Chapter 21
Mandi felt a little weird that she had told Lance, of all people, her deepest
secret.
"Don't tell anyone, Lance! Especially JC!" she cried into his shoulder.
"I'm not," he assured her.
"Only you and Skyler know," she said.
"I won't tell, and I know Sky won't." he said.
"Thanks," she said, standing up.
"Come on, we have to go warn the guys about Joey's Hoey!" she said.
"Joey's Hoey?" Lance asked, raising his eyebrows.
Mandi laughed and swung the backpack she'd somehow stuffed all her stuff into
over her shoulder.
"Sheena, duh!! Come on, Lance!" she said, pulling him up and wiping her
tears off her cheeks.
She followed him out the door, locking it behind her.

"BEWARE OF JOEY'S HOEY!!" Mandi exclaimed as Sheena walked through the door.
"Joey has a hoey?" she asked, stopping to think about it. "What's a hoey?"
Joey grinned. "A hoey is a..."
"JOEY!" Sheena, Justin, Mandi and Lance yelled.
"What?" he asked, smiling innocently.
Mandi rolled her eyes.
"Hey," Lance said, looking around the room. "Where's JC?"
"Oh, Lou called him down to do some kind of autograph thing at a radio
station." Justin said.
Mandi shook her head. "Isn't this supposed to be you guys' break? He needs
to be more.." she looked for the right word.
"Nice?" Joey asked.
Sheena gave him a weird look.
"What?" he asked again.

JC looked around the radio station parking lot with wide eyes.
He smiled at the girl that came up first for an autograph.
Her eyes widened and for minute JC thought she was frozen stiff.
"M-m-my name is Melinda," she said.
"Hey Melinda! I'm JC!" he said, taking the pictuire from her.
"Like, no duh!" the girl behind her said.
JC laughed and handed Melinda the picture back.
"T-thanks!" she said, running off.
He smiled at the other girl. "And your name is?"
"Sonya!" she said
"Hey Sonya, I think you know my name, right?" he asked, grinning.
"YEAH!" she said.
He laughed and handed her the picture.
A guy walked up ans smiled at him. "I'm Harvey." he said.
JC smiled. "Is it for you or a friend?" he asked.
"Me," the Harvey said.
"It's nice all of our fans aren't just female," JC said as he signed the
autograph.
"Oh, yeah.. I can see how horrible it is to have practically the whole female
population chase after you." he said sarcasticly.
JC laughed. "You have no idea."
Harvey laughed and took the picture JC was holding out to him.
