CHAPTER 17
It was now around 8:00pm. No one had seen a whole lot of Brian today. Nick was still a little upset at everyone over the night before. Kevin was determined to hook up with Andy while she was here. He decided to go to her room. He knocked on the door. Andy answered the door.
"Oh hi Kev" she said giving him a hug.
"Hi…am I bothering you" Kevin said while walking into the room.
"No I was just watching some TV. Howie got a headache and went to bed…so I’m left to hang by myself" Andy said turning off the TV.
"Sit down" she said pointing to the couch.
Andy sat next the Kevin on the couch.
"So whats up" Andy said looking him in the eyes.
"Nothing really…just wanted to know if maybe you would like to go out tonight…like we could grab something to eat and catch a movie…you know" Kevin said looking into her dark brown eyes.
"Um…" Andy said feeling a little uncomfortable because if she didn’t know any better it seemed like a date.
"That’s okay if you don’t want to" Kevin said getting up from the couch.
"No that’s not what I mean…let me just get changed" Andy said not wanting to sound rude.
She came out wearing her dark blue denim jeans and her black leather coat over her black tank top and she was wearing her boots. She wore her hair done with a black headband.
"Okay…lets go," she said grabbing her purse.
"Okay…so what movie do you want to see?" Kevin asked opening the door for her.
"Um…I don’t know…wait before we go let me tell Kara that I’m leaving" Andy said heading towards A.J.’s room.
"She knocked on the door and A.J. answered.
"Dam you look good…where you going?" A.J. asked.
"Thanks, Kevin and I are going to hang out tonight" Andy said letting herself in the room.
"Kevin?" A.J. asked confused and then Kevin walked in behind Andy.
"Whats up Bone?" Kevin asked.
"Nothing" A.J. answered still looking very confused.
Andy walked up to Kara.
"Just so that you won’t worry to much I am hanging with Kevin" Andy said.
"Please I will not worry…why Kevin?" Kara whispered.
"We are just going to hang out…Howie has a real bad headache and went to bed" Andy said whispering back.
"Oh okay…I hope you two have fun" Kara said looking at Kevin.
"Thanks…we should get going" Kevin said standing by the door.
"Yeah your right" Andy said walking towards him.
They left and were now inside a trendy restaurant.
"So what movie did you want to watch?" Andy asked.
"Oh…I’m not sure…I was thinking the Blair Witch Project or maybe The Broken Down Palace" Kevin said.
"Oh…I don’t know about the Blair Witch Project…lets see The Broken Down Palace" Andy said looking in Kevin’s eyes. She never noticed, but his eyes were so beautiful. She loved his southern accent and the way he made her feel like it was all about her. Wait she thought could I have feelings for Kevin? No, she liked Howie.
"Are you okay" Kevin said shaking Andy’s hand.
"What…yeah I’m good…I was just thinking" Andy said snapping out of her daze.
They ate their dinner and headed to the movies. Ronnie the bodyguard had to accompany them. He sat in the back of the movies keeping a good eye on Kevin. During the whole movie Kevin and Andy held hands. She was a little confused. She didn’t want to let go. When the movie was over, they held hands all the way back to the limousine. They arrived back at the hotel. Kevin walked her back to her hotel room.
"I had a good time tonight," Kevin said.
"So did I…I wonder how Howie is doing?" Andy asked.
"I’m sure he is okay," Kevin said trying to change the subject.
"Yeah well anyway…I will see you tomorrow," Andy said opening her room door.
Kevin stopped her and leaned in and gave her a kiss. Andy pulled away.
"What are you doing" Andy said pushing Kevin away.
"Um…I thought you…" Kevin began saying.
"You were wrong…I am with Howie…I thought he was your friend" Andy said raising her voice.
"I’m sorry…I just really had a good time…I thought you felt the same way about me," Kevin said.
"Kevin I like you, but not like that…I just can’t believe you kissed me" Andy said leaning against the door.
"I’m sorry…I have feelings for you…I think I will be leaving" Kevin said walking away.
"Wait you can’t just say you have feelings for me and kiss me and then walk away" Andy said pulling his arm.
"But I thought you said that you didn’t like me in that way" Kevin said in a low voice.
Just then Howie walked out of his room.
"Their you two are, Kevin I know your not trying to still my girl" Howie said joking.
"Your girl?" Andy said.
"I’m playing babe," Howie said kissing her on the check.
"I know honey…are you feeling better," Andy said putting one arm around his waist.
"Yeah…I feel good," Howie answered.
Kevin looked at the both of them. They were so good for each other. They cared about each other so much.
"So did you two have fun?" Howie asked.
"Yeah we did…look I’m going to go back to my room…I’ll see you all tomorrow" Kevin said walking away from Howie and Andy.
"Want to come in?" Andy asked.
"Yeah" Howie said walking into the room.
"Kara Kara" Andy yelled.
"Oh her and A.J. went out…to a club I think" Howie said.
"I see…lets go back to your room…I don’t want Kara to walk in on us," Andy said.
"Alright" Howie said.
"Let me get my stuff" Andy said disappearing into the bedroom.
Andy left Kara a note and she and Howie were headed to his room.
