Chapter 1

Sitting back against the wall she flicked thru the new rock magazine that had just been put out on the racks just in time for the shop opening. Half an hour till opening time what was she going to do she was supposed to be here for some opening yh ok it was just like every other day. Nothing exciting Micky did that all the time when he wanted his workers in early. grabbing her scrunchy from the counter she quickly tied her hair back picking up the bit tinsel she saved from getting chucked out she tired it round her bobble and went to open the doors ready for Micky arriving. going up stairs she quickly changed into her workers clothing and started back out the door.
"Star seeing as its nearly Christmas do you girls want to dress up this year?" we we have some guests coming to the store for a signing and we want to make it look friendly and welcoming and let them see that our workers are happy and full of life and are ready to let their hair down at this time of year and their boss is not completely mean and like scrooge"
Looking at him confused she tried to understand why on earth he was acting the way he did he was never this cheery at this time of year mind you he never was. Sitting back down Star put her book down and tried to wonder what had gotten into him.
"Ok, so who is the guest?" she asked fidgeting with the bit of hair that had fallen down by her her eyes.
"Well they, the band is actually from round here and their promoting their new album" he smiled "But i dont need everyone here and as i know you know your music i want you to be one out of the two to be here" he told her. "I need you to act like the bands PA kind of thing while they are with us"

Hating the fact she had to play maid when it wasn't her job she sat with her back against the wall and folded her arms across her chest.
"Dont look at me like that look at the end of the day you work for me, so please try n look lively now you can have the rest of the day off to go find something for next week ok" He answered back to his normal self the bitchiness in his voice came back n the smile came back on her face.
"There we go back again" She smiled thank you so much" Star giggled.
"I cant win with you can i?" he asked shaking his head walking away. Shaking his head he walked to the other side of the shop to where Tazmin was to tell her the same thing this time with a little less enthusiasm.
Laughing at his reaction Star went to sit back down when the shop door opened turning towards the door she noticed the a man walk in he looked so familiar he stood about 5foot10 and he had the prettiest blue eyes she had ever seen trying hard not to stare she quickly turned away and went back to reading her magazine.

Walking round the shop the customer had a quick flip thru some of the music then stood looking round the shop to see if he could see anyone. Watching him carefully from behind the magazine star eventually stood up and walked over to him.
"Can i help you with anything today?" Standing only a couple of feet away she could smell him it made her go week. Star lived with men so you would think she would be used to it by now. When he turned to look at her she got eve worse keeping herself together she repeated her question and waited nervously.
After a few seconds looking her up and down the man took another quick look round then turned his attention to Star again.
"Have you got Bon Jovi's new album?" he asked gently looking at her his voice was very quiet almost a whisper.
"See you got good taste in music" she smiled trying to keep herself calm as she figured out who this stranger could be, she knew his face from some where it was working it out that was the problem.
"If you would like to follow me sir i will go and have a look for you". Leading the way back over to the counter sitting down she flicked thru the computer.
"Right we have one copy in but that we should be getting more in we have the band coming in to do a signing soon not sure what day it is but i can check if you like" Star smiled.

"They are coming in Tomorrow night" The man answered really confident placing the money on the counter pushing it towards her.
"How did .... "taking the money she looked up at him starting to get annoyed with herself it wasn't till he turned away n started to sing to himself as he walked out the shop after getting the album he had just brought that it clicked on, but how, why would he?" just before she could stop herself she let the words fall out before she could stop herself.
"Jon Bongiovi" As soon as he heard his name mentioned he spun round, falling off her seat Star slipped n banged her head off the wall behind her. "God damn it" she cursed trying to get up.
"Here let me help you" His voice called down to her quietly as he he reached his hand down to help her up.
"Dont tell me you didnt know who i was?" he smiled. Going a really deep shade of red Star nodded n quickly sta back down feeling like an idiot. trying hard not to laugh Jon asked if she was ok then carried on out the door.

Watching out the window she couldnt believe that Jon Bongiovi had been in the store and bought his own album what the hell was all that about creeping out the door she stuck her head round the corner hoping to god she wouldnt get cought and sure enough there he was Jon was knelt down a little way down the path talking to a little girl who was stood with her mother she was in a little bon jovi top and stood clinging to jon's bandana that he had obviously just giving her that he always used to ware. Smiling she quickly backed into the shop and closed the door behind her.
Looking back Jon knew all to well he had been watched standing up he smiled a little then turned away and continued too walk along with the little girl and her mom. She had been in a competition and won sadly the little girl was dying and Jon couldnt help but feel sorry for her. So to make her day really special he was determined to spoil her.

At only 6 year old the young girl had been diagnosed with cancer. her body had been too week to defend its self and her mother couldnt bare seeing her little girl in any more pain hoping that the chemotherapy would help but it wasnt good enough.
