The producer let everybody leave at 3:00PM because it was Stephanie's birthday. Stephanie went back to her trailer and called AJ.
"Hello?" "AJ?" "Yeah?" "It's Stephanie." "Hey." "What's the matter?" "Nothing." "Oh, ok. You told me to call you." "Yeah. I want to take you to dinner tonight for your birthday. Are you up for it?" "AJ, You don't have to." "I want to." "Ok. Sure, I'm up for it." "Are you sure? You don't sound like it." "Yeah. I'm just worried about you. You don't sound like nothing is the matter." "I'm just tired." "Alright." "Dress fancy and I'll pick you up around 7." "Ok. I gotta go." "Alright. Bye." "Bye."
Stephanie hung up the phone and went over to Katelyn's trailer.
"Steph, What's the matter? You look like you saw a ghost." Katelyn said once she saw Stephanie. "I'm so worried." "Why?" "Because I just talked to AJ and he didn't sound right." "Oh." "I want to see him because I have this feeling that something is wrong but I don't know where him and the guys are staying." "I do. Do you want me to take you there?" "Would you?" "Yeah. Come on."

Brian came into AJ's room.
"Hey, Bri." "AJ, What's the matter?" "I'm kind-of nervous of what she's going to say and everything." "Why?" "Cause she only turned 19. She's still young." "She loves you, AJ. So don't worry about it."
They were interrupted by a knock at the door. Brian went over to the door and opened it.
"Hey. What are you doing here?" Brian asked Stephanie.
She pushed him out of the way and walked over and sat down next to AJ.
"Thanks for saying hello." Brian said as he closed the door.
He walked over and picked up Stephanie's puppy and sat down on the other bed.
"Honey, What are you doing here?" AJ asked. "I was worried about you. You didn't sound right on the phone."
AJ gave Stephanie a hug and looked at Brian and Brian mouthed 'See'.
"I'm alright. I told you I was just tired, that's all." "Are you sure?" "Yes. I'm sure." "Somebody's got an attitude." "Well, I'm alright. You don't have to worry." "I guess I'm sorry. I gotta go."
She got up and started walking away.
"Steph, wait." AJ said. "I'll catch ya later." Stephanie said before walking out the door. She got in the car when she got outside and Katelyn drove away.
"I don't think that was the right thing." Brian said. "Your telling me. I've got to call her."
AJ picked up the phone and dialed Stephanie's number.
"Hello?" "Steph?" "Yeah?" "I'm sorry. I didn't mean that." "AJ. I'm your girlfriend and I was worried about you and you snap at me because of it. I'm kind-of hurt." "I'm sorry. I really am." "Are you going to do this to me again?" "No." "Promise?" "Promise." "Ok. I accept your apology." "We're still on for tonight, right?" "Yeah." "Alright." "I love you." "I love you, too."
They hung up and Stephanie went to go get ready.
