Josie had her head on Nick’s shoulder as they rode the elevator up to the hotel room. She was completely beat. She didn’t know how Nick could do it, go on stage and sing plus dance. They got to the room and she went straight to bed. Nick and the guys were out in the kitchen eating so she changed into her pink tank top and shorts pajamas. She had just pulled on her top when Nick walked in.
“Which bed do you want?” Josie questioned. Nick shrugged.
“Whichever you want” Nick replied. He walked over to light and turned it off. Nick pulled of his shirt and khakis, leaving only his boxers, and climbed into bed. Josie sat still for a few moments. She had been tired maybe 10 minutes before, but now felt like talking.
“Nick?” Josie asked.
“Yeah Josie?” Nick asked.
“Are you tired?” Josie questioned. Nick mumbled something.
“Nah, not really, why?” Nick asked.
“Well, Before we left, This morning, My friend Melissa came over and we saw the ending of the ultrasound on you guys, anyway, If you don’t mind me asking, why are you and your mom fighting?” Josie asked.
“It’s a long story” Nick replied.
“I have all night” Josie replied.
“Well, my mom didn’t really like Mandy, my ex girlfriend. She had something against her, probably because I choose to spend Christmas with Mandy instead of her. Anyway, she went to the enquirer and told them everything, I was pissed” Nick exclaimed.
“That’s it?” Josie questioned.
“Well, Josie-I think that’s enough” Nick replied. “Are you like best friends with your mom or something?”
“My Mom’s dead” Josie commented.
“Oh, I’m sorry” Nick replied. Josie sighed.
“It’s OK, About 3 years after my mom died, My dad got remarried and then 2 years after that, She was in a car accident and died. I got over it, Life goes on” Josie explained. Josie shivered and noticed Nick had a bigger comforter than her on his bed.
“Are you cold?” Josie asked.
“Not really” He replied. Josie stood up and switched on the lights. She walked over to her bed and pushed it over to Nick’s. Then got back in.
“Why’d you do that?” Nick questioned, hoping she would make a move on him. Josie turned around and pulled the comforter over to her.
“I was cold” She replied. Nick smirked.
“Your something else you know that” Nick replied.
“No, I didn’t” Josie replied. “You know what, When I was like 5 my mom used to take me to a neighborhood where all the rich kids lived. She used to clean houses there. Anyway, she used to tell me she would make sure I would live in one someday”
“Where did that come from?” Nick joked.
“Well, I was just sitting in this expensive room that’s like 500 bucks a night and I thought of it” Josie replied.
“Well, you’ll love Brian house then. It has 300 acres: A basketball court, golf course, tennis courts,
swimming pool, horse stables, plus a huge house” Nick explained.
“You’re pulling my leg!” Josie replied, looking at him.
“You do remember we’re Backstreet Boys! My house was 2 million without furniture and shit” Nick replied. Josie laughed.
“My side of the duplex is 900 bucks a month” Josie commented. “I go to my dad’s every night and clean up and make him food; you on the other hand probably have a maid”
“Ana” Nick commented. Suddenly feeling tired; he placed his head on the pillow and closed his eyes.
“What?” Josie asked.
“The maid’s name is Ana” Nick replied. Josie settled into bed and felt Nick’s arm go around her waist as she drifted into a dreamless sleep.
Josie opened one eye and saw the clock. It was 7am. She felt something digging into her back and moved around, pushing it away. She stopped pushing at it when she remembered she was sleeping right in front of Nick. Josie slowly got up and lifted up the comforter. Noticing what had poked her in the back, she put the comforter back down.
“Well, Well” Josie laughed to herself. Josie opened the bedroom door and walked into the kitchen, seeing AJ attempt to make some pancakes, Josie walked over to him.
“Having troubles?” Josie asked. AJ smirked.
“Is it that obvious? Everyone was sleeping and I was hungry and room service doesn’t start until 8” AJ explained.
“First, On the box it says ‘buttermilk pancakes’ so you know you don’t use water” Josie explained, pouring out the pancake batter AJ had.
“Well, that might have been the problem” AJ exclaimed. Josie smiled and put some of the batter she made into a pan.
“Now, just flip ‘em” Josie exclaimed.
“I can do that” AJ replied.
“I need to use the bathroom, where is it, I might get lost in this hotel room” Josie joked.
“Next to Brian and Leighanne’s room” AJ replied. Josie went into the direction of their room and found the bathroom.
“These are pretty good” Leighanne exclaimed, eating some pancakes.
“Yeah, finally some good home cooking!” Brian exclaimed. Josie smiled sweetly. Everyone was still in there pajamas. Kevin and Kristin had decided to go out for breakfast and Howie and Claudia had gone out clubbing the night before; and never came home.
“You mean Leighanne doesn’t make pancakes?” Joise asked.
“Yea Jo she does, They just taste like crap” Amanda joked. She had started to call her Jo, which Josie didn’t mind.
“Maybe you should go get Nick up, If you don’t he’ll sleep past noon” AJ exclaimed. Josie walked down to their room and walked in. Nick had thrown all the covers on the floor; so he was in a weird position on the bed. Josie walked over to him and shook him.
“Nick” Josie yelled softly. She smacked him on the arm and he bunched up his nose, making a cute face.
“What?” Nick asked; having his eyes still closed. He stretched and went to go scratch himself. He opened both eyes and took his hand off his boxers.
“Oh, Hey Josie” Nick said embarrassed and blushing.
“That was very cute; but I made some pancakes if you want to eat” Josie suggested.
“Yea sure” Nick replied, he stood up and followed her out to the kitchen.
“Morning Nick!” Brian exclaimed.
“Morning” AJ yelled.
“Hey guys” Nick replied, scratching his head.
“Hey Jo, Did you get to see Nick’s morning ritual?” Amanda joked. Josie smirked. Nick was busy getting some pancakes, so Josie walked over to Amanda.
“Oh yeah, I should get some pictures of that and put it on the web” Josie joked.
“Hey, More people would visit it than BackstreetBoys.com” Amanda replied.
Josie was packing her stuff when Nick walked into the room.
“Hey, Where are going?” Nick asked.
“My plane leaves at 10:30” Josie replied.
“Tomorrow at 10:30, we still have another concert tonight” Nick explained.
“I thought I left on July 5th” Josie replied.
“And today is the 4th, You know, Independence Day” Nick explained. “By the way, I’m sorry about this morning, The guys always have to find some way to embarrass me”
“No problem at all; I was just afraid you were going to whip that bad boy out” Josie joked. Nick laughed.
“If you really want, That could be arranged” Nick joked. Josie rolled her eyes.
“You only wish Nick,” Josie commented, walking out of the room. Nick smiled at her and watched her leave. He looked down at the plane ticket he had bought for her to go home ‘One adult on Midwest Express Boeing 707, July 4th, 10:30 am’. Nick tore it up and walked after her.
