"Best in me"

Prologue
Sydney, the Sheraton hotel...

"Nicole, hurry up! Otherwise we're leaving without you," yelled Tony standing next to the waiting car.
"Ok! Geeze stop being so impatient! I'm coming now!" she yelled back fuming angrily. Half the time they're running from place to place with absolutely no time to themselves. Vickie, one of Nic's closets friends since they were young; jumped out of the car and approached her to help with the bags.
"Don't worry about Tony. He's being a donkey's ass like usual. I think he's also looking forward to a nice break. He's going to the States so Angela will join us in NZ in one weeks' time," Vickie replied.
"Thank goodness. He's driving all of us crazy," Nicole answered and the two girls laughed, and stored the bags away and got into the car joining the remaining three girls and their tour manager.
"Queenstown, New Zealand here we come!" shouted Natalie excitedly and they cracked up laughing.

London's Heathrow Airport...


"Finally, a holiday!" Kian exclaimed.
"And for two glorious months. You know, we should do something apart from the usual while in New Zealand," said Shane.
"What, apart from sleeping?" Mark chipped in playfully.
"Shut up Mark," Kian & Shane replied in unison.
"Kerry and I are going off to the Bahamas," Bryan said grinning.
"Oh, you lucky bastard. Nix, how about you? Anything special planned with Georgina?" Shane questioned.
"I think we're going to her parents place over the weekend but..."
"Yes?" Mark asked becoming interested as did the rest of the group.
"Don't get me wrong. They are nice people and everything. But there comes a time when a couple needs time alone, know what I mean?" Nicky asked.
"Ooh! I think some one wants to have some action with his lady!" cooed Bryan smiling.
"Shut up McFadden," Nix snapped and they laughed.
