Chapter 1

"Was that not the best movie?" Rachel asked her friends.

"Well, it was okay," Madison admitted, "but it just didn't seem as good as it did in the previews."

"Chris Klien looked fine!" Nikki gushed.

"Nikki, please," Allie said. "The day Chris Klien looks fine is the day that Kevin Richardson waxes his eyebrows."

"The day that Justin Timberlake's hair goes completely straight," Rachel supplied.

The waiter came over to the girl's booth. "Anything else you ladies need?" he asked.

"No.... we're just getting ready to leave," Allie said. As soon as the waiter walked away, she whistled. "Did you get a look at him?" she whispered.

Rachel nodded. "He looked just like Brian! If only he had the accent, he'd be a full-on lookalike."

Madison shook her head. "I don't get y'all." She put a five-dollar bill down as a tip for the waiter, and grabbed her bag. "Let's go."

The four girls walked out of Ramone's Pizzaria and across the street. Quite a few people were flooding out of Deja Vu, a nightclub across the street. "We gotta go in there someday," Nikki said.

"Nicolette Roxanne DeGrassio, have you forgotten that we're underage?" Rachel said. She was the cautious one of the group.

"Oh come on," Nikki said as she headed down through the alley beside the club. "We could all pass as at least twenty-one."

"Maybe," Allie said. She and the other three girls began following Nikki. They stopped for a minute when they heard the sound of someone running behind them.

"Oh shit," Madison said.

Nikki turned around to see a tall, darkly clad figure running toward them. Dammit, it's a mugger! "RUN!" she screamed at the other girls.

As the person approached her, Nikki prepared herself to fight. As soon as they came right on her, she let out a loud yell and kicked them in the stomach. As soon as the figure doubled over in pain, she hit them on the back of the neck a couple of times, then watched as they fell to the ground, unconcious.

"Nikki! Oh my God!" Allie ran back to where Nikki stood. "What happened?"

Nikki panted, "I.. guess that they were gonna mug us or somethin'. He's all dressed in black, so...."

"Nikki!" Rachel shreiked. "Look! That guy's holding car keys!"

"I thought it was a gun," Nikki said slowly.

"She's having a BM," Madison said.

"What?" Rachel asked.

"Blonde moment."

Nikki gave Madison an evil look. "Well, let's see who this guy is." She turned over the unconcious man, who had been lying on his back. He had on a black baseball cap, black leather jacket, black shirt and pants.... My, someone's Gothic, Nikki thought. He wore dark-lensed sunglasses and had a goatee.... "Ohmigod, y'all," Nikki said.

"What is it?"

"This guy looks just like AJ."

Allie studied the man's face. There was only a dim light in the alley, so she could barely make out his features. "Nikki, please," she said.

"AJ lookalike or not, we've gotta take him home," Madison remarked. "He's out cold."

"We could take him to your place, Nikki," Rachel said nervously. "My 'rents would hit the roof if they found out I was bringing home a guy."

"Okay, we got to carry him to the car."

*********

Allie went and got the car, while Madison, Nikki, and Rachel stayed with the victim. When Allie ran back down the alley, the other girls picked up the man, and pushed him into the backseat of Allie's Mustang. Madison and Nikki stayed with him in the backseat, while Rachel, jittery with fear, sat in the front.

"What if Nikki killed him?" she said.

"Chill out," Madison said. "He's still got a pulse."

Nikki took off his sunglasses to see his eyes tightly shut. He looks like such a hottie, she thought. And so much like AJ, it's ridiculous. Curiousity got the better of her, and she flicked on the light in the back of the car. When she looked at the man's face, she screamed hysterically, almost causing Allie to swerve off the road.

"Dammit Nikki, are you TRYING to kill us?!" Allie yelled.

"Ohmigod!" Nikki was screaming half out of excitement, and half out of pure fear. "It's AJ! We have AJ McLean in the back of this car!"
