Chap 19 ** surprise surprise **
A few days later, The guys, and there dancers sat out side the terminal waiting for there time to board.
"Are you excited?"Trisha asked her friend Nicole, who would be joining them for the first few weeks of the tour.
"Yeah, I just hope there wont be any hard feelings between me, and Howie"she replied as she looked over to see him reading the paper.
"I'm sure there wont, you guys are still friends right?"
"Yeah, but still things could get a little weird."
"Well I'm sure every thing will be fine."
"God where are they?"Sara asked referring to Nick, and AJ who still hadn't arrived at the airport.
"Sara don't worry they will get here soon!"Danni assured her.
After a few minutes they boarded the plane, just when it was about to take off, Nick, AJ, and Brittany there opening act came running through the doors.
"God I thought you wouldn't make it" Sara said with a sigh of relief.
"They wouldn't leave me behind, don't worry."
*************
"Can I sit here?"Brittany asked referring to the empty seat beside Brian. Brian quickly turned to the sound of the familiar voice, when he found that it was Brittany he shrugged, and turned back around. Brittany took her bag, and placed it in the over head compartment, and sat down. After a long while of silence she broke out in conversation.
"So.....how have you been Brian??"she asked hesitant at first.
Brian sat there for a minute then replied, "Good for someone who had his heart torn apart, and stomped on,.....you?"
"Uhhh.......ok I guess."
"Well that is so good to hear" he replied sarcastically.
"Brian please I'm not asking for a fight here!!"
"Yeah, well I didn't ask to get my heart broken either, but shit happens."
"Brian I'm sorry there's nothing much I can say to make things better between us, so please can we just try to get along"she asked in a pleading manner.
"Get along??? ha that'll happen!!"he remarked.
**********************************************
Trisha glanced over at AJ who was sitting in the seats across from her. She couldn't help, but notice the sad expression on his face as he sat there listening to Joe's "I wanna Know" blasting through his head phones, as she sat there listening to the words she finally realized why he kept replaying the song over and over again.The song seemed to represent the feeling he felt toward her.
"Nicole I'll be right back" she whispered as she got up, and went to sit next to AJ.
"AJ?" she said as she tapped his shoulder.
"Yeah" he replied. When he noticed it was Trisha he gave her a weak smile, until he remember what Nick had told him earlier on in the day.
"I wanted to say I'm sorry for all the stuff I've put you through in the last week, and I hope things can go back to the way they were before."
"As long as it makes you happy Trisha, I don't know if things can go back to the way they were before, it just wont be the same."he replied quietly.
"What do you mean AJ?"
"After what happened between us....it just wont be the same!!!" he replied.."Can we please discuss this later Trisha?"
"Yeah, AJ" she said as she went back over to Nicole.
"What happened?"she asked curiously.
"I don't know he's acting really strange!"
They soon arrived at the hotel, got there #s, and headed up to there rooms.Trisha walked into room 111, and through her bags down, Nick shared the room next to her with Brian, Howie shared one with Nicole, Kevin and Kate requested there room together a head of time, and of course got it. Aj looked down at the key, and walked into room 111.As he sat his stuff down, and went to lay on the bed. Trisha walked out of the bathroom, she nearly screamed when she saw the figure of him in the distance then realizing it was AJ walked over to him.
"So I take it were sharing a room together?"
"Yeah it looks that way!"she replied.
"Why aren't you sharing with Brian?"he asked his heart aching speaking his name.
"Why would I?"
"Why do you think??"he asked bitterly.
"I really don't know why don't you tell me?"
"Because Trisha, that's what you want, you want Brian"he said in an out burst.
"No, who said that?"
"Nick, you were kissing him, and Nick said that you guys were probably going to hook up."
"Well Nick doesn't know what he's talking about!!!"
"Yeah, but that still doesn't explain why you were caught kissing him."
"Yes AJ I did kiss him, but straight after that I told him I only wanted him as a friend, and that I was in love with some one else"she replied as she took AJ's hand, and caressed it gently.
"So you aren't with Brian?"
"No, silly I thought I was with you?"
"You are"he replied, and leaned in, and kissed her softly.
**********************************
Later that night Kevin, and Katie told every one to go to the MGM, and meet them because they had some very important news to share with every one, and to dress nicely because they were going to go, and have dinner there treat.
Trisha soon called over Sara, and Nicole for a quick wardrobe change, after a while the three found an outfit, Sara wore some khaki capris and a tight light pink tanktop, Trisha wore a knee length yellow floral skirt , and a tight white spaghetti strap shirt.Nicole had on a pair of black pants, and a baby blue tee.
"You guys does this look ok?"Nicole asked not to sure if she looked appropriate or not.
"Yes Nicole that looks cute!!!"Sara replied.
"Ok just making sure."
The three then went down the stairs, Sara left as soon as she saw Nick. As Nicole, and Trisha walked out into the lobby AJ, and Howie came strolling up.
"Hey guys"Nicole said as she waved them over there.
"Hey lady's you look nice tonight?"Howie said as he took Nicole by the arm.
"You can say that again!!" AJ replied wide eyed as he took Trisha by the hand.
"Well thank you!!!" Trisha replied as Nicole blushed.
They soon arrived at the Mgm, and met up with every one, they were soon seated, and begun a heavy conversation. After a hour or so every one had finished there meals, and Kevin had the waiter bring out the Champaign.
"Ok guys this is what you have all been waiting for"he said as Katie stood along with him.He quickly glanced at Katie , and made sure it was the right time, Katie gave him the look, and he announced.."Were getting Married" He said grabbing Kate's hand, and showing off the ring.Every one dropped what they were doing, and stared at them.
"What??"They asked in unison.
"Ummm....... well it was unexpected that's all"Brian managed to speak out.
"Oh.. but your happy for us right?"
"Of course Kevin!!!!! we are all happy for you guys!!!...right?"
"Yeah!!!!"
"So happy!"
