"Shut the hell up I'm not going to the Hansons house to have dinner and thats it!" 
shouted Madeline.
"Dear we have lived in Tulsa over two months now...and whenever we go near the Hansons 
you freeze.  I thought you were a fan," said her mother.
"Mum I was..I am a fan but just coz they're our neighbours doesn't mean I need to know 
them personaly," shouted Madeline.
Any girl would dream to be there friend," said her Mum "..plus they have a one month 
vacation," she continued
"Listen I'm ugly, they'd hate me and I know it," said Madeline 
"You are a VERY beautiful girl," smiled her mum
"Yeah thats why I have not had a boy friend since...Mark," she sighed
"Thats coz its the summer holidays and you sit on youer butt on the damn computer 
all day," shouted her mum.
"Maybe coz we left LA and came to Tulsa, boring old town," replied Madeline
"Dont use that one with me you are coming tonight and thats it," said her mum 
leaving the room.
"yeah and embarass myself," she whispered to herself.

Madeline was a seventeen year old girl. She loved Hanson but since she moved next door 
to them in Tulsa a couple of months ago he ried avoiding them as much as possible. 
When they tried to come over she told her mum to make excuses. She just had 
to look in the mirror once and her decision was made. She wasn't pretty at all so she thought. 
Her hair was boring and brown and her eyes big brown. She has just got her bracess off 
but her teeth still werent perfect as she got them off early. As much as she dreamed about 
meeting Hanson in the past this is one thing she couln't do. But was being forced to. 
           

"Madeline we are going to be late!" shouted her parents. She walked down stairs wearing a 
short black skirt knee high boots tank top with a black plastic jacket. she also wore a 
basketball cap.
"Dear take off the ridiculous cap, pointed her father 
"No!!!!" demanded Madeline  
"Why dear?" asked her mum 
"So it hides my ugly face" replied Madeline 
"Take it off now!" 
She threw the hat off like a frizby and followed her family next door to the Hansons. 
        
They knocked at the door. Madeline was so nervous and felt sick. She'd never had a proper 
conversation with them...well not really. Once she bumped into Ike when she was on her 
rollerblades when he tried to talk to her she froze and ran of. Then once she noticed Tay 
wave to her in the mall and she ran the oppisite direction hoping he didnt look at her and 
think she was ugly. 

Then a couple of times she saw Zac and he tried to start conversation but she just made up 
excuses and ran off. She wished she was only  bit prettier than maybe it would be so hard. 
She walked into the house and everyone was already seated at the table. She sat beside her 
mother. When she looked up she noticed Ike sitting right opposite her. she tried to cover 
her face with her long think hair. Through dinner at first she noticed Ike tay and Zac 
looking at her but then they stopped.  
"I bet they think I'm some ugly loser who thinks shes gorgeous so shows up here all 
dressed up," she said to herself. 
After dinner the adults decided to have coffee and her brother ran off with the Hansons. 
"Um hi do you wanna come watch a video with us?" asked Ike. 
Madelin didnt even look directly in his eyes 
"Um no sorry," she replied 
"It beets sitting with adults!" he smiled 
"Well I'm really tired i think 'll go next door to sleep," replied Madeline as she ran 
out the door. 
Ike went upstairs. 
"Wheres Madeline?" asked Tay 
"home!" replied Ike 
"umm why?" asked Zac 
"Beets me," frown Ike 
"IS she a Hanson hater?" asked Ike looking at her brother Tom
"Well....no she loves you guys I thought so anyway," replied Tom
"Well um so lets put on the movie," said Ike as they all watched Scream in silence.
            
Madeline sat on her bed crying heaps.
"Why was I such akid, why?" she asked her self over and over again. She had no idea what to do. 
She logged onto her internet.

Madeline logged off the chat and typed in Hanson stories. 
She was so depressed she read a whole story in the matter of on hour. 
"Amy relised she was so happy that she finally found the Hanson of her dreams 
and they both loved eachother," she finished reading the story and shut down her computer. 

"Those stories are so full of shit," she said as she heard her family coming home. 
She quickly turned off her light and pretended to be asleep with her clothes on.
