Chapter 10

"Ah ha, found it," said Brian as he swirved towards Jason's car. They were downtown. Brian saw Howie and Kevin, and Nick standing off on the sidewalk. They were supposed to be witnesses for what Brian was doing. They both stopped and Brian rolled down the window, "Hey watch where your going!"

"Yeah, sure, right. This is going straight to the police!" said Brian as he rolled up the window and left. He went around the block and came back to pick up Howie, Kevin, and Nick.

"Hopefully, yes. I think it will. Now, let's go to the police station to get somebody in jail.," said Brian heading towards the police station.

They walked up to the station and went over to the front desk.

"Aren't you one of them Backstreet Boys?" asked the policeman.

"Oh yeah, sure. Now, do you know who it was?" asked the policeman.

"Yes, I do. It's my um.... friend's ex-boyfriend, Jason Shaffer. He's always drunk and he hurts Tiffany. So can you do anything?" asked Brian. He had wanted to say his girlfriend, but decided not to.

"Yeah, I'm sure I can. Do you have the license plate number?" asekd the policeman. Brian gave him the license plate number. "And are these your witnesses?" asked the policeman.

"Who... who is it? Oh AJ, you scared me! Don't do that, and why are you here?" asked Tiffany going to the door to lock it.

"Brian had me come over since your boyfriend is on the run," said AJ sitting down on the couch.

"I see. He does like me doesn't he? I mean he's doing all this stuff for me, and I barly even know him. He's nice, don't get me wrong, it's just, I can't believe he's doing this," said Tiffany.

"Yeah, he does like you Tiffany. He's got all of us helping him," said AJ.

"Hey it is," said Tiffany opening up the door for them all to come in. "So?" asked Tiffany, "What happened?"

"Well I did what I said I would, and went to the police," said Brian.

Tiffany looked towards the door, in time to see Jason come through. "Brian, go into my closet, Jason's here," whispered Tiffany. "Go Brian!"

Brian went upstairs. He stood inside Tiffany's door, just out of sight.

"Tiffany, you in here?" asked Jason looking in the living room to see her sitting with some guys. "Tiffany, who are these people?" asekd Jason curious.

"Oh, hi Jason. These are my friends. That's AJ, Nick, Howie, and Kevin," said Tiffany hoping Jason wouldn't say anything mean to them. Jason shook hands with them then pulled Tiffany aside..

"Tiffany, do you think I could talk to you, alone?" asked Jason.

"Sure, just don't do anything to hurt me," said Tiffany walking into the kitchen and sitting at the bar counter.

"That's what I wanted to talk to you about. I'm trying to change Tiffany. Just give me a second chance. I'll try not to be drunk any more, as a matter of fact, I'm not now. I haven't drunk anything since a few hours ago when I was at your house. So please, please Tiffany, give me another chance?" asked Jason.

"Jason, I.. I don't know. I mean how will I know that you'll keep your word?" asked Tiffany.

"Please Tiffany, please. I really want to go out wtih you again. So please?"asked Jason.

"Jason, pretty soon we won't see each other very much because of my new job. I'll be traveling and won't be able to see you," sadi Tiffany getting up to get a drink of the refrigerator.

"What do you mean, traveling?" asked Jason walking over to Tiffany.

"I mean, those people out there are the people I'm working with. I'm going to be they're new dancer," said Tiffany. "Do you want anything to drink?"

"No, that's OK. Now so your they're dancer?" asked Jason. "So you won't have anytime for your old boyfriend?" He watched her shake her head.

"No, unless I decide to go back out with you, and you come on tour with us," said Tiffany walking back to the bar.

"I don't know Jason. I might, I might not. I don't know. If you kept your word by not getting drunk, and not doing what I don't want to do, then maybe. If you could change that, then maybe," said Tiffany walking up to him.

"So, are you going out with one of them, so you can't go out with me?" asked Jason.

"No, I'm not going out with any of them, it's just, i don't want to get hurt again," said Tiffany. "Your nice Jason, it's just... OK, I've got an idea. We leave in a week or so, and if you don't get drunk that whole week I'm still here, then I'll considor it, OK?" asked Tiffany.

Jason thought about it and decided to do it. "OK Tiffany, that's fine with me. i'll do it."

"Bye, and don't forget," said Tiffany walking with Jason over to the door.

"I won't, bye," said Jason. Tiffany watched him leave and then went back in.
