Sometimes


Part Two

Momma thought long and hard, "Chris, I'm at a loss. We have plans, in a half hour I have to have them in Central Park for a carriage ride, then onto Lincoln Center, followed by Carnegie Hall yet this afternoon. I'd love to say yes but after I told them they were meeting the guys, we'd have to get ladders so we could peel them off the ceiling. Not that meeting the guys isn't more important than the rest, but we have obligations to meet. We've promised we'd be there at these specific times Chris. You know we have to go to Hard Rock Cafe tonight for dinner, guests of the club, if the guys aren't busy tonight." she said. "I understand obligations, so do the guys. Let me see what's on board for tonight. Would you like to come with me?" Chris asked. "Sure, save you being the middle man. That's you job though isn't it?" she asked. "Yeah I guess it is." Chris said escorting her to the private room. "Barbara. I'd like to introduce Walker, Isaac, Taylor and Zac Hanson." Chris said. "Walker thank you for lunch and the bubbly, we enjoyed it." Barbara said. "You're welcome. It was my pleasure. I enjoyed you're exchange with your daughter." Walker said. "Go for spacy chicks eh?" Barbara teased and the guys broke into laughter. "Oh forgive me Diana, that wasn't fair." Barbara apologized. "Truly refreshing." Walker exclaimed. "Isaac, Taylor, Zac it's a pleasure to meet you. I'm sorry about our busy schedule. I don't know why we do this to ourselves, cram everything in every time we get together. Anyway, by the time I told them they were about to meet you, peeled them off the ceiling, we would miss one of the appointments we have yet this afternoon. I was asking Chris if you were free tonight? We have to attend some sort of dinner at the Hard Rock Cafe. If your free, you could join us? Chris could you call Mark, I mean our waiter?" Barbara asked. "Dad can we go?" the three asked almost in unison. "I don't know what to say." Walker answered. "Here Walker maybe this will help you decide, here is what they sent us. This invite is because of the middle one Chele. She just got into modeling and the offers have been pouring in. See it says we can bring guests, they provide security, transportation. Excuse me. Mark be a dear, tell me are they behaving themselves?" Barbara asked. "Yes they are behaving. Here these are for you." Mark said. "Be a sweetie and have them get ready to leave. We have a car scheduled in five minutes, if you'll notify the front door too." Barbara asked dumping the notes in the trash. "Walker we're in the Holiday Inn Midtown, the new one, here's our room number, here's my cell number." Barbara said writing the numbers on the invitation. "You see if you can work things out, I'll work on the girls, there good girls honest, just a little obsessed, Hansonized. Who am I trying to impress, they're Hanson Fanatics, Freaks, Scream Squad, Green Jello stars. The lung power, who needs a pa system." Barbara laughed. "You sound like you have your work cut out for you." Chris said. "This is going to be a blast." Barbara said. "Isaac her name is Kendra, Taylor her name is Chele and Zac her name is Jessy. Don't forget them, somehow I'll get you together. I really have to go the car should, oh no music. I really have to go now, the little one will be putting on a floor show." Barbara said. "The little one is yours." Walker said. "Oh I think you confused me with someone who looks like her mother." Barbara said straight faced. "Oh you are good." Walker said. "She's right Dad, Jessy rocks." Zac said. "He's right Dad, she's got some moves." Taylor said. "You gotta see this all three are up dancing now." Isaac said and the all headed out. "Remember to let me know when you decide Walker, Mark here hold this." Barbara said as she joined the girls and they danced to the new Ricky Marten "Living La Viva Loca" until Barbara noticed the car pull up out front and she danced to Mark, picking up her purse, tipping him $50, "Bye sweetie." and she rejoined the girls and the danced their way out the door and to the limo. The were delivered to Central Park after a quick change of clothes in the back on the way over. They were met by the photographer and the shoot got underway. The girls were on their way around the Park as Barbara filled out paper work. "Hello Barbara." she answered her ringing cell phone. "Just the person I wanted to talk to." Chris said. "Chris?" Barbara asked. "Yeah you recognized the voice I'm impressed." Chris said. "You have a very soothing voice, memorable." Barbara said. "I just wanted you to know that Walker is determined to work things out for tonight, he's on his way over there now." Chris said. "That's great, the girls are in the carriage right now, but as soon as they're back I'll let them know. Chris?" Barbara asked. "Yes Barbara" he said. "I don't think I invited you tonight, I just included you in the group and assumed you would know I was inviting you. Chris if you're free tonight, I'd enjoy your company." Barbara asked. "Wow great minds do think alike. I was calling to ask if you minded if I came along." Chris said. "Wow is right." Barbara laughed. "I'll meet you at your hotel at 6:30 then?" Chris asked. "That'd be great. I'll see you then." Barbara said. "Can't wait. Bye." he said. "Goodbye Chris." Barbara hung up. "Yes yes yes." she squealed. "What Momma?" the girls called from down the street. "How would you three like to meet Hanson?" Barbara asked. "You know I thought she said, how would you like to meet Hanson. I've been on the wrong end of this horse too long." Jessy laughed. "That's what I thought she asked." Chele said. "Me too." Kendra said. "Momma!!" they screamed. "Yes baby girls?" Barbara asked. "What did you say?" they asked racing over. "Excuse me girls are you done or did you leave before you were finished." Barbara asked. "Sorry Momma" they answered and headed back. The photographer came over and signed the forms and excused the girls as the limo reappeared. Before the stepped into the car Momma finally repeated her question. The three were speechless. "Nice reaction, if you could repeat this tonight." Barbara said and the screaming began. "Get it out of your system, first one to scream in the car doesn't go tonight." Barbara threatened. They changed clothes on the ride to the Lincoln Center. "Momma are you lying?" Chele asked. "No baby it's not a lie nor a hoax. I met them myself. They each know you name. They are really phsyched at meeting you." Barbara explained as they arrived at the Lincoln Center. The girls reported for the next round of pictures, with a little less enthusiasm. "Come on girls, smile or you don't go tonight." Barbara said and smiles appeared immediately. The shoot was over as fast as it started and the limo appeared once again for the ride to Carnegie Hall. They changed into formals on the ride over and were greeted by hair stylist who quickly put their hair up and the shoot started. "Hello this is Barbara." she answered her cell phone. "It's a date." Walker said. "Walker Hanson?" Barbara asked. "Yeah. I thought you'd have more trouble figuring out with all the offers you receive." Walker said. "Oh don't feed me that BS. I've already talked to Chris, you're the only other man in this city I've invited out." Barbara said. "I've already spoken to the driver, he'll pick us up on the way over." Walker said. "Good, Chris is meeting me at 6:30, he offered to help me with the girls. Then we'll see you all later. Until then." Barbara said. "Until later Barbara." Walker said hanging up. As soon as the girls were finished, she shared the good news. "What will we wear?" Chele said. "What the send for us wear silly." Jessy laughed. "Hope they know what they're doing." Kendra said. "Me too" Jessy said. "Me three" Chele said and they all laughed and loaded in the limo for the ride to the hotel. "Move it girls, Chris will be here in an hour and a half." Barbara said taking the first shower. Kendra answered the door and their clothes were delivered. "Please don't be butt ugly." Jessy said unzipping the garment bag. "Blue can't be all bad. Leather. Oh my god. Momma can I wear it." Jessy asked. "Mines red" Chele screamed. "No way. I'm bummed already. Who ever heard of a green cow." Kristina laughed as Jessy unzipped her bag and quickly zipped it back up. "No more dilly dally, one of you in the showers, Kristina march." Barbara ordered. "Look Chele it's green. A green cow." Jessy laughed. "Hanson leather suits. Wow somethings are meant to be." Barbara said and they all got busy dressing. "One half hour until Chris." Barbara warned and they put on the finishing touches and all put their suits on. "Momma what are you wearing?" Jessy asked as she appeared in a silk pantsuit. "Wow" the girls said in unison. "Thank you I take it." she laughed answering the phone. "Chris is downstairs girls. Let's join him." Barbara said and they all took one last check and headed to the elevators.
