"What is it?" asked Erica, a tall, average girl wearing a pair of cut-off jeans and a blue tank. Her hair was blondish/brown and went passed her shoulders.

"Here look at this, you got an I.M", said Sarah, pointing at the icon. Sarah opened it and read aloud, " I am a 24/m/UK wanting to chat with you, are you a chattable person?"

Sarah wrote back "Yep. I am a 20/f/IN"

'Is that India?', asked Oasisfan1. "No," replied Sarah, " Indiana, USA."

" So, Crazy4Ewan99, what is so 'crazy' about you?" asked Oasisfan1.

"My personality. What about you, Oasisfan1?" typed Erica.

Erica and Oasisfan1 typed forever untill Erica look up at the clock almost at 12:00.

"Its getting late over here, do you want to be put on my buddy list so we can talk tomorrow?" asked Erica.

"Sure, I will put you on mine too," replied Oasisfan1. Oasisfan1 and Crazy4Ewan started a friendship.

They would always talk to each other hours at a time. She would always log off saying, "see you later Oasis".
Over the next few months, Erica's relationship with Oasis came closer and closer to really seeing the person.
One day as Erica was typing away, Oasis asked, "Do you want to meet up?". Erica looked at the word 'meet' and immediately turned off the computer at sat staring at the black screen. As soon as she did that, Sarah walked into the room.

"What's wrong?" asked Sarah. "Oasisfan1 said that we should me and I got cold feet and turned the computer off."

"What??? How could you be so stupid!! He was just asking you a question and you didn't even bothered to say something. You just freaked out like you always do!!" exclaimed Sarah.

"Well, I didn't know what to do, and besides I had to get off because I have to baby-sit tonight for the Sweigharts." said Erica.

"OK. DO you mind if I get on for a while and check some stuff??" asked Sarah. "Sure, go ahead.", replied Erica.

When Sarah heard Erica's car pull away from the driveway, she I.M.ed Oasisfan1 and asked "What did you say?" Oasisfan repeated, " Would you like to meet me??' Then Sarah got an idea and a huge grin rose up from her cheeks.

"Well..," Sarah began, " you know that your birthday is in 3 months and you know I always forget to get you something, but this time I didn't. I got you a ticket to London, England so you can meet Oasisfan1 for 3 days."
Erica went silent. She wasn't breathing, just staring at the plane ticket that Sarah layed out in front of her on the coffee table. "What in the hell were you thinking?' shouted Erica.

"Erica, don't get all mad at me. You should be thanking me. Your plane leaves tomorrow at 6:00. So if I were you I would be getting my butt upstairs and start packing so I wouldn't forget." said Sarah. Erica knew this is a once-in-a-lifetime situation where someone exotic asks you to meet them. Erica didn't know what to say. She turned around and went upstairs to pack her things. And went to bed with a thousand questions in her head.

Erica was awoken by the sound of her alarm clock screeching "5:00, 5:00, out of bed!!" Erica turned it off and went to the bathroom and got ready for her flight. Sarah was allready waiting downstairs with the car running waiting to get going. So, Sarah and Erica were off to the Indianapolis International Airport to depart to England. When she got to her terminal, Erica smiled and gave Sarah a hug. Sarah came back with a huge hug, fighting back tears. Erica waved good-bye and boarded her plane. Erica slept through the 10 hour trip and was awaken by the attendant " Welcome to London, England. Temperature: 78 degrees."

The man was stunned to see her so beautiful: Her brown/blonde hair pulled up in a ponytail and her sparkling green eyes flashing at him. He loved the way she smiled and knew she was Crazy4Ewan. She went up to him and they said their Hellos and How are yous and went off to the baggage claim, not taking their eyes off each other.

He grabed her bag and went to the parking garage where a yellow mustand was waiting for them. He drove with such grace she had the time of her life.

As they came upon a street he told her look up the hill. As they cleared the hill, Erica's jaw fell in her lap.
She saw a beautiful white, victorian mansion with a small pond in front of it surrounded with wildflowers. A swinset sat off to the side of the house and the porch was decorated like Martha Steward lived there.
As she got out of the car, she ran up the stairs and opened the door to find the staircase right in front of her.
She went to her left to find a beautiful dining room with white candles and fresh wildflowers in a vase on top a wooden table. Pictures of little girls decorated the canary yellow walls. She went into the kitchen and smelled fresh pie from a candle lit on the counter. The walls were coverd with fall colors and golden leaves mounted. She looked at the refrigerator and the young man asked her if she was hungry, but she didn't respond to his question.

She left the kitchen to a large study covered with shelves of books of many authors as Herman Melville, Eggar Allen Poe, and William Shakespeare. She headed up the back stairs and went to look at the rooms. She spotted a room saying " Wee-One" and she opened it. She smell of lavender fufilled her sences as she oped the door. The purple, pink, and yellow colors matched beautifully to her butterfly room. As she headed out the door, another rom caught her eye, with the name "Ester Rose" upon the door.

She opened the door to Ester's room to find pink colors greeting her. Her crib was covered wtih silk and lace. Her pink pillows matched her curtins leading out to the backyard with a pool and slide. As she left the room, she went down the hall a saw a little trophy room. She scaned throught the awards and found a name that made her stop breathing.

"First Prize: Ewan McGregor" came from Erica's mouth. Her face went white and blank. She turned around and went to her room. She could not believe that she was staying in the house of her favorite actor: Ewan McGregor. She placed her suitcase on her oriental bed covered in red and black. The Walls were covered in Japenese writing like someone was telling a story about their life.

She unpacked her cd player and started up her music. She head the song "Come What May". She decided to sing along Nicole Kidman's part. At that moment, Ewan was down the hall.

He heard her singing and decided to listen. He started to sing along with here and joined her in her dancing. She couldn't hear or see what was going on. She swayed with the music imagining her loved one dancing with her. When he song was over, she turned aroudn to find Ewan still dancing. To her suprise she screamed followed by Ewan screaming.

"Oh", said Erica. Her face was locked on Ewan. As Ewan turned away he said " I'm very sorry. I shouldn've done that. If you are hungry, just come down and I'll make you something."

"Wait." replyied Erica. " I shouldn've overreacted like that .Let's start all over again. I am Erica." Erica had her hand out waiting for a greeting. "I'm Ewan." Ewan reached out and met her hand and shook hands." I have allready guessed that you are Ewan" said Erica.

"Why is that?" asked Ewan. "When I was looking through rooms, I saw a trophy room and I saw an award with your name on it. Anyways lets go eat, I am starving!" said Erica.

After eating a great meal, they decided on a movie. Since they loved Jimmy Stewart, they rented American Tale: Fivel Goes West. They laughed and laughted as the nigh progressed. Soon it was 12:00 and Erica realized she needed some rest. Her and Ewan walked up to her room and just before she went in, Ewan grabbed her hand and kissed it gently and wished her good night. Erica closed her door and got in her pajamas and went to bed with a smile on her face.

"Well," started Ewan " I was wondering, since I don't know you much, maybe we can do something today"
"Do-Do you know where a go-cart racing track is?" Erica said with a piece of toast in her mouth. " Yeah. Actually there is one about 20 miles away. Wanna go?" said Ewan

"Oh yeah" said Erica. "Ok", started Ewan, " Its now 9:30 so you got some time to get ready. Oh before we go out I am going to show you something that you would really like". "OK. just give me about 30 mins and I will be down there", said Erica. "Geez, I took me bloody all day to manage my hair when it was that long", said Ewan as he closed her door so she could get ready.

"French" said Erica finishing up Ewan's sentence. "Yeah, how did you know?" asked Ewan. "Oh, let me just say that I am a huge fan of you." said Erica.

"I thought you were. Hey come here, I want to show you something." Ewan motioned her to a flight of stairs leading down into what looked like a basement. When Erica got to the last step, she gasped in suprise.
The room was exactally what she pictured her "fun" room to be like when she got a good job. There was a billard table and a bar, a huge sofa with a flat screen television with the works. She was movie posters of Moulin Rouge, Eye of the Beholder, Trainspotting, The Pillow Book , Shallow Grave , Star Wars 1&2 and Nora.

"Wow, you sure do have a huge collection down here, Ewan" said Erica "Well thank you, Oh speaking of movies, what is your favorite movies?" asked Ewan. "Well," began Erica. " I usually liked Eye of the Beholder, A Life Less Ordinary, Moulin Rouge, Shallow Grave, Blue Juice, Trainspotting and Velvet G---"

"Goldmine", said Ewan finishing up Erica's sentence. "Yeah!" said Erica. "But there was one movie that i wanted to see and replace the girl tho co-stars with you". "Oh, and what movie would that be??" asked Ewan.
"The Pillow Book", said Erica. "Oh, I wouldn�t have guessed", said Ewan with a grin. "Oh we better be going before we miss what we are doing". Ewan took Erica's hand and lead her up the stairs to the Mustang she and Ewan both loved.

After a wind-blowing ride they got to the race track. Ewan ran to get the best go-cart and Erica did the same. They raced for an hour, with Erica beating Ewan all the way. Ewan was kind of upset but he knew that she was better at than than he was. LOL. They got in the car and went to a water park close by. Erica remembered that she didn't bring her bathing suit with her. Ewan said to her " You forgot you bathing suit huh? Not to worry. When you were in the bathroom I got one from you suitcase and i took it with me." Erica laughed and went to the locker room. About 2 minutes later she stepped out wearing her yellow and pink flower bikini and went to the pool. Ewan came out with Navy blue trunks on that matched his skin tone perfectly. He went over to her and went to push her in. To his surprise Erica was holding Ewan's hand and he went in with her. They surfaced the water laughing and carrying on. For the rest of the day they just sat out and tanned, and went down slides and dove off diving boards. Around 6 they decided to go home. "Hey do you want to order out or do you want me to cook?" asked Ewan.

"Why don't you cook. I wanna see what else you can make besides steak and potatoes" said Erica. Ewan laughed as he placed his eyes back on the road. .

When Erica got out of the shower she could smell fresh cucumbers and peppers being roasted in butter. She went downstairs in her red plad short and white t-shirt. The fraguances from the kitchen fullfilled her sences. "That smells great", said Erica "what are you making?"

"Some spaggetti with red and green peppers and a tossed salad" replied Ewan. "Really?? Spagetti is my favorite food!" exclaimed Erica. "Mine too. Geez , we have so much in common" said Ewan.

After dinner, Erica could still taste the spagetti in her mouth and the mouth-watering salad that Ewan made for her. She sat in front of the T.V. with Ewan watching another great classsic of Jimmy Stewart.

After watching 3 movies, it was turning 2 o'clock in the morning. Ewan looked over at Erica fast asleep on the other side of the coutch. He got up and carried her up to her bed and placed her in. Just before he left, he gave her a kiss on the cheek and whispered in her ear " Goodnight". He left the door open a crack after he left.

The next morning, Erica woke up to find Ewan, again, sitting at the bottom of her bed. " How long have you been there?" asked Erica. "Oh, for about an hour" replied Ewan. Erica gave him a wierd look and said "Why were you waiting for so long?" Ewan finally said "I like to watch you sleep. Since today is your last day---"
"Oh, no I forgot all about my flight!. shouted Erica, "What time is my flight?"

"Not to worry. Your flight isn't untill 7:00 am. I'll take you around 6:30.".said Ewan. "Oh what time is it?" asked Erica. "Its about 5:45", said Ewan

"Only, 1 hour and 55 minutes till I leave" said Erica. As soon as she said those words, she saw a tear run down Ewan's green eye.

"Why are you crying?" asked Erica.

" I have never had a great fan like you before have so much in common with me. The bad thing about that is that she was only here 3 days and I didn't get to know her good enough". Explained Ewan.

Erica took Ewan and leaned forward to cradle him while he weaped softly." I don't want you to go. I'll miss you too much. How will I stay in touch?" asked Ewan.

"I'll leave my addresss and phone number for you, so we can stay in touch." said Erica. "Now come on, your are soaking up you sheets along with my shirt".

Ewan giggled and raised his head. He then lunged at her to give her the most sweetest kiss she ever had in her life. She returned his kiss. They released and stared at each other.

"I wished that could lasted forever", Erica said finally. "Me too" said Ewan. He lunged again but Erica turned her head. "Sorry. I just don't want to loose a good friend. You are always in my heart and in my mind everyday. THere is no way I could forget you. You have a wife and 2 beautiful daughters . Don't ruin that over me. Just do me a favor" said Erica.

"Anything", said Ewan. "When ever you win an award, be sure to mention me." said Erica. Ewan chuckled and gave her a hug and left the room for her to get ready and packed.

Erica came down the stairs with her backpack on her back, her laptop in her left hand and a piece of paper in the right. "What is that?" asked Ewan. "Its my address and my phone number so we can stay in touch", said Erica. Ewan ran back in to the dinning room and came back with a box and a piece of paper on the top. "Don't open it now, wait till you are on the plane." said Ewan. "Okay" said Erica. "Oh and I promise I will mention you when I win an award for anything". said Ewan.

They arrived at the airport with 30 minutes to spare. They checked her baggage in and went to the terminal. They waited with their hands held together. They sat there looking at each other and laughing. The time came for Erica to go. Ewan started to tear up and Erica held him and kept him comferted. She unlocked her arms from him and kissed him on the cheek. and said "Remember, what you promised me" He nodded and she went to the line with tears in her eyes.

Just before she got on, she looked back at Ewan blowing a kiss to her. She caught it and placed it in her pocket. He smiled and waved good-bye. Erica turned around and went onto her plane. She sat there waiting for the plane to take off and she remembered the gift Ewan gave to her. She grabbed it and opened it up to find an autographed video of American Tale: Fifel Goes West. The autograph said " I had the best time of my life. Hope to have it again" and it was signed " Love, Ewan" She also found an autographed picture of him. She started to cry and she placed the picture in her chest. SHe remebered the piece of paper on the wrappier and she opened to find that it was his phone number and his address. She looked out her window as the plane's wheels took off from the ground. THen began her 10 hour nap.

She landed in Indianapolis and saw Sarah waiting for her at the terminal. She ran to her a gave her a hug. "So, who was he??" asked Sarah anxously. " I will tell you in the car" replied Erica.

Months past and Ewan and Erica talked 3 times a week. She found out that he was nominated for Best Actor on the 2002 MTV Movie Awards. Erica was so excited and Ewan told her it was going to broadcast on Aug 1st. Erica was going to celebrate her 21st birthday on Aug 1st! And he said that he had a suprise for her.

The day came and Erica sat on the couch waiting anxiously for the winner of Best Actor. After TLC represnted them, they said "And the winner is... Ewan McGregor for Moulin Rouge!". Erica jumped to her feet and screamed at the top of her lungs. She hugged Sarah, nearly choking her to death, and looked back at the t.v. screen. He got up to the podeum and said his speech "OH WOW!!, I thought this would never happen. Um... I would like to thank Baz Lurhman and the cast and crew of Moulin Rouge. I would like to thank my parents and fans. Also to a very special person. Her 21st b-day is today and I would like to say Happy Birthday Erica. I miss you and part of this is for you. I love you girl. Thank you"

Erica felt tears run down her cheeks and she smiled. She felt overjoyed. and a little embarrassed but all in all she was proud of Ewan. She turned off the T.V. and went to bed. She flet a complete refreshing feeling come over her and went to bed again with a smile on her face.

When she woke the next morning, she found a vase full of Lilly-of -the-Valley flowers on her windowsill with a note saying. "I'm here". She smelled the flowers and proceeded down the stairs
