She walked up with Taylor because she needed to be shown where the room is. Taylor said when that time came that he would tell her what he wanted. She just hoped it was nothing like what she read in his journal.
"Ready to see your little precious Isaac?" He said after they checked her room and grabbed the extra keys off of the table in the room and made sure her dress was there. "Yeah, bring him on!" And Taylor pushed the door open and as a joke Sarah cried out, "Avon calling!" Isaac and Zac jumped off the bed. Zac ran over to her first, "SARAH!" And he just about tackled her to the ground. She smiled and gave him a kiss on the forehead, "hey Zac man, what's going on?" "Nothing, want to watch Dumb and Dumber with us? It's actually a documentary on my older brothers on what they'll be like in about 10 years." Isaac took a pillow off of the bed and smacked Zac in the head with it. "OUCH!" He cried and turned around, "didn't you have enough the first time?" And Zac jumped on his brother and tackled him to the ground with a thud. Sarah and Taylor started cracking up and trying to pull them apart from hurting one another.
Isaac stood up and pulled the hair tie out of his hair and let it flow loose. "Hey Sarah!" And he reached out for her and she hugged him around the waist leaned up to kiss him. Zac's upper lip curled, "please get a room!" And Taylor started laughing and him and Zac were making slurping and sucking noises and Sarah and Ike broke apart laughing.
Isaac took Sarah's hand, "let's go to your room because I want to see your dress." Taylor, leaning on there beds scanning a magazine spoke up, "I bet that's the reason all right." Ike's jaw dropped and Sarah started laughing and hiccuped. "Sorry, Ike, got to agree with your brother. I've got a better idea though. I want to surprise you that day. How about we wait." "Fine, hey! There's a pool on the ground floor outside. Let's go swimming." Zac jumped off the chair, "yeah!" And he ran into his room to put on his swimming suit. Taylor groaned, "come on Ike . . .let's not." "What, afraid you aren't as buff as I am?" Taylor just looked at him and then got up laughing, "yeah ok, I'm coming . . . buff? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Ike just looked at his brother through a twisted mouth and squinting eyes. Sarah laughed, "I'll go put my swimming suit on." She left the room and proceeded down a few doors to her room.
She ran a brush through her hair. She was ready to swim, she shaved that morning so she was ok. She decided to leave her hair down. She grabbed a towel and then realized she couldn't go swimming because of her stitches, she could get it infected. She was upset slightly but decided to just tan instead. She was grateful because in her bathing suit she looked white, ugly, and pasty. Besides, she'd look better in her dress with a tan.
She wrapped the towel around her waist and opened the door. She took two steps before someone whistled. She turned around in surprise searching for the cat caller. She just about passed out at the sight in front of her. There was Joey, Justin, and Lance from Nsync. They were all hitting Joey, obviously he was the guilty party. She couldn't believe she was meeting all these famous people. "Hello." She figured she would be polite and at least go over and talk to them. "Hey! Sorry about Joey, he has some issues." Lance said hitting him once more and Joey started laughing. "Yeah, I'm sorry about that. That was rude of me!" He said laughing trying to keep Lance from attacking him again. "That's ok . . . I think . . . anyway are you going to the MTV Awards also?" They grinned, "yeah." Justin added. She couldn't keep her eyes off Justin. Her mind was screaming Justin and her heart Ike. She tried to think of something to say, "that's pretty cool. I'm going to be there also." "Yeah, we kinda figured because just about everyone out of town is staying here." Lance said finally standing still. "Oh, well, I didn't really think of that." She said turning a weird shade of red and purple. Justin tried to help her out. "I think it's cool you're staying here. So how old are you, 18, 19?" She shook her head, "I'm 17." Justin looked at her in shock, "wow, you seriously don't look younger then I am." She smiled, "well unfortunately I am." Joey looked at the watch on his wrist. "You guys, we have to get down there soon. We have to practice and then after that we have to head over to the Radio City Music Hall and practice everything." Lance and Joey started walking away. "I'll be right there you guys!" Justin called and they just shrugged and left. He turned his attention back to Sarah. "Well, you better get going because I don't want to get you in trouble with the rest of your group." "It's fine, I'm in no hurry. They just love to be early for things but it never happens because I'm always later and so are the other two." Sarah laughed, "never in time for anything. That seriously sounds like me on a school day." He laughed a little, "so where are you from? A neighboring state?" "Actually, I'm from Tulsa Oklahoma." "So you're here with Hanson?" "Yeah, how did you guess?" "Think about it, what are the chances of it being anyone else and being from Tulsa?" She smiled and chuckled a little, "you have a point there." "So as friends or are you one of their dates?"
Sarah and Hanson were off to the pool. Sarah felt sick to her stomach. She couldn't believe she had just done what she did. She would be crying but couldn't in front of them without telling them and that was the last thing that she wanted to do. Zac slowed down so he was right behind her and attacked her back, "slacker!" And she just about jumped a mile into the air. "What the heck?" And she nervously laughed and looked away. "What's wrong?" "What do you mean? Nothing's wrong? Why do you think something's wrong?" Zac looked at her weird, "Calm down! Something is wrong, tell me!" She quickly lied to him, "I kind of feel bad, here you guys are swimming and I can't!" "Well, I won't swim so I can hang out with you." She smiled, "That's ok Zac! Go ahead and swim!" "Nah, if you're going to be upset then just forget about it. We can swim any other time when you're not with us." "Well thank you for making me feel bad about this." "No, I don't mean for you too I'm just saying that . . ." She slung her arm over Zac's shoulder and gave him a kiss on the cheek, "I know what you meant, it's fine. I need a tan anyway. I gotta look sexy in that dress of mine." "Oh, so you're also going to be puttying o the make-up also huh?" She looked at him with a blank expression, "I'm going to pretend I did NOT hear that." "Ok, you go ahead and pretend." He slipped himself out of her arm and ran full speed and she ran after him.
