The reason, I put this picture up on this page is because it looks just like Angel Mckennie in the story. I picture her this way.
Summer found her seat, and sat down. A girl next to her turned her head and smiled. "Um....I know it's non of my business, but is your sister alright?" asked the girl. "Well, no she is not alright, her best friend died a month ago and she is still greiving over him." Summer replied. "Oh lord, I hope she is going to be alright. By the way, my name is Sarah." she said extending her hand. "Nice to meet ya, my name is Summer. My sister that just went backstage her name is Angel." Summer said shaking her hand. "So, who is your favorite?" Sarah asked. "Howie all the way!! He is so buff!!" Summer said laughing a little. "My favorite is Brian, he has the most beautiful eyes!!" Sarah said with this dreamy look on her face. "Do you have backstage passes?" asked Summer. "Oh yea, I wouldn't miss this for the world!!" she said excitedly. Summer didn't tell Sarah about the dreams that Angel was having. She decided until she could trust this person, she would just keep it a secret. "Hey look, they are starting the show!!" Sarah exclaimed. "Cool, let's stand up!! Maybe they will pick us to come on stage!!" Summer exclaimed. So Summer and Sarah stood up and started to scream and dance to the music of "Boys Will Be Boys".. I just hope my sissy is alright. she thought as she started screaming when she saw Howie.

Dear God
As much as I hate to say this.......but, I want to die!! I have nothing to live for in my life. I am hopelessly depressed. I miss him so much lord.......What do I do? I'm having dreams about this Nick person, and I don't know who or where he could be! This is really driving me crazy, so please lord, just take me right now!! I wish I was dead..........
While Angel was praying and crying, she didn't notice the little boy walking over to her. He plopped down right beside her and smiled. "Hey.....why are you crying?" he asked concerned. "Um.....nothing." she said too quickly. "No it's not nothing. Please tell me, why are you sad?" he asked concerned. She cleared her throat. "Um....I lost someone about a month ago, and I'm really missing him." she said with tears pouring down her face. "Oh, was he your boyfriend?" the little boy asked. "Yes, at one moment in time. He was very special to me." she said looking at him. "I bet you miss him alot? Since I'm only ten, could you explain to me how he was?" he asked. "Well, he was really sweet, and he cared so much for me and his family. He never got into any fights with people. He was always there when I needed him, I....I...I....I loved him so much!" she stuttered trying not to cry, but the tears came all at once. "Oh God Miss, I'm so sorry!! I didn't mean to make you cry!!" he said worried. "No, you didn't make me cry. When you get a little older, you will feel this way when someone has passed on. It's not a good feeling, and sometimes you get over it just like that, and then again sometimes it seems it goes on forever." she said patting his shoulder. "Wheeeewwww!! Oh by the way, my name is Aaron Carter!" he said proudly. Angel laughed. "I know, I saw you on stage. You are good little man, do you get it from your parents?" she asked. "Yep, but mostly from my bigger brother Nick!" he said. "Nick? Where is he now?" she asked. "Silly, he is one of the Backstreet Boys! Don't you know anything about them?" he asked. "No, I'm not a fan. My sister got us backstage passes and front row seats, and practically begged me to come with her tonight!" she said laughing. "Wow!! Hey since you don't know them, do you want to go up to the side stage and watch behind the curtain?" he said. "Sure!" she said taking his hand. "Hey I didn't get your name?" he said. "Just call me Angel." she said laughing. Aaron and her walked up to the stage and peeped out the curtain. She saw four guys and another blonde that was turned around. He looks familiar. she thought. Then he turned her way and they both froze. She covered her mouth with her hands. "Oh my god!!! It's him!!! It's.....It's my Nick, "dream man"!!!" she gasped. Aaron looked up at her with suspicion. "Your Nick? What do you mean?" he asked puzzled. "Nothing.....I gotta go!!" she said turning to run but didn't know why. Tears started streaming down her face ruining her make-up. How? When? Oh My God, it's my Nick, my love! she thought running over to the couch. She thought about JoJo, and Nick. All these thoughts came pouring into her mind. She buried her head in her hands, not knowing what to think, she was so confused.
~*Meanwhile*~
We was in the middle of the first song, when Nick thought he was being watched. Of course he was being watched by millions of fans, but this was a different feeling. He was turning around towards the curtain backstage area, when he stopped dead in his tracks. There she was, his Dream woman, Angel!! Their eyes locked for a brief moment. Then she disappeared backstage. I have to go find her!! He thought. He was walking off the stage when Brian grabbed his arm. "Nick, where are you going? We have the rest of the show to do!" Brian whispered. "She's here Brian, I've found her, but she disappeared backstage!!" Nick said trying to run from Brian's grasp. "Dude, I think it's just your imagination, besides if it's her, she will wait for you!" Brian said. "I guess you are right, we do have to go backstage before the show ends to change, so I hope to find her back there then." Nick said. They finished the first set, with him thinking about her. He was getting excited about the fact that he had finally found her.
~*Backstage*~
Jane Carter was giving orders in the very back when she heard all the commotion. What is that?! It sounds like a girl crying! she thought. She headed up front to see what it was. When she rounded the corner, there on the couch was a girl, and Aaron was sitting there comforting her. The girl has been hurt. she thought. She walked over to Aaron and the girl. "Hey there, is everything ok here?" she asked. Aaron looked up with a worried expression on his face. "Mom, I don't know what to do, she won't stop crying! She took one look at Nick on stage and started back crying!" he said worried. Jane sat down right beside Angel. "Hey, sweetheart, are you ok? Want to talk about it?" she asked. "I lost my best friend a month ago, and I miss him. That boy onstage reminded me of him." she lied. Angel could'nt tell her that she had dreamed about this guy, and didn't even know him! She would think she was crazy! "Oh hunny, I'm so sorry! Nick is my son, and this little one too here is too. My name is Jane Carter." she said pointing to him. Aaron just cracked alittle smile. "Nice to meet you Mrs. Carter. My name is Angel Mckennie." Angel said extending her hand. Jane took her hand. "Just call me Jane. Everyone does. Now, will you tell me about your friend, that might make you feel better." Jane said smiling. Angel told her everything about JoJo, and about how she still talks to him in her dreams. "Oh God, I miss him so much Jane! I don't know what to do?!!" she said buriing her head in her hands and sobbed. Jane threw her arms around Angel, and she leaned on Jane shoulder. "Shhhh, sometimes when these things happen, they do it for a reason. Maybe God thought it was his time to go, and God had better plans for you and him. I believe that your friend is in a better place." Jane said trying to comfort him. "I know, but I feel like I'm dying inside, and it makes me want to just kill myself so I can be with him!" she said crying. "You are going to feel that way, but if you talk to God, he will show you the right way. Please don't do anything stupid Angel, I wouldn't want you to get hurt." Jane said smiling. They sat there for awhile with Jane holding Angel trying to comfort her. "Mom, the first set is finished." Aaron said. "Ok, you go see to it that Nick gets his right clothes on." she said. Aaron got up and ran to the back.
~*Coming Backstage*~
The boys were coming off the stage, Brian in the lead and Nick was last. He was getting antsy about meeting his love. But what was he going to tell her? Hi, I dream about you and I'm in love with you? Oh yea right Nick good one!! he thought. Maybe I will wait until after the show to talk to her. he thought. Brian was just coming backstage when he heard sobbs. He looked over on the couch to see a young girl about Nick's age, and Jane his mom holding on to her while she sobbed. He walked over. He looked at her. "Hey, what's going on?" Brian asked. "She just had a friend to pass away about a month ago, and she is still greiving, and misses him alot." Jane said looking up. He looked over at the girl. "Miss, don't cry. I'm sorry that it happend, but in times like these, I look to the lord for help. What is your name by-the-way?" he asked getting curious. She looked up at him. "Thanks for the advice. My name is Angel Mckennie." she said to Brian. Oh my god, Nick was right! It's his Angel!! he thought. He touched her shoulder, and said. "Nice to meet you, and I'm sorry about your friend. I have to go change for the next set. Maybe I will see you later." he said. "Maybe, see ya." she said smiling alittle. He ran to go change backstage. I knew it was her, by her name!! he thought changing into his suit for the next set.
Nick was coming off the stage, when he saw her, and his mother. She was crying and his mother was holding her. I wished that were me holding her. he thought. Don't talk to her until after the concert. A little voice said in the back of his mind. He waved to his mother and rushed back to change his clothes. "So, did you talk to her?" Brian asked when Nick came through the door. "Not yet, I will talk to her after the show. Did you get her name?" he sounded eager. "Yep, and her name is Angel Mckennie! It's her, the description you gave me. The long brown hair, beautiful eyes, and didn't you see what she was wearing man?" Brian asked. "No, I didn't. What was she wearing?" Nick asked. "You remember what you told me that she wore in your dreams? The white dress, with the ruffles all over it? That is what she was wearing. And I don't think she is a fan, because she didn't even freak out when she saw me." Brian said. "Thank the lord! Not that I don't want her to love our music, but I want her to be loving me for me, that is when the time comes I mean." Nick said quickly covering his tracks. "See man, I told you. You are in love with her. And no matter what, if she starts to fall in love with you, she always be there for you and be your number one fan." "Thanks for the advice Bri." "No prob, Now let's get out there and do the rest of the show!" he said grabbing his best friend, and pulling him to the front to go back on stage.
