"When do you have to go on tour again?", Laura pressed.
"I don't know. Claudia decided she was going to give us a few weeks off", I commented.
We sat down on a park bench, continued talking. Laura told me her throat was getting dry so she went to get a drink of water. A couple minutes later, I saw Laura walking back. She was only a matter of feet away from me. In the distance I saw Brittany, in hand with a gun.
I could tell by the evilness in her eyes what she intended on doing. I saw her hold it up and aim for Laura. I got up and ran towards Laura dodging the bullet and knocking her to the ground.
"Jesse!", Laura screamed falling to the ground next to him.

*Laura's POV*
"Oh my god!", I screeched waking up. I woke Jesse up by my piercing scream. I was dripping with sweat.
"Laura, what's wrong? Are you alright?", he asked me.
I burst into tears.
"No, no, no, I am not alright", I repeated over and over.
He looked at me asking what happened. I explained him the dream I had in the exact same way I dreamt it. I even told him about the dream I had the night before. He was speechless and didn't know what to say.
"Laura, look at me", he said raising my chin. "I promise you. Nothing is going to happen".
I sighed in relief.
"I hope you're right", I said laying back down.
"Everything is going to be okay. Just try and go back to sleep", he said kissing me on the forehead. I soon drifted off to sleep. I tried going back to sleep, but the images just kept on popping back up. I couldn't help it.
*Saturday Morning*
I woke up around 10 am and I noticed Jesse was gone. I walked upstairs to use the bathroom. Everyone else was gone too. Lea, Timmy, Scot and . After passing the bathroom I saw there was a note on the table. I read it outloud.
Laura,
I went to go somewhere to pick up something. I will be back in an hour or so.
Love ya,
Jess
I walked back down in Jesse's room to take a shower. I got out and heard the phone ring. I still wrapped in only a towel.
"Hello?", I answered.
"You're gonna regret dating Jesse!", I heard a voice hiss and hang up.
I didn't know who it was and was just someone messing around. I ignored the telephone call and proceeded with getting dressed. Some odd 45 minutes later Jesse came back. I heard footsteps up stairs.
"Laura?", I heard a voice call. I recognized it as Jesse's and ran upstairs.
"I missed you", I said.
"Mmm, you smell good", he said grinning.
"It's called a shower, Jess", I teased kissing him on the lips.
"I got something for you", he said running out to his car. He walked back inside with a bouqet of flowers. I sighed.
"Jess, they are beautiful", I gasped. He pulled a box out of his pocket that was neatly wrapped and handed it to me. I opened it and was shocked as I had ever been. "I love it...".
"I am glad", he said smiling in satisfaction.
"But, I can't take it. I know it must have cost you a lot", I replied.
"Laura, I want you to have it. I love you and want you to know that", he insisted. He took it out of the box and put it around my neck. I just touched it in happiness. That moment I knew we would always be together.

Many months passed. Dream Street only did one major tour, but Nikole and I were allowed to go on tour with the guys. The guys and I had been planning for her 18th birthday. A girl's 18th birthday is on of the best things besides a sweet 16, so Greg especially wanted to make it special for her. Little did Nikole know what we had planned. Me and the guys sat in my living room discussing everything.
"Greg, you can sing your song for Nikole @ 10, sound good?", I questioned. He nodded in agreement. Jesse was the only one who he let hear the song. But knowing Greg, I am sure it was good.
"Jesse and I are gonna order the--".
*ding dong*
I got up to answer the door. It was Nikole. I looked back at the guys.
"Come on in Nikole!", I said letting her in.
"What's up guys?", she asked.
"Nothing, we were just planning--", Matt said getting cut off by a hit in his stomach from Chris. Chris smiled nervously at her. She looked at him funny.
"Okaaaay...", she said trailing off. "Anyways, Laura I came over here to tell you about the formal on Friday".
"Formal? Since when did we have one?", I shrieked.
"Well, it sorta was a spontaneous thing. Student government voted on it. And since I'm in Student Government, I figured I'd be the first one to tell you. And I know you and Jesse are probably gonna go, right?", she asked.
"Most likely", I said.
"Alright great. Maybe tomorrow we can go pick out our dresses?", she questioned. I nodded. "Well, I gotta go to cheerleading practice". She walked over to Greg and gave him a kiss and said bye to the others before she exited. Jesse walked up to me.
"Formal huh?", he asked.
"I don't know. Claudia decided she was going to give us a few weeks off", I commented.
