Through the next few weeks no one really had time to do anything together. Take 5 had accepted a tour, LFO started to do promotional stuff in Europe, and Higher Ground was working on their album. When Sarah got a phone call from TJ he told her that they were stopping in England next and she began to cry. “Will you take me there someday, TJ?” “Well the CD is just about done. We’re going to be here for a 3 days. Why don’t you fly out here and I can show you England when you get here.” “No. We both knew that when we got into this relationship that we wouldn’t be able to see each other very often. I just have to accept that.” “Well, Sarah. I’m sure Lou will let you come out for one day. Let me talk to him and we’ll work something out. Besides, you have got to get Monica out here. Britney Spears keeps hitting on Ryan. He keeps telling her ‘I love my girlfriend.’ But she won’t listen. Hurry and come see me!” Then they both said their “good-byes” and “I love you’s” as they hung up. Not even an hour later Sarah got a call from Lou. “Sarah, TJ need you in London. So is it ok if your first video is filmed there?” “Sure. No problem Lou. The girls will be thrilled! I know I am.” When Sarah hung up the phone she turned to Angela and Kylie, who were standing in the hallway praying to go and Sarah said “Go pack your stuff. We’re going to film our first video in London!” Sarah immediately ran across the hall to Teallie & Jen’s apartment to tell them as Kylie & Angela went to go pack. As Sarah threw TJ favorite outfits into a bag Kylie walked in. What about Monica? Ryan won’t be able to see her. I know! Why don’t we put her in the video?” Sarah and Angela both thought it was a great idea and Angela ran to call Monica. Monica was in school back in Michigan but luckily she was about to go on a week long break. She started to freak out and forgot that she left the phone off the hook as she ran to go get packed. Then she realized about the phone and quickly ran downstairs to hang it up.
On the flight the girls all went over and over in their minds what they would do first when the guys picked them up at the airport and Sarah kept thinking. “I’m gonna be in England with TJ. Now how will I make this as memorable for him and it will be just being there with him for me.” That’s when the plane touched down and everyone got up and started walking off. The girls all grabbed the bags they had on the flight and walked toward the airport. Then Sarah, Teallie, & Angela all heard their names as TJ, Stevie & Clay all ran towards them. The girls dropped their bags and ran over to the guys. Teallie ran up to Clay and kissed him. Angela jumped on Stevie’s back and hugged him. Sarah ran up to TJ and stopped right in front of him. “Hey you.” She smiled at him. Then she hugged and kissed him. TJ held Sarah so tight that she could hardly breathe but she didn’t even notice because TJ whispered to her. “I’m so glad you came. I love you.” And then he softly began to sing “Save The Best For Last” as they held each other even tighter. When Monica, Kylie, & Jen reached everyone else Monica looked really upset and asked. “Where’s Ryan?” Clay smiled at her and told her. “Ryan doesn’t know you’re coming. We thought you could surprise him.”
