As we walked in, the guys were just finishing up the shoot. The entire shoot took about 1 ½ to 2 hours. Frank nudged Greg when they saw that we’d come back. The rest of the guys went to go back and change but Greg came over to me quickly and gave me a hug and kiss and went back to change. It had been 10 minutes and they still weren’t back from changing. “Geeze! What are those boys doing back there?!?” Claudia looked down at her watch. “We’re going to be late for the interview” We all exchanged glances. “Maybe one of them got stuck again. Ya know? Like remember the time when Matt went to go and put on his jersey, but instead of putting his head through the top of the shirt, he put it through the sleeve and he had to cut his jersey to get his head out?” I laughed. Everyone started busting up laughing. “Oh yeah! I almost forgot about that!” Larissa’s face was bright red from laughing so hard. “How the hell did he manage to do that?!?” Kelly gave us looks like we were crazy. “With those boys, anything can happen!” Sara laughed.
Finally the guys came out from the dressing rooms. “FINALLY! Let’s go!” Claudia said as we all walked out of the photo studio and went to another studio for the interview. Greg had his arm around me when we walked in. “The interview shouldn’t be that long. Can we talk after?” he looked down at me. “Yeah sure,” I smiled up at him. “Aiight,” he flashed a smile and went to sit down with the rest of the guys for the interview.
Teen People:How are all of you?
Dream Street:Good.
Teen People:How long have all of you been together as a group?
Dream Street(Frankie:coming up on 3 ½ years
Teen People: What’s been your favorite part about being in this group besides all of the attention from girls all across the world?
Dream Street(Chris):All of us love being on stage and just love to be able to perform and do what we love as a career..
Dream Street(Greg):It’s so amazing to hear the audience sing along with us and be apart of the show. We always have a blast on stage and it just gets your adrenaline pumping.
Teen People:Are you starting to get recognized on the streets?
Dream Street(Jesse):Yes, actually. Now we can’t leave our houses or apartment without wearing sunglasses or a hat or something. It’s kind of weird but it’s for our safety.
Teen People:Do you all still go to school or do you have tutors?
Dream Street(Matt):When we’re on the road we have tutors, but when we’re home for a while we go back to our schools. It’s good because we get to be with our other friends again and in a way it keeps us grounded.
Teen People:Now the question that girls all over the world would like to know…do you have girlfriends?
Everything was going great. The five of us (girls) were sitting in the back watching them get interviewed. Then Greg’s cell phone started to ring quietly. He had given it to me before he went to the shoot and interview and had told me to pick it up if it rang. “Hello?” I answered the phone. “Hello?” a strange unfamiliar voice replied. “Who’s this?” I whispered so that I wouldn’t interrupt the interview. “This is Lily, who’s this?” she giggled. “Lauren, Greg’s girlfriend,” I replied. “Oh (she laughed) not for long sweetie,” she had a sour tone. “Excuse me?” I walked away into another room. The other 4 saw that I’d left and all looked back. Greg saw that I had left too and looked to see where I was going.
Dream Street(Greg):Umm..yes, I do have a girlfriend.
Dream Street(Frankie):I’m seeing someone, but I don’t officially have a girlfriend.
Dream Street(Jesse):Yes, I also have a girlfriend. (he winked at Sara)
Dream Street(Matt):Ditto
Dream Street(Chris):Yeah, I also have a girlfriend.
Teen People:Interesting…who are they, if you don’t mind me asking.
Dream Street(Greg):Actually, to respect them, we try not to get them involved with the spotlight. So we can’t really talk about who they are specifically.
Teen People:Understandable…how do they take the whole thing with you touring?
Dream Street(Jesse):They come on tour with us most of the time. They’re really good with that, and are patient with us because we can be really stubborn at times. And to be honest, people don’t always want to deal with us when we’re like that, but somehow they put up with it, and that means a lot to us. (the other 4 guys nodded their heads in agreement)
About a half hour later, the interview ended. As soon as it was over, Greg came out to where I was sitting and gave me a soft kiss on the top of my head. “What happened before?” he sat down next to me. “Someone called for you…” I kept looking at the ground. “Who?” he replied. “Lilly…” I trailed off. “Ugh, I swear, that girl doesn’t know when to leave me the hell alone!” I could tell he was getting really irritated by her. “Are you going to call her back?” I slowly lifted up my head and looked at him. “Why would I?” he moved closer to me. “I don’t know…I mean, you guys have a history and..umm…I don’t know..” I stuttered. “Look,” he started as he took his finger and pushed up my chin so that I was looking directly into his eyes. “And don’t look down…look right here,” he gave me an intense stare. “To tell you the truth…I can’t stand her! Like I said before, she’s holding onto something that just isn’t there anymore. And to be honest, I don’t know what I saw in her in the first place. She’s a needy, complaining, selfish, spoiled girl. But you…you’re SO different. You’re beautiful, inside AND out. You’re always there for people…you’re independent (when you have to be), and you’re probably one of the least selfish people that I know. You have so many qualities that are amazing…I wouldn’t even think of looking at someone else. I’m with you..and only you,” he finished. By that time I was crying my poor lil eyes out. “Come here,” he said as he pulled me in close and gave me a hug; I could hear his heartbeat, and I just wanted to fall asleep.
I lifted up my head and he wiped a tear from my cheek. “Wow..was it THAT bad?” he joked. I laughed a little bit. “No…,” Then we had a little session. I gave him another hug, and we went back inside.
