Chapter 5
I hate to admit this but Nick is hot! Oh my God! He has the bluest eyes. I was outside once again. Lonnie dropped my off in the oval. I kinda made my way up front, and now I was standing right in front of the stage! In fact, if one of the boys leaned over enough, I could probably pull them off the stage!
And I still can't find my cousin. Oh well! She can find her own way home. She lives in the area. Anyways, back to Nick....he was sooooo hot. I didn't even notice the BSB walking past until I looked up. Then I saw a pair of ocean blue eye staring in to mine. I couldn't resist staring back and smiling. I was knocked out of my daydream (daydreaming again, that's me!) when I heard more loud screaming and cheering. Aaron Carter was walking offstage.
Already? What? Since when was he singing? OK, maybe, I wasn't really paying attention. I was busy thinking of someone....... Darnit! I was becomming a disillousioned teeny-bopper. Gotta stop with these thoughts! There was a short intermission. God, this is boring, I thought, are they ever gonna come out? I waited some more, and some more...and some more. Then finally! Lonnie came out!
"Are you all having fun?" Lonnie asked. There was screams, again. "Sorry, this took so long....Erm...the guys had a little mishap." He grinned at me. I knew exatly what he was talking about. "Anyways, without furthur ado...the Backstreet Boys!"
Fire works shot up, one at a time. Each boy popping up with every loud blow. They started dancing to 'Too Close'. This really wicked dance. (I always seem to appreciate groups more, if they can dance really well.) I stared at Nick throughout the whole dance sequence. Then they launched in to 'That's the Way I Like It'. Nick took center stage during his opening line. He stood directly above me. At first he looked out, then he looked down......
On Stage.....
Nick was at center stage waiting for his cue to start 'That's the Way I Like It'. It started and they started the dance. Nick looked out at the bleachers. His eyes sweeping across all the screaming fans. But he only had one fan in mind, and she was nowhere to be seen. Then he directed his eyes below him, and the sight shocked him. It was the girl!
Shoot, he though, I don't even know her name! But there she was, looking straight at him, and he could do nothing but look back. He felt a slight nudge behind him. He turned around, and Kevin was glaring at him. He missed his cue! His face turned a deep red. It was the second time he emmbarassed himself in front of her! Now she had an amused smile on her face. Nick mentally kicked himself. The band immediatly restarted and this time Nick paid attention. He opened his mouth and started singing, looking at her the whole time.
The song ended, and they guys headed backstage to change. Howie's solo was up next. Then his own so he had time to think. He quickly changed and vegged out on the couch in the make-up room.
"Nick, what the heck was wrong with you?" Kevin yelled, "Are you on drugs or something?"
"Wha?" Nick answered.
"Lay off, Kev." Brian said for Nick, "He just got distracted, that's all." AJ smirked and Brian winked at Nick.
"Kevin, get your butt over here!" KiKi yelled. Nick reminded himself to thank Brian later. But now he had something important to do. He jumped off the couch and walked around in search of Lou, who had the extra backstage passes.......
Outside....
"Poor, Nick..."I murmered. He looked so embarresed up there. But still so incredibly cute. I remember how he looked straight in to my eyes. Or was it someone else?
"Did you see Nick look at me? He loves me." a girl next to me said to this other girl. Was it her? Or me? OK, now I'm confused! Ugh! Screw it. Like I really care about THE Nick Carter. Maybe a little. Nooo.....not at all! I mean he's cute, and hot, and darn fine, but do I really like him like all these teeny-boppers do? Heck, yeah! Nooo....I was having an argument with myself in my head. It was like having a 13 year old version of me above my right shoulder going, "He's so cute! He's so cute!" And then having a 'now' version of me going "He's a Backstreet Boy. You don't like them, remember? You're 18 years old!"
This was harsh, I'm going psycho. Then I was rudely awaken from my thoughts when something hit me on my head. I caught what ever it was the same time as some girl pounced on me. I threw her off and glared at her. She was about 13 and backed off. I looked down and saw it was a red rose. I looked in the direction it came from, up on stage. Howie was up there. Throwing roses in to the audience. How the heck did he get up there? His solo, duh! I have got to be paying more attention.
"Thanks, Edmonton!" Howie cried and disapeared backstage. Nick came out next....
Before he headed out to the front of the stage, he went to the band and whispered something to them. Wonder what that was about?
"Hey Edmonton!" Nick called out. He had just came out and was dressed in a suit thing. He was holding something, but you couldn't really see it.
I surrendered to my inner teeny-bopper and screamed just as loud as the rest of them. How could I refuse?
From up on the stage, Nick then leaned down to me (girls were clawing at him), took my hand and started singing.
"Open up, your heart to me.....
And say what's on your mind
I know that we have been through so much pain
But I still need you in my life..... this time......
And I need you tonight...
I need you right now
I know deep within my heart
Doesn't matter if it's wrong or right
All the endless nights we tried to make it last forever more....
It's easy, I know....
And I neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed you tonight.......
I know deep within my heart
It Doesn't matter if it's wrong or right
Cause I see heaven....
I need you tonight
I need you right now
I know deep within my heart
It doesn't matter if it's wrong or right
I see heaven......
In your eyes"
I was totally parilized. Here I was, at a concert I didn't even wanna go to, being sang to by Nick Carter. He was still holding on to my hand. Then he set the mic down and gave me that thing he was holding on to the whole time.
"So, I'll see you backstage?" he asked me, in a whisper. I looked down and saw what he gave me was a backstage pass. I smiled at him, "Yeah." I said back. With that he gave me one of his melt you in to a puddle smiles and headed backstage. On his way back, he was high fived by one of the band members.
Backstage......
"Nicky, couldn't have done it better myself!" AJ congratulated Nick.
"Thanks." Nick grinned. He did it. Now, he was gonna see her backstage.
"So what's her name?" Howie asked.
"I don't know! I forgot to ask!" Nick cried. He totally forgot to ask her!
"Smart!" Kevin said.
"Hey Nicky, go to make-up! You've still got a show to do!" Gary, their stage manager cried, "You're all on after Bri, AJ and Kev's solo's!! Or were you too busy, wooing fans that you forgot? "
"Yeah, kinda." Nick said sheepishly. Then hurried to Kiki who was doing their make-up. He dropped himself on the chair and let Kiki plaster his face with powder. He couldn't wait until after the show.
Outside....
Girls were giving me dirty looks. It's more like threatning glares actually. But like I give a darn what they think! Brian was on now. He was singing a song and playing a guitar. It was pretty good. And he looked pretty good...
"Excuse, me?" a girl asked (she looked about 16 or so), "Were you that girl that Nick Carter sang to?"
"Yeah...."
"Are you his girlfreind?" I started to laugh.
"No!"
"Then why did he do that?" she cried fustrated.
"I honestly don't know." I said as sincerly as I could. I really didn't know.
"What did he give you?" What was this, twenty questions?
"This..." I pulled out the backstage pass from my bag. She looked at it with wide eyes.
"You are so lucky!" I just shrugged my shoulders like it was no big deal. But I was hysterical inside. Who would have though, ya know. My first BSB concert, that I didn't even wanna go to in the first place, and I end up getting a new lust object. Cool. I stuffed the pass back in my bag. Then I heard a faint ring. It was my cell phone.
"Hello?" I asked. I could hardly hear whoever it was. Brian just finished and was waving bye bye to his fans.
"Emily! Ohmigod! Ohmigod! Iturnedonthetvandthereyouwereatthebsbconcert!" someone screamed in to my ear. It had quited down a bit.
"Hello?" I asked again.
"It's Leah!" my mentally challenged friend cried. Everything I know about the Backstreet Boys (which really isn't much) was because of her little 10 year old sister Maggie.
"Oh hey! Why are you calling me?" I was in Jacksonville at the moment and I lived in another city.
"OK, I turned on the TV and it was showing us clips form the Jacksonville concert and you were on!" Leah yelled, "Nick was seranading you! And you loved every minute of it! I saw your face!"
Soemone had come on the stage. I didn't even have to look up, just the screams were enough to tell me.
"So what if I did?"
"You witch! You diss the BSB so harsh and now you're making goo-goo eyes at Nick. Mags is totally freaking out!"
"I was not making goo-goo eyes at Nick!"
"Yeah, you were! I saw that look. It was your 'I'm an irresistable, goddess' look."
"Nuh-uh!"
"Yah-huh!"
"OK, I don't wanna get into that with you!" I said.
"What did he give you? Stupid TV people cut it off after that."
"Backstage pass."
"Shut up!"
"I'm serious!"
"No way!"
"Yes way!"
"No way!"
"Stop it! I hate it when we do that!" I said exasperatly.
"Your gonna go, right?"
"Dunno...."
"Stupid girl! Go! Forget about Seth! I mean, who really cares?"
"Whatever....." I felt a little guilty. Seth.....
"I'll let you enjoy the pretty boy. Better call me after." She interrupted my brief thoughts.
"I will." I promised.
"Have fun...." Leah sang, "Oh yeah, words of advice....don't forget to use protection! And don't stay up too late, we start Unversity soon, ya know!"
"No need to worry." She simply laughed and hung up. This girl is desperatly in need of help. I flicked the 'end' button and dropped it back in my bag, making sure the backstage pass was where I left it.
