The week went by pretty fast for Alex, and when Friday came around Christy was more than excited. She waltzed into school practically glowing.
She ran over to Alex and grabbed her arm, "Just think, in a few hours we will be in the same building with Kevin Richardson!!"
Alex looked at her for a minute, "Which one is that?"
Christy sighed and pulled open her locker. "That is Kevin. Isn't he a hunk?"
Alex looked at the poster Christy was pointing to, "Yeah, he's cute I guess."
"YOU GUESS?!? He's the most gorgeous man on earth and you say 'I guess'!!" Alex just looked at Christy with a blank look. "You know Alex, I don't know what has gotten into you lately!!! You're not into anything, not even gorgeous guys!!", Christy said throwing her hands up in the air. "It's okay if I come home with you right?", Christy asked completely changing the subject and pulling her History book out of her locker.
"yeah that's fine." Alex answered.
She really had no idea what he was getting herself into. She liked the Backstreet Boys, and it was neat that they would be able to meet them, but she didn't want Christy acting like a lunatic. Alex just sighed and went to 1st hour, if she were lucky this day would go by very fast.
Later that afternoon Christy met Alex at her car, she was carrying a huge duffel bag.
"What in the world do you have in that thing?" Alex asked eyeing the bag.
"Make-up, cloths, hairspray, you know the works. You have to help me look gorgeous so Kevin will just fall for me."
Alex tried not to laugh at her friend and told her to put the bag in the back and get in. They stopped to get gas and then headed to Alex's suburban home.
When they arrived no one else was home yet. Christy made herself at home in Alex’s room and started pulling all kinds of stuff out of her bag.
"Now, what outfit should I wear?" Christy asked laying several outfits out for Alex to see.
"What's with all the skirts?", Alex asked.
"Alexis, it is common knowledge that Kevin likes a girl who can be classy, therefore, tonight I am the goddess of classy!!"
"Oh." was all Alex said in reply.
She sat down in a chair and started flipping thru a magazine.
"What are you gonna wear?" Christy asked.
"Um, what's wrong with what I have on?" Alex asked. ?
"You're wearing jeans and a T-shirt!!"
"Yeah, so?"
"Alex, you have to look nice, who knows maybe you can catch A.J. or Nick's attention."
"I don't think I want their attention. DO you have any idea what their girlfriends must go thru? Having millions of fans hate them, no privacy, public knowledge of your relationship? That has to be awful."
"Alex, you are so negative!! Please do ME a favor and wear something nice."
Alex just grumbled, and Christy smiled knowing she had won the argument. Once Christy decided on what she wanted to wear, she went thru Alex's closet and found an outfit for Alex.
"How's this? It's you, with a touch of classy."
Alex looked up from the article she had been reading to find Christy holding a pair of her nicer jeans and a black top with little purple butterflies on it.
"That's okay I guess. What shoes am I gonna where with it?"
"Umm, how about your Docs?"
"Yeah that's fine."
"Okay, now we have to do our make-up."
"no no no, wait a minute. You can put all the gup on that you want, but leave me out of it."
"Now Alex, just a little."
"No!"
"Come on just a little mascara and some lip gloss."
Alex growled, "Okay fine!! But just a little!!"
Christy laughed and began pulling more stuff out of her bag. Alex just wondered if they would ever be ready in time to leave. She finally got out of the chair and put on the outfit Christy had picked out for her. She let Christy put some stuff on her face and fix her hair.
"There, you look great!! Now, get out so I can finish."
Alex laughed, "I’m getting kicked out of my own bathroom."
Christy pushed her out and then started on her hair and make-up. Alex sat back down in the chair and started reading her magazine again. In about 20 minutes later Christy came out.
"TAAADAA!!"
Alex looked up, Christy had her blond hair pilled up on top of her head and her make-up made her green eyes stand out, she did look pretty Alex thought.
"You ready?" Christy asked
"Sure, you have the tickets and passes?", Alex asked.
"Yes, now let's move it."......
