"Wait guys!" Lindsay exclaimed. "Before you leave, what are you hiding?"
"We told you Linz, nothing." Tay said.
"Trust me, Lindsay. It's something."
"Oh, hi Rachel." Isaac said.
"Hi. Now, are you gonna show her what your hiding, or am I gonna have to show her?"
"Umm... Show her what??" Zac said nervously." I mean, what do we have to show her??"
"Fine, I'll do it." She pulled a cassette tape out of Tay’s pocket.
"Hey! Don't you go there." He laughing.
"Shut up, Tay!" They all said laughing.
"Here, Lindsay. Play this in the cassette player." Rachel said.
"Ok..."
The next thing she heard was herself singing ‘Baby One More Time.’
Oh baby, baby, how was I supposed to know
That somethin’ wasn't right here
Oh baby, baby, I shouldn't have let you go
And now you're out of sight yeah
Show me how you want it to be
Tell me babe cuz I need to know now what we've got'
"I can't believe you did this!" Lindsay said
"Shhh!" EVERY ONE HISSED.
‘My loneliness is killin’ me (and I)
I must confess I still believe (still believe)
When I'm not with you I lose my mind
Give me a sign, hit me baby one more time
Oh baby, baby, the reason I breathe is you
Boy you've got me blinded
Oh pretty baby, there's nothin’ that I wouldn't do
That's not the way I planned it'
Then Lindsay stopped it.
"Lindsay, this is really-really good!" Rachel exclaimed.
"Well, thanks..." Lindsay said blushing.
"I can't believe you did that without my permission!!! You had no right to do that!!" Lindsay yelled at Taylor, Isaac, and Zac.
"Well, its not like you woulda given it to us any way!" Taylor said.
"Exactly! So why did you do it?" She asked.
"Well, we thought that you were good and..." Zac started
"We wanted our parents to hear you. Ok?" Isaac interrupted
"Well, if you woulda asked then maybe I would've!" She exclaimed.
"Now let's go to a movie!" she said trying to get her mind off the subject.
"Let's see it again!" Lindsay and Rachel said after they got out of seeing 'Varsity Blues.'
"You two only wanna se it because of James Vanderbeek!" Zac said.
"Well, then we could go see RugRats." Rachel suggested.
"NO!" They all shouted at once.
"What? Do you think it's too childish?" Lindsay asked
"No, we just don't want to be drivin' hearing about how cute Tommy is, or 'A baby's gotta do, what a baby’s gotta do!!" Isaac exclaimed.
"Well, fine!" Rachel said.
"Poopieheads." Lindsay said under her breath
"How unusual, my mother isn't home." Lindsay said sarcastically.
Rachel laughed.
"So, wanna stay the night?" Lindsay asked
"Sure, why not?"
"I dunno... Why not?" Lindsay answered as she yawned.
While Lindsay was putting on her pajamas Rachel called the Hanson.
"Hey guys... it’s me Rachel. I gotta make this quick. So what’s up?" she whispered into the phone.
"Oh gee. It's the one who spoiled the plan!" Taylor snapped.
"Listen, I did that for a reason!" She said back "But still, what did your parents think?"
"Well, they said that if Linz agreed then she could get a singing contract. We already have a meeting with Mercury Records for her." Taylor answered.
"That's great!" she said "She's comin' gotta go." and hung up.
"Who were you talking to Rachel?" Lindsay asked suspiciously.
"Wha? Uhh... No one, uhh. Why??" she managed to get out.
"Just wondering." She said shrugging.
"Let's call the Hanson’s." Lindsay said picking up the phone.
"Uhh... Why?" Rachel asked, "Let's keep it a girls night."
"Ok... wanna call Shann and Carrie then? They will be coming in a couple days." Lindsay said smiling
"Ok." Rachel said. "It'd be nice to know what they sound like and stuff."
