| Emily! Wake up honey!" My mother, Renee screamed up the stairs. I got up out of bed and threw on a pair of flares and my favorite lavender tanktop. I then ran down the stairs to the kitchen. "You look happier than usual." My father commented as I seated myself down at the table. "Why wouldn�t I be? WE ARE GOING TO ATLANTA AND STAYING IN THE MARRIOT MARQUIS! The same hotel where Fire And Ice stays when they are in the city!" I said practically knocking over my bowl of cereal. "Honey, the chances of even running into them are slim to none..." My mom said as she sighed sitting down at the table. "MOM, THEY ARE GOING TO BE THERE! I JUST KNOW IT! And I�m going to get there autograph and everyone at school is going to be so jealous. You know I heard a rumor that they even know Hanson and N Sync � HOW COOL IS THAT?!!!! I love Hanson AND N Sync. Amaya and I both love purple. Jacki and I both love New York! Chlo� and I both agree that Tay is a hottie! See it�s just gonna happen. I know it! I can feel it!" "You are such a dork, Em!" My older sister Melissa shouted. "OH SHUTTUP! YOU�RE JUST JEALOUS BECAUSE ZAC HANSON IS DATING JACKI AND YOU KNOW IT!" I screamed. "Whatever! When we briefly talked to her on her way backstage and you asked...just because she blushed and didn�t answer doesn�t make it a �yes!� And neither does the �no comment� crap on the site! Plus if that was true than don�t you think she would have used it to her advantadge?" "Nuh-uh! It�s just like they said on their profile: �Even if you have connections to Hanson or 'N Sync or whoever you shouldn't use them to become successful because true bands stick together and work hard to make it, and that's what they are going to do!�" "Girls! Stop it! We haven�t even gotten to the airport and already you�re bickering!" Melissa stuck her tongue out at me and I stuck mine back out at her. As we were loading into the car Melissa whispered, "We�ll just see who meets Fire And Ice. Plus I bet Tay and Chlo� boink eachother." My mouth dropped open and I whispered back, "Well if they do I hope that they get their condoms from Jacki AND Zac!" *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* The airplane ride was so boring! The food was disgusting and my sister Melissa fell asleep and she snores so loud! It was all good though when the plane touched ground in Atl! I totally flipped as I got off the plane and walked out of it and into Hartsfield Airport. Hartsfield � how pretty. We picked up our bags in baggage claim. (My mom always packs like she�s moving, not visiting.) After that we walked towards the front where our limo was there to pick us up. My dad works for a record company, and was technically in Atlanta for business � BUT NO MATTER! Fire And Ice means business, and I mean business when it comes to meeting them. While I have the chance though let me introduce myself. My name is Emily Cox, and my favorite groups are Hanson and Fire And Ice. Although the Beatles are cool too. I don�t have a favorite Fire And Ice member, but my favorite Hanson is Tay. I have brown hair like all the Fire And Ice chicks and that is why I love them so much. I hate all these blond female performers! Anyhow when we finally arrived at the Marriott Marquis I was in absolute awe. I couldn�t believe I was in the same hotel as Fire And Ice. I knew they were there! I just knew it. There site had said they were going to see a concert and it was over the weekend and they usually stay at the Marquis for stuff like that. The first thing I did was march over to the front desk and told them I was looking for my friends. I gave them all the names and they said that they had a J. Earnhardt checking in later. I got really excited and said that I would be back. I went up to my room where the bell boy and my dad had deposited my bags. My sister Melissa wasn't in and I figured she had probably gone to explore the hotel. I looked for a phone book and finally found one in one the desk drawers. I pulled it and tried to search for Fire And Ice but I couldn't find any of them because I couldn't remember their parents' names and I didn't feel like going online at the moment. I sighed and kicked off my shoes. Then I went and laid out on my bed the one closest to the window so I could look out over the city. I switched on the tv and finally after flipping through the channels for forever I decided to simply stay and watch a rerun of "Full House." I wonder what Fire And Ice is doing. That was my last thought before I fell asleep. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* "WE HAVE ARRIVED!" Jacki said triumphantly as she stepped out the limo that had pulled up the front entrance of the Marriott Marquis. "Is this sweet or what?" Amaya leaped out the car behind them and said, "Oh my beautiful hotel! How I've missed you!" "Really, I can't understand how anyone stays at any other hotel in the city." Jacki replied. Chlo� sleepily climbed out of the backseat of the limo and yawned, "Where's our room?" Amaya's dad then climbed out along with their friends Jenae and Jenni. He interrupted, "Our room is on the very top floor. We have two suites. One for you three, Juanita and me to share, and the other for Jenae, Jenni, Kiki, Heather, and KT. The limo driver handed the bellboy their bags and then started talking to Amaya's dad. The girls then ran inside the building dancing around happily. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Second Page E-mail Author Back To Something In Red |
