~*Chapter One*~
Child of the universe, down on her knees
That’s the way I feel, I’m begging you please
How did you find out, that’s what I want to know
When you looked into my eyes, were my feelings on show?
Now it’s over, said and gone,
But still I think of you, I still wait by the phone
How could it be, that you didn’t understand?
When I said I wanted more that friends
We yelled and fought, till hearts made amends
My pleading with drive you senseless, this much I know
But I’ve got to tell you something, this is what you need to know …
AJ listened to Leesa rehearsing, her voice shaking with emotion and longing. He couldn’t help hoping that the one she was singing about was him, but then again, she was his best friend. He’d seen Dawson’s Creek. He knew what horrible things would happen if they were to get together. But still, he couldn’t help but think what might be if he had enough courage to tell her.
Nick snuck up behind him.
"BOO!"
"Christ, man what was that for!" AJ spun around to face Nick, his heart in his mouth.
"I dunno…ummm… gotcha!" Nick laughed evilly, his pinkie in his mouth in a somewhat demented impersonation of Dr. Evil (Austin Powers!).
"Yup, well thanks," AJ didn’t laugh, and turned around to watch Leesa again.
"Hey, wassup, man?" Nick asked, still laughing.
"Nothing, kay? I just wanna listen to Leesa," was all he would say.
Leesa began to rehearse her dance steps to her first single, "Midnite".
Her long brown hair flowed over her pale shoulders, and her green eyes shone as she mouthed the lyrics.
Midnite walks on the beach were always so lonely
Contemplating love was never out my mind
Now, though, it takes a new meaning, oh so slowly
Because of all the love in your soul that I find.
My prince Charming, riding up on a silver horse
You swept me off my feet and now the same I’ll never be
My inspiration for life - because of you I’ve got the source
The bright red love not often found is something I’ve now seen.
Midnite crush describes the way I feel, I’ve never felt love so real
But your neo-nazi ideology makes me feel like I’m falling,
the fortune cookies of our love are calling
I wanna know your way when it comes to love
I’ve never felt this before, do you feel it too?
Your love is everything to me - let me in
Break your heart? Baby I promise never to…
The flick of her head, her left hand poised at an odd angle, AJ took in her movements and was completely oblivious to the rest of the world. Her white top and sweat pants looked great, and he wanted more than anything to join her out on stage. He knew that that was impossible, so he hatched another plan in his mind.
"Guys? What would you say if I asked Leesa to be a backdancer for the show?" AJ asked the rest of the group.
"I dunno Bone. I mean, she has her own show. I spose, maybe for a couple of songs, sure. Why not?" Kevin said, speaking collectively for the others. They nodded their agreement.
"Cool. Kay, so I’ll ask her now, she’s finished rehearsing," AJ finished, walking over to Leesa where she stood chatting to her backdancers.
"AJ! Did you like it?" she asked, wrapping him in a hug.
"Ewww! Sweatiness!" AJ teased as he hugged her back.
"Leave me alone! It’s hot out there!"
"You think I don’t know!" he laughed as they broke away from each other.
"Anyways, I have a preposition for you…"
"Oh really? Well, tell me," she stated matter-of-factly.
"I was just wondering if you wanted to be a backdancer for us," he asked, hoping like nothing else that she would say yes.
"Oh, that’s so sweet… I dunno, AJ. I mean, I have my own show," she told him somewhat sadly.
"Oh, it’s ok," he answered, disappointed.
"Hey, look you. I didn’t say no yet!" she turned him around to face her. "Maybe not the whole show? How’s about just a couple of songs?"
"That’s fine," he said happily. "look, I gotta go warm-up. I’ll see you in rehearsal then?"
"Cool. See ya then."
