A week later, Alex was in her dressing room, getting ready for the charity show with her 4 dancers.
"Um, Linna, do you know who is on after me? I never got a schedule." Ales asked as her stylist, Eric fixed her hair.
"Nope. None of us got a schedule either. What colors are we wearing tonight?" Linna replied as her, Alice, Ebony and Melanie looked through the dancer wardrobe.
"Baby blue and silver." Alex recalled as Eric finished pulling her hair into a tight ponytail.
"Thanks." Ebony said with her Spanish accent as she ran a comb through her long straight black hair.
"Ebony. How did you get blessed with thin hair?" Alice laughed, looking at her own curly brown mop of hair.
"At least neither of you have wavy, frizzy red hair." Melanie giggled.
"You three shut up. We all know I have it worst, with short brown, blah hair." Linna told everyone. The other three dancers began to nod and giggle.
"All of you be quiet. I'm going to the cafeteria for water. Anyone want anything?" Alex asked.
"Coke!"
"Pepsi!"
"Orange Gatorade!"
"Dr. Pepper!"
The four replies came.
"Okay." Alex laughed and left. AS she walked in and got everyone's orders, she saw someone come in, gasp, and then leave quickly.
'Must have been a psycho fan." Alex shrugged it off.
Brian ran down the hall towards the guy's dressing room.
'I sure hope Nick is there.' Brian thought to himself.
He burst into the dressing room and saw Kevin, AJ and Howie sitting there.
"If you're looking for Leighanne, she and Amanda went for food." AJ said, nor looking up from his newspaper.
"No. Damn, where's Nick?" Brian asked, out of breath.
"Next room. Watch out. He's there with Serenity." Kevin told his cousin as he concentrated on the game of chess he and Howie were indulged in.
"Check mate." Howie said, surprising Kevin.
"Thanks." Brian said, then walked out into the hall and opened the door.
"Oh, Serenity." Nick moaned as his girlfriend rubbed him through his jeans, her shirt opened.
"Nick…" Brian said, clearing his throat.
Nick and Serenity both jumped up and grew red in the face.
"Brian…Ah, um. What do you want?" Nick asked as he stood in front of Serenity so that she could do her shirt up.
"I have to talk to you. Alone." Brian said, then walked into the hall, Nick following.
"What was so important that you had to pull me away from that?" Nick asked, a little pissed off. He ran his hand through his short blond hair.
"Did you look over the list of performers?" Brian asked. Nick shook his head no. "Well you may want to look at it and see who is on before us. And she actually showed up" Brian said, then pushed the paper in Nick's face.
Nick pulled the paper away and read it. As soon as his eyes finished skimming over it, Nick's face turned a deathly pale and tears began to form in his eyes.
"I…I…I gotta go." Nick whispered then ran away from Brian.
