Chapter 26 - Lucky Girl
I woke up Friday morning with one of the most satisfied feelings I had
ever experienced coursing through my veins! Getting up on stage and
performing yesterday left me with a fire burning in my body. That fire
was the power that kept me returning again and again to sing in front of
a crowd.
But if the rush was the fire, interacting with the fans at the CD signing
was the fuel. I had never had an experience like that in my life! Two
hours and forty-five minutes of fan after fan excited for the short
chance to meet me.
And I got to meet them. I'd seen the numbers, I'd heard the news, but I
had never fully understood my popularity until last night. Young and old,
male and female, it didn't matter. There were fans from almost every walk
of life represented by the many people whom I met yesterday. I felt
honored to have that privilege, and I knew that it was something I needed
to cherish.
As I got ready for the day, that feeling continued to stir around inside
me. Eventually, that feeling started to mesh into a tune. Then the tune
started to morph into a song. I was proud of the way that I had overcome
my fears to get up on stage that first time at Johnny's house. I was
proud of my ability to walk out on the stage in Salt Lake City and
perform a concert without any prior experience. But I was also proud of
the way that Paul had taken a step forward and come to the CD signing.
If ever there was a person who was scared to live life, it was Paul. I
didn't know why he was so shy and so timid. I couldn't understand why he
had chosen that moment to take a step outside of his shell. All I knew
was that moment, along with the feeling I had at conquering my own fears,
needed to flow out of my head.
I stepped into Sarah's room and grabbed my guitar case and the notebook I
wrote my songs in. Sitting down on the couch, I did the only thing I
could with those feelings and thoughts. I poured them onto paper. The
song in my head had a really nice, upbeat sound that I couldn't fully
write by myself. But I put down what I could and I knew that the band
would help me put the rest down later.
Mom interrupted me just as I finished the song, and I smiled at her as
she entered.
"How are you doing?" she asked while stepping into the room.
"Great!" I replied while setting my guitar back in its case. "I just
wrote another song! Did you know that Paul came to the CD signing?"
"Paul Johnson?" Mom asked astonished. I nodded and smiled. Paul had been
over to our house many times when we were lab partners, but he hadn't
come by since I became Megan. "Why was he there?"
"I don't know!" I said. "He was the last person I expected to see, and I
nearly frightened him away when I gasped his name."
Mom smiled. She knew just how timid and shy Paul was. She seemed to share
some of my wonder at his unexpected appearance.
"I think I'm going to take him some tickets to the OC Fair," I continued.
"I think he'd like to come, and I'd like to see him there. If he's
sitting with you guys, then he'll be okay too."
Mom nodded. "I think that he'd like that. I always did like him. You
could do worse, you know."
I blushed immediately. Paul was a friend, and I'd never thought of him as
anything else! I didn't know why Mom would jump to that type of
conclusion!
"Mom!" I finally found my voice. "He's just a friend!"
She smiled back at me. Then I realized that she likely had made the
statement to see how I would react. I had proven that I was interested in
boys that first night I had gone out with Josh. We'd discussed that
pretty heavily afterward. She probably wondered if I was finally moving
past the boy whom I had a crush on.
I sighed. I was supposed to go to dinner with Josh tonight, but I knew
that he didn't want to have that type of relationship with Sarah. At the
concert he was really interested in me as Megan, but he hadn't even tried
to contact her during his stay in Los Angeles. Perhaps he no longer had
any feelings for me whatsoever.
That was a depressing thought.
"Megan," Mom said and wrapped me in her arms after seeing my reaction.
"You've never really had a crush on anyone before. Josh is your first.
The first one is always the worst when you finally move on. Josh is a
good kid, but getting involved with him would be...complicated."
"I know, Mom," I said, trying to hold back the tears that had already
begun to spill out. I knew that Josh had probably moved on - I just
hadn't accepted that thought. Having her point it out was not what I
wanted her to do. "Maybe I should just cancel dinner."
"I wouldn't do that, Honey," she said. "I know it will be tough to see
him, but it will teach you how to deal with the situation, and I'm sure
your father will be upset with the ramifications it might have on your
career."
Her words made sense, but they didn't make me feel any better. I knew
that I had to go to dinner to help support the idea that we would be
working together. We had already agreed to sing duet at one of his
concerts, and Dad had already been talking about having him show up at
one of mine. Shunning Josh for the way he was making me feel could
seriously diminish our ability to work together. I smiled wanly at her
and nodded.
"Come have a light snack," Mom said to me. "It's already two and I don't
think you even ate breakfast." My stomach growled to prove her point.
"Besides, your dad has something he wants to tell you. He's been excited
all morning, but he didn't want to interrupt the song."
That got my attention, and my tears started to dry up. I nodded again and
reached down to close the guitar case before I stood up and followed Mom
out to the kitchen.
Dad was sitting at the kitchen table eating a sandwich when we arrived,
and I noticed that there were two more plates waiting for us. I sat down
next to them and took a bite of my sandwich.
"Hi, Princess," Dad said to me with an excited smile on his face. "Did
you finish the song?"
I finished chewing before I responded. "As much as I can alone. I want to
get together with the band and finish it so we can use it on the tour."
Dad nodded. "We'll need to come up with some other songs too if we want
to fill the show's timeframe. We might have to do some covers, but that
isn't necessarily a bad thing."
"Okay," I replied and took another bite.
"Your album was quite a hit yesterday," he said next. From the excitement
on his face I knew that this was what he had been waiting to tell me.
"Megan, you sold 428,000 albums yesterday! That's phenomenal for a first
album!"
I stopped chewing. 428,000 copies? That was a staggering number! I hadn't
had any real idea how many would sell, but that number was way higher
than I thought it would be!
I just stared at Dad before I responded. "Are you serious?" I asked after
forcing myself to swallow.
"Yes," he replied. That same smile I had seen when I sat down was still
plastered on his face. "I told you that you had potential! This just
proves it. I'm so proud of you!"
I didn't know what to say! I was completely in shock, and I couldn't
think of anything else to do except continue to eat. 428,000!
By the time I was done eating, Mom and Dad had showered me with
compliments and encouragements. I was still in a daze as I returned to
Sarah's room and spent the afternoon going over the songs that Josh and I
would be practicing later in the evening.
I still hadn't fully recovered from that news when I stepped back out of
Sarah's room after putting on a nice, but not too formal, dress for
dinner.
Since I was dressed and ready, I was surprised to find my parents in the
front room watching TV together. Neither of them was dressed or ready for
dinner.
"Aren't you guys getting ready?" I asked with concern. I didn't want to
be late. Despite what I had talked to Mom about earlier, I hoped that I
still had a chance with Josh, in one identity or the other.
Mom turned around and smiled slightly at me. That smile told me
everything, and my shoulders slumped at the knowledge that I would be
braving my feelings for Josh alone this evening. My parents weren't
coming.
"Why not?" I asked before she replied. Josh had invited both me and my
family! They had every right to be there!
"Honey, Josh invited your family. We aren't Sarah's family." Her response
made my stomach fall. I knew there was a separation between my parents
and Sarah. That was for my own protection. If they were linked to Sarah
as her parents, then it was only a simple task for someone to realize
that Sarah and Megan were the same person.
I glared at her, and without another word to them I walked out to my car
and started driving toward Josh's house.
This day had started out with one of the most wonderful feelings in the
world. Now I had sunk into the pit of despair. I never thought that I
would feel betrayed and deserted by my own parents!
---
"How can I help you?" came the refined voice from the callbox at the gate
entering into Josh's relatives' house. When he said they lived in Beverly
Hills, I expected a mansion, but I still wasn't prepared for what I
found.
"Sarah Carerra," I replied. "I'm here for dinner."
"You are expected," the voice returned. This statement sounded nasally.
The gate started to open and I rolled up my window before driving
forward.
"You are expected," I mocked sarcastically while driving up the short
lane to the roundabout in front of the home. I was beginning to think
this was a bad idea again. I hadn't wanted to attend a formal dinner, but
if Josh's aunt and uncle employed a butler, they probably had a whole
staff on hand to make this a high society dinner.
The house itself was something I had only ever seen in movies before. I
knew that my family lived in a nice house that would get us a pretty
penny if we ever sold it, but this place put to shame the home I'd known
my entire life. I was really intimidated as I stepped out of my car and
approached the front door. I really wished I had Mom and Dad, or even
Emily or Ethan with me to help keep me from turning and running away.
The door opened before I reached it, and Josh was standing there with a
smile on his face that melted the idea to run straight out of my mind. If
he was here, I would be okay. He was dressed much the same way I was:
nice, but not formal. He had on a pair of slacks and a button up shirt,
though the lack of a tie told me that I didn't have to worry about
fitting into high society this evening.
"Hi, Sarah," he said with that voice that started to make my legs all
wobbly again. How was I supposed to get over him when he had that kind of
an effect on me?
"Hi, Josh," I replied. It sounded slightly too love-struck to my ears,
though. Thankfully, he didn't seem to catch the tone in my voice. But the
person standing next to him did. I watched her lips tighten at the
knowledge that I still had feelings for her brother, even if he wasn't
returning them. "Hi, Amanda," I said to her. Amanda Holliday and I had
gotten to know each other pretty well on the flight to Salt Lake City for
the concert, and I was happy to see her again.
"Hi, Sarah!" she replied excitedly and stepped forward to give me a hug.
That was unexpected, but it turned out not to be awkward at all. When she
let go, I saw that Josh's lips had tightened much like hers had. I had
the sudden impression that he was jealous of his sister. Well, it was his
own fault that he wasn't getting his own hug!
"Where's your family?" Josh asked me next.
"They couldn't make it," I replied. It was my turn to tighten my lips as
I thought of how I had felt abandoned by my parents. I knew that it was
for my own good, but that didn't stop me from wishing that they were
here.
Josh frowned, but stepped back to let me inside. "Come on inside. Dinner
is almost ready, and we have a lot to do tonight if we are going to be
ready for tomorrow."
I nodded and stepped into the house after him. The inside of the house
was just as immaculate as the outside, and I felt out of place
immediately. The opulence that was displayed was off-putting, and I
wondered how long I would have to endure it to get out of here.
Just inside the door were two other people waiting for us. I first turned
my attention to Josh's mom, Annie. She gave me a welcoming hug. I had
also gotten to know her fairly well during the concert, and it was nice
to have a few friendly faces here.
The second person was a boy. He looked to be about Amanda's age, and I
guessed he must be their cousin. He had that same look on his face that
most of the teenage boys had when they met me.
"Sarah, this is Steven," Josh said when it was apparent that Steven
wasn't going to talk for himself. "He's my cousin. Believe it or not, he
is an only child."
An only child...in this huge house? Talk about overkill. I could see
wanting to have a nice place, but this mansion must have had like 80
rooms. Too much for a family of three, if you asked me.
He smiled at me. "You are expected," he deadpanned in the same tone as
the butler had on the voice box outside. I started laughing out loud when
I realized that it was the same voice.
"Okay, you got me," I said when I finally was able to talk again. I was
still chuckling, and I noticed that the slightly scared expression he'd
had at meeting me was now gone. He had broken the ice. "It's nice to meet
you, Steven."
"The pleasure is mine," he replied. He looked innocent enough when he
said it, but it was dripping with the feelings I knew he was having about
me. I wasn't too keen on continuing that type of discussion.
We were then led into the dining room where I met Josh's aunt and uncle.
Uncle Ned and Aunt Karen weren't much for words, and they almost seemed
somewhat put out that I was in their home. We sat down quickly and dinner
was served. It seemed they felt that the sooner they were finished and
didn't have to interact with me, the better.
Dinner was nice. The food was excellent, but the companionship was only
so so. Josh and his family, and even Steven, were very kind, but
discussion was stifled primarily by Steven's parents. I was not sure why
they agreed to let me visit if this was how they felt. I sincerely hoped
for Steven's sake that they weren't like this all of the time.
After dinner was over, the two of them quickly retired to a different
part of the house, and the rest of us found ourselves in a study that had
a pretty nice sound system.
"This is where I work on my music when I'm in town," Josh told me while I
sat down on a plush couch. "I thought it would be a good place to
practice the songs for tomorrow."
I looked around. Sarah's room had become the place where I most often
worked on my own songs. It was very feminine and soothing to me. This
place was the opposite. It wasn't blatantly masculine. But it was
definitely a room that would be better suited for a guy than a girl.
Overall, it was a nice, cozy place to work on music. He could have done a
lot worse.
"It's nice," I replied, garnering a smile from him. Josh walked over to
the music system and pressed a button. 'Lucky' started playing
immediately, and without any preamble Josh started singing the first
verse. I smiled, and when it came my turn, I joined him.
My feelings were conflicted as I sang the song with him for the first
time. It was a love song, and as I watched his eyes as we sang, I clearly
saw that he was attracted to me. If he had those types of feelings for
me, why didn't he act on them? He knew that I was interested. All he had
to do was to return them.
The second song was better. It was a light-hearted comedy piece that was
easier for us to set aside our emotions. We had a lot of fun with it.
The third song, however, was the worst of all. It was a slow, meaningful
song. I had to struggle to hold in tears while I sang it with Josh,
because I learned the truth while watching his eyes while we sang it. He
had feelings for me, but he didn't love me. I could see that clearly now.
I doubted that he even loved Megan. What he was returning to me wasn't
the same thing that I had been feeling for him. I had hoped that there
was still a chance for us to be together, but it was painfully evident to
me now that it wasn't going to be in my immediate future.
As we continued to sing and practice throughout the night, Josh knew what
I had learned. His concern for me grew as we continued to practice.
Fortunately, his family eventually left us alone, and by the time we were
finished, I felt exhausted and emotionally spent.
"Sarah," Josh said as I collapsed back down onto the couch. "I'm sorry."
I looked up at him, and as much as it hurt, I smiled. Josh was a good
guy. Someday he would make some girl very lucky. But that day wasn't
today, and when it happened, I was unlikely to be the girl. It hurt, but
there was also relief in my smile. I was happy for him. I knew that we
would continue to be friends, and perhaps there would be a chance for
more in the future, but I finally was okay with what was happening now.
"It's okay, Josh," I told him. "You don't need to apologize. This isn't
your fault."
"Sarah," he said. I knew he didn't agree with my words, but I held up my
hand to let him know that he didn't need to say anything more. "Look," he
said instead. "You are amazing. I envy the guy who gets to be with you.
But that can't be me. Not right now."
"I know," I told him. "But I hope we can still be friends. Is that okay?"
"Of course," he said while finally returning my smile.
This had been one roller coaster of an emotional day. From the wonderful
feeling I'd had this morning to the sadness I had felt at leaving my
parents at home. But now, it had turned into a good day again. I hadn't
lost Josh. I had gained another good friend. Perhaps someday that would
mean more, but if it didn't, I was glad for what I had.
I was a lucky girl.
