Chapter One
"Josh? I haven't been called that in a long time!" Josh said.
"Josh.." Mandi said, backing up fearfully.
She felt herself hit someone. She turned to see Skyler.
"Sky.. It's Josh.." she whispered.
"You can call me JC. Do I know you?" Josh said.
"JC?" she asked, backing up farther, not noticing she was talking.
"JC? Josh? JC.." she tried to comprehend.
"Josh? Mandi, who is Jo... OH MY GOD!!" Skyler exclaimed.
"Sky.. It's Josh.." Mandi repeated.
"JC, what is your last name?"
"Chasez."
"Mandi! It's not Josh!" Skyler told her friend.
"Josh? You aren't Josh?" Mandi asked, looking up hopefully.
"I'm Josh, but I don't think I'm the one you are so scared of."
Mandi relaxed and stepped forward. "I'm so sorry.. but you look so much like him." she explained. "I'm Mandi."
"I'm JC. Nice to meet ya!" JC said, shaking her hand.
"I'm Skyler. Do you know that guy over there?" she asked, pointing to a guy with light brown hair walking towards them.
"Yeah.. his name is Justin." JC said.
"How old is he?" she asked happily.
"Eighteen."
"EIGHTEEN??? Is he on freaking steroids? He's HUGE!" Skyler shrieked.
"You are so rude!" Mandi exclaimed.
JC laughed. "We pick on him about that all the time. But he isn't on them."
"Hey JC!" he exclaimed. He looked at Mandi and Skyler. "Hello.."
"Skyler and Mandi, this is Justin. Justin, this is Mandi and Skyler." Jc said.
"Hey," Mandi said.
"Hey!" Skyler smiled.
"Hey!" Justin said, just as enthusiastic.
"So.. are you two girls trying out for spots on the dance thingie?" JC said.
"Thingie?" Skyler giggled.
Mandi stifled her giggle. "Yeah."
"Well.. We wish you the best of luck, don't we Justin?"
"Yep!" Justin said, putting his arm around Skyler's shoulders.
"I can just see you two dancing your little hearts out on MTV.." he said smiling.
"Umm.. yeah." Skyler said.
"I need Justin Timberlake, JC Chasez, Lance Bass, Joey Fatone and Chris Kirkpatrick to come backstage please." a voice said over the intercom.
"Bye bye!" JC and Justin said as they walked away.
*~*Thirty Minutes Later*~*
"OK.. Now, if your last name begins with A, B, C or D, then go with Joey. If you're last name begins with E, F, G, H, I or J, go with Lance.." the woman said. "K, L, M, N O and P go with Justin."
Skyler smiled and skipped off happily with a couple of other girls and guys and Justin.
"Q, R, S, T U and V go with Chris. And the rest go with JC."
Mandi smiled, walking up behind JC with a couple of other girls.
She looked at her group. Five guys including JC and five girls including herself.
'Hmmm..' she thought. 'If I play right, I might get to dance with JC!'
"All right, i'm gonna pair y'all up and teach ya the moves. OK, everyone tell your last name." Jc said.
"Wall." one girl said.
"White." a guys called out.
"You two together." JC said. He sighed. "You two." he pointed at two people. "You two. You two and I guess that leaves me and you, huh?" he asked with a smile at Mandi.
"Guess so." she smiled back.
