�Shh, chill girl.�  I turned around and looked at Howie.
�You scared the shit out of me.�
�So I could tell.  I�m sorry, didn�t mean to.  I hadn�t realized you were that lost in thought.�
�It�s cool.  So, how is everyone doing?�
�Great.  AJ has been working on that song that you two are doing.�
�Yeah.  I have a few lines in my head and he does.  But we really haven�t worked on it for a while. I�ve been very busy with work and all.  In fact, I have to fly up to New York to do an interview with Will Smith cause that was the only chance he got.�
�Wow.  And does Megan know?�
�Actually, Megan doesn�t really know I know a lot of famous people.  I told her I met a few cause of work, but that�s about it.� 
�Oh, I�m sure she�ll figure it out soon.�
�Oh, I know she will.�  I glanced up at the board and noticed the flight from Missouri was coming in the next ten minutes.  �She�s coming,� Howie said.  I nodded my head, excitement making me all giddy.  �Chill Theresa,� he said, laughing.  I was about to glare at him, but we locked eyes and for some strange reason, I just couldn�t be mean.  �Um, I uh, I think I�m going to head out.  I�ll tell, uh, everyone you said hi and all.  I�ll call you later.�  He got up and walked away, slowly shaking his head as if he had to clear it.  I just shook mine and went to the gate to met Megan.  She stopped off the plane and gave me a huge hug. 
�God, I�ve missed you so much Resa.�
�I know, I know.  I missed you too Megan.�  I picked up her stuff and we went to the go retrieve her bags.  We walked out to my car and she stopped in her tracks. 
�An Expedition?� she asked.
�Of course.  My friend helped me pick it out.  Come on.�  She smiled and climbed in the car.
�Do I get to drive it?�  I looked over at her and smiled.
�Not on your life, sorry.�
�Bitch,� she mumbled.
�You know it.�  We talked all the way to my house.  She got out and stared at my house.  It wasn�t all that huge, two stories, five rooms, three bathrooms.  I think what got her was the color of my house.
�Purple?�
�It would have been black but some friends said to do purple.�
�Who?�
�Just some friends.  Come on, get ready, I�m taking you out.�  She ran into my house and changed and was refreshed in twenty minutes. 
�There.�  I checked out her outfit.  Black paints and a pale yellow shirt.  I grabbed one of my leopard spotted hats and put it on her. 
�There, now you�re ready.�  We climbed into my car and I quickly tore off to McDonalds.  I smiled as I saw Alex�s Expedition there.  We got out and we went to go order. 
�Oh my God, I�m already seeing things,� I heard Megan whisper in my ear.  I glanced in her direction and smiled.  She thought she was seeing Alex and Howie but I knew better.
�Well, what do you want?�  She shook her head and looked at the menu.  I saw Alex look over at us, and started checking out Megan, a smile appearing on his face.  I smirked to myself and did all I could not to laugh.  �Here, order for me, please?�  I told her want I wanted and went in the direction to the bathroom.  �Do me a favor McLean, you don�t know her, you don�t talk to her, this was not how I wanted you to met, kay?�
�Yeah.  Wow, great taste.�
�I figured you would like it.�  I smiled and walked back to Megan, just as she was getting the stuff. She looked back in the direction of the Boys and she shook her head.
�Please tell me, I�m not crazy and that I�m not seeing things.�
�Can�t say that girl.  Come on, let�s eat.�

"Come on Megan. This party is goin� be slammin� so hurry your ass up.�
�Who�s party did you say it was?�
�A friends.�
�You have a lot of friends that I haven�t met.�
�You�ll met them and a lot of my friends, you have seen.�  She just looked at me and we quickly climbed into my car.  Megan had been there for three months already and she still hadn�t met the guys.  It was my doing that happened.  She worked with me at the office, but she hadn�t seen half the people I talk to.  She didn�t even really know that I wrote songs.  I pulled into the driveway, punched in the alarm code and pulled up to a wonderful brick house. 
�You have to be fuckin� kiddin� Resa.  I know this house.  There�s no way you no him, or them, or or or.�
�Shut up already.�  I climbed out of the car and ran into Kevin�s arms.  �Hey you.�  He gave me a big hug.
�Hi.  Is that Megan?�
�Yeah, the one AJ won�t shut up about.�  I turned around and saw Megan climbing out of the car and she slowly walked over. �Megan, met Kevin.  Kevin, this is my Megan.�
�A pleasure Megan.�  She shook his hands and smiled.
�Hi.�  I rolled my eyes and stepped into the house, holding Megan�s arm. 
�WHAT�S UP?�  Nick and Brian turned around and ran over to me. 
�Oh, hi Resa,� Brian said, picking me up and spinning me around.
�It�s Resa,� Nick said, giving me a hug. 
�Hi you two.  Look, I want you to met Megan.  Megan, Brian and Nick.�  She shook their hands and they just looked at each other and than back at her.
�What?� she asked.
�Nothing.  It�s just a pleasure ma�am,� Brian said.  I laughed and looked at her.
�Come on, Megan.  We�re going to leave these freaks alone.�  They looked at each other than finally back at me.  I was walking away when I heard them scream out �What�?  I laughed and went into the dance room.  I looked around and found the man I was looking for.  I walked over to Alex and quickly wrapped my arms around him.  He quickly turned around and looked at me.
�You scared the shit out of me Resa.� 
�I�m sorry.�  He gave me a hug and than looked behind me.
�Hi,� he said, grabbing her hand and softly kissing it.
�Hi.� 
�Welcome to my party.  It�s a pleasure having you here Megan.�  She gasped as he said her name.  �Trust me, I hear a lot about you but of course I had to wait to met the real thing.�  I flashed a smile and let those two be.  I walked outside and stared at the starry sky, not even noticing someone else come out there with me.
