�Just  cuz.  Two beautiful girls here?  We would have noticed you before.�
�Oh so you think that we�re beautiful?� I asked sounding like a complete idiot.  �Is this the club?� I asked changing the subject.
�Yeah.  It looks like AJ and Shannon are here.�

�Thanks so much.  It was totally kick ass,� Shannon said.
�Trust me, it was my pleasure.  I was glad to drive a fine girl anywhere.� AJ said.
�Stop it.  Your such a flirt.�
�Not this time.  I�m just saying what I see, which if you don�t mind, looks good.�
�Oh, I don�t mind.�
�Don�t mind what, Shannon?�  I ask.
�Nothing.  Let�s go dance Theresa.�
�That�s fine with me.  Come on guys,� I say.

�So, Shannon, what did you and AJ talk about?� I asked.
�Nothing important.  He just wanted to know where we�re from and all.  What did you and Howie talk about?�
�The same thing.  Oh, Shannon, the song �All I Have To Give�  is on.�
�Hey, Shannon, can I have this dance?� asked AJ.
�Sure,� Shannon said.  As she was floating away, she just smiled at me.
�You must be lonely.  May I have this dance?� Howie asked.
�I suppose.�
�I never caught you age,� Howie stated.
�Oh, I�m 22 and Shannon�s 21.�
�That�s cool.  Are you guys having fun so far?� Howie asked.
�Oh yeah.  I can�t believe that we�ve been here for an hour already.�
�Time flies.�
�Yeah.�

�So, Shannon, what school do you and Theresa go to?� AJ asked.
�We go to NAU,� Shannon answered.
�That�s cool,� AJ said.
�Wow, it�s already going on eleven?�  Shannon asked.

�Is it?� I asked
�Yeah.  I don�t believe it.  Theresa and I have to get going soon.�
�No, we don�t Shannon,�  I looked at Shannon, pleading with her to agree with me.
�I have the same feeling Theresa, but we haven�t even unpacked yet.�
�Fine.�
�Shannon, can I have your address?� AJ asked.
�Um�sure,  It�s 6520 E.Baberoad.�
�That�s right on the beach.  The whole gang will stop by, okay?� Howie asked.
�Um..that�s fine,� I said.
�Howie, it�s been cool.  Why don�t you give us a call before you stop by?�
�Okay,� Howie said.
�The phone number is 564-2945.  We�ll see ya later,� I said, wishing that I really didn�t have to go.
�Hey, I know that you guys aren�t leaving without giving us hugs,� Howie said.
I reached over and I was in Heaven.  Howie�s arms around me were just wonderful.
�Shannon, I really want to see you again,� AJ said into Shannon�s ear.  Before she pulled away,  AJ gave Shannon a kiss on the cheek.

�Shannon are you okay?� I asked, knowing that she was.  She was just on Cloud Nine.
�Oh, yeah. Why?�
�Cause your cheeks are a little red.�
�No way.  I�ve been blushing?�
�Yeah, it�s okay.  I would be doing the same thing.�
�I�m still in shock.  Let�s unpack and stay forever, okay?�
�I wish we could.  Come on.  Maybe, if we�re not to tired, we can at least try to unpack.�

As I awoke, the sun was shinning.  I felt like it was going to be a good day.  Of course I figured that the guys would have something to do this morning and wouldn�t see us until this night.
�Good morning,� Shannon said.
�Hi. How did you sleep?� I asked.  Of course I already knew the answer.  She, probably like me, didn�t get any sleep.
�Sleep?  I didn�t sleep.  I couldn�t�
�Neither could I.  Just thinking of all that happened.�
�Hey, Theresa?�
�Yeah?�
�What time do you think the guys are going to come over?�
�I really don�t know.  It�s 9:00 now, right?�
�Yeah.  I think like 1:00 or so?�
�Yeah, maybe.  But let�s unpack okay?�
�Okay.  And listen to BSB.�
�I have no problem with that.�

By the time that we were done, it was already going on 11:00.
�I can�t believe it took us that long,� Shannon said.
�I know.  But if you think about it, were also having fun playing around and dancing.�
�True.�  At that instant the phone rang.
�Hello?�  I asked, thinking it was my dad.
�Hi.  It�s Howie.�  I just looked at Shannon and I mouthed �it�s Howie�.
�Hi.  How are you?� I asked.
�Oh, fine now that I heard your voice.�
�Thanks. That really sweet. So, what can I do for you?�
