Stephanie's POV:
Ever since the movie premiere, David and I hung out constantly. Shane had left New York after the premiere.
We stayed at the hotel for three more days before we left. Crystal Clear and the Jonas Brothers had flown over to L.A. We had to go to the MTV Teen Choice awards tonight. I was so excited!
David and I were in my hotel room, in L.A., watching T.V. with Joe. Joe kept flipping the channel every two seconds. It got really annoying. "Joe! Pick a channel! At this point, I don't care what we watch!" I roared. Joe looked at me with a frightened look on his face. "Geez, okay!" he yelled and flipped the channel to Hannah Montana on Disney Channel. "AHH! CHANGE IT, CHANGE IT!" I screamed, covering my eyes with my hands. As much as I loved Miley, I hated her show. "Hey! You said you didn't care what we watched!" Joe said. "Yes, I did but, anything but this, PLEASE!" I begged. David seemed amused by the way Joe and I were acting. "Fine," Joe pouted. He changed the channel to VH1 where they were playing the Top Twenty Countdown. They were finishing up Touch My Body by Mariah Carey at number six. "Thank you," I smiled. David and I were lying on our stomachs on my hotel bed while Joe was sitting on the floor between us.
We watched the rest of the countdown, Bleeding Love by Leona Lewis in number one.
Thirty minutes later-12:30
Joe walked back into the hotel room from my bathroom. "Hey guys, you want to go swimming? Kevin called and said that he, Nick, Jennifer, Cameron, Michelle, Phoebe, and Kimberley are going," Joe asked. "Sure," I smiled and David just nodded.
David walked to his room to go change. Yes, he was staying at the same hotel. Everyone from American Idol was staying there.
Joe told me he'd wait in the lobby for me and walked out my door. After he left, I walked over to my dresser and put on my bathing suit. I kept my hair down, grabbed a towel, sunscreen, and put my sunglasses on my head. I went over to my door and put on some Billa Bong flip-flops.
David was already waiting for me outside my door. "Hey, you ready?" he asked. I nodded. "Yep, Joe said he'll meet us in the lobby." We walked over to the elevator and waited until it stopped at the lobby.
We were in this discussion on whether Simon Cowell chose to wear those muscle shirts or if his stylist made him. "I'm telling you, he wears them for the ladies!" David argued. "What ladies? I doubt it!" I rolled my eyes, "I mean, who wears tight, muscle shirts for himself? I say he's forced to wear them!" We slowly walked out of the elevator, still arguing, and oblivious to everyone in the lobby looking amused.
"For the last time, he wears them because he wants to!" I shook my head. "No he doesn't!" "Steph, I know him! I think I would know why he wears them!" I scrunched up my nose and stuck out my tongue. "Ugh! Why is this so hard for you to understand, David? NO ONE wears those for fun!"
Phoebe's POV-
Joe called us and told us to meet him, Steph, and David in the lobby. I walked into the hotel first, the others following me. Joe was leaning against the wall, tapping his foot impatiently. God, he was so cute! His dark brown hair was covering his right eye and he flipped it back to place. Oh my god, he was so hot. He saw me and came over. "Hey Phoebe," he flashed one of his 'Joe smiles'. Oh, does that smile give me butterflies. "Hey," I giggled silently to myself.
Just then, the elevator opened, revealing David and Stephanie arguing about who knows what. All I heard was "What ladies? I doubt it!" coming from Stephanie. I then looked at Joe who was listening closely to what the two were arguing about. I completely ignored them and kept gazing at Joe. Hee, hee, he's so cute.
I turned my attention back to Steph and David who were still going at the argument. Geez, how long can this take. "Someone settle this!" I hissed to everyone else. "NO ONE wears them for fun!" I heard Steph yell. "Ac-hem," Michelle fake coughed, trying to get the two to stop arguing. Yeah, didn't work. I groaned. I started to fake cough too, dramatically. I started to 'cough' so hard that I fell on the ground and actually started choking. Joe bent down to help me. As soon as I stopped, I sat back up as if nothing happened. Stephanie and David looked at me with one eyebrow up, as if I was crazy. Everyone else was just cracking up.
