�Speaking of her, she�s by herself,� he said.  Nick got up and started walking away.
�Later you two,� he said, walking over to Stephanie.  Brian sat down and looked at me. 
�How are you doing?� he asked me.
�I�m fine.  It�s been awhile since I had that feeling.�
�That�s good.  So, you and AJ getting along okay?�
�I suppose.  We haven�t talked in a while and we haven�t done anything.�
�How come?�
�Cause we don�t have the energy.  So, basically the only time we see each other is when we are working.�
�Oh,� but before he could say anything else, we landed in Zurich, Switzerland.  I grabbed my stuff, and in the process, bumped into AJ.
�Sorry AJ.�
�It�s okay Resa.�  I was grabbing my purse when Shannon called my name.
�What girl?�
�You know, your birthday is very soon.  You�ll be 23, right?�
�Oh, fuck off Squeaky,� I yelled.  I finished getting my stuff and got off the plane.

�Okay, you guys, I want to throw a surprise party for Resa.  But, you guys have a concert in Austria.  What can we do?� Shannon asked the guys.
�Well, we could always do something at the concert.  Then, like go to the club or something,� Howie suggested.
�Okay, sounds like a plan then.  She�s going to love it,� Shannon said.  The guys nodded their heads and walked off the plane.
�Took you guys long enough,� I mumbled.
�Sorry, we were planning something,� Shannon said, leaning against AJ.
�Whatever!  Come on, let�s go.  We have to get ready for the concert.�
�She�s worse than Fatima,� Nick said.  I turned around and glared at him.
�You are sweetie,� Howie whispered in my ear.
�Watch it baby, you might regret saying that.�  We finally reached the limo and climbed in.
�You really wouldn�t let me suffer would you?� Howie asked, grabbing my hand.  I shrugged my shoulders and rested my head on his shoulder.  I glanced over at Shannon and all of a sudden, got an idea.
�Shannon, a tat.�
�Which kind?�
�An arm band, saying 9 inches.�  She looked at me and both cracked up laughing.
�And then what am I supposed to get?�  I looked at her and at the same time, we shouted �do you think it�s going to fit?�  We busted out laughing again.
�Did we miss something?� Kevin asked.  I finally stopped and looked at him.
�No, another inside joke.  Do you want to Squeaky?�
�Yeah, we�ll get it done.�
�You know, I�m seeing you two in clothes that show off your tattoos.  And I�m wondering what they all mean,� Nick said.
�They�re just either inside jokes or things we love,� I said.  We finally reached the arena and climbed out.  I waited for Nick and smiled when he climbed out.  �If you really want to know, then we�ll tell you later, kay?�
�Yeah, that�s fine.�
�Okay.  Hey Nick?�
�What?�
�Tag, your it.�  I slapped his arm and started running away.
�Hey! That�s not fair.  You bitch,� he yelled.  I finally caught up to the rest of the guys and ran up to Kevin.
�Kevy, stop the mad man.  He�s trying to tag me.�
�Stop girl.  I�m not going to protect you.  You�re a big girl,� he said, moving to the other side.  I stopped walking and just looked at him.
�You meanie.�  I turned around and the next thing I knew, was Nick tackling me and then tickling me.  �Nick, really, stop please?� I begged, squirming.
�God, you two are so immature,� Shannon said, watching the whole thing.
�That they are,� Ramon said, walking into the arena.  Nick finally stopped and helped me off the ground.
�I thought you were going to stay home?� I asked, walking up to him and giving him a hug.
�Roxanne was being a bitch, so I didn�t feel like hearing it,� he said, hugging me back.
�What else is knew,� Shannon said.
�Come on you guys, get your asses in gear,� Fatima said, coming from the arena.  �You guys have a lot of practicing to do.�
�Whatever,� I heard Nick mumble.  We just nodded our heads and followed her to the stage.

I unlocked the door to mine and Howie�s hotel room and headed straight for the bathroom.  Howie knocked on the door.
�Theresa, are you okay?  You�ve been throwing up a lot.�
�I�m fine D.  I just ate something.�
�Okay,� he said.  I heard him going into the kitchen and grabbed something.  I cleaned myself up and looked at myself in the mirror.  �Good Lord, I can�t be having any kids,� I thought.  I sighed and stepped out of the bathroom.  I walked into the kitchen and saw Howie pouring some Sprite for me.  �Feeling better?�
�Yeah, I am.  Thanks babe.�
�No problem sweetie.�  He handed me the soda and we walked over to the couch.  We sat down and turned on the TV.  I leaned my head against Howie�s shoulder and he wrapped his arm around me.  I closed my eyes, a small smile on my face.

I woke up and heard everyone talking.  I walked out of the bedroom and plopped down on the couch.  I noticed Shannon in the kitchen getting something.
�Hey Squeaky?� I yelled.  Everyone just looked at me, slowly stopping their conversation.
�What Resa?�
�Do you think that when a French woman is having an orgasm, she�s screaming qui or yes?�  She walked out of the kitchen , a very amused look on her face.  �And would a Russian scream out da?�  With that we busted out laughing. 
�Well, I know Hispanic�s scream out si,� D said.  I just looked at him and busted out laughing.
�God, you two have a very sick mind,� Kevin said, trying not to laugh.
�Yeah, so?� Shannon and I said at the same time.
�Just think Boo.  You�re with a woman and she�s screaming out qui, qui,� Brian said, laughing even harder.  After a few minutes we finally stopped and tried to get normal breathing going.
