*Untitled*..::..Chapters 1 thru 3

It all began two years ago. Straight out of high school, my two best friends, Kaitlyn (Kait) and Skylar (Sky), and I, Jordan (Jo), got a record deal and contract with Jive Records. We were so excited. We had always loved to sing and everyone said we had great voices; now it was our turn to test our skills.

We had our first concert the following week in Orlando and then we had TRL the next day. Then we went on our first tour a few days later. We were still getting used to going everywhere in a limo and staying in condos. We truly weren't used to this atmosphere. We had grown up in Raleigh, N.C.

Today, we're going to the recording studio, where we are working on our first album, Peace and Harmony. We had already recorded our first 8 songs and had 4 more to go. When we got there, we headed down the hallway to our room. I felt like I was being watched. I turn and Justin, Joey, and Chris (of NSync) were looking our way. My jaw dropped, then I was yanked into the room by Skylar, who apparently didn't see what I saw.

It took us all day and evening to record. Meanwhile, the guys of NSync had to record that day also and ended up staying almost as long as we had to. By the time we had changed into our clubbin' clothes, they (NSync) were walking out the door. Now that Sky and Kait had seen them, they started to freak.

"OMG! Do you know who that was??!!"-Sky.

Kait was practically drooling.

"Yeah, I saw them earlier. I almost passed out, but we should just try to stay calm."-Jordan.

So, they finally calmed down and we proceeded out the door, to our limo. I started to talk to Skylar and Kait, but our attention kept getting drawn toward them. Then, out of nowhere, all three of us burst out laughing b/c we could not hold the anxiety any longer. Oh, how it was so easy to humiliate ourselves. After getting into the limo, I was a little disappointed that we didn't at least get to speak to the guys, but maybe we would someday.

A little while later, we made it to the non-alcoholic club.

"Whoa, this place is neat!"-Kait.

"Yeah, let's go."-Jo.

We had to walk past a lot of people that were waiting and a few people that were snapping pictures like crazy. *Thank God for our bodyguards* We knew someone famous was here, b/c we weren't that popular yet.

We went in and got seated. I was still wondering who was here. Then, I saw Him out of the corner of my eye. His angelic face with those gorgeous blue eyes and the way his hair managed to shine in the revolving, multi-colored lights, and every other noticeable part of him.

"Jordan! Come back to the real world. We were just talking about the tour, any input?"-Sky.

"Uh, great. I'm gonna dance now. Besides, we came here to stop worrying about work and have fun, so C-Ya later."-Jo.

"Ok."-Kait-"What's up with her?"

"I dunno, but we'll find out...eventually."-Sky.

Meanwhile, I made my way to the dance floor and began dancing. Cher's "Believe" was on, and even though I didn't like the song, I felt like dancing. After the song ended, I walked over to the bar and got a Mountain Dew. I sat down on a stool and began to scan the various varieties of different people dancing.

Then, I saw him...again. Our eyes met this time and he started to walk my way. He came over and sat on the stool next to mine and ordered a Sprite. *Meanwhile, I am barely breathing, probably holding my breath. Dear God! How did I get to be lucky enough to end up sitting next to Justin of NSync?!?* I tried to calm down and breath slowly and rhythmically, but I was probably hyperventilating. I mean, I've liked him ever since NSync became famous. I needed to say something, anything while I had my chance, but he beat me to it...

"Hey, I saw you at the studio. Are you in a group?"-Justin asked as he turned toward me and looked into my eyes, waiting for an answer.

"Yeah, my two best friends and I. We were recording our last four songs of our first album."-Jordan. *OMG...He's looking at me....I am less than 2 feet away from him and he's looking at ME!!! Whoa...*

Meanwhile, Kait and Sky had found the rest of the guys and were basically telling them their life story.

I asked Justin to a slow dance (feeling brave) and he said YES!! *OMG...that is like the best feeling in the world...* We danced to Monica's "Angel of Mine" and Brian McKnight's "Back At One". We talked and talked about anything and everything.

*~*~*END OF FLASHBACK*~*~*

Now, we (Justin and I) are a couple. Skylar is with Lance and Kait is with JC. We go on tour with them when we aren't on tour and vice-versa. Our group had become a major success and we even had the privilege to model for CK, Gucci, Nike, Hilfiger, and some others.

Kait and JC are engaged and so are Sky and Lance. Justin and I decided not to go that far yet. We aren't even the legal drinking age yet, so we don't need that kind of responsibility right now.

There has been one semi-constant disruption that keeps coming up, though. I despise her so much, and she always follows Justin around like a lost puppy when she sees him. I get a tad jealous, you might say, and we (she and I) have been in so many fights it's ridiculous, but everytime I think of beating her back into reality, it brings a smile to my face. BRITNEY SPEARS!

Justin keeps trying to make us stop and get along, but it's like trying to mix oil and water. It isn't gonna happen.

Most recently, she's been calling and paging him all hours of the night and day. AH!

Currently, the guys have just finished their last song onstage and I went to search for Britney, which I had been trying to do ever since she came off stage. I just happened to be strolling around with a metal baseball bat. I knocked on her dressing room door. She answered with a smile on her face, which was quickly removed when she saw me.

"Oh, it's you. What do you want?"-Britney said as she turned and walked over to her vanity.

"You know why I'm here. Why can't you leave him alone? He doesn't love you!"-I started screaming.

"He loved me before he even knew you and he still does and he always will!"-Britney threw back.

*Well, that was like a slap in the face...oh, here we go* "Oh, that's it!"- I yelled, then swung the bat, but she ducked and it knocked a lot of her stuff to the floor instead. "Oh, your gonna have to pay for that!"-she yelled. "Just have Justin take care of it since he still loves you and all!"-I yelled back. She started to back up as I went after her, then she tripped over something that had fallen. I raised the b-ball bat over my head and was ready to hit her square in the face. "Bye Bye Barbie!"-I yelled.

She was crying and screaming for me to stop, while I had the biggest smile on my face. Then I swung, and time seemed to stand still, it happened so slow. Then the second it was to hit her face, I was pulled back by Justin and JC pulled her up. The bat fell somewhere on the floor with a loud clang. I tried to pry myself from Justin, so I could hit her, but he held on to me.

"Stop It!!"-Justin yelled at both of us.-"Control yourselves!"

"I hope you freaking die!"-I screamed at Britney.

"You too Brat…"-Britney yelled back through her tears.

"Ooh…that hurt…besides what kinda comeback is that anyway?"-Jordan.

Man was I glad we only have to spend a few more days around her. Everyone walked out to the tour buses. All the guys made sure Britney and I didn’t get to close to one another. We had an extra bus, so it was mandatory that Britney stay on that one and I stay on the other.

I just got on my bus and began getting ready to go to sleep. I knew Justin would wanna give me the dreaded lecture though and I really didn’t wanna hear it and get into a fight now. Tomorrow we have a concert in Jacksonville, Florida, then Tampa, Miami, and finally Orlando.

I was just about to climb into my bunk, but chose to just sit there cause I could see Justin coming.

"Wait a second…What’s your problem?"-Justin.

"My Problem? You’re the one that keeps coming to the rescue."-Jordan.

"You were way over the edge. You could have killed her."-Justin.

"And it seems that you would have been the only one that would have cared. Why are you always on her side? Can’t she fight for herself? And, she needs to quit following us-or YOU- around like a lost puppy. I can’t stand her anymore!"-I exclaimed, tears were streaming down my face and falling to the floor…I figured there’d be a flood any second now…

"DEAL WITH IT!!"-Justin yelled as he stormed back to where the guys (and girls) were.

"Wow, Slapped twice today…"-I whispered to myself as I laid down and tried to go to sleep, but I could hear someone walking toward me, then they peeked into my bunk.

"If it’s Justin or anyone who likes Britney for that matter, then get away from me."-I said while still facing the wall.

"What happened Jo.?"-Kait.

I turned over to face her. "I don’t know what to do. I can’t stand her and he hates me right about now. I love him so much."-Jo. (the tears are streaming like waterfalls).

She put a hand on my shoulder.-"It’ll be alright. You just have to calm down and jealousy doesn’t help the matter."-Kait.

Meanwhile, Justin was unloading to the guys.

"I don’t know what to do. I love her, but she can’t control herself. I’m not gonna give up my friendship with Britney just because she doesn’t like her. She just has to learn to deal with it somehow, or I may have to break up with her."-Justin.

"Wha-What?"-Skylar asked.-"How could you do that to her? She loves you and you know that…or should."

"I love her too, but I can’t stand her when she goes crazy and acts that way."-Justin.

Kait had left me and rejoined the group moments later, but I heard yet another person coming my way.

"Oh Come on, can’t anyone let me alone.."-Jordan.

"We have to talk Jordan."-Justin.

I just laid there in somewhat of a trance, just staring at his face.

"Jordan, either you stop acting like this or it’s over. Got it?"-Justin.

I said nothing. I just stared at the ceiling and tears were forming. I had cried so much that I had a headache.

Well, Jordan, Justin, and Britney mostly ignored each other for the next 4 days. We just performed and went on. Sky, Kait, and Me just kept touring after the Orlando concert. NSync had stopped their tour after Orlando, and so had Britney. In fact, Britney had made it a point to make sure everyone knew that she was with Justin now and everything, and oh, she did gloat….*She makes me sick…* And reportedly, in all the newspapers, it said that He had just came out and admitted that indeed, they were together….*Oh Joy…*

Like, 3 months later, we were put on tour with the BSB for their European tour. Nick and I had become pretty good friends. He kept talking about his one girlfriend, Brittany. He was like totally in love with her. I didn’t really go into detail with him about it though. JC, Kait, Skylar, and Lance had decided to postpone their weddings until after our tours, cause our schedules didn’t quite line up yet.

I’d mostly go and do what I had to and pretty much didn’t hang out with the people like I used to…Kait, Sky, and I had even grown apart a little, cause I couldn’t stand being near them hearing about how their weddings were gonna be and how happy they were. It depressed me.

Then, one day, we (they) decided to have a little talk….*God, I was getting sick of these too…* We were on our tour bus and we were heading to our last concert, which was in Hamburg, Germany, then we’d fly back home for a 3-week break.

"So, Jordan, what’s been up with you lately? I think we should know. You haven’t been yourself since our last tour with Nsync…is it the Justin thing? What’s going on?"-Kait.

They both looked at me, I could feel their eyes burning into my skull, like they could see all the way into my soul.

"Well, I’ll just be blunt with you guys. I can’t stand being on tour anymore. I need this break more than anything, and once it’s over, I’ll be back to the way I was. I just need to get some rest. And as for the Justin thing, I haven’t thought about him since we’ve been on tour over here. You know, you guys talk about your marriages and how happy you are, could you just stop when I’m in the room, cause frankly it makes me sick."-Jordan.

"We feel the same as you do about the tour, cause it’s been nonstop. But, we can’t help it that you aren’t happy. We didn’t make you that way, so we can’t fix it and stop getting aggravated by us since we didn’t do anything to you."-Skylar.

"I knew this would lead to an argument and I don’t wanna do that. Just go on and have a nice little break with your fiancés and just let me know when the group has something to do."-Jordan.

"If you really wanna be in this group, you’ll keep yourself up to date with everything."-Kait.

"Fine."-Jordan said as she walked to the back of the bus and sat next to Nick and AJ and watched them play Nascar on the Playstation. Nick ended up losing the race.

"Aww. Losing your touch Nicky."-Jo.

"He never had the touch, Jo."-AJ. I smiled.

"Hey, Jo., my girlfriend (soon-to-be fiancé) is gonna be at the concert tonight…You’ll finally get to meet her."-Nick.

"Ok, that’s cool. All my friends are getting married except me. MARRY ME AJ!!"-I said as I burst out in laughter.

"Oh, you know I’ve always loved ya Jo."-AJ said as he winked at me.

We made it to the concert venue in Hamburg about an hour later and Kait, Sky, and I had to go to sound-check on stage since we were first…Everything was going fine, then as we were heading off stage to get our outfits on, I thought I saw a familiar face, but when I turned, I didn’t see anyone, so I just walked on into the room to get dressed.

"Well, Gurlies, make this concert great and the next one we have is at TRL, then the American Music Awards...oh, it shall be fun…"-Jordan.

"Yeah, I just wanna get this over with so I can see Lance."-Skylar.

"Oh, I know what you mean."-Kait.

Well, since they were having their own conversation, I decided to go out and look around for Nick…to see if he was done with his sound-check yet. I walk down a hallway and hear a ton of people screaming, so I figure that’s where one of them are…I turn and…I see the same person I saw earlier hurriedly coming my way…It was a girl and she had blonde hair and was quite short…OMG..It’s her…

"Wait, Britney, What are you doing here??"-Jordan.

She turns around and has the same look on her face that I have on mine…

"What are you doing here?"-Britney asks as she sounds nervous.

"Oh, I’m on tour with the Backstreet Boys, what else?? Anywise, you didn’t answer me yet…"-Jordan was interrupted by Nick walking over and hugging Britney…

"Hey Sweetie, I see you’ve met one of my best friends, Jordan. She’s on tour with us. I told her all about you…"-Nick.

"Flattered, I’m sure."-Britney said while glaring at me.

I just glared back.-"Oh yeah, it’s not everyday you get to meet a Superstar."-I said while rolling my eyes.

"Something I bet you’ll never get to be…"-Britney.

"Nick, why don’t you take her and go somewhere. I’m sure you have a few things to talk about."-Jordan said before walking into a room and sitting down on a nearby couch that was in the corner….It was like a 15 minutes later that someone walked in…They were on a cellphone.

"Oh jeez, Mom, can you actually believe He just proposed to me?? Now I have to choose who I want…Oh God, I don’t think I’ll be able to handle this…and guess who says he’s stopping by?…Yeah…and that won’t be pretty…I need to keep them apart…well, I gotta go cause someone is knocking on my door…Bye Maw…"-Britney said as she tossed her phone. I just tried to stay out of the light, so no one would see me. The door opened and in stepped the person I wanted to see the least in the world….Justin….

"OMG Justin!! You’re here…"-Britney said as he hugged her…and all that great stuff…

"Yeah, I just wanted to see you, but you said you just had to be here so you could have a chance to go on tour with your best friend in the world, Nick…so, I decided to surprise you."-Justin.

I decided I had to get out of this room. All this was making me too upset…Too much for my mind to handle…I’m going on overload here. I stood up and walked slowly, yet quick enough, not to be noticed and exited the room. Once out, I was like "whew…"

Then Nick walked up to me…"Hey, Jordan, have you seen Britney? Is she in there? You know I really wish you two would settle your differences cause she’s really a great person…Anyways, have you seen her?"-Nick.

Then, I looked up and noticed that I was standing in front of her dressing room.*Boy am I glad I’m off of this tour after tonight…*

"Um…actually I was looking for her to apologize about earlier, but I haven’t seen her…sorry."-Jordan.*Oh I hated to lie to him, but as much as I’d like to see Britney tore down, I didn’t want to see him get hurt..*

"Ok, well, we just did sound check, so they’re probably looking for you cause you guys will probably start soon…"-Nick.

"Ok, thanks. C-ya."-I said as I walked down the hallway toward the stage entrance. I could hear the crowd chanting our group name. I smiled. That always made me feel good. Finally I saw Kait and Skylar…they were talking to Lance and JC while waiting to go onstage.

"Hey guys, ready to go onstage?"-I asked Kait and Sky.

"Yeah. I can’t wait for this to be over."-Kait said as she turned back to JC.

"OK, well, we got to go onstage now."-I said as I began to walk up the stairs to the stage, but I paused cause I felt someone looking at me. It was Justin. We locked eyes for like a second before I turned and ran out onstage with Kait and Sky behind me.

The whole concert was going great. We sang 2 songs so far and they are both fast dance-style songs because we did the remixed-version of our original song. We were on our 5th and final song of the night and I look up at the VIP boxes, and I see Justin’s babyblues staring back at me. I almost became en-tranced like I always used to, but his intense stare just made me dance and sing better and harder than I had ever before. I had to show him that I could be something on my own, without him by my side, and by the sound of the crowd, I (We) were doing a good job of it.

We finished the song, said our thanks, and headed off the stage and toward our dressing rooms to change while Britney went onstage with her little entourage.

"Well, when we leave guys, I hope you all have a great time with JC and Lance…I am going home to sleep. I am really beat…Just keep in touch with me ok…I really didn’t mean all I’ve been saying these past few weeks…I’ve just been in a bad mood…"-Jordan.

"Aww…We still luv u sissy."-Skylar said as she came over and hugged me.

"I just want you all to know that before we have a break for a while."-Jordan.

"Oh, I think I’m gonna cry…*sniff-sniff*"-Kait…

"Oh, you always were the bawl-baby of the group…haha"-Jordan said, but tears were forming in my eyes too.

"You know what? I think we need a group hug…we haven’t had one of those for a while…"-Skylar.

"I agree."-Kait.

We all hugged each other for what seemed like forever. Then someone walked into the room.

"Excuse me, you girls have to be ready to get on the bus in like 15 minutes…you’re heading straight to the airport from there."-Our driver said.

We all disengaged from our hug and wiped our eyes. –"Well, I guess we should get ready to go then…I’ll try to see if I can say good-bye to Nick first before we go…which I probably won’t, but I’ll try…"-I said as I grabbed by duffel bag, filled with my stuff (including the outfit I just changed out of) and walked out into the crowded hallway…apparently the concert was about over…I walked over to Nick’s dressing room and knocked (cause I really didn’t wanna walk in on anything).

He answered a few moments later. "Hey."

"Hey, I was just getting ready to go cause we’re going back home, so I wanted to say C-ya…"-Jordan.

"Ok, well, I’ll miss you."-Nick said as he hugged me.

"Oh, me too. Just keep callin’ me…It was a fun tour though. I was glad to spend that much time with you. Well, I gotta go now…we have to leave in like 8 minutes." I said after checking my watch.-"Don’t forget to say goodbye to the guys for me."

"Ok. Bye Jordan."-Nick said as he walked into Britney’s dressing room.

*Man, I hope Justin isn’t in there…*Well, now I gotta get out of here before all of these people rush out.

"Jordan!"-I heard someone yell. I didn’t have the time to waste to wait for the person, so I kept at my jogging pace, trying to get out of the building. They were gaining on me though, cause I could hear them behind me.

"Jordan, wait!"-They yelled again, and I stopped, just because I was standing right in front of the exit.

I turned around, "What?!?"

"I wanna talk to you. I saw you on stage and you were great…"-Justin.

"Listen Justin, I have a lot to do…I have to get on the bus in like 3 minutes to go get to the plane back home. I really have no time to stand here and talk to you, so let me go. You did it before, you can do it again. Only this time, it’s easier."-Jordan.

"Wait. I wanna be your friend again, at least. I miss having you as a friend."-Justin.

*Oh jeez, this has got to be a joke…*"Ok, well, if you’re serious about it, you’ll have to call me on my cell, home phone, or page me. I really have to go. Bye."-Jordan.

"C-ya."-Justin.

The ride to the airport was quite long….at least it seemed like it. There was a lot of traffic too. I kept thinking about Justin and whether or not he was serious about what he said. *Does he know about Nick and Britney yet? I wonder…*.

At the airport, there were more fans there than expected....since our music was now being played all over the radios. Sky, Kait, and I just put smiles on our faces and exited the limo, ready to make our 4 hour trip home. It has been a long time since we've been home....since right before we were put on tour with the BSB. That was like 3 or 4 months ago.

All three of us walked over to the fans, who were being held back by our bodyguards, and we signed a few autographs on CD covers, posters, shirts, or whatever they could find. *God, this life is hard, I only wish the fans knew what we had to do to get here today and what our lives were like....but I just hold back my thoughts like usual and go on cause I wanted this life, I worked hard to get it...so why whine about it? Even though it would be nice to be left alone for a while. We wait to get on the plane home for a much-awaited 3 week break which will be interrupted by at least 3 publicists, media, and editors wanting a picture, a story, or something.....God, I need sleep....*

We wave goodbye to our fans as we go through the airport to our plane and get seated. I get seated next to the window, lean my head against the headrest, close my eyes, and think of Justin. It seems he's been taking over my thoughts lately. I think I'm still in love with him, but he hurt me...and *poof* our year and a half together was over....I guess that's why I've been in such a bad mood lately. And, now he says he wants to be in my life again....Why? Just so he can leave again? I don't want that....I don't want to keep getting hurt, but I can't keep myself from checking my pager every few minutes to see if he's paged me and kept his promise...* My eyes flutter open when someone sits down next to me. *God, they have enough cologne on to kill a small army....ah.....I can feel a headache coming on....Oh no, they're crying....* I open my eyes to see who it is, and am once again shocked....it's Justin....

"Justin, what are you doing here?? And, what's wrong??"-Jordan said as she sat up straight in her seat and faced him.

"Jordan? OMG...I didn't know you were here, seriously...Britney is with Nick, they're getting married..."-Justin cried.

"Aww....come on, you need a hug....it's ok....man, he was my best friend too....I never thought he'd do such a thing....He had said his fiancé was a girl named Brittany, but I never thought it was Britney.....oh man.....I'm so sorry J...."-Jordan.

"I loved her Jordan...."-Justin cried onto my shoulder.

*Oh God no....ew....oh, how can he say such a thing.....icky....ah.....* "Uh....really??"-Jordan.

"Yeah."-Justin said as he finally sat back and closed his eyes before falling asleep.

*Oh great...this is really gonna help me sleep...I can't sleep with him right here beside me...I just wish he hadn't have gotten so hurt by all this...Britney is such a bitch....* I decided to keep myself busy by sending Nick a little email on my laptop, before I knew it though, everyone had to wake up, get their seatbelts on, and get ready to land.

"Justin, wake up....we're almost home."-Jordan said as she nudged Justin's shoulder.

He woke up and looked over at Jordan. -"Did I snore?"-Justin.

Jordan laughed-"You little nut....I dunno I guess a little...You just asked that to see me laugh."

"I like your smile. Anyways, what are you gonna be doing when we leave here?"-Justin.

"Uh, I dunno....go home, get a long, hot, steamy bath, and go to SLEEP.....that's all on my schedule....sleep...."-Jordan.

"Ugh.....You little bum....You can't sleep...Come over to my house...we can have some fun..."-Justin.

"Depends on what you wanna do...cause I'm really tired....you may have to carry me off the plane...haha.."-Jordan.

"Ok."-Justin said as he lifted her up over his shoulder and grabbed all of her carry-on stuff before stepping off the plane.

"JUSTIN...put me down.....JUSTIN!!! God, I'm gonna kick your butt.....Let me go!! I can walk...I was just kidding....."-Jordan yelled.

"Oh, ok..."-he said as he gently dropped her...Oops...that is concrete isn't it??...haha..."-Justin.

"Oh, you're gonna be sorry..."-Jordan.

"Yeah I bet."-Justin said as he walked over to the awaiting limo with his bags in hand. Jordan followed.

"Mind if I come to your house?"-Jordan asked.

"Nah...."-Justin said as they got ready to get onto the plane.

"YO JORDAN!!! YOU CAN'T LEAVE US YET!!!"-she heard Skylar and Kaitlyn yell.

"Oh, I almost forgot.....group hug.."-she said as they did their traditional group hug.-"You guys have fun over the break...keep in touch."

"Well, you won't be hearing much from me, cause I see you'll be keeping yourself busy enough without me...."-Skylar said as she looked over at Justin, who was talking to the limo driver.

"Yeah....same here. You go Jordan!!"-Kait said as they all giggled.

"You guys are SO bad...."-Jordan.

"Yeah, well you made us this way..."-Skylar.

They all hugged one more time before Jordan turned and left with Justin. Little did she know what she'd be getting into....

I had Justin drop me off at my house before we went over to his, just so I could drop off my stuff I had with me. We went to Justin's and he decided that we should watch movies.

"Are you hungry?"-Justin.

"Kinda...what do you want?"-Jordan.

"I dunno. What do you want?"-Justin.

"You are no help whatsoever."-Jordan.

"Thanks...I try."-He said as he stuck out his tongue, causing me to roll my eyes.

"Whatever. How about pizza?"-Jordan.

"K. What do you want on it?"-Justin.

"Extra cheese and mushrooms please!"-Jordan said as she kept her gaze on the TV, while he stood and went to order the food.

About five minutes before the pizza was to arrive, Joey decided to visit.-"Hey all, Sup?"

"Not much. Watchin' movies and getting pizza."-Justin.

"Yumm....pizza sounds good. But, I was just wondering if you guys wanted to go clubbing with me. Lance is coming with me but JC and Chris are with these girls, Jenae and Aimee."-Joey.

"Sorry Joey, we're busy."-Jordan.

"That's Ok, cya later then."-Joey said as he left.

"CYA!!"-We yelled.

The pizza came and we pigged out and continued to watch movies. I decided to spend the night since it was getting so late.

The next morning, I woke up on the couch and stretched, then decided to leave. I needed to get a shower and get dressed in clean clothes. So, I left Justin a note on the kitchen table and left, saying I would be back...cause I left in his car and I would need to return it. *grin* I was actually allowed to borrow his car, I was one of the few people allowed to do that.

I got home and saw that the answering machine was blinking as soon as I got in the front door, so I hit play as I walked into my room and proceeded to get a shower. The first message was from Skylar, the next from Kait, saying they had gotten home safely. The next was from our manager saying he had to talk to all three of us about our upcoming schedule after the break. So, no biggies. I got my shower and walked out to my room and got dressed in a pair of black cargo pants and a gray long sleeve shirt. Then, I picked up the phone and made a few calls.

I called Skylar first. "Yo, this is Skylar's place, I am not here right now, but leave a message, and I'll try to get back to ya... BEEP."

"Yo, hey Skylar. I figured you wouldn't be up yet, so I'm leaving this message to say I am home safe and the reason I didn't call sooner was I was at Justin's place. I'll talk to ya later. Bye."-Jordan said as she hung up the phone.

Now, it's Kaitlyn. "Hello."-she said in a groggy-I'm-not-up-yet,-so-what-in-the-hell-do-you-want?- voice.

"Hey! Aren't you up yet?"-Jordan.

"Guess I am now. What do you want?"-Kaitlyn.

"Well, don't sound all happy to hear from me. I just wanted to return your call and say I'm home. Besides, it is 10 AM already, so you should be up."-Jordan.

"Ok thanks. I'm going back to sleep. Bye."-Kaitlyn said as she hung up the phone. She never was a morning person, and I loved to bug her and wake her up.

Next person to call was Justin.-"Hello."

"Hey, I am on my way back. You got my message right?"-Jordan.

"Yeah, just be careful with the car."-Justin.

"Oh, don't worry Justy."-Jordan.

"K, Cya."-Justin.

"Cya."-I said as we hung up the phone. Well, at least he was up. I decided to go get him some breakfast.

I drove over to Denny's and got a coffee while the cooks made his food. There was a little TV up in the corner, so I sipped the coffee and watched some of it. It was on MTV. I've never been to a Denny's where there was a TV with MTV on, but OK. It was just playing music videos at the time. Then, the food was ready. I grabbed the coffee and paid for the food and was on my way out the door, when I heard something that grabbed my attention on the TV.

*This is Brian McFayden with MTV News. We have some interesting news about Pop Princess Britney Spears and her fiance Backstreet Boy Nick Carter. His and her publicists and a few of their friends are now saying the pair are no longer engaged. Britney apparently broke it off, but when our MTV reporters tried to catch up to her to get an interview, she wouldn't release any information about it. That's all for now. More later...This has been Brian McFayden with MTV News...*

I nearly choked on the coffee I had been drinking. 'How can this be?'
