CHAPTER 4
Hilary(all sitting in the living room): K’ guys what’s the game plan?
JC : Well, we run back to Orlando, drop some stuff off with Lou, and start on the road to Jacksonville.
Hilary(getting up): Cool beans.(starting to leave the room)
Justin: Where you going?
Hilary: Well, since you guys are going to Orlando, then to Jacksonville, I figure you have to come back this way to get to Jacksonville, and that I could go and say “bye” to my friends at school. My school is next to the highway so you could pick me up from there.
Joey(amazed): WOW.
Hilary: What?
Joey: You planned that all out in a matter of seconds.
Hilary: Yeah so?
Chris: What Joey means is; he’s afraid that you’re smarter than him.
Hilary(thinking for a second): He’s just now realizing that?
Lance(jumping in): OK. What grudge do you have on us?
Hilary: I don’t have a grudge. I just think that since you guys pop out of nowhere and say I’m going on tour with you, that I’m allowed to at least be a little bitter. Besides, one thing you have to know about me is I’m like almost always sarcastic. And if you don’t mind, I have to take Sarah to her bus stop and catch my own bus.(grabbing her backpack) COME ON SARAH!
Sarah(yelling back): OK! I’M COMING!
Hilary(talking quickly): Later guys. By the way, call Kristin and tell her what’s goin on. And I go to Buchholz High School. Bye. (leaves)
Lance(staring at the door): Uh?
Justin: What are you “Uhing” about?
JC(giggling): He got told off by a girl in High school.
Lance: I didn’t even get a chance to reply.
Chris: Trust me. She’d catch you’re throw and use it against you. I have a feeling she always gets the last word.
Justin(smiling)(thinking in his head): That’s my girl.
~ Later that day at Buchholz ~
*At our school if you don’t dress-out for PE you have to stand in a circle at the bottom field. I know it’s stupid. *
Hilary(getting in her circle, looking up): Oh man. They’re here.
Danielle: Who’s here?
Hilary(covering her mistake): Uh no one.
Danielle(looking up): OHMYGOD! It’s *N Sync!
Hilary(panicking): No it’s not.
Danielle: Yes it is. Look.
Hilary(under her breath): Shoot.
All the guys(shouting): HILARY!
Hilary: WHAT?!
Justin: Come on it’s time to go.
Danielle: You know them?
Hilary(ticked off): Yeah. (cries)WHY!? They weren’t supposed to be here yet.
Danielle: Are you kidding me? You’re going with them? And you’re not excited? Are you crazy?
Hilary(sarcastically): Oh It’s an absolute dream come true! Bye.(leaving) I’M COMING!
Justin: THANK YOU!
~ Later on the road to Jacksonville ~
Kristin(singing & dancing): This- is- so- cool.
Hilary(sitting in the lounge area): So, how did your dad take it?
Kristin: He yelled for a few minutes then I came back in the room with my stuff and told him bye.
Hilary(picks up the newspaper and starts reading it): That seems normal. At least for him.
Kristin: So, what about Steph? Is she coming at all?
Hilary: I’ll see if she can come later on.
Kristin: Ok. Well I’m gonna go talk to the other guys. Later.
Hilary: Later.
