Erik, real name Landon, leaned back in his chair and rubbed his eyes. At 10:00 P.M., his plane leaving at 3 A.M. (It had been a cheap flight from New York City); this was going to be a LONG five hours. He tipped back in his desk chair, folding his lanky arms behind his black-curled head. He stared at the ceiling and counted the dancers on his Phantom poster. Thirty-seven just like always, the one that he thought might look like Carassa in the center. God was he nervous. After almost a full year of being a member of the CRS Universe, he was finally going to meet everyone. Well, besides Alex. He saw Alex every day, they lived in the same apartment building. He even knew Alex's real name- Victor. But still, meeting Spira! Oh, not so good. Spira annoyed him as her job but on the whole she was lovable. But meeting Carassa... he got the shakes just thinking about it. In roleplays, Carassa had stolen the heart of Erik, a musical, lonely genius- and Landon's too in the process. He couldn't stop thinking about what he expected, what she would expect... What if Alex was wrong? What if Carassa DIDN'T love him? It was only a matter of time before he found out, and that made it impossible to sleep.
Alex/Victor wasn't nervous at all. An hour after signing off he was half-asleep, waiting for his big sister to come in and yank the blanket off him and tell him it's time to go. At least, if he was nervous, he was never going to admit it. He wasn't as emotional as his Phantom character, Alex was, but it wasn't like he was an iceberg or anything. Inside, the thought of meeting his best girl from the CRS Universe Spira, made him very nervous. But outside? Nahh, it was just fine. He thought of streaking around the hotel grounds with her, leaving mischief and destruction in their wake. Just like old times! And maybe Carassa could loosen up Landon. Erik. Whomever. His one grievance about his best friend was that Landon/Erik (Lerik? Lyric? Hey, that was pretty good, Lerik/Lyric, haha) was an over analyzer. Right now, he bet, 'Lerik' was nearly bouncing off the walls with nervousness. Poor sap.
Spira wasn’t asleep, nor was she bouncing off the walls. She was bouncing up and down on her bed, happily shrieking. "They're going, they're going, I get to meet them, La-la-La-la-La-LA!" Her father pounded on her door. "Rachel, go to sleep or I'm not taking you to the airport tomorrow!" Spira stuck her tongue out at the door, but quieted down all the same. She didn't go to sleep, though, in two more hours her parents would go to sleep and she could hightail it out her window and bounce around in the moonlight like a TRUE CRS girl. For now, she huddled up with her red pillow and black blanket and let her mind race. She was going to get to meet Carassa, her best friend! And annoy the crap out of Erik, for real now! And... she was going to meet Alex. The thought made her blush and giggle. This was so going to be the best week of her life. She could feel it.
Carassa, real name MC, well rather her real name was Mary but she liked to be called MC, wasn't sure what she was feeling. It was a bazillion things at once- Excitement, at going to the convention; Elation, at knowing her friends were going to be there, particularly Spira; Boredom, at that she was going to be in a car for about six more hours, yuck; and finally Extreme Nervousness, at the fact that she was going to meet Erik. She turned to her older sister Nina, next to her in the front seat. "Hey Nina?" she asked.
"Hmm?" Nina answered, barely taking her eyes off the highway.
"Did we remember to pack my fishnets with the red bows? And my black miniskirt? And my red halter top? And my bathing suit?" MC was panickedly going through her list of sexy clothes.
"Yes. You also have your red dress, your cape, your black corset and those atrocious red strap sandals I got you." Nina reassured her, knowing her sister's terror just by the tone of her voice.
"Oh thank god"
"You nervous"
"Totally. I mean, what if Erik thinks I'm ugly? What if he's shorter than me? What if he's gross"
Nina was puzzled. "Isn't the Phantom supposed to be ugly? Like on the one side"
MC looked at her exasparatedly. "I didn't say ugly, I said gross. Like bogeys hanging out of his nose or something"
Nina laughed. "You love him on the 'Net, right?" she reasoned.
"Yeah, I guess. But, what if I can't get past the bogeys?" MC said nervously.
"Well, he's from NYC, right"
"Yeah, so?"
"Focus on the accent." Nina said, shrugging like it was the simplest thing in the world.
MC paused, saw the sense in it, andsmiled. "Thanks, Nina"
"No problem, Mini-Short."
