At the Sheraton hotel, AJ is giving his first interview after he went solo, the backstreet boys already broke up and each has went in his own career

AJ was so happy cause he was a foot step away for singing up for a multi million dollar album deal

The reporter asks "so after this deal your singing up with Power Platinum United you will have a paved way for success right?"

AJ replies with a calm voice "Id rather not talk bout this right now but maybe later u can have an exclusive interview"

The young reporter blushes and says "is that a promise??"

He quickly answers "No it's a date"

She giggles as she turns off the little voice recorder placed half way on the table between them

She then asks the photographer to take a few pictures for the magazine to finish the interview

At a small restaurant near by Power Platinum United head office

Jim shouts "where the hell is Talton, we are late with our demo and we don’t have any thing to show the guys at PPU tomorrow, and it's our last day at the studio

Mike replies trying to calm Jim down " don’t worry he will be here, he just turned 18 and you know he boys like him are always late for big deadline that will affect there career for the rest of there life"

Mike pauses for a moment "Shit now I'm worried too"

Talton appears on his skate board "Hey guys, here I am"

Jim explodes shouting on Talton irresponsible behavior, but Talton calmly sits down and takes off his helmet to unveil his long brown hair just to hide his blue eyes, and he grabs a small snack from his back pack just to look at Jim like nothing happened

Jim takes a deep breath and calm him self down

"Do you have the lyrics ready, lets go to record the damn thing"

Mouth full of food he muffled out "no, it's not complete"

That was it for Jim; he exploded again shouting and throwing stuff

Mike interfered " hey don’t make a scene man, it will be ready for tomorrow just be cool"

Jim replied "will I can handle this any more, if we aren’t going to do any thing today im going home before this kid kills me"

A few minutes later after Jim left Mike asked Tall

"What's wrong with the lyrics Tall?"

Talton pulls up a small peace of paper and shows it to Mike

"Wow this stuff is good got to hand it to ya kid you got talent

He hands back to Talton and asks

"What's wrong why did you say it's not ready yet?"

Talton replied "I don’t think it's complete, some thing is missing"

"Will you will figure it out, lets leave it know"

Mike takes a quick glances around the half empty restaurant and leans over to Talton

"So what did you do with that girlfriend of your last night??"

Talton replied "we broke up, it didn’t work out"

"So what was wrong with this one, too Tall too short too stupid too blond"

" will I don’t know I just can't be like you "

" Like me ? "

" I just can't be to intimate with a girl unless it is true love "

" maybe that’s your problem "

" my problem "

" yes, your lyrics lacks love, your heart is just not in it yet, maybe cause you never gave your self a chance to love so how can you write about it ? "

They both just gazed into each others eyes silently for a minute

That evening, Talton was walking home about 9 pm, he was holding the small paper in front of him and thinking about what Mike said this afternoon

" my lyrics lacks love " he didn’t get it, he couldn’t understand love

" Love cant be like Mike does every day " Mike is a regular playboy, never goes home with out a girl rapped around his arm

Talton trips on a small pebble he manages to catch his balance only to drop his skate board and his paper fly away from him only to be caught by a dark figure walking in darkness intentionally avoiding the street lights

Talton picks up his skate board and heads to the stranger that he couldn’t see his face very will, all he could see was the burning light from his cigarette

He slowly approaches and from a safe distance he asks

" Sir, thank you for catching my paper, can I have it back please ? "

" this is yours "

His sound sends shivers down Taltons spine

" yes sir, can I have it back please "

The man walks closely to Talton but still Talton unable to see his face, the man crumbles the paper in his hand and throws it on the floor

" Kid you don't know what your doing "

He blows smoke in Taltons face and walks off
