SS5-9

On The Tour Bus
Nick stood there thinking when he suddenly had this bad feeling, he brought his hand up his head. �Damn, what the hell�, he mumbled to himself as he suddenly felt dizzy and fell backwards hitting his head on the kitchen counter and landing on the booth next to the table in pain.
�Nick!�, Brian yelled as he and the others saw what just happened and ran up to him.
�Nick?! Are you alright? What happened?�, Kevin asked.
�Huh?�, Nick said holding the back of his head and leaned up in a sitting position.
�Your bleeding!�, AJ exclaimed as Nick brought his hand forward off the back of his head. Nick sat there and looked at his hand like he was in a daze.
�Nick, what happened?�, Howie asked.
�Nothing�, Nick answered walking away to the bathroom to clean the blood off the back of his head. He stood there and looked in the mirror as he thought about what happened. �That was her!�, he exclaimed as he thought about the image he had before he passed out. There was the girl in the car as she drove down the intersection crying and before he knew it she was in an accident and he had gotten dizzy and passed out. �Wait she was bleeding too, and so am I. Damn this is so weird. Yeah and if I told the fellas about this they would just laugh again.�
�Nick?�, Brian asked knocking on the door softly.
�What?�, Nick answered a little annoyed.
�Come on please come on and talk to us in the back. We have some things we wanna say to you�, Brian explained. Nick stood there for a moment, �Ok�, he said as he opened the door.
�Your head alright?�, Brian asked concerned.
�Yea just a little bump�, Nick nodded as he followed Brian to the back of the bus and sat down with everybody else.
�Nick, we would all just like to apologize about making fun about the dreams you are having about this girl. We were here and you thought you could trust us to tell us that and we let you down, and again we�re all very sorry�, Kevin told him as all the others nodded.
�Thanks guys�, Nick said with a half smile.
�Now you gonna tell us what happened on in the kitchen?�, AJ asked.
�It was weird I had these images in my head of the girl getting in a car accident and all of a sudden I got this feeling that I was dizzy and I fell and the next thing I knew I was bleeding and I saw the image of her bleeding�, Nick explained to them all as they sat there surprised.
�Woah that�s freaky�, Howie got out.
�Yeah and she�s been crying a lot lately, guys this is really bugging me, I need to find out if she�s real and why she�s crying�, Nick sighed.
�Wait I have an idea�, Brian smiled.
�What?�, they all asked.
�What if we take that drawing you drew of the girl on the Rosie show tomorrow and take a couple more of your drawing like to show off, and then once everybody sees it and if there is a girl like that, all the teenybopper fans would probably notice her if she was walking down the street and report there was a girl like that and they want to know who she was�, Brian said all in one breathe.
�Yeah and it shouldn�t take that long either�, AJ added it.
Nick sat there for a moment, �Oh what the hell it�s worth a try�, he then smiled.
�Ok that�s all set I�m gonna go to sleep until the concert tonight, good afternoon�, Brian smirked.
�Yeah me too�, Howie responded as all the others said it sounded like a good idea and they all went to sleep.

The crowd screamed as the guys sang Larger Than Life. The guys happen to all look in the first row of the audience and saw that Nick�s eyes widen. Between their parts they whispered back and forth.
�That�s her guys that�s the girl�, Nick smiled big, �I knew it, I knew she had to be real�. Throughout the whole concert all the guys looked to see her, and in the middle they pulled some fans and their mothers up on stage for the song Perfect Fan. Nick went to go to the girl but she turned and looked and then a tear fell down her face, �Sorry I can�t. I don�t have a mother anymore�. Nick stood there in shock, that�s why she had been crying. Nick then whispered in her ear, �don�t worry about it� and took her on the stage.

�Guys�.Guys��GUYS!!!�, Fatima yelled on the bus.
�Huh, what, aww do ya have to yell�, all the guys responded as they woke up and jumped out of their bunks as Fatima left after she told them it was time to get ready for the concert. All the guys the stood there in front of each other and said, �I saw her!�

In Danielle�s Hospital Room The Next Morning
�Hey Dani, I�m here�, Ashley said peeking her head in the door.
�Hey Ash�, Danielle said softly.
�Not watching any tv?�, Ashley said picking up the tv remote.
�No I just woke up�, Danielle told her.
�Ok�, Ashley nodded as she surfed through the stations really quick as Danielle�s eyes widened.
�Wait go back I could have swore I just saw a picture of myself drawn on the tv!�, Danielle exclaimed confused.
�Ok�, Ashley replied as she went back a couple channels and stopped on Rosie as they saw this sketch of a girl that looked exactly like Danielle.
�Oh my god�, Ashley answered, �I can�t believe how much that looks like you!�
�Who the heck drew this?�, Danielle questioned.
�Shh listen�, Ashley told her as Rosie showed off a couple more drawings.
�Wow aren�t these drawings really nice, a hand for Nick. Gosh Nick you�re an excellent drawer�, Rosie talked as it showed the Backstreet Boys sitting in the chairs.
�HOLY SHIT!�, Danielle exclaimed, �Why does all this seem freakin to me, first I�ve been having dreams about this guy and now he draws a picture that looks exactly like me�
�Yea I know this is starting to freak me out now too, but since we have first row tickets to their concert, he might just notice you�, Ashley smiled trying to lighten up Danielle. Danielle raised an eyebrow and looked at her funny, �What do you mean we have front row tickets to a Backstreet Boys concert, remember we spent our money�
�Well I�d hate to bring up the subject again but in your mothers letter remember what it said, I got the tickets out of the envelope and they say front row on it�, Ashley explained to her.
�I totally forgot all about that part, you got the tickets with you?�, Danielle asked.
�Yea, here�, Ashley responded as she handed her the tickets out of her purse. Danielle took them and looked at them, �Wow it�s unbelievable that they say front row�. Danielle then handed them back to Ashley to put in her purse.
�So when did they say you could be released from the hospital?�, Ashley asked.
�They said I could leave today if I wanted, but they said to take an easy, and I can go shopping to get something to wear for the concert only if it�s a couple hours�, Danielle told her, �But I hope this cut and bruise heal up quick on my face and I ache like hell�
�I�ll go get the release forms, be right back�, Ashley told her as she left the room.
�God Mom I wish you were here now, I miss you so much�, Danielle sighed as she broke down in tears. Ashley came to walk back in the room when she stopped at the door, she stood there for a moment as she watched Danielle cry, �God this is gonna take her awhile to get over with, and it had to happen so fast without her knowing, I hope the concert gets her feeling better�, Ashley said to herself as she walked in.
�The papers ma�am�, Ashley said with a smile as she gave her friend a hug, �I know Dani, I�m here for ya�

Later That Night At The Mall

Ashley and Danielle had just finished shopping as they walked down the food court to get something to eat. A group of teenagers walked over to them.
�Excuse can we ask you a question?�, one of the girls asked.
�Yes, what is it?�, Danielle asked wondering what they wanted.
�Are you Nick Carter�s girlfriend?�, she asked.
�What?�, Danielle laughed, �What makes you think that?�
�You, there was a picture that Nick drew that looks exactly like you�, the girl told her.
�The one on the Rosie show right?�, Danielle asked as all the girls nodded.
�Yea I saw that, but I�m not his girlfriend, sorry girls. I�ve never met Nick�, Danielle explained to them.
�Oh ok sorry to be nosey but can I ask you a couple of questions�, another girl asked as Danielle nodded, �What happened to your face, and can we have a picture with you?�
�Oh I was in a car accident yesterday, and umm sure why not�, Danielle answered as the girls got next to her as Ashley took a couple pictures of them together with their camera.
�Thanks�, all the girls said as they soon walked off.
�God Dani, I think that picture that Nick drew is gonna make you famous, ya never know you could be on a talk show next�, Ashley laughed.
Danielle laughed as well, �Well if that�s how I have to make a living, I guess so�, Danielle joked as they left for home.
