“Cute.” Ruby agreed examining the tight pink pants and stripped back-less tank. “Now all we need is shoes.” She noted.
“I dunno Ruby, I feel like Brittany Spears.” Theresa laughed twirling around.
“But much prettier.” Stephanie joked walking out wearing a light blue knee-length skirt and a sparkly blue tube top.
“Thank you Steph.” Theresa said looking at her friend’s outfit. “I like.”
“Me too Stephanie. Makes you look taller and darker.” Ruby informed.
“I know, doesn’t it.” She smiled examining herself in the mirror.
“What about me?” Lisa questioned strutting out wearing an angle-cut bright purple skirt and a dark purple halter.
“Nice.” Theresa nodded.
“That does look good on you.” Ruby smiled in satisfaction.
“Woah! Theresa what’s up with that outfit?” Lisa giggled.
“Damn it! See I told you that this outfit just doesn’t work.” Theresa sighed crossing her arms.
“Fine, go and change out of it and I’ll find you something much better.” Ruby stated leaving the three girls in search of a new outfit.
-At dance practice-
“Great guys, that’s it for today. Now practice will continue when the guys get back from Las Vegas.” Fatima smiled as everyone nodded then started to gather their things and leave.
“Hey, great dancing.” A.J nodded towards Abby.
“Thanks.” She smiled picking up her gym bag up from the glossy wooden floor.
“Anytime.” A.J said checking out her butt when she bent down.
“Would you not do that?” Abby giggled winking at him when she stood back up. A.J just blushed and looked away. “A.J right?”
“Yeah.” A.J answered running a hand through his hair. “I really like your hair, its cool.”
“Thanks.” Abby smiled. “Well I’m gonna go now. Call me sometime.” Abby said grabbing a pen from her bag and writing down her number on his hand.
“Cool.” A.J smirked watching her walk away and out of the room.
“A.J!” He heard Brian yell. Turning around A.J noticed Brian’s evil glare.
“What B?” A.J asked rudely heading for his things and picking them up.
“I seen that…” Brian trailed off looking at A.J’s hand.
“So, its not like I’m going to ask her to be my girl. I already have a beautiful one, remember?” A.J rolled his eyes before taking a drink of his spring water.
“Yes I know, but remember how you got Theresa? You and Amanda split up.” Brian exclaimed.
“Oh would you stop worrying. I just want to get to know her, she looks like a pretty cool person to hang with. Anyway, I think Theresa would like her and Theresa hardly knows anyone from around here cause she’s from Kentucky.” A.J stated.
“Still…” Brian trailed off with a sigh as he left the room.
“Hey man, see ya later.” Nick waved chasing after Brian yelling something about Nitendo.
-At the same time-
“Now this looks better.” Theresa smiled turning around in front of the mirror getting the full image of herself. She was clad in pair of jeans with colorful rhinestones all over and a pink tie-dyed sleeveless shirt with laced up sides.
“Hippie chic.” Lisa laughed.
“It’s good, but I still think the outfit from before looked better.” Ruby smirked.
“Whatever.” Theresa laughed as the three girls went back into the dressing rooms and changed into their outfits that they had worn there. Coming back out the three browsed around for an outfit to wear for their press conference.
“Ok, here’s my idea for the press conference is that you three are going to where the ruff-cut jeans with the tops cut off and then your all gonna have matching tanks with eNVY written across the front.” Ruby explained as she held up the jeans that she was talking about.
“Oh how traditional. Are you talking about were all gonna have the same colored tank top?” Stephanie questioned pulling a strand of her ebony hair behind her ear.
“No, no. Theresa will be wearing the one strapped pink tank, Steph you’ll be in the blue halter tank, and Lisa in the white tank with the bottom cut in an angle.” Ruby answered.
“Cool. Sounds good to me.” Lisa nodded in agreement.
“Yeah.” Theresa agreed. “Now where are we going to be looking for the dresses?”
“Ladies, we will be getting those when we get in Las Vegas.” Ruby said heading towards the front to pair for the outfits that they had chosen.
“What? And we don’t even know what their going to be looking like?” Theresa sighed quickly.
“No need to worry Theresa. Donna and me have it all picked out. Of course no ones going to know what the dresses are going to look like ‘cept for the designer.” Ruby replied handing the cashier the company’s credit card.
“What do you mean, designer?” Stephanie asked placing her hands on her hips.
“Ladies your dress is being designed by one of my good friends, plus shall I say one of the best fashion designers…” Ruby trailed off.
“Who?” Lisa cut in following the tall red head out of the store.
“Versage. She has exquisite style shall I say.” Ruby smiled at the girls.
“Isn’t that true.” Theresa nodded. “But how is she going to know what looks good on us and what size we wear?”
“No need to worry there. She has a picture of each of you in bikinis and they have your measurement written on there.” Ruby replied as they all climbed into the awaiting limousine.
“This is so cool.” Theresa squealed as she leaned against the seat and closed her eyes.
-Later-
“Hey, sorry were not here right now. Just leave a message and we’ll holler at ya later.” Lisa’s voice sounded on the answering machine.
“Hey girls, its Kevin. I’m just calling to see if you three wanted to go to a club with me and the fella’s. Call me back later. And Stephanie, I love you.” Kevin said before hanging up.
“No one home?” Brian asked sitting on his cousin’s couch watching ‘NFL Sports Center’ catching up on the sports scores.
“Nope.” Kevin shook his head standing from his couch and heading into the to crab a bottle of water. “Leigh still working on that movie?”
“Yeah.” Brian nodded resting his feet up on the cherry oak coffee table, but they were then pushed off my Kevin.
“Hey man, don’t be doing that. That thing cost a lot.” Kevin frowned looking at his little cousin seriously before sitting next to him.
“Sorry Kev.” Brian smirked rolling his eyes. “Kevin did you notice A.J today?”
“Umm….I knew he was there. Why?” Kevin chuckled taking a drink of his water.
“Shut up Kevin. I mean did you notice the way he was acting around that new Abby chick.” Brian sighed.
“He was flirting. He always does that.” Kevin chuckled.
“No, I mean, she gave him her number and…and…”
“And what Brian?” Kevin cut in.
“He likes her. I know he does.” Brian finished.
“Oh get off it Bri. He just thinks she’s hot. She is a cute little thing, but it doesn’t mean that I’m gonna cheat on the women I love with someone I thinks hot ok.” Kevin informed looking at Brian.
“Still, I don’t care. Theresa’s a good friend to me, and I just can’t sit there and watch A.J deceive her like that.”
“Like what? Flirting? Come on. Like Theresa would care. She flirts just as much I’m sure.” Kevin laughed elbowing Brian. “Don’t worry.” Brian just sighed. Should he worry about A.J going on tour with Abby? Or was he being highly judgmental?
-At the same time-
“Donna I don’t know about this whole love affair going on with our girls.” Danny Sloan, the big guy that signed eNVY to Epic records.
“I know that Danny, but what do you expect to happen when three single girls go on tour with five charming men?” Donna shot back. Danny just sighed into the phone then stated.
“Well I was wanting all the girls to be single when we released the album…but well I guess that ain’t gonna happen. Now Donna listen, there’s not much I can do to get Theresa and A.J to split up because well they’re the talk of entertainment right now. But no one knows about Kevin and Stephanie…” He trailed off.
“Then what are you suggesting?” Donna questioned sharply.
“They can not be a couple anymore. We don’t need both girls dating a Backstreet Boy, only one is good enough.” Donny commented.
“Fine, I’ll have a talk with Kevin tomorrow and explain to him what exactly is going on, ok?” Donna gave up.
“Great. Now onto other things. The album sounds great and I just know it’s going to sell millions. Now get those beautiful girls out there and promote what we got.” Danny said before hanging up.
“Prick.” Donna muttered hanging up her phone then climbed out of her business chair. “This is so gonna be hard.” She said looking out the large window that looked over the large city of Orlando. “Hopefully Kevin will understand.”
