Conversations and a new manager

“Hello Kevin Richardson speaking” He said. That is one way to answer a phone but why so cheery?

“Hey Kevin its Kait…I got the message last night” I told him as I got up from my seat at the counter and went over to the refrigerator and grabbed the carton of Orange Juice. I closed the door and went over to the cabinet with the glasses and opened it to get a glass. I grabbed my glass and then pour myself a glass of juice… need more Vitamin C since I don’t get a lot of sleep anymore.

“Hey Kaitie…so how are you this morning…let me guess you’re extremely tired and are rethinking your career choice.” He said with a little chuckle

“To a ‘T’ you really have been there” I said god I am fallen for him and it has only been 2 days that we known each other.

“ I was about 5 years older than you when I joined Backstreet…I kinda know what its like…So did you talk to your mother about the switch of managers?” He asked me unfortunately I haven’t yet

“No but I already know she is gonna say no but I don’t care about that…so Jane will not take over If my mom is not down for it?” I asked him

“No she will not … she doesn’t like doing things that undermine parents.” He told me…damn…I wish I could trade managers.

“But Denise is also a good manager if you want we could go and see her instead of Jane. Today” He told me and I got a little bit more excited when there was still a chance of me changing from my mother to another manager

“Yeah…could we go and see her?” I asked him hoping he would say yes…I mean I know he said yes already but I know people who say something and mean another.

“Yeah sure…same time as before?” he asked me
“Yeah if you don’t mind” I said
“Sure I’ll pick you up at 1:30 and take you to AJ’s House…she is there today” Kevin said
“Great…do you know where I live?” I asked him

“Yeah you live with Justin on Knighting Gale Right?” He asked
“yeppers.” I said

we said goodbyes and hung up from there I went up stairs to my room with my water bottle and just laid in bed…

Soon I was asleep again…

“Hello…Kaitie…anyone home...Kaitie…hello…I am coming upstairs … Kaitie … hello…” I heard

The next thing I know I feel my bed move a little bit and someone move the hair out of my face.

“Hey Kaitie…wake up…Kate” He said I stirred a little bit. The next thing he did was kissed my cheek…OMG HE KISSED MY CHEEK!! **I should get up and do a dance**

I immediately woke up with a smile on my face…

“Hey Kaitie…took you little while to get up” He said with a smile

“Well what can I say I love being alone all day…I get as much sleep as I can” I told him and sat up.

“I love sleep…I am a sleep-a-holic” he said to me

“Likewise” I said throwing the covers off of me and got out of bed…I’m still in my silk pajama pants and my white wife beater.

“You look the part of a sleepaholic” he said getting up to let me out of the bed

“Is it really1:30?” I asked him as I yawned

“Yeah…how long did you sleep after we talked this morning?” He asked me as I went over to my closet and pulled down a white halter top and a pair of blue stretch jeans and walked into the bathroom. I threw on the outfit and walked back into my room. When I got back into my room I picked a pair of sneakers, and some socks.

“I have been asleep since about 7… I tend to sleep a lot.” I said while I did every thing
I also ran a brush through my hair and put it up…I ran back to the bathroom and brushed my teeth, and splashed some cold water onto my face and got the sleepies out of my eyes. When I was done I went back to my room and grabbed my jacket.

“You ready?” He asked as I put on my jacket.

We left my room and went downstairs and out to his car. We drove all the way to AJ’s house talking about our musical influences…I told him I like Phil Collins and he said that he likes R. Kelly

“SO how come you didn’t use any samples of Phil Collins on your record” He asked

“Because My brother pissed off Phil’s agent and they said that if I want a Phil song on my album that my brother better not be a producer. I swear to the higher power that I will kill my brother one of these days” I told him.

“SO why don’t you just ask for a new producer?” he asked me

“Because that would have to go through my mother and my brother…that doesn’t look good” I said

“I see the need for a new manager…well your in luck Denise is totally cool” He said as he pulled up in front of AJ’s house. When we parked he got out and ran around to my door before I had my seatbelt off he had the door open.

“Thank you Kevin” I said as I got out of the Car. He closed the door and we walked up to the house and he just opened the door, and we just walked in

“Yo0o Alex are you home? Denise…ah there you are…” He said as this cute little red head woman came into the room from what I would expect to be a balcony

“Ah Kevin how are you honey…and this little cutie here must be Kaitie…Hi I am Denise…most of the Guys just call me mom though…so you are having problems with your mother being your manager well come with me to my “Office” as we call it and we will talk about what you want to do” she said pulling me from Kevin. We went into the Kitchen and sat down at the counter

“SO let me guess…she is not a mother anymore she is all business all the time and you want your mother back…am I right?” She asked me

“Yep…between my mother and my brother I don’t know who to kill…him or her” I said

“haha…well Kaitie I am not your mother so you can feel free to have fun and not expect our “family matters” get in the way” She said …I already like her.

“Well … cool … I just wish I knew how to tell my mother that she is fired” I said

“Well I can help you there honey…well we can meet at Jive’s meeting office at Sound Effects studio…do you know that one sweet heart?” she asked me

“Yeah I recorded my album there…there is just one thing…would you be able to help me get Phil Collins to consider letting me use his material?” I asked her.

“Of course honey…Phil and I are very close…I am sure I could ask him to let you use his material…He would probably even produce some of the material” She said and I jumped up and down…this is like a dream come true for me.
