chapter 6*

�Okay close your eyes.� Joey said.

�What?� Kimberly said.

�Please!�

�Okay.� She said closing her eyes.

He drove for another few minutes then stopped.

�Hold on.� He said getting out of the car and walking over to her side of the car.

He opened the door for her and helped her out.

�Keep your eyes closed.� Said Joey.

�Okay.�

They walked a few feet then stopped.

�Alright, open them.�

Kimberly opened her eyes at the unexpected site in front of her.

You were able to see the city from where they were and Joey had a whole candlelight picnic set up.

�Aw! How beautiful!�

�I hope you like it, let�s sit down.� He said.

They sat down on the blanket he had put down.

�What�d you make?� Kimberly asked.

�I made lasagna.�

�Ooo�yummy.�

He laughed.

They ate the lasagna and as they were eating Joey decided to make conversation.

�Kimberly?� he said.

�Yeah.�

�I�m just going to get to the point, so�are you and Justin going out?�

She looked up at him.

�No. Why did you think that?�

�I don�t know, the way you two act, I guess.�

�Joey, don�t worry. I�m not going out with Justin.�

He took a breath of relief.

�Joey, I know you�ve liked me ever since you started to flirt with me the first time you met me.�

�Yeah.�

2 hours had passed.

They were into some talking as they lost track of time.

�OMG! It�s already 11:30pm.� Kimberly said.

�You�re kidding.�

�We better go.�

�Okay.�

They soon put everything in the car and left.

Danielle walked into the house.

She walked over to the telephone to check the messages. There were none. She was about to go upstairs when the phone rang.

�Hello?� she said answering the phone.

�Hi Danielle.� JC said.

�Hey JC.� She said as she walked up the stairs.

�What are you doing?�

�Nothing, just got home and going upstairs�I�ll probably clean the mess you left.�

�You still haven�t cleaned it?�

�No. I haven�t had time.�

�You want me to come help you?�

�No, that�s okay I can do it.�

�Alright.�

�Oh yeah and um, how do you take that marker off the mirror?�

�Oh just use the Windex or soap and water, I guess.�

�Okay, thank you.�

�No problem.�

She walked into her room.

�My god, how many roses did you put in here?�

�Oh all the rose pedals are about at least 15 to 20 dozen roses in there.�

�OMG JC! You�re kidding.�

�Nope, have any of them died yet?�

�Not really, some of the rose pedals all over the floor and bed are a little dry. Oh god you put some in the bathroom too. I forgot.�

�Are you sure you don�t want any help?�

�That�s okay.�

�Is Kimberly there?�

�No, she went with Joey.�

�Oh, so your there all alone?�

�Yes, and I�m fine.�

�Okay.�

�Well I better go.�

�Okay talk to you later.� He said.

�Alright, bye.� She said hanging up the phone.

She was in her room picking things up. All of a sudden she heard a voice.

�You love him don�t you?�

�What? Who was that?�

�You love him. I know it.�

�What the fuck is that?�

�You�ll always be mine!�

�What? I�ll always be who�s?� she asked.

The voice stopped and went away.

�God, that was weird.� She told herself.

She continued to finish cleaning her room. Danielle picked up all the rose pedals everywhere, but kept all the roses in the vases.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Kimberly walked into the house at midnight. She put all of her stuff down and went to find Danielle.

�Danielle?!�

�Down here in the basement.� Danielle shouted.

Kimberly walked downstairs and found Danielle sitting on the leather chair to their built in office desk. She was on the computer.

�Hey D. What are you doing?�

�Nothing much, just checking my email.�

�Oh.�

�Did you have fun with Joey?�

�Yeah, it was nice. He surprised me and we had this candlelight picnic. It was so romantic.�

�What�d he say?�

�He was just telling me that he liked me, I already knew. He asked if I was going out with Justin, I told him no. But he did seem relieved.�

Danielle giggled.

�So what�s up with you and Lance and you and JC?� Kimberly asked.

�I don�t know. I�m just as confused as you are.�

�Yeah really.�

�Anyway, well I�m still trying to get over the fact that JC got me over 200 roses. It was so sweet, and Lance and I talked a lot. I told him it was going to be hard to choose because I like them both and that it�s hard to choose between two great guys, and that I don�t want to hurt anyone.�

�What�d he say?�

�He understood. And it was nice to spend some time with him.�

�That�s cool.�

�Why�d you get home so late?�

�We lost track of time. We were so into talking�I found out Joey�s really a cool person.�

�Yeah, he probably is.�

�He is.�

�Well we better go to bed, it�s late.� Said Danielle getting up.

�Alright.�

Danielle turned off the computer and the two went to their rooms and went to bed.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

(Danielle�s dream)

�Alright guys lets go.� Wade Robson their choreographer said.

�1�2�3�4�5�6�7�

*Nsync was dancing to the beat of �It�s Gonna Be Me.� As Joey was dancing he was kind of slow.

�Speed up a little Joe.� Wade said.

Wade was watching Joey closely and as he was dancing, out of nowhere he tripped. Like someone or something tripped him. Wade saw the whole thing and became suspicious.

�Come on Joey, stop messing up.� Justin said.

�It wasn�t�never mind sorry.�

�Okay guys take a break.� Wade said.

�Joey come here.�

Joey walked over to him.

�Are you okay? I saw that� what happened? How?�

�I don�t know, it�s like someone tripped me.�

�That�s weird. I don�t know but be careful.�

�Alright, thanks Wade.� Joey said walking off the stage and grabbing his water.
