Two days after graduating from college: “ Stretch I still don’t understand why we have to go over to England for an internship when there are plenty in America!” I said begging Stretch to retract our acceptance of an in internship across the ocean.
To tell you the truth I am terrified of flying over water, so flying to England would definitely freak me out. Not only that, but I had a family and friends that I loved. Even so I knew Stretch was right. She said, sounding like my mother, we need to expand our horizons and meet new people. What I don’t get is why she dragged me into it.
Oh well. Let me tell you about us. The inseparable duo, that was us. Stretch is 5’10’’ and is a guy magnet. She is very stylish and loves showing skin. Me, I was 5’7’’ and not such a guy magnet. I was a friend to most of the guys. I hated showing skin and was not always as stylish. I was also considered a freak. I had purple streaks in my blond hair and peircings in my ears, belly button, eyebrow, nose, and tongue. Stretch and I were exact opposites, but we didn’t care.
“ Baby-j don’t make me sound like your mother again!” Stretch said warning me as she loaded our bags into the car so we could go to the airport.
I had been planning this last plea for the last couple days, but now I was at a loss for words. I guess I will just have to go.
“ Fine Stetch just let me have the window seat?” I said looking at Stretch with my puppy eyes.
“FINE! Just don’t throw up or anything because you look out the window.”
Stretch said as she closed the trunk of the car.
“ Stretch? Why did you shut the trunk now I can’t see anything.”
Stretch and I were taking red eye flight so it was pitch black outside and the only light was coming out of the car. We both got into the car and drove to the airport. We were silent the whole ride except when we sang to the different songs on the different cds.
“We are here!” Stretch said waking me up. “ And next time you drive so I can sleep.”
The airport was totally deserted so we parked close to the airport and checked in. We had a whole hour to kill and nothing to do. We decided to buy some cards and play poker.
“Jokers are wild!” I yelled over the sound of a plane landing.
“Now boarding. Red Eye Flight to England!” The flight attendant announced over the P.A. system.
“Darn! I had a good hand too.” I said as Stretch and I packed up everything to get onto the plane.
We got onto the plane and it looked as if we were the only people except for 3 people sitting all over the first class area as we trekked back to the coach area. I had expected this so I brought my guitar on board. I played it whenever I had mixed feelings and sometimes Stretch would sing along and we would accidentally make songs. We sat down on rows across from each other and put on our headphones and pulled out our palm pilots so we could email each other and have our music on. The attendant came back and informed us about the safety features and left us alone. 3 hours into the 22-hour flight Stertch decided to corn row my hair. When she was about half way through on of the guys from up front walked by and saw my hair. He stopped to look at it and Stretch looked up at him.
“ Yes?”
“ Oh I was actually wondering if you could do my hair.”
This guy was so hot and he had an adorable accent.
“ Oh forgive me for being rude my name is Christian.”
“ Ow Stretch!” I said.
Stretch was now focusing on Christian instead of my hair and was pulling it.
“Oh I’m sorry. Well Christian I can do your hair after I am done with hers, which will be in like ten minutes.” Stertch said now concentrating on my hair so I wouldn’t scream again and make Christian scared.
Stretch finished and I went to the bathroom to admire my hair. It was really good and when I came back Christian asked me if it hurt at all and to turn my head so he could see the whole style. I loved getting that attention, but it soon came to an end when Stertch asked him to sit in front of her so she could get started. I watched for about 5 minutes and then turned to my palm pilot.
“ Oh my gosh!” I leapt up and yelled.
“ Ooww!” Christian yelled.
When I screamed Stretch pulled Christian’s hair by accident.
“ Sorry. What?” Stretch said impatiently and a bit red from being embarrassed.
“ While we are going to be in England Creed is coming to town.” I said now red because I realized it wasn’t that big of a deal.
“ Sorry. I just realized we’ll be at work.” I sat back down as two guys ran to the back where we were sitting.
“ What is going on back here?” One of the guys said in an English accent.
“ Oh settle down you worry wart!” Christian laughed and realized we were confused.
“ Oh right. This is Mark and the guy behind him is Ste. They are good friends of mine.” Ste and Mark nodded their heads and sat down. They both looked at Christian and laughed.
“ What?”
“ It’s just that you are turning into the faggot Justin Timberlake!” Mark said breaking out laughing.
My face turned bright red because I had cornrows to so I turned away and put on my earphones. I couldn’t hear anything. But I could see mouths moving. I could not hear this:
“ Man I think you offended her.” Ste said in a perfect English accent looking at me as I was looking out the window. Stretch now could not wait to get to England and here all the guys surrounding her with those accents.
“ Ha! Man Mark you are not a winner with gurls. I mean as soon as you come back here you piss one off.” Christian said laughing and soon stopped when Stretch pulled on his hair.
“ You guys know she might be able to hear you right?” Stretch said with no expression or sympathy for their embarrassment if I heard them.
“ OOPS!” Mark said kind of embarrassed.
“ So where are you two from?” Mark asked Stretch.
“ Well were from ************. It is unknown to people who don’t live in the state of **********.” Stretch said while putting a rubber band on the end of Christian’s 3rd cornrow.
“ Um…Are we supposed to be going straight towards water?” I said looking out the window at the water that rose ever closer.
“ It’s not coming at us. It’s just that the airport is right by the coastline.” Ste said trying to reassure me.
“ She has a fear of planes flying over water.” Stretch explained as she finished the 6th and final cornrow on Christian’s head. He looked adorable with cornrows. I shook my head at Stretch telling my business, but I figured so what it’s not like I will ever see these guys again. BAM! I flew out of my seat and landed on Ste, then Mark landed on me. I can’t say I didn’t like the sandwich, but I couldn’t breath. I threw Mark off of me and helped Ste up. Instead of being able to get back up Christian pushes me back into Ste and jumps on the pile. It turned out into full out brawl into the flight attendant came back and told us to collect our belongings and to get ready to exit the plane. As the flight attendant left everyone broke out laughing and the guys went back to first class to collect their things.
“ I wonder if we will ever see them again?” Stertch said assuming that the guys would just get off the plane and walk away. I dropped everything once so it took us a long time to get off the plane. Stretch was first to get off the plane and I thought she was going to faint.
“ I thought you were never getting off!” Mark said taking Stretch’s luggage from her. I smiled because Stretch was in love again. See before we left America Stretch’s boyfriend cheated on her and they were really close so I thought she would never let any one in again. But once again Stretch amazed me at how fast she healed. Stretch moved, but her jacket was caught on my suitcase so I went tumbling down the stairs, but Stretch didn’t fall because she worked her coat free. I hit my head and I felt really dizzy.
“ Stretch when are we reaching Australia?” I said when I tried to sit up.
“ Um… she might have a concussion. Lets get you guys checked out and then we can take her to my place because my father is a doctor.” Christian said as he picked me up and carried me to our rented car.
He set me in the backseat and retrieved our luggage. He set them in the back with the help of Ste and Mark.
“ Just follow me and I’ll let my dad check her out. Mark why don’t you stay with them just incase they get lost.”
“ Fine with me.” Mark said.
“ Why don’t you just bend her over and get it over with?” I said half conscience and not caring what I was saying.
Stretch turned as red as a black person possibly can and Mark just turned around and talked to the guys. We all piled into the car and drove off.
“ So how long are you staying in England?” Mark questioned Stretch. I sat up and opened my mouth.
“ Don’t you dare repeat that gurl!” I laid back down and fell asleep. I woke up to Stretch pulling my hair, I didn’t scream because I was now used to this since we were roomies.
“ I think she’s up…,” Mark said uncertainly.
“ Daaaaaaaaaaad!” Christian yelled as a man with gray hair ran out of what looked like a mansion.
“ Yes son?” His dad said with an accent just like his.
“ Dad I think she might have a concussion.” Christian said and even though I was half conscious I could still se the concern on his and Ste’s face.
“ Oh she’s fine.” Stretch said, “ She is always like this after she is on a plane.”
“ Maybe, but her pupils are dialated so I should check her out.” Christian’s father said as I was carried inside.
“ Well is she going to be okay?” Stretch said. I could hear the increased worry in her voice, because of the way I just hung as the guys carried me inside.
“ Wait! What are you doing?” Some slut said as she ran into the room. Ste ran over to her and frenched her. I cringed at the sight. He goes with a slut! Eeew! Since I was knocked out I saw double of them kissing and that was just wrong.
“ You two get a room!” Mark said as Ste and the girl broke apart.
I was set onto the couch and checked over.
“ Well she apparently has a concussion and will be fine if she rests.”
Christian’s father said as he packed up his equipment. I looked over to see Mark and Stretch talking and Ste and his girl necking.
“ Thanks Doc!” I said chipperly and sat up. Right as I sat up I fell backwards.
“ I said rest!” Christian’s dad said as he walked away.
“ What ever. Thank you though!” I said standing and getting the keys to the car.
I threw them to Stretch and walked out the front door.
“ Where are you going?” Stretch said trying to catch up to me. “ I want to go to our new apartment so I can get settled and find out what our phone number is.” I said grinning at Stretch trying to push the thumping out of my head.
“ Why?” “ Because I know you already have one guy that wants it.”
Right after I said that Mark walks up to us and tells us that they have to leave. Mark hands Stretch a note and takes off. I was hoping someone would come over and do the same to me, but no.
“ Oh my gosh!” Stretch screamed after we were in the car.
“ Will you quiet down I kind of have a headache.” I said leaning the seat back in the car.
“ Sorry it is just that Mark wants me to go clubbing tonight.” She said excitedly. I knew that I would be spending my first night in England alone.
“ You should definitely go Stretch!” I said trying to sound as chipper as possible.
“ Thanks Baby-j!” Stretch said as she backed the car up and got onto the highway. We arrived at out apartment at 9:00 p.m., which was only an hour before Stretch was supposed to meet Mark at the club. While I was admiring the apartment Stretch was tearing apart her suitcase looking for a clubbing outfit. I picked a room and started to unpack.
“ Baby-j does this look good?” Stretch said as she strolled into my room with a mini skirt, halter top and strappy sandals.
“ Yeah but try an anklet with it.” Even though I was kind of on the freak fashion I still knew what was in and out.
“ Oh that would just top it off. Thanks!” Stretch said smiling and walking off to find an anklet. I had just finished unpacking when the doorbell rung. I answered it and three figures shadowed the doorway.
“ Um… Hi.” I said and as the figures walked into the light it was all of the guys from the plane.
“ ‘ello is Stretch home?” Mark said looking over my shoulder.
“ Yeah, I’ll go get her.” I said as I walked away.
“ You guys can come in if you want.” I said over my shoulder. I walkd into Stretch’s room and she was putting on the last of her make-up.
“ They are here Stretch.”
“ They?” Stretch asked disappointed that it wasn’t just her and Mark.
“ All of them came.” I said as I walked back into the living room when I all of a sudden got dizzy and had to steady myself. I could hear someone running over to me and I could feel someone holding me up, but it was all background noise. I shook my head and my vision unblurred.
“Are you okay?” Ste said from his position of holding me up. I shrugged his comforting hand off and nodded. I walked to the couch and sat down. Some one plopped down next to me and handed me the movies Hannibal and Valentine. I looked over to see Christian and he smiled.
“ I thought you might want some company tonight.” Christian said as he got out the videos to put in the VCR.
“ Thanks. I guess I could use some company on my first night in England.” I said as Stretch came out of her room.
“ Bye Baby-j have fun.” She said smiling mischievously.
“ Bye Stretch and don’t stay out too late that you bring some stranger home.” I said hoping to embarrass her. She winked at me and they all left with a wave.
“ Okay so which one do you want to watch first?” Christian said when I realized he was up making popcorn that he had brought.
“ Just a second because there is one thing missing.” I said as I got some soda out of the fridge.
“ Now you know what you are talking about.” I handed him a can of coke and we walked out to the living room.
“ You have a sweet flat.”
“ A what?” I said.
“ A flat it is an English word for apartment. I think that is what Americans call it.” He said looking like he was racking his brain with his brow furrowed.
“ Thanks. I guess. Why don’t we watch Hannibal? If I watch Valentine I would have to do a background check on all of my boyfriends.” I said cringing at the thought.
“ Well that wouldn’t be good now would it.” He said. I smiled wondering what that meant. Did it mean he wanted to be one or did he just say it?
“ Okay press play. No not the pause the play!” I reached to get the remote and Christian ran.
“ Come back here! Please!” I followed Christian outside and some gurl yelled Bbmak. Christian looked down and ran back into the apartment because he had on pants and a wifebeater. I looked down at the gurl and asked her who Bbmak was and she told me not to play dumb because that guy I was with was Christian Burns from the group Bbmak. I ran back to the door and threw it open. Christian was buttoning up his shirt and looked up as I came in.
“ Why didn’t you tell me?” Christian looked up at me and collapsed into the couch.
“ It’s just that it has been so long since I have been able to find anyone who doesn’t know who I am and who I am into.” Christian said and his smile before had no appearance on his face.
Mean while…
“ Why is the paparazzi here?” Stretch said looking around at the flashbulbs flashing.
“ Um… I don’t know.” Mark said feeling kind of guilty about not telling her that she would be in the next paper as “ Mark from Bbmak’s new girlfriend.” Stretch saw a reporter push past the crowd and grab Mark’s arm.
“ Mark from Bbmak where are the rest of your group? And who is this young lady you are with?” She said taking her notepad out.
“Um… No comment!” Mark said an attempt to cover Stretch’s face. They walked into the club and Stretch turned to Mark.
“ I know Stretch what you are about to ask me. I am famous. I was hoping I would be able to live a fairy tale of a gurl not knowing who I am, but now you do. I am from Bbmak and I sing lead.”
“ Okay. Now lets dance.” Stretch said acting like nothing happened.
“ No we should really go because they will get pictures of us dancing together.” Mark said peering out the door. Next thing you know they were rolling up at our apartment with Christian and I yelling at each other. I looked at the door and then at Christian. I turned around and walked to my room. I could here them talking outside, but I just starting crying like never before. I heard them leave and then Stretch walked in. She took one look and me and handed me the tissues.
“ Why are you crying?” Stretch said watching me.
“ Why didn’t he tell me earlier?” I said looking at Stretch.
“ What earlier?”
“ That he was in some band that was famous.”
“ Oh I just found out too. It’s no big deal though I mean if they like us that much that they want to keep us from the public eye, it’s almost sweet.”
“ That might have been what Mark told you but Christian’s reason was totally selfish. I mean he was like ‘ I have not been able to find a girl who I like that does not know who I am’ I mean come on come up with a better reason.”
“ Well why don’t you go clubbing tomorrow and you might find someone.” Stretch said looking through my clothes.
“ No Stretch I would rather not. I was interested in Christian and I need to heel before I go out and find someone else.” I said with a tear dripping down my face.
“ Baby-j if you liked him so much why didn’t you tell him?” Stretch said and her answer was me putting my head under my pillow. I heard her close the door behind her and asked myself the questions she asked me. I had no reason to blow up at him. Ring-Ring!
“ Hello?” I said into the reciever.
“ Until your back here baby!” Someone sang into the other end of the phone.
“ Um… who is this?”
“ It’s Christian and please don’t hang up on me. Just here me out. Look I am sorry for not telling you, but you were so refreshing that I didn’t want to let you know.”
Tears welled in my eyes and I spoke int othe receiver.
“ I guess I can accept your apologie even though I am the one that should be apologizing for being such a dick.” I said half crying and laughing.
“ Hey don’t cry I will be over there in a sec.”
“ Hey bring Mark for Stretch.”
“ Will do! Love you!”
