AJ was next to me and Nick was on his other side.
�So, tell me about these bad things people have said about you�and more importantly, are they true?� He laughed and began to talk about what I considered the fun times he had when he was drinking heavily and partying hard. I look at him and as square as he seems its hard to believe he overdosed. I happened to glance over and saw Nick looking at us keenly. Well damn, if I didn�t give him all the attention he pouted like the middle child. Good thing to know.

Nick was waiting around in my hotel as I went through my closet for a change of clothes. Of course I didn�t want to wear the same outfit. He laughed out loud as he held onto the pole,
�You planning on getting any use out of this thing?� I smiled and winked at him,
�Already have kid, already have.� His cute little eyes bugged out. It was unbelievable. Here is Mr. Popstar and he seems in shock of everything I say and do. Has this kid not lived the life he was destined to live by being a celebrity? What a shame. I grabbed a burgundy thin satin dress. The top was tight but the skirt was loose. I snatched up my gold heels and gold clutch purse,
�Let�s go kid.� My cell phone began to ring and I answered as we headed towards the door,
�Yeah?�
�Are you busy with all the beautiful people?� I looked over at Nick,
�Eh�just one. I guess.� It was Sarah.
�Have you seen Nick?�
�That�s the one I was talking about.� Her voice changed,
�Get rid of him. That�s what I want to talk about.�
�Hey Nick, can you go on down to the limo and wait for me? I need to take this call.� He nodded and I held my clothes out to him, �Take these with you.� He dutifully took possession of my clothes and headed out the door.
�Ok, he�s gone.�
�Has he said anything about me?� Can�t say that he has.
�What do you mean?� Was there some juicy gossip about Sarah that Nick was keeping from me?
�I really think he�s the real thing Brehan. I mean, I can�t stop thinking about him. All day, every day he pops up in my head. Thank you so much for introducing us.� She was practically gushing. I sat down on the couch,
�He says he likes you.� At least I think he did. He had to.
�Is this love or something?� She released a deep love-stricken sigh,
�Maybe not yet but I think its headed that way. Talking with him is so relaxed and just thinking about him makes me smile. I have to keep myself from just flying out there. Its so tempting.�
�When are you going to see him again?� Who knew that I was a matchmaker extraordinaire?
�I don�t know. I�ll be free in another week. Maybe I can after that.� Unbelievable,
�So this is the real thing huh?� Again with the love-stricken sigh,
�I think so�maybe.� I congratulated her and told her Nick was waiting for me in the car downstairs to which I was chastised for being rude to him. That little bitch better be glad I loved her.
