Just to Be Close to You-Backstreet Boys Visuals

My Heart Stays With You

Chapter 1

Samantha sat in her seat on the airplane quietly cursing to herself and doing her best to keep from clenching her teeth together. Her plane to Orlando was already an hour behind schedule due to a rain problem in San Francisco and now the captain had just announced that due to traffic on the landing strip, they would be circling the airport for another 30 to 45 minutes! 'GADS!' she said to herself 'This is seriously cutting into what little time I have with Howie this weekend! He is probably sitting down there in the airport wondering what in the world happened to me!'

Little did she know, Howie was fighting a battle of his own in the waiting room of the airport. Knowing how easily he could be spotted in his home town airport, Howie had tried wearing a disguise of sorts. He was wearing glasses instead of contacts and he had tucked his curls up inside of his baseball cap. He had on Levis and a denim shirt. He sat in a chair and pretended to read a newspaper. His ruse had worked for about 1/2 an hour then someone spotted him and chaos ensued! He signed autographs and took a few pictures but he knew he had to do something or Samantha would never be able to get near him when she arrived! He quickly dashed into the nearest restroom and phoned his brother John from his cell phone.

"Hi John! Listen what are you doing right now?...Good I need your help! I am at the airport to pickup Samantha but her plane has been delayed and I am trapped in the restroom by a group of fans....No the disguise didn't work! I have signed autographs and had my picture taken but the crowd seems to be growing! I don't want to scare Samantha, but I don't want to disappoint anyone who is waiting, so can you please come down here and pick her up while I try to finish with the crowd?...Great! Her plane is arriving at C23. I am in the restroom right by the gate but I will probably be in the middle of a mob by the time you get here. If I am or if you don't see me, please just pickup Samantha and take her to your car. I will call you and arrange to pick her up. You remember what she looks like from the picture right? Thanks John!"

Howie made his way back out of the restroom and resumed signing autographs. He heard an announcement saying Samantha's flight was going to be delayed another 30 minutes and silently prayed the crowd would thin out before she arrived. He knew sooner or later he was going to have to introduce her to the fans but he had hoped it would be later and not in the middle of a mob scene like he was in at the present.

Howie was still surrounded by about 50 people when John arrived. John caught his eye and waved to him to show he had arrived. Howie gave him one of his trademark *winks* and went back to answering a question from a girl who looked about 14. Howie's heart skipped a beat when he heard the announcement that Samantha's plane was finally landing. He excused himself and went over to John.

"I am going to head out to my car." he whispered to his brother. "Get Samantha and take her to my house. I will meet you there. Thanks again bro!" Howie said slapping his brother on the back.

Samantha was one of the first people off the plane. She searched for Howie and felt her stomach knot up when she did not see him. Just as she was about to whip out her cell phone and call him, a man a little taller than Howie with somewhat similar features, approached her.
