(Julia picks up her things, walks to the door, opens her apartment, drops her things, runs to her room, and starts to cry on her bed. The boys spend the next few days in her apartment, sort of like backstreet headquarters, to finalize the new tour dates and such. Kevin, Brian, and Howie have all gone home.)
Nick: I�ve got to get out of here.
Julia: Why?
Nick: I�m going crazy�that�s why.
Julia: I hear ya.
Nick: I just need to get away�ya know?
Julia: Yea�I do. (Gets a smile on her face)
Nick: What�s that look for?
Julia: I have two words for you Nick�road�trip.
Nick: Ok�you really have lost your mind.
Julia: Seriously�think about it�we need to get away�I know the perfect place�care to join me?
Nick: Where to?
Julia: You�ll see. (Starts to pack)
(Julia and Nick get into her car and start to drive. A few hours later they arrive at Julia�s school.)
Nick: What are we doing here?
Julia: Visiting my sister. No one will bother us here.
(They get out of the car and walk over to Julia�s dorm. Julia knocks on the door.)
Megan: (opens the door) Oh my god! (She sees someone else with her) Tony how are you?
Julia: I�m good. How�ve you been?
Megan: Great. I miss talking to you. You don�t call anymore.
Julia: Sorry I�ve been busy. Where�s Jules?
Megan: She�s at class. She should be back any minute now.
Julia: Great. (Walks in the room and sits on her bed) I miss this place.
Nick: I thought you never went to college?
Julia: (looks at Megan) I didn�t. But I would come up here a lot and visit.
Nick: Oh ok.
Megan: So tell me what�s been going on?
Julia: So much has happened.
Megan: We heard about AJ. How�s he doing?
Nick: He�s doing better.
Megan: That�s great. Me and Jules were so upset.
Julia: (looks at Megan) I�m sure she was.
Megan: You know how she is.
Julia: Yup.
Antonia: (comes into the dorm room and sees Julia on her bed and Nick standing in the corner) Tony?
Julia: Hey Jules.
Antonia: (puts her books down and walks over to hug Julia) What are you doing here?
Julia: Visiting. I can�t visit my sis?
Antonia: Sure you can. (Hugs Julia and whispers) What�s he doing here?
Julia: (whispers) We needed a break�you heard about AJ right?
Antonia: (shakes head yes)
Julia: Yeah so�this is Nick. (Gets up and walks over to him) Say hello.
Nick: Hello.
Julia: You can sit down you know.
Nick: Sorry.
Antonia: So�how long will you two be here?
Julia: A few days.
Antonia: (gritting her teeth) Great. (Smiles)
Nick: I remember you food girl.
Antonia: (looks at him) Huh?
Nick: Remember, the last time we met�you were stealing food from us�and then you dropped it all over the floor.
Antonia: (looks at Julia who is covering her face with her hands and shaking her head yes) Oh right�I remember now. Sorry about that.
Nick: I didn�t mind�but your mom wasn�t too happy about it.
Antonia: She never is.
Julia: So why don�t we all go out to eat?
Antonia: Where are we going to go�the cafeteria?
Julia: If I remember correctly�that food can kill ya.
Megan: It hasn�t changed.
Julia: So let�s go to the restaurant down the street. Come on my treat.
Antonia: I don�t know. I�ve got all this homework to do and�
Julia: Come on Jules�I know you can spare a few minutes to eat with your sister.
Antonia: (sighs) Fine.
Julia: Great!
