Damian had finished kissing Lauren and took her up to her room where they played a game of wii soccer it was more peaceful without Paul. Ryan was lying on his bed. His cellphone rang, "Hello" he answered. "Hi." I girls voice answered. It was a voice he did not recognize. "My mom told me I could talk to you." "Um, who is this?" Ryan asked trying to be polite. "Oh I am Jennifer. Lauren's sister, she is visiting you right now. I am coming to pick her up, but I decided to come early. This summer I am coming to Ireland for a month and I wont be able to see much of Northern Ireland so I wanted to see it. Do you mind." "No of course not. But not to be rude, have I met you?" "No I was in Law school when you came over." "I can't wait to meat you Jen. When will you be here?" "Tomorrow afternoon." She replied. "Awesome, I will not be able to pick you up, but one of my best buds will be there, call me when you get here and I will give you more info." He did not feel safe letting Damian drive. "Thanks so much Ryan." Jennifer said, she hung up the phone. As soon as Ryan hung up his phone, it rang, "Hello?" "Hey Ry, can I come over?" "Sure, just do me a favor okay."

Thanks for letting me stay." "Oh you wont be alone." "I wont?" "No. Damian is visiting, do to the fact Lauren is visiting." "Wait Lauren is their. I am so confused." "Okay. Lauren's sister is coming to pick her up. But she is coming early since she wont get to see much of northern Ireland next summer when she visits. So she wants to see Norther Ireland." "Oh, okay, I get it now." "Um where are you?" Ryan asked. The voice did a nervous laugh, "In your driveway." "I appreciate you calling before you decide to stay." Ryan said sarcastically. "I am coming in now." The voice said as he hung up. "I'm here!" He yelled. Damian and Lauren heard the voice. They came running down the stairs.

"Paul!" Lauren and Damian yelled, as than ran towards him, plowing him to the ground. Paul just laughed. "Wait," Damian state suspiciously, "What are you doing here?" "Doing a favor for Ryan." Paul stated, really he was just visiting but he wanted to sound official. "And what would that be?" Lauren asked. "You will find out tomorrow." "I can't wait." Lauren said. "Hey, we are playing Wii football." Damian started. "Damian we do not have enough for even teams plus last time we played with Paul we almost broke the TV." "Forgot about that." Damian said, "You know what Paul, why don't you come surfing with us tomorow." Lauren elboed Damian in the ribs. "It wont hurt, Keith will be their." Damian reasoned. "So he can murder Paul with a surfboard." Lauren started to laugh. Paul broke in, "We will take our chances. I would love to come, but I might be late." "Why would you be late?" Ryan asked walking up. "Because, when you no who told you tomorrow after noon she was probably talking about the afternoon over their." "Oh, let me call her back." Ryan said. Paul, Damian, and Lauren went out back to play with Molly, Harry was sitting on top of the tellivison. Ryan went through his calls list and called Jennifer's number. "Hello." The sweet voice said. "Hey, it's Ryan." "Oh hi." "I have the information you need. The guy picking you up his name is Paul. Can you tell me again what time your plane is ariivng here." "Sure, I was a little bit confused when I told you earlier. My plane will arrive at six thirty in the morning." "Great. Um, have a bathing suit, where you can access it easily." "Why?" Jennifer was confused. Why would she need a bathing suit, in winter in Ireland. "Everyone but me is going surfing tomorrow and Paul is picking you up and then going their." "But I don't know how to surf. That is more my sister's thing." "Thier will be people there to teach you. I promise." "Okay, thanks once again Ryan. Lauren was right you really are the coolest uncle ever." Jennifer hung up. Ryan went upstairs. He had to prepare a room for her. From what his sister told him, Jen loved pink and blue, and she loved to travel. Ryan went to the store and bought stuff for Jen's room. He came home. Damian and Lauren were outside playing football. Paul had come in he was listening to a song Keith had recorded. "Hey Paul, help me set up Jennifer's room." "Okay." Between the to of them it took longer than it should have. And it was all because Paul did not know how to make a bed. "She is gonna love this." Paul said wiping his hands, and grinning. Ryan just gave him a look, "Oh be quiet." Ryan and Paul walked down stairs. The football was on the table Lauren and Damian were sitting their. "I guess you two are hungry." "Yep." Lauren said smiling. "What's for dinner." "Food." Ryan replied. Damian knew Lauren hated that so he just started laughing. "I am going to make steak. Your dad taught Keith how to do it Texas style and Keith taught me." Ryan fixed the steaks and put them on the grill. While they were cooking their was a knock on the door. "Damian will you get that please." "Sure no problem." Damian said, getting up. He walked to the front door. He opened the door. He stood their a minute then burst out laughing.
I hope y'all liked it. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE tell me what ya think. sorry for the somewhat cliffhanger. love ya. P.S. Keith is coming a promise

Keith was standing on the porch. Duffel back slung on one arm. Surf board under opposite arm with guitar case in hand. He was grinning. Damian could not help but laughing. "Hey, mate, do ya think you could get Ryan. I need to ask him a favor." "Planning on asking him if you can stay." Damian said. "No." Keith replied. "Then what are you planning to do?" Damian asked. "Asking Ryan if I can stay with him. Their was no planning involved. It's just the waves are killer right now." "Ask Ryan what?" Ryan asked walking up. Seeing Keith in all his Keithdom he started laugh. "You could have warned me Keith. Of course you can stay a while. Just be warned Lauren is here and ,y other niece is coming tomorrow. She has the whole right wing upstairs." "Okay." Keith said, he took a second thought, "You have two nieces?" "Yes, None of us have met her though. But from what their mother has told me. She is wonderful." "Awesome Keith said. He walked in and set his stuff down. It was about dinner. Ryan had ordered pizza. Lauren was pretty tired. As was Damian. Damian went straight to bed. Lauren was about to go up the third flight of stairs, when Paul and Keith caught her arm. "Hey we are gonna pull a prank on Damian." Keith said. "You in?" Paul asked. Lauren rolled her eyes. "Sure. What are you guys going to do?" They whispered the plan in her ear. Lauren just started to laugh. It was classic. "Night guys." She said. Walking into her room. She fell asleep. The next morning she woke to the sound of knocking on the door. Lauren came to the door. Standing their was Paul and Keith. "You ready?" Keith asked. "Sure." Lauren replied. They all snuck into Damian's room. Keith was standing on the left side of the bed Paul on the right. Lauren was at the foot of the bed on the right side. Paul had shaving cream and Keith had a feather. But the moment Paul started squirting the shaving cream Damian opened his eyes and kicked.
hoped you liked it. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE tell me what ya think. love ya

A sound of hitting the wall was heard. It was all so fast. "OW!!!" No one had ever seen Damian move so fast. Fot unknowing to all of them he had kicked Lauren in the gut and made her fly against the wall. Like lightning he was by her side helping her up. "Not cool Damian." Paul, Keith, and Lauren said all together. "I'm so sorry." Damian apologized to Keith, who was giving me a look. "Hey don't appologize to me. I am not the one you kicked." Keith attempted to remind him of the talk they had that summer. Damian got the hint, "I am so sorry Lauren. That was not very nice. Instead of saving my princess I made you a damsel in distress. What can I do to make it up?" Damian was being all mushy. Paul was making the disgusted face. Keith was just rolling his eyes. And Lauren well, Lauren was just soaking it all up. She loved that kind of mushy romantic stuff, "You can save me, by baking me some cookies." "Can do." He lifted Lauren into his arms and took her downstairs. They were having cookies for breakfast. Ryan would just have to deal. Keith and Paul were still standing in the room. Just standing doing nothing. Paul then remembered. He had to pick Jennifer up. "Kietho I have to go do a favor for Ryan. Wanna come?" "Nah. I am going to head out surfing after Damo and Lauren finish their breakfast." he put air quotes around breakfast. "I'll join ya when I get back." "Okay" Keith replied as they both walked out of the room. Keith went to the kitchen, as Paul went out the front door. Paul got in his car and drove to the airport. Jennifer's plane was landing about now. He parked and went inside, to the baggage claim. How was he going to get Jennifer's attention. People started coming. He noticed a girl. She looked exactly like Lauren, but was a bit shorter and had hazel green eyes. She was skinny. She looked like a ballerina. She was wearing a blue sorority t-shirt and jeans, and she had a tan trench coat draped over her arm. She had to bags with her. Paul instantly new she was Lauren's sister. She looked like Ryan's sister, and brother in-law. Paul gulped and walked up to her if he got this wrong, he new how red his face would get. "Hello, are you Jennifer, Ryan's niece." "Yes. Are you Ryan?" Jennifer asked. Paul bursted out laughing. "Oh goodness no. I am Paul. I will be picking you up. Ryan is busy remember." Jennifer's smile was contagious, "Oh sorry , yes I remember." Paul helped her get her things. They headed back. "So..." Paul was being brave, "How old are you?" "Twenty four." She replied. Paul was in shock, "Really, you look a lot younger than Lauren." "I get that alot. It doesn't help that she is about a foot taller than me." Jennifer laughed. Her laughter was contagious as well. The got home, "Well." Paul said, "Here is your house for however long you are staying." Jen's reaction was the exact same as Lauren's when she first saw the house. "Really?" She asked. "Really." Paul replied. He put the car in park and noticed Keith's new/old car still in the driveway. "What is he still doing here?" "Who?" "A friend who was supposed to be at the beach by now." "Oh you mean Keith." "Yeah. I don't know why he still here." Paul said, hopping out of the car. He walked around and opened the door for Jennifer. He then got her stuff out of the trunk. They walked to the front door. Paul let her in. Wating on the other side was Lauren and Damian and Keith. "JENNIFER!" Lauren yelled, as she hugged her sister. Damian was smiling his gorgeous smile. Keith looked like he did not want to be their. He wanted to be on the water. "Dude," Paul whispered, "What are you still doing here." Keith motioned towards Lauren. Then whispered, "Damian also burnt the cookies he was making for her." It was still early. Paul set down all of Jen's stuff, she was ready to go surfing. Thanks to people telling her all about it, especially her sister. All of them piled out the front door. Paul, followed by Damian and Lauren, who were followed by Keith and Jen. Keith turned to look at Jennifer as he did he caught a glimpse of her eyes.
I hope y'all like it. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE tell me what ya think. love ya.

They were green like the fields, they were circled by grey, like the clouds on a day when the surf was amazing. All in all her eyes reminded him, of a wood nymph. Keith took another look at this girl, she looked like fairy. With out a second thought he knew he had fallen in love. He had love at first sight, something he thought was impossible for him. He did not even know her. He decided to keep his love a secret. Jennifer on the other hand did not give him a second look. This brought Keith down a little. They loaded the car, and they were off to the beach. Somehow they had managed to fit into Keith's car. They arrived at the beach. Damian took Lauren and Keith's guitars, and Lauren, Keith, and Paul grabbed the surfboards. They set the stuff down, Keith had migrated towards Jennifer, "So do ya know how to surf?" he asked. "Yeah, but I am not very good." She replied. Lauren, Damian, and Paul had gone out already and were riding the waves. "Well," Keith started. He was laying it thick with the charm, "I will have you surfing like a pro in no time." Jennifer laughed, she tended to like guys who could make her laugh. Jennifer and Keith walked out, they started to paddling. And like an artist painting a painting, or the sugar plum fairy doing her thirty two fouettes, she stood up on the board with grace and ease. She stood up for a while but quickly fell. Keith was mesmerized by her. The perfect form, getting up it mirrored her sister. He knew Lauren had taught her and she had done well. Jennifer made her way back towards Keith, "See I told you I am not that good." "What are you out of your mind, you are amazing." Jen just laughed, "That's what Lauren says to." "Next time we come out I am bringing a video camera and I am going to show you how graceful and elegant you are getting up on that board. If you think staying up does not make you good then your wrong. Although it helps I can teach you how to keep your balance even longer." "Thanks." Keith started giving her instruction. She tried again, she stayed up. By the end of the day she was pulling of some tricks. They ended the day by keith and Lauren playing some songs. The last thing that was sung, was a song written by Damian for Lauren, it was called Knight in Shining Armor. The two sang it as a duet. "That is an awesome song." Jennifer commented," Damian you nailed what will make my sister be swept off her feet perfectly." "Thank you." Damian was glad, someone else besides Lauren was flattered by his song. They piled back into Keith's car and headed to Ryan's house. Jennifer ended up in shotgun. In the back of her mind she liked Keith but that was all. She heard Lauren and her Mom say that her uncle was good looking, she wondered how much they were exaggerating. They walked in the house, the smell of Ryan's famous fajita's met each of their noses. The walked to the kitchen. Ryan had just finished, dinner. Jennifer thought well they were not exaggerating to much. She looked over at Keith, and felt something.

even though know one is reading it is time for an update It was Lauren tapping on her shoulder. Lauren pulled Jennifer's arm and took her out of the kitchen, "You like Keith don't you." "No." Jennifer said. This statement was mostly true. "You have said that about only the guys you really like. Plus I saw the way you were looking at him. And how you were pretending like you did not know how to surf." Lauren argued. "Look I have not surfed in a long time, and I have not said that stuff." Jennifer replied back. Both her and Lauren got in fights but this one they were both laughing especially Lauren. Ryan then popped his head out of the kitchen door. "We are waiting." Lauren and Jen just laughed and they walked into the kitchen. Ryan sat at the head of the table, and Paul at the other end, there were two empty chairs, one by Damian and one by Keith. Jennifer and Lauren raced towards the chair next to Damian. Now Lauren knew that Jen was shy towards guys she liked, and Jen was not going to admit it. Lauren got to the chair next to Damian first. Even if Jen got their first she would end up sitting next to her boyfriend. Jen rolled her eyes, sighed and sat in the chair next to Keith. Paul was laughing, at the sight of the sisters. Damian leaned into Lauren and whispered, "So does she like Keith?" Lauren answered, "Well she wont admit it." Damian laughed. "So how were the waves today?" Ryan asked. Keith, like lightning, answered, "They were awesome, and Jen here is a natural surfer." "Really now." Ryan said, "It must run in the family." Paul laughed again, "Ryan have you even tried to get up on a board?" Ryan sheepishly answered, "No." Everyone at the table laughed. Damian trying to be a gentlemen said, "Well, I can tell you that beauty runs with the women in your family." Lauren laughed, and jokingly hit Damian, "Damian." Then Jennifer laughed and blushed at the same time. Damian got embarrassed, "I will just shut up now." Keith laughed. "I can tell you gracefulness runs in the whole family." Everyone laughed. Ryan then said, "Thank you." "I meant with Lauren and Jennifer, I know Lauren is a dancer, but not so sure about Jennifer." He turned to Jennifer, His ocean blue eyes stared into her celtic colored eyes, "You look like a dancer, and I know dancers are graceful." He was very kind. He could not stop looking at her eyes they intrigued him so much. They were grey but with a silver tint, and right around the pupil their was a green ring that faded into the grey. "Well I did dance, but that was a while ago." Then Paul said something out of the blue.
I hope y'all liked it. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE Comment and tell me what ya think I am BEGGING. love ya

"You know I used to dance." The entire table erupted with laughter. Damian fell out of his chair with Ryan following in pursuit. "What is so funny?" Paul asked. More laughter. "You a dancer?" Lauren asked surprised as she continued to laugh. "Yes, I was on a show called jigs and reals." Paul replied still not understanding why everyone was laughing. "You doing a jig must be a real hoot." Keith said, making Jennifer laugh so hard that her drink came out her nose. "And their goes the gracefulness, way to go Jen." Lauren teased. After a while, the table finally quieted and they finished dinner, every once in while their would be an eruption of laughter because of Paul's comment. Dinner ended and they all helped Ryan clear the table. Damian and Lauren were playfully bumping into each other, while Keith and Jennifer stayed away from each other, although they frequently looked at each other. When they had finished they all went to the living room. "I will prove to you lot, that I can do a decent Irish jig. Turn some music on." Paul said to Ryan. Ryan turned music on it was a fast beat song. And Paul started to going, he was indeed very good, but the group could not help but laugh. "Hey Lauren why don't you show Keith what you showed me." Damian suggested. "I don't know." Lauren said. "He will love it." Damian insisted. "Oh fine." She walked over to Ryan and whispered in his ear. "Can do." Ryan said. A soft melody came through the speakers, as Lauren got in her beginning position. The smile on Damian's face grew wider. Keith then realized what the song was. The first words of Lauren and I, blared, as Lauren did chaînés while the words so see the leaves fall but when the words changed to, to the ground Lauren did a gorgeous grand jeté. Lauren was so graceful. Lauren finished dancing and the song ended. The mouths of every one had dropped. Keith had started clapping, "I am so glad, you did that Lauren." "Why." She asked. "No reason." Keith said with a smile. Damian, Paul, and Ryan knew what he was thinking, because they were thinking the exact same thing. "How did I do Jen." Lauren always wanted approval from her sister especially when it came to dance. "Couldn't have done better myself." That comment got Keith thinking. If Lauren and Jennifer were really alike. The thought quickly left his head he was rushing things a little to much, plus he had no idea if Jennifer even like him. The week ended all to soon. Lauren and Jennifer had to go home. But Damian, Keith, Paul, and Ryan all promised they would visit when they had time off. Ryan said he would visit anyway because they were family. And Damian said, he had to visit, because well Lauren was his girlfriend. At the airport, Lauren pulled Keith aside, "Her Birthday is January 24." Lauren smiled and left Keith to think.
On the plain Lauren and Jennifer had gotten first class seats thanks to their wonderful uncle Ryan, "I can't wait to go back." Jenifer said. "I am jealous." Lauren replied, even though she had been twice in one year, she always wanted to go back. "Well I will say hi to everyone for you." Jennifer laughed.
Keith wrote the date down, something he did not usually do, he had to be at her house on January twenty fourth with a present. "Hey Damo, what do ya think Jen would want for a birthday gift?" He asked. "Well, I think..." Damian started.

"You should write her a song." "What are you crazy. But it is not a bad idea." Keith said. "I know, you can thank me later." Damian teased. "Besides we all saw the look on your face." "What look?" Keith asked. "Oh nothing." Damian continued to tease. "Quit lolly gagging you two." Ryan said stepping between the two of them. "I told Sharon that as soon as we dropped them off we would be on our way to the studio." The four of them hopped into Ryan's car and they were off. "So..." Paul started, he was up to something, "What are you going to ask Sharon." "Nothing." Keith claimed, "Why do you ask?" "Because, we all no you got that look on your face for two reasons." Ryan started. "And we are just waiting for you to admit them." "You lot of gone off your rockers. I don't know what your talking about." "Sure ya don't" Paul teased. "Paul don't start anything or you are walking to the studio, we are not having a repeat of the camping trip." Ryan said. Damian started to laugh. "Hey Keith started it." Paul said. "No you did." Keith said. "No." "Yes." This went on for a while, "Hey Damian glove compartment their are earplugs will you get them." "Sure." He fished through the glove box, and found the earplugs and handed them to Ryan, who put them in. The entire time he was wondering how Keith and Paul ended up in the back seat next to each other. They finally came to the studio, Ryan was glad, he parked opened the car door, "Freedom!" He yelled. Damian almost fell out of the car he was laughing so hard.And Keith and Paul well, they were being Keith and Paul. The four of them walked into the studio. "Hey Sharon, Phil, George." Damian said. "Hello." The three answered. "How is Lauren, and Jennifer, I believe?" George asked. "They are great." Ryan replied. "Wishing she was here now, I am a prince all alone in his castle." Damian said. "Knock it off, Damian." Paul said nudging him. "Hey, I can't help it if I find a girl, and keep her." Everyone laughed at Damian's comment. "Well Keith has grown fond of Jennifer." Ryan added. "I do not." Keith said. "Oh really lad." George said laughing. "Alright guys enough play, we need to get to work." Sharon said. "Phil has got a few new songs that he wants you to sing." "Let's here em." George said. "Alright the first few are for Damian." Phil started playing the tracks. "Hey Sharon can I talk to you." He looked at the other guys, "In private." "Sure what it?" She said, as the walked away from the group. "I have a good idea, but I need you to like it." "Well what is it, I am open to anything." "Okay, here goes." Keith started, he was still kinda iffy about the whole thing.
I hope y'all like it. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE tell me what ya think. i am BEGGING. love ya

before i say anything... dancing is a sport... i will argue about if for hours... but dancing is a sport... okay onto the story.
"Well, umm, you know how I sing Lauren and I." "Yes." Sharon curiously said, she was wondering what was going on in Keith's brain, cause sometimes it was a scary place. "Well, I saw this dance too it, that was beyond words, so umm i was wondering," He paused. "Yes." Sharon said again. "If this dance could be done while I was singing it." "That is a cool idea, was it by Zara." "No." Keith got real scared, "Would it have to be done by Zara to possibly be in the show." "No." Sharon said, she was wanting to know where Keith was going with this, "Who did the dance?" "Ryan's niece, Lauren" Keith stated proudly, "This song means so much to her, and you should see the emotion she puts with it. Do you think she could do the dance while I sing the song." "I will have to think about it." Sharon replied. They walked back to the room where everyone was, "Keitho your up." Phil said. Keith walked into the booth, as soon as he could not here Sharon's voice, Sharon asked, "Ryan can I talk to you for a minute?" "Sure." Ryan replied getting off the black leather couch. He followed Sharon to where she and Keith were talking. "What did you want to talk about?" Ryan nervously asked. "Don't be nervous Ryan, but is their a way I can get hold of your sister?" "My sister, what for?" Ryan asked astonished. "I need to talk to her about something." Sharon replied, she was hoping all would go well she wanted this to work. Ryan gave Sharon his sister's number, and walked back to the leather couch confused. Sharon dialed the number the phone rang, and a female voice answered, "Hello." "Hello, this is Sharon Brown, producer of Celtic Thunder and friends with Ryan Kelly, is this his sister." "Yes" Lauren and Jen's mom replied. She had heard of Celtic Thunder, for her daughters had mentioned it, "May I ask why you are calling and how you know my brother?" "Oh course." Sharon replied, "I would like to talk about your daughter, and Ryan is in the singing group of Celtic Thunder." "Oh, okay, what do you want to talk about, did one of them do something." "Well yes." Sharon said frankly. Ryan's sister immediately got worried, "Don't be worried, it is a good thing." A sigh of relief was heard from the other end, "You see another of my singers, Keith, has seen your daughter dance, and he wants her to perform in our tour. Would you be willing to allow this." "Keith Harkin?" Lauren's mom asked. "Why yes, you know him?" "Yes, he and Ryan and a some men named Paul and Damian and a few others came to our house this summer. They gave Lauren her guitar back. Her and Damian, I think are going out." "Really," Sharon said, She did not realize that Damian had a girlfriend, "Would you be willing to let her perform?" "I would, as long as their is school, but which one?" "Their will be school, seeing as Damian is only seventeen." But as for the second question Sharon was stumped, "How many daughters do you have." "Two." "What are their names." "Lauren and Jennifer." Sharon thought for a moment, "It must be Lauren." "I think Lauren would like that, thanks for calling." "No problem. Good bye." Sharon hung up the phone, Damian would just have to agree not to be thinking of Lauren the whole time. She usually did not allow this kind of thing, with out even seeing the dance, but Keith seemed really sincere. When Sharon came back Paul was just finishing recording, "Paul your turn" Phil announced. Paul was about to walk into the booth, "Paul before you go, I have some news." The men gathered around, "What kind of news?" Damian asked. "Good news." Sharon replied, Keith smiled. "We are going to have a new addition to the Celtic Thunder family." The guys looked at each other in shock, "Who?" Paul asked. "Well before I say who, I need to ask a question. Keith do you know if their was a video of that performance?" "Yeah. I think Damo has one." Keith replied. Damian handed Sharon his camera without any questions he wanted to know who this addition was. To keep the surprise Sharon turned the volume off of the camera, and searched till she found a video of a brunette with wavy brown hair and brown eyes in a pose with her hands gracefully crossed in front of her chest. She pressed play. After watching the video her mouth dropped. Sharon could not believe the talent of this girl. Sharon turned off the camera and handed it back to Damian, "Well I can for sure say, unless she disagrees even though her mom has, that Ryan's niece Lauren will be dancing while Keith sings Lauren and I." The mouth's of Paul Ryan and Damian dropped they had all seen the dance. "Sharon, who gave ye this idea, and if she joins make sure Damian remembers why he is on tour." "Keith gave me the idea, and I think we can trust Damian with his girlfriend on tour." Damian smiled, "When it comes to work we are both serious but still have fun, I will not forget guys, you can trust me." Keith was smiling. "Can we know what you were watching?" Paul asked. "I was watching a video of her dancing to the song. Immediately everyone dog piled Damian, they all wanted to see the video even the ones that had already seen it. George finally got hold of the camera and held it so everyone could. The video ended and everyone agreed this was going to be awesome. Ryan was beaming with pride for his niece. Damian could still not believe that he would be joined by his girlfriend on tour. Keith was happy that Lauren would be dancing to her favorite song, he was also happy because she told him why the song meant so much to her, it had new meaning for him. Paul could not believe that he could have a partner in crime. George could not believe his mind, he had never seen dancing like it before. Phil was wondering how on earth did she come up with that, with know one teaching it to her. All the guys were happy.
Lauren and Jen arrived home. Greeted by their loving dog Racetrack, and their mom and dad. "Lauren." Her mom started, "Guess what?" "What?" Lauren asked. "What do you think about going on tour with Celtic Thunder?" "What?!?!" Lauren half screamed half asked. "You heard me, what do ya think?" The excitement of being home fled Lauren's face, "I, um, I..."

"Wow." "Oh my goodness, Lauren you have to do it." Jennifer urged. "Okay. Wow." Lauren was in complete shock, she did not realized that little dance she did would end up in the show. "Can I call Damian and tell him." "Sure. But what about the time difference." Her mom said. "I don't give a hoot about the time difference." Lauren replied. "I am pretty sure he doesn't either." Jennifer laughed. This was true, Lauren had woken up at three in the morning because Damian had called. Lauren dialed Damian's number, the line was busy.
"The line is busy." Damian moaned. He was trying to call Lauren. Sharon had given them a break, besides Damian needed to see if Lauren and her sister had landed safe. All the guys laughed. "Try again, D." Keith said. Damian redialed the number, it rang, and was busy again. Damian moaned. Paul bursted out laughing. "Here let me try." He took Damian's phone from him. Damian looked heartbroken that his phone had been taken. Paul dialed Lauren's number, it once again was busy.
"The stupid line is busy." Lauren commented for the third time. She was now in her room sitting on her bed. Jen was on the floor in front of the bed. "Wait a while." "Okay." Lauren replied, so she waited. Finally her phone rang, it was Damian. "Finally." Both she and he said at the same time.
Damian finally managed to get the phone back from Paul. He dialed Lauren's number yet again, it rang, "Finally" He said at the same time as Lauren. Laughter was coming from both ends. "You go first." Damian said. "Okay, well I have some really good news." "So do I." "I am going to see you on tour." "I knew that." Damian said jokingly. "No, I mean I will be touring with you, my mom told me as soon as I got home, she said I was going to be dancing." Damian's mouth dropped, "That is what I was going to tell you. Sharon wants you to dance to Lauren and I while Keith sings it." "I am so excited." Lauren squeeled. "So am I." Damian squeaked his voice had cracked.
Lauren heard laughter from the other end. She suspected Damian was with the guys and they heard his voice crack. She was laughing as well. "Can't wait to see you in about two months." Damian said. he needed to go. "Same here." Lauren said, "Love you." "Love you to." They both hung up. "So." Jennifer started, "Will I be able to see any concerts?" "I assume so, but I will ask Sharon." Lauren replied smiling, she knew what was going through her sister's head.
"So do you think we will get to see her sister?" Keith asked after Damian had hung up. Everyone started laughing, "I knew it!" Paul yelled. "You like Jennifer!" Ryan yelled. "I do not!" Keith defended. "I am just being kind." George was laughing, "Right Keith." Keith got really red, "It's okay mate. At least now they can't just make fun of me." Damian attempted at comforting. "Shut it Damian." Keith said, shoving Damian off of him. The guys were laughing having great craic. "Alright guys time to get back to work." Sharon said acting as the referee. The guys got back to work.
A month had passed it was not a week before Jen's birthday. And Jen was home for the week, something very rare in law school. "So you excited?" Lauren asked. "About what?" Jen asked. "Your birthday what else." Lauren replied. "Oh yeah, but I bet it does not compare with, how excited you are about the tour." "True." Lauren replied.
"Keith you almost ready!" Ryan yelled. The guys were heading over to America early for a few reasons, one was Ryan wanted to see Jennifer on her birthday. Damian wanted to see Lauren. And Keith would not admit it but he wanted to see Jennifer plus he had a surprise. Paul Just wanted to go, and well George decided to go to. Since they were all going Sharon said she would be their about a week after them, so they could get some rehearsals with Lauren in. "Yeah. Wait a sec." Keith was putting the finishing touches on his song. He grabbed his song book and duffel bag and headed out the door. He forgot his McPherson. He ran back up the stairs and grabbed the case that was covered in bumper stickers. "Finally." Damian laughed. "Hush." Keith rolled his eyes. "Alright here is the seating arrangements." Ryan said. "Seating arrangements?!" Paul was appalled. "Yeah, the camping trip and the trip to the rehearsals that day were too much." Ryan said. "In the back, Keith, George then Damian. Paul has shotgun. In the car." Every one got in the car. They got to the airport. Got on the plain. They were on their way to the loan star state. The plane finally landed. "We are hear." Damian said. The guys got the rental car and headed to the hotel that was only fifteen minutes from Lauren and Jennifer's house. "So when do we tell them we are here?" Paul asked. "Um, I don't know." Ryan replied. "Well um don't say that I am here." Keith said. "Why?" George asked. Damian got it. "Jennifer's birthday is in a week." "How cute he wants to be a surprise." Paul said. Keith nudged him in the ribs. "Will do" Ryan said. "Damo you want to go visit." "Yes!" Damian yelled. The two of them got into the car, and passed one of the farms that Jennifer and Lauren's house was nestled between they took a left then a right onto Lauren's street.
The doorbell rang. "I'll get it." Jen yelled. She opened the door. "AAHH!!!" she screamed. Lauren came running, "What is it?" She said out of breath, "I heard you scream." Lauren then noticed Damian who was peaking his head out from behind Ryan, "AAHH Damian!" She almost ran over Ryan running to Damian. "Hello." Ryan said. "Can we come in" "Of course." Jen replied. Lauren and Jen's mom and dad came and greeted the two guys. "So where is everyone else?" Jennifer asked. "At the hotel." Ryan replied. Damian nudged him. "What was that for, I did not say anything bad." Damian rolled his eyes. "So who all came?" Jen asked. "Oh, Goerge, you'll love him, and Paul and Sharon is coming in about a week to work with us to get some early rehearsals in." "I see." Jen said, she completely missed the fact that Ryan said nothing about Keith. "What are you doing here?" Ryan's sister asked. "I heard that it was someone's birthday." "Well you heard right." Lauren chimed in. "Happy Birthday." Damian and Ryan told Jennifer. Damian and Ryan mentioned they should go get George and Paul from the hotel since they only had one car. They were not gone long. They came back. George greeted Lauren with a hug. He then said hello to Jennifer, and gave her a famous bear hug. "I can see why you like his hugs." Jennifer mentioned to Lauren. Everyone just laughed. Everyone was watching movies the rest of the night. Lauren had to go to school the rest of the week. Damian brought her lunch every day. And on Friday, she brought Damian to school as a guest.
Tomorrow was Jennifer's birthday, Keith was sad and happy. He was missing everyone the guys would come back and tell him everything. But at the same time he knew that the surprise would be completely worth it.
Saturday came all to soon. All the guys except went over early to have pancakes made by Lauren and Jennifer's mom. Damian pulled Lauren into the hallway leading to her and Jen's room. "Keith is coming around twelve." "Keith is..." Lauren did not get finished with her sentence, because Damian had put his hand over her mouth. "Yes, keep it a surprise." "Okay." Lauren said. They two started to giggle and went to the kitchen. As soon as Damian entered. The four guys and Lauren's dad who had a very good voice started to sing and harmonize beautifuly, "Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday dear Jennifer Happy Birthday to you." "Aww. Thanks guys." Jen said, she was wishing she had heard a voice that was more folk, but hey she would do that when she blew out her candles. Lauren and Jen got ready for the day. An episode of planet mechanics was it, happened to be the one where Keith was a guest so the guys decided to watch. Lauren and Jen came out. Lauren was wearing a pink long sleeve and bright blue nike shorts with lime green lines on them. Jennifer was wearing red shorts and nave blue t-shirt that had the words law student written on them. "Paul move." "Why?" Paul asked Lauren. Paul then realized he was sharing the big brown leather chair with Damian he got up and sat on the ground and started playing with racetrack the girls dog. Lauren plopped down next to Damian. "Lauren." Damian whispered. "I need your help." "With what?" Lauren asked. "Come on." Damian said getting up.
Keith couldn't believe Sharon said no playing the McPherson till rehearsals it was his guitar. She thinks he would break it. She was wrong according to Keith. He was walking around the park in Lauren's neighbor hood. He would glance at his watch every few minutes.
Damian took Lauren's hand pulled her out of the chair and guided her to her room. "Keith needs your guitar." "What I thought he had his own." "Sharon took it for safekeeping." Lauren laughed. "I will get my other one." Lauren went into her closet and got out a black case with the word dream written on it in lime green paint. "Hear ya go." "What am I supposed to do with it." "Well I don't know, you told me you needed it for Keith." Damian thought for minute, "Follow me."

well i definitely said i would update friday... but football and halloween saturday stopped me... so i am updating now... hope ya like it
Damian grabbed Lauren by the hand, she was holding her guitar. Damian led her down the hallway, and through the living room they passed everyone giggling. "Where are you two going?" Jennifer and Paul asked simultaniously. Lauren and Damian looked at each other. Then Damian in a really exaggerated voice replied, "We are just going out side to play some guitar." He nudged and winked at Lauren, who then got it. She added in the same voice Damian was using, "Yeah, we are going to play guitar." Damian ran at the door with Lauren following. Everyone in the room followed the couple with their eyes until they were out of sight. "What was that all about?" Ryan asked. Everyone just shook their heads in confusion.
Lauren and Damian ran passed the iron gate, rounded the corner walked past the pool, rounded another corner and walked into the side yard. "Oh be careful where you step." Lauren said. "Why?" Damian said, stepping on something mushy. "Because this is where our dog poops." "EWW!!!" Damian said picking his foot up in disgust, he gave Lauren a little nudge. Lauren was laughing. Damian wiped the dog poo off his foot on the concrete slab that held the air conditioner. They went through the wooden gate and ended up in Lauren's front yard. "Where is Keith?" Damian asked. "How am I supposed to know, you saw him last." "No I didn't" "Well you have seen him way more recently before me." "True." "Boo." Damian and Lauren screamed and jumped. "Happy Halloween." Keith said. "Dude it's January." Damian frankly told him. Keith paused, he was trying to think of a witty comeback, "Happy January uh... 24." "Good one Keith." Damian joked. "Hi Keith." Lauren hugged him. "Hey Lauren." He hugged back. "So how is this gonna happen?" he asked. "Well for starters here is the guitar you needed." Lauren said handing Keith her precious acoustic Yamaha that has been in more sticky situations than Paul Byrom on tour of Celtic Thunder. "Thanks Lauren." "No Problem, so what are you gonna do?" "I wrote Jen a birthday song." "That is so sweet." Lauren said, her voice getting high. "You really do like her." Damian nudged. "Pht... NO." Damian and Lauren laughed, "Yes you do." Keith desperately wanted to change the subject, "So how are we gonna make this happen?" "I know." Damian said, "So Lauren and I," He paused and laughed, Keith nudged him. "Okay anyways Lauren and I will go back inside, and they will have to notice she doesn't have her guitar." Lauren cut him off, "And what if they don't notice." "Their going to notice." "Did you even see the people sitting in my living room." Damian laughed, "Oh yeah, well in that case improvise." "Oh good idea." Lauren said. "And moving on." Keith motioned with his hand. "Oh right, back on topic, once they notice or we help them to notice, one of us will say, that we must have forgotten it, at that point in time Lauren will sneak over to the and unlock, she will then give you the thumbs up through the big window." He was really getting into the talk, he pointed to the large window adjacent to the door. Damian was very energized, he continued with his crazy plan, "Then the other one of will say, very loudly, " he air quoted the words very loudly. "Well then we should go get. That is when the door will seem to magically open cause you opened it and bam, you will start to play your song." "THAT'S" Keith started acting really excited, "The stupidest thing I have ever heard." Damian immediately got sad, and he looked at Lauren. Lauren was nodding in agreement with Keith, "Well I don't suppose you to have any better idea's" "Nope." Lauren and Keith said, many times both scratching their heads. "Then we are going with my plan." Damian said. "Alright." Lauren said, as they headed back to the gate. "Oh Keith stand on the porch, but make sure no one sees you okay." "Okay." Keith went to the porch and Lauren and Damian walked back through the gate. "You know I have a feeling this is not going to work." "Oh hush." Damian said. Lauren and Damian walked back into the house, giggling. "Hey guys." Ryan said glued to the television. Lauren whispered, "They haven't noticed." "Their big kids give them a little bit to notice on their own." Damian whispered. Paul took his eyes off the television, "What are you to whisp," He stopped and noticed Lauren's guitar was missing, "Where's your guitar Lauren?" Damian laughed as Lauren headed to the door to unlock it, "See, I told ya they would notice." "Oh hush." Lauren said walking to the window, and slyly giving Keith the thumbs up. "You know Lauren." Damian started. Then he and Lauren practically yelled, "WE BETTER GO AND GET IT!" Just then the door magically opened, with Keith's help. Standing in the doorway, Keith starting strumming the guitars, it was a pretty upbeat. "Why don't you all come let me in." He laughed, as he started to sing, "J-E-N-N-I-F-E-R J-E-N-N-I-F-E-R I have traveled so very far By walking, plane, and car. So I can personally say, Happy Birthday. Seein' you here and now, Another year older, holy cow. I want to personally say, Happy Birthday. Now that your twenty- two, What are you gonna do? I hope this was the best way, Someone has told you," he spoke the last two words, "Happy Birthday." Jennifer was speechless. Keith walked into the house. Everyone was applauding. Finally Jennifer found words, "Thanks Keith." She hugged him. "Oh I have one more gift for you." "What is it?" She asked. Keith flipped the guitar to his back, he took her hand, "Jennifer..." he started.
I hoped y'all liked it. sorry for the longishnesh... no harm mean to any of the guys. the song i actually wrote for my sis's b-day except she is not turning twenty two... it just made a better rhyme... PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE tell me what ya think. i am BEGGING. love ya

this is what lauren's surf board looks like it is described in vacation but i thought you would want to see it. also i know i got the rosy surfboard logo wrong so don't get mad at me, oh i also drew it during class... hence the badness of it. Now, Damian's board is never described, but this is what it would look like... it is the same make as Lauren's (the make is in vacation.) i drew this in class to... but three of my grades best artists said it was really cool. and that the shading was perfect. i hope y'all like... sorry for the bad quality yet again

"Would you do me the honor, of being my girlfriend?" Keith asked. Without hesitation Jennifer replied, "Yes." "I thought you did not like him." Lauren said nudging her sister. "Shut it Lauren." Jennifer said, smiling from ear to ear. "I hope this was a good birthday present." Keith said. "Are you kidding it was the greatest." "What!?!" Laure said astonished. "Yeah, Lauren the greatest." Jen said, the two were arguing but laughing. Something everyone was used to. "But my wish came true before I blew out my candles." "HA!" Damian said, "SHE DID LIKE YOU." "Shut it Damo." Keith warned. Lauren and Damian walked away from the happy couple and sat on the large brown chair, giggling. Racetrack seemed very interested in Keith. Keith took the guitar of his back and set on the bench in the entry way. He picked up the dog, "And who do we have here." He said while Racetrack licked his face. Walking over to the couch that was in front of a wall of windows and sitting down Jennifer told him, "That is Racetrack." "He is so cute." "Oh Lauren, Tulsa, agreed to let me have a tutor, so I can chaperon you on tour." "Wait what?" George, Ryan, Keith, Damian, and Paul asked. "Don't worry." Lauren reassured, "My mom talked with Sharon, my mom said, I needed a chaperon, and told Sharon that. Sharon said that their were plenty of adults, but understood, that my mom wanted someone who knew me a bit better. No offense Ryan. It was going to be my mom, unless Jen could get a tutor from law school. That makes me so happy." "Me to." Keith added. "Hey Keith remember keep your mind on your job." The guys laughed, "Shut it." Keith warned Damian. Lauren looked at Damian with a confused look on her face, "Inside joke, about when they found out you were going on tour with us." "Oh." Ryan's sister came in, "Alright guys time to go to lunch." Their were to many of them to fit in one car. So Lauren and Damian went in her ninety four toyota camery not like her red jeep but just as awesome. Jen, there mom, dad, Ryan, Keith, and George went in Jen's dad's ford expedition, that was a silent car ride, because Lauren's dad was an intimidating man. Now the ride in Lauren's car was filled with laughter as she made fun of some songs Damian had sung. This made him laugh. Finally the two cars arrived at the restaurant. "Hey everyone." Shock came across the nine faces.
hoped y'all liked it. thanks for reading

For standing their was a blond woman. And a gray haired man. They happened to be the two producers of the show Celtic Thunder. As soon as the shock went away. Hugs were exchanged all around. "So you must be Lauren." Sharon looked at Lauren. "Yes." "I can see why Damian likes you." Everyone laughed. "Let's go eat." Phil said. The group of eleven were seated, The adults, Phil, Sharon, Mr. and Mrs. Pfieffer were at one table, and the kids, Paul, Ryan, Keith, Jen, Damian, and Lauren were at another. They all ordered. Keith noticed a sign that was mirror that advertised for Guinness he got up and asked Jen to take a picture of him with the sign. Everyone laughed yet again. Sharon, Phil, and Lauren and Jen's were talking about plans for the tour. They called Jen over and everything was set. The food came, "Paul, Keith please behave your selves we are guests here, and in this country," Ryan started. Paul and Keith behaved themselves. "Happy birthday Jennifer. As we discussed, it is time for rehearsals. I will meet you all at your house, so we can get ready." They all went to the house. Lauren got her stuff ready, and they headed to the theater they booked for rehearsal. "Welcome to the first Celtic Thunder rehearsal." Phil said, "Hope you are ready to laugh. Lauren was. "Keith why don't you show Lauren, where all the steps and things are, so she can adjust her dance." Keith showed Lauren all the marks. The guys started warming up, and Lauren started to stretch she did not want to get hurt. When they were finished. Warming up, Lauren started to adjust her routine. The guys were joking off stage. "I think I am done." Lauren's outgoing personality immediately went into hiding, this was almost the real deal. She would be performing in front of Sharon. Damian noticed this. "Hey just think you are performing for me." He whispered. Lauren nodded. The music started, and slowly and gracefully she walked onto the stage, the harmonious words started to flow out of Keith's mouth, and she started to dance. The song finished with Lauren standing face to face with Keith who was surprised by this, but the realized she interpreted the song who he originally wrote it. Taking her hand Keith guided Lauren off stage. Coming back on to get the criticism Keith whispered, "Don't worry they will be nice, you were amazing." Sharon started with a serious face, "Well," Phil cut in, "You were completely AMAZING!!!" Lauren got bashful, "Thanks." "Just keep practicing." Sharon said. "Oh before you go out to practice let me get measurements for your costume." Lauren went into the lobby and practiced the dance till rehearsals ended. She was sweaty, but when Damian came up after, he gave her a big hug and kiss. Leaving they took Lauren home and went to the hotel. It was a fun day. When Lauren got home, she taught her ever so anxious sister the revised dance. "This was the best birthday ever." Jen said. A few weeks went by, and the full rehearsals started. Lauren and Jen had to leave. Packed and ready to leave, they met the guys at their hotel and headed up north. They saw the busses, and stuff. They checked into the hotel, and went to the theater that was allowing them to practice their. Sharon had good news, the boys suits had arrived, and Lauren's costume arrived. Damian had a navy blue one, that made Lauren melt when he wore it. But everyone was intrigued by Lauren's costume, it was an emerald green dress, that had faint horizontal green stripes which were part of the material. It had a strip of material under the bosom with little pearls on it. Their was was see through fabric which had green sparkles on it. It was not strapless though it could easily be. All the guys asked Lauren to put it on, after a lot of begging and a puppy dog look from Damian. Lauren went to put the dress on. Lauren came out looking beautiful, Damian almost fell down, well he did he dropped to his knees. Every one laughed. "Lauren, think we can rehearse in the dress?" Sharon asked walking up. "Of course." Lauren went back into the bathroom to put on her black spankies, and her lyrical shoes. Coming back out she got into her position. The music started, and so did Lauren, Keith started to sing, and Lauren began to dance. The song ended, and Lauren and Keith were face to face. "Brilliant." Phil stated, "I will never get tired of that." Lauren walked up to Jen who was seeing if for the first time, "How did I do?" "Amazing, like always." "Thanks sis." The rehearsals continued. In a few weeks, the tour started, Lauren got really nervous. The first night, when Lauren started to dance, she could see some confused looks, but when the song finished, their was a standing ovation. After the concert and meet and greets, Damian got onto his computer, he lurked in the thunder pub for a while. Almost all the comments were about Keith, Lauren, and Lauren and I. They were all good comments. He logged off and went to bed. The next morning, they had stopped, and Damian and Lauren decided to watch a soccer game on the bus seeing as it was a sunday.. The concert came and went, a reception to Lauren and I very similar to the one the previous night. Lauren, Damian, and Jen woke up early for school the next day. The concerts came and went. It was now two month in one more to go. Lauren walked on stage and started to dance, while Keith sang her favorite song Lauren and I. But unlike the other nights, this one went differently. Lauren was doing her third grand jeté in the dance, a jump she was most comfortable with, when Keith had to improvise some movements. Lauren did not yell or show pain, but she knew this was not good.
