| Chapter Ten Christina stepped out of the car the spa had sent, she gazed in awe at her surroundings. The Spa was beautiful. There were pretty trees all around and the buildings looked like mansions, but in a homely way not imtimdating. And to top it all off ,was the most beautiful fountain in the middle of the courtyard. Christina smiled and she was sure she was going to like this place. Christina yawned and streched after getting her wake-up call. Then she snuggled back into her bed.It was comfortable and there were so many soft pillows. She contently fell back to sleep. When she peacefully woke up,her eyes fell on the clock and she jumped up with a a start. It was 7:43. And she had a facial and massage at 8:00. She leapt from her bed and ran to the bathroom. She hurriedly showered, and got dressed her hair was still damp when she left. When she got into the hall she pulled her schedule out to see where to go. 8:00 Facial and Massage-Room 113 That was all it said.No map or anything. She had five minutes to get there and she had no idea where there was. She took a chance and went left, looking down at her paper for any clues, she rushed on, not looking where she was going, She ran right into someone. "Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry." "It's my fault, I ran into you." A guy said. "You didn't run into me." Chrisitna said. "I know, I was trying to make you feel better,"He said, turning slightly red. "Thanks, but it seems to happen to me all the time." She chuckled. "What?" The guy asked, a little confused. "Oh nothing,"She smiled to herself, then pushed Justin out of her head, "But Thanks." she said again. "No problem, I'm Cameron." "I'm Christina, Nice to meet you, Cameron." She smiled, tilting her head to the side. Cameron blushed."You too." Christina giggled, she had never met a guy who blushed so easily. "Do you happen to know where room 113 is?" "I sure do. My family comes here all the time." Christina followed his lead and they got there quickly. Christina turned to thank him, and she saw Cameron looking at her intently. "What? Do I have something on my face?" "Oh!" Cameron blushed again. "No, I was just thinkin that you look familar." Christina blushed,then not wanting him to think she was bragging, she said. "Well if you figure it out tell me." Cameron looked at his watch. "Well i have strength training in a few so I'll see you later, okay?" "Sure. Bye. Oh and thanks for helping me." Christina said. "No problem," He flashed her a sweet smile and was off. Christina walked into the room, inside was a waiting room, and there were about four girls her age chatting away excitedly. One girl glanced at her and stopped dead. "Oh.My.Gosh! You're Christina! From the Mickey Mouse Club!" The other girls were gathering around now, all talking fast. "Yeah, you know MMC, the hottest teen show ever." The others started to recognize her, Christina just smiled, tight lipped embarrssed for this screaming girl,as others looked at them funny. "So?" The girl said, looking at Christina, expectantly. "So....what?" Christina frowned, confused. "So what are you doing here at this spa? Shouldn't you be hanging out with movie stars and stuff?" Christina laughed and the girl frowned slightly." What are you laughing at?" "I don't hang out with movie stars. I'm as normal as anyone." The girl narrowed her eyes and stormed off. Christina rolled her eyes, with all these star-struck people, she didn't know how she would last the rest of the summer. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Christina hurried back to her room. She had had a busy day full of swimming,exersise, mud baths, manicures, and more. And she really needed to spruce up for dinner. She jumped into the shower and finished getting ready, then she changed into a pink sundress,looked in the mirror on last time then headed out the door. When she finally got to the resterant, there was a long line, she looked around but couldn't find her mom or sister anywhere so she was standing in the back of the line when she heard a voice. "Hi, Christina." She turned to see Cameron. "Hi!" "Okay don't tell anyone but I can get you in ahead of all these people." He grinned. "Follow me." Christina followed Cameron as he went around the building and up to a door. He knocked once, paused, knocked three times, paused, and knocked twice more. The door came flying open to reveal a very large african american women. "Cam- ron, suga, I haven't seen you in for-eva!" She grabbed him and pulled him into a great big bear hug. Cameron's face turned red but he was smiling all the same. The woman stopped hugging Cameron and turned to Christina."I know who you are!" she exclaimed, "You're on the Mickey Show." "Yeah," Christina admitted. " The Mickey Mouse Club. MMC." "A real live TV star. Mmm-mmm."She said. "Well I'm Miss Iraylan." She said it all like she met TV stars everyday so Christina didn't feel weird like some people made her feel. Cameron was gaping. "I knew I recognized you from somewhere." he said. "So," Miss Iraylan said." How hungry are we today?" "Starving!" Cameron said. "Famished!" Chrisitna laughed. Miss Iraylan fixed them each a plate with extra helpings. "You best hurry your hind-ends in there or you will find no seats to sit them on." Miss Iraylan said, shooing them out of her kitchen so she could get back to work. They quickly found a good seat by the big windows. Thankfully they hadn't opened the doors yet. "So," Cameron said,placing a straw in his coke."Why didn't you tell me you were on TV." "Well, I guess I didn't want you to think I was one of those high-bred movie stars, who think they're the best. So many times when people realize who I am they automaticly label me, snob." "I don't see how they could." Cameron said. Christina rolled her eyes and blushed. "Do you understand?" Cameron tilted his head to the side." I think so." "And besides that everyone wants to be my best friend!" She exclaimed, only half-joking. Just then, the girls she had met in room 113's waiting room, led by the snotty girl, gathered around at the table. The snotty girl plopped down beside Christina and said. "Whew! I thought we'd lost you..." She went on, giving Christina a side hug. " We're going to be the best of friends!" With that Christina and Cameron burst out laughing. |
