Shut Up - Scene 1
---------------------

Let me start by introducing myself. My name is Jason. I am 21 years old
and I just recently started working for my own ---- records. The company
is owned by a close friends father. I got the job as talent coordinations
through that close friend. My job is to handle all interaction with our
artists. I see them on location or in my LA office.

I am a little over six foot tall. I have been working out in the gym for
the past few years with my own personal trainer so my physique has really
become one to be proud of. I have well defined pecks and a very well
defined six pack. I've worked hard for them both. I have short spiked
brown hair with blonde highlights going through them. I don't have a
particular form of dress but I usually go 'preppy'. Something like kakis
and maybe and Abercrombie shirt of some kind.

The record label has a lot of newly acquired talent do to the money that
we offer and that talent that we wish to possess. We recently acquired
Britney Spears, Nick Lachey, 98 degrees, Jessica Simpson, and many
unsigned yet to be signed bands. We were set to have a meeting with all
of our newly acquired talent but britney and a few other people had to
pull out do to recently scheduled tour conflicts.

I just decided that I would take a semi-vacation and go around visiting
the members of the corresponding bands. I was scheduled to meet Jessica
Simpson that morning. Witch I had. She was a very sweet person to be
around. Here and Nick had only been married a few years so that's what
she had to talk about. Their life and there TV show. Nick wanted to meet
with the band to talk about were they were going and were he himself
would be going over the next few years or so with the label. We were
meeting at 2 pm at the mariot hotel. Just an hour or so drive from were I
had met Jessica. We were in Florida because Jessica was on tour. The guys
were doing a little road trip following her. From what Jessica had told
me, her and nick were doing a little break so he could spend time with
his friends. He agreed but said that he and the boys were just going to
follow her. Kind of like the old days before they all made it big.

Anyway, I walked into the hotel and caught them all right away goofing
off at the table. I took a seat and set down my bag. I was greeted by all
them with a kind hello. I got right down to business,

"As we all know, the whole point of having both 98 degrees AND Nick
Lachey was to double on the profit. the group has been on hiatus for a
short while so I figured that with a little work we could bring them all
back"

Justin chimed in (the business man he is) "What do you mean by a little
work?" The guys all nodded along with him.

"Well, the group hasn't put out anything new in almost three years.
People probably forgot that you existed. Now, they all know Nick because
was being pushed by Columbia. I don't think that is the type of push Nick
needs."

Nick piped in "You lost me.."

"Let me sum it up.. we want to do less push to your CD and put some more
time into a 98 degrees project. If we could bring in money with that.
Than we could slowly bring in money with yours"

Jeff "Are you sure your not just giving us all this run around bull
shit?"

"No.. No.. No.. I'm an honest person. I don't think this Nick thing is
making much money and I think that you feel the same way I do. I think if
we can make money off of a 98 degrees project and then slowly bring in
money on solo projects then why not push it... right?!?"

"I think he's pretty honest guys.. I mean the last people we dealt with
did give us total bullshit with left us were we are today.. NOWHERE!"
Drew finally spoke up.

"Here's what I say we do. I'm hoping to be in town for a few more days.
I'll give you my card and you guys can contact me and just tell me what
you think."

The guys all agreed on the proposal that I had given them. I handed them
my card and then left after saying goodbye to them. I went upstairs to my
room. I had reserved it on the way over. I had a pretty nice room. A
small bathroom and two beds. It was all I could afford. I hadn't moved
far enough up in the business to actually be making good money yet. The
label did provide for what I had though.

I took a quick shower and then went through my closet trying to pick
something out to where. I was going to have myself a night on the town. I
decided on some American eagle kaki colored shorts. They looked like they
had been cut off because there were strings hanging down from them. But
they weren't. I decided on a light blue shirt that had lines going left
to right all over. I buttoned it to just below my pix.. to leave a little
to the imagination. I laid down for a few hours and then woke up,
showered and left the building.

Somewhere through the day I heard someone mention a club called "KaOs". I
decided to check it out. I don't know if I've mentioned it but I'm bi. I
prefer guys and I honestly think that I might be gay. But I try to give
myself the benefit of the doubt. I pulled up to the club and handed a
valet my car keys. He drove off as I went in. I went straight to the bar
and ordered a Sky. I walked away and scoped out the crowd. From what I
could see it was mostly girls. I set my drink down and headed to the
restroom to 'release'. As I walked up to the urinal I unzipped my pants
and started my business I finished up and headed over to the sink. All
over a sudden I noticed the person next to me washing there hands as he
started to talk.

"Hey.. whats up man?"
