Chapter 1. I heard terrible beeping noise next to my ear. At first I couldnt figure
out what it was and I just wished it would stop. But when it didnt, I had to collect
all my strength to open my eyes. It was my alarm clock, waking me up. I didnt want
to get up, but I knew I had to. I took my trousers from the chair next to my bed and
pulled them on. Then it was turn for my shirt. After getting clothes on, I wandered to
kitchen. I made breakfast and some coffee. While waiting the coffee to drop, I went to get
my paper. While eating I tried to read the paper, but since being morning tired, I
couldnt concentrate much. But something caught my eye.
Heh! Linda has won a meeting with the Backstreet Boys.
Linda was my best friend for many years. She has been Backstreet Boys fan since the
beginning. And I knew she would be thrilled! I knew she didnt get the paper, so I
decided to call her and let her know.
She answered after few beeps.
Linda
Hi! I bet you havent read paper yet?
How could I? I havent subscribed it! She said.
Well, Im happy to announce to you: Youve won a meeting with the
Backstreet Boys!!
What did you say? She asked without believing me. Please, dont fool me
with that kind of subject! You know how much I love the guys!
Im not joking, stupid, I said laughing.
OH MY GOD!! Linda started shouting.
Congratulations!! I said and I was really happy for her. So will I pick you up
today when I go to school and drop you off at your work place?
Sure! See ya then!! Linda said hanging up.
I did my morning stuff before leaving. I drove at Lindas and she came out
immediately and she had smile from ear to another!
Hi!
Hi hi! I couldnt help smiling.
Im so happy!! Ive wished this for years!! And guess what, I can get a
friend with me there!!
I smiled at her enthusiasm.
Umm
Would you like to come with me? I know youre not so much into guys,
but I know you think Nicks good looking guy. So now youve got your chance to
meet him in person.
Hmm
OK. I said to her. I actually wanted to see Nick Carter in person.
Then its settled! You come with me!
When is it? I asked from her, when I slowed down at the parking lot of her working
place.
Next weekend when they will be performing at the Arena.
OK.
But hey Ill phone to you later about more details!
Bye, I answered to her.
Bye! |
Chapter 2. Soon came the long waited weekend. On Friday, Linda and I went
shopping. She wanted to get new trousers and a shirt. She wanted to look her best.I
decided to wear just clothes that I had in my wardrobe. On Saturday morning, I took a bath
and put on black tank top and jeans. I applied little make up and then, after putting the
shoes on, ran to the car because I was a little bit late. I drove at Lindas as fast
as I could. She was already waiting there.
I thought you wasnt coming after all. She said, looking relieved that I
finally came.
Im sorry, but I woke up little bit late.
Nah, its OK! We are going there now, so everything is just OK!
We drove at the arena where the meeting would take place. We were there fifteen minutes
early but it didnt matter. There were other fans waiting there, to get best places
in concert.We went to the back door and showed our backstage passes which Linda had gotten
when they sent a congratulations letter to her. Once we got inside there was another guard
standing there and we told him why we were there and showed our backstage passes again. He
lead us to one busy looking woman who was yelling at a cellular phone at the moment when
we arrived.
God damned! Work with me! I need those things when we come back there. But I have to
go now! She said and hang up.
Hello girls! And my apologies for what you had to hear! She said smiling friendly at
us. She introduced herself and told that she was one of the boys stylists.She lead us to
one of the dressing rooms. It was huge and had sofa in there.
Please, sit down, take something to drink and eat, boys will come here soon! She
said, leaving us waiting there.
Linda sighed deeply.
Wow! I guess Ive never been this excited in my life!
Calm down, everything will be Ok, I said. Though I wasnt such a big fan, I
could feel butterflies in my stomach.Soon the door was opened and someone peeked in. Then
somebody pushed him from the back and he came in flying. At the second he got up, I
realized who he was. The world famous Nick Carter. And after him came the rest of the
fellows. Linda was white like a ghost. I was sure she would faint in a minute.
Hello girls! Brian said grinning widely.
Hello to you all! I said, smiling and Linda manage to get some kind of mixture of a
smile and frown.
Im sorry about my friend. I think shes going to faint soon, I said
with a big smile on my face. Linda hit me with her elbow and sent angry look to me. I just
continued smiling without caring the pain in my side.
Its nice to you meet you! Im Sabrina and this is my friend Linda. I
extended my hand and they all shook it and introduced themselves though I already knew who
they were.
At the second Nick was shaking Lindas hand she dropped to the floor. Nick looked
amazed and still continued holding his arm extend when I kneeled next to my friend, trying
to wake her.
She opened her eyes, but shut them again when she saw that guys were still in.
This isnt happening! Im having a nightmare, I didnt faint in
front of the Backstreet Boys, no I didnt
she mumbled.
Boys found it hard to not burst out on laugh, and they couldnt help but laugh. I
started laughing too, and I pulled red Linda up from the ground.
Why do I always screw up? Linda said, nearly in tears. When Brian saw that, he
came to hug Linda.
Hey, dont cry, he said. But he shouldnt have said that, because
then she burst out on tears. She wrapped her arms around Brian and just sobbed against his
shoulder.
Shes little sentimental, please dont mind. I said, because I knew
how she felt. I probably would have done the same.
Lets leave them here, Kevin said and escorted me out of the room.
Lets go, they will follow later, when Linda is OK, he continued when I
hesitated to leave Linda. But then I thought that she would be OK.
We walked to place where we met the busy lady.
Hi! He greeted the woman.
Hi to you too! Oh, youve seem to lose another girl. And wheres
Brian? She asked looking amazed.
Nick told her the short version of whole story and asked if she could tell to Brian that
we went to the stage. She promised to tell him.Then we walked to the stage. I had never
thought how it would feel to be up there, but now I knew. Of course, it would feel
different when hundreds of fans were inside.
Wow, I said.
Yep, AJ said. Thats the right word!
They walked with me around the stage and then Kevin, AJ and Howie said they would go to
see Brian and Linda. Nick asked me to stay with him on stage and when I nodded as yes, he
pulled me to sit on the edge of the stage. We started to talk about different kinds of
things. All the time I felt like getting closer to Nick as a person. Right before
everybody else came on stage to show places to Linda, Nick wanted to know something.
Do you remember what places your tickets to the concert are? He asked.
Oh, they were somewhere up there, I pointed with my hand to back of the arena.
So you dont have so good places? What do you say about these? Nick said
extending tickets to my direction.
First row! Wow! Gee, thanks! I said, my face shining when I smiled.
Your welcome. Nick said, smiling too. When I looked at him, I knew the feeling
in my body. I was about to fall in love. |
