Chapter 2


A Few Months ago.... 

", come on. Its fun."Complained, placing one of his hands on the banister and one on the wall then swinging back and 
forth over the stairs. He was looking down atwho was stood at the bottom of them, his arms crossed and a stubborn look on his face. 

"I hate them. You know I do." "You never know unless you try! This isn�t doing some - WOAH!!!"said as his hand slipped and 
he nearly went flying down the stairs. He re-balanced himself and stood safely in the top stair, trying to look as casual as possible. "Erm....Its 
not technical stuff! We'll have a laugh, honestly. I do it all the time. 

"Well that's you, isn't it." "If you're gonna be a bore, go back home. Why are you here anyway?"wondered out loud. Blue were at 
last on a break for a number of weeks, before kick starting a fresh new year. He was back home in London, his browny-blonde hair was all 
over the place for the first time in months, his clothes were old, his socks didn't match. But he didn't care. Today he just planned to laze 
around. Thenhad arrived.

It was ironic, they still weren't apart even when the band didn't have to work.too didn't look his best. He had a pair of old, faded jeans, 
a t-shirt that didn't have a designer logo on it and was in his socks, asalways make people take their shoes off.. 

"Because...." He said, hesitating. He looked away. "I kinda missed you, that�s all.." "Aww! That�s the nicest thing you've ever said to me. 
Come one up and if you don't like it we can come downstairs. But I wanna go online anyway, please? I'll sing." He threatened "Oh we cant 
be having that."said, running up the stairs. "Thank you."said heading towards his room. 

It felt like an eternity since he'd been in it, but he was glad things were left just as they had always been, The same posters were still on his 
walls, bands he liked as a teenager and cartoon characters which you were never too old to love. His bed was still in the same place, his 
guitars were still resting in the same places and all of his platinum disks still hung proudly on the wall. 

sat down on the floor, his back resting against's bed and looked around the room. It was small, but more comfortable and 
homely than any massive and posh hotel room they'd ever stayed in.sat down next to him, his lap top resting on his knee. he'd 
already turned it on and it was loading up.couldn't hide his interest and watched the screen as it became more and more alive. 
was always on this, butwas stuck in the 20th century still and couldn't stand them. Until today. 

"So we're what, running the web?"asked. "Surfing the web, idiot!"stated in a matter-of-fact tone with a smile. His finger was 
guiding the pointer around the screen quickly, liked he'd done it all before. He was tellingwhat to do to connect, butdidn't 
understand a word of it. 

"What are you boys Upto?" Asked, coming into his room with some drinks for them. She placed them on the table near to them. 
She couldn't help but smile when she saw her son like this. It was like the old days, havinghome with one of his many friends here, 
and re-living the old days was the best.

This was the best feeling in the world, in her eyes she didn't see 2 pop stars, both being heart throbs. She just saw her son, who was just a 
regular boy, with his friend. They looked up at her with innocent faces. "Nothing!" they said at the same time. "I should hope so too!" 
She said and they all laughed.thanked her for the drinks. "Anything you want, just ask." She told him before leaving. He was always 
spoiled when he came back home, his mum missed him so much that she treasured the time when he was back home. 

"Right, we're on."told him, andlooked at the screen curiously. "I often go into this chat room. I hope my friend is on." 
"Friend?" Askedwith a raised eyebrow, watching as MSN loaded up.

"Yeah, she's from Eltham and 22. I've never asked for her real name, but she's cool. She doesn't talk to me because i'm in blue, you know 
what I mean? She doesn't know who I am, we can talk about allsorts." 

"This is pretty deep, huh?" Asked. "I guess. Its just a relief to find someone - "started "Who isn't in it for the fame. I know." 
finished in an understanding voice. "Wonder if she's got a mate for me!"joked, not knowing how ironic this statement was to 
become. "Not that i'm getting into this computer lark!"
