| "Are you lost?" The voice said to me. "No, just waiting for my friend." I said looking up. "Don't leave yet. I have to have someone to talk to while I'm avoiding the crazy people. By the way, I'm Justin." He said sitting next to me. "I'm Sara. Nice to meet you." I replied staring into the face of Justin Timberlake, "So aren't you supposed to be in there signing autographs and posing for endless pictures with screaming girls?" "I always sneak away like this, but I usually don't find a beautiful girl out here waiting around by herself." Justin chuckled, "So why aren't you in there with everyone else?" "No offense, but I'm not a huge fan of NSYNC and I don't feel much like being in a crowded room with all those people." I tried to explain nicely. "Yeah, I know what you mean...about the whole crowd thing." He agreed. We talked for nearly forty minutes when our conversation came to an awkward silence. "I know this may sound a little forward," He began, "but...can I have your phone number so I can call you sometime? It's a rare occasion that I meet a girl I can talk to and I'm attracted to."

He said scribbling on a scrap of paper and handing it to me, "If you need someone to talk to, about anything, call me. But uh, I gotta get back in there. It was very nice talking to you, bye." I watched him walk away and put my head back down again. "Maybe I could go on without Dhani." I thought. I waited a few more minutes when Marie walked out the still packed room. I got up and together we began walking to the parking lot. "It was sooo awesome! I got to meet all of the guys! Well I couldn't find Justin, but I met everyone else!" Marie giggled excitedly as she starting the engine of the car, "Who did you meet?" "I met Justin." I said staring blanking out the window into the dark night sky. "Wow!!! How was he? Was he cute? Was he nice?" She began bouncing up and down in her seat. "He was okay..." |
