Chapter 4

Madison and Tricia got into the club in no time and found a table up on the second floor. "So, which guys do you think will come?," Tricia asked.

Madison shrugged, "Don't know. AJ, duh, umm..probably Howie. Nick won't come cause he just got a new game and has to call his girlfriend later. Kev may come, depends on what his girlfriend, Jamie, wants to do. I don't think Brian will come because he's gotta call LeighAnne and plus, Bri isn't too much on the clubbing scene. So, AJ, Howie, and I'm gonna say Kevin."

Tricia nodded, "Cool..well, I'm off to dance, you comin'?"

Madison shook her head, "Not just yet, I think I may go get a drink or something, I'll see you later."

"Cool, see ya!"

Madison shook her head ruefully as her friend took off to do some dancing. "Madison!," She heard a very familar voice, AJ of course, exclaim.

She turned around to see AJ, Howie, Nick, and Kevin walking over. "Hey guys, Nick, you came??"

The blonde grinned, "Yep, couldn't stay away."

She laughed, "Cool, well pull up chairs or whatever, I was gonna go get something to drink."

"I'll come with you.," Kevin said.

"Okay, AJ, dear, I'm putting my coat on this chair so this is my seat, don't give it to some bouncy blonde who's trying to get in your pants!"

"Okay, okay..geez, so it happened ONE time Madison, its not like I asked her to come take your seat."

"I'm jokin' AJ..we'll be back..come on Kev!"

He followed her down to the first level and over to the bar. She ordered and then he did. She leaned back against the bar and looked around. The club was definately packed. "How come you didn't tell anyone you two were going to go clubbing?," Kevin asked leaning closer so she could hear him.

She shrugged, "I dunno..it was a last minute thing. I figured you guys were too tired from the concert."

"Nah, us, tired? Whatever.."

She laughed, "I know you, old man, you're probably 'bout ready to drop."

"Old man! You're only one year younger."

"You're calling me old, well thanks Kev!"

"No, I wasn't callin' you old in the least, I was just uhh..well..yeah.."

She laughed at his expression, "I was joking."

Kevin handed her her drink, took his, and they walked back up to the table where only Nick was left. "Where'd D and AJ go?," Madison asked.

"They went off to dance."

"Why didn't you go?"

He shrugged, "You know I don't like to come clubbing all that much."

"True...well, come on Nicky, me and you are gonna dance. Kev, you mind?"

He shook his head, "Not at all."

"Cool.," She said grabbing Nick's hand, "Come on Nicky."

He followed her to where a crowd of people were dancing. Madison had to give Nick credit, he wasn't the most GORGEOUS dancer in the world, but he could get his groove on. (author's note: *lol* shake your groove thang, shake your groove thang! *rofl*..sorry..)


Madison sighed and looked at her watch. It read 3:23 a.m. She fought off a yawn and looked around for Tricia, or Kevin, or Howie, or Nick, or AJ. She looked over the railing at the crowded dance floor. She was worn out and ready to go back to the hotel and sleep. She turned back around to see Howie and Kevin helping AJ over to the table. Tricia and Nick were behind them. "What happened to him??," Madison asked.

"He's drunk, what else is new?," Howie said.

"Oh man..Michael is going to KILL me."

"Not if he doesn't catch us.," Nick said grinning.

"Well..we'd better go..come on.."

They loaded up into two cabs and went to the hotel. They got AJ in the elevator undetected. Kevin was holding him up against the wall. The doors opened and Tricia and Nick looked around each corner to make sure Michael or someone who would snitch wasn't around. "Its clear.," Tricia said.

Madison went through AJ's pockets for his room key. "Hey..you tryin' to feel me up?," He asked slurring his words a little.

"Yea AJ, you know how much I want you.," Madison said sarcastically.

"Really?"

"Keep believin' it J.," She said finally finding the key.

Tricia, Nick, and Howie kept a look out for anyone still. Madison opened the door and pushed it open. "Hey guys..," AJ said rolling his head back.

"Yea AJ?"

"I..think..I'm gonna blow..," He said.

"Oh shit AJ..not here! Not on me!," Kevin said almost panicing.

Madison helped Kevin get AJ into the bathroom..right before he threw up.

"Thanks guys..Trish, you goin' on to the room?"

She nodded, "Yeah..can I have your key?"

Madison fished it out of her jacket pocket and handed it to her. "I'll be there in a few."

She closed AJ's door and went to the bathroom. AJ groaned, "Am I dead yet?"

"Not yet J..Kev, go pull the covers down on the bed, I'll get him cleaned up."

Kevin nodded, "Gladly."

"Think you're done AJ?"

He nodded slowly, "Yeah..I just had way too much to drink."

"I know..I'm gonna strip ya..in a sense."

"So, you DO want me?," He said with a sleepy grin.

Madison laughed, "No J..not really."

"What did you ever see in Dave?"

She unbuttoned his shirt and pulled it off, leaving him in a black wifebeater, "I really have no clue AJ..he..wasn't always so mean or whatever. He wasn't always so negative when he first came on as your all's manager. Then something snapped in him and he became possessive and demanding.."

"I think we all knew that..we couldn't breath without him knowing."

"I know..stand up."

He did so slowly and she pulled his pants off, leaving him in boxers. "For once J..I wish I could meet a guy who'd treat me right and everything cheesy like that. I want..waht Michael and Kathy have. Sure, he travels and stuff but she deals with it and they have such a good relationship."

"Uh huh..you'll meet him Madi..I would't worry.."

"I know..come on, let's get you to bed."

She helped him into the main part of the room where Kevin was waiting. The sheets were pulled down and AJ crawled under the covers. Madison got a glass of water and a tylenol and gave them to him. "Now, I think we all agree we will NOT tell Michael about AJ's little adventure. J, if you got a hangover tomorrow, say you're sick. Kevin, you're backing us up, right?"

Kevin nodded, "Yep."

"Okay, I'm sure D, Nick, and Trish know that too. Michael doesn't need to know about this as far as I'm concerned. AJ didn't drink and drive or get hit by a car. He's just a little drunk. Think you'll be okay AJ?"

"Yeah.."

"Okay..we're gonna go..call me if you need anything."

"I will..," He said rolling over, "Thanks guys."

"No prob."

"Yeah AJ..no problem."

They left AJ's room to go to their own rooms. Madison knocked on the door and waited for Tricia to open up. Kevin got his key out and unlocked the door, "See ya in the morning Madi."

"Night Kev."

Tricia opened the door and Madison walked in. "AJ okay?"

"Yeah, he should be. He threw most of it up and I gave him some water before we left. I told him to call if he needed anything. You know, we're not gonna tell Michael about this.."

"I know, I figured, I wouldn't of said anything anyways."

She nodded, "Okay..I'm gonna go get ready..Night Trish."

"Night Madi."

After Madison changed clothes, washed her face, and all that, she walked into the room where Tricia was already asleep in her bed. Madison climbed into the other one and turned off the light. Right before she fell asleep, she was sure she could hear Jamie yelling at Kevin across the hall.

'Trouble in paradise I guess.,' She thought before falling asleep.
