" Sure fine with me."
At dinner everyone was seated at their normal seats. As soon as Justin sat down in a chair Mandy and Tina sat on both sides of him.
" Justin it is so cool to have you here. We are going to become the bestest friends and-"
" Mandy come on he’s normal like you and me." a skinny black girl pipped up from her seat. Justin looked at her to see who had blown off Mandy. He smiled a thankful smile at her and nodded. "I'm Markita." She introduced herself from across the table.
" Umm Justin can you help me for a minute?" Christine asked from the kitchen. Justin stood up with out a word and walked to the kitchen.
" You wanted me?" he said softly.
" Um....I just want you to know their not all like Mandy and Tina. Marki(ta) is a very nice girl and i’m sure you and her would get along. I apologize for Mandy’s behavior."
" It’s fine. Everday stuff."
Christine pointed tward a bowl, "And could you carry that to the table for me?"
"Sure." Justin reacehed over and grabbed the bowl. Justin appeared from the kitchen to see all but two chairs were full. His original seat and one next to Marki. Christine came out and sat in between Tina and Mandy for the Justin's sake.
All 14 girls put food on their plates, except Markita, and of course, Justin.
" Markita you know the rule. Justin your new so you don’t. You HAVE to eat something at this table. At least two spoonfuls." They both sighed and grabbed the mash potatoe bowl. They smiled at each other and the young pop sensation handed the bowl over to his sorta new friend.
After dinner Christine lead him to his new room. " Now if it is the absolute neccasary that you can not stay in this room a new roomate will be assinged." Justin nodded. Christine had a sad expression for Justin not talking.
" Hey Andree you have a new roomate now."
Justin walked in to see half of the room with alternative band's posters plastered on the walls, giving it a touch of personal style. The girl was scarecely thin and she was streched out on the small bed, adorned with huge black jeans and a Pantera T-Shirt and was completely engrossed in a Alternative magazine. Justin mumbled something to himself and put his bag on the bed not occupied.
" Oh heck no!" the girl cried. " You can’t do this to me Christine! Pair him up with Mandy the kid worships him i despise him! He’s a male version of Mandy and Tina!"
"Andree-"
"Its A.J., Christine, you know that.." A.J. rolled her eyes and went back to the magazine that was in her hands.
Christine sighed and went back to what she was saying. "You don’t know Justin. I gaurentee you he is not like Mandy. I don’t think anyone is......" Christine trailed off. Her grey eyes looked with Justin’s and she saw no emotion whatsoever.
"Lights out at 11:00 and breakfast is at 9:00. Marki and Elizabeth are next door, and no one is on the otherside since your the last room at this hall. A basketball court is located behind the house." Justin's eyes brightened slightly at the sound of a Basketball court in the location. "I will see you all tomorow." Christine shut the door.
"They will pay for this." Justin muttered as he tossed his bag on the floor next to the bed and sat down upon it.
"Lets get things straight, Blondie, this is MY room your renting a bed. I don’t want to see any posters of your little girlfriend Britney or anything like that you got me?" She tossed a magazine she was reading onto the night stand beside her.
"No problem." he said quietly.
"Andree Jean be nice!" Elizibeth shouted from behind the opening door."
"Do you have my cd?" Elizabeth peeked her head out of the door that linked them together.
"No why would i have any of your crap?" A.J. tossed a sour look Elizabeth's way.
"I dunno just a thought." Elizabeth shrugged. "Hey your Justin right?" she turned toward the male.
"Yeah."
"Nice to meet you." she smiled warmly, "And a word of the wise. Never go in room two."
"Why?" Justin raised a brow and asked questioningly, sticking to the one word phrases.
" Unless you want to see your face plastered all over the walls and everything...It’s Mandy’s room."
" Oh."
Marki's head peeked in the room to see why the door was opened. "Oh hey Justin didn’t know you had this room." she said as she walked in.
" Yeah."
" I heard that you like basketball wanna go play some one on one?" Justin sighed and thought about it.
What else do you have to loose?
