SHINING STAR

Chapter 2

"Danielle", Ashley called as she walked into her room.

"Huh?", Danielle said yawning and sitting up in her bed. Ashley and Danielle were best friends, they lived together in a house in New York and went to college on the side.

"Phone, it’s your mom", Ashley told her.

"Figures it has to be her to interrupt me in my perfect dream", Danielle grinned.

"Dani gee let me guess your dreaming about Nick Carter of the Backstreet Boys. Why does he keep coming up in your dreams?’, Ashley asked.

"I have no clue, but I don’t care they are nice dreams. I keep telling him that we’re gonna meet or something", Danielle said shaking her head as she got up.

"Ya know even though he is the famous Backstreet Boy, they say dreams do tell you the future sometimes", Ashley explained to her.

"Yeah I know, but I wouldn’t want to get involved into one of those kind of relationships", Danielle answered as they both walked down the stairs. Danielle went into the kitchen and got on the phone.

"Ok mom, yes I know, I love ya too, later", Danielle said as she hung up the phone.

"What’s up with the tone?", Ashley laughed, "Sounds like your mom was telling you something that you didn’t want to hear?"

"Oh yea she wants me to come over the house ASAP cause she says that I have to finish my wash cause she said she wasn’t gonna do it and everybody else has wash to do and they are waiting on mine to get done", Danielle sighed, "Wanna come?"

Ashley laughed, "If I come I’m not doing your wash for you"

"Yeah yeah I know, I’ll do it this time", Danielle smiled as she went back up to her room to get ready to go. A few minutes later she came back down ready as Ashley sat down on the couch watching the tv.

"You know what Dani?", Ash asked.

"What?", Danielle responded.

"We shouldn’t have spent all that money we had for the BSB concert tickets on that trip we went on, they say that this Black & Blue tour is gonna be one of the best tours out of all their concerts", Ashley told her.

"Yeah I know, this sucks", Danielle agreed, "Well….ready to go?"

"Yeah", Ashley nodded as they left the house and got in Danielle’s car and drove to Danielle’s parent’s house.

*At Danielle’s Parent’s House*

"Mom you home??", Danielle called as her and Ashley walked through the front door. The house was silent. "Ok, where is everybody?", Ashley asked.

"You got me, I have no clue. She said she would…", Danielle said as she was interrupted.

"I am home", her mom answered as she came up from the basement and sat down the basket of Danielle’s clothes all done.

"Um I don’t think I’m gonna ask why you finished my clothes", Danielle said raising her eyebrows as she quickly pick up the basket and took it outside to put in her trunk.

"Ok Ashley since Danielle is not in here now. This is why I had you guys come here", Danielle’s mom whispered as she picked up an envelope and handed it to Ashley, "Don’t open it now, hide it in your purse and I want you to open it at your guys house together"

"Ok thanks", Ashley smiled but confused and curious of what was in it.

"Please tell me if Danielle and you like it", her mom said in a sad voice.

"I will", Ashley responded as she sensed something was up.

"Thank You", she told her as she began to tear up in the eyes a little as she gave her a hug.

"Ok that’s done with", Danielle came in smiling as her smile began serious, "Mom you look like your gonna cry, you alright?"

"Honey I’m fine", she told her with a fake smile, "You guys don’t have to stay around here much longer cause I have to go make a trip somewhere"

"Ok mom, thanks a lot. Love ya", Danielle nodded as she hugged her mom.

"Goodbye honey. I love you too", her mom began to say a little choked up.

"Mom, you sure your alright?", Danielle asked worried.

"Yes I’m fine honey", she smiled again. Danielle and Ashley then said goodbye again and left in Danielle’s car.
