- I know you too much Dude... He turned to him with a question looked on his face.
- Run this by me again ?!
- Ya like the Girl Bone... A lot.
- What are you talking about ?!
- Sid.... You like her ! AJ looked at Howie for a long time and then sighted and said:
- Yeah okay...Maybe I do… What should I do D ?!
- Ask her...
- What ? OUT ?! Howie smiled and nodded.
- I can't do that !
- Why not ?! You're AJ McLean, Backstreet Boy’s biggest flirt ! Just go for it ! AJ looked at Sidney again and turned to his friend.
- Maybe I should ask her out...
- Try my friend. The worst you can get is a Big " no "... AJ smiled, got up and whispered:
- Thanks D...I'll do that... Howie smiled and said:
- That's what I'm here for... And to sing when I got nothing else to do... AJ turned to him and they both laughed. Sidney tried to drink some of her Orange jus but just the smell of it made her want to vomit. She put the glass down and gets up. She walks towards the exit. Passing the guys, Brian asks:
- Are you okay Sid?!
- I think I'm gonna puke... She walk faster to the exit and then stopped. Nick walks in and stops too. He looked at her; she looked at him true her sunglass, for a long time. Then, she walks by him and got out. Nick came to the other guys and he said:
- What's up with her?!
- She got drunk last night and now she's got a hang over... Where were you last night ?! We were waiting for you to show up...
- Fell a sleep... And he grins. Brian pushes him.
- Yeah right !!! Sidney was sitting in one of the make up chairs, her hand to her forehead. She had this awful headache and was trying to get ride of it.
- One suggestion... Never drink too much again when you know you're working tomorrow. She turned to find AJ standing there. He walks towards her and handed her a bottle of aspirin. She smiled and took it.
- Thanks... So how did yesterday end?!
- I left like 20 minutes after you and the other guys went to sleep. Are you okay ?
- I'm fine except for that awful pounding in my mind... He laughed and sat down on a box next to her.
- Well, I wanted to ask you something.... She looked at him suspicious.
- Shoot.
- I wanted to know if you got anything special tomorrow night?!
Well, except the fact that you guys have a big show in a town 45 minutes from here…. Nothing, why?!
- I wanted to know if you wanted, and only if you want... I wanted to take you out... She looked at him, suspicious.
- Out. You want to take me out... He nodded.
- As in a " Date " out?! He nodded again.
- I know we've known each other for 2 years now but, I mean I've grow to like you a lot and now I wanna see if my feelings are good or not. So, it's a " yes " or a " no " ? A smiled appeared softly on her lips. She moves closer to him and said:
- I would love too... He smiled and whispered:
- Good... He got up, took one look at her.
- Now, go to your room and rest, get that headache out of your head. She laughed softly. He came, kiss her forehead and left. Sidney felt this awful feeling. Him, Kissing her forehead...Not Nick...weird situation. She sighted got up and went to find Linda to tell her she needed a day off. Sidney sleeps all day. It did her some good and she didn't even wake up until really late that night.. And until Nick came to her room. She was still sleeping, went she felt the bed moving and a body getting close to hers. She didn't move and then felt some hands on her stomach and her back, rubbing her skin softly. She opened her eyes and turned to find the familiar face of Nick. He smiled softly and whispered:
- Hey...
- What are you doing here?!
- I was thinking about you and I ended up here... He kissed her neck and her face but she pushed him away.
- Nick, stop, not now....
-Why not ?! I really want Sid... He kissed her neck again. She pushed him.
- Your not gonna win this time Carter.... No, means no.... He sat strait in the bed.
- What's up with you ?!
- I just don't want to...I'm not a toy you can play around with Nick... He looked at her for some and then said:
- Nope... you're not... He got up and left the room, slamming the door. She put her head back to the pillow... and cried. Why can't he ever understand?! The next morning, all the guys are in the make up room, Linda working on them. Linda's doing Kevin and Brian and Sidney helps by doing AJ and Howie. AJ doesn’t stood fooling around and Sidney can't stop giggling. The other boys laugh, enjoying seeing her better then yesterday. Then, Nick comes into the room a huge smile on his face.
- Hey Guys!!! He goes to Linda and gives her a noisy smooch on the cheek. He turns and when he sees Sidney, his smile drop and he just whispers:
- Oh... Hey Sid...
-Well, Hello to you too.... All the guys watch those two and wonder what is going on with them. Nick goes into the bathroom and closes the door. Sidney continues working on Alex but he asks:
- What's up with you two ?! She looks at him weird.
- What do you mean?!
- I mean you guys were practically inseparable at 16 and now you're like, discussed by each other. She sights.
- Let's says we faded away... Brian gets out of the chair, finished.
- Well, all he talked before was about you, you and only you.... I thought the guy had this huge crush on you. But now, he's got this new girl... And he won't even talk about her. All I know is that they are more then friends... AJ looks at Sidney in a flash. She looks at him and whispers in her mind: " Don't jump to any conclusion...it's not what you think. " He lets go of her look, seeming to forget about this idea of his and put a soft smile on his face. Later in the afternoon, Sidney walks to the stadium and then is being pulled into a room. She yells and the door close. Inside she feels a breath on her neck and is shaking like a leaf but true her fright she hears.
- Relax Sid...It's me.... It's Nick... Come on relax.... He let her go and she starts hitting him hard.
- Ouch!! What was that for ?!
- You scared the shit out of me Nick!!! That wasn’t a good idea!!!
- Soooorrrryyyy !!
- Now, what do you want?! He looks at her and she understands.
- No, Nick, not now !
- What 's matter with you ?! You don't wanna ever do it anymore....
- I'm sorry to disappoint you Nick but Sex is not the only important thing in my life... And Beside, your gonna see less of me....
- Why?!
-’Cause I'm going on a date tonight.
- Really?! With who ?! She feels some sort of jalousie in his words but she's not sure so she just forget about and walks away.
- You won't tell me...
- Why should I?! We're not exclusively to ourselves.... She walks out of the room. Nick punches the wall and slid down the wall. Okay, so she's right he never said she was his and that she couldn't see anybody. It's been going on for so long, Nick had some girlfriends but when that happened, he always stopped going to her to be far to his girl. But it wasn’t the same, Sidney had something that any other girl didn't have and he never understood what. All he could say was that the way she did it was very different from others. He thought he knew Sidney was a friend and he was a friend to her, no feelings involved. She always seemed to be fine with it, the few first times and then it became like something natural to both of then, at least that's what he thought. But now, Now... She was having another relationship except from him or with him and Nick didn't like it… at all. He didn't want her to go and see someone else. He wanted her to be with him, be like this all the time. All he knew was that knowing Sidney was with another guy made him mad....
