"So what's planned for Paris?" I asked when I got out of the shower.
"Well we're staying for three days. Today we have an interview with the guys at the radio station that's sponsoring the concert tomorrow night. Then Saturday we relax before we leave to go to Frankfort." Taylor said.
"What should I wear?" I asked digging through my bag.
"How about your new dress? I love the way you look in it. You have great legs." He said taking the dress out of my bag and kissed me. I loved my new dress, it was just a simple spaghetti strap, short, black dress. It was fitted at the top and then it got looser. And it DID bring out my legs.
"Hey Amy Lee-looking good." Care said as she walked in. "Do you think that I should wear my new dress?"
"Yeah," Taylor said. "We're all going out to dinner tonight at some nice restaurant so I guess we should dress nice."
I liked Care's dress too. It was sleeveless with black flowers on burgundy background.
"Oh what's this? We are all dressing up today?" Beth asked once she got out of the shower. Tay told her about the dinner. So she wore her new dress too. Her's was a spaghetti strap black dress with burgundy flowers her's unlike Care's and mine was flowing/not tight, but still short like ours. I'd have to borrow it sometime.
The interview was at 4:30pm and we got there at like a quarter after. The radio station was in a mall so Beth, Care, Jessica and I went shopping while the guys did their interview.
"So Jessica, do you like touring with your brothers?" I asked while looking at jewelry.
"Yeah it's pretty fun. But it does screw up your sleep schedule."
"Tell me about it." Care yawned.
"Hey is anyone up for pizza? Oh wait nevermind we're going out to eat in like an hour."
"Yeah Beth that's just why we are dressed up." I said laughing.
"Okay so I'm a little off today. Leave me alone."
"Hey let's check out the latest rumors on my brothers" Jessica said as we approached a magazine stand.
"Oh check this one out-Taylor's dating the former Baby Spice." Care laughed.
"Wow, Amy Lee I didn't know you were a Spice Girl." Jessica laughed.
"Neither did I but who said anything about Tay and I dating?" I asked.
"Oh come on Amy after all the you've done together it'd be a crime for you NOT to be going out." Beth said.
"Yeah and since when did Taylor start saying 'I love you' to just anyone?" Jessica added.
"Do you think I'll come up in any of the interviews?" I asked.
"Eventually, you all will." Jessica answered. While getting group pictures taken in one of the mall photo booths all three of our pagers went off.
"GOD DAMN!!" I yelled laughing. "It's going to take me like a year to get used to having a pager."
"I guess this means that we have to go. Huh?" Beth said. So we waited for our pictures to come out and then we took off for the radio station.
"Hey we have a problem" Care said looking at our pictures.
"What's that?" I asked as I dodged a person giving free samples of preztels.
"Well there are 6 pictues but only 4 of us. Who gets the other two?"
"Oh THAT'S easy." Jess started, "Mom and Dad. They love you so much they'd feel bad if we didn't give them the extra two."
"Okay then it's stettled." I said taking my picture.
I swear as soon as we walked through the door of the radio station we were attacked with kisses, but we happily returned them.
"Geez Zac I was only gone for an hour." Care said between kisses. Zac then took her by her shoulders and said with all seriousness, "I'll have you know it was an hour and 3.75 minutes." Zac was so funny.
"Oh Diana, Walker we got our pictures taken and we want you to have the extra two." Beth said giving them each one.
"Thank you" Diana said hugging us all. "You girls are so pretty -aren't they boys?"
"Yeah they are." Taylor said, "Even you Jess." He said sacrastically.
"Thanks" she said hitting him.
"No really Jess you are very pretty." Isaac said.
"Thanks Ike."
"Yeah you are," Taylor said hugging her.
We ate dinner at a fancy restaraunt called The Capitol Hilton at about 6:30. The food was great but the service was extremely slow. At around 7:15 two teenage girls approached the table.
"Are you Hanson?" They asked trying their hardest to stay calm.
"Yes" Isaac, Tay and Zac all said at once.
"Oh my god I can't belive our luck. Can we have your autograph?"
"Sure" It was wonderful to watch them interact withtheir fans but their fans didn't seem too happy to see them interact with us. So we confronted the matter during dessert.
"You know we've noticed something." Beth started.
"What's that hon?" Isaac asked turning towards her. I could tell that she wouldn't be able to finish so I took over.
"We've noticed that your other fans don't seem too happy with us and we're worried that it'll effect your sales and stuff. And you know we definetly don't want that. We just aren't sure if us being on tour with you is the best thing. Y'know?"
"Yeah we know but they're just gonna have to get over it. They all knew that we'd get girlfriends eventually, so it's not your fault. They don't hate you personally they just wish they were you." Zac said.
"So don't worry about it. Okay sweeties?" Diana said. I swear she always knew what to say whenever any of us weren't feeling the best. I was beginning to feel really close to her.
We got back to the hotel around 8:30. Mackenzie and Zoe were already sleeping. (Hanson's manager watched them again)
"Ther's plenty of time left tonight, what should we do?" I asked.
"I could think of something." Taylor said as he pulled me towards him and kissed me.
"Now seriously, is that all that I am to you?" I asked pulling away, pleading with my eyes. I loved him so much I wished I meant more to him.
"No Amy, I love you. I love you with all my heart. I'm sorry if I make it seem that I don't." He was just holding my hand now. I was near tears. "Amy, what's wrong?" He asked as he lead me to his room.
"There's just so much you don't know." I said as the first few tears began to fall.
"Tell me please." He asked as he wiped the tears from my eyes and we sat down on the bed. So I told him. I started with my dad and how he sexually abused me. Then I told him about around my eigth grade year my best friend and I became known as the only two slutty virgins. I then moved back to Mora that November and was raped that May. By someone I knew. And then I fell in love with Justin that summer. I honestly thought we'd be together forever so I had sex with him that November. He then broke up with me two weeks after that AND a week after dating a good friend of mine. That hurt a lot. I got my self worth up more and I quit that sexual stuff but was scarred for life.
"I'm so sorry Amy." Taylor said as he rocked me in his arms crying with me. "I'm so sorry." And he kissed my forehead and ran his fingers through my hair.
I looked up at him, "That's why I haven't accepted your virginity. I feel as if I won't be good enough and you'll leave me. I love you so much."
"I love you too." Tay said. "Now we won't go out tonight so stay here I'll be right back." I laid down and started to relax. I felt so much better now that I told him.
