When I got inside I ran up the stairs to my bedroom with tears streaming from my face. I threw myself on the bed, missing Nick more and more with each sob. All I could think about was how his blonde hair got matted to his head as the snow fell on it causing it to get wet, and how his lovely blue eyes just shone so brightly. And mos importantly that He called me his "Angel". I havnt heard him say that in so long. After awhile , I soon fell alseep thinking nothing but about Nicks beutiful face.
I woke up to the sound of the phone ringing. "Hello?" I mumbled into the receiver.
"HIIIIIIIIIIII!" My best friend Misty yelled, I swear, as loudly as she could.
"Hey girl" I replied as I stiffled a yawn. "Whats up?"
"Did you know that the Backstreet Boys are playing here?!" She asked me.
"Yeah..Didnt I tell you?"
"NO! How can you not tell me that Haird was gonna be here. Oh MY GOD..I cant believe this!" She screeched "I dont have tickets!"
I laughed, giggling at her pet name for Howie. "You need tickets? Didnt the radio stations down there in Houston announce they were coming?" I asked
"Are you kidding the stations here are all up N*sync's butt. We have to beg them to play BSB. I swaer I think they, N*sync payed them off our somthin' when they came to town last month."
"No..they wouldnt do that..would they?"
"Well hell, I dont know!"
"Girl your so goofy!"I said lauhing at her. Just like Misty. I heard my line beep and asked her to hold on so I could check to see who it was. She said ok, and I clicked over.
"Hello?"
"Hey baby whats shakin'!" Aj said in his deep sexy Barry White voice impression.
"Aj! Oh my god it was just talking abot you!" I said happily. Wow my two best friends on both lines, both in Houston.
"Me? Woman, why you talking about me?" He asked.
"No, no no, not you in paticular, you guys..the bsb..I was talking to Misty!" I told him. Hey hold on right qwick ok.
"Yeah..make it fast darlin'" Aj said sweetly. I clicked back over to hear Misty humming to mandy Morres "So Real".
"Hey Mist..It Aj, saty on the line okay!
"Oh my god now way! AJ MCLEAN!!! AHHHH!!! okay, I'll wait!" She screamed into the phone..weird child.
"Hey Aj you still there?" I said clicking over again.
"Yesums'" He replied.
"Okay, why you callin' me again from Houston?" I asked him.
"Oh yeah, you said you were talking to Misty right?"
"Yeah so.."
"Well does she got tickets? You know to the concerts here? Cause I remeber she lives down here right?"
"No and Yes. No she dont have tickets and yes she lives down there. Why?" I wondered. What was he upto.
"Well, if I could arrage for her seats and all the goodies, would you fly down here to go with her to the concert? If I get you a ticket?" Aj asked..adding the "me come with her" qwickly.
"Huh??! Are you nuts? Aj...Yeah, Ill go, wait let me ask her ok." I said happily.
"Okay" He said, something changig in his voice. I clicked over yet again..this time Misty was humming Jessica Simpsons "I wanna love you forever".
"Girl..guess what." I said trying to sound sad.
"What? Whats wrong?" Misty said worried. I loved doing that to her.
"Well, Im coming to Houston tonight. And WE are both going to the BSB concert there on Friday and Saturday night. Now this only gives us one day of shopping and running around. Do you agree yes or no?" I said as quickly as I could.
DEAD SILENCE
"Hello?" I said wondering if she hung up or we got disconnected.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!" She started screaming at the top of her lungs. "Yes!!!! YEs I agree!!!"
Laughing "Okay then hang up and Ill call you when I get to Houston International okay!"
"Yeah!! Yeah okay!! Oh My god Christin!!! She said "Bye!!!"
"See ya soon! Bye!" I said clicking over to talk to Aj again.
"Boner? Ya there still?" I asked not hearing anything.
"Hello?" Aj said clicking over on his phone to see if I was there.
"Im here." I said letting him know.
"K, I thought I hung up on ya. So what did she say?" he asked.
"She is so excited..I dont think I have an ear drum left."
"Coolio. You understand that even if she had said no, you were coming anyways right?" He said evily.
"Oh I was was I?" I replied to his comment sarcastically.
"Yep, while you were on the other line I was calling and booking your flight for tonight, AND a limo will be there to pick you up in about an hour. So there. NAA!" He told me. Im pretty sure he was sticking his tongue out at me too.
"And what if I didnt want to go?"
"You have no choice now!" He answered me.
"Okay, well, what time will I be getting there? Cause I have to call Misty to get me when I arrive." I asked.
"The limo driver will hand you and envelope with everything in it. Directions on what to do etc. etc.. so when you get to O'hare, all you have to do is check in your luggage curbside, and go to the plane. As for calling Misty, It'll be like 10:30p. You okay with that?" He rattled off.
"Well, i guess I gotta be huh!" I said laughing. Okay, let me pack and Ill be seeing you guys Friday."
"Okay" Aj replied, me hearing the evilness in his voice again. That tone was beginning to scare me.
We hung up and I just layed there staring at the ceiling laughing. Oh my god, I can not believe that I was gonna be in Houston in less than 6 hours and see my best friend. I go up, grabbed my suitcase from inside the closet, dumping my shoes that i stored in it onto the floor. I threw it on my bed, then turning back to my closet I just stare at the cloths. What the hell am I going to where? I pulled my favorite black pants and red vst out, along with my wind breakers, and some tops. I ran to my dressed grabbing twopairs of jeans, and my under garments. Cramming them all into my suit case, I ran into my bathroom. I grabbed my makeup holder and shoved my whole medicine cabneit into it. Taking my toothbrush and toothpaste, and this time not forgeting my brush, threw them into the suitcase to.
Buy the time I was done, I had fifteen minutes left before the limos would get here. Throwing on my favorite Nike jackets I dragged my heavy suitcase down the stairs. I walked in to the kitchen to see my mom had left me a note while I was sleeping. Be back in later. Aj called, I know your probably leaving for texas tonight. Sorry if I ruined the surprise if he hasnt asked you yet. See you when come back Sunday, if you go. If not, there chicken nuggets in the fridge. Love ya!
Mom and Leah
Ps. Nice Angels
"hell no, so he had this planned all along!" I said out loud.Laughing I grabbed a pen and wrote on the note to my mom that I was going and that I loved her and Leah too. I heard the limo honk outside, so grabbing my suit case, and shutting the lights off, I locked the front door. The limo driver saw me stuggling with the blasted thing and ran over grabbing it and throwing it into the trunk.
While waiting for him to open the door, I glanced over at the front yard and smiled at the two snow angel on the ground. The driver opened the door, and I got in. Handed me an envelope, inside of it was like Aj had said, my palne ticket, and instructions for the plane terminals.
I looked at the ticket "Wow first class" I said out loud.
"Excuse me miss, did you need something?" the driver asked looking at me in the rearview mirror.
"Oh no, sorry! Just talking to myself" I replied giggling.
"Very well" He answered. Continuing on to the airport.
