I knew I am to be prepared but heaven help me I did not expect this. I don't even get why I am so embarrassed. I like a guy, so what? It's Bill Kaulitz that's what!
All I keep thinking to myself is that I am an idiot for even realizing it and letting it affect what I do. Boys, don't want 'em but you need 'em; or is it the other way around?
I want to scream trying to figure it out. It's Bill's fault for making me like this. He just had to be so nice and helpful over breakfast, just like he has been since I met him. What's more I felt like I missed him. The only reason I even knew this is because as soon as I met him down in the lobby I could feel like something had been made better. Like a gained a piece of something back that I had been worrying about.
I can't tell the interviewer that it is Bill so how do I go about this?
"Well um," Think Kydania!, " I would rather keep his identity disclosed for privacy reasons but I can tell you about him."
Everyone leans in closer as if I am about to give away the location of buried treasure. It's kind of freaking me out but then again I have never been the one for the slumber party style of sharing.
"Well he's taller than me, which is nice for a change. He knows what he wants and is very confident."
"What does he look like?" The interviewer is desperate to get who 'the guy' is out of me.
"Can't tell you. Besides it's not his looks that make me like him so much and that's all you need to know." Wow am I really being childish about this?
"Okay this question is directed at Megan." The interviewer flips an index card, "How do you handle being away from your younger siblings so much?"
This is a very good question. Anyone who is a fan knows Megan has two siblings under the age of five that she is very much attached to.
"Well I Skype them every evening before they go to bed no matter what I am doing. Call it corny if you will but that's the only way they will go to bed." As Megan says this the rest of us smile lovingly at her. This is a side of Megan very few people get to see.
"How cute! And how old are they?"
Megan smiles, "Milly is in her terrible twos and Marcus is in what we call his ferocious fours."
We all laugh knowing the many stories behind the phrase.
"Why ferocious?"
"To get it I'd have to show you." Megan blushes at the idea of play acting her little brother.
I decide to help knowing it will be fine, " He loves dinosaurs so he often pretends to be one of his favorite dino's and runs around growing 'RAWR' at everyone."
Making the girls and the interviewer laugh I demonstrate by making my arms look short and 'roaring like Marcus would.
"He sounds cute." The interviewer states once we have calmed down.
"You have no idea." We say in unison which sets us all into another fit of laughter.
Someone comes up behind the camera and directs a question at the interviewer. The interviewer holds up her index finger and then directs her attention back to us.
"Last question. What is it like to open for Tokio Hotel?" I've been expecting this.
"Amazing and intimidating," The girls nod in agreement, "The fans really seem to just want to meet and hear Tokio Hotel, which is intimidating, but it is amazing to play for such large groups. Not to mention the boys themselves are amazing to work with."
"Very nice too." Tilly adds.
"Okay I think there is one last thing to do." The interviewer stands and directs us to an area with a very large coach.
On the coach is a very large box containing who knows what.

Games. It has to be. I remember someone saying something about playing games.
"Kydania!" Bill is waving at a very red faced Kyda.
"Ja Billa?"
He smiles at the pronunciation of his name, "Vee are going to play games!"
Seeing Bill so happy and excited I can't help but feel the same.
"If you would all take a seat." A woman in an amazingly cute pair of teal Prada pumps motions for both bands to sit on the coach.
Everyone sits down; girls to one side boys to the other with Tilly and Gustav in the middle.
Suddenly lights start flashing and strange theme music begins to play. The lady with the Prada shoes, whom I decide to call Prada Lady, starts speaking German fast enough that I can't understand anything. I decide to smile and bear with it. I look over to the boys hoping that I might be able to tell what exactly is going on through their faces. Everything seems okay but as we go along with what I assume Prada Lady is saying I notice Tom's face fall with a bit of annoyance. Damn him. Why does he have to have such cute facial expressions?
Kyda squeezes my hand. I look at her from the corner of my eye only to find her smiling, eyes attentively focused on the Prada Lady. She squeezes my hand again. I realize she's squeezing my hand so that I know she has written me a note.
They want us to play a game with the boys! Worse yet the game will be chosen from the box that is filled with slips of paper with the choices of games some fans would like us to play. Possibilities: Charades, the paper kiss (?), or the Pocky game (?). :(
Now I understand why Tom doesn't seem happy. The last two games seem a bit intimate for guys and girls to be playing. I seriously hate it when interviewers and hosts try to make out like there is more than there really is in our lives.
Bill is handed the box and he reaches in trying to keep his smile in place. Underneath it all even Bill doesn't like how this is turning out.
"Charades!" He shouts to everyone in relief.
As the Prada Lady goes over the rules Kyda writes it down in English for us so we don't have to worry about not getting the game and in result losing to Tokio Hotel. Sure they are the main attraction of the tour but that does not mean we have to bow down at their feet and make them look like gods. Even rock stars fail at things.
We are so going to kick their asses!

Turtle…How am I supposed to tell them I'm turtle without talking or making a fool of myself?
"Einer, Zwei, drei…GHET!" oh great now the game is starting.
I start by walking really slow like I'm in the matrix. The girls start shouting words in English; old, matrix, no gravity, slow. I start jumping up and down excitedly and nod as if they are on the right track. The lady in charge of the game shouts our time. I hurry trying to think of something else the girls might get.
The Shell! I turn around and start pointing to my back and then indicate using my hands an oval shape. More random words spout from my band mates; wheel, egg, round. I walk in slow motion again to remind them.
As time is quickly ticking down I start to get desperate and doing really silly almost incomprehensible gestures. Then it magically hits me. I'm going to be a master of disguise the movie! I hunch my head down and start bobbing my head back in forth with a creepy smile. I don't care if I look silly I hate losing.
"Master of Disguise!" Tilly shouts.
"Turtle club!" I nod and roll my hands at Megan as if she is really close.
"Turtle!" I Jump up and down when Lydia finally guesses it.
All the boys are staring at me as if I am an idiot but a very funny one. Bill has his infamous laugh going which gets all of us going. Then the lady in charge of the games tells me to have a seat and that we earned one point. Now it is the guys turn.
