Years Ago, In A Far Away Place

Chapter 1

"Where the hell is Nick?" Kevin asked as the guys assembled in their manager's office. They were meeting their new tour manager for the first time that day and Nick was late. "Talk of the shit for brains and he appears" Kevin muttered as Nick walked non chalantly into the room and took a seat beside Brian.

"Okay guys, glad to see you could all make it. I am going to give you a quick briefing on your new tour manager and then I will introduce her to you." Mark, one part of their management team explained. "Her name is Molly Timmons and she is 26. She is a graduate of Harvard University with a degree in Art History and Business Administration. She was in charge of N'Sync's summer tour last year and more recently she just finished touring with Cher. She has gotten excellent reviews and I think she is the new vibe we need on this tour. Any questions?"

"IS she hot?" AJ Grinned

"I know that I don't have to remind you of what your contract says about dating within the organization, do I?" Mark said sternly.

"Nope" AJ frowned .

"Let me go get her" Mark left the room and the guys started talking.

"She is so young, do you actually think that she will be able to take care of all the demands?" Nick asked.

"You guys she has the experience and a proven track record, so stop with the macho bull shit" Skylar, Kevin's fiancé interjected.

"Yes Gloria Steinam" Kevin said sarcastically as he kissed his girlfriend.

The guys grew quiet when a petite, cute, brunette walked into the room following Mark.

Molly looked around the room and studied the faces that were staring back at her. She smiled at the cute blonde who Mark introduced as Nick Carter, she stifled a laugh when she saw the bright orange hair of the boy called AJ, she was charmed by the accents of the cousins called Kevin and Brian and she was instantly comfortable with the warm and friendly smile of Kevin's fiancé Skylar. Her gaze fell on the dark haired man in the corner of the room, and her heart turned cold and her expression molded into one of instant dislike. Her eyes met the eyes of the man she had loathed for years and she frowned as the introduction was made. She dropped his hand as if it was on fire and she turned her attention back to Mark, ignoring the confused looks of the other band members.

"I like her, I think she is just what you guys need to keep your asses in line" Skylar remarked as the group sat around the table eating their lunch and discussing the new woman who would be in charge of their tour.

"What I want to know is why was she so rude to D? I mean did you see the look she gave him and how fast she changed the subject when he was introduced, my god everyone loves Howie" AJ said.

"Get your act together Molly, damn you are going to have to work with him so forget about it and move on" Molly was sitting in her new office trying to look over her contract that she needed to sign, but her mind was on Howie. "I never thought I would see that prick again" Molly threw aside her thoughts and tried to concentrate on the contract in front of her.

"Why would she do that? We just met, what made her treat me like that?" Howie was sitting in the recording studio trying to work on some riffs but his mind kept going back to the woman he had been introduced to. He had never been treated so rudely and he was having a hard time accepting it.

"Maybe I remind her of someone she hates or something, whatever." Howie started editing the solo.
