�Where�s Howie going?� I asked as I sat down.
�I don�t know. He said he�ll be back in like 10 minutes though,� AJ said, throwing in smile.

When our food came back, so did Howie.
�Where did you go?� I asked.
�Oh, I had to go get something,� he said. He put his hand on my cheek and gazed into my eyes.
�Excuse me. I hate to break this moment but you food is going to get cold,� Shannon said.
�What?� I asked.
�Your food,� Shannon said.
We sat there and ate and talked. We needed to get home so we could be ready when the boys went to pick us up at 4:00. We kissed them goodbye.

Shannon and I walked into the house and saw there was a message on the answering machine. I went over and played it. It was Howie saying they got down early. I hit the erase button and followed Shannon into my room. She lifted out her outfit that she got. It was a dark blue skirt with flowers. It had a white tank top and a light blue sheer shirt.
�That�s so cute. I love it. You�re going to let me burrow it right?� I asked.
�Only if I can burrow yours,� she said. I pulled out my outfit. It was a black, short, tight, skirt with dark purple roses on it. The shirt was dark purple.
�You look good in that outfit,� Shannon said as I looked at myself in the mirror.
�Thanks,� I said.
�Let�s get ready,� She said. We went to take our showers and we were done getting ready by 3:45.

There was a knock on the door. I went to open since Shannon was doing some last minute touch ups. Howie walked in and just stopped dead in his tracks. He looked me up and down. He slowly started walking around me. I just smiled as he put his hand on my waist.
�Good God,� he said. �You look damn fine,� he finished.
�Well, thank you,� I said as I pulled him in my arms and gave him a kiss. I hugged him and just whispered in his ear �if you want, we can just stay home�.
�I would love to but I�ve already made plans.� He kissed me passionately and I wished I could stay like that forever but AJ gasping made us break apart. AJ was staring at Shannon. He walked around Shannon, looking her up and down.
�You look like an angel,� AJ said.
�You look good yourself,� she replied. Shannon pulled AJ into her arms and gave him a kiss. They pulled apart and AJ whispered into Shannon�s ear �can I have you tonight�?
�We�ll see,� she said right back. We finally reached the limo where the rest of the guys were. They just looked us up and down. Once again, Shannon and I had left cute men speechless. Nick was the first one to give us hugs and a kiss on the cheek. He told us that we looked very nice. Kevin was the next one to give us a kiss and a hug. He also told us that we looked nice. Brain gave us a hug and whispered in our ears �that if you weren�t taken by my best friends, I would take you�. We just smiled.
�Are we ready to go?� I asked. We all got into the limo.
�Where are we going?� Shannon asked.
�We were just going out. Kevin, Nick, and Brian were going to go out tonight with some friends. Howie had plans for him and Theresa. I had plans for us,� AJ answered.
�Okay. Then what are the seven of us doing before we split up?� Shannon asked.
�We�re going to this museum, then over to this little party. Then we go our own ways,� Howie answered kissing my neck very gently.
By the time we reached the museum it was going on 4:30. We walked to the front door when a whole bunch of girls screamed. We all looked behind us and saw these girls looking at the guys. They rushed up to the guys and asked for their autographs. I noticed one of the girls looking at me. They finally signed all of the autographs and the girls left. I walked over to Shannon.
�Did you remember any of those girls?� I asked.
�Not really. Why?�
�I did. Christina, from the shoot. Once again, she gave me this totally awful look,� I said.

We stayed at the museum for almost two hours.
Shannon stopped at this painting and AJ came up behind her and put his arms around her and just held her.
�Can I take you home now?� he whispered into Shannon�s ear.
Shannon just turned around and kissed AJ. �Later,� she said.

�Hey mi amor,� Howie said, wrapping his arms around my waist. I wrapped my arms around his neck and said �Hi mi corazon.� He smiled and kissed me.
�Can we go home and just stay there? Looking at you in that outfit is driving me mad,� Howie said as he started kissing my neck.
�I wish we could, but no,� I said.
�Hey D. Ready to go?� Brian asked.
�Okay,� he called back.
�Hey Bone. Come on man,� Howie called to AJ.

The party we were going to was being thrown by one of Kevin�s friends. We entered the house as the song �First Night� by Monica came on. AJ grabbed Shannon�s hand. They made their way to the middle of the room and started dancing. Me and Howie soon followed. Three songs later �I�ll Never Break Your Heart� came on.
�Theresa, you know your such a good dancer,� Howie said wrapping me tighter in his arms.
�Thanks. Your not to bad yourself,� I said.
I leaned my head on his shoulder right when AJ started singing. I brought my head up and looked into those brown eyes. Without realizing it, I started kissing him. Then slowly I slid my tongue in his mouth. We finally pulled apart as the song came to an end.

�I have never seen D kiss like that before,� AJ said.
�I know,� Shannon replied.
As the song ended, Shannon looked into AJ�s eyes. She never wanted this moment to end.
