Channing Stuart, Imraan Paruk, and Nathan Niles Mrs. Gardner's class Period 1 October 24, 2008 A Not So Sweet 16

It was Tiffany’s birthday, and the Jones Brothers would be there in five minutes. The three sisters were so excited about the Jones Brothers coming. They were having so much fun, but it would be so much better once the Jones brothers got there. The whole party was going great. All of Tiffany’s friends were having so much fun they were eating, dancing, and talking. The music was starting to hurt Tiffany’s ear, but it she was having too much fun to notice. She was shaking because she was so anxious. “Ok,” Tiffany said, “They should be here any day now. I can’t wait to see them perform.” Tiffany was getting a little worried because the Jones Brothers were still not there and it had been thirty minutes after they should have been there. Then Tiffany’s dad came in and told the girls, “You guys should have cake first because I am sure that the Jones Brothers will be here after you eat.

Soon Tiffany's friends started to sing and Tiffany remembered what she was going to wish for. Then she made her wish. Her wish was to meet the Jones Brothers and hope they would be unharmed. ”Ok thanks dad,” said Tiffany. “They better be here.” The girls ate their cake in silence. Gina looked really worried, “Tiff, I don’t think they’re coming.” Tiffany looked like she was going to cry, “What do you mean they aren’t coming? Dad just came in and said that they were coming after we ate cake.”

Natasha was trying to convince Tiffany that they weren’t coming. “Tiff, you have to believe us even though you think they’re coming we all know that they aren’t. We are just as upset about this as you are.” “Ok, then let’s go find them since we know where they are staying, “Tiffany said. They all got into Tiffany’s new car and they went to the Hilton on Sunset Blvd. Tiffany was in such a rush that she started the car without Ginna in the car. Then Ginna called out and told Tiffany to stop the car. Natasha was just sitting in the car being cool about the whole thing while Tiffany and Ginna were freaking out. She was the one that was cool about this and she was trying to tell Tiffany to slow down because Tiffany was driving way to fast. "Tiffany they are not going to be leaving so slow down." "But I want to get there!" "We know, but they are still going to be there when we get there,” said Ginna. “Fine,” Tiffany said with anger. “You don’t have to get mad at us. It isn’t our fault that they didn’t show up,” said Natasha. “OK. I am sorry for making a big deal out of this it is just that I was really excited about them showing up.” “We know,” Ginna and Natasha said. The girls ended on Rodeo Drive and drove into the entrance at the Hilton. They told the people that they were only staying a little bit, but the greeters still went and parked their car even though Ginna, Tiffany, and Natasha didn’t want them to. They didn’t want to worry about it because the most important thing was to see the Jones Brothers. They decided to go first to the concierge and ask what room the Jones Brothers were staying in, but it didn’t turn out how they had planned. They walked up to the concierge and started talking to this guy named Sam. He wasn’t very friendly at all. “We were wondering if you could tell us what room the Jones Brothers are staying in? Please!” said Tiffany as if she was about to cry. “Sorry, they’re not staying here,” Sam said while he was playing Nintendo. “We know that they are staying here because they said if we needed to reach them that we should call here, so we know that they are here.” Natasha was getting a little annoyed. “THEY AREN’T HERE SO LEAVE ME ALONE” Sam said as loud as he could, so the girls could tell he had problems with stress. “FINE,” they said without any other thought in their head, even though they already had figured out a backup plan. The girls left the main entrance to the hotel, but then they walked around to the restaurant entrance and snuck in through there then went straight up the elevators. Then, of course, Ginna tripped and fell being the clumsy person that she is. Both Tiffany and Natasha started cracking up because it was just so funny. Then Ginna got up quickly so the concierge guy wouldn’t see them. There were 35 floors on this hotel, so they decided to start on the top and work their way down to look for them. As they entered the 35th floor, they saw the Jones Brothers mom, Denny, coming onto the elevator. They knew that it was the Jones Brothers level because as soon as they entered the floor they saw their body guard Big Bob standing next to suite 3516 and they knew it was the Jones Brother’s room. They didn’t know how they should approach Big Bob, but they decided to go straight up to him and tell him what their problem was and not that they were just some crazed fans that wanted to see them. They went up a little intimidated because Big Bob was a giant, but he understood what had happened and he was going to let them see them. He opened the door and led the girls into the living room where Nikko, Jake, and Kyle were playing on the guitar and was working on a new song. It sounded really good from what the girls could hear, but they stopped playing when the girls got into the room, and asked Big Bob who they were. Big Bob hadn’t gotten our names yet so he let them introduce themselves, “Hi my name is Tiffany,” Tiffany could barely say because she was just in shock that she was being able to meet them. Then Natasha spoke as if she had known them her whole life, “Hi my name is Natasha.” Finally it was Ginna’s turn and she couldn’t have said her name faster it sounded like she said, “blah.” Ginna was shaking and could hardly believe that she was in the same presence as a big Hollywood star. Then Big Bob explained to the Jones Brothers that this was the girl whose birthday party they had missed this evening. The Jones Brothers realized what Big Bob was talking about, but they didn’t care. They just told Big Bob to show the girls out of the room and to leave them alone. The girls were in shock their idols who they thought were perfect gentlemen, but really they are jerks who don’t even care about fans. They also don’t care when they are paid money to come perform for someone’s birthday. The girls could hardly believe that the Jones Brothers were terrible people, but they weren’t leaving there till they got some answers. So they told Big Bob that they weren’t leaving until the Jones Brothers told them why they weren’t at the party. He understood but he told us good luck because the Jones Brothers don’t like people disturbing them. Then after Big Bob left the room the Jones brothers looked up again to make sure that the fans was gone, but when they looked up and saw the girls they could see Nikko, Kyle, and Jake getting really mad. When they tried to call Big Bob in to escort the girls out of the room he wouldn’t answer. He told them to be nice to the girls and apologize to them. “Ok so what do you want, “asked Jake? “We want to know why you didn’t show up for the party” Ginna said “Why should we tell you it isn’t that big of a deal,” Nikko Said “It is to me it was my sweet sixteen,” Tiffany told them. “Well sorry,” Kyle said sarcastically. “You don’t even mean it,” Natasha nagged? “So”, Jake said "It doesn't matter that much." “Why are you guys so mean. We thought you were good people, but I guess we were wrong. You guys were our idols and its good we found out how bad you guys are now then later. All you guys care about is money.” Said Natasha “That’s not true,” said Nikko “Yeah we love our fans and we don’t just care about money,” Kyle said agreeing with Nikko “Well it doesn’t seem like it because you just take our money and don’t even perform. That isn’t showing much love for your fans.” Ginna said “Yes and we are sorry that we couldn’t make it. We realize that it was wrong to blow you off,” said Nikko “Really you actually mean that you are sorry for not coming to my birthday party,” said Tiffany “No,” Nikko said “Well you should be,” Natasha said. “We don't care as long a as we are paid that's all we care about,”Jake said. “See that's what we mean, you guys don't even care about us,” all three girls said. The girls where so taken back that there favorite band were awful people who didn't care about anything but themselves, and they couldn't believe that this night that was suppose to be great for Tiffany. Instead it was the worst sweet sixteen anyone could ever ask for. They left the hotel almost in tears. On the way back home none of them talked about what had just happened, and didn't talk about the Jones Brothers for about two weeks until they got a surprise that none of them were expecting. Ginna was out getting the mail, and when she stepped out of the house she saw a limo with three boys standing outside next to the limo and Ginna knew exactly who it was. Nikko, Jake, and Kyle were there. Ginna yelled and told Tiffany and Natasha to come outside. None of girls understood why they were there, so they all went up to see what they wanted. "What doyou want," Natasha said "We would like to apolgize for being such jerks and we want to bring you a refund for the money that you gave to us to preform at your birthday,"Nikko explained. "We really appreachiate that," Tiffany said "And we are sorry that we were such jerks to you, and we invite you to got to our next concert next week," Jake explained. "It's ok we understand that you guys have a lot of demands being superstars and everything, "Natasha said. "Thanks so have fun at our concert," Kyle said. "We will," Ginna said while she was jumping up and down. "Ok well bye," the three boys said. "Bye," the three girls said. After that the girls couldn't wait to go to the concert the next week, because they knew that the Jones Brothers were telling the truth. They were really sorry for acting like jerks and blowing off Tiffany's Birthday Party.
