CLASS OF 2000
Chapter Five
Rose looked through
her wardrobe for something to wear.
"I found
it," she said as she got a midriff shirt and leather pants with platforms.
"Rose?"
Mr. Andrews asked.
"Yeah, Mr.
Andrews?" Rose asked.
"Your opening act
is here," he replied.
"All right.
I'm ready," she said, walking over to him.
"I like that
outfit. Maybe you could wear that for the photo shoot," he told her.
"Thanks. I
thought it was cute," Rose said.
"Well, let's
go," he said, and escorted her to the hotel where Jack was staying.
"May I help
you, sir?" the woman at the front desk asked.
"We need to
see..." Mr. Andrews started.
"Oh, my
goodness. You're Rose Bukater!" the woman said.
"Yeah. We need
to see her opening act," Mr. Andrews said.
"Could you
make sure that nobody comes in for about thirty minutes?" Rose asked.
"Yes. Will do.
It was nice to meet you," the woman said.
"You,
too," Mr. Andrews said.
Mr. Andrews guided
Rose to Jack's hotel room and knocked on the door.
"Hello,"
Jack said.
"Jack, it's
us," Mr. Andrews said.
"Sorry, Mr.
Andrews. Didn't mean to be weird," Jack said, opening the door.
"Jack, this is
Rose Bukater," Mr. Andrews said.
"Oh, my God.
Rose?" Jack asked.
"Jack? Is that
you?" Rose asked.
"Oh, my
goodness!" they said, hugging each other.
"Do you two
know each other?" Mr. Andrews asked, confused.
"We were
friends," Jack said.
"Yeah. I can't
believe it," Rose said.
"Well, it's a
small world," Mr. Andrews said.
"Yeah,"
Rose and Jack said.
"The Teen Choice
Awards are coming up, Rose," Mr. Andrews said.
"So your point
is?" Rose asked.
"Well, you're
going to be introducing Jack's new song Only For You," Mr. Andrews
said.
"Sounds
cool," Rose said.
"I'm going to
be singing at the Teen Choice Awards?" Jack asked.
"Yeah,"
Mr. Andrews said.
"Well, we need
to practice, then," Rose said.
"I
agree," Jack said.
"All right.
Let's get going," Mr. Andrews said, and they all left.
