Maggie went through her closet and decided to wear her long black skirt, a brown tube top, and her black sandals. She wore her braids down. She decided to put on her matching earring and necklace set that was made out of shells. She decided to call Jessica and let her know what happened.

"Hello" Justin said.

"Hey Justin, is Jess there"? Maggie asked.

"Yeah…hold up a second," Justin said.

"Hey girl" Jessica said into the phone.

"Hey…guess what" Maggie said.

"What"

"You are talking to a Backstreet member"

"Omigod…you go girl"

"I am so happy…I meet the guys and they are so nice…tomorrow I will be leaving and going to New York to meet Fatima"

"Really tomorrow…that’s fast"

"Yeah…then we will be on TRL"

"Dam, your big time now"

"Yeah, I’m going out for dinner tonight with the boys, so I was wondering maybe after dinner you could help me pack"

"Yeah call me when you get in"

"Okay I have to jet…later days"

"Bye" Jessica said hanging up.

Maggie arrived at The Shack at around 8:05. She found all the guys sitting at a table with an empty seat. She walked up to them.

"Hey" Maggie said.

"Hi" Kevin said standing up and everyone was else following his lead.

"Sit down…you don’t have to stand for me…just treat me like one of the guys" Maggie said taking a seat.

"Cool" Nick said.

They all ordered their meals and the boys told Maggie pretty much everything to expect in being in the group. They let her know that tomorrow would be hard work because Fatima would have her dancing her butt off for the whole day. Maggie learned a lot about the guys and their families. She made sure they knew she was a fan for some time and that it was kind of weird to now be apart of the group. When dinner was over they all went their separate ways and get some sleep since they had an early flight tomorrow.

Maggie saw Jessica’s car in the driveway.

"Jess" Maggie, yelled once in the condo.

"Yeah, I’m in your room" Jessica said.

They packed everything Maggie would need for her trip.

"Don’t you have to pack an outfit for TRL" Jessica asked.

"Nope, one of the cool things about being in this group is that you get free clothes" Maggie said.

The two girls talked and laughed for a few hours and Jessica decided to spend the night.

"Dam what time is it" Maggie asked getting up off the couch where her and Jessica spent the night.

"Um…it’s 9 a.m." Jessica said.

"Oh shit the plane leaves at 10:25, I have to take a shower," Maggie said running up to her bathroom.

She came back done with her braids in a high ponytail. She wore her khaki cargo pants, a tight black tank top, and her white sneakers.

"Dam that was fast, girl calm down it is only 9:20…you have some time" Jessica said.

"Yeah, I’m calm…I just don’t want to mess up with the dancing"

"Girl please…you know you can dance just as good as Janet Jackson, if not better" Jessica said trying to make her friend fell better.

"I wouldn’t go that far, but I hope I don’t mess up too much"

"You’ll be fine…not let’s get some breakfast.

They both sat at the kitchen table and ate a bowl of Total Cereal.

"I can’t believe you are joining a group with a bunch of white boys." Jessica said out of nowhere.

"Please, who cares…I don’t and the boys don’t seem to care" Maggie said.

"Okay, just get ready to hear all the criticism form the critics" Jessica said.

"Please I’m ready to face them…I just hope the Backstreet Boys fans are willing to accept me" Maggie said.

Jessica dropped Maggie off at the airport. Maggie meet the guys in the VIP lobby lounge. All the boys were sitting down talking and were joined by a few bodyguards. She took a deep breath and walked up to her band mates.

"Um hi guys" Maggie said.

They all sat around and talked for a few minutes. Maggie and A.J. had definitely formed some kind of bond. It was just easy for the both of them to talk.

"I’m glad you’re apart of the group" A.J. said smiling.

"Yeah, I’m glad I’m apart of the group," Maggie said looking into his brown eyes.

"So are you ready to shake your ass today"? A.J. asked.

"I guess" Maggie said remembering why she was headed off to New York.

"Don’t worry Fatima will like you" A.J. said.

"Let’s hope so," Maggie said.

Just then their flight was announced. A.J. and Maggie sat next to each other, with Howie and Kevin sitting next to each other, and Brian and Nick together. They arrived in New York and got into a van that drove them to their hotel. Everyone got his or her own room. Everyone settled in their rooms and got ready to go to the dance studio. Soon they were all back in the van.

"I am so nervous," Maggie said.

"Don’t be…everything will be alright," Brian said.

"You think" Maggie replied.

"We know" Howie said flashing his sweet smile.

Fatima was in the middle of one of her speeches to the backup dancers.

"Come on in guys" Fatima said.

All the guys gave her a friendly hug and started stretching out.

"You must be Maggie" Fatima said with a very friendly smile.

"Yep" Maggie said.

"Donna told me you’re a dancer," Fatima said.

"Well I used to take dancing classes as a teenager" Maggie replied.

"Okay…I hope you’re a quick learner girl…we don’t have much time until the tour begins" Fatima said.

"I’m a good learner…just be gentle with me" Maggie said laughing.

Soon they all were in their positions. Fatima had Larger Than Life blasting and was yelling out commands. Fatima was very impressed on how good Maggie could dance. She had the steps pretty much mastered, and was even teaching Brian a step he couldn’t get. They danced for 3 straight hours and got a 30 minutes brake and were soon back to work. The time was now 9 p.m. and everyone was pretty much ready to pass out. Fatima gathered everyone (even backup dancers) for one of her speeches.

"Okay people that was good. This is only the first day so I know you can all do better. I will see you all tomorrow morning…until then get some rest" Fatima said.

"Dam, another day of this" Nick complained.

"Yep we are going to be dancing all weekend and Donna said that we will be on TRL on Monday" Brian said.

"This wasn’t as bad as I thought" Maggie said.

"You’re just like A.J. you actually love dancing all day and getting all sweaty," Kevin said.
