Chapter 1
I stepped off the plane and looked around. So this was Orlando….
"Caryn? Is that you?" I turned to see my cousin Howie walking toward me.
"Hi! How've you been?" I asked.
"Great, everything's great. How was your flight?"
"A non event, everything was fine. Where's the rest of the Boys' Club?" He smiled.
"Coming."
The Boys' Club was my nickname for BSB. It wasn't a term of degradation, just a pet name. Then I saw them. AJ, Brian, Kevin, and Nick came jogging over. I smiled. They were like my brothers. It would be a lot of fun to have Spring Break with them.
"Hey Car," AJ said, grabbing me in a bear hug.
"Hi," I answered as he nearly knocked the breath out of me.
"She's gotten taller," Brian said. I laughed. I stood 2" taller than him now.
"You knew I would. It's been 2 years since you've seen me," I grinned.
"You look great," Kev said.
"Are you kidding? I look like crap," I laughed.
"Well, we'll take you back so you can relax," Howie said.
"Maybe play a lil bball later?" Nick said hopefully.
"Perhaps," I grinned.
They were chattering at me as Howie drove us back to his house. It had been a very long 2 years since I had sent the other four. They all had appeared to miss me. Spring break was going to rock.
We got back to Howie's house and I changed and lied down on the couch. I closed my eyes and a few minutes later felt something heavy on my legs. I cracked open an eye. AJ was sitting on my legs.
"What are you doing?" I asked.
"Oh sorry, didn't see you there," he said.
"Ruuuuught," I said. I looked up at him and saw that undeniable twinkle in his eyes.
"Oh hey, would you like to go to dinner with me?" he asked.
"With just you?"
"Yeah."
"Uuummm, can I think about it?" I asked.
"Sure," he answered.
"Can I go back to sleep now?"
"If you really want to," he laughed and got up. I went back to sleep and didn't give one more thought to AJ's offer.
I woke up a few hours later and rolled off the couch.
"Ouch," I grunted.
"Ahh, Sleeping Beauty awakens," Kevin said. He bent over and helped me up.
"Thanks," I said.
"No prob, do you wanna maybe catch a movie later or something?" he asked.
"Are you asking me out?"
"Well yeah….,"
"Oh wow," I said. Then I remembered AJ's offer. I….
