I rubbed my eyes and got outta bed and went into the bathroom to put my contacts in.
I walked outta the trailor meeting the guys and the rest of the crew and family outside by the big, tables filled with delicious looking breakfasts. "’Morning, sweetie," Diana greeted, "Where are the boys?"
"Ohh, they’re still getting ready!"
"What about Amanda?" Walker asked.
"She’s sound asleep. Not for long though, with those boys getting ready!!"
"Haha, true!" Diana said.
"Where are the rest of the kids?" I asked.
"They’re all still asleep in the trailor!" Diana replied, "But Avie said she wanted to see Tamra as soon as she got out of her trailor, so I think I better go wake those guys up," Diana said and walked towards her trailor.
Just then the boys walked outta their trailor.
"’Morning, guys," I said with my mouth full, since I had just stuffed it with a fresh croissant.
"’Morning," They all replied at the same time.
Just then Jessie, Avie, Mackie all came running towards us, still in their PJ’s.
"Hi Tamawa," Avie said holding a Barbie doll in her right hand.
"Hey guys," I replied to the four (Zoe was in Diana’s arms).
"Okay guys, we’re gonna start filming soon!" Tamra yelled as a whole new set of fans appeared at the racks.
"Wow, guys, more fans!" I yelled, to the boys.
"Yeah," Zac said as he put his arm around me, "I think we should give them a little performance, later. HEY TAMRA, can we do a performance for these guys later?" He asked.
"Yeah, sure, we’ll have to go back to the studio to get sound equipment though. May be your dad can do that!" Tamra replied.
"DAD!!!! Can you PLEASE go back to the studio and get sound equipment? We wanna do a little performance for these dudes!"
"Yeah, sure, Zac. But I ain’t going to get the drums or anything like that, you can do it acoustic!" Walker replied.
"Yeah, okay, cool!" Zac said and went to inform his brothers and me on the whole performance tonight.
"Guys, we’re gonna start filming, COME ON!!" Tamra yelled and told the fans to quiet down a bit.
We did a lot of filming that day. We put in a quick flash of all the screaming fans with their signs, which got them screaming even harder.
By 4 o’clock we were told that we were done shooting the whole entire video which meant the next day we could do whatever we wanted. Walker told us it would be better if we went to Universal Studios the next day and started setting up a bit for the concert, which was the upcoming Saturday, so we could also go on the rides and stuff.
Just then Walker pulled up the van which was loaded with all the sound equipment and Ike’s acoustic guitar.
They started setting up while me, and Hanson went in the trailor to hang out with Amanda for a bit.
"Amanda, what would you do if we got you on stage at Universal and asked you to sing?" Zac asked.
"I would sing," Amanda replied.
"GUYS, you’re stuff is all set up!!" Walker yelled from outside the trailor.
"Oh, yay, we’ll be right back, Amanda," Ike said and planted a kiss on her cheek.
"Ike, what was that?" Tay asked Ike as they stepped out of the trailor.
"A kiss, what else did it look like?" Ike replied.
"We’ll talk after," Tay said as he picked up his tambourine and stood behind his microphone. We did a half hour long performance and went to sign autographs for the fans. By the time we were done it was already 5:30.
"Hey Amanda," I called as I walked in the trailor, "Come on we’re going out for dinner, and then we’re going back to the hotel, we gotta pack our bags!" "Oh finally, this trailor, is too small. What are we doing tomorrow?" Amanda replied.
"We’re going to the Universal Studios. We’re gonna take 2 hours to set up for the concert on Saturday, and then we’re just gonna finish the rest Saturday since the concert only is at 8, so we can also go on the rides tomorrow and stuff!"
"Oh AWESOME, I can’t wait," Amanda replied as the boys walked in.
"Guys, come on hurry, I can’t stand this trailor any longer, I need to get back to the hotel, fast, and I need something to eat COME ON!" I screamed.
I walked outta the trailor with Amanda behind me and our backpacks on our backs.
"Ike, why did you kiss Amanda?" Taylor asked as he stuffed a shirt in his backpack.
"Because I like her, dumbass!" Ike replied.
"Ike, why do you always have to go after the girls I like?"
"I never knew you liked her!!" "Oh shut up, you know perfectly well, I did!!"
"Hey guys, what’s going on in here?" Amanda said as Tay punched Ike.
"Wow, Zac, what’s going on?"
"Basically, Ike and Tay are both in love with you and now they’re fighting over you!" "GREAT!!! Okay, come on guys, get the HELL off each other. I am NOT worth it, come on we’re gonna go out for supper, let’s go!" Amanda yelled and got the two to break up.
"Now say sowwy, and shake wands," Zac said in a kiddie type voice.
Ike and Tay gave each other a hug instead of shaking "wands".
"Okaaaaay, that’s even better," Zac said, he grabbed his backpack and left the trailor.
Tay and Ike did the same thing and followed their little brother, with Amanda behind them. I was waiting outside, watching all the fans leave.
"Hey," Zac said and grabbed my hand, and kissed me smoothly.
"Wow, what was that for?" I asked as we finished.
"I don’t know. I just felt like kissing you, we haven’t kissed for two days now!" He replied and we all got into the van with the rest of the family that were waiting for us.
We headed into town and went straight back to the hotel. We figured we would just order a pizza or something back there.
We all got into the totally different rooms with Mackie running around like a chicken without a head.
Diana, Walker and Zoe decided to get the room that was next to mine, so that Jessie, Avery and Mackie could sleep with their parents, while me and Amanda shared the room next to Ike, Tay and Zac’s.
After me and Amanda got settled into our rooms, we decided to order a large pepperoni and cheese pizza.
"So how do you like this whole thing so far?" I asked my pal.
"Oh, I love it. But like, I can’t believe Ike kissed me though!" She replied.
"He what? He kissed you? Wait…..how come I didn’t know about ANY of this."
"Oh damn, after you left the trailor to do the performance Ike planted a kiss on my cheek. Then after the performance you know how we packed and then we both sorta left the trailor while Ike, Tay and Zac packed their bags? Well, I came back in and Tay and Ike were both fighting over me. I don’t know, I thought it was kinda weird."
"Well, may be they both like you," I said as someone knocked on the door, "PIZZA IS HERE!!!!!"
I got up and opened the door facing a guy that was probably about 15 years old. "Hi, a large pepperoni and cheese pizza, miss," He said.
"Yeah, right here!" I said taking the pizza out of his arms after paying for it.
"Hey, aren’t you Tamarah?"
"Uhh….yeah, that’s me, but please don’t pull my hair," I joked.
"Oh, why would I do that? I just love your video! Uhm…could you sign this?" He asked and handed me his hat and a permanent marker.
"Oh, yeah, sure! If you want Hanson’s they’re right next door!" I told him.
"Oh, ok, thanx a lot!" He said and turned the corner towards the elevator. I shut the door and sat down on the bed, opened the box up, and enjoyed the yummy food. Just then Walker walked in.
"Hey guys, uhh……Sunday, after the Universal Studios performance, we’ll be going to London. I don’t know if you wanna come as well, Amanda, or if you’d rather go home!"
"There is NO WAY I’m going home, no way. I’m going to London. IF that’s okay with you guys!" She answered.
"Oh, it’s okay with us, definitely. But just please call you parents and ask if it’s okay with them as well, there’s a phone right over there!" Walker informed us and left the room.
Amanda called her parents right away and stayed on the phone with them for ten minutes. You know the usual "Are you having fun, are the people treating you ok?". Finally she popped the question, and thank goodness, they said yes.
After she hung up, Zac barched in the room.
"Hey chicks, whuz up?"
"Nothing, I just called my parents to see if I could come to London with you guys."
"And……what’d they say?" Zac asked.
"YES!!!"
"Oh, awesome! Hey, Zac, do u know what time it is?" I asked.
"Almost 8 o’clock, why?"
"Is there a beach around anywhere I feel like taking a walk," I answered my boyfriend’s question.
"Yeah, if you look out the window you can pretty much see it!" Zac said.
"Zac, could you leave for a minute I need to talk to Amanda."
Zac left the room and I sat down on the bed across from my friend who was sitting on the other bed.
"Okay, who do you like, Ike or Tay?" I asked real quick, before Zac could come back in the room.
"I don’t know, Tay is real cute, but Ike is sooooo romantic!" She answered. "Who would you rather go for a walk on the beach with?" I asked.
"Ike!!"
"Okay, that’s settled, let’s go!" I said, grabbed my jacket and walked into the boys room, where I found Ike and Zac watching TV.
"Hey guys, what’s up?" I asked.
"Hmm……..a ceilling!" Ike replied as he looked above him.
"Hey, where’s Tay?" I said as I wandered the room looking for him.
"He took Jessica and Avery for a swim downstairs, why?" Zac replied.
"Okay, let’s go for a walk at the beach," I said as I grabbed Zac’s hand and Amanda took Ike’s and we headed out the door.
"Wait, Tamarah, what are you doing?" Ike asked.
"What? You like Amanda dontcha? Well, she likes you too, so let’s go," I said quicky and stepped into the elevator and started to kiss Zac.
"Wait a minute, you like me?" Ike asked Amanda.
"Yeah, why?" Amanda replied.
"No reason, just wondering.
We walked out of the hotel hand in hand, laughing at Zac’s funny jokes.
When we got to the beach after a 15 minute or so walk, we decided to split up and just meet back at the hotel.
"Wanna walk through the water with our bare feet?" Zac asked.
"Yeah, sure why not?" I said and took off my shoes.
"Wanna go skinny dipping?" Zac asked after a while of walking through the water.
"WHAT? No, no no."
"Why not? It’s almost dark, no one’s around……."
"Because," I started as I put both of Zac’s hands in mine, "I wanna sit down, and watch the sun go down, with your arms around me."
"Wow, sounds good to me," he replied blushing.
We walked back towards the sand and found a spot and decided to lye down with our arms around each other instead of sitting down with his arms around mine.
"It’s a beautiful night," Zac said and kissed my cheek gently.
I returned his kiss with a smooth, long, warm, French kiss.
"Y’know, you’re not a bad kisser," I told him.
"Neither are you. I can still taste the pizza in your mouth."
"We should head back, before it gets dark and we get lost."
"Yeah, good idea," Zac replied.
We got up and walked back hand in hand.
After getting mobbed once or twice we finally made it to our hotel room.
"Well, Zac Hanson," I said as we stood in front of my room, "Thank you for the lovely beach walk, but I really should be getting into my room since….." Zac shut me up by giving me a long warm goodnight kiss.
"Since we have to go to Universal Studios tomorrow morning," I finished and walked into my room, where I found Amanda in her bed watching TV in her PJ’s.
"Ohmigod, Amanda, he is soooooo sweet!" I said as I dropped the hotel key on the desk.
"Ohmigod, Tamarah, Ike is so unbelievable, we talked and walked down the beach with bare feet through the water hand in hand. He is……ahh."
"Zac and I watched the sun go down in each others arms, while lying in the sand."
"Ohmigosh! Tamarah, I think I’m in love!"
"Amanda, I think I am too! Ahhh!"
"So are you and Ike going out?" I asked.
"He asked me, and I told him yes. What about you and Zac?"
"Ahhh, congratulations!! Oh yes, me and Zac have been going out for quite a while now. But uhm…I’m gonna change into my PJ’s."
I changed into my PJ’s but when I came outta the bathroom Amanda was already asleep. I quicky tip toed into the boys’ room, where I found all three watching MTV.
"Ike, you’re going out with Amanda. Congratulations!" I said and planted a kiss on his cheek. He gave the kinda look that told me to shut up as if no one was supposed to know that they were going out. "Ike, you’re going out with Amanda?" Tay yelled.
Ike cleared his throat. "Yeah, sorta."
"I think I’ll leave now," I said and went back to my room with Zac following me. We shut the door and put our ears upto the door.
"Look, Ike, I’m sorry. If you wanna go out with with Amanda, fine, I won’t stand in your way. I’m sure I’ll meet some fine chick backstage tomorrow anyway."
"Okay, cool. But I’m gonna go to bed now, big day tomorrow," Ike replied.
"Well, that’s more like it," I whispered as I stepped into my bed.
"Mind if I spend the night in here?" Zac asked, "Don’t worry I’ll take the couch."
"Yeah, sure I don’t mind, good night sweetie!"
"Goodnight." I shut my eyes and drifted off into a deep sleep.
