"Oh my God guys!" Aine squealed as
she met the girls the next morning for breakfast. "Bryan asked me to be his
girlfriend!"
"What did you say?" Jenn asked.
"Well, I said I would have to make sure
it was ok. You know how Sherry is, we can only date certain guys that are good
for our image," Aine replied.
"I�m sure Bryan is ok," Kimmy
said.
Dawn laughed. "As long as Sherry
doesn�t find out the way you two act with each other."
"I already know," Sherry said as she
walked up to the girls� table. "And you can date him Aine, as long as the
sex-scapades stay behind closed doors."
"Yes!" Aine squealed and gave Sherry
a huge hug. "Thank you sooo much! I am so in love!" she proclaimed as
she swirled around before taking a seat.
"I am so happy for you," Sherry said
with a fake smile. "Ok, girls, business now. We�re doing Party in the
Park in three days, and we�re releasing a new single to radio next week. We
have a look of work ahead of us. Now, Erica has some new dance steps for you to
learn and Astric is taking you all shopping this afternoon. I have some meetings
to go to now, so ta." And Sherry was off again.
The girls all just looked at each other. They
never imagined they would be this busy when Sweet Reverie first started, as a
joke.
*****Memories******
The girls had all met up in Toronto to see
Westlife do a Live at Much special. That night, they all hit a karaoke bar and
as a joke sang "Wannabe" by the Spice Girls. Dave, from the super
Canadian boy band soulDecision, was there and thought they were fabulous. He
asked for their numbers and the next thing they knew, Sweet Reverie was signed
to MCA. The record was recorded and a single released. They shot to the top of
the charts and were sent to conquer the UK. "What I Wanna Do" was an
instant number and stayed at the top for three weeks until Westlife�s
"When You�re Looking Like That" knocked them off. Weeks later, it
was time to start it all over again, a new single and the release of the album.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Work with me ladies! Work with me!"
Erica commanded. "You are hopeless, you�ll never get this right by
Saturday!" The girls just couldn�t get the dance steps right for the
songs they were to perform at Party.
"Shopping time!" Astric announced as
she waltzed into the practice studio.
"No way Astric, they�re still mine for
another 15 minutes."
"But we have an appointment with Dolce
and Gabbana in 20 minutes. They need to be there on time."
"Whatever. Girls," Erica said as she
turned to face them. "Tomorrow, we get it RIGHT or I kick your asses!"
The girls all nodded and ran off to change.
Shopping was much more fun then dancing.

"Oh, and you are gorgeous!" Domenico
told Kimmy as she walked out of the dressing rooms in a slinky little black
dress.
"But there is barely anything here,"
she said, not thrilled with the fact that there was almost no fabric on the
dress.
"That�s why it is so fun darling!"
he giggled. "Isn�t that right Stefano?"
"But of course Dom. Now where is that
cute little blonde Aine?"
Aine pranced out in a tiny white number, a
tight little skirt and an almost completely shear top. "Oh, Bryan would
love this!" she squealed.
"Bryan? Bryan Westlife?" Stefano
asked.
"Yup," she sighed. "We�re
dating now."
"Oh really?" Domencio said.
"You must tell us all the details." If there was anything the Italian
designers like more than fashion, it was gossip.
"There�s not much to tell," Dawn
answered before Aine could open her mouth. She knew Aine would tell them all
about how blessed Bryan was and how many times they had had sex in the past two
days.
"Oh, ok," Stefano said as he looked
at Dawn. She was wearing these skin-tight black leather pants, which had to be
tied on the side to stay on, and a white button down men�s shirt over an itsy
bitsy black tank that covered nothing but her breasts.
"I am NOT wearing this!" Dawn
announced.
"But you look so stunning," Domenico
told her.
"No, I look like a two-bit whore. I am
not a street-walker, I�m a singer!"
"But Britney wears things like
this," Stefano protested.
"Well, I am not Britney," she
shouted. "I prefer to leave things to the imagination." She began
pulling at the pants, trying to make them looser.
"Don�t argue with them," Astric
pleaded with Dawn. It had taken her hours of begging to get Dolce and Gabbana to
outfit the girls.
"I am NOT wearing this!" Dawn
screamed.
"I�m not comfort with this
either," Kimmy agreed.
Soon all the girls except Aine were whining
about their clothes. "Fine," Astric said. "We�re going to
Tommy. I think his things are better for the show anyway. Thanks for all your
help Dom and Stefano." She gave them both kisses on the cheeks and led the
girls away.

"I know you want leather but not trashy
leather, so I think you will like this," Tommy said as the ladies that
worked for him in London carried out several armfuls of clothing. The girls
giggled as they threw things about and picked out the pieces they liked. They
made mad dashes back and forth between the dressing rooms and the clothing,
trying to find the perfect ensembles.
Aine was the first one done. She chose a short
black leather skirt that had a subtle flair and a bright red sequined bra-top
and matching shiny green top tied around her waist. Add a pair of knee-high
black boots and she was done.
Kimmy was the picture of sophistication in a
knee-length, black leather skirt, a dark blue shiny shirt and a black leather
waistcoat.
Jenn was sporting a pair of baggy black
trousers, a black sports bra and a purple shimmery shirt open over it.
Shawna couldn�t have looked more innocent in
a black floor-length skirt with a slit to the knee and a pink top tied at her
waist.
They were waiting for Dawn to come out of the
dressing room, when Westlife walked in. "Bryan!" Ainie squealed and
ran over and jumped into his arms. He picked her up and spun her around the
room, covering her with kisses. Kimmy watched with a bit of jealously and looked
over at Shane, who pretended not to see her. Kian walked over to Jenn and Shawna
and told them some joke, to which they both laughed. Nicky stood by Shane and
said, "Look at how gorgeous she is Shane." Shane just rolled his eyes,
not wanting to admit that Nicky was right.
Mark stood near the door, wondering where Dawn
was. His jaw dropped to the floor as she walked out. Tight black leather
trousers, a wine-colored shiny shirt and a black floor-length jacket. She looked
perfect with her brown hair all pulled up in a ponytail. Dawn noticed Mark
looking at her and quickly told Kimmy, "I�m going to change now."
And off she went back into the dressing rooms.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"How ya�ll doing today?" Aine
screamed to the crowd at Party in the Park three days later. The sun, amazingly,
was shining and the place was of course packed. The audience screamed back at
her. "We�re Sweet Reverie and we�ve got a message for ya! Hit
boys!" she hollered to the band as they started the music.
(Aine): I woke up this morning with
a buzz rollin� round in my brain
I haven�t been drinkin� but it
feels pretty good just the same
(Kimmy): It must be contagious,
looks like it�s goin� round
It�s cool once you catch it, you
can�t keep your feet on the ground
(Dawn): C�mon, c�mon, let�s
get something started
C�mon, c�mon, let�s start
something now!
(All): We�re gonna rock this
country
We�re gonna rock this country
Every brown-eyed boy, every
blue-eyed girl
Gotta really go psycho-give it a
whirl
We�re gonna rock this country
Right outta this world
Ah-oo-na-na-na�K
(Shawna): From Manchester to
Southampton, Liverpool and London too
Or Birmingham, no matter where
you live, this buzz�s for you
C�mon, c�mon, let�s get
something started
C�mon, c�mon, let�s start
something now!
We�re gonna rock this country
We�re gonna rock this country
Every brown-eyed boy, every
blue-eyed girl
Gotta really go psycho-give it a
whirl
We�re gonna rock this country
Right outta this world
Ah-oo-na-na-na�K
Ah-oo-na-na-na�K
(Jenn): We�re pluggin� in the
power
Crankin� up the sound
It�s comin� your direction
It�s headin� to your town
We�re kickin� up dust
Blowin� off steam
Let�s get nuts now
Everybody scream!!!
We�re gonna rock this country
We�re gonna rock this country
Every brown-eyed boy, every
blue-eyed girl
Gotta really go psycho-give it a
whirl
We�re gonna rock this country
Right outta this world!
The crown went insane as the song ended. The
girls all bowed and grinned at each other. It was time for their trademark song,
the one that had just gotten them their second number one in America, and they
hoped would be their second number one in the UK. "Let�s go girls!"
Dawn hollered and pulled her hair out of the ponytail, shaking her head so it
fell down all around her. Westlife was sitting on the side, backstage and
Mark�s breath was taken away. He wanted her, and he didn�t care what he had
to do to get her. Kimmy and Dawn threw off their jackets and Jenn and Aine got
rid of their shirts.
�
I�m going out tonight, I�m
feelin� alright
Gonna let it all hang out
Wanna make some noise, really
raise my voice
Yeah, I wanna scream and shout
No inhibitions make no conditions
Get a little outta line
I ain�t gonna act politically
correct
I only wanna have a good time
The best thing about being a
woman
Is the prerogative to have a
little fun and�K.
Oh, oh, oh go totally crazy,
forget I�m a lady
Men�s shirts, short skirts
Oh, oh, oh really go wild, yeah,
doin� it in style
Oh, oh, oh get in the action, feel
the attraction
Color my hair, do what I dare
Oh, oh, oh, wanna be free, yeah,
to feel the way I feel
Man, I feel like a woman
The girls need a break, tonight
we�re gonna take
The chance to get out on the town
We don�t need romance, we only
wanna dance
We�re gonna let our hair hang down
The best thing about being a
woman
Is the prerogative to have a
little fun and�K.
Oh, oh, oh go totally crazy,
forget I�m a lady
Men�s shirts, short skirts
Oh, oh, oh really go wild, yeah,
doin� it in style
Oh, oh, oh get in the action, feel
the attraction
Color my hair, do what I dare
Oh, oh, oh, wanna be free, yeah,
to feel the way I feel
Man, I feel like a woman
During the instrumental, Aine ran over and
grabbed Bryan and pulled him out onto the stage. He pretended to fight her, but
laughed all the way out. "Let�s go with him," Kian suggested and the
other lads joined Bryan. Kian and Nicky stood near Jenn and Shawna. Kimmy
grabbed Shane. "You�re singing with me Filan!" she commanded. He
reluctantly agreed. Mark walked near Dawn, but she just coolly ignored him.
"Can we call a truce?" he asked. Dawn held up a finger to silence him
and sang.
The best thing about being a
woman
Is the prerogative to have a
little fun, fun, fun
Westlife joined in on this round of the
chorus.
Oh, oh, oh go totally crazy,
forget I�m a lady
Men�s shirts, short skirts
Oh, oh, oh really go wild, yeah,
doin� it in style
Oh, oh, oh get in the action, feel
the attraction
Color my hair, do what I dare
Oh, oh, oh, wanna be free, yeah,
to feel the way I feel
�
Bryan did the honors on "Man, I feel like
a woman!" which brought rounds of laughter from the crowd. He nudged Shane
in the arm and Shane ended up singing the ending with Kimmy.
I get totally crazy
Can you feel it?
Come, come, come on baby woah!
I feel like a woman!
The next thing everyone knew, over 100,000
people had taken to their feet to give the two groups a standing ovation.
"I think we�re onto something here," Louis told Sherry as the two
managers watched from backstage.
"Are you thinking what I�m
thinking?" Sherry replied.
"A collaboration, and soon," Louis
answered.
