| Chapter Thirteen Patty walked into the hallway and walked into the living room as if it was some kind of catwalk. She shook her hips and burst out in laughter when Justin and Dawnovan started wolf-whistling and cheering. Justin�s eyes scanned up and down her five-foot tall frame appreciatively. �Wow, Patty, you look gorgeous,� he breathed. �Thanks. You�re a doll,� she said in a fake French accent, and sauntered back to her room to finish getting dressed. D stood at her closet doors, at a loss for what to wear. Patty was going to wear her red halter dress with black stilettos and Jade was going to wear her light blue miniskirt with a halter and stilettos�. D sighed and grabbed her burgundy sequined halter, her favorite pair of black pants, and her stilettos. Justin�s eyes nearly popped out of his head when Jade came slowly out of her room and announced she was ready. She blushed and sat down, causing her black curls to bounce up and down. D emerged a few minutes later. She got a wolf-whistle from Justin and a kiss on the cheek from Dawn, who looked gorgeous also in his long sleeved button down blue chambray shirt and khaki Dockers. She flipped her stick straight shiny brown hair from side to side, which allowed the light in the room to catch her blonde highlights and make them sparkle. Finally Patty emerged. She stood back and watched everyone having a good time. She cleared her throat and everyone turned. She waved. �Y�all about ready to go?� She asked, an air of authority about her. Justin laughed. She was a tiny brunette with a nice laugh and nice lips and the thought of her being a leader kept him giggling. �We�re ready, aren�t we guys?� �Great then, let�s go. Dawn and D can come with me. Jade, you and Justin can take your S2000. Is that okay with everyone?� Patty raised her eyebrows. When no one spoke up, she smiled widely. �Let�s get out of here.� *~*~* JC paced around his hotel room nervously. He was making sure everything was perfect. The hotel had food, beer, and wine delivered and JC was double-checking the inventory. He smoothed his khaki�s and straightened his maroon polo shirt. He looked in the mirror and smiled. He couldn�t wait to see Patty. Chris bounced in, with Joey and Lance behind him. �Hey, no one�s seen Justin?� He asked. JC shook his head. �Not since this morning when we were recording.� �Actually, he took off with Patty when we broke for lunch. I saw him roaming around the parking lot, and they left together,� Lance said. �Hmm, weird,� Chris commented, and walked out without another word. JC frowned. Patty had acted like she hadn�t seen Justin all day when he had last seen her. He wondered what was up as he idly smoothed his shirt in the mirror. *~*~* Nick frowned again. His hair just wouldn�t fix. AJ was sitting on the edge of the bathtub, fascinated with the entire process. Nick was getting frustrated and ran his fingers through the blonde mess again. �How do you get that gunk out?� AJ asked, picking up the bottle of hair glue. Nick snatched the bottle from him and scowled. �With shampoo. How else?� AJ laughed. �So that�s why you need a new bottle every three days.� He paused, and then clapped his hands excitedly. �I�m gonna see D tonight. I�m so glad. She is seriously one cool chick.� Nick smiled. He was going to see Patty, and since Kevin was taking that Heather girl, he knew Patty was going to be all his. Unless, of course, that JC guy decided to make a move. Nick frowned, but resumed his grin as he imagined what he and little Pattycakes would hopefully be doing later on that evening. �Earth to Nick�� AJ�s voice broke into Nick�s dirty little thoughts. �We�re ready to go. Are you?� Nick looked at his hair in the mirror once more. He was unsatisfied, but shrugged, knowing that by messing with it he was just going to get more and more stressed out. �Yeah,� he said. �Let�s go.� Chapter Fourteen HOME |
