Chapter 10

"What was he saying to you?!" Jennie asked, her brown eyes wide with excitement.

Katelyn blushed. "Nothing much," she said, trying to sound casual. Jennie stared at her.

"Kate, have you been crying?" she asked, looking concerned.

"Why would you think that?" Katelyn asked.

"You look like you have been. Your eyes are all red and puffy," Jennie told her. Katelyn knew there was no use trying to lie about it.

"Yeah, I was crying," she admitted sheepishly. "I was just so happy. I finally got to meet Brian. My dream came true tonight. I just couldn't help myself," she lied. It was partly true, but of course, that hadn't been the entire reason she had been crying.

"Oh, I understand," Jennie said, smiling and quickly hugging Katelyn. "I was so happy I thought I was going to burst. You know, I think AJ was flirting with me."

Katelyn grinned and rolled her eyes. "I think AJ flirts with everybody," she said.

Jennie just rolled her eyes and grinned. "Come on, we'd better go find out seats," she said. She and Katelyn hurried in and found their seats in the front row, just a few feet from the stage.

The music began for "Backstreet's Back", and the fans screamed loudly as Brian began to sing. The Boys performed the entire song.

"Hello, everyone!" Brian said, when the song had ended, turning to wave at each section of the stadium. "Welcome to out charity concert. All the proceeds of this show will go to the Brian Littrell Endowment for Pediatric Cardiology and the Healthy Heart Club." The fans screamed louder. "Now, this next song is the first single off our debut album and one of our old favorites. Here's "Quit Playing Games"!" The screaming increased in volume as the guys began "Quit Playing Games".
