Chapter 1 ~ Getting Settled

Three days after the top ten teams were chosen, they made their way to the other side of the USA…Los Angeles, CA! The teams all arrived at different times on the same day and were driven to the Renaissance Hollywood Hotel & Spa. The American team stepped out of their taxi.

"We made it, guys!" a boy with very dark, brown hair and greenish grey eyes whose name is Zack Williams.

"Zack! Will you please slow down?!" a boy with dark colored skin, black afro hair and brown eyes. His name is Chase Halls.

"We want to make a good impression, so let's try being cool about this, k?" a boy with hazel eyes, dark brown hair and his name is Tim Oman.

The three boys walked towards the hotel. A girl, named Elizabeth Akins, with dark brown hair and eyes heaved a sigh and yelled, "Yeah! Sure go ahead! We got our bags!"

"It's ok, Elizabeth," a girl with short dirty blonde hair (is about 3 inches above her shoulders) and emerald green eyes said with a laugh, "The boys are just excited to be here."

Elizabeth turned to face the girl with the short hair and said, "Katy Williams…you need to stop being to kind to them. They are gentlemen and two of them happen to be our boyfriends."

Katy Williams is the name of the short haired girl. She knew that Elizabeth was right. Katy was dating Tim. Tim had asked her to be his girlfriend after the announcement that they made it the top ten. Elizabeth was dating Katy's brother Zack Williams. Elizabeth and Zack had been dating for two years. Katy was about to say something, then Tim kissed his girlfriend on the cheek, "Sorry, baby, but we just could not wait to get inside."

Tim picked up one of the Katy's bags and Zack appeared too picking up one of Elizabeth's bags. The four met Chase at the front door. They entered the hotel and the lobby was so beautiful. There were wooden columns, art of all sorts and it was breathtaking. The team of America walked up the front desk and checked in. The girls and the boys received two different rooms. The boys were a floor above the girls. The girls got off the elevator and said good-bye to the boys with hugs and a kiss between Elizabeth and Zack. The girls got to their room. All the teams received a Hollywoodland suite. This spectacular, two-bedroom rooftop suite boasts a stylish décor and opulent amenities, including a large entertainment area, an oversized tub, a grand piano, and a walk-in shower. The magnificent terrace provides sweeping views of the Hollywood Sign and downtown LA's sparkling skyline.

"Oh wow!" Elizabeth said looking out the window.

"You must our roommates," a female voice said in the doorway.

The girl was short and young. She had long wavy, dark, brown hair and blueish, gray eyes. She had a stick figured. She was straight with no hour-glass. She walked up to Elizabeth and Katy, "I'm Riley Anderson from the Canadian team. It's nice to meet you."

"I'm Katy Williams and this is Elizabeth Akins. We are from the American team."

She looked up and down Katy and said, "I'm quite jealous of your hour-glass figure, Katy. You are so skinny and yet you seem so fit."

Katy giggled, "Thanks…I guess."

"Katy Williams? Skinny? Please. She needs to lose weight. She is such a fatty."

Everyone turned towards the door and there stood a blonde hair, greenish, gray eyes girl. She too had an hour-glass figure. Katy smiled at her, "NORA!"

Katy and Nora Ricci, from the Italian team, embraced in a hug. Riley looked over at Elizabeth, "Nora just made fun of Katy and they are hugging?"

Elizabeth nodded with a laugh, "This is not the first year we tried out for this competition and a when we first joined, Katy and Nora hated each other. Then, at some point, they found they had more in common than they thought…so they made up and became friends. At first, she did not think we did not belong in this competition."

"And when I'm wrong, then I say I'm wrong and I was very wrong about this team," Nora said walking up to Riley and Elizabeth, "The reason I was so bitchy to them was because I felt threatened and I thought they would beat my team. They kept coming back, they were trying to prove something and I respected that. We are now best friends."

Riley nodded, "That's so cool."

Katy nodded, "Fate is a funny thing."

"Hey! Riley!" a male voice said in the doorway, "Come on! We gotta talk!"

Riley ran out of the room saying good-bye. Elizabeth waved, "Cute kid…we gotta watch out for her."

All three girls laughed. Nora offered to help them unpack because she was already unpacked and ready to go. The girls unpacked, caught up, and shared stories. However, fifteen minutes later, Elizabeth got a text from Chase asking if she could come up to the room because it was kind of tense.

Chase, Tim, and Zack got to their room. They also admired the beauty of the Hollywoodland Suite. Chase nodded, "Wow…"

"Hells ya, boys," Tim said walking in further, "We hit the jackpot!"

Tim and Chase screamed in excitement. Zack yelled, "Hey! Listen up! WE aren't here to have fun, got it? We are here to win."

"Zack, relax, man. We are just appreciating this. I mean we don't even have to pay for it." Chase said kind of surprised.

Zack was usually a laid back kind of guy, who took dancing seriously, but he never took TOO seriously. Zack got in Chase's face, "Do you want to win this?"

Chase backed up a little, "Well, yeah, bu—"

"Then, don't let the setting stray you from your goal," Zack said somewhat threateningly.

Zack walked to one of the beds and began unpacking. Chase and Tim soon followed suit. After about fifteen minutes, the three American boys heard someone enter their room. He entered the bedroom. He was from the South Korean team, DBSK.

"Hi guys, I'm Xiah Junsu. You can just call me Junsu." He said with a smile.

Chase walked up and shook his hand, "I'm Chase Halls. That's Tim Oman and that is Zack Williams."

Just then Elizabeth entered the room, "Hey, boys. Thought I would come up and see if you needed help. Oh…Is this your roommate?"

"Hello. I'm Xiah Junsu. But you can just call me Junsu."

"I'm Elizabeth Akins," she said shaking his hand.

Then, Zack broke their hands apart saying, "And she's my girlfriend."

"Then, you are a very lucky guy to have such a pretty girl as your girlfriend," Junsu said with a sweet smile, "Well, I'll go unpack now."

For the next hour or so, all the boys had unpacked and Zack wanted to go find Katy.

After an hour of unpacking, Elizabeth left the room to go meet Zack somewhere. Katy laid on her tempurpedic mattress and Nora sat next to her. Nora looked at her best friend, "So how are you and Tim?"

"We've only been dating for four days, Nora," she said kind of taken aback by her question.

"You know I'm an observer," Nora said, "and I have noticed that even though he asked you to be his girlfriend, he seems uncomfortable to be around you."

"We are at the stage of a new couple," Katy said in a stating the obvious tone.

Nora looked at her friend, "Did you say yes, because you want to?"

Katy was silent for a minute and finally said, "Yeah…why are so interested?"

Nora shrugged, "As long as it's what you want to do, I won't do anything."

"Hey there."

Nora and Katy looked up and there stood Elizabeth, Zack, Chase, and Tim. Nora stood up, "So, it's been like three days, guys! How was the flight?"

"Nora, I need to have a talk with my sister," Zack said strictly.

Nora's eyes widen in surprise because of the harshness in his tone, "Sure…I'll talk to you later."

Nora left and Zack's eyes did not leave his sisters. Katy shrugged in confusion, "What?"

"Let me make one thing clear," Zack said sternly, ""We are not here to have fun, to make friends, to socialize…because we are here to win. This is the first time in ten years that an American team has made it through to the top ten. You are my sister and I know how you love to be friendly with everyone…but not now. You need to grow up an—"

"Where the hell is all this coming from?" Katy said standing up feeling a little offended, "Nora is not only my friend, but yours too."

"During this competition, she is your enemy and your only goal is to be better than her. Got it?" Zack said firmly, "If you want to do something, than you come and ask me first."

Katy stood up from her bed and walked towards the door. Zack caught her by the arm, "Where are you going?"

"To get a snack from the lobby vending machine," she said pulling her arm away forcefully.

She walked out and Zack turned to his other teammates. They were all staring at him with looks of shock, disappointment, and disapproval. He shrugged, "What?"

"That was really harsh, man," Chase said shaking his head, "I mean she's your little sister."

"Yeah, and my girlfriend," Tim replied.

"Zack, you should apologize," Elizabeth suggested, "We don't want to start having family issues again."

"She needs to get her priorities straight and I'm going to make sure she stays on track," Zack answered.

"You will….or your parents?" Elizabeth asked seriously.

Zack swallowed and shook his head, "I will."

Katy exited the elevator and walked into the colorful lobby. As she wandered through the library, she saw a couple sitting on one of the couches kissing and smiling happily at each other.

Flashback

The kiss was sweet, yet passionate. His arms held her close to his body and he breathed in her ear, which sent shivers down her body, "Katy…"

Flashback End

She blinked her eyes a few times and shook her head, "I need a Milky Way…"

She asked one of the bell ringers where the vending marine was and he sent to where the bar was. She arrived and bought herself a Milky Way and she knew should have to go to the gym to work it off later…but she needed it after what her brother said to her. She turned to corner to exit the room and…BANG! She bumped into someone and before she fell, the person caught her in their arms.

"I so sorr—" Katy said stopping mid sentence when she saw who she bumped into, "…Hero…"

Hero Jaejoong looked at Katy and smiled, "Katy…"

Hero Jaejoong is the main vocalist of the South Korean team DBSK. He was still holding her and Katy realized this, so she backed up a little. She smiled a little and looked down to the ground. He smiled at her, "How was your flight?"

"It was ok…" she said with shrug not looking into his eyes, "How…um…how about you?"

"It was a lot better than the one from Korea to America," he said with a chuckle, "That was hard because we cross the International Date Line."

Katy laughed very quietly, "Yeah…Uh…I bet…"

They were silent and she could feel him watching her. He put his hand on her cheek and pulled up her face to look at him, "Katy…I—"

"Jaejoong!" A male voice yelled.

Hero and Katy both looked behind Hero and Jung Yunho was running up to them, "I was wondering where you—oh…hi, Katy." He said with a smile.

Katy nodded, "Hi, Yunho."

Jung Yunho (U-Know) is the leader of the DBSK group and he is their best dancer. Yunho looked at his teammate, "Am I interrupting something?"

Hero was about to speak, but Katy beat him to it, "I was just about to leave…I have to finish packing and then I was going to take nap…"

"Oh…ok. Well, I guess we'll see you later," Yunho said with a smile.

Katy smiled at Yunho and looked at Hero was grinning sweetly at her. Katy could feel herself blush and she walked away as fast as possible. Yunho watched her walk away and then he turned to see Hero looking upset, "I did interrupt something, didn't I?"

"You think?" Hero answered.

"I'm sorry," Yunho said looking apologetic, "but you do know she is dating Tim on her team, right?"

"She's only doing that because that is what her parents want her to do," Hero said.

"The boys want to go out and explore a little," Yunho said trying to calm down his teammate, "You want to come?"

Hero nodded with a deep sigh. The two boys went to meet the rest of their team.

Flashback

He wrapped his hands around the back of her neck and kissed her softly and yet it still made her weak at the knees. He looked right into her eyes and he could see a little bit of a fear and embarrassment.

"I won't hurt you, Katy," he whispered kissing her nose.

Flashback End

Katy awoke suddenly and looked at her clock. It was three forty seven in the morning. She rubbed her eyes and sat up. She swallowed hard, 'I can't be distracted…I have to focus…I can't mess this up…we worked so hard to get here…'

She got out of bed and walked onto the balcony of their suite. The cool air mixed with the warm temperature felt good on her skin. What she did not know was the Nora was watching her outside…
