I was so nervous. Our group, ETERNITY*, was the opening act for *NSYNC. It was our first concert ever. We are just about to go on. All of us dressed in white cheerleader pleated skirts and a white crossover( almost like a V-neck ) in the front, elbow-length shirt with 5 inch open-toed, white sandal platforms.

" Okay 30 seconds."

::::There is nothing to be nervous about. You have sung in front of tons of people before. This is nothing. Except the biggest night of our lives. Our first ever concert for a sold out staduim. Even though most were probably there for *NSYNC. If this goes well, we'll be starting our own tour across the U.S. Along with some charity concerts. We can't screw up. We have been over rehearsing for weeks. Nothing can go wrong.::::

The guys were there to watch us from the side. Which makes me even more nervous. Justin and I have this thing going on. We have been going out for a little over 2 months. But a few hours ago we had this fight. I saw him with Amy (our costume designer and my one of my best friends ) and assumed he was cheating on me. Only because they were inches away and whispering to each other. If they hadn't of been in front of people then they might have kissed. At least, that's what it looked like to me. I confronted him about it. He got all mad because he was just talking to her and he said I had no right. Amy, Sara, Ashley, and I have all become best friends over the last year or so. She helped us design, or rather pick out, the costume's were wearing now. And all the other outfits we wore to charity benefits and opening concerts. She would be the last person I would think that would stab a best friend, like a sister, in the back. After all that we have been through.

I was nervous because I could break down crying in the middle of the song just thinking about Justin.

" Come on Jenny," Sara gave me a little push out onto the stage. I looked out at all the screaming teeny-boppers waiting for *NSYNC.

Sara, Ashley, and I took our places and waited for the music to start.

We would be singing two songs. One fast and the other a more slower song.

It was all a rush. It went by so fast. As soon as I new it we were finished and running off the stage. There was another group opening up so *NSYNC didn't have to go on for like another 10 minutes.

As I headed towards my dressing room, I saw Justin sitting with Amy. Not just sitting, she was in his lap. I wanted to go over there and push her off of him. I clenched my fists down at my side. It didn't even look like Justin noticed that I was there. I stop walking and just stared at them. ::::Why is he doing this to me? What did I do to him? I said I was sorry And Amy. We're like sisters and this is what she does.::::

Tears were ready to spill out. I turned slowly and walked in my dressing room. I slammed the door as hard as I could. I sat down in the chair and put my head in my hands and cried.

I felt humiliated. Everybody had been out there. Sara, Ashley, Lance, J.C., Chris, and Joey. They had all seen what had happened.

There was a knock at the door. " Go away please," I said. I could hear footsteps walking away. Maybe it was Justin. I got up and opened the door slowly. At my feet was a note.

Jenny,

Meet me in the alley along side of the coliseum after the show.

My first guess was that it was from Justin. Who else could it be from?? Maybe he wants to make up. I stayed in my dressing room for the whole two hours. I watched the concert from a small TV in the room.

After two hours in my dressing room I had to get out. I looked at myself in the mirror. My eyes were all red but they didn't look too bad. Opening up the door I stepped out. I could here the guys in their dressing rooms. The show had just ended and we would be heading over to the hotel soon. Hopefully Justin was already out there waiting for me. Going through all these corridors, I found the back door to the alley.

I looked behind me to make sure nobody was following me. I didn't want anybody to interuppt, like maybe Amy.

I heard footsteps but nobody was there. ::::Probably just my echo::::

I opened the door and stepped out. Looking around I couldn't see any one. The door slammed shut. I jumped. I saw someone step out of the shadows. It wasn't Justin, it was Matt. Matt worked at the coliseum. We had become friends over the past few days that we have been here.

" Did you send me this note?"

" Yeah."

" Sorry. If I would have known it was you at the door I would have opened it."

" That's alright."

There was silence for a moment.

" You wanted to talk to me?"

" Yeah. I just wanted to say that over the past few days we have been hanging out a lot. And I really like you."

" But Matt, I'm going out with Justin. You know that."

Anger crossed his eyes. " Justin doesn't like you. I saw him kissing that girl. What's her name, Amy? Anyways, just give me a chance."

" He was kissing her??." I didn't want to start crying again. Matt gets really jealous. He doesn't like Justin at all.

Now he was really mad. He grabbed me and threw me against the brick wall. Still holding onto my arms he said, " I don't want to be just friends."

" Stop Matt your hurting me." Before he did anything else, the back door swung open and someone came out. Matt turned around. I looked up and saw J.C.

" What's going on?" he asked.

" Nothing," Matt said quickly. " Jenny and I were just talking."

I looked at J.C. My eyes pleading for him not to go away and leave me alone with Matt.

" We have to get going." said J.C. He held out his hand to me.

I looked at Matt, fire burned in his eyes. I took his hand and we went inside, leaving Matt alone.

I closed my eyes and let J.C. led me to my dressing room. I didn't mean for this to happen. I didn't know Matt's motives. I thought he just wanted to be friends. My head was throbbing with pain. My back was bruised from being thrown up against a brick wall.

" Are you okay?" J.C. asked.

Everybody was in the lounge waiting to leave.

" I'll be alright. Just a little shocked." I reassured everyone.

" Your sure?" said J.C.

I nodded. " I'm going to go get dressed. I'll be ready in a minute." I got up and went slowly into my dressing room. Looking through my wardrobe, I picked out a black skirt with a black t-shirt. I put on knee-high purple platform boots and put on my purple leather knee-length coat. I looked in the mirror. My face was pale from pure shock. I stepped out of the room. Everybody was waiting for me.

We all headed out to the car. There were screaming fans waiting to catch a glimpse of *NSYNC. There were two limos waiting for us. I just got into one of them. I didn't care who I was with. I didn't want to talk to anyone right now. I just stared out the window the whole way to the hotel.
