"She's nice," I told her. "I sweat that Nick and Brian, or maybe AJ helped Dad find her."
"Why?"
I explained the whole hair and eyes thing and Leslie laughed.
"How's the new family?"
"They're really nice."
"Hey, I saw reports on MTV about Kevin having a kid. So the people already know."
"I saw them the very first night," I told her as we walked into DEB. "Sometimes, MTV picks up things too fast. Plus we're going to be there in a week."
"That should be interesting to say the least," Leslie said.
"No kidding. Someone will probably see me with Nick or someone and think we're going out. The fans will go crazy."
"I can just see the headlines on the tabloids," Leslie laughed. "'Pop star dating best friend of little sister!' What a scandal!"
We both laughed at the thought. We had both had our share of run-ins with fans. One time, someone thought that Leslie was Nick's girlfriend. The two of them had started laughing hysterically.
So, we spent the rest of the day shopping. We hit all of our favorite stores and I spent all except for five dollars. When Dad picked us up, we were high on caffeine and giggling over some guys we had met and exchanged phone numbers with.
"Someone's in a good mood," said Dad as me and Les climbed in the backseat. "Did you get everything you wanted?"
""That and then some," Les said, laughing.
"Drew? Spill the beans."
"We met some cute guys," I told him, attempting to control my laughter.
"And we got their phone numbers," Leslie said as we both held up our hands, where numbers were written. Dad just shook his head.
When we got home, Leslie and I made a huge bowl of popcorn with extra butter and then sat down in front of the TV. Dad went down to the basement and came back up, said good night, and then went to bed.
About four o'clock, Leslie and I went up to my room and talked for another hour. Then we fell asleep.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We woke up that morning and it was almost noon. After we got dressed and ate, Dad drove us to Leslie's. A bunch of our friends were going to be there for an end of the year thing. We went swimming and partied. The next day, I left with the guys.
