Viva Las Vegas

Haley was sitting in her and Nathan's bed listening to the radio. She was home alone while Nathan was out doing…something. She wasn't sure what.

"You are listening to The Voice, DJ Sammy here," Haley heard from the radio. "Tonight we have a special Bon Jovi marathon just for you but for the moment we are going to take a break from him and I'm going to tell you more about the competition I talked about earlier. Does that sound good? Okay! Well, all you have to do is pick up the phone, dial 555-2001 and if you're very, very lucky and get through to me here at the station, all you have to do is answer a couple of simple questions I ask you about Mr. Bon Jovi himself and if you get them right then you win five tickets to see Jon Bon Jovi live in Las Vegas! You heard right! Five tickets. Las Vegas. Bon Jovi. Live. So pick up the phone now! The number is 555-2001. 555-2001!" he repeated.

'That's sounds like fun,' Haley thought. 'But I probably wouldn't get through anyway. In other words, I would just waste my time and my money.' She heard the DJ play "Bed of roses" with Bon Jovi and she remembered how much she loved that song. She would really like to go and see him live and she had always wanted to go to Vegas plus, she could really use a vacation. 'What the heck…' She thought and picked up the phone.

"555-2001," Haley said out loud even though she was alone. She heard a signal but no one picked up for quite a while so just when she was about to hang up, she heard a voice at the other end.

"DJ Sammy here, who am I speaking to?"

Haley couldn't believe that she had actually gotten through and that she was on air with many other people listening to her. She was growing more and more anxious by the second. She had always wanted people hearing her on the radio but this wasn't exactly what she had in mind. And the stupidest thing was that she had been on the radio before. She hadn't talked but still…

"Hallo?" DJ Sammy tried again.

"Oh, sorry. I'm Haley."

"Haley, okay. I'm guessing it's your first time on the radio?"

"That depends on how you see it I guess."

"Okay…? Well I know that you are calling about the competition so why don't we start?"

"Sure," she said uncertainly.

"Okay. Question number one: When did the band first start playing together?"

"1983," she answered without any hesitation.

"That is correct. Question number two: What year did Bon Jovi get their breakthrough and with which song?"

"I think it was 1984 with the song runaway."

"Right again. Question number three and also the last question: Sing a verse from the song Bed of roses that we just played."

"That isn't a question."

"I know but you have to do it if you want to win the tickets."

Since she didn't have a choice on the matter if she wanted to win the tickets, she sang a verse from the song. It was really easy too since she practically knew all the words at heart. When she was done the DJ spoke again.

"That was great! You've got a nice set of pipes there."

"Thanks…I think."

"Well now there's only one more thing left to say. Congratulations! You have won the tickets to Vegas and see Bon Jovi live with your friends!"

Oh. My. God.

So that might have been a little lame and short and I apologize for that. It will get better in future chapters, this was only the prolouge. I really want to know if you think I should go on so please review and let me know!
