|| The Day The Street Team Was Busted
Part 1

Previous | Next

It had been a normal day on the street team for all the busted fans but one special thing was going to happen, no one knew about it.

"Hey grab us a drink." said Matt. James sleepily got up and walked into the kitchen. He opened the fridge, grabbed a drink, and took it back to Matt who was sitting at the computer. James leant over the empty bottles on the floor to pass it to him.

"What are ya doing?" said James. In reply Matt said, "Oh just looking around the net, wanna go? Know any sites I can look at?"

James got up again, dragged up a chair, kicked some bottles out of the way and sat down. Matt took a swig of his drink, "D'ya wanna bit mateage?" James refused. "Hey lets visit one of our sites" giggled James. "K then, erm, which one?" asked a confused Matt. Matt pulled a silly face, James laughed. "How 'bout we thank our fans, where do they hang about at this time of night?"
James questioned.

"Sure, Amanda told me the street team is good! She gave me the address somewhere!" Matt stood up and delved into his jean pocket. "Ah-ha found it"
he read it out and James typed it in. Matt slammed the return key and they both looked at each other and burst out laughing. Matt sat down again as the site began to load.

"K we'll have join" said James. Matt snatched the mouse and clicked the icon in the top right corner. They entered their details but then paused. They needed an email address so that no one would know would who they were.
James thought long and hard and decided just to use Matt's; no one would believe them anyway.

They clicked join and returned to the homepage. Matt read out what the introduction said in a posh voice, imitating Charlie who was in the next flat with his brother. James scrolled further down the screen and they noticed a message had just been posted. "Hey what's that? Click that!" Matt ordered.
James clicked on the message titled 'Any spoons alive out there?' The message opened and this time James read it. 'Helo ppl Danni ere, ne 1 wanna chat? Midge, Maz, Emma, NE1? I'm waaaaay brd! xxx danni xxx'

"How do you reply?" enquired Matt.
"You don't actually want to reply do you it's way to dangerous" shouted James so Girls Aloud could hear them across the hallway.

"SHUT UP YOU LOUD MOUTHED WANKERS WE ARE TRYING TO SLEEP." came the reply.
"WELL YOU ARE SHOUTING TOO YOU DAFT BITCHES" replied Matt.
They heard another voice "ALL OF YOU SHUT UP!".
"Hey it's Charlie" said James to Matt. "Should I go get him? This will be way cool, you reply while I go and get him." said Matt.
The door slammed shut and Matt had gone before James could argue.

So James clicked reply and began to type. Meanwhile Matt had just reached the top of the stairs. He turned left and knocked on the door ahead, the door opened slightly and Matt pushed the door wide open and stormed in, walking straight into Charlie who said:
"Erm Matt what are you doing here?"
"I came to invite you round to our flat, we are gonna talk to some fans on the street team, you coming?" suggested Matt.
"Erm��� well���" he pondered.
"We got booze." said Matt desperately.
"K then mateage you better have loads" he joked.
They both ran down the stairs and opened the door to the flat. Matt jumped into his chair ad Charlie pulled up a stool. James shouted as Charlie walked over with his stool. "Hey there's a reply from someone different!"
"Let me have a go." argued Charlie.

Charlie swapped with James and clicked on the message. Charlie whispered what it said "Heya I'm ere! I've txted Nem Maz and Emma u can txt Steph, as I have no cred. Thy r all a cumin u beta hav cred xxx midge xxx" Charlie clicked reply and Matt shouted out "Am I the only fucking person who doesn't know how to use this site?"
"Erm yer Matt!" says Charlie.
Charlie grabbed the keyboard and wrote 'Dnt ignor us dnt u no hu we r?" and clicked post. James shouted "NOOOOOOOOOO, Charlie don't do that they can't know who are!!!"

"Why they can't be that bad, I bet they are really nice!" answered Charlie trying to stay calm. They returned to the messages page and James went to get some food whilst waiting for a reply!
When James sat back down Matt refreshed the page and there was a reply.
Matt clicked on it and this time he read it out with no attempt to be quiet "OMFG its not, erm BUSTED, oh wow so what d'ya wanna tlk bout cos I dnt hav a clu! xxx midge xxx"
"See I told you Charlie, you cockmonkey!!!!" said Matt.
I'm going to bed, I'm not gonna get in trouble!" James got up and walked out. Charlie moved back into James' chair "Reply then" prompted Charlie. So Matt copying how he saw Charlie do pressed the reply button.
"Leave it to me, go get me some crisps!" ordered Charlie. Matt got up and walked off in a mood.

Charlie began to type 'Hey yer it is us Busted. So how are you lot? Who do you lot like best? Please reply loadsa luv Busted'
And just as Matt returned into the room he pressed post and the message was sent. Matt sat back down. "Well where are my crisps?" asked Charlie as the messages page loaded. "Ain't got none." answered Matt "What did you write?" he asked.
"Wow there are loads of replies now" screamed Charlie totally ignoring what Matt just said.
"1, 2, 3 - oh I give up just read 'em." Matt said as he tried to count on his fingers. Charlie clicked the 1st of many messages and waited for it to open.

He clicked the last message and read it aloud "Hiya ppl, wot u up 2 sowy im l8 but im not suposd 2 b on ere! I'm always last ain't I? Lol! Maz Bourne."

Matt burst out laughing "If only James was ere to see this, I wana reply to this one" said Matt still laughing.

Charlie clicked reply and Matt took the keyboard. 'Hey Maz Bourne, Matt ere hows u?
Charlie stole the keyboard from Matt and wrote "Hi Charlie speaking now, I got an idea, u guys coming to the vid shoot? If ya r or if ya not old enuf we wil let 6 of ya in 2 c us backstage. We r brd so we wnt 2 reward u lot 4 our numba 1! So 1st 6 2 ansa can cum make sure u r free 1st!

Matt took the keyboard back again and Charlie tried to grab it back. This ended in a load of random letters being typed on the screen. Matt gave up and pressed post.

Just minutes later 7 messages appeared on the screen. "That was quick." said Charlie. Matt clicked on the first message and it opened. It was from Danni. 'Steph's a cumin 2." He clicked back and opened the next message. It opened and Charlie read it out moving his finger along the screen as he did so.
'OH YES I WUD LOVE 2 CUM. ERM HOW COME U GUYS R ERE? I'VE JUST COME ONLINE AND I'M A BIT CONFUDDLED! Loadsa luv emma xxx'

Everything went silent and they heard footsteps. James peeped his head round the door and walked in. "Are you guys still on ere its 1 AM. "Yer sure man, we are inviting 6 fans to meet us at the vid shoot!" answered Matt. "Oh" said James who was still half asleep.
"K we better reply mateages!" said Charlie breaking the silence as he clicked post.
"Let me have a go now" said James "You have been online for ages."

Matt passed the keyboard onto James and he wrote, "You can come then you are 1st on the list. So hu is ur fav outa us? (me hint hint) luv james. He clicked post and returned to the messages page.

He clicked on the next message down. Matt coughed in a sarcastic manner and said "I wanna cum 2, we all do, like we wud refuse, we luv u! Well I LOVE CHARLIE but maz loves james. Danni steph emma and midge all love matt xxx nem xxx" he paused and took a breath and smiled to himself for being most liked for once.

James clicked post and he passed the keyboard to Charlie. 'heya nem wow u love me I love u 2 J, lol!!! U can cum 2 in fact lets just say all those names u just mentioned can come, i think ther are 6 ther if not so wot! Love Charlie xxx'

James clicked post "look at the time" said James "we are on the saturday show 2moro, or shud I say 2day, its 1:30 AM!! We'd betta go!"

"Hang on wait for them to reply then we will tell them. We have more messages to read now." said Matt looking at the screen.
Saying that Charlie stole the mouse and clicked on a message. James read it but stopped halfway through, he got up and walked out of the room. So Matt began again from the beginning
'Sure I'll come is matt ther 2? Tell him I love him forever. When is the video shoot, I'll cancel so it dnt reely matta! OMG I cnt bleve im tlkin 2 u! ne way I will shut up now OMG loadsa luv steph xoxox!!!!!!'

Charlie clicked reply and typed whilst Matt got up to find James. He returned just in time to see Charlie finishing his message. It said 'Ok then we hav to go! I told Matt u love him! We hav 2 get up early 2moro 4 tss n james has disappeared c ya erm 2moro mayb!!! Make sure no1 tells ne1 wot hapend 2nite! C ya luv Charlie.'

"K I'm dun" said Charlie. He got up, walked out of the door and up the stairs and Matt heard a door slam. "Don't say goodbye then" said Matt locking the door. JAMES I'm off to bed now, see you in the morning!!" exclaimed Matt. Ok then I'm just getting some jaffa's n a drink cos im peckish! NIGHT!!!!

The next morning there was a knock at the door. Both Matt and James were still fast asleep. The person at the door knocked again. Meanwhile Charlie was just coming down the stairs. He was dressed in a black shirt, white tie jeans and blazer. He joined in with the knocking. Eventually James sleepily opened the door to their manager Fletch.

"What the hell have you been doing we've got to be at the Saturday show in half an hour." Said Fletch angrily.
"K I'll go and wake Matt up we'll be ready in 10 minutes." said James. "That will be hard for Matt" joked Charlie.
James shut the door and Fletch followed Charlie up to his flat for a cuppa. "MATT WAKE UP NOW" shouted James banging on Matt's bedroom door. "K I'm coming" he replied. James walked back to the bathroom and got dressed.
That minute Matt walked into the kitchen still fiddling with his hair. "You ready?" he asked James. "Yer sure" replied James walking out of the bathroom.
They walked out of the door locking it behind them. Fletch and Charlie were waiting outside and they all walked outside of the block of flats in Finchley.
They got into the limo and Fletch ushered the driver to leave. Matt laid back and turned on the onboard TV, girls aloud were on the music channel he made fun of them for a bit but turned it off!!!!!!!!

Before they knew it thy wer there. They entered through the back door and bumped straight into Girls Aloud. James said "Hi" but he was ignored.
James and Charlie walked off and Matt stayed behind blocking Girls Aloud's path out of the door.
"My mate said hi to you!" said Matt. "So" replied Nicola. "Well why did you ignore him?" asked Matt as politely as he could.
"Because he's an annoying bastard and so are you! What the fuck were you doing last night?" shouted Nicola angrily.
"You are just rude you are, man, that was no reason to ignore him you rude ginger�" Matt paused. Charlie and James had walked up behind Nicola.
Matt pushed past Nicola and walked off with James and Charlie for a sound check.

The Saturday Show was now over and they managed to leave without bumping into Girls Aloud again. They arrived back home and Matt suggested going back on the computer. James and Charlie agreed. Matt sat down and James and Charlie pulled up chairs. The drinks bottles were still on the floor from the night before.
Matt connected to the Internet and typed the street team address in. As soon as the site loaded Matt clicked post and typed 'Hey u 6 frm last nite no ne wer we can go 2 chat? U no hu we r!!! J. Matt clicked the send button and passed the mouse to James. Charlie took the keyboard. They waited a couple of minutes and refreshed the page. James clicked the message at the bottom and Matt read it out "Erm we can go to
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/shrine2busted It's midge's. Go on the chat bit n I'll tell the others. C u ther luv danni xxx"

They typed the address in and clicked on chat. They waited and someone suddenly appeared under the name of 'emma_loves_mj'.
Matt took the keyboard she's mine. 'Hiya Matt ere, can u come 2 that fing nxt week' he rote and pressed return.
She replied 'I can, I cnt w8 2 c u tho!!!'
Suddenly 5 other people appeared in the chat.
Matt typed 'Hiya, so can u lot all come 2 the vid shoot?'
'Yep' appeared 5 times in a row on the screen.
'K thn all gud arrive 4 10 n dnt get lost, lol' he rote

Suddenly there was a knock at the door. James got up and answered in a loud voice so Matt could hear "HI FLETCH, ERM MATT'S ERM HE'S ERM�" Matt wrote as quickly as he could 'g2g fletch is at the door wil get dun bye ppl!'
He closed down the computer and ran over to the door tripping over the chair on the way. "I'm ere Fletch, sorry was in the bathroom" said Matt cleverly covering up his delay.

"Charlie told me you are having some fans meeting you backstage at the video shoot we need to sort it out." said Fletch.
"Erm all sorted 6 are coming at 10 AM don't mind do you?" enquired Matt.

"No I don't as long as it's sorted." said Fletch as he walked away. "Sure is" said Matt smiling to himself. A WEEK LATER

Maz awoke at 9 AM and got dressed ready for the video shoot. She rang 3 of her mates Midge, Nem and Emma to see if they were ready.
She left for the train, it arrived almost immediately and her parents and her brother waved her off.

Emma had also left but she was in her parent's car with her younger sister Chloe. They had Busted music blaring out of the windows and Emma and Chloe were singing along to Year 3000.

Nem, Danni and Steph were also leaving their houses. Midge had already left and was travelling down the motorway to London.
They were all very excited. Time passed quickly and it was 10:50 AM. Midge had just arrived and there were loads of people there all dressed in Busted clothes with Busted banners. Midge was just wearing jeans and a t-shirt so she felt a bit embarrassed and out of place.
But then she saw four cars pull up. One person got out of each walked towards her. The blonde one said "Midge?" Midge replied, "Yer I'm Midge and you four are?
"I'm Danni."
"I'm, Steph."
"I'm Emma."
"I'm, Nem." They all replied.
"I'm so excited" said Midge " I wonder how they will find us?"
"I dunno" said a voice that came from behind Midge. "Erm hi, you must be�"
"Maz" they all chorused at the same time.
Everything went silent and then there was a burst of laughter.
They saw a security guard walking towards them. "Are you the 6 here to meet busted?" asked a deep voice.
"Yup we are" said Maz.
"Ok come around the back once those lot have gone in, they can't know" he ordered then turned and walked away.
So they stood there talking for a while and then walked off down the side where the security guard came from. They were then told to follow this man down the corridor. He told them to knock on this door and he walked away.
They stood outside for a while gob smacked at what might be behind the door. This has always been their dream and now it was going to come true.

They all knocked at the same time and the door opened. They just stood there, with their mouths wide open. Danni nearly fainted but Emma and Steph grabbed her. A cockney voice said, "Come in" and they all walked in, in a huddle as if they were frightened. They wer asked to sit down. "Would you like a drink?" asked a much deeper voice. They all chorused, "Yes please". Charlie poured 9 drinks and handed them out. Nem shivered when Charlie touched her hand to pass her the drink. Emma was shaking and she dropped the glass and it smashed all over the floor. "Sorry I'm erm really sorry" she said and she ran out of the room. "I'll go." said Midge. Midge followed Emma out of the door and she saw her crying on the floor. Midge sat down beside and eventually persuaded her to go back in.

Emma sat back down and Midge stood next to Danni as Matt had sat down next to Emma to talk to her an tell her it was okay Emma soon was smiling again. Then James came into the room and Maz blushed. He announced that they had decided to give them special parts in the video as 6 girls, 3 that they are supposed be losing to another guy and 3 that they are getting. "So we need two girls for each of us." He said.

All of the girls were now smiling. Matt said "K who wants to be the girl I am losing?"
Danni, Steph, Midge and Emma all raised their hands. "K this will be hard" said Matt "Erm which two of the four who just put their hands up don't mind going with Charlie or James?" Midge and Emma raised their hands again and laughed together. "K then Danni and Steph you two are with me" announced Matt.
"Right" Charlie began. Nem immediately raised her hand and then Emma and Midge did too!!! "K I think Emma and Nem were first so they get the parts!!!"
Emma laughed at Midge. Midge was not impressed. James said " Ok Midge and Maz you are with me!!" "Now between you decided who is losing us n who is gaining us!" said Charlie. "Prepare for arguments" said Matt. But he was wrong they sorted it out without arguments.
Danni was losing Matt and Steph was gaining him.
Emma was losing Charlie and Nem was gaining him.
Midge was losing James and Maz was gaining him.

The time had come it was going to be filmed. The guys from Busted were standing with the girls they were losing and there was a private jet behind them outside. They all hugged the person they were leaving went outside blew them a kiss through the window and got on the plane that took off for the film but shortly landed. Then they had meet a new person, this was filmed inside the plane. They took the hand of this "new person" and walked off the plane to a different location, which the plane had flown to. "That's all we need you guys for at the moment" said Matt.

The girls walked off and began screaming, "OMG James held my hand, Charlie hugged me" etc. They were told to go and stand in a crowd outside around the plane and they got right at the front near the wings where Busted were standing with their guitars. They started to play and the all sang along Busted did a few jumps, not too high so as not to fall off and then the fans were told the video shoot was over.

Busted disappeared and the fans went inside, Maz, Midge Nem Emma Danni and Steph were all grabbed aside by a security guard and were told to follow him. They did and they arrived back at Busted's dressing room. They knocked they were less nervous this time, but were wondering why they were called back.

The door opened and Charlie invited them in. He said " Thanks for coming today, we brought you here because we bought you all a little present. Each of you come to each one of us one at a time. Maz stepped up first to Matt he gave her a hug and kiss on the cheek and she moved along. She got the same from Charlie and James. When she reached James she got something from behind him it was a platinum disk of You Said No.

Everyone got the same from each person a kiss and a hug and a disk from James. They all got their disks signed and left through the back door and made a quick exit to their parents who were waiting outside for them. They all said goodbye to each other and went their separate ways. They all agreed on one thing it was the best day ever WHEN THE STREET TEAM WAS BUSTED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
