A week later,they had crossed over to the west coast,then they would make their way across the north,and back back to the east. Now,they were in LA,where they would be for 4 days.

"Zac,why are we here for so long?"Rebecca asked.

"We all have to do a photo shoot tommorrow. Then the next nite we have a concert,and we have another one the next nite."

"Oh yah. What do you mean by all of us have a photo shoot?"

"They want pictures of us with you girls too."

"Cool!"

"I guess. It's tiring though. "

"I know." The next morning someone was shaking Rebecca.

"Zac,i don't wanna get up. It's early."

"I know Babe,i'm sorry. It's only 5:20am,but we have to go to the photo shoot." He gently pulled her up into his arms and she almost fell back asleep with her head against his chest.

"C'mon you two,we gotta get ready to go,"Taylor coaxed.

"Ok." Zac got up and left and Rebecca rolled off the side of the bed. She threw on some jeans and a baby tee.

"Now,you are Rebecca,and you're Katherine. Where's Amy?" the photographer asked.

"Oh,she's got the flu,she can't come,"Walker lied.

"Oh,well,where is Isaac?"

"He's with her."

"So we have 4 people?"

"Yes."

"Well,that will have to work. Now everyone go to the wardrobe room,Kella is waiting for you there." The 4 teens walked to the wardrobe room,while Diana and Walker stayed with Franco,the photographer. The little kids were at the hotel with Amy and Isaac.

"Hello!"Kella greeted them cheerfully.

"Hi Kella,"Taylor said. They had worked with her numerous times before.

"You must be Rebecca,and Katherine."

"Yes."

"Nice to meet you both." Both of them smiled sleepily.

"Ok,now back to work. Guys,go through those two closets over there,any of it will probably do. It's some things that you've said you liked."

"Ok."

"Now girls,let's go next door." The 3 girls left the room.

"Rebecca,what size are you?"

"About a 1 or a 2."

"I wish i could still wear a 2. What about you Katherine?"

"About a 4,maybe a 5."

"Small too. Here's some clothes that will work. What colors do you like?" They walked over to a few closets and a trunk.

"I like blues and greens,they bring out my eyes,"Rebecca stated.

"Ok,that's very good. Katherine?"

"I'll wear anything,not too wild though. And i like white."

"Ok." Soon,they decided on a multi-colored,retro looking,slacker length skirt for Rebecca,along with a blue tube top and platforms,which she insisted on to make her taller. Katherine wore white hip-huggers,that had a big flare at the bottom,with a pink and white floral polyester shirt that had butterly wing arms(where the arms flare as they go downward).

"Babe,you look wonderful,"Zac whispered to her.

"Thanks,so do you." He had on orange pants and a black tee-shirt,that fit tight to his chest.

"Kella,you did a wonderful job on them!"Franco praised.

"Thanks. They're all ready."

"Alright. Kids stand in the middle of the room." The room was white..walls,floor,ceiling.

"Ok now,Zac,stand behind Rebecca,and put your head on her right shoulder. Good,good. Katherine,stand between Taylor and the otehr two,and Taylor,put your arm around her turn your body a little bit inward towards the others." The picture was perfect,Franco snapped a few shots,then told them to move around. A fter up to 20 minutes he suggested something else.

"How about we get some just of each couple."

"That works,"Walker agreed.

"Ok,Taylor,Katherine,go get some breakfast. I'll work with the younger ones first."

"K!"

"Alright now Rebecca,you sit down. Zac stand behind her. Rebecca,lean your head agaisnt him. Ok,good,now,Zac put one hand on her shoulder,and the other on the side of her face." They did exactly as he said. They moved around a bit.

"Good,great. That's good. Try this,both of you lay down,facing up." He walked over to them,"Ok,now Zac,put your arm under her head,and Rebecca lean your face to him. Ok,but you have to look up,i'm going to put the camera above you. Good,that's perfect,stay there." He moved the camera close to them and positioned it above them. After about 10 minutes,he informed them that he wanted them to keep straight faces,so it looked more mysterious he said. They did.

"Alright,we've done an hour with just you two. I'll get Taylor and Katherine now. Then we'll get some together,and then then some more of just the couples." Rebecca and Zac walked off the set.

"That was kinda fun Zac."

"My face hurts from smiling." She kissed him.

"Better?"

"Almost." She kissed him again.

"Now?"

"Getting there." She french kissed him.

"What about that?"

"I'm better."

"Good. Ya know,i think those last pictures,of us not smiling and laying down are gonna be the best."

"Probably. But we weren't smiling in alot of them anyways."

"That's true. There's a few where i'm laughing though,because you were ticking me a little bit."

"It'll be cute though." They got some food from Walker and Diana and sat down to eat with Kella.

"How's it going so far?"

"Pretty good. She likes it,"Zac smiled.

"You do?"

"Uh huh. I've always like having my picture made for some reason."

"That's wonderful." Finaly,they left at 6 that night.

"Zac,me and Katherine are gonna go down to the clinic. K?"Rebecca said after they were in the room for about an hour.

"Why?"

"I'm gonna get some pills." He knew what she meant.

"You want me to go with you?"

"No,it's ok. It would probably be a little uncomfortable for you."

"I don't mind. Really."

"I know,but if you go then there's alot better chance of someone noticing one of us going to a gyno clinic. There's fans everywhere. I'll see you later Honey,"she laughed and kissed him. Then she went to inform Katherine of her plans.

"Rebecca,i don't wanna go."

"Katherine,i need something."

"Rebecca,you can get some Midol or whatever in the lobby."

"I don't need Midol. Kat,i wanna go to the clinic down the road and get some birth control."

"What?"

"Please,Kat,you have to come. I have to have someone over 14 with me."

"Why don't you just use condoms."

"They're too much trouble,and i don't like the way they feel." Katherine rolled her eyes and sighed.

"Fine,but how are you gonna pay for the pills?"

"Zac,he gave me some money yesterday to get something when we got here."

"Ok,fine. Let's go and get this over with."

"Thank you so much Katherine!" They caught a cab and got out about 3 blocks later.

"Yes,we need a perscription of birth control,"Katherine informed the woman at the desk.

"How old are you Miss?"

"15,almost 16. Here's my driver's permit to prove it."

"Ok. It'll be about 10 minutes."

"Thank you." They walked and sat down.

"Katherine,thank you so much for this."

"Ah,it's nothing. I don't want both of my best friends pregnant."

"Kat,don't slap me for this,i'm just wondering. But have you done anything with Taylor?"

"I've done something. Just not that. I'm not ready. I know that i'm like 3 years older than you,but still,i'm ready relationship wise. You and Zac already had this connection. You always had that. He could always read your mind,and you could read his,for as long as i can remember. Me and Tay are just getting used to that."

"I understand Kat. But hey,i wanna know when it happens." Just then the woman waved to them. They walked to the desk and paid for the pills then left.

"Don't let Walker and Diana find those. I mean it,be careful."

"I know. I'll be careful."

The rest of the tour flew by. Within about 2 months the tour was over. It was June,and they were home.

"Mom! Dad!" Rebecca ran to them and gave them both huge hugs.

"Honey! Did you have fun?!"her mother inquired.

"It was a blast!"

"Good. Diana!" Everyone greeted eachother. Rebecca unpacked,and then went downstairs to watch TV with their parents.

"Rebecca,where is the extra money that you had left over?"her mom asked.

"It's the bottom drawer of my dresser."

"Ok." Her mom went upstairs and opened the drawer.

"Shit!"Rebecca thought. She raced up the stairs,but found her mom on her knees crying,holding the package of birth control pills.
