Anyone still out there besides Ais and Ashley? Uh-oh...
004.
The following morning I woke up around 9 and shook Kathryn until she awoke as well.
“Come on,” I whispered as though not to wake my mom; we tip-toed out of the bedroom and into the kitchen.
“Good morning mom!” Kathryn and I walked back into the bedroom with a plate of eggs, bacon, and an English muffin, a cup of coffee the way she liked it, and a glass of water on a tray. “All we could find as a tray was a cookie sheet hope you don’t mind.” My mom sat up in bed and smiled.
“What’s this for?” She asked. Kathryn and I shrugged as I handed her the tray. “Well thank you girls!” We sat at the edge of her bed while she ate.
“Oh I know what you’re up to…” She said a few minutes later. Kat and I smiled as my mom rolled her eyes. “I just don’t know how comfortable I am with you two hanging out with them. You’ve put me in an awkward position, you know that?”
“Sorry mom, but look, we’ll have our cell phones with us. Plus it’s not like we’re out walking around a city, it’s just the resort.” She sighed.
“I guess you can go.” Kathryn and I jumped up and hugged my mom.
“Thank you so much!”
“Thanks Mrs. Lafferty!”
“You’re welcome girls, just be careful.”
“We will, don’t worry!”
We got dressed quickly then headed down the hall towards the elevators.
“You should probably call Joe, right?” Kathryn asked. I nodded and took the small slip of paper out of my pocket.
“I still can’t grasp any of this; it feels like a dream or something.” I said dialing his number and putting the phone to my ear.
“I know,” I put up a finger when Joe picked up.
“Hello?”
“Hi Joe, it’s Megan.”
“Megan! I…er, we were hoping we’d hear from you two. So what’s up?” I smiled at hearing his voice on my cell phone.
“Kat and I are headed down to the lobby right now. Wanna meet us in a bit?”
“Yep, I’ll just get Nick and Kevin and we’ll head down. See you in a few.”
“Okay,” I ended the call and pressed my back against the elevator walls. This is crazy, how many fans get this opportunity?! Not many I can tell you that…
We had only been sitting in the lobby for maybe five minutes when the boys showed up.
“Hello,” Kevin said; except it sounded more like ‘hay-low’.
“Hey,” Kathryn and I said at the same time.
“So we were thinking we could just grab some lunch outside and figure things out from there. How does that sound?” Joe offered.
“Sounds good,” I said getting up from the couch, Kathryn following behind.
“Where’s Big Rob?” Kathryn asked.
“We told him he didn’t need to come,” Nick answered.
“Why? Aren’t you worried about being eaten alive by fans and paparazzi?” The guys laughed and shook their heads.
“Nah not really, I mean I’m sure we’ll have people coming up to us but we’re in a private resort.” Nick said.
“Oh okay,”
