"OMG!" Jenna jumped up and down. "OMG!" She repeated. Her blond curls were bouncing all over and she had a goofy grin on her face.
"What are you so excited for?" Mollie asked her cousin.
"OMG! You'll never guess who was on the phone!"
Mollie leaned forward and glanced at the caller I.D. "Uh. Hmm. Was it Lou?"
"No fair! You cheated!" Jenna sat down and began to pout.
"I'm sorry. What'd he want?" Mollie patted her on the back.
Jenna bounced back up and grabbed Mollie by the shoulders. "We've got a gig!!" She began to dance around.
"Really?" Mollie's eyes lit up. She hated to stop performing even for a week. "Doing what?" She asked eagerly.
"We're opening for *N SYNC!" Jenna cried.
"OMG! *N SYNC!! Wow!!" Mollie twirled around the room excitedly with Jenna. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lance sat in the "living room" of the tour bus. He had a pencil behind his ear and was staring intently at a stack of papers on his lap.
"So what's on the agenda, Scoop?" JC asked coming into the room.
"Oh, well, we've got the fall tour which starts in New York and ends in Los Angelos. And in about an hour or two we'll be meeting the opening act for that tour." Lance replied matter of factly.
"Oh so who is it this time? Hot girls I hope." Justin said from the floor where he was playing video games with Chris. "Better be cuter than those ugly B*Witched chicks."^
"Justin!" Lance said, pretending to be shocked. ^That stuck up spoiled brat would care for something as shallow as appearance.
"That's not nice Curly." Joey said with his mouth full.
"Seriously though, who's gonna open for us?" JC asked.
"Anybody we know?" Chris popped in only after killing Justin. "Yeah, told ya Curly! I knew I'd beat you!"
"Well that's the only thing you can beat me at!" Justin said sounding totally competitive.
"Anyways... maybe. Ever heard of 'Heaven Sent?'" Lance directed the question to all of them. None of the guys seemed to recognize the name.
"They're Transcon's latest prodigy." He explained.
All the guys nodded their heads in understanding. "I hope they're nothing like Innosense." Chris said under his breath.
"You mean Innosluts." Justin laughed.
"Only you and Joey would know that!" Chris joked.
"They couldn't sing worth an s**t, but d**n were they good in bed!" Justin had this stupid cheezy smile on his face.
"Justin! Mandy's in Innosense! She's Lance's cousin! And besides you shouldn't use that kind of language!" JC scolded.
"Thanks JC. Mandy wasn't a slut. She was from Mississippi ya know. Just like me." Lance smiled his "I'm proud to be a Mississippian" smile.
"Yes Lance. We've heard you say that a billion times!" Chris rolled his eyes.
"Mandy was the best of all. D**n! I would do her all over again! Ya know we once did it on Lance's bunk. It was her idea. Boy was she messy!" Justin whispered to Chris.
"Shut-up Justin or I'll..." Lance said as he stood up.
"You'll what?" Justin stood up too and towered above 5'11" Lance.
"I'll, I'll...." He stammered.
"Ha! I knew it! He's just a Mississippi Albino chicken." Justin said to no one in particular.
"Hey Joey, tell Curly where Britney was last night!" Lance said growing angry.
"Yo! Brit was out shopping with Danielle! They had to find a new outfit for her next tour!" Justin repeated what he'd been told the day before.
"Uh-uh. Britney was with Lance. They went out to dinner and then they went to Motel 6 to go..." Joey began innocently not understanding what was going on.
"What?!?!" Justin cried. "What were you doing w/ muh woman?"
"Didn't you hear what Joey said, Justin?" Lance taunted. ^He and Britney had gone out to dinner, that was true. And they'd gone to Motel 6 but only to pick up Danielle. But Curly didn't know that. Besides Justin has really been getting on my nerves. He's a stuck up, spoiled, full of himself prep. Even Britney thinks so, and she's his girlfriend!
"Boy, you'd betta watch out, yo! 'Cuz I be coming and if I get a hold of your fat albino @$$ I can gaurantee that you won't see the ligth of day because your head will be so far up it!!!" Justin was so mad he was talking in Ebonics again.
"Dude!" Chris stared at the two blondes. He's seen them fight before. Heck, he'd seen Justin give Lance a black eye before but this time it looked as if only a black eye was Justin's intention.
"Stop!" JC cried as Justin lunged toward Lance. He knocked Lance down and began punching him without mercy.
"Can anyone say 'Rock & Jock'^? Chris asked, trying to get a little humor out of the situation.
Lance's face got red with anger. "You're going down, punk!" He yelled. With an adreline rush Lance pushed Justin off him and began beating him with his fists. He couldn't stop himself even when he heard Justin whimpering.
"Oh God! What am I doing?" He cried, still unable to stop. "Someone stop me!"
The other three guys were standing there shocked. Finally Joey snapped out of the trance and rushed over to him. He pulled Lance off Justin.
Lance sat on the floor, tears streaming down his face.
"Oh my goodness!" JC took one look at Justin and had to look away.
"I'm sorry Justin. I don't know what came over me." Lance began to feel sick. "I really am sorry."
Justin nodded his cut and bruised head.
"That's gonna take a lot of makeup to cover up, Curly." Chris lightly joked.
Justin smiled a little bit. But it was a sad smile.
Lance's face turned green and he headed towards the bathroom. He opened the door and puked in the toilet.
About 20 minutes later JC came in. Lance was sitting next to the toilet his back to the wall. He had his eyes closed and his head downcast.
"Hey. You okay?" JC asked.
Lance shook his head no. He looked like he was longing for pity but also as if he felt too guilty to recieve it.
"What happened in there, man?" JC looked genuinly concerned.
"I don't know. Something came over me. I guess I was possessed or something. I didn't want to hurt him, I really didn't." Lance held his head in his hands. "Oh God, JC. Is he ok?"
"Justin is fine. His stubborn pride wouldn't let him be seen as an invalid for long. Nothing's broken. He's just bruised." JC left out just how bruised and disfigured he was. The once pretty boy of *N SYNC now made The Hunchback look good.
"I need some time off. It's all too stressful. I would never hurt anyone in my right mind."
"I know. We all need time off." JC patted Lance on the back.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*Mollie was sitting against the wall in the booth they were in. Claire was next to her, Jenna was playing video games and Taylor & Lauren were sitting across from them.
"Yum! Pizza!" Lauren grabbed two pieces of supreme. "I'm sooo hungry!"
Mollie laughed. What a surprise. Lauren was always hungry. She never gained any weight though! She was just a bottomless pit.
Taylor had a disgusted look on her face. "Is that all you can think about? I mean we're opening for *N SYNC and meeting them in half an hour."
Lauren ignored her and polished off her second slice.
"Ooooo. *N SYNC. Isn't it all sooo dreamy?" Claire sighed.
"Actually I prefer the Backstreet Boys." Lauren said calmly as she reached for the last piece of pizza.
Taylor stopped in mid-bite. "What?"
"I said I..." Lauren began.
"I heard what you said." Taylor replied.
"She's asking how you could prefer BSB to *N SYNC." Mollie explained.
"Well for one, they sing better and their songs are better. Secondly, Nick is the sexiest man alive, and thirdly *N SYNC are all d-o-g-g-s! Doggs!"
"Throw her outta the group! Just throw her out!" Taylor cried as she jumped out of her seat. "Just leave!"
"Well, really we all should be going if we wanna be there on time. C'mon." Claire said as she led the way out the door. ~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
The guys of *N SYNC were sitting in Lou's office. They all had solomn looks on their faces.
"Cheer up guys! You're about to meet some of the most beautiful and talented young women." Lou said.
"He said that about B*Witched too." Chris joked. Justin smiled. The bruises on his face were barely visible thanks to some really good make-up artists.
"Well this time its true." Lou defended himself.
"I'm sure they are Lou." JC laughed and rolled his eyes.
"What's their names and how old are they?" Joey asked. "And uh, do ya have a pic?"
"The guys all laughed. "That's Joey for ya." Justin smiled.
Lou chuckled and pulled out a black and white pic of them. JC took it and wrinkled his nose. "Here ya go, Joey."
"Ugh! Lou, tell me this isn't them!" Justin cried looking over Joey's shoulder.
"Yep that's them. Its not a very good pic..."
"Not very good?!? They're dogg ugly!" Joey exclaimed. Lance chuckled. It was the first sound he'd made since they came into the office.
"What are you laughing at?" Chris asked.
"I was just thinking, thats what I first thought of Topanga...err..Danielle."
"So?" Justin questioned.
"And that's what I still think of her!" Lance laughed.
"Good one Lance!" Joey gave him a high five.
"Yeah. That was pretty funny.... for a Mississippi Albino." Justin patted him on the back.
"Thanks, Jus"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
The five young girls of Heaven Sent walked through the doors of TransContinental Records. Mary, the secretary nodded at them to go ahead and enter Lou's office. Oh boy, Molly thought. I'm going to meet my fave group in the whole world in a matter of seconds. Who woulda thought?
Taylor leaned towards her and whispered, "Does my hair look ok? I didn't get a chance to fix it." Her light brown hair was pulled back into a sleek ponytail. She had a few strands of blond highlights falling.
"It lookes great. Wish I could look that good when my hair's a mess." Mollie teased.
"All right everyone, her goes nothing!" Jenna cried as she pushed open the door to Lou's house.
The girls walked in just as Lou was telling the guys, "Now, even if they aren't attractive be nice."
Lance's eyes moved from Lou's chubby face to the girl that just walked in the room. She was the shortes of all five but seemed to be the most friendly. She had a huge smile on her was and her eyes were shining with happiness. The petite brunette brushed a lock of stray hair out of her eyes. She's cute, He thought.
"Guys may I present, Heaven Sent. Girls this is *N SYNC." Lou introduced.
"Lou... thes girls can't be Heaven Sent. They are sooo much hotter than the girls in the pic." Justin pointed to the black and white laying on Lou's desk.
Jenna walked calmly over to the desk and looked at the pic. "Yep that's us. Ugh! But about 2 years ago when we looked like total skanks!"
Chris laughed.
"And what's so funny about that?!" Taylor demanded, forgetting the 5 guys before her were her idols.
"He can laugh at whatever he wants to. He's Chris." Justin said defending his friend.
"Oh so being Chris and a member of *N SYNC makes him above the rest of us and able to laugh at others?" Taylor shot back.
"He didn't say that." JC said coming to Justin's defense.
Chris stopped laughing. "You guys are nuts! I was laughing 'cuz of how she said that! Dude it was funny!"
Jenna smiled. "Well thank ya very much." She grinned at her Elvis impersonation.
"Hey that was pretty good!" Joey praised.
"Well Lauren taught me how." Jenna said trying to be modest.
"Which one is Lauren?" Joey asked.
"How 'bout we just do introductions?" Lou suggested. Both groups nodded in agreement.
"That's Chris, Justin, Joey, JC and Lance." Lou said turning to the guys.
"Papa Bear, we already knew that." Mollie teased.
"Oh sorry." He replied sheepishly. "*N SYNC this is Heaven Sent. Jenna Coyne, Lauren Jadwin, Claire Myers, Taylor Watson and Mollie Richmond." He pointed each girl out as he said their names.
"Hi we're *N SYNC." The guys greeted in synch.
"And we are..." Jenna began by saying. "He-" First Mollie's angelic voice, then Claire's beautiful voice complimented by Lauren's strong voice, combined with Jenna's "ability to reach new heights" and don't forget Taylor's sultry voice. "Heaven Sent." They finished together.
"Wow! That was great!" Lance began to clap. The other guys looked at him and began to clap too.
Mollie blushed. "Thanx. We've been working on that."
"Its really good." Justin said truthfully.
"You guys should feel pretty special, Pretty Boy rarely ever gives compliments and means them." JC teased.
Everybody laughed.
"I'm glad you all are getting along so well. For a minute there I was afraid I'd hafta cancel th tour." Lou joked.
Everyone groaned. "Oh Papa Bear." Claire sighed.
Mollie glanced up at the clock. It said 20 'till 4:00."
"OMG! Guys we've gotta photo shoot at 4:00!" She cried. The other girls jumped up and headed towards the door. "Nice meeting you guys! See ya later! Bye!" They called.
"Bye!" *N SYNC said.
Mollie was just going through the door when she felt a hand on her shoulder. She turned around.
"Do you have a minute?" Lance asked.
"Well...." Mollie said looking down at her watch. "Wanna do someting later? Go for pizza or something?" He asked hurridly.
"Sure. Call me. Its my home number." Mollie wrote her number on his hand. "See ya!" And she rushed to follow her friends.
Lance walked back to Lou's office.
"Where'd ya go?" JC asked.
Justin was the first one to notice the number written on his hand. "He got one of the chicks numbers!"
"Lance! Its Joey's job to be the flirt!" Chris said, almost scolded.
Lance just smiled and shrugged. "They don't call me Stealth for nothing." ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
