When Brian and Ellie finished posing, he turned back to look at Nick, "I wonder how Mary's doing.. she.. God!"
Ellie turned to him, "You're a churchboy, you ought to know that one should never use the Lords name in vain.. or something…" she giggled, "So what was so bad that you had to risk spending eternity in hell?"
He glared at her, "You wouldn't go to hell for that!" then he realized that she was joking, "Look!" he pointed over to the seat,
"Christ!" muttered Ellie.
"I can't believe.." he started.
Ellie looked over at Brian and whispered softly, "What.."
"You were as shocked as I was.. you know!"
"Only cause we all hate each other.. I was surprised is all.."
"He has a girlfriend, you 'know' that!"
"Well he 'did' drop Mary! I mean, c'mon, the poor girl 'is' in a position for a little bit of TLC!"
Brian raised his eyebrows, "I think 'AJ's the one who needs a bit of lovin right now," he gestured over to where AJ and Christine were still arguing, "She is 'mad'!"
"Gee.. they were right about redheads being like that…"
Brian glared at her, "Hey! I'm a redhead!"
"You dork! You dyed it!'
"So!"
"So!"
"So! Like you're a natural blonde!"
"I am!"
"Yeah, yeah!" he sang, quietly, "Blonde from a bottle, blonde from a bottle!"
"I'm blonde!'' she cried softly, "Geez.. how did we get so off topic.. uh.. 'anyway' , gotta go.. so I'll see ya later.." she walked over to where Howie and Kevin were sitting to ask Howie what he thought of what was going on with AJ, Mary, Jenna and Nick.
"Howie, we have to talk, c'mon."
"Can't you see I'm 'busy'?!" he snapped.
Ellie's eyes widened in surprise, "Uh.. okay.."
Howie and Kevin exchanged a look and then they sneered at Ellie until she rolled her eyes, and stormed off to find Chasity and Jenna.
The two were sitting in swirly chairs in the open makeup area, making themselves dizzy when Ellie stormed in, "I am so glad to have found y'all, Howie's being a dork."
Jenna stopped her chair, "Those people are super ticked at us, kept tryin' to get us to do more pictures, and get off their chairs, said the pictures were important, but we didn't listen, so they left us alone. Went to call the manager to get them to bawl us out.. sucks"
"M-kay?!"
"They think we'll get all with each other and stuff, good reports and articles for them.. ain't gonna happen." said Chasity to no one in particular, "Hate those jerks.. hated posing with Howie and Kevin. They suck. Alot."
"Y'all suck at talking.. actually.. we 'all' do, can't talk right.. damn Backstreet Boys screwin' up our good talkin'."
They laughed, "So, what can I do ya' for... do for you?"
"Just came 'round." replied Ellie, trying not to laugh while keeping her made-up accent.
"We was lookin' fer you an' 'M'."
"Emmy?" she rolled her eyes, her voice back to normal, "You'll find 'her' in Nick's lap?"
Jenna crinkled her nose, "Bull."
"Nope, fifteen minutes ago? I think she fell asleep, then he pulls her into his laps.. I mean.. eww! It's... Nick!"
Jenna laughed, you know.. out of all of them, I thought she'd fall for AJ."
"What?" asked Chasity, "They hate each other.. 'remember'?"
"Think about it.. if they ever got together.. imagine the passion.. the 'ooh eee ooh ah ah, ting tang, walla walla bing bang'." Jenna began singing the 'witch doctor' song and danced around.
Ellie rolled her eyes, "Quit it!"
"Anyway.." Jenna stopped and smiled, "Think about it, you 'know' she loves challenges.. It'd be like one of those stupid games to her! And she's got her chance now, too, I just caused a huge scorcher between AJ and his red-head... Now that Derek's screwing around, I wouldn't be surprised.."
Ellie grinned, and then looked at Jenna, "Thought 'you' liked AJ."
"Me?"
"I saw the way you two were!" cried Chasity dramatically, "the 'passion', the 'love'.." Ellie rolled her eyes again and Chasity laughed some more. "Honey, if you keep doing that, your eyes are going to get 'stuck' that way!"
They both turned to Jenna and saw that her face was crimson, "It was posing, for pictures."
"Dar'ling, you've been in this long enough to know y'all don't do those kinds of pictures! You just got too into it! You 'love' him!"
Jenna smacked her with a hairbrush, "Shut up!"
"You 'do'! I think he likes you too! I mean come on, he might have started bumping you on that table if Red hadn't got there in time."
"Shut up, he just got really into the shoot.."
Chasity smirked, "You're 'defending' him.. so it's true! You 'love' him!"
Jenna stuck out her tongue, "You suck!"
"So... how long we gonna be here?"
Ellie looked up, "It's been hours! They'll probably keep us here until the conference.. Oh fudgenuckers.. here comes Red."
Jenna shot up out of her seat as Christine strode over, "What do you want?"
