CHAPTER 2
*Where did they say that meeting was?*
Kaitlyn scanned her mind once more and finally remembered it was in Conference Room 4B. Her lunch break was about to end in 10 minutes so she hoped that the interviews would not take to long.
She finally arrived in the room and saw only about three or four people waiting. Luckily, she had already signed up for an appointment earlier, so she wouldn't have to wait much longer. A lady at a small desk to her right called to her when she walked in. She had dirty brown hair with dark brown eyes that added to her gentle, yet friendly smile. Her black button down suit looked very exquisite next to her own yellow sunflower dress, which brought out her own blue eyes and dishelved, light, curly, red hair.
*Well, I should compliment myself on at least changing from my regular work uniform*
"Can I help you", the lady asked.
"Yes, I signed up earlier for the job with Nsync."
"Of course, you must be Miss. Davis", she said with an even more comforting smile or reassurance.
"Please call me Kaitlyn, Miss...uumm..."
*What's her name again?*
"Mrs. Fresno, but you can call me Diane. Well, Mr. Pearlman will be with you in a minute. Just take a seat behind the curtin. It's kind of a make shift office for him."
*Awfully nice lady*
Kaitlyn walked up the to the mini stage and behind the curtain. There sat one chair on one end and one on the other sideof an old mahogany desk. Oddly, there was five other seats to her left.
*Probably for the five guys in the group*
As she sat down, she immediatly jumped up as she heard a boisterous laugh coming close. The same large man from earlier walked in along with two younger guys.
"Hello there, you must be Kaitlyn. Diane told me you were waiting. Hope not for too long." He said taking a seat. Along with the other two. One of the two looked like the guy who had told his friend to hurry up earlier.
*What was his name again? Oh yah, Lance.*
Kaitlyn shook her head no and also had a seat.
"I'm Louis Pearlman. But you can call me Lou. These are two of the five in Nsync. This is Lance and JC." "Nice to meet you Kaitlyn", JC answered. "I remember you from earlier, nice to meet you again" Lance answered.
Lou looked confused as to what Lance meant by remembering her.
"How'd you two know each other." Lou asked. "Oh, when I went looking for Justin he was on his way up in the elevator with her." Lance quickly answered. "Oh I see. So have you met Justin?" "Only if you count running into him and sharing an elevator."
Lou began to laugh a very contagious laugh. She herself began to giggle at his laughter.
"I like your sense of humor. But anyways, I hope we're not taking too much of your time. It seems that our little trio of jokers are late once again. JC, where did those boys run off to?" Lou asked looking at him. "Joey and Chris were at the arcade last time I saw them and Justin was with Dee eating lunch." He answered without pausing. "That's the rest of the...."
Lou suddenly got cut off as a tall dark haired guy with a goatee walked in along with a shorter dark haired man. The two of them stopped laughing once they saw Lou's annoyed look. Kaitlyn just had to giggle. But within a few seconds, the same Justin they were talking about came busting into the area. Right behind him came a heavy large man who had a badge on his shirt pocket saying: SECURITY.
"Would you three sit down already. I'm sorry Kaitlyn, I dunno what possessed me into allowing these five to be here during the interviews." He said eyeing the group.
*Cute, but wild group of guys*
The interview went off without a hitch. Lou liked Kaitlyn very much. Even though he rather perferred a male for the job. But her humorous prescence kept the guys laughing with her and impressing Lou. Most likely, she would become their little guide and group encourager until the day of the concert.

(August 2, 1998)sunday
7:33PM
Kaitlyn was tired from taking in a double shift the day before at the park. She normally went in at 9AM and left by 7PM, but the second shift had called in with a family emergency and she was forced into staying until 2AM that day. She had gotten home around four and woke up at eight to help Cheyanne pack and get ready to move on the fifth. She had finally gotten home by noon and went straight to bed. She was extremely thankful that Michael(the head manager, she's an assistant manager) let her have the day off.
Around eight thiry she got a phone call from Lou.
"Hi Kaitlyn, it's me Lou, me and the guys are pretty sure with our desicion for you to have the job." He excitedly said.
Kaitlyn was excited herself and didn't think twice before saying yes.
"Good, I'd like to see you in my office at Transcon tommorrow bright and early at nine. Is that good?"
Kaitlyn of course agreed and took down directions to the studio. Later that night she couldn't believe they had decided so quickly on her. What was she really going to do anyway? She lay in her bed that night asleep peacefully and happily for once in a long time.
