Johnny lead them through a maze of cords, electrical boxes, and chaos as people bumbled around preparing for the big night. Soon they stood before a door with the initials "JT" printed on the surface. Johnny lead them inside.

"This is me?" Justin asked glancing about at the in scents and fruit platters. "This is you man." Johnny shot him with the finger guns and Rachel took a seat on the couch. Just then Johnny's phone went off.

"excuse me for a second." He said holding up a finger. "Uh huh, uhuh, alright I'll be right there. Sorry about that." He flipped the phone shut. "I gotta go handle some business real quick, but I'll be back to show you where they're thinking about having you open up the beginning song." As quick as a flash the manager disappeared out the door back out into the chaos.

"This is so comfortable!" Rachel beamed at Justin as she bounced lightly on the cushions . "See this was just like that couch I saw in the home improvements catalog. Remember I told you about it? Only that one was white. It would look so nice in the livingroom."

Justin popped a grape into his mouth and gave the chair a once over. "White gets too dirty and with a three year o-" He quickly bit his tongue.

"Oh! That's right!" Rachel leapt from the couch and dug in her purse for her phone. "I almost forgot to call and check up on Taylor-"

"Babe we just left!"

"I know, but still I just want to see if she knows to cut his ravioli right you know how he likes it in the little triangles instead of the squares and I bet she won't even give him his glow in the dark dino spoon and for-"

"Baby! Baby! Stop! BREATHE! He's fine." Justin took the phone from her hand and slid it into his back pocket. "I'm hanging on to this for now okay?"

For the next ten minutes they explored the dressing room finding all types of goodies from vanilla scented candles to complimentary Victoria Secret gift cards.

"Okay guys!" Johnny yelled enthusiastically clapping his hands together. Justin and Rachel peered at him in the doorway. "Well you comin' or no?" The couple followed him back out into the craziness and soon they were standing before a long black runway with bits of glitter sprinkled all over.

"So what we were thinking Justin." Said a skinny little man with thick glasses and dark hair. Rachel couldn't possibly keep up with all of who was who and incharge of what so she just assumed he was a production manager or something and continued to glance around at the beautiful set.

"We want you to be right......here!" said the producer leaping to a particular spot. "The smoke will be going, we'll have the dancer in the background on these screens..."

Justin stood with one arm folded over his gut and his hand at his chin as he took it all in. "And then we're gonna have a huge flash and that's when you come out! "I'm bringing sexy back!" He grinned making explosive gestures with his hands. "Got it?"

"Got it." Justin assured.

Rachel watched as the electricians adjusted the lighting on stage. For a moment she was mesmerized by the beautiful pinks and greens. It was like looking into one of the biggest lavalamp fiberoptic thingys you'd ever saw.

"Hey!" Justin barked snatching her hand into his. He grinned as she jumped and came back to Earth. "You wanna go get something to eat. They said they have a few more things to work on so I can't do my sound check right now."

"Okay, I think I saw a McDonalds somewhere around here."

Suddenly a chorus of giggles came from out of nowhere. Justin grinned as he stared off at something...or someone behind her. Rachel craned her neck to see two scantily clad women peeking around a tall set of speakers at the end of the stage.

Justin headed towards the girls trailing Rachel behind him. "Hello ladies." he greeted.

"Hiii." The two cooed in unison. Rachel viewed their gorgeous abs, toned limbs, and golden tans.

"Are you girls ready for the 'long walk?'" Justin gleamed.

"Pretty much. Just a few final touches." giggled one of the models. Rachel took notice of her beautiful long dark hair and cocoa complexion.

"I'm Selita Ebanks by the way." She shook Justin's hand politely.

"And I'm Karolina Kurkova." said the second girl. This one was blonde and grinned flirtaciously with a perfect set of teeth.

"I'm Justin."

"We know." The two cooed in unison once more. "And this is my girlfriend Rachel."

"Nice to meet you." Rachel smiled as shook their hands.

"Oh..." said Selita throwing Karolina a humorous face. "We heard you were taken." Rachel felt a sudden discomfort as she watched the two throw each other odd faces. "but..."

"How cute!" Karolina redeemed with a fake grin as she eye'd Rachel's sweats and messy ponytail. Rachel bit her tongue hard. She was waiting for one of them to pat her on the head at any minute like some kind of little puppy or child.

"Hmmm." the two sigh together. "Well.." concluded Selita. " We've got to get back to work. It was nice meeting you Michelle-"

"Rachel!" Rachel snapped. Justin threw his girlfriend a look and sqeaz her hand.

"Rachel... Well Justin we'll see you later. Don't burn up the runway."

"Bye Justin." They both waved as they walked off giggling and whispering.

Rachel glared after them with a sour face. "Hey." Justin said poking her in the side. "Why you being rude?" Rachel quickly looked at him in disbelief.

"Justin!" she shrieked. She couldn't believe he wanted her to spell it out for him. "Nevermind!" She sighed unpleasantly.

"You wanna go to McDonalds or no?" She nodded her head and they shuffled back through the chaos. They made their way outside and into the jet black explorer.
