The Low Down on Tesia: Tesia Lenore McLean is A.J. McLean�s 10yr-old baby sister. They have the same father, just not the same mother. Tesia is right now staying with A.J. and the other Boys, and has gone to New York with them, while they do some Backstreet promoting. She is with A.J. because her parents don�t treat her right and call her a �Worthless Brat� who should never have been born, and make sure she knows that all the time. Over the last five or so years that she has joined A.J. on tour, the one security guard working for the Boys has molested and raped her, but the Boys never knew that until just recently when she confided in Marcus, then A.J. and the rest of the Boys. She is on a date with Kevin, as Kevin had promised to take her to lunch the day before, but then she got in trouble and wasn�t allowed to go. They were to meet up for lunch today, but things kept them both apart, so it was decided they�d have a dinner date instead. Luckily for Tesia, her brother hasn�t seen her yet, to punish her for all the bad things she did while with the other Boys during the day. Now, on with the date�

: Marcus picks up the phone and smiles as he hands it to Tesia...

: Tesia takes the phone from him...."Hello?" She says softly, her dress half on....

: "You getting ready..." Kevin asks...

: Tesia smiles...."Yes!" She chirps....

: "I'm in the car now on my way...I'll be there in about 10 minutes..."

: "Yikes!" Tesia says...."I gots to hurry!"

: "Then go on and get ready I'll see you soon..."

: "Kay!" Tesia says, then hangs up....She runs over to Marcus...."Help! Can't gets da zipper!"

: Marcus laughs as he zips the dress..."You have plenty of time..."

: Tesia shakes her head...."Ten minutes ain't long Marcus....An' I gots to find my shoes....Forgets where I put 'em...."

: "Well you better get to looking...Kevin always makes people think they have longer than they actually do...you don't even have 10 minutes..."

: "Ahh!" Tesia shrieks, running around like a chicken with her head cut off, trying to find her shoes....She spots Snoopy starting to chew on one...."SNOOPY!!!! STOP IT!!!! I NEEDS THOSE!"

: Just then there is a knock at the door...

: Tesia shrieks again, and yells at Snoopy to release her shoes...."GIVE ME MY SHOES! SNOOPY!" She chases him and her shoe....

: Marcus opens the door and Kevin walks in then opens his feet as snoopy runs between them and across the room with Tesia's shoe....

: Tesia chases after him...."NOTS READY YET!" She yells, finally cornering the crazy puppy...."SHOE! NOW!" Snoopy cowers in the corner.....

: Kevin laughs watching them...

: Snoopy's tail is between his legs and he's whining, and scared....Tesia sighs and crouches down...."You can'ts eat these shoes Snoopy....You can eat my old ones...." She takes the shoe from him, and kisses his head...."Now find my other one....." Snoopy licks her hand, then runs off to retrieve the other one....

: Kevin just stands there watching the puppy..."You think he'll find it?"

: "Eew...." Tesia says, wiping the doggy slobber off her shoe...."An' he'll find it....He hid 'em...." Snoopy comes trotting over to her then, with the other shoe in his mouth....

: "Very smart boy..." Kevin says kneeling down patting his knee..."Come here..."

: Snoopy drops the shoe and runs over to him.....

: Tesia wipes her other shoe off, puts it on, then darts back to the bathroom to wash her hands, and put a bit more lip-gloss on....

: Kevin pats the puppy..."Hi there..."

: Snoopy yaps and wags his tail.....

: Kevin laughs at him..."I would pick you up but I don't wanna get slime like Tesia got..."

: Tesia finishes getting ready, and comes out in her "Princess" dress, knowing Marcus has the camera. Her dress is a light blue, with white frills around the bottom and the end of the sleeves. The shoulders are a bit poofy, and she's wearing the white gloves that came with it, as well her new white shoes, that have a lil' bit of a heel on them. Her hair is done up fancy at the top of her head in curls, and ringlets are hanging at the side of her face. The white hat, with blue flower that goes with the dress, is lying on the bed with her white purse, which contains all her girl necessities.

: Kevin stands back up and smiles at her..."All ready..."

: Tesia nods, smiling...."Yep...." She looks at Marcus, who has the camera, since this IS her first official date and all...

: Kevin laughs at them..."Serious yes..." he says moving towards her...

: Tesia giggles...."Maybe...." Snoopy yaps and runs about their feet....

: Kevin moves over beside her and kneels down so that he is on her level..."Ok..."

: Tesia grins real big for the camera, totally excited....

: Kevin smiles to then after a few photos kisses her cheek..."Ok we better go..."

: Tesia's grin gets even bigger...."Kay...."

: "Get the rest of your things together while I talk to Marcus in the hall for a minute ok..."

: Tesia nods...."Kay...." She runs over to the bed to get her hat and purse....She carefully sticks her hat on, as not to ruin her hair....She slings her purse over her head and shoulder, and crouches down to tell Snoopy to behave for Marcus....

: Kevin and Marcus walk out in the hall...they talk about where they are going and how long they will be gone then Kevin opens up the door..."Ok ready?"

: Tesia stands back up...."Yep!"

: "Come on then..." he says looking at Snoopy..."Bye pup.."

: "Bye Snoopy! Bye Marcus!" Tesia calls, going over and grabbing hold of Kevin's hand....

: Kevin leads her down the hall and into the elevator. He kneels down again..."You look so pretty..."

: "Really?" Tesia says in disbelief....

: Kevin smiles at her..."Of course...I wouldn't say it if you didn't..."

: Tesia smiles....."Thanks...."

: Kevin kisses her cheek..."My princess..."

: Tesia's whole face lights up, and she blinks back tears....She'd NEVER been called a Princess before....She hugs him tight....

: Kevin hugs her close to him.

: Tesia doesn't say a word, just keeps hugging him.....

: Kevin holds her then kisses her cheek as the doors open..

: Tesia smiles and kisses his cheek back....

: Kevin stands up again taking her hand...

: Tesia holds his hand, still beaming happily....

: Kevin leads her outside to a car he rented for the night...He opens the door for her...

: "Wow...." Tesia says climbing in....

: Kevin closes the door and goes around getting in..."

: Tesia giggles, and squirms around in her seat....

: Kevin just watches her...waiting...

: Tesia cocks her head looking at him, then suddenly thinks of something....Her eyes go a lil' big, and she grabs her seatbelt, yanking it on...."Almost forgots...." She says sheepishly....

: Kevin grins at her..."I think so..." he says starting the car...

: Tesia grins back...."Nots gonna forgets...." She shakes her head slightly...."Makes people mad...."

: "Because we don't want you to get hurt..." Kevin says putting on his own seatbelt...

: "I know...." Tesia says softly....

: Kevin pulls out..."I thought we would do dinner first...then let you decide what to do before we head back..."

: "Kay...." Tesia smiles...."Where we going to eat?"

: "A very nice restaurant...I hope they have something you will like there...it is fancy..." Kevin says shooting her another smile then watching the road...

: Tesia smiles big....She'd never been any place fancier than Pizza Hut....

: Kevin drives a little longer then pulls up in front of a restaurant...a man opens Tesia's door as he gets out then walks around taking Kevin's keys...Kevin walks around to Tesia..."Princess..." he says holding his hand out to her...

: Tesia takes hold of his hand and grins from ear to ear.....

: Kevin leads her inside and to a table in the back...where it was kind of dark...with a few candles on the table...he pulls out her chair for her..."This a good spot?" he asks...

: Tesia's whole face lights up...."Yes!" She squeals slightly...."VERY good!"

: Kevin slides her chair back up as she sets down and sets down in his own chair..."I'm glad you approve..."

: Tesia giggles...."Of course, Silly...."

: Kevin laughs a little taking a sip of his water...

: Tesia takes a sip of her water, as he'd taken a sip of his....

: Kevin smiles at her..."Quiet aren�t you?"

: Tesia gives him a small smile...."Dunno what to say...." She admits...

: "Why not..." Kevin says smiling a little bigger..."It's just me..."

: Tesia shrugs, blushing slightly....Not her fault she'd a HUGE crush on the man sitting across from her, and wanted to marry him....Speaking of which, she wondered if he'd do a PRETEND wedding with her....

: Kevin just shakes his head at her...

: Only way to find out was to ask...."Kevy...." Tesia says softly....

: Kevin gives her a very soft smile..."Yes..."

: Tesia chews on her bottom lips nervously...."Um...."

: Kevin smiles at her..."What?" he asks remembering something he reaches up pulling the ring on the chain around his neck out from under his shirt....

: Tesia smiles when she sees the chain she'd given him...."You 'membered...." She smiled, glad for a distraction from her question....She was SO nervous about asking him for the pretend wedding....

: "I have had it on since you gave it to me...surprised no one has asked me about it yet..."

: Tesia giggles....She was amazed he cared enough...."Cool...."

: Kevin laughs..."Cool...yes well..."

: Tesia just smiles at him....

: Kevin gives her a smile and nods...

: Tesia takes a breath, and decides to try and ask her question again, hoping she can get it out before the waiter brings menus....

: Kevin just sets there watching her...

: "Kevy...." Tesia tries again, only to have the waiter show up with the menus, interrupting her....

: Kevin thanks the waiter and starts to look over his then remembers Tesia was about to ask him something and lays his back down..."Ok ask me..."

: Tesia gives a sigh, that's a mixture of annoyance and frustration...."Um.....where you gonna go after New York?" She asks, deciding she'd best know this first....

: "Home...to Kentucky for a week...then out to LA...�

: "Oh...." Tesia says softly, biting her lip again....

: "There is something else?"

: "Maybe....Sometime....When nobody's busy....can we...." Tesia tries, but trails off, and fiddles with her gloves....

: Kevin gets up and walks around to her side of the table he kneels down beside her chair..."Just ask me...Tesia..."

: "Can we gets married for pretend?" Tesia asks, all in one breath, still staring down at her lap and fiddling with her gloves....

: Kevin puts his hand on her chin making her look at him..."Why are you acting like this with me...you know you can say anything to me....you always have before..."

: Tesia's eyes well up with tears...."Scared you'll say no....An' that nobody will lets me 'cause I'm lil'....."

: Kevin takes her hands pulling her up..."Come out side with me for a minute..."

: Tesia nods quietly, and goes with him....

: Once outside Kevin kneels down to her..."You can say anything to me...ask me anything...please don't be afraid to..."

: Tesia sighs, and bites her lip again, wanting to cry....She wants to ask him so bad, yet is still terrified of the answer.....And, obviously, he couldn't understand her if she rambled it....

: Kevin sighs and just stares at her...

: Tesia still chews on her lip nervously...."I wants us to gets married...." She finally says softly, looking down again....."I know I'm lil an' all, an' everybody's said no....But I wants too...."

: Kevin feels like crap at that moment...not sure what to say he just sighs...

: "Even if it's only pretend...." Tesia adds softly, still looking down and trying not to cry....

: "You're just a little girl and Hunny I'm an old man..."

: Tesia still stares down at her feet, willing back her tears....."You saids that last time...."

: "It will always be that way to me..."

: "Nots even for pretend?" Tesia whispers....

: "Hunny...I don't think it's a very good idea..."

: "Why not?" Tesia asks softly, still not looking at him, but staring at her shoes.....

: Because,...it's so hard to explain this to you..."

: Tesia sighs heavily...."Why's it hard?"

: "Because it's gonna hurt no matter what I say..."

: "But what's so wrong with doing it for pretend?" Tesia demands softly....She wouldn't look at him - she couldn't...."Lots of kids dids if for pretend back home....I wanted to marry a boy too....Buts nobody liked me back an' he gots mean....."

: "Tesia...kids pretend with other kids baby..." Kevin says putting a hand on each side of her face making her look at him..."You understand that don't you..."

: Tesia shakes her head, her tears welling up in her eyes and about to fall...."They never wanted me...."

: Kevin kisses the tip of her nose..."They were stupid then..."

: "There all stupid...." Tesia says bitterly....She wipes at her eyes, not caring about her stupid make-up anymore....."It's all stupid...."

: Kevin makes her stop wiping her eyes..."Not Hunny it's not..."

: "Yes it is!" Tesia says a lil' loud, pain evident in her eyes....

: Kevin drops his head down then...

: "An' it's always gonna be stupid 'cause I'm too lil'! An' NOBODY lil' likes me! I gots cooties!" Tesia says, now wishing she'd never asked to begin with....

: Kevin kisses her face hugging her close to him..."you are a beautiful child."

: Tesia buries her face into him and cries...."Nots to anybody else...."

: "you are to me...and to everyone who loves you..." Kevin says hugging her even closer...

: "Nobody else says it!" Tesia cries...."Everybody else just yells....Only dress up for you, 'cause you say I'm pretty....."

: "Because you are...and right now I wish either I were younger or you were older..." Kevin tells her....

: "Really?" Tesia says softly, pulling back a lil' to look at him...."You'd marry me then?"

: Kevin nods at her...

: Tesia scowls...."NEVER gonna gets married an' have babies then....NEVER....."

: Kevin gives her a weird look not really understanding where that came from....

: "Boys don't likes me....I gots cooties for good...." Tesia explains...."An' I wants you....But that's nots gonna happen....So why bother?"

: Kevin feels like his heart is gonna break he just stares at her...

: Tesia looks at him, then down at her shoes again...."I don'ts wanna be me no more....."

: Kevin stays quiet...just watching her...

: "Wanna be somebody else...." Tesia grumbles....

: "We wouldn't love you if you were someone else..." Kevin makes her look at him again..."Tesia...I love you..."

: Tesia's eyes tear up again...."I knows 'bout somebody lil', who pretend married their Daddy...."

: She kisses his nose...."Loves you too...."

: Kevin smiles at her..."Let me think about that one..."

: Tesia sighs...."Kay...." She looks at him again...."NOW you knows why I didn't wanna ask?"

: "Because you knew what I was going to say...you just hoped it would be something different..."

: "Thoughts it be different, 'cause I asked for pretend this time an' NOTS for real," Tesia says, starting to sound a lil' bitter again....

: Kevin sighs deeply...

: "It's nots fair, an' NEVER gonna be fair!" Tesia complains....

: Kevin just shakes his head...he feels worse and worse with her every reaction to his last comment...he didn't wanna hurt her...he remembered what it was like to have a crush like this one someone older than you when You're young�he was starting to fall in love with Logan and he didn�t wanna even pretend to marry Tesia and have her see him with Logan...

: Tesia looks back at him, still confused about this whole thing....Wasn't fair everybody she'd ever asked had always said no.....First the boy she liked, then another boy, then her Daddy, then her brother, then another boy, and now Kevin - her last hope....

: "You will get married when you are old enough and you will have beautiful kids...but Tesia I'm not the one..."

: "NOTS gonna gets married...." Tesia snaps slightly...."NEVER...."

: "and why not..." Kevin says firmly

: "Don'ts wants to NO more...." Tesia shoots back...."Tired of askin' an' bein' told NO....An' NOBODY's gonna ask me 'cause I gots da COOTIE curse!"

: "You aren�t old enough to get married Tesia don't you understand you have years left for that stuff just be happy being a kid for now...adult things will come later..."

: "You DON'TS gets it!" Tesia says, getting angry. "I GOTS to watch EVERYbody ELSE gets married for pretend from FAR away 'cause I WASN'T invited! An' EVERY time I asks somebody for one, they say NO for ANY reason they gots!"

: "I get it baby...but it's only a game...being married isn't a game..."

: "But I WANTS to play it too!" Tesia says frustrated....

: "When you get old enough you will get married for real...and it'll be right and it'll last your whole life...if you get married too soon...it'll end to soon and it'll hurt more than this....." Kevin says making sure she is still looking at him..."I wish I could give you everything you want in life just hand it to you right now...but I can't...and I'm sorry about that..." Kevin says with tears in his eyes...

: Tesia stares at him, feeling horrible for making HIM of all people cry...."Don'ts cry...." She says softly...."That's my job, Silly...." She smiles at him....She bites her lip again...."Maybe Marcus...." She stops and shakes her head...."No....Thinks he's older then you....Nuts...." She cocks her head...."Think snoopy will marry me?"

: Kevin wipes his eyes a little and laughs at her..."I'm sure he'd love to...but aren�t you a little old for him..."

: Tesia giggles....."Probably....Maybe I can marry Teddy....He's almost as old as me....He's stuffed....But he likes to cuddle...."

: Kevin hugs her close to him again..."Yes I think that will work out nicely..."

: Tesia hugs him tight, and kisses his cheek...."Still loves you....LOTS...."

: Kevin smiles at her.� And I love you to Tesia...I always will..."

: Tesia wraps her arms around his neck...."Can we go back in? I'm hungry...." She smirks....

: "Sure Hunny..." Kevin says kissing her nose before standing up...

: Tesia giggles, and grabs his hand...."Gots to gets back to our date...."

: Kevin agrees and leads her back inside and getting them settled back at their table...

: Tesia checks her make-up once she takes her mirror out of her purse....She giggles...."Make-ups still there...."

: "It's the good kind...doesn't go anywhere..."

: Tesia nods...."Yep....Maybe Lex knew I'd gets upset....."

: Kevin sighs again...

: Tesia slides off her chair and goes over and hugs Kevin...."Smile Kevy....I'm happy you brought me here....An' VERY happy I'm your Princess!"

: Kevin hugs her..."You will always be..." he says kissing her head...

: "Can you be da Prince?" Tesia asks....

: Kevin gives her a soft smile..."Am I?"

: Tesia nods her head yes...."Yes! You always been da Prince....J's da Hero, an' you da Prince...."

: "Ok...then..."

: Tesia skips back to her side of the table and sits down. �It�s nice here�.�

: Kevin smiles across at her..."That's good right?"

: Tesia nods again giggling...."Yep!"....She opens her menu and peeks at it....

: "See anything that you actually know that you like?" Kevin asks...

: "I thinks I found grilled cheese...." Tesia smiles....

: Kevin smiles at her..."Ok we will get you that..."

: "Kay...." Tesia smiles still....."An' can I gets a milkshake?"

: "Sure..."

: Tesia beams...."Gotta be chocolate! It's da best!"

: "Ok then...I think I'll have the same..." Kevin says laying his menu down..

: Tesia giggles, and sets her menu down on top of his....Even if she couldn't marry him, she was going to have as much fun as she good right then....

: Kevin sticks just the tip of his tongue out at her...

: Tesia does the same thing back...."you're Silly, Kevy...."

: "Yes...I know..."

: "Can we go ANYwhere after this?" Tesia asks....She'd a few places in mind.....

: "I told you that we could go somewhere that you wanted after this...but only for a while..."

: "How long we gots?" Tesia asks, cocking her head sideways....

: "A few hours..."

: Tesia nods slightly...."Kay...."

: Kevin takes another sip of his water as the waiter comes back...

: Tesia takes another sip of hers, copying Kevin....

: The waiter ask Tesia what she would like...

: "Grilled cheese an' a chocolate milkshake please...." Tesia says sweetly....

: Kevin looks up at him..."The same thank you..."

: Tesia grins, and takes another sip of her water....

: Kevin copies her this time giving her a sly grin...

: Tesia giggles, almost spitting her water back out....

: Kevin laughs at her...

: Tesia swallows her water, and sticks her tongue out at him...."You made me laugh..."

: Kevin shrugs..

: "What's there to do in New York that's exciting?" Tesia asks....

: "Lots..."

: "Likes what?" Tesia says....

: "Depends on where you are, what you wanna do and what time it is..."

: "Oh...." Tesia says...."There any amusement parks or anything? I dunno what there's to do here...."

: "Not this time at night and I won't be in town after this...I'm going home tomorrow..."

: Tesia's eyes sadden...."Why? Thoughts everybody was stuck here...."

: "No I'm flying out to go home tomorrow..."

: "Why you leaving?" Tesia asks....She'd been hoping for more dates....

: "I haven't been home in awhile and want to get back..."

: "Oh...." Tesia says softly....Her shoulders sag slightly....Now no one would tell her she was pretty - just bad.....

: "I miss it..."

: Tesia sighs, and drinks some more of her water.....She didn't want to make him feel bad again, so just kept quiet....

: Kevin just sat quietly watching her...

: Tesia chews on her lip again, and fiddles with her gloves....She was taking the gloves off to eat later on....

: "Nervous again?"

: Tesia shrugs, not knowing if she was nervous, upset, or both....

: The waiter comes back just then...

: Tesia sighs slightly, and thanks the waiter for her stuff.....

: Kevin does the same then looks over at her again..."If you're not having fun we can go home?"

: "I gots to pee...." Tesia says suddenly, and gets up to go look for the bathroom....She was having fun....Not her fault they kept having awkward moments....She had to get to the bathroom - and fast, as she was about ready to cry again...."Don'ts wanna go...." She mumbled, finally entering the bathroom.

: Kevin sits waiting for her to get back...

: Tesia sits in a stall, and tries to compose herself quickly....She didn't want to waste time in there, as it'd mean less time with Kevin....She finally calms herself down, and goes out to look in the mirror, wiping her eyes, and hoping he won't be able to tell she was crying AGAIN...."I'm a stupid wuss...." She mutters to herself...."Only babies cry likes this...." She scowls, but then thinks of Kevin, and smiles again....She skips out of the bathroom and back to the table....

: "You good?"

: Tesia nods...."Yep....I'm good...." She smiles, as she takes her gloves off and sets them down on the table....

: "Sometimes I wonder if you are really 10..."

: Tesia cocks her head...."J wonders if I'm younger...."

: "AJ doesn't see this though...now does he...�

: Tesia shakes her head...."No...." She scrunches her face up slightly...."Only you gots to see it yet...."

: "You are being very good�This is great...":

: Tesia smiled, liking the praise...."Gotta keeps somebody on my side...." She says, deciding NOT to mention how she'd slapped Nick at the Hospital....thinking of that, she frowns slightly, as she takes a bite out of her grilled cheese....

: Kevin starts to eat letting her last look go...

: Tesia takes another bite, then sets it down, wanting to ask a question she needed an answer too...."Kevy....how much trouble would somebody get into if they....mm....hit somebody they weren't s'pose too?"

: "A lot...I would guess...and please don't talk with food in your mouth..."

: Tesia swallows quickly...."Sorry...." She thinks again...."What's if nobody knew....but them....long as nobody tattled?"

: "As long as no one knows than no one can care..."

: Tesia gives a sigh of relief...."Good...." She goes back to eating her grilled cheese, hoping Nick don't tattle, and that she don't either....

: Kevin finishes and sets drinking his water waiting on her...

: Tesia finishes her grilled cheese, and drinks her milkshake...."Mm....Yummy...."

: Kevin laughs at her..."Yes..."

: Tesia finishes her milkshake...."Now what Kevy?"

: "Up to you..."

: "I dunno...." Tesia says softly....

: "I don't either...Dinner was my idea now you need one..."

: Tesia bites her lip and thinks again...."Mm....What do we gots time for?"

: "We have almost 2 hours left..."

: Tesia scrunches her face up in thought again...."Can we gets a hot pretzel?"

: "Yes..."

: Tesia grins...."Good....Always wanted one...."

: "What do you wanna do after that?"

: "Dunno....Asks me after da pretzel...." Tesia shrugs....

: Kevin laughs at her..."Ok...are you ready to go now...or should we set here a while..."

: "Pretzel's dessert....Dunno what else to do here...." Tesia says, as her eyes light up because she's thought of something...."Kevy? Can we's go dancing?"

: "AH....Well I guess that we can...for a little while..."

: Tesia beams at him...."Kay!"

: Kevin laughs a little..."Alright..."

: Tesia puts her gloves back on, after wiping her hands off, then sticks her hat back on too....

: Kevin watches her then stands up...

: Tesia gets up and slings her purse over her head and shoulder again....

: Kevin just shakes his head at her..."Ok let's go then..."

: Tesia grabs hold of his hand, not wanting to ever let go again...."I'm ready...."

: Kevin leads her back out and to the car...

: Tesia gets in the car, and buckles up immediately, so he doesn't have to remind her again....

: Kevin gets into the car with her...

: Tesia smiles over at him, squirming to get comfortable in her seat....

: Kevin drives a little before pulling over again...

: Tesia unbuckles her seatbelt and gets out, crouching down to fix her shoe....

: Kevin gets out and walks around the car to her...

: Tesia stands back up and grins at him, taking hold of his hand once more...."Any shops open? Or can we only window shop?"

: "I think they all might be closed this time at night...We gotta get that...pretzel"

: Tesia looks at him, wondering why he paused before saying pretzel...."Kay...."

: Kevin walks a little further with her, watching people walk by them...

: Tesia looks at everyone they pass and smiles brightly at them....Some fans see her though, and give her weird looks....

: Kevin laughs a little looking at her..."They know me...but not you..."

: Tesia smirks...."Nobody knows me....'cept one girl 'cause Marcus an' I mets her yesterday...."

: "Ow really?"

: "Yeah....Wasn't s'pose to meet her, but I didn'ts know that...." Tesia shrugs....

: Kevin nods at her..."Yeah...but it's good that he was with you though..."

: Tesia nods...."Always gots Marcus....'Less I makes him really mad again, then he's gonna leave...."

: "He'll never leave..."

: "Almost did this morning when I broke da window...." Tesia says...."Buts I made it right again....Gots no spending money now....But I made J happy....."

: Kevin smiles at her..."That's very good...and I'm sure AJ will give you more..."

: Tesia shrugs...."Don'ts care really....S'pose to be grounded for three weeks, but I dunno what's goin' on now...." She shrugs...."Don'ts care....I still gets to play...."

: Kevin just nods at her...

: "Where's the pretzel stand?" Tesia asks...."I can smell it...."

: Kevin gives her a strange look..."You run around smelling things all the time..."

: "Been playing with Snoopy too much...." Tesia giggles....

: "I think that you have...and it's right up here..."

: Tesia just giggles some more, as they pass more fans....

: "Who are these people..." Kevin says making them sound not human as they walk up to the stand...

: Tesia laughs...."Nosy people!" She declares....

: "Shh..."

: "Whoops...." Tesia says more quietly....

: Some people that heard her give her an angry look but keep walking...

: "Thinks I made more enemies...." Tesia whispers....

: "Ow well..."

: Tesia shrugs too...."Pretzel time!"

: "Yes..." Kevin says handing her one...

: "Thanks...." Tesia smiles...

: Kevin walks over setting down on a little bench...

: Tesia sits next to him, swinging her feet, as more fans walk by, some making snotty comments about her....

: Kevin looks up at them..."Can I help you?"

: The girls give her snotty looks, and smile at Kevin sweetly...."Whose the kid?"

: "This is A.J.�s little sister Tesia..." He tells them...

: Tesia munches on her pretzel quietly....She didn't want to cause trouble....

: The fans eye him skeptically...."Sure you didn't go and have any kids and not tell anyone?" They ask.....

: "And why are you all dressed up?" They demanded....

: "She is on a date with me...that's why..." Kevin says sounding a bit cocky and kind of rude...

: "You date little kids now?" The one snaps...."Since when?" The other one glares at Tesia, who�s still quietly eating her pretzel....

: "I can tell no one ever took you out on a date when you were young kids...now did they..." he snaps back...

: "We went on dates....but we weren't Brats...." The fan retorts..."Homely ones at that...."

: Tesia stares down at her pretzel, not feeling so pretty anymore....

: "You don't know anything so excuse us..." Kevin says standing up..."

: Tesia quickly gets up too, only to have the girl glaring at her steal her hot pretzel right out of her hands...."HEY!"

: Kevin looks at the girls "And then you girls wonder why we don't spend more time with you..." he stands up walking away leading Tesia with him...

: Tesia looks back longingly at her half eaten hot pretzel....It may have been 'just' a pretzel to the girls, but it was special to her because it was her first one ever....The fans yell every name they can think of at Tesia and stomp on her pretzel....

: Kevin goes a little down the street..."Would you still like one..." he asks...

: Tesia nods quietly...."Yeah...."

: Kevin waits a while before going back towards the stand the girls had gone and the man gave Tesia a second one for free because he had seen what happened...

: "Thanks...." Tesia smiles softly, taking a bite out of her new pretzel...."Mm....Yummy!"

: Kevin just laughs at her...

: Tesia grins...."I likes da pretzels...."

: "I can see that..."

: Tesia munches on her pretzel, enjoying it even more now...."Kevy? How come those fans were mean? I didn'ts do nothing...."

: "You didn't have to they just do that sometimes..."

: "Buts why?" Tesia wants to know....

: "I don't know...I have never understood it..."

: Tesia sighs...."Think if I told J I kept quiet, I won't gets in too much trouble tomorrow?"

: "Trouble for what?"

: Tesia looks away sheepishly...."Kinda only been good for you an' nobody else...." She takes another bite of her pretzel....

: Kevin shakes his head at her sighing ..."Well it's up to AJ what he does about that..."

: Tesia shrugs...."Least I gots my date...."

: "Yes..."

: Tesia smiles up at him...."We still gonna go dancing Kevy?"

: "Sure..."

: Tesia smiles even more...."Good....Likes to dance...."

: Kevin nods at her as they reach the car again...

: Tesia giggles as she gets in and buckles up, still munching on the tasty pretzel....

: Kevin drives slowly...traffic had picked up a bit...

: Tesia turns the radio on low, and giggles as Shape Of My Heart comes on...."Always comes on when I turn on da radio...."

: Kevin laughs at her and turns it up a little...

: Tesia grins and sings along, loving to sing along to this song, though Nobody But You was her favourite - which no one knew, nor cared to know....

: Kevin laughs and sings along with his parts...

: Tesia feels even happier, being able to sing with him....When the song ends, she looks at him...."Kevy, how comes you NEVER gets to sing?"

: "What do you mean?"

: Tesia rolls her eyes...."Everybody, even HOWIE, sings more than you do on the CDs....How come?"

: "I don't know..."

: "You needs to sing more...." Tesia says firmly, nodding her head slightly...."Likes hearing you sing...."

: "Well thank you..."

: "Welcome...." Tesia says....

: "I'm gonna do something of my own soon...so I'll sing a lot on that..."

: "Cool!" Tesia says...."I wanna makes a CD too....But J said I gotta wait 'till we're home an' he's not so busy...."

: "That's right...AJ can help you a lot..."

: Tesia nods...."Yeah....Just can'ts go in da studio without him again....."

: "No...you gotta start listening to everything your brother tells you..."

: "I know...." Tesia says softly....

: "Ok...as long as you know..."

: Tesia nods...."Gonna try harder startin' tomorrow....But don'ts think anybody's gonna believe that...."

: "We will just wait and see..."

: "Guess so...." Tesia says softly...."We there yet Kevy?"

: "No....and this traffic...what�s the hold up..."

: Tesia shrugs...."I dunno...."

: Kevin looks over at her..."What?"

: Tesia giggles...."Said dunno what the hold up is, Silly..."

: "Oh...I wasn't actually asking you...sorry about that..."

: Tesia shrugs...."Don'ts matter....Havin' fun anyway...."

: "I am having fun as well..." Kevin says looking over at her..."Find us another good song..."

: "Kay...." Tesia says, and fiddles with the radio....N'SYNC's Pop suddenly blares through the speakers, and she gives a sidelong glance Kevin's way.....

: Kevin glances over at her and clears his throat not saying anything...

: Tesia giggles, and changes the song to Sweet Sin by Jessica Simpson...."Ooh....This one's good!"

: "Better..."

: But...never mind..." Kevin stops before saying what he was about to say...

: "What?" Tesia asks...."You don'ts like this song?"

: "It's ok...just not...never mind I said..."

: Tesia gives him a weird look, and sings along after giving a slight shrug.....

: Kevin focuses all his attention on his driving...

: Tesia keeps singing, then sings Like A Virgin by Madonna when it comes on, then Because Of You by 98degrees.....

: Kevin just watches the road ignoring the songs...

: Tesia grins as Lucky by Britney Spears comes on...."OH! My favourite Britney song!" She chirps....

: Kevin smiles at the change in songs..."It's a nice one..."

: Tesia nods, as she sings...."Yep!....She's so lucky....But she cry, cry, cries in her lonely heart...."

: Kevin just listens...

: The song ends and Tesia looks at him...."Yeesh! By da time we gets there, it'll be time to go back...."

: "I bet that it will..."

: Tesia sighs heavily...."Stupid traffic...."

: Kevin laughs as they pull up and stop..."Yes...it's bad tonight..."

: "Finally!" Tesia exclaims....

: Kevin gets out and goes around to open her door...

: Tesia giggles and gets out...."Thanks...."

: "You're welcome..." Kevin tells her leading her inside..

: Tesia skips along next to him, holding his hand....

: Kevin takes her to a part of the club where people couldn't just come up to them...

: "Wow....It's nice back here...." Tesia says softly, totally in awe....

: "Yes...it's very nice and the best part is that no one can just walk up to us�and be rude..."

: Tesia smiles...."Good...."

: "Yes..." Kevin says setting down in the booth...

: "Why we sitting? Don'ts we dance?" Tesia asks....

: "Go ahead...I'm going to set here for a minute...bad song..."

: "Kay...." Tesia says, running for the dance floor after taking her purse off and setting it on the table....She goes out and starts dancing really good to the song....

: Kevin just sets watching her...

: Tesia does her lil' routine, then runs over to him when the next song starts...."C'mon Kevy!"

: Kevin sets his water down and goes with her...

: Tesia grins and runs out to the dance floor, waiting for the next song to come on....

: Kevin laughs at her..."Ok..."

: Tesia starts dancing again....

: Tesia does her lil' routine, then runs over to him when the next song starts...."C'mon Kevy!"

: Kevin sets his water down and goes with her...

: Tesia grins and runs out to the dance floor, waiting for the next song to come on....

: Kevin laughs at her..."Ok..."

: Tesia starts dancing again....

: Kevin just watched her for a second..

: Suddenly, a slow song comes on....Tesia stops dancing, and stands there unsure of what to do now.....

: Kevin leans down and picks Tesia up..."Now..." he says dancing with her...

: Tesia giggles excitedly....She wasn't used to actually dancing with someone.....

: Kevin laughs at her..."Having fun?"

: Tesia nods happily...."Yeah.....Thinks they need more slow ones...." She smiles innocently....

: Kevin laughs softly and kisses her cheek...

: Tesia blushes slightly and smiles softly....

: Kevin keeps dancing with her through 2 songs before another fast one...he sets her back down..

: "Evil song...." Tesia mutters to herself....She looks up at him and smiles though...."Kevy? What song you likes best?"

: "What do you mean what song do I like best?"

: "What's your favourite song, Silly...." Tesia giggles....

: "Oh..." Kevin thinks for a minute..."I don't really have one...I like a lot of stuff..."

: "Oh...." Tesia says softly....She looks thoughtful a moment...."I'm gonna go to da bathroom....DON�TS go anywhere!"

: �Okay,� Kevin says, then goes back to the table to set down while he waits.

: Tesia goes to the bathroom, then on the way back, requests her favourite slow song....The Hardest Thing by 98degrees starts to play just as she reaches Kevin.....

: Kevin grins at her..."Back so soon..."

: Tesia nods...."Yeah...." She cocks her head at him...."We gonna dance again?" This was her song....

: "Sure..."

: Tesia smiles shyly...."Kay...."

: Kevin holds her hand and leads her away from the table leaning down to pick her up again...

: Tesia hugs him once he's picked her up...."It's the hardest thing I'll ever have to do....To look you in the eyes, and tell you I don't love you....It's the hardest thing I'll ever have to lie....To show no emotion when you start to cry...." She whispered to herself as they danced....

: Kevin hums along to the song...

: Tesia rests her head on his shoulder, wanting the song to NEVER end so she could keep him.....

: Kevin sways slowly holding her close to him...

: Tesia goes quiet, enjoying the moment....She was SO happy she could burst....Why couldn't her Daddy have ever danced with her like this? Why did everyone always have to treat her like crap? She sighs slightly, and hugs Kevin a lil' tighter.....

: Kevin kisses her cheek again as the song comes to an end....

: Tesia smiles softly, and kisses his cheek....She was silently wishing to either turn back time, or for the song to come on again....

: Kevin sets her back down...

: Tesia sighs.....She looks over in the direction of where the music is coming, and wishes for another slow song....

: Kevin looks a little annoyed at the N'SYNC song but doesn't say anything...

: Tesia giggles as It's Gonna Be Me blares from the speakers, and starts doing the exact dance N'SYNC does to the song.....

: Kevin rolls his eyes at her..."Oh...I can't believe you can do that..."

: Tesia smiles...."Yep! Gotta dance if I wanna sing...."

: "I guess you do...but to this song..."

: "I likes N'SYNC....So does Aaron...." Tesia says...."An' he's famous an' Nicky's brother...."

: "Ok..."

: The songs ends, and Tesia looks up at him again...."You sure you gots to go tomorrow?"

: "I really want to go back home...for a little while...Tesia..."

: "Kay...." Tesia says softly...."Gonna miss you....lots...." She ignores the Aguliera song playing in the background....

: Kevin smiles at her..."I'll miss you to...but it'll be ok and we will be together in LA again soon..."

: "Yeah...." Tesia says quietly...."But you'll probably be busy....An' J will be busy with Erin....An', yeah, gots Tonya an' Kara, an' Marcus an' Snoopy, but they're NOT you or J...."

: "Everyone will be at the video shoot together...and you'll have at least one of us at all times...we won't all be shooting at the same time.."

: "DON'T want Howie...." Tesia scowls slightly....

: "And why not?"

: "He don't likes me....An' I dunno if I likes him either anymore...."

: "He likes you..."

: Tesia shakes her head...."Nuh-uh!....I hear him when he thinks I'm not listening...."

: "Ow and what does he say?"

: "I'm a Brat....I lie....I try an' make everybody feel sorry for me...." Tesia says, stating some of what she'd overheard...."I'm only bein' me the way I knows how....Nots my fault Daddy never cuddled me or nothing....Just wanna cuddle all da time....But everybody's always too busy...."

: Kevin kneels down to her..."We are busy and you know that...but when we aren't at least one of us always makes time for you...Even Howie..."

: "But you're da only one who don't gets mad at me all da time....Even when I TRY to be good, somebody always gets mad...." Tesia says softly...."An' I know everybody's trying....But....I just....I feel likes I'm in da way all da time...."

: "You're not in the way...you wouldn't be here if we all didn't want you here..."

: "Kevy? Can people really walk on egg shells around someone? Am I walking on eggshells? I never gots that...." Tesia asks...

: "It means that you are nervous...and worry about what people are gonna say if you make one wrong more...so maybe you are..."

: "I don't likes da egg shells...." Tesia says softly...."Can only talk to you without gettin' in trouble...."

: "Do what you've been doing tonight and you'll be fine..."

: Tesia just shakes her head...."No I won'ts....Everybody else drives me crazy...."

: "Everyone else drives you crazy...you drive them crazy..."

: Tesia giggles slightly...."I try not too...."

: "You have been so good tonight...I really appreciate that..."

: Tesia smiles softly...."Easy bein' good for you Kevy....You're lots of fun an' you just....listen...."

: "Yes...I'm good at that..."

: "You're da BEST at that...." Tesia says quietly...."You're only one whose not busy with some girl...."

: Kevin sighs a little..."Well..."

: "What?" Tesia asks....

: "What?" Kevin asks trying to distract her from that subject...

: "Well what Kevy?" Tesia demands...."I'm da master at changing da subject...."

: Kevin laughs at her..."Never mind...about that..."

: "Thoughts we tell each other EVERYthing?" Tesia asks...."I tell you EVERYthing...."

: "There is a girl now...Tesia..."

: Tesia stares at him momentarily, not saying anything...."So I lost you now too?"

: "No...You'll never lose me..."

: "That's what Nicky said...." Tesia scowls...."An' I lost him to Lex...."

: "Well...I'm not Nick and I don't push people aside for someone else..."

: "It Logan?" Tesia asks....

: "Yes...It is Logan.."

: "She don'ts seem too bad...." Tesia says softly...."Long as she don't tell me nots to cuddle with you...."

: "She won't do that..."

: "Promise?" Tesia asks....

: "I can't promise you that Logan won't do something...she is her own person...but I don't think that she will.."

: Tesia sighs...."Kay...."

: "She is really nice..."

: "She gots to be if you likes her...." Tesia says, then thinks a moment...."That mean I'm nice too?"

: "I guess that it does..."

: Tesia smiles big...."Glad somebody thinks I'm nice....Makes me REALLY happy!"

: "Everyone thinks that you are nice...and every person has different sides of themselves.."

: Tesia looks down...."Nobody but you seen this me....Dunno if they'll ever gets this me...."

: "You're gonna have to start being good though.."

: Tesia sighs...."I know....But.....sometimes....I just....wanna be bad....even if I know I shouldn't...."

: "Well you are going to have to stop that..."

: Tesia sighs heavily...."Can I be good, but still gets in trouble? I don'ts know EVERYthing....Though I likes to think I do...."

: "If you are good then no you won't get into trouble...

: Tesia nods...."Yeah-huh....Everybody gets in trouble if they do something wrong, not knowing it's wrong....Or if they forgets...."

: "Yes...but you aren't suppose to forget..."

: Tesia sighs heavily...."Never gonna gets this right...."

: "You will...you're doing just fine right now..."

: Tesia shrugs slightly...."Nobody's good all da time....An' I likes bein' good for you...."

: "Nobody is good all the time...that's right...but people are only bad every now and then...that's how it should be..."

: Tesia bites her lip...."Wanna be good....Buts nobody gonna believe that now....I saids that yesterday an' gots in LOTS of trouble today...."

: "Then don't say you are going to be good...just start being good...start tomorrow��

: "Kay...." Tesia says...."Buts will J even be around to see me?"

: "You will be going home with AJ and Erin in a couple of days...

: "Buts I wanna see him now...." Tesia sighs....

: "He is off with Erin tonight..."

: "He didn'ts say bye...." Tesia says softly, wanting to cry, as he hadn't said good-bye to her that morning either....

: "Your brother�s mind is all over the place this week..."

: "An' I'm nots on it, 'less I'm bad...." Tesia grumbles....

: "He thinks about you all the time...he is just in work mode you know how he gets..."

: Tesia shakes her head...."Wasn't likes this last time I was with him....He 'membered me more....Lots more...."

: "He's growing up Tesia and he loves you but other things mean a lot to him to now..."

: Tesia sighs heavily...."Hates growing up....Nothing but trouble...."

: "You got that one so right baby..."

: Tesia hugs him suddenly...."Don'ts wanna grow up no more...."

: "Sorry...but it won't stop..."

: Tesia buries her face into his shoulder....

: "It'll all be ok though"

: "How you knows that?" Tesia asks....

: "Because everything always is..."

: Tesia sighs...."We still gots time to dance more?"

: "Sure..."

: Tesia smiles brightly...."Really?"

: "Yes...really...I have some time.."

: Tesia squeals and hugs him again....

: Kevin hugs her back laughing at her..."Ok...that was not good..."

: "What wasn't?" Tesia asks giggling....

: "That squeal..."

: Tesia giggles again...."You made me happy...."

: "Well I'm glad..."

: Tesia drags him back out to the dance floor....

: Kevin goes with her...

: Tesia holds onto his hands and dances, not wanting to let go...

: Kevin holds her hands and watches her..."You're something else little one..."

: Tesia smiles...."How?"

: "How?"

: Tesia nods...."How?"

: "You�re not suppose to ask how....just agree.."

: Tesia giggles again...."I'm weird...."

: "Yes�well all of us are.."

: Tesia grins, still holding his hands and dancing...."But it's a cool weird...."

: "Yes..."

: Tesia smiles even bigger when another slow song comes on....She was liking those ones best right then....

: Kevin laughs as he picks her up again..."I'm glad you're not too heavy.."

: "Me too...." Tesia smiles, kissing his nose...."I likes these ones da best...."

: Kevin kiss her nose in return�

: Tesia smiles and wraps her arms around his neck, locking her fingers, and staring into his eyes as they dance....

: Kevin stares back at her grinning a bit...

: Tesia smiles a bit more, feeling ever so damn happy right then.....

: Kevin kiss her nose again..."This has been fun..."

: "Yeah...." Tesia agrees softly....

: "I'm glad we did this tonight...instead of yesterday..."

: "Why?" Tesia asks....

: "Because we had more time tonight...then we would have had then.."

: Tesia grins...."That's REALLY good then....Would've gots mad ifs we didn't have lots of time...."

: "Yes...that's why I wanted to wait and because AJ said so..."

: "Why'd J say so? 'Cause I was bad?" Tesia asks...."If so....glad he dunno 'bout today...."

: "Yes...because you were bad for Marcus..."

: Tesia sighs, then cocks her head, and looks at him again, hands still linked behind his neck...."Can we do this again sometime Kevy?" She asks softly....

: "Sure...next time we are together we will do this again..."

: "Really?" Tesia asks, her face lighting up some...."We can go on more dates?"

: "Sure...why wouldn't we?"

: Tesia smirks at him...."You're an' old man...." She says cheekily....

: "Yes...I am a very old man Hunny...."

: Tesia shakes her head...."Nots as old as Daddy...."

: "No...not yet...but close..."

: "Nah...." Tesia says...."You'll never catch up to Daddy...."

: "I don't think I can...

: Tesia giggles...."J'll never catch up to you either....Or me him...."

: "No...we are always gonna be the same distance apart..."

: Tesia kisses his nose...."I'm always gonna be a Princess, right?"

: "Sure...even when you're 90.."

: Tesia laughs...."If I'm 90, how old will you be?"

: "If I'm still around...112 or something like that...

: "You'll be around Kevy...." Tesia says, nodding as though sure of herself...."You're NOTS going NO where....Won'ts let you...."

: "That's good to know...thank you..."

: "Welcome...." Tesia beams happily....She hugs him as the slow song starts to end....

: Kevin hugs her..."I love ya kid..."

: "Loves you Kevy...." Tesia whispers.....

: "I know that..."

: Tesia smiles...."Thinks everybody does...."

: "They do...�

: Tesia rolls her eyes as another fast song comes on...."Why can'ts they play all slow ones?"

: "I have no idea...Hunny why don't you ask them..."

: Tesia shrugs...."They're nots gonna listen to me....I'm lil'...."

: "They won't listen to me either and I'm not little..."

: "I can try...." Tesia says.....

: "I'm cute...."

: "That always works..."

: Tesia nods, and squirms down out of his arms..."Be back!" She runs off to where the disc jockey is, and talks to him for a bit....

: Kevin sets back down shaking his head at her...

: Tesia giggles, as she's handed a microphone, and gently pushed up on stage....Reba McIntyre's 'One Promise Too Late' comes on, and she smiles over at Kevin....

: Kevin smiles back at her...

: Tesia stares at him as she starts to sing...."I could have waited forever. If I'd know that you'd be here. We could've shared our lives together, and held each other close all through the years. But I met someone before you. And my heart just couldn't wait. So no matter how much I adore you, I've got to stand behind the promise that I made...."

: "Where were you? When I could've loved you....Where were you? When I gave my heart away....All my life, baby I've been dreaming of you....But you came along, one promise too la-a-ate....You came along, one promise too late.....

: Kevin watches her...

: Tesia keeps singing to him....Once the song ends, she giggles and runs back over to him grinning her lil' butt off.....

: "That was very nice...thank you...Kevin says hugging her

: Tesia hugs him...."That's my fave country song...."

: "I don't listen to that a lot...so I just now heard the song for the first time..."

: Tesia grins...."Can we have a song Kevy?"

: "Sure if you want..." Kevin says kissing her cheek...

: Tesia nods...."What song?"

: "You pick..."

: Tesia shrugs...."I dunno....Right Kind of Wrong....One Promise Too Late....All I Have To Give....hehe....Nobody But You.....This I Promise You...." She giggles mentioning the N'SYNC song....

: "Ow no..."

: Tesia smirks...."Then helps me pick...."

: "Nothing N'SYNC...or us..."

: Tesia bites her lip and thinks harder...."Right Kind of Wrong?"

: "Sure...good choice..."

: Tesia smiles and kisses his cheek...."Nice to have gots a song...."

: "Yeah.."

: Tesia crawls into his lap, and sits with him....

: Kevin wraps his arms around her..."Ok..."

: Tesia snuggles into him.....She was getting tired, but did NOT want to admit that for the world.....

: Kevin sighs and kisses her cheek..."Should we head back to the hotel?"

: Tesia shakes her head no....No way was she going back....If they went back, it meant he was leaving faster.....

: "Ok..."

: Tesia smiles softly...."We gots time to do anything else?"

: "I don't know...what else to you want to do?"

: "Any place safe to go for a walk or something?" Tesia asks....

: "I don't know...after that scene earlier"

: Tesia scowls...."Stupid fans....Gots to ruin everything...."

: "Now Tesia..."

: "What?" Tesia says looking up at him....

: "Don't say that...it's not nice...�

: "Nots all are stupid...." Tesia says softly, trying to make it right...."Just some...."

: "Just some...a very few..."

: Tesia shrugs...."Dunno....Only ever met one nice one...."

: "It's hard when you're a girl...the jealousy thing"

: Tesia shrugs again....."Guess so....I gets jealous....."

: "So do they...That's all that was really wrong with those girls today.."

: "Buts why are they jealous of me? Not likes I can keeps yah...." Tesia says....

: "They are jealous because you get to spend time with me and they don't..."

: "Don'ts they know up 'till now I didn't gets to see you either?" Tesia asks softly....

: "No...and they don't care about that...all they see is you with me now..."

: Tesia rolls her eyes...."Thinks me an' fans gots some things in common....I thinks da same thing 'bout J an' Erin...."

: "They feel just like you do...except they think they are in love with us..."

: Tesia giggles...."That's Silly...." She pauses as she thinks of herself...."Kay....Maybe nots so Silly...."

: "See...."

: Tesia sighs and stares down at her hands...."I needs J to gets me some more jewelry....Gots nothing to fiddle with but gloves...."

: "Yeah...I used to have something..." Kevin says sliding his hand into his pocket to make sure it's still there...

: "Yeah? What happens to it?" Tesia asks....

: "I had to take it off..."

: "Why?" Tesia asks....

: "Because...when you aren�t married anymore you can't wear the ring.."

: "Oh....Right...." Tesia says, looking sort of puzzled...."You say so...."

: "It's just something that people do..."

: "Oh...." Tesia nods.....

: "So...where did you wanna go anyway?" Kevin asks trying to change the subject again...

: "Dunno....Just for a walk...." Tesia says with a sigh, wishing she'd had jewelry to toy with....

: "Ok...then lets go somewhere..."

: "Kay...." Tesia smiles softly...

: Kevin moves his knees bouncing her a little..."I can't really walk with you on me..."

: Tesia giggles and stands up, grabbing her purse and putting it back on....

: Kevin stands up and waits for her before they head outside...

: Tesia takes hold of his hand and grins up at him....

: "We do have to be heading back after this though...I'm sorry but I have to get up really early...I won't forget to say bye before I leave..."

: "Kay...." Tesia says softly...."What can we talks 'bout?"

: "Anything you want..."

: Tesia blushes immensely and looks away....NO way was she asking HIM her questions....She'd save them and shock the hell out o her brother....

: "What�s that look for..."

: "Nothing...." Tesia says quickly, shaking her head....

: "What...you can tell me..."

: Tesia's eyes go big...."No way!....I'm too lil' to be thinking probably...."

: "Uh Oh...What do you mean exactly..." Kevin asks hoping he wasn't right...

: Tesia gets a sheepish look on her face....

: Kevin walks along then...growing very quiet...

: Tesia sighs, not liking the awkward silence...."Said I'm too lil'...."

: "You probably are..."

: "We learned some of its in school...." Tesia says softly...."But I gots kicked out....."

: "Ok..."

: "Never say 'Eew', or 'Gross'.....Makes teacher mad....." Tesia whispers....

: "It's not eww or gross Tesia..."

: "Kevy....you didn'ts see all da blood...." Tesia says...."THAT'S gross...."

: "Blood...what are you talking about?"

: "Only saw the girly stuff...." Tesia answers....."Gross....Don'ts want it....Ever...."

: "Ow...that...well Hunny it'll happen..."

: "Nobody's ever told me that...." Tesia grumbles....

: "It happens to every female in the world babe..."

: "Why?" Tesia asks...."Don't guys gets anything icky?"

: "Well...no...not that I know of..."

: "How come? That's not very fair...." Tesia points out....

: "I know but that's just how it is..."

: Tesia sighs...."Ask more questions....But I'll keeps 'em for J...."

: "Ok...fine with me then..."

: Tesia looks up at him...."We gots time for another pretzel?"

: "If you want then I guess so..."

: Tesia nods...."They're yummy!"

: "Then I guess we can swing by and get another one..."

: "Yay!" Tesia cheers....

: Kevin laughs at her..."Alright..."

: Tesia giggles and smiles up at him....

: Kevin gets her another one...and one for him to this time...

: Tesia grins and munches on her pretzel....

: Kevin looks down at her..."Having fun still?"

: Tesia nods and giggles......

: Kevin gives her a small smile as they reach the car...

: Tesia sighs...."We gots to go back now, huh?"

: "It is getting pretty late...and Marcus is going to wonder where we are..."

: "Thoughts everybody broke curfew...." Tesia says softly....

: "We actually already have..."

: "Oh...." Tesia says quietly.....

: "Sorry..."

: Tesia shrugs, now gone silent....

: Kevin opens her door...

: Tesia gets in, not saying a word, and munches on her hot pretzel.....

: Kevin gets in and turns toward her..."What..."

: "Just...Don'ts really wanna go back...." Tesia whispers...."Know we gots to an� all eventually....An' I know you gots Logan to gets too....But I just - I still don'ts want too...."

: "Why...don't you wanna spend some time with Marcus..."

: "Yeah....But I'm gonna be withs him rest of da time we're here....J's gonna keeps goin' off with Erin....An' I'm nots gonna gets to see you for a bits...." Tesia explains....

: "That's true..."

: Tesia nods...."Yeah...." She pauses...."You an' Marcus given me more attention than anybody....Nobody else would wanna go on a date with me 'cause girls would bitch...."

: Kevin laughs a little..."Yeah well that happens.."

: Tesia scowls slightly...."Think they're jealous?"

: "Nah...They just miss us..."

: "I missed you too...." Tesia points out....

: "I know...and it's like that for them as well...but only more...it's something I can't explain to you..."

: Tesia sighs...."Never gonna gets nothing everybody does...."

: "Ow you will..."

: "Nots anytime soon...." Tesia grumbles....

: "No...when you get to be my age maybe..."

: Tesia sighs again, and buckles up...."If we gots to go....go...." She sticks her pretzel back in her mouth, not wanting the night to end EVER...."

: "I don't want you to be like that..."

: "Be like what?" Tesia asks, a tad grouchy....

: "Like this..."

: "Sorry...." Tesia mumbles....

: Kevin just sets there looking ahead then...

: Tesia unbuckles her seatbelt, as they're not moving yet, and moves so she can hug him...."Don'ts mean to be so grouchy, Kevy....I don'ts.....This was da BEST night of my life EVER!"

: Kevin hugs her..."I know you don't mean to be grouchy and if it was up to me I'd keep you out all night..."

: Tesia gives him a small smile...."An' give J gray hairs?"

: "He's already getting them...I'm sure..."

: Tesia giggles...."That's my job....I think...."

: "That is your job and everyone else�s as well.."

: Tesia giggles again...."Yep...."

: "Yeah..." Kevin says looking at her belt..."Ok we are going now..."

: Tesia sighs and sits back down, re-buckling her seatbelt...."Nots good at stalling, huh?"

: Kevin laughs at her as he starts the car..."No...AJ needs to teach you more about that...he's the master..." he tells her as he pulls into traffic again...heading back for the hotel...

: Tesia giggles, and sings along to the radio, trying hard not to fall asleep....

: Kevin glances over at her from time to time...noticing how tired she looks...

: Tesia rubs her eyes when she thinks he's not looking....She wanted to stay awake and keep their date going for as long as she could....But, damn....She'd worn herself out from being bad most the day, and then dancing.....

: Kevin heads back to the hotel...moving a little quicker now that traffic had slowed down again...

: Tesia stifles a yawn, and finishes singing along to her song on the radio.....

: Kevin keeps looking over at her...

: Tesia rubs her eyes again, getting frustrated that she was so damn tired....She wanted anything, BUT to be tired....

: Kevin pulls up in front of the hotel...

: Tesia pouts slightly, and rubs her eyes again....

: Kevin turns off the car and just sets there for a while...

: Tesia looks over at him curiously....

: "So..."

: "What?" Tesia asks...."I dunno whats to say....Other than I DON'TS wanna go to bed...."

: Kevin leans over kissing her cheek before getting out of the car...

: Tesia smiles brightly....She gets out and stretches, hiding her yawn....

: Kevin shakes his head a little and picks her up again kissing her cheek once more..."Upstairs with ya..." he says heading inside...

: Tesia giggles, and rest her head on his shoulder...."Don'ts wanna sleep...." She grumbles slightly...."Wanna stay up an' keep you...."

: "No one said you had to sleep..." Kevin says as he gets into the elevator..

: Tesia yawns...."Wants you to stay...." She's starting to get teary-eyed....

: "I'm going too..."

: "Really?" Tesia says, lifting her head up to look at him.

: "I can stay a while..."

: "Thoughts you said you had to go?" Tesia says....

: "I do...but...I'm not in a rush..."

: Tesia grins and kisses his cheek...."All mine...."

: Kevin laughs at her..."For a little while..."

: Tesia rests her head back down on his shoulder...."Mine...." She whispers....

: Kevin carries her from the elevator to the room he knocks and Marcus opens the door...

: "Hi!" Tesia smiles, head still on Kevin's shoulder...."I'm keeping Kevy for a bit...."

: Marcus nods at them..."I'm gonna head out then...I'll be back soon..." he says leaving the room...Kevin sets Tesia down on the bed..."Get changed into your pajama's ok..."

: "Kay...." Tesia says, then grabs her pajamas and runs into the bathroom to change....She could change in front of ANYone, BUT Kevin....She didn't know why, it was just the way it was....

: Kevin sets down on the side of the bed...

: Tesia comes back out moments later in her pajamas....She puts her dress away, then runs over to Kevin....

: Snoopy's sleeping on the floor by the radiator....

: Kevin picks her up again setting her in his lap...

: Tesia giggles...."Now what?"

: "Hummmm..." Kevin says pretending like he's thinking...

: Tesia giggles again, and messes his hair....

: Kevin kisses her cheek..."I don't get all weird about my hair..."

: "I know...." Tesia smiles...."But I likes it...."

: That's fine...

: (ok )

: Tesia smiles...."What we gonna do? Just sits here?"

: "I think someone kept yawning in the car and I'll stay with you until you fall asleep..."

: Tesia blushes slightly....."Never yawned....Was singing...."

: "Sure you didn't..." Kevin says turning to lay her down on the bed...he stretches out beside her...

: Tesia rolls over and lies on top of him, like she'd always done since she was small....She rests her head on his chest and listens to his heart beat....."Loves you...." She says softly, trying not to stick her thumb in her mouth.....

: "I love you to Hun..." Kevin says wrapping his arms up around her...

: "Always gonna be Prince, an' Princess, right?" Tesia says softly....

: "Right..."

: Tesia smiles and snuggles into him slightly....�Thanks for my date Kevy....Had LOTS of fun...."

: "I had fun too...it was a very good night."

: Tesia nods slightly...."VERY good....J would be proud....I thinks...."

: "He really would be..."

: Tesia smiles big...."Good.....Wanna makes him proud...."

: "I'll be sure and tell him how good you were..."

: "Thanks...." Tesia says softly....."Maybe it'll make everything else I did nots so bad....Nobody gets my reasoning....An' why dids I just use a big word likes that? Yeesh...."

: "That was a good choice of words actually..."

: "Really?" Tesia asks...."Nots good with words...."

: "Yes that was good..."

: Tesia smiles, and gives a small yawn....

: �Tired?�

: "Nuh-uh...." Tesia says, shaking her head against his chest, as they lie there....

: Kevin just lays quietly...

: "Kevy? Can we plays a game or something, then lie here?" Tesia asks quietly...."I really don'ts wanna sleep yet...."

: "What do you wanna play..."

: "Um...." Tesia trails off, thinking...."Think I gots Nintendo....Or cards...."

: "Either one sounds good to me..:

: "Nintendo...." Tesia giggles...."That's more fun...."

: "Sure...I do this with Nick a lot..."

: Tesia grins, and rolls off him, sitting up...."C'mon! I gots Ninja Turtles!"

: Kevin sets up on the side of the bed�

: Tesia grabs the controls and sets the Nintendo up....She hands him one...."I'm Raphael...."

: "Ok..."

: Tesia giggles and starts to play....

: Kevin watches her at first to see how to play...

: "Easy....See?" Tesia says....

: Kevin smiles over at her..."Yeah easy enough..." he says as he gets the hang of it...

: Tesia giggles again, and plays fine, until her turtle starts dying...."Shit! No! Gets back there stupid! Fight! Fight! Kick his ass!"

: Kevin looks over at her..."What?"

: Tesia snaps out of her little trance and looks at him...."Wha?"

: "Language...My goodness..."

: Tesia's eyes go a lil' big and she blushes slightly...."Whoops...." She's totally embarrassed, as that was one thing she'd NEVER wanted for HIM to hear....

: Kevin just goes back to playing like nothing happened...

: Tesia goes quiet, and starts playing again, but is willing tears back�.Tiredness and sheepishness is catching up to her....

: Kevin keeps his mind on the game but still glances over at her from time to time...

: Tesia finally gets up and goes to the bathroom....Her tears had finally started to fall....She closes the door, sits on the floor, and leans against it....She'd locked it too...."Stupid idiot I am...." She grumbles...."Now he knows....Didn'ts want him to know....Damn...."

: Kevin sets back up on the side of the bed...

: Tesia rubs at her eyes angrily-she's mad at herself - A) for cussing in front of Kevin, & B) for crying.....She chokes on her swallow then, and gags slightly....

: Kevin moves over to the door..."Hey?"

: Tesia gets a drink of water, then answers...."Yeah....?"

: "Come out now..."

: Tesia splashes water on her face, scowling when she sees you can tell she was crying, because her eyes are red and puffy...."Ruins everything, I do...Dammit...." She grumbles....

: Kevin hears her through the door and sighs deeply walking back over to the bed...

: Tesia unlocks the door, and shyly comes back out....She stands next to the open door, prepared to hide again, need it be so....

: "Come on..."

: Tesia quietly goes over and sits next to him again....

: Kevin slides his arm around her..."What's wrong now?"

: Tesia buries her face into him...."You weren't s'pose to hear all that....Nots you....Don'ts care if everybody else does....Just - nots you...."

: "Then why did you say it..."

: "I gots caught up playing....Gets mad when I play sometimes...." Tesia says softly, face still hidden in his shirt....

: "I've heard worse...and said a lot worse..."

: "But - it's just - " Tesia sighs, giving up trying to explain....He was her biggest crush....though everyone thought it was Nick....She didn't want him to know her other side - bad enough Nick no knew that side of her....She keeps her face buried into his shirt....

: "It doesn't matter...you just forget about it ok..."

: "Kay...." Tesia says softly....She looks up at him, as more tears have started to fall...."You're nots mad?"

: "No...what do I have to be mad about..."

: Tesia shrugs...."I saids bad words...."

: "And like I told you Hunny I've heard worse and said worse...If it bothers you that I heard you say them...then try to stop saying them all together then they won't just slip out...when you're around me.."

: Tesia looks down again...."I try hard nots too....But I gets mad an' they slip out....Daddy said them WAY too much...." She giggles suddenly...."Mommy always told him to shut-up when he did...."

: Kevin laughs to..."Yeah...my parents did that a lot to...Moms are just like that.."

: Tesia giggles again....."It was funny....Buts I'm nots s'pose to laugh....Hehe...."

: "You can laugh...cause it's funny.."

: Tesia grins and kisses his cheek...."Feels better now, I do....NO more stupid tears....They're sissy...."

: Kevin kisses her cheek..."No they aren't.."

: "Really? Was told they were....An' I cry too much...." Tesia says, blushing slightly from the kiss.....

: "People cry...it's just normal.."

: Tesia smiles slightly...."Almost made you cry earlier....If you can cry, guess it's okay...."

: "I cry...so does your brother...so yeah..."

: Tesia smiles...."You're not sissy's....." She hugs him tighter....

: Kevin hugs her back..."Well thank you..."

: "Welcome...." Tesia smiles...."Can we lie down again? I just - wanna lie there...."

: Kevin lays back on the bed..."Sure..."

: Tesia lies on top of him again, resting her head on his chest...."I likes lying with you....You're comfy...."

: Kevin laughs a little..."Well thank you...I think that's a good thing.."

: "Yep....It is...." Tesia giggles, and stifles another yawn....."Very good thing...."

: Kevin rubs her back with one hand and her cheek with the other..."Ok.."

: "You'll be Awesome Daddy some day, Kevy...." Tesia tells him.....

: "I hope so..."

: Tesia nods slightly...."You will...."

: "Hopefully I will..."

: "Will you sings? Please?" Tesia asks softly....

: "What song?"

: "Nobody But You...." Tesia answers...."That's my favourite...."

: Kevin laughs softly and takes a deep breath before starting to sing the song from the beginning...

: Tesia smiles happily, and closes her eyes, clinging to him tightly....She didn't want him to go, even if she did actually fall asleep.....She just hoped for no more nightmares....

: Kevin keeps singing and softly rubs her back...

: "Loves you...." Tesia murmurs sleepily....

: "I love you too Hunny..." Kevin whispers before going back to his singing...

: Tesia listen to him sing, and slowly falls asleep, her fists still clinging to him tightly even then....

: Kevin keeps singing until he finishes the song...even with her sleeping...

: Tesia sleeps soundly for a bit.....But soon starts to have a nightmare.....

: Kevin lays awake watching her sleep...

: Tesia starts to squirm in her sleep, struggling with him slightly...."Leggo...." She mutters.....

: Kevin lets go of her and still stays quiet watching her...

: Tesia squirms some more...."Leggo! Leggo! Leggo!" She cries, still asleep....

: Kevin shakes her a little to try and wake her...

: Tesia tries to squirm away from him, but suddenly bolts straight up, so that she's now sitting on him, and stares down at him through tears.....

: "See it's just me..."

: Tesia breathes heavily still, and wipes at her eyes....

: Kevin just watches her...

: "J gots security?" Tesia asks through her breathing.....

: "No...He's with Erin..."

: Tesia runs her hand over her face, trying to compose herself...."Wasn't in da dream....He wents somewhere an' gots hurt...."

: "Well...he's fine...he's with Erin and they aren't going out anywhere so don't even worry�it was only a dream.."

: Tesia rubs her eyes...."Dreamt you gots hurt too...."

: "Well I'm great as you can see"

: Tesia sighs....."Yeah....."

: "And I'm just fine...nothing bad is going to happen.."

: "Stills scary dream though...." Tesia says softly, looking down at him....."Someone gots me too...."

: "The only one that has you is me..." Kevin says rubbing her face...

: Tesia smiles softly...."Glad it's you an' nots somebody scary....."

: "I can be somebody scary.." Kevin says growling and tickling her a little...

: Tesia giggles, and squirms slightly...."Nah....Nots you...."

: "Might very well be though you never know..."

: Tesia shakes her head...."Nots you....Never seen you mean...."

: "You never will either...If I have anything to do with it..."

: "Promise?" Tesia asks softly...."You're only one I ain'ts ever made mad...."

: "It'll be hard for you to make me mad...doesn't happen that often or that easy.."

: "Good...." Tesia says...."Don'ts plan on making you mad...."

: "Very good then..."

: Tesia nods and smiles at him...."Always gonna be good for you...."

: "thank you I appreciate that a lot..,."

: Tesia smiles again...."I feels good, knowing that make you apprre-appreci-happy...."

: "Ummm..."

: "Wha?" Tesia asks...."It was a BIG word...."

: "Can't you say it though?"

: Tesia shakes her head no...."Nuh-uh...."

: "Try this appre..."

: "Appre...." Tesia repeats....

: "Ciate.."

: "Ciate....A-ppre-ciate....Appreciate!" Tesia says, happy to have gotten the word....

: "Very nice..."

: Tesia beams proudly....."Appreciate da help!" She giggles....

: "That's cute baby..." Kevin says smiling up at her...

: Tesia grins even more...."Wish I could go withs you....Have SO much fun....No offense to Marcus...."

: "It's ok..."

: Tesia sighs....

: "and I'm sure he wouldn't take offence..." Kevin adds..

: Tesia smiles softly at that....."He's cool....Buts....He's nots you....Or J...."

: "No one is me or your brother...or Marcus or you...everyone is their own person..."

: Tesia nods...."I know....But it's fun to pretend I'm someone else...."

: "It's fun when you're little but when you're older you will get comfortable being you and you won't ever wanna be anyone else..."

: Tesia blushes slightly...."Pretend I'm you an' sing....I do that 'cause it makes me feel important....An' I do it where no one can finds me....Daddy hate me singing...."

: "Pretend you are an old man...that must be so much fin..." Kevin says with a sly grin...

: "Your nots old...." Tesia says, coking her head slightly...."Old is Daddy....An' it's fun being you....You're important...."

: "I'm not that important Hunny..."

: "Yes you are...." Tesia says, nodding her head...."LOTS of people love you....even if it's just for music...."

: Kevin smiles at her..."So innocent..."

: Tesia shrugs...."Music's good...."

: Kevin gives her a bigger smile..."We try..."

: "You do good job....REALLY good job...." Tesia smiles back...."I'm da one whose gonna hafta try....Nobody's gonna like me 'cause I'm withs you guys....Or they'll only likes me 'cause I'm J's lil' sister...."

: "Well that's something that happens to everyone...a lot of people didn't like us either...we had to earn fans..."

: "Buts you didn't gets called someone's lil' siblings...." Tesia points out...."Aaron's known as Nick Carter's lil' brother....I'm gonna be called, A.J. McLean's lil' sister...."

: "Well Aaron has done well though...and not just because he's Nick's little brother I'm sure his young fans don't give Nick a second thought..."

: "Maybe...." Tesia says softly...."Buts Aaron's a boy....Girls like boys more 'en girls...."

: "Well I guess..."

: "Buts I can sings....I can...." Tesia says, nodding again...."J said I'm real good...."

: "You are...and you'll do well..."

: "How do you knows that?" Tesia asks...."I'm scared, buts wanna do it REAL bad...."

: "Everyone is scared even I was in the beginning and even now...when it's something new I'm afraid people won't like it..."

: "Buts EVERYbody likes you guys...." Tesia says...."Least, people I knows do...."

: "And a lot of people will like you...they didn't always like us.."

: "Hopes they likes me for music....Nots 'cause of J...." Tesia says...."An' NOBODY back home is gonna be my friend now....They can kiss my butt!....."

: Kevin laughs at her..."No one back home is gonna be your friend now...what?"

: Tesia looks away casually, not saying a word...."Doo....Doo....Doo...."

: "What?"

: "What, What?" Tesia says....

: "What do you mean Nobody back home will be your friend now?"

: "Nots gonna lets 'em....Only gonna wanna be friends 'cause of J an' you an' others....An' 'cause I'll be famous an' stuff...." Tesia says...."They didn't likes me before, so I'm nots gonna likes 'em now...."

: "That's right...you have to be very careful of people...they will be friends with you just because they see you on T.V...."

: Tesia scrunches up her nose...."Kara an' Tonya likes me....Kara does anyway...." Tesia says....

: "I'm sure Tonya does as well..." Kevin points out...

: "We fights a lot...." Tesia says....

: "Yes...but Tonya is different it takes her time usually.."

: Tesia shrugs...."Maybe...."

: "I know...It took me forever to get Tonya used to me..."

: "You? She didn't likes you?" Tesia says in disbelief..."She Crazy?"

: "She was afraid of me..."

: "Why?" Tesia asks...."I'm nots...."

: "I don't know for sure...I just know that it took me along time to get her to talk to me or hug me or anything..."

: "That's weird...." Tesia says...."Everybody wants to hug you...."

: Kevin smiles at her and nods..."Well not her...she would go in another room when I came over..."

: "Wonder why...." Tesia says....

: "Like I said I have no idea...you'll have to talk to her about that when you get back home..."

: "Gonna...." Tesia says....

: "When you do let me know...I'm still in the dark about that...:

: "I will...." Tesia says nodding.... "An' I'm in da dark 'bout lots of things...."

: "Thank you..."

: "Welcome...." Tesia smiles....

: "And no all you have to do is ask...we will tell you anything..."

: "Nuh-uh...." Tesia says.....

: "Why no?"

: "I'm too lil'...." Tesia says....

: "You can ask anything...little or not...you're gonna find out things the right way...or the wrong way..."

: "What's J's Mr. Wankie then?" Tesia says...."An' if Erin moves in....how come I can'ts just run into his room no more, 'less I knock?"

: "That is A.J.'s umm..." Kevin thinks a second then says..."Male part...and you can't run in because they might not be dressed..."

: Tesia looks at him slightly puzzled...."Male part? Nots dressed? Wha? Why?"

: "Male part...Tesia you know what I mean by that...and you don't wanna see your brother naked, do you?"

: Tesia giggles...."J's seen me naked...."

: "That's different you're just a little girl..."

: "But why's it different?" Tesia wants to know...."I don'ts see Kara or Tonya running around naked...."

: "Because they are too shy to...It's different for them..."

: "Why?" Tesia asks.....

: "They haven't had things happen to them like you have..."

: "So?" Tesia cocks her head...."I don'ts care 'cause of everything that happened?"

: "You aren't shy...they are..."

: "I can be shy....." Tesia says softly...."Am 'round you...."

: "That's good..." Kevin says smiling warmly at her...

: Tesia smiles back softly...."I didn'ts think you'd still be here...." She admits....

: "Why not?"

: Tesia shrugs...."Thoughts you would've gone to see Logan....Everybody usually leaves when I sleep...."

: "I'm going to have to be going soon...but I have a little time..."

: Tesia leans down and kisses his nose, then sits back up again, still on him, and stares at him...."If J lets me sing....Will you do a song with me Kevy?"

: "Sure...:

: Tesia beams down at him...."Hehe...." She giggles....

: "Could be fun..."

: "Always fun when I gots you...." Tesia smiles....She frowns slightly then...."J's nots as much fun as he used to be....But you ain't changed...."

: "I was already who I am now when you met me...AJ was young and he's changed as he's grown up..."

: Tesia sighs with a pout...."Nots fair....Liked him way he was...."

: "Well...it happens Tesia we all grow up...

: Tesia stares down at her hands that are fiddling with his shirt....

: "What..."

: "I don'ts like everybody stealing you an' J....I hads to wait FOREVER to see you...." Tesia says softly, still looking down and fiddling with his shirt...."Gots date with you....BEST EVER!....Buts I only see J when I'm bad, even if he keeps sayin' ifs I'm good he'll play with me....Buts we only had ONE pillow fight...."

: "Didn't he take you to the park this morning?"

: "Yeah...." Tesia answers, still staring down...."Buts he didn't play withs me...."

: "I know that to..."

: "Why wouldn'ts he play?" Tesia asks, glancing up, then back down again....

: "Because he has a lot of things to sort out first..."

: Tesia sighs....."Am I one of 'em?"

: "Yes..."

: "How?" Tesia asks, looking up again, but still fiddles with his shirt....

: "AJ is young and he's trying to learn how to be both a brother and a father to you..."

: "Why's he gotta be a Daddy too?" Tesia asks...."Daddies aren't very fun...."

: "Because...he has to finish raising you now...and he has to do it right...so you will turn out to be a good woman someday.."

: Tesia makes a face, sticking her tongue out...."Blech....Don'ts wanna be woman....Mommy's a woman...."

: Kevin laughs as he sticks his tongue out at her..."One day you will be one..."

: "Don'ts wanna be...." Tesia grumbles....

: "Tough...you can't stop that..."

: "Can too...." Tesia says a bit snippy.....

: "I wanna see you try..."

: "Know lots of ways to stops it....Mommy told me....Was s'pose to stops it....Buts I gots sent to J instead 'cause I didn'ts wants too...."

: "What did you mommy tell you?"

: Tesia stares back down at his shirt...."I'm a worthless Brat....She tolds me to do its, in lots of ways....But when I asked if J could go too, she said he can't goes with me, so I saids I didn'ts wants too...."

: "What do you mean?"

: Tesia wipes her eyes, as she's started to cry...."She saids to....to takes too much tylenol....or hides head under pillow for long time....an' other stuffs I don't 'member...."

: Kevin just nods at her..."Ok..."

: "Nots goin' NO where withouts J...." Tesia says, wiping her eyes again...."NO way....'Less I can goes with you...."

: "You mom was wrong..."

: "'Bouts what?" Tesia asks, still rubbing her eyes....

: "Everything that she said to you..."

: "Even the stuffs 'bout J nots wanting me if I'm too bad?" Tesia asks softly...."Ifs I goes home, I'm in BIG, BIG, trouble Kevy...."

: "You won't go home...he knows what happened there and he would never send you back to that"

: "Still scared....Whats if Daddy comes to gets me back 'cause I'm singing?" Tesia says...."He'll gets me back then, an' J won'ts be able to stops him...."

: "That's why AJ wants you to wait..."

: "Wait for what? He makin me waits to sing, nots just 'cause he's busy?" Tesia asks....

: "He has a plan and he wants to wait for you to sing until after he gets some things worked out so your parents can't just how up and take you..."

: "Oh...." Tesia says...."I can waits then....NOTS going home....EVER...."

: Kevin smiles up at her..."Not if we have anything to say about it..."

: Tesia smiles back...."Good....Gots to stay with my heroes...."

: "I'd find new ones If I were you Hunny..."

: "Why?" Tesia asks...."Likes my heroes...."

: "Once you're around us enough you'll see that we aren't anything special.."

: "You're always gonna be special....Well....maybe nots Howie...."

: "Tesia...now that isn't very nice..."

: Tesia sighs heavily...."Well, he's nots very nice to me....Dunno why y'all call him Sweet D....He's nots sweet...."

: "You just need to get to know him and spend more time with him that's all..."

: "Don'ts think I wanna...." Tesia says looking down...."Nots a Howie fan...."

: "Were you ever?"

: Tesia looks away...."Kay....I likes Howie....lots....But he don'ts want me around...."

: "Why don't you talk to him about this..."

: "'Cause I'm scared he'll gets mad at me...." Tesia says softly....

: "He won't if you 2 just talk..."

: Tesia sighs....."Can try...."

: "You don't understand him and he doesn't understand you...that's why the 2 of you don't get along well..."

: "Maybe...." Tesia says...."Liked to understands him...."

: "He's not hard to understand once you know a little about him.."

: "I know he likes purple...." Tesia giggles....

: "Yes...very much..."

: Tesia smiles...."Maybe I can gets him something purple....

: "Possibly...or make him something..."

: "Thinks he'll likes it?" Tesia asks hopefully....

: "Sure..."

: Tesia smiles....

: "You think of something and tomorrow before I leave I'll deliver it for you...if you'd like...or you can do it yourself...whatever you want..."

: "Let's you do it....He might nots let me in...." Tesia giggles....

: "I bet he would..."

: "Maybe...." Tesia says softly....

: "He hasn't always been this way with you remember?"

: Tesia smiles...."Yeah....He used to likes me...."

: "I bet that he still does..."

: "Think so?" Tesia says�

: "If he didn't then he wouldn't even be in the same room with you ever..."

: "Maybe...." Tesia says softly...."Buts Daddy don't likes me, an' he goes in da same room...."

: "Well he's a different person.."

: Tesia just shrugs...."You're nots gonna gets in trouble for staying, are you?"

: "No..."

: Tesia smiles...."Good!" She exclaims...."Likes havin' you here! You REALLY gots to come visit once we're all back in Cali...."

: "I will be around so much that you will get tired of me..."

: "No I won'ts...." Tesia says...."NEVER gonna gets tired of you....You'll gets tired of me first...."

: "I doubt that..."

: "I don'ts....Everybody gets tired of me...." Tesia says softly....

: "I never will..."

: "Promise?" Tesia asks...."'Cause I thinks J will soon....� � �An' I'll needs somewhere to goes then...." She adds.....

: "He won't..."

: "Yes he will...." Tesia nods...."He's nots gonna wants a Bratty lil' girl livin' with him...."

: "You are getting better though..."

: "Nots really...." Tesia says, looking down and starting to fiddle with his shirt again...."Nots after everything that happened today...."

: "I'm sure it'll all be ok...

: Tesia just shakes her head no and fiddles with his shirt...."J's gonna gets mad an' yell....An' then I'm gonna gets mad an' yell....An' then J's gonna gets madder an' spank....An' I'll be da one gettin' spanked...."

: "Then don't yell back at him just set there and listen...you are the child you shouldn't raise your voice to your brother.,.":

: Tesia rolls her eyes...."Can'ts help it....Used to yellin' ats him...." She pauses...."Shouldn't shove him either, huh?"

: "NO..."

: Tesia rolls her eyes again...."Been there, done that, moved on...." She says sarcastically...."Hard nots to shove yah brother....Nots my fault he's older....."

: "He is your father too and you are going to have to listen to him...

: "Buts what ifs I don'ts want too?" Tesia says with a slight whine, and a little bit of a pout....

: "You have to..."

: Tesia sighs heavily...."Nobody else gots to listen to their brother all da time...."

: "Yes but no one else is Tesia now are they..."

: Tesia grumbles...."Fine....Buts I'm NOTS going to school withouts him...."

: Kevin laughs at her..."Ok..."

: "I don'ts wanna goes to school....But J's gonna makes me...." Tesia explains slightly....

: "He has to..."

: "Buts why?" Tesia says....

: "Because the law says that kids have got to go to school.."

: Tesia scowls...."I don'ts like school...."

: "What kid does..."

: "You DON'T gets it!" Tesia snaps some...."I'm NOT likes da other kids! They're NOT called liars all da time! An' their brother's AREN'T Backstreet Boys!"

: "It doesn't matter who you are they still say that you have to go to school and AJ will go to jail if you don't and don't raise your voice to me..."

: Tesia goes to snap back, but clamps her hands over her mouth...."Sorry...." She says softly, looking down again...."Didn'ts mean too...."

: Kevin just nods at her..."That's fine..."

: Tesia gives a small sigh of relief...."How comes J gets mad so fast?" She asks...."You don't gets mad fast as him....Marcus don'ts either...."

: "It's just his way..."

: "Well, I DON'TS like it...." Tesia says firmly, then thinks...."That why I gets mad fast too? 'Cause he does?"

: "Well I guess it's cause your dad gets mad easily and you both got it from him..."

: Tesia scowls...."Do NOTS wanna be likes Daddy!....Ever!"

: "Then stop..."

: "Buts how?" Tesia asks....

: "You know you don't wanna be like him...then just don't do the things that he does...

: Tesia sighs, and fiddles with his shirt some...."Do you thinks I'm likes Daddy, Kevy?" She asks....Heards J say I am...."

: "I think sometimes you do things like he would do..."

: "I don'ts mean too...." Tesia whispers.....

: "Then you need to think about all the things he does...the things that you don't like and then not do them...it's not hard Tesia you aren't a baby you know what is right and what�s not.."

: Tesia scowls...."Buts sometimes the things that are fun, aren't good....An' I likes those things...."

: "Like what?"

: "Exploring da park....Running naked - but I gets why I can'ts do that one...." Tesia says...."Spying....An' other stuffs...."

: "Spying on who?"

: "People...." Tesia shrugs...."Dunno....Ain't done its in a while....."

: "If you could spy on any person in the world whom would you spy on and what would you hope that they were doing at the time..."

: Tesia scrunches her face up to think a moment...."You...." She says finally...."An' you'd be singing an' playing your piano in your underwear.....Or just your pants...."

: "In my underwear...oh my god..."

: "What?" Tesia says....

: "And that from a 10 year old..."

: Tesia shrugs...."I likes you without a shirt on....An' your underwear's likes your bathing suit, Silly...."

: "Ah ok..."

: Tesia nods....

: Kevin smiles up at her..."K..."

: Tesia smiles back at him...."Kevy....if you were my Daddy, an' I was bads for you like I was for everybody else today....whats would you do?"

: "Probably exactly what everyone else does..."

: "What?" Tesia asks....

: "You'd be punished but with me you wouldn't get to turn around and do things..."

: "How come?" Tesia wants to know....

: "Because...you learn from being punished...I think..."

: "Buts if J did that....I wouldn'ts been able to goes on my date...." Tesia says softly....

: "Then it would have just had to be that way..."

: Tesia scrunches up her face...."Glad it's up to J then...." She says...."Woulds I least be able to sit, if it were you?"

: Kevin just shakes his head no at her...

: Tesia's eyes go big...."REALLY glad it's up to J then....J wouldn'ts do that....I hope...."

: Kevin just laughs at her...

: "Nots funny...." Tesia says, sticking her tongue out at him...."You thinks he'll do that, Kevy?"

: "I don't know baby he might..."

: Tesia shudders...."But that's gonna hurt lots...."

: "Then be good...it all comes back to the fact that if you be good nothing will happen..."

: "Buts even if I'm good for you an' Marcus now....I was still bads for everybody else....REALLY bad...." Tesia points out....

: "What you do now...will make things you did before better..."

: "Thinks so?" Tesia asks...."Thinks maybe J won'ts spank me too much then?"

: "I don't know now...I can't tell you that..."

: Tesia sighs and looks back down...."Don'ts like nots knowing...."

: "I can't tell you what he will or won't do so..."

: Tesia sighs again, and resumes playing with his shirt...."How mad was J when you talked to him?"

: "He wasn't because then you hadn't done anything bad..."

: "Oh...." Tesia says softly...."Dunno if I really wants to know anyway....Already scared 'nough...."

: "Don't be scared...he's not going to kill you..."

: "He's still scary when mad...." Tesia whispers...."An' I don't likes him yellin' ats me...."

: "Don't give him anything to yell about...that's all I can tell you..."

: Tesia sighs again...."Try nots too....Too many rules...."

: "No there aren't too many rules..."

: "Yes, they're are...." Tesia argues....

: "No...you just don't want to listen..."

: Tesia rolls her eyes...."Ifs you say so...."

: "And...don't do that..."

: "Why not?" Tesia says....

: "Because I don't like it..."

: "Fine...." Tesia says with a small huff....

: "Don't do that either..."

: Tesia rolls her eyes again, then makes them go big...."Whoops...." She says, Trying to sound innocent, and covers her eyes.....

: "Yeah...uh huh..." Kevin says sounding slightly annoyed..

: Tesia moves her hands from her eyes, then leans down to kiss his nose, and sits back up smiling brightly at him...."Gots you, Silly...."

: "Ok...haha..."

: Tesia giggles...."Don't gets mad....Gets even...."

: "I'll think on that one for a while..."

: Tesia smiles...."Kay....I gots all night...."

: "I don't have though..."

: Tesia pouts....

: "I'll call you every night though..."

: "Promise?" Tesia says softly, staring at him....

: "Why else would I have said that..."

: Tesia shrugs...."I dunno....Lots of people say things you wanna hear....even on rainy days they'll tell you da sky is clear...."

: "Very nice...that's a good song actually..."

: Tesia giggles...."I know....Brian dids good job on it...."

: "Yeah..."

: "Likes yours better though...." Tesia smiles....

: "Thank you...so do I..."

: Tesia giggles...."Know why I likes you best?"

: "No why?"

: Tesia gives him a warm, genuine smile...."'Cause you always listen to what I gots to say, an' are LOTS an' LOTS of fun, an' you sings real good too...."

: "Well thank you again..."

: Tesia smiles...."Welcome....Again...."

: Kevin smiles up at her...

: Tesia yawns...."Whoa-oh...."

: "Tired?"

: Tesia shakes her head no...."Nuh-uh...."

: "Ok then don't yawn..."

: Tesia giggles...."Try nots too...."

: "Yawning means your sleepy...if you aren't sleepy then you shouldn't have to try not to yawn..."

: Tesia shrugs...."If I'm sleepy, you're gonna leaves soon...."

: "I have to leave soon anyway Hunny..."

: Tesia pouts...."Nots fair...."

: "I can't help that..."

: Tesia sighs...."Wish I could keeps you...."

: "Yeah...I wish you could too..."

: "Really?" Tesia says, with a small smile...."You'd lets me keeps you?"

: "Yeah...I'm enjoying myself..."

: Tesia kisses his nose again...."Glad somebody enjoys my company...."

: "We all do...or we all will if you keep acting like this..."

: Tesia smiles happily...."I'm happy....Last time I was this happy, J gots me Snoopy...."

: "So now I'm a puppy?"

: "No...." Tesia giggles, shaking her head...."Just....Snoopy's da last thing that made me this happy...."

: "Oh ok that sounds better.."

: Tesia nods...."Yeah...." She pauses...."Mm....Thanks?"

: "Huh?"

: Tesia rolls her eyes...."Thanks for making me happy, Silly...."

: "Don't roll your eyes silly..." Kevin says tickling her a little...

: Tesia giggles and squirms some....

: "You can never escape...don't try..."

: Tesia squeals with laughter...."Aha!"

: Kevin stops tickling her and just gives her a nod...

: Tesia cocks her head and stares at him again....."Why'd you stop?"

: "Because..."

: "'Cause why?" Tesia says.....

: "Cause you're a mean kid..."

: Tesia rolls her eyes again and sticks her tongue out....."Am nots...."

: "Sure you are look at you..."

: "Whats am I doing wrong?" Tesia asks....

: "I don't know you tell me..."

: Tesia shrugs...."I dunno....I'm just a lil' kid...."

: "Yes...ok..."

: Tesia lifts the bottom of his shirt up slightly, and pats his tummy....."You gots a nice tummy....Mine's pudgy....."

: "Work on it then..."

: "Somebody said its baby pudge...." Tesia says...."I'm still lil'.....Ain't I s'pose to have lil' bits of pudge?"

: "Why sure...I suppose so..."

: Tesia shrugs...."I don'ts know....." She pats his tummy again...."J's gots one like yours....."

: "Yes...I know..."

: Tesia smiles....."I 'member playin' with J's belly button when I was littler....."

: "Do you?"

: Tesia nods....."Yeps.....Also 'member him gettin' in trouble for takin' me to da park......" She shudders....."Don'ts think I'd seen Daddy so mads before that....."

: Kevin just nods to show that he's listening...

: "He hits J....." Tesia whispers....."I gots scared an' ran to hide, an' J gots in even more trouble.....'cause of me.....I always gets him in trouble....." She looks down at his tummy.....

: "Well not anymore..."

: "Buts I can ifs I don'ts listen an' people wants me gone.....An' Daddy's always gonna gets pissy....." Tesia sighs.....

: "No one cares about him anymore..."

: "Kay....." Tesia says softly......"Kevy?" She still looks down......"I needs a hug....."

: "I always need another..."

: Tesia smiles and lies back down on top of him to hug him again....."You can use a hug every day, but aren't likely to gets one...." She says, quoting him somewhat......"Kevy.....you're gonna gets lots an' LOTS of hugs now.....That's my job.....Kay?"

: "Ok...thank you..."

: "Welcome...." Tesia says smiling, as she snuggles into him some more....

: Kevin hugs her...

: "Glad I gots you an' J an' Marcus....An' Snoopy....." Tesia says softly...."Know you won't lets nobody hurt me...."

: "You know that...then that's a good thing..."

: "Really?" Tesia says skeptically....

: "Yes..."

: Tesia sighs happily...."Sure you can'ts stay here withs me for the rest of da week?"

: "No...I could if I wanted too but I miss home..."

: Tesia sighs heavily....."Least you gots a home to miss.....An' how come I can'ts go with you, huh?"

: "Because this trip is just for me to get myself back together..."

: "But can'ts I help?" Tesia asks.....

: "You help everyone does...but this is something that I have to do..."

: "Oh...." Tesia says sadly.....

: "Sorry..."

: Tesia sighs again....."Nothing to do 'round here, with J always goin' off with Erin....or yellin' ats me....."

: "I can't help that either Hunny..."

: "Just wants him to stay an' play....." Tesia whispers......"Wanna play likes we used to.....NO other girls 'cept his Mommy around......Erin's nice.....but I wants J back....."

: "The way AJ acts and talks...I think that Erin is here to stay for a very long time.."

: Tesia's shoulders slump......"You're all I gots left.....'less Logan stays around too......"

: "Well Logan is going to be staying for as long as I want her to..."

: Tesia scowls slightly, glad she's lying on him, so he can't see her face....

: "I really like her a lot Tesia..."

: "I know....." Tesia says softly....."Does Marcus gots a girl too?"

: "No...He doesn't have time..."

: "Good....." Tesia says, a little bitter...."Least I didn't lose someone...."

: Kevin just shakes his head at her�

: Tesia hugs him tighter......"Really wish I could goes with you, Kevy....."

: "I know and I'm sorry about that..."

: Tesia feels lost and hurt, and without realizing it, pops her thumb into her mouth.....

: "What are you doing?"

: "Sucking my thumb...." Tesia whispers, taking it out of her mouth momentarily.....

: "What on earth for?"

: "Just-'cause....." Tesia shrugs....

: "Well you shouldn't you are to big for that..."

: "No I'm nots...." Tesia says stubbornly....

: "Yes ma�am you are..."

: Tesia shakes her head defiantly...."Am nots...."

: "Don't start this with me I won't argue with a 10 year old...I'll just leave..."

: Tesia's eyes well up with tears....Wasn't her fault she sucked her thumb....It was Raul's....He told her to keep it quiet, and that was how she kept quiet and got hurt less.....She rolls over and off him, now just wanting to curl up and cry.....

: "Why do you really do that?"

: "Keeps my quiet....." Tesia whispers softly......"Don't gets hurt really bad if you's quiet....."

: "Well why do you have to be quiet...I thought we were going to talk?"

: "I sucks on it, if I gets upset or scared or feels bad....." Tesia says softly, rolling over to look at him again...."I can'ts help it.....I just do it....."

: "But Hunny you are to big too do that..."

: "I knows that....." Tesia says, looking down, still lying next to him....."Buts if Raul comes back, gots to 'member to keeps quiet....."

: "He is never coming back..."

: "I hopes not...." Tesia whispers....."He did its once when everybody was in da next room.....An' I couldn'ts scream without gettin' hurt, so I sucked my thumb....."

: Kevin just shakes his head...

: Tesia climbs back on top of him, sitting on him once more, and stares down at him...."Thinks I likes it here best.....You gots a new job, Kevy...."

: "Yeah and what is that..."

: "My pillow...." Tesia smiles innocently.....

: "Ok..."

: Tesia giggles....."You likes da new job?"

: "Sure...it's easier.."

: Tesia smiles even bigger....."If its easier, then why don'ts I goes everywhere with you, an' you can keeps doing your new job...."

: Kevin laughs at her..."Very nice try..."

: "Was, wasn't it?" Tesia smirks.....

: "Yes is was..."

: "There anything I CAN say to gets you to lets me goes with you?" Tesia asks softly....

: "No Hunny I'm afraid not.."

: Tesia looks down pouting....."But I wants to go too....."

: "I know you do..."

: Tesia keeps her head down, but glances up at him, still pouting.....

: "I know you wanna go but Hunny I can't take you this time..."

: "You never takes me...." Tesia says....."Every time you goes away, I gots to stay here...."

: "With your brother is where you belong Tesia..."

: Tesia sighs....."Ifs I belong withs him, how come he's never around?"

: "He has too much going on right now...He will be ok in a while..."

: Tesia sighs....."Hopes so...."

: "Yeah so do I..." Kevin says sighing deeply...

: Tesia gives him a small smile...."Glad you had time for me.....VERY glad....."

: "I make time for people as much as I can...

: Tesia leans down again and kisses his nose....."Love you....VERY much....."

: "I love you to Hun..."

: Tesia beams down at him happily...."I likes you lovin' me too....." She says...."Makes me feels good...."

: "That's what I'm here for..."

: Tesia giggles....."Good....."

: "I think sometimes though I try to make to many people happy at once and forget about me..."

: "How can you forgets about you?" Tesia asks...."Makes no sense...."

: "Sometimes you can try so hard to make others happy that you get sad..."

: "Buts why would you gets sad?" Tesia asks...

: "It's just something that happens to people sometimes..."

: "Oh.....Did its happen to you?" Tesia wants to know...."'Cause I can makes you happy, Kevy...."

: "Yes it did and Hunny I know that you wanna try..."

: "Then how come I can'ts go too, an' helps you gets happy?" Tesia says.....

: "Because being home is gonna do that for me...I hope..."

: Tesia sighs again, her shoulder sagging some...."Just wants to help....."

: "I know you do...but this time you can't..."

: Tesia lies back down on top of him, resting her head over his heart...."Can'ts you be strong? Likes you were, when you used to helps J chase da Boogie Man away?"

: "I had help then...help that I don't have anymore..."

: "What's kinda help?" Tesia asks....

: Kevin grows quiet then thinking....

: "Well?" Tesia presses....

: "I had a strong beautiful woman to help me..."

: "Oh...." Tesia says, still listening to his heart...."Can'ts your Mommy help?"

: "She'll try...she's part of the reason why I have to go home..."

: "Least you gots a Mommy, who wants you....." Tesia whispers....

: "Yeah..."

: Tesia yawns....."Nots sleepy....Hehe...."

: Kevin yawns to..."Not sleepy..."

: Tesia giggles....."Yawns are contagious...."

: "Yes they are..."

: Tesia yawns again....."Will you sings again, please?"

: "Sure...what song this time?"

: "I Wants It That Way....." Tesia murmurs.....

: "Ok then...let me see if I remember the words..."

: "Kay...." Tesia giggles....

: "Nope forgot sorry..."

: "Kevy! You can'ts forgets it!" Tesia exclaims....."Its your guys' song!"

: "I really did forget..."

: Tesia sighs....."How can a Backstreet Boys forgets da best song EVER?"

: "And why can't we..." Kevin says giving her his cocky grin...

: Tesia lifts her head up and giggles when she sees his face...."You're crazy...."

: "I have been told that a lot in the past..."

: "Really?" Tesia says....

: "Yes...really..."

: Tesia giggles...."Cool...."

: "You don't really think I'm crazy though...do you..."

: "A good crazy....." Tesia smiles.....

: "Ok...if there is such a thing..."

: Tesia nods...."Yep....There is...."

: "ok...good.."

: Tesia smiles...."Now what can we talks 'bout?"

: "I have no idea...I thought you knew all this stuff..."

: "Knew whats stuff?" Tesia asks....

: "Knew all the things that we are suppose to talk about..."

: "I don'ts know everything Kevy.....That's your job....." Tesia says....

: "You're suppose to know everything...because I sure as..." he stops himself then starts over..."because I surely don't..."

: Tesia giggles...."Sure you do.....You knows WAY more than me....."

: "You could have fooled me..."

: "How?" Tesia says.....

: "Never mind..."

: Tesia sighs..."Ifs I can tells you anything, how come you can'ts tell me anything?"

: "Because..."

: "Because why?" Tesia wants to know....

: "Because the things I can't tell you are things that you wouldn't understand even if I did tell you..."

: "Oh....." Tesia says softly....."But how comes you know I won't gets it?"

: "you are to young.."

: Tesia scowls....."Hates when people say that 'cause they don'ts wanna tell me things....."

: "Hunny...it's because you don't need to hear some things..."

: "Likes what? Everybody says I don'ts need to hear things.....Buts I never know which things.....I hear more than people thinks....."

: "Ok then...what do you hear.."

: "Everything....." Tesia says.....

: "Tell me some of the things..."

: "Why J gots so mean before.......Why you gots sad.......Why I always gotta share my brother with everyone......" Tesia says....

: "Ow..."

: Tesia looks up at him.....

: "Why did they say J got so mean then?"

: "Daddy said it's 'cause he's stupid an' a screw-up an' a mother-*ahem*......" Tesia answers......"Buts Marcus said it's 'cause of something I tooks a sip of yesterday, that was gross....."

: "Marcus was right...that always makes people bad...now why did they tell you that I got sad?"

: "Daddy said 'cause you're no better than J an' lost da hoe you were with....." Tesia says, then asks...."Kevy, what's a hoe?"

: Kevin closes his eyes pushing his anger back before looking back at her..."That's when a lady isn't a very nice person and spends time with too many different guys..."

: "Oh......Why would she wanna do that?" Tesia asks.....

: "For fame or money...or just because she thinks she can't do anything else..."

: "Oh....." Tesia nods....."I thinks that's mean....."

: "It is very mean...but she wasn't one...your daddy was very wrong to say such a thing..."

: Tesia shrugs....."Daddy said a lot of things 'bout you guys......"

: "I'm sure that he did...but you know a lot of it wasn't true right.." Kevin adds

: "I didn't likes hearing it......" Tesia states......"An' I don'ts believe Daddy.....He said J don't loves me, but I knows he does....Else he wouldn't of let's me comes stay with him......"

: "Right...he doesn't know us...he doesn't even know your brother...so he has nothing to say that is true at all..."

: "Said J won't gives him any money.....Know that's true....." Tesia says....

: "That is true...he didn't do a thing for AJ so why should he give him anything now..."

: "Daddy says 'cause he helped create him or something....." Tesia answers, then shrugs....."Now why are you sad?"

: "I thought you knew..."

: Tesia shakes her head.....

: "I lost someone that I loved very much and still love and it's hard to let go..."

: "Oh.....Like J lost his Gramma?" Tesia asks softly.....

: "Yes...like that..."

: "Oh....." Tesia says, then looks at him...."Why do I gots to share J with everybody?"

: "We all have to share everyone in our lives with other people..."

: "Nots as many as me...." Tesia says....."I gots you guys, Erin, fans, J's Mommy....Everybody!"

: "We have to share him with all those people to..."

: "I don't likes sharing Kevy...." Tesia admits quietly....."I really don'ts......An' NOTHING'S ever gonna change that!"

: "Well...you'll always have to share so I don't know what else to tell you..."

: "You hads a Gramma, right?" Tesia says.....

: "I did everyone did at least once...Actually I had three..."

: "What are they like?" Tesia asks...."I only 'member J's a lil' bits....."

: "They are like moms but a lot more fun...because they let you get away with way more..."

: "Oh....." Tesia says, looking down again....."Nots gonna gets one, am I?"

: "No Hunny...you can't not unless you take Erin's mom..."

: Tesia sighs sadly....."Wants a nice Mommy, an' a Gramma....."

: "I wish I could help you with that Hunny...but I can't..."

: "Can anybody helps me?" Tesia wants to know....

: "No Hunny...We can't make new people..."

: Tesia sighs and looks back down sadly....."Nots fair.....Everybody else gots these people, an' I gots crap....."

: "There are other people in the world that have no one at all..."

: "Oh....." Tesia says....."Everybody I know gots somebody...."

: "You have somebody...you aren't completely alone..."

: Tesia smiles slightly....."Gots J....An' Snoopy.....An' Marcus.....An' you.....right?"

: "Yes...and you got Nick and Brian and A.J.'s mom..."

: "An' Howie?" Tesia says, raising her eyebrows at him.....

: "If you want him...I thought you didn't?"

: Tesia shrugs....."I dunno.....Just know everybody leaves him out an' forgets him...."

: "I didn't left him out on purpose...because of the talk we had earlier..."

: "I know.....Buts wanted to be nice, so I said Howie too....." Tesia says....."Maybe ifs I makes things right, he'll be there for me too....."

: "Maybe he will..."

: "Hopes so.....Be nice to have you guys on my side...." Tesia says....

: "I don't know how good it is to have a bunch of freaks around but ok..."

: "Nots freaks....Heroes....." Tesia smiles....

: "No...freaks..."

: "Nuh-uh....." Tesia grins shaking her head....

: "Yes..." Kevin says nodding at her...

: Tesia giggles...."Nope...."

: "YES!.." Kevin says pouting at her...

: Tesia laughs....."Okay.....You win....."

: "I get to be a freak...that's a really great thing to win huh?"

: Tesia laughs still and nods...."Yep!" She still giggles.....

: "Good enough I guess..."

: "Kevy? If J's likes my Daddy now....What's that makes you?" Tesia asks....

: "Uncle...I would think..."

: "That's too weird....." Tesia says....."An' what would his Mommy be to me? An' Erin too...."

: "Well his mom would be your grandmother and Erin would be your mom..."

: "But whats would I call 'em? It's gonna gets confusing....." Tesia says, then admits....."Almost called J 'Daddy' couple times 'cause he feels more likes a daddy than a brother....."

: "Call them whatever you feel..."

: "But whats if they don't likes it?" Tesia says.....

: "A risk you have to take I guess..."

: Tesia sighs....."Don'ts wanna makes people mad.....Just wants a nice Mommy an' Daddy, an' a Gramma of my own....."

: "Then let them know that...and I'm sure none of them will get mad..."

: "Hopes you're right...." Tesia says....

: "I am..."

: Tesia smiles...."Kay....."

: Kevin yawns looking up at her..."Uh oh..."

: "What?" Tesia says.....

: "Sleepy..."

: Tesia giggles....."I'm nots anymore.....Woke up too much....." She yawns...."Kay...maybe a lil' sleepy....."

: "See...I told you..." Kevin says before yawning again...

: Tesia laughs....."Crazy.....Am I s'pose to goes to sleep now?"

: "If you want..."

: "Dunno...." Tesia shrugs....."Don't wants you to go....."

: "I know but it is getting really late..."

: Tesia pouts.....

: Kevin just lays there quietly...

: Tesia pouts even more, and tries to look really sad....She knew this look had to work on SOMEone.....

: "Now...now...don't even try that with me..."

: Tesia sighs dejectedly...."That don'ts work on anybody....." She still pouts....

: "No....doesn't work for you...try it another way..."

: "What other way? An' how comes it don'ts work?" Tesia asks....

: "Because you don't really look that sad...just look more sad and stick your lip out further let it quiver a little..."

: Tesia giggles slightly, then tries to pout, but ends up laughing....."Gots to nots giggle first.....Gots da giggles....."

: "You always have the giggles...anyway to get them out?"

: Tesia shrugs while still giggling...."Dunno....."

: "If I tickle it out that won't work...makes it worse�" Kevin says looking like he's trying to think...

: Tesia giggles...."Maybe...."

: Kevin tickles her a little..."Maybe we can run them all out..."

: Tesia squirms and laughs....

: "How long do you think this might take..."

: Tesia shrugs again...."Dunno....A Longs time, maybe....." She giggles some more....

: "Are you just doing this to keep me here?"

: Tesia giggles and shrugs slightly....."Dunno....."

: "I think so..." Kevin says tickling her even more...

: Tesia squeals with laughter and squirms....

: "Had enough?"

: Tesia shakes her head no...."Nuh-uh...."

: Kevin tickles her even more..."Alright then...but you asked for this one babe..."

: Tesia laughs and keeps squirming......

: Kevin sets up a little still tickling her..."I think it's working..."

: Tesia squeals and tries to get away....

: "You can never escape..."

: "Haha!" Tesia laughs, still squirming around like crazy.....

: "You are insane just like your brother..."

: Tesia grins widely...."That's a VERY good thing!"

: "Yes it is..."

: Tesia giggles happily...."Wanna be likes J SO much...."

: "He's a good person to be like Hunny..."

: "J's my Idol...." Tesia smiles...."Just dunno if I ever told him that...."

: "Don't it'll make his head even bigger than it is already..."

: Tesia giggles...."No it won'ts....His head can't gets any bigger Kevy....Trust me...."

: "Ow really..."

: "Yep...." Tesia says...."His head's HUGE! � Big as a hot-air balloon...." She adds....

: "Might explode..."

: Tesia nods...."Yeps...But I'll glue its back together for him...."

: "Good...once we collect all the pieces that can be your job..."

: Tesia giggles again...."Duct tape is good too...."

: "Yeah...Except he'd have lines of tape running all around his head then..."

: Tesia giggles even more...."That's silly...."

: "Yes..."

: Tesia giggles hysterically again....

: "Ok what is it this time?"

: "I can see J withs a duct taped head....." Tesia laughs.....

: "So can I..."

: Tesia giggles some more....

: "I guess the tickling didn't run all the giggles out..."

: Tesia shakes her head, her hair flying all over, as she'd taken it out when she'd changed into her pajamas.....

: Kevin yawns..."Oh man..."

: "What?" Tesia says....

: "Tired..."

: "No....You can'ts be...." Tesia says shaking her head.....

: "I can't help it I am..."

: Tesia places her hands on either side of his face and makes his eyes open up more, but makes sure not to hurt him...."Wakes up Silly....."

: Kevin smiles up at her...."I'm awake..."

: Tesia giggles...."You looks like an owl...."

: "Do I really?"

: "Yeps...." Tesia laughs, moving her hands...."There...Now you don'ts...."

: "Ok...if you say so..."

: Tesia nods...."Yeps...."

: "If you aren't sleepy then what do we do now baby?"

: "I dunno Kevy...." Tesia says shrugging...."You gonna stay 'till I falls asleep?"

: "Yeah...then I have to leave...but Marcus will be back before I go..."

: "Kay...." Tesia says softly...."Still wish you coulds stay all night...."

: "I know and I would if I could..."

: "Buts you can't...." Tesia sighs...."Will you sleeps over once we're all backs in LA?"

: "Sure..."

: "Really? You will?" Tesia says excitedly...."I can shows you da room I gots with Kara an' Tonya ats da beach house? An' you can sees da wall I painted with Marcus?"

: "I'd love to see it..."

: Tesia grins happily...."CAN'TS wait to shows it to you!"

: "I can't wait to see it..."

: Tesia beams happily...."Then why can'ts we go tomorrow?" She smirks....

: "Because I have to go home tomorrow you know that..."

: Tesia bites her lip...."Would you gets mad if I snuck on da plane an' went withs you?" She asks softly....

: "Yes very..."

: "Would I gets my butt beat?" Tesia asks quietly, still biting on her lip...."An' if yes, by everybody? Or just one somebody?"

: "By everyone I would guess..."

: "Even you?" Tesia asks....

: "Yes me first..."

: Tesia shudders...."Do NOT wants that to happen....EVER...."

: "Then just stay here and wait until we all meet up in LA..."

: "Kay...." Tesia says softly, looking down and fiddling with his shirt, as she bites her lip....

: "It won't be that long...and I'll call you as often as I can..."

: Tesia nods, holding back tears...She always hated it when AJ and Kevin would have to leave...Nick too....

: "I'll call you every night...remember I told you that before..."

: "I know...." Tesia whispers...She glances up, as she wipes a couple tears away...."Just don't likes when you an' J leave...Nicky too..."

: "I know...but we can't all be together all the time..."

: "Why nots? It's more fun...." Tesia says....

: "I know...but we have things to do..."

: Tesia sighs heavily, wiping her eyes again...."An' I'm never included 'cause I'm lil' an' it's all Backstreet stuff...."

: "We have to do it and you know that..."

: "I'm always stuck backstage watching stupid lil' TV's...." Tesia mumbles...."All I wanna do is stay glued to J...an' you...."

: "I'll glue you to my leg and we will be all set then..."

: Tesia smiles slightly...."Really? Then I can goes EVERYwhere withs you?"

: "I guess you would have to..."

: "Can you glue me to you now?" Tesia asks hopefully....

: "Go find me some really strong glue..."

: "Seriously?" Tesia asks....

: "Sure...do you think they make some strong enough?"

: Tesia nods...."Yep! Ifs not, we gots duct tape...Well, I do...."

: "The same stuff you were gonna use to fix A.J.'s head...if you use it all to tape yourself to me...then what will we do about him?"

: "Gets a new roll...." Tesia answers, sliding off him and the bed and running over to her bag....She rummages through it, then holds up a huge roll of duct tape, runs back to the bed, and sits on him once more...."Here Kevy....You can sticks us together now....."

: "You really think that will work?"

: Tesia nods...."Yep!"

: Kevin just shakes his head at her..."Who's the silly one now?"

: "You said we could...." Tesia says, looking at him....

: "I don't believe you actually think that we can really do that..."

: "Buts why not?" Tesia says softly....

: "People can't really do things like that...Because it won't work Hunny..."

: "How come?" Tesia says, looking sad.....

: "I thought you knew we were just playin�..."

: Tesia shakes her head sadly, then in a burst of hurt/anger, whips the roll of tape across the room back over at her bag, scaring the crap outta Snoopy....

: Snoopy yelps and runs to hide under the other bed....

: "Now that wasn't very nice..."

: Tesia crosses her arms over her chest and pouts...She didn't care if it was nice or not, she'd thought he was serious....

: Kevin grins up at her..."Mad at me now aren't you?" He asks...

: Tesia nods, as her eyes fill up with tears, and she looks down, letting her hair hang over her face, so it would hide her tears....

: Kevin rolls on his side rolling her off he tickles her and kisses her face playfully...

: Tesia squirms, trying hard not to laugh, though she now wanted too....

: Kevin kisses her face more and blows on her neck still tickling her..."You know you love Kevy..."

: Tesia finally giggles, and squirms....

: Kevin tickles her for a while before kissing the tip of her nose..."You can't stay mad at me..." he says giving her the saddest looking pout ever..

: Tesia giggles, and throws her arms about his neck...."Loves you too much to stays mad...Nots even when I wants too....."

: Kevin smiles at her..."I love you too Hunny..."

: Tesia pulls back slightly and kisses his nose...She grins at him, loving it to no end, to hear someone say they love her numerous times in one night...He'd said it WAY more than ANYone ever had before in her life in one night....

: Kevin fights back a yawn...

: "Sure we can't tapes me to you for tomorrow?" Tesia says softly, staring at him....

: "I wish I could take you with me...you know I want to..."

: "Then why don'ts you just do it?" Tesia asks....

: Kevin sighs..."Hmm...because I can't..."

: "Why nots?" Tesia says, pouting....

: "Please don't do that again..."

: "Do what?" Tesia asks....

: "Start looking all sad and things..."

: Tesia sighs...."Kay...." She smirks, and tackles him suddenly....

: "Hello...what�s that all about?" Kevin asks...

: Tesia giggles...."It's fun...."

: "Ok...but now what are you going to do?"

: Tesia shrugs...."Dunno...."

: "You tackle me then you have no idea what to do next..." Kevin says shaking his head at her...

: Tesia giggles...."Well, I coulds do something...But I'm too lil' an' mights gets in trouble...."

: Kevin looks at her..."Do I even wanna know?"

: Tesia shrugs...."I dunno what you wanna know...."

: "Do I even wanna know what you meant by you could do something?"

: Tesia just shrugs...."Maybe...."

: "Maybe....ok...good enough..."

: Tesia stares at him thinking....

: "What are you thinking about?"

: "Kissing...." Tesia slips out, then immediately covers her mouth with her hands, and goes a deep shade of red....

: "Owww...well...good thing, I guess..."

: Tesia just sits there quiet, and totally embarrassed....

: Kevin gives her a quick kiss like a father or brother would do...."There now..."

: Tesia's eyes suddenly shine from happiness, and though she's still blushing slightly, she smiles at him....

: "Feel better?"

: Tesia nods, as he'd left her speechless....

: "O...K..."

: "Didn'ts expect that...." Tesia says softly...."Only J ever kiss me likes that...An' it's nots often as I want...."

: "Then let him know that..."

: "Buts how?" Tesia says...."Everybody's gonna thinks I'm weird...Gets lots of hugs, an' nots 'nough kisses..."

: "And why do you say that?"

: "'Cause it's true...I can hugs everybody....But nots used to da kisses...." She looks down sheepishly...."I beats a girl up once 'cause she gots to kiss her brother, an' mine wasn't around to kiss...."

: "You beat a girl up...." Kevin says laughing all of a sudden

: "What's so funny?" Tesia asks, cocking her head...."I gots beat up in return...Buts by more people....She had friends...."

: "Oh...that's bad...but I can't imagine my princess so sweet and innocent beating someone up..."

: Tesia smiles shyly...."She mades fun of me 'cause I had a 'make-believes' brother, who I couldn'ts kiss...Her brother thought it was funny, an' gots mad at her for makin' fun of me an' gettin' me beats up....Liked him....He thought I was cute, 'cause I always said hi, an' everybody else went off to play instead...."

: "Oh ok..."

: "Been in lots of fights Kevy...." Tesia tells him...."Don't likes 'em....Buts they just happened...." She looks away...."Hits somebody ats da mall today...An' Nicky later ats da Hospital...."

: "You did what?"

: Tesia stares down at her hands...."I hits somebody ats da mall 'cause he took da Teddy Lex gave me twice....An' I hits Nicky....in da face...."

: "And what did Nick do?"

: "Nothing...." Tesia says...."Just said to leaves da room....."

: Kevin just shakes his head at her...

: "You mad?" Tesia asks softly, glancing up at him....

: "No...but you should never have done that..."

: Tesia looks back down at her hands...."Was defending Teddy first couple times....An' Nicky....he wouldn'ts listen....wanted to gives him Lex's locket, but he didn'ts care...."

: "It doesn't matter things like that make people look mean and ugly and you aren't mean or ugly so you can't do things like that..."

: Tesia fiddles with his shirt again...."Didn't means too....An' da boy was gonna hits me...."

: "I'm talking about Nick Hunny..."

: "I know...." Tesia says softly...."Was waitin' for him to hits me back, but he didn'ts....Don't thinks J knows 'bout that either...."

: "I bet he does by now...and why did you think he would hit you back?"

: "'Cause I slapped him an' screamed ats him...." Tesia admits....

: "Yes but did you really think he would hit you babe?"

: "An' wouldn'ts listen...An' we were in hospital....." Tesia rambles...."An' he spanked me twice...or maybe three times, today...Lex spanked me three....Brian spanked me once? Twice?...Lost count...."

: "Or wait...Maybe Lex spanked me four....I dunno...."

: "That's fine...but tell me did you need to be spanked...before you answer think about what you did before and did they have a reason to do that?"

: Tesia bites her lip and thinks hard...."Um...'cept once...I don't thinks da one should've happened...Was trying to surprise Lex, an' knew she wouldn't lets me go 'lone, so I left...Took Nicky's credit card too...."

: "Ok...should you have taken the card and went? Couldn't you have waited until later..."

: "Nicky said I should've waited...He would've tooks me...." Tesia admits, looking back down...."Guess I needed all of 'em...."

: "See...now you are learning something..."

: "Learning what?" Tesia asks, looking back up.

: "Learning that some things you did were wrong and that you shouldn't have done them..."

: Tesia sighs...."Thinks I always knows that, but do stuffs anyway...."

: "You won't though you'll see..."

: "Hopes you're right...." Tesia says...."Don'ts want J to beats my butt for a looong time, after tomorrow...."

: "You think he will tomorrow?"

: Tesia nods...."Yes...Thinks he'll beats my butt good...VERY good...."

: "I don't know about that...you will have to wait and see..."

: "Wanna know now, so I can gets it over with...." Tesia says...."Buts he'd make you leave, an' I don't wants that..."

: "He is too busy to come by right now...like always..."

: Tesia rolls her eyes...."Never too busy to yell ats me an' beats my butt though...."

: "He does that in his free time..."

: "Wish he'd play in his free time...." Tesia mumbles...."You play...."

: "Because I have nothing to be angry about..."

: "Good...." Tesia says.....

: "I don't stay mad long anyway so..."

: "That's good...." Tesia smiles....

: "Yes very good..."

: Tesia hugs him...."Yep...."

: Kevin takes in a deep breath..."Humm..."

: "Wha?" Tesia says looking at him.....

: "Really long day...that's all..."

: Tesia kisses his cheek...."I know whatcha means...."

: "Yea...you've done a lot today too...I keep forgetting...�

: Tesia giggles...."Buts you didn't gets in lots an' lots of trouble today...I wasn't even s'pose to gets my dress....."

: "But you got it and that's all that matters right...what are you going to do with it now?"

: "Keeps it for something special...." Tesia says...."Maybe more dates.... Or Grammy's.... or something likes that...."

: "Grammy's are coming up...that would be nice...but I'm sure we will buy you a new dress for that..."

: "Cool!" Tesia grins...."Likes to shop for pretty dresses! Loves bein' a Princess!"

: Kevin smiles at her..."Yes well...it's nice to have nice things..."

: "Only gots nice things from you guys....An' usually Daddy threw 'em out...." Tesia says, looking down...."He gots rid of da Belle dress you gave me.... It still fit too...."

: "I'll have to find you another one..."

: "Really?" Tesia says, her eyes lighting up...."I used to sleeps in it too...."

: "Well I don't want you doing that...I'll find you something else to sleep in..."

: Tesia giggles...."Only slept in it, so Daddy wouldn'ts take it...."

: "Well you don't have to worry...no one will take anything for you again..."

: "Good...." Tesia says.... She thinks of something then, and her eyes cloud slightly, then light up again.....

: "What?"

: "I 'membered something 'bout Daddy.... Something good...." Tesia says softly....

: "What?"

: "He used to reads me stories.... An play pirates...." Tesia says softly, looking down at her hands.. "I was really lil' though.... He even tolds me once, he was happy he gots a lil' girl, an' that's I was his Angel.... But then.... things changed....."

: "I wonder why?"

: "Mommy didn't likes him spending time withs me an' nots her....." Tesia whispers....."An' I liked to sing, likes J.....Daddy didn't likes that.....But I wanted to sings for Daddy....nots anybody else....."

: Kevin nods at her..."Ok...still no good reason..."

: "Daddy gots mean after that......An' I was called da Brat.....an' Mommy said I'm worthless an' a mistake an' don't deserves to be here.....Daddy never used to say nothing, just spanks me lots.....but then he started sayin' stuff likes Mommy, an' I was lost.....Hads nobody to watch me sing.....Only J an' you guys would, an' Daddy hated that.....J wasn't even s'pose to knows 'bout me either....."

: "No he wasn't..."

: "Buts why not?" Tesia says.....

: "I don't know Hunny...just your mom and dad wanted it that way..."

: Tesia wipes her eyes....."Miss da old Daddy, who used to plays with me....."

: Kevin leans up kissing her cheek..."I'm sorry..."

: "Nots your fault Daddy gots mean....." Tesia says softly....."J's a better Daddy anyway....." She gives him a slight smile....

: "He is...and he will be..."

: "Wish you were my Daddy, an' J just my brother.....You gots more patience....." Tesia says......

: "Because I'm older than AJ..."

: "So? J's older than me...." Tesia points out....

: "And he has more patience that you..."
