“Hey Theresa, who’s at the door?” I asked really curious.
“I’m not sure….” She said peering at the beautiful flowers sitting at our doorstep.
“Hey, is there a note? Lemme see!” I yelled excitedly while walking over to the door and picking up the flowers to check for a note.
“Oooh…here it is!!! I’ll read it:
Our dearest ladies,
We’re all very glad that we met you this evening and cannot wait to see how beautiful you all look tonight! Meet us in the dining room at 7 PM. See ya there!
Love Always,
The Backstreet Boys
(AJ, Nick, Brian, Kevin, and Howie)
I couldn’t breathe! I was standing there clutching the note to my heart and holding my breathe. I finally looked up at the rest of my friends and they all looked just like I did!
“You’ve gotta be kidding! Tell me they weren’t the Backstreet Boys!!!” I screamed thinking back to that AJ guy.
“Okay, okay, so they’ve gotta be them,” Vic said coming to a realization, “I mean, they were all very nice and like normal people, right?”
“Yeah, I suppose you’re right. After all, that AJ was really handsome and well, I’m so excited about tonight!”
Ahhhhh…….I can’t believe I’ve actually met one of the Backstreet Boys and he kissed me!!!! I grabbed my black velvet dress with the long sleeves, scoop neck, and slit up the side and put it on. I had to admit that I looked pretty good with my blonde hair all curled and fixed just perfectly and my cherry red lips brought out my blue eyes perfectly. AJ would love this dress….well, I hoped he would!

So that blonde haired guy must have been Nick Carter from the Backstreet Boys!!! Aaah! He must have thought I was so stupid not to recognize him. Ugh! Oh, I understand why he left now…..he thought that I might recognize him. Awww….that was so sweet of him to beat the drink machine up so that I could get my drink! What a sweetie?! Let’s see, that note said the Backstreet Boys, so that means that Nick will probably be at dinner tonight! I sighed and started looking through my clothes to find something to wear.
“Hey guys, what should I wear? The green dress or the black one?” I questioned holding them both up for examination.
They all agreed that I should wear my green one. It was a silk, prom-dress sort of dress. It had lots of pretty gold sequins at the top part and was laced up in the back. It was my favorite dress!!! Nick will just die, well, if he’s there….
I pulled my hair up into a French twist and put a bit of baby’s breath in it and left one strand of my dark brown hair gently twisted around the frame of my face. I applied my makeup and grabbed my purse and was about to leave when I realized in was only 6:30…..only 30 more minutes….

I stepped out of the bathroom after fixing my long brown hair so that it lied just perfectly across my shoulders.
I applied my make-up and put on the right hint of eyeshadow in order to bring out my bluish-green eyes. I sprayed a bit of my fave perfume on and tried to decide what to wear….the blue dress or the green one. I held them both up and examined them and decided to go more sexy, than glam. I opted for the blue one. The blue dress had a very form fitting bodice, spaghetti straps, and swayed just above my knees. It was gorgeous!
“Hey, guys, what do ya think?” I asked stepping out from behind the mirror in order for them to see me.
“Wow! You look great!” Vic said.
“Thanks, but I need some shoes…” I said exasperated.
“Ditto,” Kelly said. “Hey wait, I’ve got some shoes that will match that dress perfectly and you give me your strappy black ones,” she suggested.
“Okay, sure!”
Kelly and I exchanged shoes and then I examined my self once more in the mirror.
“Okay, are we all ready to go?! I’m soooo excited and nervous! We don’t want to be late,” I said grabbing my satin purse and heading for the door.
“Nope! Come back here….I can’t decide what to wear!!!” Vic whined anxiously.
“Alright, alright….”

We finally determined that the white dress would look best to accentuate my glowing green eyes. I applied my make-up and perfume while I debated whether to curl my hair or leave it straight. I asked my friends what to do and they said neither, that they would all help me put my hair into an upside-down frenchbraid. “Are you guys sure this will look alright?” I asked worried.
“Yes! You look fabulous, Vic!” Gail exclaimed.
I looked into the mirror and had to admit that I hadn’t looked this good since prom night when I went with my ex-boyfriend, Greg. The dress I was wearing flowed down to my ankles, with a slit up the side, like Kelly’s black dress, except mine was sort of slinky. The top was fit like a halter top and was cut open in the back. I was stunning!!! Not to sound conceited, but I had to be confident, after all, I was about to go out to eat with Kevin Richardson of the Backstreet Boys!!!
“Alright, guys, ya ready? We don’t wanna keep the boys waiting, now do we?” I said teasingly.
We all grabbed our purses and left the room.

Well, all five of us finally arrived in the dining room which also turned out to be a sort of like ball room. It was very beautiful. There were several tables and booths and we didn’t know where to sit, but we saw a table in the center of the room that said “Reserved” on it and since us and the Backstreet Boys were the only people staying there, it had to mean us.
We all took our seats and started talking quietly about how excited we were. I couldn’t wait until the guys (especially Howie) got there.
“Hey you guys, it’s quarter after 7…do you think they’ll come?” I said glancing around when all of a sudden someone placed their hand over my eyes. I squealed and heard, “Guess who?”
I turned around and saw Howie D. standing right there in his black tuxedo with a red rose in his hand. I was nothing but mush…he was just sooo ah…handsome!
As soon as he gave me the rose, he sat down beside me and then AJ, Brian, and Kevin all walked in with roses as well. They all looked great, I had to admit, but Howie….wow!
We were sitting there chatting a bit and Howie reached down and grabbed my hand gently kissed it and told me how beautiful I looked.
“That’s it! I can’t take it anymore…where is Nick, you guys?!” Gail exclaimed standing up, throwing her napkin down on the table.
Everyone looked up, and Brian answered, “Gail, I really don’t know. He came into the room this afternoon, took a shower, and then left. He didn’t say anything to us about where he was going. I’m sorry.”
“Okay, fine….look, I don’t want to be around here. I’ll catch you later guys,” Gail said storming off with nothing but her shadow lingering in the dining room.
