her arm and dragging her down the corridor “We need to be looked after properly. ’s been all over and was flirting with until she left. We need someone to look after us now” he smiled at her.
As they got back to the dressing room, was walking down the corridor. “ , Come here please, NOW!” she shouted
“Here we go” she joked with as she rolled her eyes.
“Yes , what can I do for you?”
“Where have you been? And where is your uniform?” spoke in a very strong welsh accent.
“Well, I was looking for this young lad. You see he spilt his coke all over my uniform so I went to get changed and when I got back he’d gone. I found him by the exit, he wanted to meet the fans but I told him that all that comes later.”
“Well, go and get your uniform back on please”
“ it’s covered in coke. Do you want me to look like I’ve just got in from a night sweeping the roads?”
“Hu,” puffed as she walked away.
“Sorry dude.” She said to as she had practically blamed everything on him.
“You owe me” he smiled “Who the hell was that? She’s scary”
“That’s , my supervisor. She’s easy if you can bend the truth a little. That was a great one I think. Now I get to stay in this for the rest of the day and not that hideous uniform” she laughed
“Yeah but you got me into trouble”
“Yeah, but you’re a teenage boy, you're used to being in trouble” she joked
“I’m not always in trouble. I’m the good boy of the band” he laughed.
“Dude, I’ve got a brother about your age and I know that there’s no such thing as a good 19 year old”
“Really?” He joked. “Well you’ve never met me before” he smiled.
