I couldn’t sleep the whole night! My head was hurting and my heart was pounding. Did Danny want me back? I certainly missed him. I couldn’t wait until the morning.

When I woke up that morning I checked my messages. I had one new one. I wondered who it was.

“Rachel! I hope you enjoyed the concert last night, we’re having a video shoot next week and I was wondering if you’d like to come? WAKE UP!” Nick screamed and hung up.

I laughed and called Nick back first. He must’ve been asleep so I left a message telling him that I would be there. Then, my hands trembling, I called Danny

“Hello?” A girl’s voice said.

“Hi…can I talk to Danny?”

“Uh…who’s this?”

“Rachel,” I answered

“Hold up Rachel!” She said and called Danny. I wondered who that person was

“Sup?” Danny answered the phone. I grew weak

“Hi Danny…it’s me, Rachel,”

“Rachel! Hey! Wassup?”

“I’m…ok…what about you?”

“I’m cool too. You got my message right?”

“Yeah…what’s up?” I asked

“I left my jacket at your house that night we uh…” he paused “The night we broke up…I’m coming over to pick it up later ok? Just leave it at the front door,” He said

My heart shattered and my eyes glazed over with tears. THAT’S why he called?

“Ok…sure,” I said coolly

“Great!” he said. I could here a girl in the background whining for him

“Bye,”

“Later,” He hung up.

“Jerk,” I muttered into the phone. LATER? Bastard! I hated Danny!!

The phone rang again

“Hello?” I growled

“Rachel…why aren’t you perky in the morning?” Nick’s voice rang in my ear

“Shut up Nick…why’d you call?”

“Damn…calm down! I wanted to ask you if you wanted me to pick you up for the video shoot?”

“Oh! Sorry about that Nick. Sure…that’d be great, what video is it by the way?”

“It’s for charity…it’s a song called ‘I’ll Be There For You’ “

“Sounds good…I’ll see you then,”

“Bye Rach,” Nick hung up feeling unsatisfied. He still liked Rachel a lot and she still treated him like a friend. For once, Nick Carter of the Backstreet Boys couldn’t get a girl.
