Chaper Nine- Curly Spice

Mercedes decided to take a long soothing bubble bath. When she was done, she put on a
tank tp and her pajama pants. She pulled her hair into a high ponytail, before heading out
to the living room.

She saw that it was 2:32 in the afternoon. She immediatly switched the tv on to channel
4, to watch the rest of General Hospital. She hadn�t been watching it as much lately, ever
since Lucky had been brainwashed. It was a boring storyline that they had been dragging
out for over a year now.

Mercedes layed down on the couch, resting her head on the armrest. She sighed
contently.

After they had showen scenes for the next day�s episode, is when Justin and Wade came
up.

�Merce, we�re ordering a pizza,� Wade said, grabbing the cordless phone. �Whatcha
want on it?�

�Pepperoni!� Mercedes caller out, her eyes not leaving the tv screen, as she flipped
through channels.

�And?�

�Wade, how long have you knowen me?�

�Right, just pepperoni,� Wade said, as he started dialing Dominos.

Justin went and sat out in the living room with Mercedes.

�So Sparky, Wade says you wanna get into the ABC,� Justin said trying to make
conversation.

Mercedes looked over at where he sat, then back at the tv. �Yeah.�

�That�s cool.�

�What�s you name?� Mercedes asked, looking back at him.

�Excuse me?� Justin asked surprised.

�I know you�re from *N SYNC, but didn�t you use to have curly hair or something?�

Justin subconciously ran a hand over his army hiarcut. �Yeah, I got rid of them.�

�You know, you �boy bands� ned to stop changing you haircuts so much, cause that�s the
only way I can tell you apart.�

��Boy band�?� Justin asked annoyed.

Ignoring him, Mercedes continued. �My friends and I use to call you �Curly Spice�. Then
there also use to be �Dread Spice�, then there�s �Goatee Spice�-�

�Which one is that?� Justin interrupted. �All the guys have had goatees at one time or
another.�

�The one with the really skinny goatee lines.�

Justin started laughing.

�What�s so funny?� Mercedes asked confused, as Wade came in the room and took a
seat.

�That�s AJ, from the Backsteet Boys!� Justin said, as Wade joined him in laughing.

�Oops,� Mercedes said, watching as they couldn�t stop laughing.

�Mercedes, you gotta start getting out of the dance studio more often!� Wade said as
Mercedes glarred at him.

�Ok, I don�t have to take this anymore!� Mercedes said, getting up and going to her
room.

�Mercy, come back here,� Wade called after her. �We�re sorry. Come on, the pizza is
going to be here soon!�
