Chapter 5

Lilia waas getting ready for night on the town with Howie. She looked cute in a simple knee length black dress and strappy sandal. Howie wouldn't tell her where they were going to go, only that she would love it.
At exactly 7pm Howie stolled up to her door. He had a purple shirton and black pants being held up by suspenders. Lilia became elated when she saw him because she could tell by the way he was dressed that they were going to go swing dancing. She had always wanted to go swing dancing and couldn't wait to get her feet on the floor. Howie rang the doorbell. Lilia tooka deep sigh and then answered. "Hi," she said in a somewhat sexy voice.
"Well, hello, may I escort you to dinner?" He asked extending his arm. Lilia paused for a momment pretending that she was reconsidering their date.
"Yah, I guess," she said finnally.
The two began their date. They went to a Mexican restaurant that was Howie's absolute favorite. The proceded to to the classiest and most exciting dance club she had ever layed eyes on. It was far better than any dream she could have ever created in her imagination.
The night went very fast, and both Howie and Lilia found themselves not wanting it to end. "So did you enjoy yourself?" Howie asked her as they approached her front door.
"Yes, I enjoyed myself much more than I thought I was going too," she teased. Howie looked a little hurt by Lilia statement.
"I'm only kidding, Howie," she assured him. This perked Howie up a bit.
The two talked on her front porch for a quite some time, but eventually they exchanged their goodbyes. Howie even ended the evening with a good night kiss on her cheek. Whe she got inside to her rented condo she wanted so much to be happy.
She was happy, she had a dream job, and she just went out on a date with one of the world's most desired young bachelors. But something just wasn't right. The idea of secretly dating two members of the same band was all very strange and somewhat disturbing to her.
Chapter 6

At exactly 10 am the next morning Nick Carter arrived at Lilia's house. "Hey," she greeted him.
"Hey you, so are you ready for the time of your life?" He inquired.
"As ready as I'll ever be, you know I've never been to Disney World. It's always been a dream of mine to go." Nick was happy that Lilia chose to spend her dream with him.
"So did you have a good time last night?" Nick asked as they were driving towards the park.
"Yah it was a lot of fun, we went dancing and to dinner. It was great just what I needed."
"Who did you go with again?" Nick asked realizing that he had no idea who she had spent the evening with.
"Rita, she's so cool. Were a lot of like." Lilia felt bad about lying to Nick, but she wasn't sure what to do. She didn't think he was ready to hear about her and Howie, and she wasn't even sure if it was really any of Nick's buisnes who she was out with at this momment.
Finnally, after they drove what seemed to be a very long time, the arrived at the "Magic Kingdom." Once they were inside the park they went crazy! The park was better than anything Lilia could cook up in her imagination. They took pictures with Mickey and Minnie, they rode almost all the rides, they even stayed long enought to see the light parade at the end of the day. "Hey, Lily, I have something for yah, I got it at the gift shop." Nick said as the walked out of the park.
"Oh really?" She asked somewhat surprised. Nick reached into his bag and pulled out a pair of Mickey Mouse ears with the word
"Lily" engraved on the side. "Oh, Nick, I love it," she said trying to hold back the tears that were forming in her eyes. Nick's faced lit up with a huge smile.
"Hey, how would you like to go over to my house we can watch Disney movies or something," Nick suggested not really wanting the night to end.
"Sure, it sounds like fun. Do you have the Fox and the Hound, that's my favorite."
"Yep I do, I have practically all of them," he told her prouldly.
When the arrived at Nick's house they saw somebody sitting on the porch, but couldn't tell who it was. "Probably some fan," Nick said.
"This late at night?" Lilia asked somewhat frightened by this. Nick just nodded, as he left the car and walked closer to the porch they could see that it was Brian, and he was crying. "Hey, Bri, what's wrong?"
Nick asked taking a seat next to him. "Laurie, just broke up with me. I mean what's wrong with me this is the third relationship that I have screwed up in the last yeart," he said sadly.
Lilia hated to see Brian being this hard on himself and to do something to make him feel better. "Listen, Brian, it's not your fault?"
"What are you doing here?" He asked just realizing that Lilia was standing there this whole time.
"Oh we just got back from Disney World. Listen, Bri, you can't let a girl get you down like this. You know I'm gonna let you in a little secret, sometimes girls are not as ready for relationships as we want people to think we are. A lot of times we are just as confused as everyone else is." Brian started to feel a bit better and wiped the tears from his eyes.
"Look, Nick, why don't you take me home?" Lilia asked not really feeling like watching movies at this point. Nick nodded, and asked Brian if he was going to be okay, and the two decided to meet in the morning for breakfast. When they arrived at Lilia's house Nick walked her up to the door.
"That was really great what you did for Brian tonight." Nick told her honestly.
Lilia smiled as what he said. "I'm just glad I could help a bit, I mean I felt bad just sitting there and not doing anything to make him feel any better." Lilia met Nick's blue eyes and the two exchanged a kiss, but she moved away very quickly.
"I have to go," she said quickly and with in seconds she dissappeared from the porch. Tears of confusion began to pour from her eyes.
