“Bree oh my god you have to hear this!” my best friend Eliese
said walking into our personal fitness class and sitting next to me.
“what?” I asked half asleep on the desk.
“guess who called me.”
“who?” I asked
“I said guess!” she squealed
“Liese!” I said sitting up and looking at her, “its 7:40 Monday
morning after spring break, im blonde and your asking me to think?”
“oh fine.” She sighed “well last Wednesday I got a phone call…”
she was inturupted by our teacher Mr.Young starting his lesson. I shrugged and
took out my notebook to take down the notes.
A few minutes later we were told to chose a partner and make
some sort of poster. Eliese brought at chair over to my desk and faced me.
“anyways back to my story…” she started, “last Wednesday I was
sitting at my house…”
~Flashback~
Eliese sat in her living room watching a re-run of happy days on
tv. It was spring break and she had nothing to do. Brianna was in Pittsburg
with her family and all her other friends were gone too. The phone rang and she
got up to answer it.
“hello?” she asked into the reciver.
“is this Eliesa Demers?” a deep male voice asked
“Its Eliese and yes it is.” She replied wondering which one of
her male friends had gotten such a deep voice over night.
“oh im sorry, Eliese.” The voice said
“its ok, um may I ask whos calling?” she asked
“yeah, this is Kevin Richardson.” The man said “and these are my
friends, say hi guys.”
“hello” came a bunch of voices in the backround.
“very funny Dana you asshole!” she yelled into the phone “don’t
you know I wasn’t born yesterday?”
“don’t you know its not polite to swear at pop stars?” ‘Kevin’
asked
“Kevin my ass, if your Kevin, I have three horns and can fly!”
she said
“I swear it me. And this right here is Brian.”
“hi” she heard a voice with a distinct southern drawl come
through the line.
“and that’s Howie”
“hello” she heard another voice.
“and thats Nick”
“hey Eliese”
“and last but not least is AJ”
“hey”
“ok…im hanging up, this isnt funny!” she said starting to put
down the phone.
“NOOOO!” she heard the people yell. She put it back up to her
ear.
“ok so if you are the backstreet boys…why are you calling me?”
she asked
“well do you remember sending your phone number into that thing?”
Kevin asked she thought for a minute.
“you mean the one out of that magazine?”
“yeah, that one. Well we chose someone to call and you were it”
“oh, cool I guess” she said
“you don’t sound excited. Arent you a fan?” one of them asked.
She guessed it was Howie, they had her on speaker phone.
“course!” she said “but im just a little shocked, and im not a
teenybopper”
“but the magazine you saw the add in was a teenybopper magazine”
“well just trust me ok” she said “so um, where are you guys”
“Bahamas” they all answered
“what for”
“working on the new album” AJ said “so anyways. You know about
us, so tell us about you”
“what do you want to know?”
“um, what are your hobbies, about your family, are you single”
he said, she heard the other guys laughing at him.
“well I like to sing, and dance. And yes I am single” she said
avoiding the subject of her family.
“yes” someone said quietly. She couldn’t tell who it was.
~end flashback~
“get out of here bitch!” I said laughing “no fuckin way did they
call you”
“Bree! Im dead serious, why would I lie to you?” Eliese asked
“well if they called you, why didn’t you call ME and tell me
instead of waiting a freekin week?” I asked
“because you were in pittsburg and didn’t get home till yesterday.
Plus it hasn’t been a week”
“what about yesterday, you coulda called me then”
“Brianna, don’t start getting pissed at me because its not my
fault if you don’t belive me. And I didn’t call you because I was at the damn
hospital again”
“you were?” I asked she nodded. “im sorry Eliese, I didn’t know”
“its ok” she said by this time class was over and we went our
separate ways.
