“Yes I do, you’d rather spend Christmas with some guy than with your family.”
“Whatever! Mom, A.J’s mamaw is in the hospital and he wants me to there with him.” Theresa hissed heading into the kitchen after finding nothing to watch on TV. “You know you’d do the same if it was daddy.”
“Fine whatever!” Robin sighed. “But I better get a phone call from you on the 25th.”
“I’ll call you mom, I promise.” Theresa smiled into the phone as she doodled on the paper on the kitchen table. “Tell daddy, and Andy I love them and that I miss them.”
“I will baby, bye.”
“Bye mom.” With that Theresa hung up and sighed, God how she missed her family, she hardly ever seen them with her busy schedule. “Hey Lease.”
“Hey…” Lisa trailed off as she walk into the kitchen only wearing her Hawaiian print bikini. “What are you up to?”
“Not much, just got off the phone with my mom I told her I wasn’t coming in for Christmas.” Theresa frowned.
“Ooo…how’d she take it?” Lisa asked sitting across from her while taking a drink of her bottled water.
“Not very good at first but then she said ok as long as I call her.” Theresa smirked. “God…I miss my family so much.”
“Pssh…I don’t.” Lisa laughed.
“What are you doing for Christmas?”
“Going to Kyle’s families.”
“Woah, y’all must be pretty serious.” Theresa giggled.
“Sort of.” Lisa nodded leaning back in the chair and crossing her arms. “Well I guess I should go and finish sun bathing huh?”
“Yeah…I need to go back to the tanning bed, my tans disappearing.” Theresa said as Lisa heading back outside to the balcony of their apartment and began to finish her tanning.
-January 7 10:30 a.m. (New York City)-
“Don’t say things you don’t mean!” The girls finished singing as they stood in their own little poses.
“eNVY…” Regis smiled as him and his new co-host walked towards them.
“And this is their debut album…go pick it up in stores.” The petite blond smiled flashing a million-dollar smile at the camera.
“Well talk to eNVY when we come back.” With that the camera men said cut and everyone slowly walked towards the interview area.
“Oh my gosh I was so nervous.” Stephanie laughed sitting down in one of the interview chairs as the three girls slightly fixed their outfits. Stephanie was clad in a black above knee length skirt, with a glittery black halter. Her feet were covered by a pair of sparkly black strappy heels and her hair was straight and her make up done natural. Lisa had on a pair of black slacks that were cut in an angle at the waist, and a black sleeveless shirt that was also cut in an angle at the bottom of it to match the pants and it had ‘eNVY’ written across the chest in silver glitter. Her feet were adorn by a pair of black platforms, her hair was laying across her shoulders in wild curl and her make-up done natural. Theresa was wearing a pair of tight black satin plants that hung low on her stomach, and a scoop necked halter that showed off her colorful tattoo. A pair of black boots covered her feet and her hair was up in a messy up-do and her make-up also done natural.
“Me too.” Theresa giggled as she noticed Regis appear. “Hi Regis.”
“Hello ladies.” He said politely shaking each of their hands.
-Back in Orlando-
“I can’t believe I am up this early to watch Regis.” Nick yawned looking at A.J and Kevin whose eyes were glued to the TV set.
“Hey I can, I have to see my babe perform on TV.”
“Oh get over it A.J, you just want to see how many times Theresa mentions your name.” Nick smirked just as the last commercial ended and the show came back on.
“Shh…there’s Steph!” Kevin stated hushing them as Regis began their interview.
“I’ve heard you girls have been pretty busy huh?” Regis asked.
“Yeah…we’ve had to do a lot of promotional stuff for the album and also a lot of interviews.” Stephanie smiled back at him as the other girls gloated about being on national TV.
“Now you three just finished a tour…tell us about it.”
“We had a lot of fun, cause we were the opening act for the Backstreet Boys which are total gentlemen to say, but their fans are awesome!” Theresa gushed.
“Yeah…we were afraid that they’d boo us off just cause we were three unknown girls…but they didn’t they gave us a chance.” Lisa finished off.
“Did you just see that Kevin?” A.J blurted out pointing at the screen.
“No, what?” Kevin asked.
“Regis was just scopping out Stephanie’s legs.” A.J laughed.
“You seen that too?” Nick chuckled looking at A.J.
“YEP.” A.J continued to laugh as Kevin watched Regis do it again.
“That old bastard!” Kevin bellowed.
“What about boyfriends girl? Three lovely ladies as yourself shouldn’t…well couldn’t be alone.” The female co-host questioned.
“Well I’m single.” Stephanie smiled at the camera.
“Me too…I think it kind of hard trying to keep a relationship in this business.”
“Yeah…” Stephanie nodded.
“Well…I’m taken.” Theresa blushed resting her hands on her tight black satin pants.
“That’s right…Theresa you’re currently dating a Backstreet Boy am I right?”
“Yeah.”
“Which one?” Regis wondered.
“A.J.” Theresa replied.
“Oh the rebel one.” The co-host giggled. “How long?”
“Um…about two or three months.” Theresa replied smiling and silently praying that they would get off the subject of her and her love life.
“Well Theresa I also noticed a tattoo on your back…what is it?”
“Oh my tattoo…” Theresa smiled and turned around to show Regis then the cameras. “It’s a heart with a rose and flames.”
“Shit has Donna seen that now?”
“I don’t know but I bet she has now.” A.J chuckled crossing his arms. After they asked the girls a couple more questions the show was over.
“So guys, lookie, our girls are growing up in the world.” Kevin smirked standing up from the couch and headed into A.J’s kitchen.
“Yep.” A.J nodded. “Hey Nick, where’s Abby?”
“She visiting her family…I miss her.” Nick sighed.
“Woah, Nicky boy are you serious about her??” Kevin chuckled.
“Yeah I think I am…I don’t know…I really like her.” Nick flushed.
“Ooo…Nick’s in love.” A.J gushed like a little girl.
“Whatever J, I’m not the one in love, you are!” Nick laughed winking at him.
“No Nick…A.J’s just whipped.” Kevin snickered.
“Ha! I don’t think so.” Just then the phone rang and A.J ran to answer it. “Hello.”
“Hey baby…did you watch Regis today?” Theresa’s soft voice asked.
“Of course I did.” A.J said smiling like a two year old receiving a present.
“See told ya.” Kevin whispered to Nick.
-The next day-
Pulling her blond locks into a black scrunchie, Theresa checked over her things to make sure she had everything. “I think that’s it.” She muttered to herself checking the bathroom one last time. Nodding in satisfaction, she headed out of the bedroom airplane ticket in hand.
“Theresa!” She heard Stephanie call. “Where are you going?”
“Back home…”
“Why?” Stephanie cut in her hands resting tightly against her hips.
“Cause A.J’s birthday is tomorrow and he’s doing his premiere of Johnny No-Name.” Theresa stated heading for the elevator while looking at her watch. “I’m gonna miss my plane.”
“Does Donna know?” Stephanie asked.
“Yes.” Theresa nodded. “See ya tomorrow Steph.” With that the elevator does shut and she started to descend to level one. Quickly hailing down a cab, Theresa jumped in and told them her destination.
“So where are you heading off to miss?” A elder black man asked.
“I’m off to Orlando to see my boyfriend for his birthday.” She smiled.
“Aye, I see.”
“Hello.” She said answering her cell phone.
“Hey baby…so did Donna let you off for tomorrow.” A.J’s rough voice asked on the other line.
“Oh…I’m so sorry…we’ve just got so much promotional stuff we’ve gotta do. Forgive me. I promise to make it up to you when I get home.” Theresa sighed with a pout.
“Its ok…” A.J trailed off, hurt present in his voice.
