| �Hey y�all *Nsync fans out there,� The girls heard over the radio from Crystal�s car, a green Jetta. �I just got an e-mail that had a link to e-crush.com and I�m going to be taking callers to tell me what answer they would give to the question and then we will see who the big heart-throb soul mate is. Let�s begin�� The girls in the car began talking not listening to the quiz at all. �Here is the results to the quiz� �Shhhhh.... hush! Listen to the sound of your palpating heart... your *NSYNC love match is "The Quiet One," blond-haired, green-eyed, Wayne Gretzky-lookalike Lance Bass! The Southern Gentleman, Lance claims to have never been in a serious relationship. That's right, not only did you rate highly with Lance, but you could realistically get first crack at 'im. You'd have to squeeze into his very hectic work schedule (the reason he gives for his abstinence, so to speak), but once you do, Lance expects the love of his life to last forever. So don't tell him the truth. Ha ha, just kidding. Lance's ideal mate possesses more spiritual qualities than simply nice looks, shapely legs, and a nice set of ... er, shoes. He's looking for a person with trustworthiness, sincerity, integrity, fun and good morals. (Hey, wait... where's everybody going??) A devout Baptist, Lance would surely love to hang with an innocent girl who shares or respects his beliefs. He enjoys a wide range of music that unfortunately also includes Celine Dion. You might wanna take him to a decent movie, too, since his favorites are Armageddon and Clue. But rest easily, because Lance is one man who's gonna give it to you straight. This unbendable Taurus boy will be faithful, upright and committed. In other words, he won't be prowling around Hollywood at 2 a.m. scouting out transvestites... he'll be safe at home, sound asleep, hopefully next to you. Congrats!� �Yeah,� Crystal cooed. �Now only if that would come true for me. He would be perfect. � �Well did you see some of those girls at the concert, Crystal,� Her best friend, Chrissy asked. �They were like� GROSS!� Crystal laughed and pulled into the parking lot where the two 20 year olds would be stay for the night. �Here we go�� The girls broke out into chorus and heard some voices behind them as they walked with their rolling suitcases behind them toward the hotel. �Look more Nsync fans,� Crystal said turning around. The darkness surrounded everything like a black velvet shroud. �You guys staying here tonight?� �Yeah,� The tallest man said. �We have to get to our rooms cause we are going to drop pretty soon. Are you staying here, too?� �I hope so,� Chrissy said. �We just went to the *Nsync concert down the road about 5 miles and we heard that there was not going to be any vacant rooms. We have to go see if there is any rooms left.� �How from home are you,� Another man asked still surrounded in the darkness. �Well,� Crystal began. �About a day.� �A DAY,� The shortest man said. �Why are you a day away from home for *Nsync?� �They are so incredible,� Chrissy said. �The music just speaks to us. It�s so amazing to have such a connection just from music.� �I know what ya mean,� All the guys said. �So,� A man asked. �Who is your favorites?� �I don�t like to say I have a favorite,� Crystal answered. �But I like to call it impartial.� �Okay,� The man said. �Who are you most impartial to?� �Chris,� Chrissy said. �I love him so much� well not love� I never met him, but I really like his sense of humor.� �And you,� The short man said giggling, speaking to Crystal. �Lance,� Crystal said.� His voice sends chills down my spine. �Why does every girl say that,� Another one of the men asked with a pure confused tone in his innocent voice. �Yeah, what happened to� that Justin guy,� The tallest man asked. �Nobody shows love for him anymore.� �We love him,� Chrissy said. �He�s defiantly hot, but we just like to go the path less traveled. Can�t always follow the rest of the girls.� �Well we are almost there and I have enjoyed talking to you girls this evening,� A man said. �Hey, how about if you can�t get a room, you come stay with us. We insist, right guys?� �PLEASE?� The gang pleaded. Chrissy watched a man scribble something on a scrap of paper and handed it to Crystal. Crystal watched a manly hand come into the light. He had a ring on his ring finger that looked scarcely familiar. She tried studying it for another minute, but the man pulled his hand away when Crystal gripped the paper. �Sure,� The girls said smiling. Crystal pulled open the door and let light filter through the night and she turned around to hold the door open for the guys when she realized who the guys were. |
