Chapter 2

It Was Another Year Before I Seen Taylor Again. They Became Big Stars And Without Control, Forgot About The First Groups Of Girls They Met. I Was Standing In Line To Buy Tickets. They Were In The Middle Of The "Albertane Tour" And Making A Stop In My Hometown. I Didn't Have To Drive All The Way To Louisiana This Time. I Remember The Day We Met Hanson Like It Happened An Hour Ago. I Bought A New Middle Of Nowhere CD The Next Day So I Could Frame The One They Signed. I Stood With Chrissy And Skylar. The Others Lost Interest In Hanson When *N'Sync Came Out. Amanda's "Undying Love" For Zac Quickly Shifted To J.C Chasez. We Were Standing In Line For 5 Hours Before The Store Finally Opened. It Wasn't Very Organised and They Didn't Know What Else To Do Besides Give The First Person In Line, First Priority. We Were Third, It Was Great. We Got Our Tickets, FOURTH ROW! We Started To Have Flashbacks Of Our Great Seats In Louisiana. "Remember When We Met Them?" Chrissy Asked. "No Chris, I Forgot!" Skylar Blurted Out. I Laughed And Chrissy Looked Away. "Aw, Chris, She Was Jus Kidding, Of COURSE We Remember Meeting Hanson." I Tried To Cheer Her Up. Lucky For Me, Chrissy's Simple Minded And Cheers Up Easily. We Walked Around The Mall For A While And Talked About Meeting Hanson And How Much Fun We'll Have At The Concert. "Im Glad Julie Doesn't Like Them Anymore. She Used To Tell Me That Because Isaac's 17 That He Wouldn't Like Me!" Skylar Said Getting Visibly Angry. Julie Was Bad For Thinking That She Was Better Then Everyone. We'd All Known Each Other Our Whole Lives And She Thought That Because She Was The Oldest By A Month, She She Knew Everything. "Yeah Just Cause She's Aloud To Dye Her Hair And Wear Makeup Doesn't Mean Anything!" Chrissy Chimed In. Chrissy's Mom Told Her She Had To Wait Until She Was 16 For Both. My Mom Told Me A While Ago That I Could But I Didn't Want To Hurt Chrissy's Feelings, Neither Did Skylar. "Yea…" Skylar Said Looking At Me. "Anyways, Now Itz Even! I Like Taylor, Skylar Likes Isaac And Chrissy You Like Zac! A Hanson For Each Of Us!" I Tried To Change The Subject. We All Giggled. "Lets Have A Sleepover!" Chrissy Suggested. We All Agreed And Decided On My House. My Parents Liked When I Had Friends Over Because It Kept My Brother And Me From Fighting. They Went Home To Ask They're Parents And Get Bags Ready. I Ran Into My House And Threw My Backpack Down. "MOM! DAD! I GOT FOURTH ROW!" I Shouted Through The House. My Mom Came Out Of The Kitchen Drying Her Hands. "Really Hunny? Wow That's Great!" She Kissed The Top Of My Head. "Congrats Kiddo! You'll Be Able To Count Taylor's Pre-Pubescent Pimples!" My Dad Joked. "Ha Ha!" I Said As I Walked Up The Stairs. "Count His Pimples…" I Muttered. Then I Stopped. Maybe I'd Be Close Enough To See His Freckles Again! I Smiled To Myself. I Had Never Told Anyone About That. Everyone Would Think I Was Nuts To Be That Intrigued By Freckles. But There Was Just Something About Them. Something I Cant Explain.
