Prologue:
Together Again
Two months… Two long, glorious months she would
have. Finally, a chance to relax and recuperate. She deserved this. Her junior
year at UCLA had been draining, both intellectually and emotionally. She was
looking forward to spending some much needed time with some of her best friends.
She couldn’t wait. This was definitely gonna be a summer to remember. A summer
in Orlando…
~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~
"I’m going! I’m actually going!’ Rylee
was extremely excited about her upcoming trip to Florida. She was gonna be
spending the entire summer with her best friend, and she could hardly wait. She
hadn’t seen Brian in practically a zillion years! Well, not quite but it sure
felt that long to her. She could still vividly remember that day when they last
said goodbye. Rylee sighed inwardly, and then shook her head to clear it.
"Get off it, little girl," she said to
herself. "It wasn’t that long ago, plus you have two whole months
with Brian and the other guys!"
Rylee sighed again, and quickly scanned her room,
as she continued packing. The 21-year-old UCLA junior packed hurriedly as the
warm California sunshine streamed through her bedroom window, casting sparkles
of light over the many pictures of Brian and her other friends scattered
throughout the room. The only thing that MAYBE could’ve rivaled the number of
pictures was the number of pictures of one of Rylee’s favorite groups, *N
Sync. There were several scattered around the room, but most were stored away.
"Hmmm…" She thought as her gaze fell on one of the posters of JC Chasez, her personal favorite, even though she liked all the guys. "*N Sync is based in Orlando… I’ll be in Orlando…who knows what will happen!" It’s not that she was some obsessed teenybopper or anything. Well, okay so maybe she was a little obsessed, but in a "mature way", at least that’s what she told her friends who questioned her sanity. She laughed at her own musings, and tried to hurry and finish packing. After all, her flight to Orlando would leave in a couple of hours. And then, the real fun begins…
