A B5 Tale - Lovin' You

A B5 tale.

2006, July

I’m so sorry. Are you ok? I’m really sorry.

It’s ok. I’ve had someone spill hot chocolate on me before. Lucky my shirt is brown no worries I’m sure it’ll dry out.

Hi. I’m Patrick Breeding.

I’m Renae Michaels. Patrick Breeding? Oh my gosh aren’t you from that band B5?

Yea um…shh.

So what brings you into Melrose music café without your brothers?

Well I just wanted to get away from the fans and lay low. So I kinda ran away from the boys. I don’t wanna be the one all the girls like Patrick of B5 for a change I just want to be a kid. Plain Patrick Owen Breeding that can hang out anywhere, without having a mob of girls following him.

Poor you.

So how bout we have a normal conversation?

Sure.

What were you listening to before I spilt that hot chocolate on you? Once again I’m really sorry.

It’s fine. Well actually I was listening to a B5 song.

Oh no don’t tell me you’re a fan.

Yes but I’m not obsessed. I don’t see why people should ever be obsessed over a band. I mean they are people too. No such thing as celebrities in my books. People is people. That’s my motto.

Nice. So which song?

Back in your arms. Sounds a lot like Jackson 5, full of soul and it’s got a good hook. Bryan has a great voice.

Hey what about me?

Oh you too. What are you jealous of your little bro.

Me, naw Bry is ma boy.

B5~B5~B5~B5~B5~B5~B5~B5~B5~B5~B5~B5~B5~B5

No way you collect bugs too.

Yea but the boys hate it. To tell you the truth Carnell and Kelly are scared as hell of the Christmas beetles I got when we were touring Australia.

Hmm… Smallville or The O.C?

Smallville. I like the whole paranormal stuff.

Same.

The Simpsons or Family guy?

Simpsons straight up. Eat my shorts.

Same. Ok how bout I ask another question.

Sure I was actually getting blocked.

Ok let’s see. The movies or the movies and dinner.

Movie I’m not fussy.

Ok just the movies. How about next week Wednesday?

What?!

Will you go with me to the movies next week Wednesday? I had a good time today and I’d like to see you again.

Are sure you won’t be busy or anything?

No every Wednesday we’re free. Hey you could even meet my brothers.

Ok then. How about 2?

Sure. So can I have you’re sevens?

Ha you trying to use the B5 charm on me? Very corny but sure you can have em.

Chapter 2 - Just Friends

Monday 16th July, 2006

Yea ok mama. phone vibrates

♫Don’t wake me
I’m still dreaming
I don’t see you
I can’t feel you
I’m alone for real in my mind♫

Hello

Hey Nae.

Oh hey Pat I was just gonna call you.

Are you still up for Wednesday?

Yep. Just my moms said I should go with a friend you know how it is these days with keeping safe.

It's cool you can bring a friend.

Thanks but that's not the problem. The thing is she's my best friend and B5 fan. She's crazi about Dustin.

No probs she can come I'll just warn Diz.

You sure?

Yea it's all cool. Can't wait till i see you again.

You too.

Bye. he flips his phone shut then sighs.

B5~B5~B5~B5~B5~B5~B5~B5~B5~B5~B5

~With Dustin~

Hey Dustin, skittle?

Yea sure..wait! What do you want? You don't normally wanna share your skittles.

Silence

Ok you know that girl i told you about. Renae.

Yea we meeting her on Wednesday at the movies.

Ya well she's bringing a friend with her. Apparently she's a big B5 fan and she's craziboutyou.

Say what? Repeat the part.

She's craziboutyou.

What?

Dawg she is crazy about you.

What?! Oh no. Do i still have to go?

Brov if you don't the girl will be angry with Nae. Then Nae will be angry with me.

Ok ok. Sheesh you must like her a lot. My little bro has a crush.

No i don't she's a friend and a who happens to not be like all the obsessors. She's not other girls she's real cool. Believe me we're just friends.

Denial man. he looks at him in disbelief.

"Denial. Who? who? Please tell me.

Pat here. He's got feelings for that girl Renae.

Word that girl we're gonna meet? Yo Kellz,Carnell you gotta hear this.

Bryan! (he looks at him as if to say:"yes thank you tell everyone!" then looks to Dustin as if to say: "Shut up!")

What up? We just got onto the next level of Transformers(the game PS 2 game) (Carnell)

Yea where's the beef? (Kelly)

Patrick's got a crush. It's that girl we're meeting. Renae.

OOH. they both say.

Ouch. Patrick had hit him upside (Bryan)

Everyone quit it. We're just friends. He storms off.

As I said "DENIAL". He says it in a sing song voice. (Dustin)

[Song is Kelis - Suspended. I just really like the lyrics.]

Chapter 3 - At the cinema.

Ok Liv when they get here please calm down. If you freak out Dustin he'll be angry with Pat. Then Pat will be angry with me.

Girl take a chill pill. Dizzy isn't like that, he super fine and real kind.

E-hm have you met him before (she's probably gonna go on about her so real dreams about him)

Yea...

Silence

In my dreams but they felt so real.

Ehum.(knew it) Her hand bag makes a crackling sound.

What's dat in your bag

Nothing. she says without thinking twice.

Sure it's nothing. shes says sarcastically (could it be a little something for a Patrick)

B5~B5~B5~B5~B5~B5~B5~B5~B5~B5~B5

Aiit guys now don't do anything in front of Nae and her friend. I mean it. he looks straight at Bryan.

He just doesn't wanna lose her. Bryan whispers to Carnell.

I heard that.

You know what Kelz. says Dustin

What

Denial's a real nice word.

Yea man it is. Check this out. starts rapping

♫D--E--N--I-A-L

The boy's got denial.
He's walking a mile.
He just won't admit it.
He tells us to quit.
The boy's got denial.
He's walking a mile.
Carrying this burden on his back.
Cos he hasn't told her that.
She's the reason for his smile.
Yo what can he do. He's got denial.

D--E--N--I-A-L♫

Haha funny Kelz. says Pat sarcastically

There they are. they walk towards Renae and Olivia.

Hey Renae

Pat POV

She looks really beautiful today. Those purple butterfly earrings look so perfect on her

End POV

Hey Pat Um this is my friend Olivia.

Nice to meet you.

You too.

Renae, Olivia my brothers.

Y'all, Renae. Her friend Olivia.

Hey Renae. Hey Olivia.

Hey y'all can call me Nae.

Hey y'all can call me Liviy or Liv.

Dustin POV (while shaking Liviy's hand.)

Woah. I'm glad i came Olivia is so fine. I wanna get to know her more at the end this.

End POV

Olivia POV

Can't believe this is happening. I'm shaking Dustin's hand. Damn is even more gorgeous in person.

End POV


Hey so what movie are we gonna watch?

There’s Bring it on: All or Nothing, John Tucker Must Die and Big Momma’s House 2 cos all the other movies are sold out. So how about we watch Big Momma’s House 2 if y’all don’t like chick flicks Liviy and I are ok with it. Right, Liviy?

“Yea we are”, she said though she was still in a sort of trance still thinking of Dustin.

“Ok guys so let’s get tickets”, says Bryan eagerly.

They walk towards the Ticket Booth.

“Hey Jimmy”, says Nae.

Hey, girl been a long time. How you doing?

All the boys seem a bit stunned.

Real good just focusing on my studies you know. She smiles

Whoa so she’s a people person and study girl.

Yea. Keep doing that. So what movie you guys wanna see.

Big Momma’s House 2. We need seven tickets.

Whoa that’s a lot. Here you go. That’s about $42.

Thanks. Have a good one Jimmy. Gives him money.

Bye Nae.

Patrick walks upto Nae. “Nae you know you didn’t have to pay cos I asked you to come and all.”

Yea you shoulda let my bone-head brother pay.

It’s ok Bryan. Doesn’t matter guys.

PART MISSING!!!!!

[i]The credits start rolling.[/i]

So what did you think of the movie?

It was really good but I think I preferred the first. How bout you?

Naw this one I liked the whole dance thing at the end.

They starts walking out and Renae spotted out a Dizzy with his arm around Liviy.

“Hey guys nice movie eh?”Says Liviy.

Yep it was so funny.

Well Liviy and I thought we’d go take a walk around the park across the street.

Cool. Liv call me when you’re done cos we gotta go home together remember.

Yars. Kk. See ya. Bye Pat.

Bye Liv.

Hey where they be going?

The park for a walk.

Cool let’s go to the arcade.

You wanna go.

YA!! I wanna whoop yours.

Ooh we’ll see about that. What do you wanna play?

Dance Dance Revolution.

Which artist?

Ciara.

Piece of cake.

We’ll see.

“The first level is the workout. Note it does not contain any of Ciara’s songs.” Said the speaker thing.

The first level started with the Macarena then ended off with the Moonwalk which Patrick won.

The second level is the real deal. So work your stuff players.

The second level was 1, 2 Step then it ended off with music makes you lose control. Which Nae won.

You were lucky this time there’s one more round left please don’t cry when I win.

Excuse you’ll be crying when I’m done.

Go Nae whoop his.

Yea Renae don’t let him win.

Go Nae. Show him how it’s done.

“Level 3 is the Dance off. Players bust a move and break it down.”

It was a mixture of random songs and mixes this time including dances for Get up and Oh!

Victory! She walks upto him. Yes and this is how we do. Then she pulled his shirt just like Xzibit does after he’s pimped your ride. (I have no clue what that’s called).

Woot!!! Nae, Nae, Nae, Nae.

Patrick POV

WOW she’s awesome!

End POV.
Wanna get some fresh air?

Sure. Where'd you learn how to dance?

That's for me to know and you to find out.

Chapter 4 - A moment like this

Park bench with Dizzy & Liviy

So I hear you’re a fan huh?

Yea but I’m not groupish ok.

Chill chill. So tell me about you’re self.

What’s there to tell?

A lot. Like favorite music.

All types but mainly soul and R&B.

Favorite football team?

Atlanta Falcons.

Favorite food?

Lasagna.

Favorite Drink?

Lemonade.

Favorite holiday?

Christmas

Salt or Sugar?

Sugar

Bitter or sweet?

Bittersweet.

Ooh hmm… Favorite female singer.

Alicia Keys.

Favorite male singer?

You.

What?

You, Dustin are my favorite male singer. Now it’s your turn.

Girl I can show you better than I can tell you. He looks into her eyes. Then…

B5~B5~B5~B5~B5~B5~B5~B5~B5~B5~B5

Bench with Pat and Nae.

So how do you like Olivia?

She's cool but we hardly talked seeing as she was with Dustin. Dustin says he likes her aswell.

Heck they only just met.

How long you guys been friends for?

Well we've known each other since we were 4 and we also live next door to each other. So we've been there for each other during our childhood. You see when i was 10 my older sister, Bridget died. It was a car accident with her boyfriend. He died on the spot, she was in hospital for two weeks then passed.

My condolences.

Um yea so she was there for me. We also support each other’s dreams an all. All my life I’ve been in Atlanta and I’ve never traveled much. My dream is to go to Cali for College, Berkeley, Howard in DC maybe even Havard. I wanna be a writer.

Cool what would you write?

Teen stuff and lessons of growing up stuff like that and maybe about politics what the world leaders are doing wrong. Big issues like Global Warming and reducing poverty. I also sometimes write songs like when i'm feeling down.

Wow. You pretty much have everything planned. People think we have it easy but we don’t really. People don’t really treat us like human. They treat us as if we’re above human and some celebrities just go along with it. They’re no better than anyone else. Then there’s paparazzi all up in your space trying to find out your connections. With tours we’re busy all the time that sometimes we don’t get to see our friends but I’m feel blessed that I have my brothers with me.

I bet there are also people that go upto you and say hello.

That part I find funny. If the Breeding brothers weren’t famous and no one knew us then nobody would be saying hello and screaming our names. Would someone really want speak to us if we weren’t famous? ( I would speak to y’all.yars you guys are hott.)

I would. She smiles.

Hmm. he smiles back.Thank You.

There’s a lot going in our world so be blessed.

Starts to sing:

What's wrong with the world, mama
People livin' like they ain't got no mamas
I think the whole world addicted to the drama
Only attracted to things that'll bring you trauma

What?

Finish it.

Well this isn’t a live Patrick concert. I’ll only continue if you sing with me.

Haha ok I’ll join you at the chorus.

Overseas, yeah, we try to stop terrorism
But we still got terrorists here livin'
In the USA, the big CIA
The Bloods and The Crips and the KKK
But if you only have love for your own race
Then you only leave space to discriminate
And to discriminate only generates hate
And when you hate then you're bound to get irate, yeah
Madness is what you demonstrate
And that's exactly how anger works and operates
Man, you gotta have love just to set it straight
Take control of your mind and meditate
Let your soul gravitate to the love, y'all


Renae joins in

People killin', people dyin'
Children hurt and you hear them cryin'
Can you practice what you preach
And would you turn the other cheek

Father, Father, Father help us
Send some guidance from above
'Cause people got me, got me questionin'
Where is the love (Love)

Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love
The love, the love

Why you stop?

Wow

What? Am i singing in the wrong key.

You sing too?? You sound amazing.

Let’s continue.

Um..It just ain't the same, always unchanged
New days are strange, is the world insane
If love and peace is so strong
[color=red]Why are there pieces of love that don't belong
Nations droppin' bombs
Chemical gasses fillin' lungs of little ones
With ongoin' sufferin' as the youth die young
So ask yourself is the lovin' really gone
So I could ask myself really what is goin' wrong
In this world that we livin' in people keep on givin'
in
Makin' wrong decisions, only visions of them dividends
Not respectin' each other, deny thy brother
A war is goin' on but the reason's undercover
The truth is kept secret, it's swept under the rug
If you never know truth then you never know love
Where's the love, y'all, come on (I don't know)
Where's the truth, y'all, come on (I don't know)
Where's the love, y'all
[/color]

People killin', people dyin'
Children hurt and you hear them cryin'
Can you practice what you preach
And would you turn the other cheek


Father, Father, Father help us
Send some guidance from above
'Cause people got me, got me questionin'
Where is the love ([color=red]Love)[/color]

Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love, the love, the love?

Their eyes lock as they sing.

I feel the weight of the world on my shoulder
As I'm gettin' older, y'all, people gets colder
Most of us only care about money makin'
Selfishness got us followin' our wrong direction
Wrong information always shown by the media
Negative images is the main criteria
Infecting the young minds faster than bacteria
Kids wanna act like what they see in the cinema
Yo', whatever happened to the values of humanity
Whatever happened to the fairness in equality
Instead of spreading love we're spreading animosity
Lack of understanding, leading lives away from unity
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' under
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' down
There's no wonder why sometimes I'm feelin' under
Gotta keep my faith alive till love is found
Now ask yourself

Where is the love?
Where is the love?
Where is the love?
Where is the love?

They sing in unison: Father, Father, Father help us
Send some guidance from above
'Cause people got me, got me questionin'
Where is the love?

Sing wit me y'all:
One world, one world[color=brown] (We only got)
One world, one world (That's all we got)
One world, one world
[/color]And something's wrong wit it [color=red](Yeah)
Something's wrong wit it (Yeah)
Something's wrong wit the wo-wo-world, yeah
We only got
(One world, one world)
That's all we got
(One world, one world)
[/color]

Nae where is the love?

They kiss.

♫Count on me through thick and thin
A friendship that will never end
When you are weak, I will be strong
Helping you to carry on♫

the kiss is broken by the ringing of her phone.

Um... my phone. Sorry. Hello. Yea Liv, ok i'm coming.

Patrick i gotta go. So um.. catch ya later tell the boys i said bye.

Yea um sure.

She walks away.
There's so much awkwardness between them now. What will become of the two? Will Renae realise her feelings for him is Patrick gonna be Mr. Denial. So much more to come.

[color=red] Let’s go Liv. Um…bye Dustin. [/color]

[i]Bye Dustin. She smiles. [/i]

Yea bye Liv.

Nae guess what?

[color=red]Liviy I’m not really in the mood for guessing. [/color]

Well ok. Dustin and I kissed.

[color=red]No way Liv. [/color]

Yes way.

[color=red]But..you only just met the guy.[/color]

I know but we both have feelings for each other. We clicked straight away, we’ve got good chemistry.

[color=red]Sounds a bit fast to me but congrats. [/color]

Thanks and I think it’s going a bit fast too so we’re on a date tomorrow to find out more about each other. It’s so exciting.

[color=red]Yea. [/color]

What’s up?

[color=red]What up with what?[/color]

You’re moods different from when it was during the movie. What happened?

[color=red]Nothing.[/color]

Ehmm…ok if you don’t tell me then…

[color=red]Then what?[color]

I’ll tell yo mama something went down.

[color=red]You wouldn’t cos then you wouldn’t be able to see Dustin Michael Breeding.[/color]

Ok then I’d tell B5 your secret. Now spill.

[color=red]Damn…you’re evil. Alright I’ll tell you. [/color]

Good. (knew she would she can’t keep anything from me)

[color=red]Well after you and Dustin left, the rest of the boys and I went to the arcade. Patrick’s all like what do you wanna play? So I say Dance Dance Revolution, we played all 3 levels and I won. Then he said let’s go get some air so we went to a bench and started talking.[/color]

About what?

[color=red]Well he told me thoughts sometimes it’s not easy being famous and I told about Bridget and my dreams to go to Berkeley. Soon we were singing “Where is the love?”[/color]

“Where is the love?”

[color=red]Yea. Our eyes locked without us thinking, we grew close, the song ended then…[/color]

Then what? What?

[color=red]We kissed. It felt so natural like we’d known each other forever. Like we were the only two people that existed. [/color]

Aah.

[color=red]My phone rang and you were on the other line and it felt so awkward. Thanks Liv.[/color]

Why and for what reason, interrupting?

[color=red]Well I think he made a mistake.[/color]

What?!

[color=red]Liviy there are other girls out there prettier than I am that he could choose to be with. There are dancers, singers, actresses maybe even skinny models. Heck I only met him last week. I don’t know anything about him. Why would he want to be with me and are my feelings real? Remember what happened with Chris. I don’t want to go through that again.[/color]

Well all I gotta say is you need to talk to him. If it was a mistake then be strong cos he will not know what he’s missing out on. If it wasn’t a mistake then all you gotta do is trust in him.

[color=red] I dunno. [/color]

Call him.

[color=red]Ok later bye.[/color]

Don’t lose focus. Could it be. Do you really like him. Hmm.. it’s like that Whitney Houston song.
Howz it go.

There's a boy I know, he's the one I dream of
Looks into my eyes, takes me to the clouds above
Ooh I lose control, can't seem to get enough
When I wake from dreaming, tell me is it really love

How will I know (Don't trust your feelings)
How will I know
How will I know (Love can be deceiving)
How will I know
How will I know if he really loves me
I say a prayer with every heart beat
I fall in love whenever we meet
I'm asking you what you know about these things
How will I know if he's thinking of me
I try to phone but I'm too shy (can't speak)
Falling in love is all bitter sweet
This love is strong why do I feel weak

Why do I feel so weak.

Chapter 5 – Liviy and Dizzy’s date.

Thanks for coming round Nae. I feel really nervous but also excited.

No probs, I live next door and besides you know I’ll aways be there for you.

Thanks Nae.

Thanks.
