Charisma stared at the pictures that filled her walls. They
were mostly BSB but a majority were pictures of Brian. She felt like she had grown closer to him
since she felt his pain most of the time.
She never knew why she did. Maybe
there was some connection or bond between them, but she really doubted it. She lay back on her bed and closed her eyes.

She watched as the room started to fill with reporters with
their tape recorders or note pads in their hands ready to get all the good gossip.
They finally stopped filling the room and the door closed. A few minutes later
five guys came out of the room, and she noticed it was the five that she had
admired for a long time since the first dream. She spotted Brian who seemed a
bit pale but no one seemed to notice. They sat down at the table with nametags
and water bottles on it. The hands flew up as soon as they got comfortable and
the chunky man, who she learned was Lou Pearlman, picked one of them. The woman
stood up and held out her tape recorder.
"Mr. Littrell what’s the news you've been waiting to tell us? Is it
finally marriage?" the woman asked as Brian looked at her.
"Actually, it's not marriage. About a few month
sago, I discovered the hole in my heart
had grown larger instead of shrunken," Brian said as more hands were shot
up like bullets. Lou picked another
reporter as he stood up.
"Is it serious?" he asked.
"It would
become serious if I didn’t have a surgery scheduled," Brian said as the
reporter sat down.
"A surgery?" the next reporter asked.
"Yes, I had to schedule a surgery, which will be
during the tour," Brian said.
"When will it be?" another reporter asked.
"May eighth," Brian said as Lou walked out in
front of the table.
"I’m sorry, but the guys have to get to their
next performance now," he said as the reporters watched the guys walk out
of the room, and Charisma's dream started to fade to black.
