| I stood at the barre trying my best to concentrate on stretching. It wasn�t working, and my dance instructor was totally noticing. �Natalie!� she yelled. I stiffened, knowing some unpleasantness was on its way. �Yes Madame?� I replied. �Are your legs broken, my dear?� she asked. �No,� I answered. �Then don�t dance like it!� she said coolly. I shook my head and tried to concentrate. Taylor wasn�t going to be out in the crowd like he always was and knowing that drove me nuts. You should be used to this by now I tried to tell myself. And it was true, I really should be. He didn�t want to be in Chicago, I knew that much. And he was going to be home soon. I just hoped he missed me as much as I missed him. ******************** �Isaac, if we change the blue to green, it�ll look stupid next the red. We are NOT having a Christmas themed album cover!� Zac nearly shouted at his brother. �Then get rid of the red,� Isaac said simply. �No!� Taylor chimed in. �No one else had a problem with the red and blue. And besides, with the green, we�d have to do all new shading on the font to make it match.� �Well I never liked the font in the first place,� Zac said. �See,� Isaac said, glaring at Taylor. The font was Taylor�s choice. �Jesus Christ!� Taylor shouted. �I cannot believe I�m missing Natalie�s performance to listen to you two bitch! No one gives a shit what the cover looks like. All we NEED to do is switch my name, and that�s it! Anything else you two want to do is up to you,� he finished, standing up from the table. Taylor walked out the door only to be caught by his father. �Where are you going, Taylor?� his father asked. �Tweedle-Dee and Tweedle-Dum in there are driving me psycho. Let them change whatever they want to. Just make sure my name�s spelled right,� he told his dad. He went to take another step forward before his dad grabbed his arm. �One minute,� his dad said. �What?� Taylor asked, almost whining. �Island called�apparently some band�Train I think it was, cancelled their show at the House of Blues at the end of this week. We need a venue to tape some more footage for the next video, so�� �So what?� Taylor asked in true ditz fashion. �Island took the opening. Your stuff�s on its way here and we�ll be filming Friday.� �Nice,� Taylor said completely sarcastically. �Nat�s gonna kill me.� |
