***In The Front Of The Bus***
'10 miles...10 miles and Kelly will be on the bus! I can't even stand her! How am I going to get along with her for 2 more hours??? Oh well I have to be nice or Nina will get mad.' Nikki thought as she looked out the window. Nobody had said much since Nina had said Kelly was going to be coming on the bus.
***9 1/2 miles later***
"Ok we're almost at the rest stop. This will be the last stop before we get to Atlanta. Normally we will not do this. But by request we will." One of the bus drivers announced. Nina smiled. She knew Brian was the one who had requested the stop. She walked to the back of the bus again and over to Brian. Without saying anything she bent down and kissed him.
He smiled and said, "What was that for? I thought you were mad at me." Keeping a smile on his face as Nina sat on his lap.
"That was for being so sweet. And I could never be mad at you so don't worry!" she answered with a smile. She turned and looked out the window. "We're here! I want to get some fresh air." She said standing up. "Will you come with me?" she said grabbing his hand.
"Sure, I could use some fresh air anyways." he answered and stood up. Everyone else had already gotten off the bus. Jesse had gone right over to Kelly and invited her to come on the bus with them. Then she invited Marcea. And Nick had met up with Nikki and they were walking around holding hands. Andrea and A.J. were standing near the bus making out. Kevin and Natalie were just walking around talking and so were Howie and Jessica. Brian and Nina walked over to a small flower patch. Brian bent down and picked a small poppy for Nina and handed it to her. She smiled and kissed his cheek.
***Later On The Bus Again***
Everyone was in the T.v. room in the back of the bus. Nikki was leaning against Nick's chest. Nina was sitting on Brian's lap in one of the chairs. Natalie and Kevin were sitting next to each other talking as always. Andrea was sitting on A.J.'s lap in one of the other chairs and she had fallen asleep. Howie and Jessica were sitting on the couch talking. And Jesse and Kelly were sitting on the loveseat. Jesse was getting very flirty with Kelly. Marcea was sitting on the ground in front of the loveseat talk to Kelly and Jesse. Nina looked around. Then snuggled up next to Brian. He wrapped his arms around her and pulled her in closer. They both smiled.
***Later In Atlanta***
"Andrea wake up...Andi, Hun time to wake up. We're here" A.J. whispered into her ear. Andrea woke up and the first thing she saw was A.J.'s face. She smiled. That was something she could get used to waking up to. "Have a nice nap Andi?" he asked then leaned down and kissed her cheek.
"Mmm…yeah I was tired." She said standing up and stretching. A.J. stood and wrapped his arms around her waist.
He bent his head down so he could whisper in her ear again and he said, "I Love you Andi." Then kissed her cheek again.
***Inside The Hotel***
"Ok, How are we going to divide these rooms up?" Brian said hoping people already knew who they wanted to stay with.
"Me and Nina will share half of a joining suite." Nikki said not wanting to get stuck with Kelly.
"Ok, Me and Nick will take the other half." Brian said quickly to make sure he got to be as close to Nina as possible. "How about you and Howie share, Kevin? Or it could be A.J. and Howie Or Kevin and A.J. It doesn't matter to me!" Brian said confusing himself.
"I'll share with Howie." Kevin answered responsibly. "That leaves Natalie, Jessica, A.J., Andrea, Kelly, Marcea and Jesse. So let's have Natalie, Jessica And Marcea in the other half of the suite that me and Howie are sharing And Jesse and A.J. can share half of one suite and Andrea and Kelly can take the other half."
Everyone agreed. Except Andrea wasn't there to disagree about having to share a room with Kelly. Or she would have. Suddenly as everyone was walking toward the elevator A.J. and Andrea walked in. They caught up with everyone else.
"Hey A.J., here is your keys and Andrea here are yours." Kevin said handing them each a set of keys. They all got into the elevators and went up to the 15th floor and got off to go to their rooms. Andrea looked at the number on her key and walked down to find it when she did she saw Kelly standing in front of it looking at the number. Andrea walked over to her and pushed in front of her while saying "Excuse me, I need to get into my room." She opened the door and walked in. Kelly followed.
"Excuse me, but this is my room too so don't get your lil bitch attitude with me before I have to kick your ass." Kelly snorted.
***A.J. And Jesse Room***
A.J. is in the bathroom getting changed. Jesse was on the phone. "Hello?" a voice said on the other line.
"Hey Kelly, This is Jesse." He said happy that she had picked up the phone.
"Oh Hey Jesse! What are you doing?" Kelly asked.
.
"Oh I was hoping I could take you out to dinner on a date. Ya know something like that." He said hoping she might go out with him.
"You asking me?" she said trying to sound like she wasn't sure if she wanted to go or not.
"Yeah, I mean that is if you are going to say yes. If you aren't then I didn't ask." He said trying to joke with her.
"Well if you asked then I'd say Yes." She said smugly. Her plan was working perfectly. By next week she'd have gotten Jesse to dump her and then run to Nick for support. It would make Jesse look like a total jerk…and make her look like a sweet little helpless angel. She grinned gleefully.
***Later That Night***
"So Jesse What you doing tonight?" A.J. Asked wondering if it had anything to do with Andrea…If it did then he'd go too but if it didn't then he'd have to find out what she wanted to do instead.
"I am going out to dinner with Kelly." Jesse said then added "you could bring Andrea and make it a double date."
"Sure, I'll go if Andrea does." A.J. agreed. *Good* he thought *Now I don't have to think of something to do tonight.* "I'll go ask her." He said standing up and walking over to the door joining their room to Andrea's. Andrea opened the door. "Hey Andi, I was wondering if you might want to go to dinner with me tonight?"
"Sure!" she answered. She liked spending time with A.J.
"Ok, cool I'll see ya around 6." He said and walked back into his room.
***Nick And Brian's Room***
"Hey Frick you wanna get together with the girls and do something tonight? Tomorrow is a show so tonight is the only night we can do anything. Then we can look forward to another bus ride."
"Sure, maybe the girls know what they want to do though." Brian said. "It'd be easier then trying to think of something ourselves."
"Ok." Nick agreed and walked over to the door joining their room to Nikki and Nina's and knocked.
Nikki opened the door and greeted him. "Hey Nick! What are you doing tonight?"
"Umm…Me and Bri were hoping that we could do something with you girls tonight."
"How about we all go clubbing?" Nikki suggested not really caring what they did just as long as it meant spending time with Nick.
"Sure, sounds fun." He answered with a smile.
"Ok, By the way would you like to come in?" she said noticing that she hadn't invited him in yet.
"No I gotta go tell Bri, but I'll be right back. K?"
"K," she said standing on her toes to kiss his cheek. "I'll see ya in a little while then."
***At a Restaurant In Atlanta***
Andrea was little mad that A.J. hadn't mentioned that Kelly and Jesse were coming. She didn't like Kelly at all. She already had to share a room with her. She didn't want to have to share the time she had with A.J. with her too. And she hated to see her brother with a bitch like Kelly. He'd already been hurt by a couple different girls…he didn't need to be hurt again. Plus there was always Marcea that he could be with.
"Andi? You ok?" A.J. asked Andrea who seemed a little upset but he wasn't sure why.
"Yes I am just fine and dandy Alex." She replied not meaning it all. She would have preferred it being just her and A.J.
***Later That Night In Kelly's Room***
"So what do you want to do now Kel?" Jesse asked hoping they could do something else together that night.
"How bout you stay here and we just watch some T.v." Kelly said grabbing his shirt to pull him closer to her. "Will you stay with me Jesse?" she asked seductively.
He smiled and said "Sure. I'd love you…umm I meant to."
"Sure, I am sure that is what you meant" she grinned then leaned over and kissed Jesse. He smiled. He really liked Kelly. They walked to the back of the room were the T.v. was. Jesse sat down then Kelly turned on the T.v. and put I Still Know What You Did Last Summer in. Then walked to the bed and sat on Jesse's lap facing him instead of the T.V. She leaned forward and started making out with him.
***In A.J.'s Room***
A.J. and Andrea were in the back of the room were the beds were. Andrea was still a little mad at A.J. for not telling her about Kelly going to dinner with them.
"Andi for the millionth time I am sorry! I didn't know you didn't like Kelly! How was I suppose to know?" A.J. said half apologizing and half proving that he was right. He was a little mad himself. She shouldn't be mad at him. It wasn't his fault, He didn't even know she didn't get along with the girl. He was trying to be nice by taking her out to dinner! Maybe he should just stop trying so hard to make things work with them! Maybe she didn't really care about the relationship.
