"No Micki," all my friends said at the same time.
"You guys! It'll be fun!" I tried to persuade them.
"No!" They all repeated.
"Please," I whinned.
"No, Micki!" They all shouted, frustrated.
Leah, Adrienne, Megan, and Alexis all were standing around my kitchen. I just moved to Orlando from Tampa no more than a week ago. There were better job oppurtunities here. I want to be a singer.
Leah, Megan, Adrienne, and Alexis all lived back in Tampa. What I was trying to do? Persuade them to move to Orlando with me. We did have a group together. They just didn't belive we had much of a chance getting into the business.
Ever since I was like 4 years old I've dreamt of being up on stage,performing. I would stand in the living room, use the vacuum for a microphone, and sing my little heart out with Paula Abdul, Cher, Milli Vanilli, and New Kids on the Block.
It was great. So, as soon as I turned 13, I vowed to myself I'd be a star, or at least a writer, my other love.
Now that I am in Orlando,nothings going to stop me now. I had a pretty good job, I guess. I'm Jasmine at DisneyWorld. I don't look anything like her, except I have long dark hair & since I am outside a lot for work, I'm (amazingly) dark.
But I get to play dress up everyday which can be fun. I looked aournd my kitchen at my friends. Adrienne was searching through the refridgerator for something to drink. Leah was sitting at my kitchen table. Alexis and Megan were cooking something on the stove. I was sitting on the counter.
"Fine you guys. Maybe we shouldn't evenhave a group. I mean if you guys arent even going to try, then whats the point?" I asked. I wasnt trying to sound ,ean, but it was the truth.
"Micki, its not that I dont want to be in the group, its just I just started college. Even if we were tobecome singers, it doesnt mean it will get the bills paid. Look at TLC." Adrienne pointed out.
"Thats why you get a manger that wont screw you over," I mumbled.
"Good luck with that" Alexis mumbled.
"Fine, I'll do this by myself. It is in fact my dream. I shouldnt drag you guys into it." i said, looking in my lap.
Leah and Megan's heads turned to me.
"I'm in," Leah said. I looked at her and smiled.
"Me too," Megan followed, my smile got bigger.
"We'll move to Orlando," Leah gave in.
"YES!" I jumped down from the counter and did a little victory dance.
Leah and Megan rolled their eyes, but were smiling.
" I have togo to work, but you guys can help yourselves to whatever." I annouced.
I ran upstairs to my room and grabbed my jeanshorts and leopard print halter top. I changed and left for work. Tonight some boy band was performing at Disney. It was their Homecoming concert. They'd been on tour twice before, this was their 3rd.
They were the Backstreet Boys, or something like that, I've heard a few of their songs and seen a few videos. But, I didn't reallty remember what they looked like. They sounded good though.
I walked into the changing room to get changed into my outfit for my usual walk in the park with my Aladdin. As soon as walked in I stopped. There were 5 guys in there, all dressed and sitting around, the Backstreet Boys.
"Hi sorry, I just need to get my costume," I smiled.
"Oh, I'm sorry. Would you like us to leave," one said. He was about 5'7" he had reddish brownish hair, kindablonde, it was weird, and deep blue eyes. His accent proved he was from the south.
"No,no, it's okay. I just need to go change real quick," I assured.
I grabbed my outfit and walked into a differnt room. I changed and then walked back into where the boys were. I had on my Jasmine outfit on. I felt so stupid in front of them.
I sat down in frontof my mirror and started with my hair. The reflection in the mirror showed that all eyes were on me.
I turned around and smiled/
"I'm AJ," said a FINE one. He had dark hair sticking up with the tips dyed blue. He had dark sunglasses on, a white tank top w/ a yellow wifebeater and white Nikes with a big yellow Nike check across the side. He had tatoos all over his arms and many earings.
He had a goatee that made him look all the more attractive.
"Hello AJ, I'm Micki," I smiled. He took my hand and brough it to his lips. That made me blush.
"Im Kevin," said a tall one with dark hair, he had a great body, but my eyes were still on AJ.
"Hi nice to meet you," I grinned.
"I'm Brian," said the one that talked to me first.
"I'm Nick," said one that looked closest to my age. He was a cutie.
"I'm Howie," said a short dark haired one.
"Nice to meet you all," I said.
"So, you're Jasmine?" AJ asked smiling.
"Yeah," I laughed.
"I used to be a tour guide here," Kevin annouced.
"Fun," I laughed.
"Are you going to watch our show?" Howie asked.
"What time does it start?" I asked.
"7:00," Nick asnwered.
"Yeah I can go, I get off at 6:30," I replied.
"Gottaa get here early. Its first come, first serve," AJ advised,
I smiled, he was FINE.
"Ok, I'll be there," I assured.
"Great!" AJ exclaimed.
"Well, I got to go to work, see you guys later," I waved.
