Jessy woke to a ringing phone again, "Hanson Residence." she answered. "Jessy sweetie did I wake you?" Walker asked. "No Dad I had to get up to answer the phone anyway." Jessy giggled and rolled back into Zac arms. "Jessy have any of the guys gotten up yet?" Walker asked. "Dad I doubt it. We were up late watching movies and the guys were all pretty wired from the studios and didn't crash until about three hours ago. Why?" Jessy asked and she listen to him explain that the producer had called their Mercury rep and he was on his way out and probably is there. "Where Dad? LA, the studios, not here. Gotta go someone is at the door. Bye." Jessy said slipping from Zac's arms racing to her room throwing on a sundress before racing to the front door, "Please don't ring that again. Chris?" Jessy said. "Yeah and you are?" Chris asked. "I'm Jessy. Dad, I mean Walker just called to say we might see you. I'm sorry but the guys are all still asleep. They were up really, really late. Come in and I'll make us some coffee and something for breakfast, have you eaten?" Jessy asked as Chris followed her to the kitchen. "No I didn't take time to stop. I wanted to see Zac, so I came straight here." he explained as he sat at the table watching her as she made them something to eat. They took the plates and coffee to the patio to eat, talking about almost anything, except who she was and what she was doing here. The had finished a pot of coffee and Chris was playing twenty questions when Zac appeared behind her. Chris could tell from her face that instantly she knew something was different and as the smile spread across her face and she turned to see him, "Zac you're up." Jessy said rushing to his arms. "I missed you babe. I see we have company, Morning Chris." Zac said as he kissed her deeply. "He's here to see you. You want something to eat?" Jessy asked. "Sure babe, I'm really hungry." Zac said. "Coming up." Jessy said kissing him and heading to the kitchen. Jessy return shortly with cup of coffee, glass of orange juice and some fresh fruit, and another pot of coffee, "More Chris?" Jessy asked and she filled the cups before returning to the kitchen to finish Zac's breakfast. "Here you go hun." Jessy said serving him and then sitting while he ate, arguing with Chris that is was Saturday. "No, I promised Jessy I'd take her to the beach." Zac said. "Hun I'll understand if you have to go into the studio. Zac the beach will always be there, we can go some other day. You go do what you have to do and I'll be here waiting for you to come back." Jessy said. "You sure babe?" Zac asked. "So sure that I already put your change of clothes and shoes in the bathroom. Go take a shower and get ready, I'll keep Chris company." Jessy said kissing him tenderly as she caressed his face. As soon as Zac was ready, he and Chris made their way to the studio as Jessy cleaned up the breakfast dishes and made breakfast for the rest of them. After they had finally woken and eaten breakfast, "This is the only chance the four of you are going to have to do things you can't with a pair of 16 year olds tagging along. Please don't worry about me. I insist you go and paint the town." Jessy said. "Sis I can't leave you hear alone." Chele argued. "Sis I'm not alone, my best friend is here, me, and it's been awhile since we've been alone together. I think we'll do our nails, eat junk food, and dream about Zac." Jessy teased and Chele gave in and they left. She gave the house a quick once over, did the laundry, planned dinner, and finally found her way to the pool where she swam, then took a nap in the sun. She woke to someone tying her suit back up. "Zac what time is it?" Jessy said turning over in his arms. "A little after 4pm babe. Did you get a good nap?" Zac asked. "Yeah a three hours. Are you done and all mine again?" Jessy asked. "Not quite, Chris wants to take us to dinner." Zac said. "Oh, I guess I better change then." Jessy said. "But I reall like what you're wearing." Zac said tracing the triangular piece covering her nipple causing it to harden and Jessy to moan. Zac leaned down and kissed her passionately as his hand stroked her thigh, higher and higher. Jessy moaned again in anticipation, his touch sending chills up and down her spine. "Zac" she moaned. "We better get you dressed so we can go." Zac said. "You're rotten, you tease." Jessy fumed, rising and pulling a towel around her as she mde her way to her room, slamming her door. "Two can play that game." Jessy said and she dressed in her black form fitting mini dress with spaghetti straps. "Ouch." she said looking at her image in the mirror. She grabbed a curling iron and left her hair up, adding a few tendrels. She slipped into her pumps, grabbed her little black bag, adding what few items she needed and made her way back to Zac and Chris. "I'm ready." Jessy announced. "Babe you look great." Zac said. "You're a beautiful young lady." Chris said. "Thank you. Where are you taking us?" Jessy asked. "Planet Hollywood, where else do you go in Hollywood." Chris said and they loaded up. Jessy had her first taste of Hanson fans from the other side and didn't care for it, walking away from the mob and waiting for Zac. "Babe you okay?" Zac asked. "I'm fine now. I just got scared Zac and you were so busy fighting them off I just decided to get out of it." Jessy said as they made their way inside. "We'll be okay in here they have great security." Zac explained as fans lined up for autographs. Jessy headed to look around and be looked at as payback. "What's this about?" she asked the man on the stage. "Amatuer v.s. Pro Night sweet thing, you chose your opponent. We play there music video and then you get your shot at it." he explained. "I'm game, I'll take her on." Jessy said pointing at Lee Ann Rimes, "How Do I Live' "And you are?" he asked. "I'm Jessy." she answered. "Ladies and Gentlemen we have our first competitor, her name is Jessy and she's a knock out, so who cares if she can sing. Right guys. Here's her victim folks. Roll it." he said and the music video played. "Okay folks let hear for our brave little competitor. Jessy." he announced and Jessy nodded at the sound man who started the background tape, "How do I get through one night without you. If I had to live without you, what kind of life would that be. Oh I need you in my arms need you to hold. Your my world, my heart, my soul. And if you ever leave. Baby you would take away everything good in my life. And tell me now, how do I live without you. I want to know, how do i breathe without you. If you ever go. How do I ever, ever say no. How do I, How do I, Oh how do I breathe, without you. There would be no sun in my sky, no love in my life. There would be no world left for me, And I baby I don't know what I would do, I'd be lost if I lost you. And if you ever leave and baby you would take away everything real in my life. And tell me now, how do I live without you. I want to know. How do I breathe without you. If you ever go. How do I ever. ever say no. How do I. how do I Oh how do I live. Please tell me baby. How do I go on. If you ever leave, baby it would take away everything good in my life. And tell me now. how do I live without you. I want to know. How do I breathe without you. If you ever go. How do I ever, ever say no. How do I, how do I Oh how do I live." "Phenomenal. Let's hear it folks. You heard it hear first, this little lady is on her way to bigger and better things. Jessy can you ever forgive my rude crack that you were so beautiful it didn't matter if you could sing. This little lady sings, don't you agree folks." he said as Jessy took one more bow. "Mark my word this little lady will have recording labels lapping at her heels in no time. So what are you plans Jessy." he asked. "Singing isn't at the top, I have my sights set on this little house in the middle of nowhere with a white picket fence and yard full of happy, healthy, kids playing and laughing." Jessy answered. "Lucky fella. Well we sure hope you find time to sing for us again Jessy. We'll be looking for you name at the top of the charts, won't we folks. Remember that name, Jessy. " he said as Jessy took one last bow and she headed back to Zac and Chris. "You win Jessy. I just teased you and you turn around and tease the whole world. I concede, you are the bigger tease." Zac said bowing. "Show me the heels Jessy, I'll start lapping." Chris said as they headed to their table. "Okay no more business talk and no more teasing." Zac said. "Then let's talk about the house in the middle of nowhere, can we afford it, or do I have to sing for our house." Jessy asked. "Depends on how little?" Zac said. "Oh say six bedrooms." Jessy said, adding, "We can always double or triple the kids up." "You said little Jessy, that's as big as our house." Zac said. "You don't think we could fill it up." Jessy worried. "Yeah sure babe, but that's some major bucks. I think we better put out some duets and promote them so we can pay for it." Zac said as he ordered. "Cool we could do that." Jessy said as she ordered. "So Chris can you handle us too." Jessy asked. "In a heartbeat Jessy. What ever you'll do, we'll back you. You name." Chris said as he ordered. "I gotta call Momma, did anyone bring a.." Jessy stopped as they both offered her a cell and she dialed home. "Momma I need you to sign some recording contracts for me." Jessy said. "Fine baby and what planet are you on?" Barbara teased. "I'm on Planet Hollywood Momma, I just defeated Lee Ann Rimes in a sing off they had here and now this Possee from Mercury is after me with a contract." Jessy said. "Oh my what that smog does to a brain. Jessy are you saying you're at the restaurant Planet Hollywood with a recording label representative who wants to sign you on? Baby you know men will say almost anything to get what they want." Barbara said. "Yeah Momma but Chris is different, he signed Hanson so I think I can trust him. It's what I need to do Momma, Zac and I need money to build a house in the middle of nowhere." Jessy said, adding, "Just Do It Momma." "You're a weird one baby. Where and when?" Barbara said. "Chris how long before we need her signature?" Jessy said. "Give me a few days, I better stop by and see Walker, oh no tomorrow's Sunday. Scratch that I'll go into the office tomorrow and meet Walker Monday. Mid-week. Give me her number I'll keep in touch with her so she knows what's up." Chris said. "Midweek Momma. Chris is out of New York, I'll have him pick you up on the way out, okay?" Jessy asked as Chris nodded his head. "I'll be waiting to hear from Chris. You having a good time with Zac then?" Barbara asked. "Yep Zac and I are getting along great and someday we'll buy that house in the middle of nowhere and fill it with healthy, happy kids and Stories will be told." Jessy laughed. "That they will. Bye baby." Barbara said. "Bye Momma, Love you." Jessy said handing the phone back to Zac. "It's okay babe. Come here." Zac said wrapping an arm around her, as she laid her head on his shoulder. "I miss my folks too." Zac whispered as Jessy cuddled closer. "I know what. Chris give me that list of songs. Hey babe you know this one?" Zac asked. "Yeah hun, who doesn't?" Jessy said. "Then let's use the free publicity, right Chris?" Zac said. "Go for it kids." Chris said.
