Darla, Ashlee and Kimberly sat in a hotel room after one of the best concerts ever. They had just come from seeing Aaron Carter. Ashlee and Kimberly thought the concert was so cute and that his voice was adorable, but Darla on the other hand wishes she had brought earplugs.
Darla changed into her PJs as Ashlee and Kimberly reminisced about the concert and dreamt of what it would be like dating Aaron. They decided it would be fun to go to the pool, but Darla was being stubborn and didn’t want go.
“ I’ve already changed into my PJs, and I‘m tied.”
“Whatever,” said Ashlee. “ Darla can be such a pain sometimes.”
“She's just tired you know how she gets,” said Kimberly.
“Come on Kim”
“I’m coming. Should I were my hair up or down?”
“It doesn't matter. We're just going down stairs to the pool.”
"Yeah I know but up or down... up or down?”
“Ok Kim, I’m going to leave you here and go by myself if you don’t hurry!”
“Ok, ok I'm coming. I’m coming.”
“Bout time!”
“Hey Ash. Wouldn't it be like so cool if Aaron was staying here!”
“Oh my gosh, that would be so funny. I wonder if he has a concert tomorrow?”“Probably.”
“Oh my gosh, Kim, look in the pool!”
“Eeeee! That is Aaron and... Oh my gosh, I'm going to faint, Nick!”“We have to talk to him!”
“Oh, look how cute they are, and look at Nick's hair! It’s so cute!”
“Kim, snap out of it. Quit drooling!”
“Oh, sorry. What were you saying?”
“We have to get them to notice us!”
“Hey what's your names?"
"I'm Ashlee, and this is Kimberly.”
“H-h-hey,” stutters Nick. “I'm Nick. Do you not know who I'm am?”
Kimberly and Ashlee look at each other.
“Um no, no we don't," they both say almost at the same time. “Should we?”
“Um no, no you shouldn't,” Nick quickly replies back. “How old are you two girls?”
“Well I'm 18,” said Ashlee.
Kimberly gives Ashlee a strange look.
“Um, I'm 17.”
“What 'bout you?” asks Ashlee.
“Um well, I'm 20.”
“And I'm 13,” Aaron puts in.
Ashlee and Kimberly giggle.
They sat and talked for a while and had a great time.
“Hey what time is it?” asked Ashlee.
“Um its...Oh my gosh its like 12:30!”
“Oh my gosh! We told Darla we wouldn't be gone long!”
Kimberly and Ashlee ran out of the pool as fast as they could, not even getting to say bye to Nick or Aaron.
“Hey Darla, we're so sorry we didn't come back sooner. You will never guess who was in the pool!” Kimberly says very excited.
“Um Britney Spears?” Darla says in her sarcastic voice.
“Oh yeah, she was there. No NICK AND AARON CARTER!” Ashlee replies back with enthusiasm.
“What, and you didn’t come and get me?! How could you not come get me?!”
“I’m sorry! We were kind of in Awe over them,” says Kimberly, afraid she's going to get hit.
“WHATEVER!” Darla says in anger.
“I wonder if they liked us?” says Ashlee.
“Well, I saw the way Nick was looking at you. I think so.”
“I don't. I wish, but I don't think so."
“Whatever. I really hope we meet them again.”
Darla interrupting, “Wait, you talked to them?”
“Yeah!” squeaked Kim.
“Ok, that's it! I really think Nick's a pedophile!”
"Well, that's the problem. Nick thinks I'm 18, and Kim is 17.”
“Ok, he really is stupid. You don't look that old... Ha, ha Carter falling for some 14 year olds.”
“SHUT UP DARLA!” Kim and Ashlee yell as they catapult pillows at her.
“What, what it’s true!”
“Yeah, we know, but at least we have a chance now.”
“Man, I'm so upset we have to leave tomorrow,” Ashlee says trying to get Darla to lay off Nick.
“Yeah I know. I don't want to leave either, but I'm tired so go to bed,” says Darla trying to end all the subjects.
“Ok , ok I’m going, I’m going!” Ashlee said getting afraid of Darla.
“Ok, are you sure you guys have everything?” asked Kim.
“Yeah, I'm sure,” Darla says grumpily because she had just woken up.
“Ok, lets go check out,” Kim says.
“Who's Ashlee?” says the guy at the counter.
“That would be me.”
“Oh gosh, what have you done now?” says Darla.
“There's a package for you. Hold on.”
“Um, ok. I wonder what it is. I'll wait to get to the car to open it.”
“Ok, ok. Open it! Open it!”
“I am, I am! Hold on!”
“Oh my gosh! How sweet. Kim, look a teddy bear, a yellow rose, and the Black and Blue C.D.”
“Oh how sweet! Who’s it from?” Kimberly says with a little bit of jealousy in her voice.
“I don’t know yet, but here’s a note I'll read it to you.”
"Dear Ashley...Oh my gosh who ever it was spelled my name wrong, anyway... Dear Ashley, I had to write you. Ever since we talked at the pool, I couldn't get you off my mind. I wanted to see you again, but I had to leave so early this morning I decided this letter would be the best I could do. I know you don’t know why I have to travel so much, but maybe one day you will. Love Nick, P.S. Play number 4 on the C.D. It’s what I feel about you. P.P.S. Call me sometime. My cell phone number is 893-5772, and if it’s busy E-mail me at KidnickyN64@yahoo.com.
“ Wow, your so lucky. I knew I was right about Nick liking you,” Kim says still stund that Nick Carter actually wrote the letter.
“When we get back home, I’m definitely calling him.”
“You guys can spend the night at my house, and Ash you can call him from their,” says Kimberly excited about getting to talk to Nick.
“Wow, were finally back!” says Kimberly. “Let's call Nick!”
“Ok, hand me the phone,” Ashlee says quickly. “Oh my gosh, it's ringing!”
“Yo, this is Nick.”
Kimberly squeaks thinking it’s the cutest thing in the world. Which it was to Ashlee too.
“Hey Nick, this is Ashlee.”
“Oh hey baby,” Nick says trying to act cool.
“What’s up?”
“Um, nothing much. Just hanging with my friends...Brian stop hitting me!”
“He, he...Well I know you travel a lot so are you coming around Florida anytime soon?”
“Oh my god, yeah I am...Damn it A.J. stop poking me! Sorry what was I saying...Oh yeah. I’m coming to Florida in about a week.”
"Kewl. Where are you going in Florida, because I live in Tampa.”
“Really? I live just a lil bit away from there. I live in Ruskin.”
“Really? That’s kewl. We will have to go hang out sometime. I mean if you want to.”
“Heck, yeah I’d love to hang out with you.”
In the background “Hey Nick, what about Mandy? Remember you’re dating her?”
“Shut up A.J!”
“So anyway, where do you wanna go?” asked Nick in his cute lil voice.
“Um...how about Disney World, Nick?”
“Um, sure that sounds really fun.”
“Ok, well pick me up at 8. I don’t wanna go, but I have to talk to you later, Nick.”
“Love you, Ashlee.”
“Love you too ,Nick. Wait Nick! Before you go I have a stupid question for you.”
“Yeah, well shoot, what do you need to know?”
“Um...Do you have a girlfriend?”
“Um...Of course not.”
“Ok, good-bye.”
“Bye.”
“Oh my gosh! Nick Carter said he loved me!”
“You are too lucky, Ashlee!” says Kimberly a lil upset that she didn’t get to talk to Nick.
“What am I going to where to Disney World?"
“I’ll help you pick it out!” Kimberly says with excitement.
“Wow, Kim, I can’t believe I’m going to Disney World with Nick! I can’t wait!”
“Is he picking you up?”
“Yeah, he should be here any second.”
Beep, Beep.
“Oh, here he is now. Well I got to go...Oh wait a minute! I'll tell you what he’s wearing first.”
“Ok, good,” Kimberly giggles.
“Oh my gosh, Kim, his hair is back in a backwards black baseball cap. He’s wearing baggy jeans and a really cute blue shirt that really brings out his eyes, and he’s driving his prowler...Gosh I want that car...and he brought me a rose!”
“Oh, he sounds so cute!”
“Oh he is!” Ashlee giggles.
Ashlee and Nick had a great time at Disney World. They went to Tomorrow Land and rode almost all the rides. Nick tried to hide the fact that he was famous, but everyone was asking him for his autograph. He decided that he couldn’t hide it anymore.
"Ashlee, I have something to tell you.”
“Yeah Nick.”
“I didn't wanna tell you because I thought you would look at me differently and not like me as much or just like me because of it.”
“Because of what Nick?” Ashlee said already knowing what he was going to say.
“Um...Well...I'm a member of a band called the Backstreet Boys, and that's why I travel with my “friends”. Well actually there the other part of my group, A.J. Brian, Kevin, and Howie.”
“Um...Nick I didn't wanna tell you this because I wanted to get to know you and see if I liked you, which I do. I know your a member of the Backstreet Boys. I'm a really big fan of your music. I don't know if you believe me but, I really love you for you. Not because your Nick Carter, but because your my Nicky.”
“Really?”
“Yeah, Nick your my Nicky, and I love you. I’d never lie to you, Nick. You’re the reason, not Backstreet Boys.”
“Gosh, I understand you so well, and you understand me. I'll always love you.”
Nick reached over , put his arm around Ashlee, and gently kissed her on the cheek. They left the park at about 7:30 giving them just enough time to drive to Nick's favorite place the ocean.
When thjey got there, they sat on the sand, watched the sun set, and shared some of the best kisses Ashlee had ever had. Then they went back to Nick's house and had fun making cookies and playing Nintendo. Ashlee beat Nick in every game, but you could tell it was because Nick wanted her to.
At about 12:30 Nick dropped Ashlee back at her house.
"Wow, this night was so amazing no one will ever believe what happened. I can't wait to call Kimberly," thought Ashlee tucking herself in bed.
She woke up at 6:30 the next morning and went over to Kimberly’s house.
"Kim, you would never believe how much fun I had with Nick!"
“Um...Ashlee, have you seen the newspaper?”
“No...why?”
“Nick...um...is going to be a father.”
“No that can't be true!”
“Yeah, read this.”
“Oh my god! It's Satan's child!”
“Ashlee, I know your mad, but don’t call Mandy that right now.”
“I’m calling Nick right now!"
“Yo, this is Nick.”
“Nickolas Gene Carter!”
“Oh, I guess you read the newspaper this morning.”
“You told me you were single!”
“Um...well...”
“Now what are we going to do? I love you Nick!” Ashlee started to cry.
“Don’t cry. I’m sorry.”
“No Nick, you lied to me. You really hurt me.”
“Bye!” Ashlee slams down the phone.
“It will be ok,” Kim says trying to reassure her.
“Whatever, I hope he dies!”
“No you don’t! Think about what your saying!”
“He lied to me about that. Who knows about what else he lied about?!”
“Brian, what am I going to do about Ashlee? I love her so much.”
“Nick, you really screwed up this time. I can't believe you!”
“Brian, just please help me.”
“Your going to have to stay with Willa. Just hope the baby’s not yours. We're not positive she’s even pregnant yet.”
“Yeah, but still...I don’t love her.”
“Nick, baby."
“What Mandy?”
“Your in a bad mood today.”
“Gee I wonder why?”
“I think we should name the baby Mandy Jr.”
“How do you know its a girl?”
“I don’t, but that would be such a cute name.”
“What if it's a boy.”
"Then we can name it Willa.”
“Willa is not a boy's name Mandy.”
“Sure it is.”
“Mandy are you sure your even pregnant?”
“Yeah, Nick. I’m pretty sure I am.”
“Well, I’m taking you to get the test.”
“Um...Ok Nick. Wouldn’t you love me anyway if I want pregnant?”
“Um...Well...Not really. Mandy your nice and all...” under Nicks breath “...sometimes...but I’m in love with someone else.”
“Nick how could you do this to me?”
“I'm sorry Mandy, but I'm really not doing anything to you but telling you the truth. Your attitude toward me brought it on yourself....Come on, I'm taking you to get a pregnancy test.”
“Ok Nick, for you.”
“Nick, wait outside for me ok?”
“Ok, I didn’t wanna go in with you anyway.”
“I'll be back in like an hour, k?”
“Ok, whatever.”
Mandy walks into the doctor’s office and sits down on the table.
“Hi Mandy, do you remember me? Dr. Smith? I got you and Nick together.”
“Oh yeah, I remember.”
“Well, how are you and Nick doing?”
“Um...Not very good if it wasn’t for the baby. We wouldn’t be together.”
“Well, I have your results back.”
“I'm pregnant, aren’t I?”
“No Mandy, I'm sorry but your not.”
“What? I have to be Nick will dump me if I’m not.”
“What made you think you were pregnant anyway?”
“Well...me and Nick were having sex and I purposely put a whole in the condom.”
“Mandy you shouldn't do things like that. I think you have a medical problem?”
“What am I going to tell nick?”
“You should tell him the truth.”
“Ok, I will.”
“Hi, Nick.”
“So are you?”
"Um...Yeah Nick, I am. The doctor confirmed it.”
“Are you sure?”
“Yeah. Let's go out and celebrate.”
“Um no. I'm not in the mood. You can go.”
“No, that's ok.”
“I'll drop you off at the house.”
“Aren't you going home?”
“No I just wanna be alone for a while.”
“Hey Ashlee. Let's go to a movie or something. Take your mind off Nick.”
“No I don’t wanna go anywhere. All I want is a gallon of chocolate chip ice cream and a Nsync C.D.”
“No! I'm not letting you do that!”
"What eat ice cream and get fat?"
“No, that sounded like a good idea. I'm not letting you listen to Nsync! You hate them!”
“Yeah, but I can’t listen to Backstreet.”
“I’d rather you listen to Gorilla than Nsync.”
“Ok, I won’t listen to anything.”
“Ok, that’s better.”
“Ok, let's go get some ice cream.”
“Ok.”
“Ok, were here. Back at the house. Get out Mandy.”
“Oh, that was really nice.”
“Well, I wanna go some where so get out!”
“Don’t I even get a kiss?”
“Don’t push it. Get out!”
“Ok, bye.”
Nick speeds off not even saying bye.
While Nick drove he got more and more tense and depressed thinking about his life.
"Man I really F’d things up this time. God what am I going to do? I cant be with Willa. I hate her. I can't stand being with her, but it wouldn’t be fair to leave a baby with her. I wish I didn’t lie to Ashlee. I would do anything for her," he thought. "That’s it. If can’t have her than I don't want anyone!"
Just then Nick drove his car off a bridge. It hit the water beneath him and he started to sink. As the water filled the car Nick sat there and started to become unconscious. The water got so high that the car filled to the roof. Nick started to think about Ashlee and how it would be better to be in a world with her than dead without her. He tried hard to kick out a window but it didn't work he started to struggle to stay conscience. He looked in the back seat to find anything that could help him out. There in the back just out of his reach was an umbrella. Nick struggled hard to get it but was still just out of reach. Nick tried one last time with all his strength to grab the umbrella. Mercilessly he grabbed it hitting the window as hard as he could. It cracked opened and Nick tried as hard as he could to get out of his car. He made it all the way to the bank where he fainted.
"Oh my God! Is Nick ok?” screamed Willa running down the hall.
“Stop running miss,” screamed a nurse chasing after her.
“I have to see Nick! I have to see Nick!”
“Nick is doing fine. He woke up, but the only person he requested to see was a girl named Ashlee.”
“That’s me.”
“Ok miss, I'll take you back to talk to him.”
“Hi, Nick.”
“Oh my gosh, Willa, what the hell are you doing here?”
“Nick, I love you. I had to see if you were ok.”
“I’m fine. I’m fine.”
“Nick I'm really sorry. I have something to tell you.”
“Yeah, what?”
“Nick, I’m not really pregnant. The test came back negative, but I loved you so much that I had to lie so you would stay with me.”
“What? I almost killed myself, and your not even pregnant.”
“But you came back for me, Nicky.”
“Don't call me Nicky, and no, I didn't come back for you. I came back for Ashlee. I don't love you. I don't even like you. Get out!"
“Fine ,fine. At least I have my record deal.”
Ashlee walks in the room.
“Nick."
“Ashlee.”
“Hey, how are you?”
“I’m ok, I guess.”
“Why did you do this to me? Why did you try to kill yourself? You almost scared me to death?”
“I’m sorry. I just love you so much.”
“I love you too, Nick. I'm sorry, but I have to tell you that I lied to you.”
“About what? Your age?”
“How did you know?”
“Kim told me a lil while back.”
“And your not mad?”
“No, of course not. I love you, and I understand that I wouldn't consider you if you weren’t eighteen. You wanted me to see you for you.”
“God Nick, I love you so much.”
Ashlee jumps onto the bed and gives Nick a big hug.
“Nicky?”
“Yeah baby?”
“I have a question.”
“Anything for my baby. What is it?”
“Um, Nick. Why did you come back after you drove off that bridge?”
“Because I love you Ashlee.YOU’RE THE REASON.”
