Duration: 3:14
"Congratulations! You are our one hundredth caller! You have just won three front row tickets to the Jonas Brothers concert in Chicago, Illinois and backstage passes to meet the brothers before and after the show!" the same voice from the radio proclaimed in her ear. Catie hit the brakes and stopped the car abruptly dead in its tracks off to the side of the road, "Are you serious? I won?!" she asked breathlessly into the phone. "Yes young lady you did!" Catie screamed at the top of her lungs, jumped out of the car and danced around on the side of the highway. Cars passing her honked and hollered at her to get back into her car. After telling the radio station her name, address, and number, Catie got back into the car to call her two best friends to invite them to come with her for this once in a life time experience. Now the concert was less than three hours away. Catie walked toward the door of her bedroom but stopped and turned to look at the two walls she had decorated with the posters of the Jonas Brothers. She called it her Jonas Wall. She set the ticket, backstage pass and her keys back down in the dresser and took a couple steps toward the posters then paused at one of Nick. His curly brown hair rested messily around his face, complimenting his perfect features. He had a quirky but sweet and innocent smile. His dark brown eyes seemed to stare into Caties. "Catie, youre going to be late!" her mother yelled from the kitchen downstairs. "Oh, yeah... Be right there!" Catie replied and looked away from the mesmerizing poster. Catie shivered and made her way to her closet. She slid opened the door and grabbed her blue, Abercrombie and Fitch zip up hoodie. She pulled it on and zipped it up all the way. Catie was finally ready and so she took one last look at herself in the mirror and checked the time on her phone; 4:35, an hour and twenty five minutes until they were going to leave. She smiled to herself and took one last look at the poster of Nick Jonas. Just a couple hours before we come face-to-face, Catie thought to herself. She walked towards her bedroom door, shut off the light, and closed it. "Hey, Ma," she greeted her mother as she walked into the kitchen and took a seat on a stool at the island counter. Her mom, Michelle, was loading the dishwasher. "Are you sure you dont need anything? I can give you some money or let you borrow my car. Its cleaner than yours," her mother turned towards her with a smile and patted her hands dry with a dish towel. She leaned back, propping her elbows up on the counter top. "No, were all good. I have to leave here in about two minutes and I thought Id just come and say goodbye," Catie replied and jumped off of the stool then strode towards her mom to give her a hug. "Have a great time, Baby girl. I know youve been waiting forever for this," Michelle whispered to her daughter. Catie pulled away then started toward the front door. "Oh! Wait, forgot my keys," Catie turned back around and dashed in the direction of her room. She opened the door when she then in the dark, she slowly made her way back towards her dresser and snatched up her keys. She departed the room and closed the door behind her.
