I walk into the kitchen and feed the cats.  Then I start up the coffee pot, it's been  a long night and it's going to be a long day.  I already feel like I've been working all night.  I walk into Sarah's room and throw a pillow at her.

"Hey what's up?  Don't do that!"  She snaps

"Look I got a rude awakening so you do too.  No reason why we shouldn't suffer together."  I say as I walk into the bathroom.
 

I walk into my room and put on my khaki shorts and my sleevless white shirt.  Then I slip on my sandles and walk into the living room.  Sarah is laying on the couch half asleep.  I move her over and she wakes up.

"I started to get up, but as soon as I sat down on this soft couch; I lost conciousness."  She says

"Yeah I know you're tired, we stayed up pretty late.  But you know that we have to go into the studio in an hour and a half.”  I say

“You know it’s AJ’s fault.  He just had to get his cast off this morning.  Which means that we have to get back to filming.”  Sarah says sleepily.

I say, “ Look, go get ready then we can go to the coffee house down the street and get some cappuccino's."  I say.  Sarah smiles and runs for the shower.

Sarah and I walk into the studio with a cappuccino in each hand.  AJ and Brian look very tired, while the rest of the guys are refreshed.

I walk up to AJ and ask, “How’s the leg baby?”

“Feels a lot better.  I can actually wear shoes again.”  He says  I smile at everyone and Sarah and I walk into the dressing/makeup room.
 

"OK you guys; lets switch to teenager mood."  the director says  "We all ready?"  The guys look around.

Then Howie says, "Well it seems, Sarah and Suzanne aren't out of the dressing room yet.  But you know how women are."

"Oh really how are women?"  Sarah says

The guys turn around and look at Sarah, their mouths drop open.  Sarah is wearing a pair of black daisy-dukes, a dark blue tummy-tee, and a pair of black Nike's.

Brian walks up to her and says, "Wow."

"So Howie, what were you saying about how women are?"  Sarah asks

Howie gives a little smile and says, "Well I said that women take a lot of time to get ready..."

AJ cuts him off by saying, "But in the long run, it's totally worth it."

Just then I walk in wearing a pair of stonewash thigh high Jean shorts, a white thin strapped tiny tee, and a pair of brown sandles.  I walk up to the guys while I'm trying to get my ankle bracelet on.  Finally Kevin grabs my foot and Nick puts it on as Howie holds me up.

"Thanks you guys, it helps to have big brothers."  I say with a smile.

Kevin puts his arm around Sarah and me and says, "Just watching' out for our little sis’s."

"Yeah, ya know, we can't let you look imperfect; it's bad for our image."  Nick says.  I act like I'm going to slap him and he runs.

"He's not worth your trouble."  Howie says

"Yeah I know, but it's just so fun slapping him around."  I say.  I look over at AJ he's laying on top of a table with a hat covering his face.  I sneak over to him and poke him in the side.

"Hey!  Who did that?"  He yells as I hide under the table.

He looks around the room at the group and says, "Which one of you did that?  Who did that?"  Everyone shook their heads.  AJ stands up and starts walking towards them.  I run up behind him and poke his sides again.

He turns around and says, "I should have known it was you."

"Little innocent me?  Nah."  I say as he grabs me and holds me.

The director walks over and says, "Now are we ready?"

Sarah looks around and says, "Yeah.  Sorry it took us so long."

"That's alright.  Places everyone."  The director says.    We all get into our places and get ready to start.  Sarah and I are standing by a group of lockers with Howie and Kevin.

The director yells, "Action!"

“So what are we going to do tonight?”  Howie asks us.

“Whatever’s good with you guys I guess.”  Sarah says

I frown and say, “I have a big Biology 2 test tomorrow, first hour too.  I can’t go anywhere but my room tonight.  But I want you guys to go out, have fun for me.”

“Are you sure about that?  I mean, it just wouldn’t be right without the whole gang.” Kevin says.

I look at all of them with a smile  and say, “All of you go out or I’ll never speak to you again.”

“OK OK We’ll go out.  I tell you what, she strives for us to have fun.”  Sarah says

“Well, we’ll see you later.  Lets go Sarah.”  Howie says

“Bye” I say

They all say, “Bye”

(Howie, Kevin, and Sarah exit.  I grab a book out of my locker and put it in my bag.  I close my locker and start walking up the hall.)
 
“OH hey Suzy.”  A voice says

I turn around to see a group of girls.  I say, “Hi, I was just heading home.”

“Where’s your boyfriend?” a girl says

I say, “He and the gang are going out tonight.  I’m staying home to study for my Biology test.  So if you don’t mind I need to be going.”

“Well it’s just I’d think you’d want to go with them.  I mean a lot of girls have their eye on him.”  Another girl says.

I start to get mad.  I turn around and snap, “Look, I trust AJ.  So it doesn’t matter what comes out of your gossiping mouth, it won’t change my mind.  So if you please, leave me alone.”

“CUT!!!” the director yells “That was good, you had some real power in that.”
