| Set Adrift On Memory Bliss |
| Aj had been staring at the walls for hours. He was trying to think about what to do about Jessica. He had taken Jessica home hours ago and had gone straight home. He didn't know what to do. He wanted to be happy about the thought about her being with Justin. But every time that he thought about Jessica being with someone else, huging someone else, kissing someone else, it just made his stomach turn. He did want Jessica to be happy, but he just wished that she could be happy with him. "you had the chance and you blew it McLean" he said outloud He got up from his chair in his room and went to the kitchen. Jessica's favorite room. She loved cooking. Not many people knew that because she didn't make it a habit to cook for everyone. She had only cooked for three people. Vivian, himself, and unfortunatly Justin. According to everybody else she hated cooking. That was just the opposite. God he missed her. He missed everything about her. Ever since they broke up he had regret it. When Nick told him that she barely got out of her room, that she wasn't eating, that Justin had to shove the food down her throught just made him want to kill himself for hurting her. That's why he was so surprised to see her in the McDonalds the other day. He was happy to see her though. He didn't even know why he went to the McDonalds in the first place. He wasn't hungry and there was a chance a fan could have recognized him. He loved his fans of course, but, he just wasn't in the mood to be pop star that day. He wanted to be Alex. And one of the few people that made the Alex come out of him instead of the Aj was Jessica. He rememered the first day they met. She was only 16 then but she was still so beutiful. 16 year old Vivian walked in the backstreet boys tour bus. They where on the Backstreet Boys first american tour. She was opening for them, and doing a great job at it. "hey V" Nick greeted him He had such a crush on her. He was way too scared to ask her out though. "Hey nick." "whats with the grin V?" Aj asked "oh well, see my friend Jessica is coming for the summer part of the tour.I'm so happy i haven't seen her in months." she said "whos Jessica?" AJ aked "I didn't tell you guys about her?" "no" "well, she's my best friend,we met in the fifth grade. she's 16 and she's the complete opposite of me." "what do you been" Howie said "well she's shy and quiet, but she's really sarcastic, she's 5'7 while i'm only 5'2. she's more on the sporty side" "what do you mean" kevin said "well, she's not into shopping that much, while i can shop the whole day. She's always with different color streaks in her hair I will never color my hair purple like her. She's cool though you'll like her." "I guess it is true then" Nick spoke up "what is?" Vivian asked "opposites attrack" He said talking more about himself and Vivina then Jessica and Vivian ~that night after the show~ AJ was hanging backstage with Nick and Vivian when Nick noticed a girl walking toward them. "hey guys look, there's one of my fans" he pretended to slick his har back and waited until the girl stopped in front of them "you know Vivian you are the most impossible girl to find" she said "Jessica! Oh my god what are you doing here i thought you weren't coming till tomorrow?" "it's nice to see you too." "you know what i mean" "i lied obviosly, so anyway....Surprise." The girls hugged and laughed and forgot about the boys looking at the girl. AJ felt something in his heart turn on. He felt this sudden attraction to her. she was pretty, but he'd met other pretty girls before and he had never felt like this for any of them. "Vivian aren't you going to introduce me to your friend" Nick asked. AJ though was quiet. he was never quiet over a girl. She had that affect on him. She left him speechless. That was a first. "oh sorry. Guys this is Jessica, Jessica this is Nick and AJ some of the guys. You already knew that but i have to tell you anyway." "your a fan?" Nick asked "yeah, i loved the show by the way all of you were awesome." Jessica said "thank you" Nick answered. He was surprised that Aj hadn't said anything yet. Since when is Aj shy with a girl? Nick thought. "well guys, me and Jessica are going to the hotel. I'll see you tomorrow for the party?" The group, Vivian and the crew members were going to have a party the next day just like thery did every week. "yeah see you tomorrow. Nice to meet you Jessica" "nice to meet you too." Jessica answerd. She saw Nick nudge AJ to say something. "yeah i'll see you tomorow" he said. Vivian and Jessica left to the hotel. Vivian's manager had already arranged for Jessica to have the room next to Vivian and the guys so everything was set ~*the next morning*~ AJ was hanging out with Nick in his room when the someone knocked on the door. Since Nick was in the shower he answered the door. It was Vivian and Jessica. "Hey Aj" Vivian said. He opened the door more so they could get in. "Hey V. Jessica." he said they sat down on the couch and started chatting. Mostly AJ and Vivian though. Jessica barely said a word. Aj kept giving her side way glances hoping she didn't notice....she did.she didn't say anything though. Nick fianlly got out of the bathroom but he said he had to go because he had to get something with Howie. Vivian's cell then rang. *Vivians convo* "hello" "hey Vivian it's Nick but don't say my name ok?" "ok? what's going on" "i can't tell you just meet me downstairs ok?" "yeah sure" "bye" "bye" Vivian hanged up and turned to Aj and Jessica. "Look guy i have to go, sorry.Aj is it ok for Jessica to stay here?" "i'm fine i can go back to the room" Jessica interrupted "i don't mind. I have nothing to do anyway" he said this was his chance. he acted like a comeplete dork yesturday but today was his chance. "alright good" Vivian said and then left AJ and Jessica and AJ alone in the room. |
