It was a boring Friday evening and Adam was reading the newspaper, while the lads were playing.
Adam: Hey guys. I just found this article. Listen!
Larry: What's up again?
Adam: A new jazz club opening tonight. We should go and check it.
Bono: Woah man I don't really like jazz.
Adam: Oh c'mon it won't be worse than a Radiohead concert.
Edge: Ok, well what about inviting PLEBA girls?
Larry: Good idea, I call them.

*Meanwhile at PLEBA mansion*
MG: I'm boooooooring!!!!!!Why does Larry always go to these rehearsals?
Jem: Me too!
*Phone rings*
MG: Oh I'm saved. *excited* Something's happening.
Ana: I'll answer *on phone* Hello?Ah Larry! How are ya?A new club?? Well I haven't heard about it?Tonight?Um anything special?ok?sure. Yeah?. Ok?. In an hour. Bye. *Hangs up*. Hey girls. The boys invited us to a new jazz club. Would you go?
MG: Woo I'd love that. Whose idea was it?
Jem: I guess Adam's. Y'know he loves jazz.
Ana: They'll be here in an hour, so I think we should start getting dressed.
MG: But what am I going to wear. I have no clothes here!
Ana: Don't worry. I lend u one.
*the girls dress up, then the boys arrive*

*doorbell rings*
Lemonboy: *shouting*I'll open it!!! *opens the door and invites the boys inside* The girls will be ready in a minute.
Bono: And you? Come with us.
Lemonboy: Well I would but I don't feel really well, and I'd rather stay here.
Bono: Oh hope you'll be better.

*the girls appear*
Larry: *stares at MG* Wow honey. You look great. Nice dress for a party.
MG: Thanks *kisses Larry*
Edge: Where's Jem? I wanna see Jem right now.
Bono: Reg, relax, relax.
Jem: Who called me?
Edge: It was just me, honey. *Stares* Wow *speechless*
Jem: Ok I know *kisses Edge*
Ana: Hey Bono I'm here. You sexy mofo *kisses Bono*
Bono: Hey you look better than I do?
Adam: *impatient* Ok, so would you mind going?

*They're leaving*
 
*At he club they all sit to a table and order some drink. The music is live, and several bands playing*

*Behind the curtain Chrissie a pianist and her brother, John a trumpet player talking*
Chrissie: Wow, a lot of people came here. Do you think they will like our music?
John: I hope so sistah. Well we play famous songs, so I think they'd like it.. What are we going to play first?
Chrissie: I thought of a Miles Davis song.
John: What about 'Bye bye blackbird'?
Chrissie: Ok. It's all right.

*Their performance starts*

Adam: Whoa man it' s Miles Davis! I can't believe. My fav. is the first.
Larry: Christy, do u wanna dance?
MG: Of course. *grins* Wow this is gonna be our first dance as a wife and a husband!
* They go to the dancefloor, and start dancing*
Bono: Hey, Ana what about us?
Ana: *innocent smile* If you want?Or you meant to get married?
Bono: Well, first let's dance, but then?
Jem: Edge, honey, don't you wanna?
Edge: NO!
Adam: Hey man go an dance now!!!
Edge: But I can't *almost cries*
Adam: Everyone can dance, you just have to get the rhythm and move. That's it. You can do it!
Edge: Ok I try.
Adam: Don't try! DO IT!
*Jem and Edge go to dance, Adam lights a cigarette*

*They're having fun, but after two songs they getting tired and they walk back to their table. The band including Chrissie and John walk behind the curtain, and an other band starts to play. *

Bono: Hey, where's Adam?
Jem: I think he's having a good time without us. *points at the curtain where Adam talks with a girl*

Ok I continue:
*Meanwhile near the curtain a few minutes earlier*

Adam: Um, hello.
Chrissie: Hello.
Adam: I'm Adam Clayton, and I just wanted to tell you, that?
John: *shouting* Hey, Chrissie, can we go now?
Chrissie: Just a minute. *turns back to Adam* so what did you wanna tell?
Adam: Well, just? what was that song you played first? I guess it was Miles Davis, but which song?
Chrissie: It was 'Bye bye blackbird'
Adam: Oh yeah *laughs* so I loved it, and you played really good.
Chrissie: Thanks. But well, it wasn't me who played the trumpet, so I was just a supporter.
Adam: But you did it well.
Chrissie: *blush* okay, okay thanks.
Adam: Do u want to drink something?
Chrissie: I'm afraid I have to go.
Adam: *disappointed* Oh.
John: *reappearing* Hey, what are you waiting for? C'mon Chrissie!
Chrissie: Ok I've changed my mind. I think I wouldn't go home now.
John: And why?
Chrissie: 'Cause this gentleman invited me to have a drink, and I want to accept this invitation. So that's why.
John: Ok then, I go home.
Chrissie: But without me. Bye!
John: *to Adam* Don't let her drink too much!
Chrissie: JOHNNYBOY!!!!!GO HOME!!!!! NOW!!!!!!!!
John: K, bye. *leaves*
Chrissie: *to Adam* ok. So where can we sit down?
Adam: Would you mind if I introduce you to my friends? They sit over there.
Chrissie: No, I don't mind.
 
*They walk over to the lads' table*

Adam: Hey, listen everybody! This is Chrissie, the girl who played the piano while you were dancing.
All: Hello!
Chrissie: Hi!
MG: Another Chrissie. I'm Christy too.
Bono: Well, Chrissie nice to meet you. Um, do u know us?
Chrissie: Should I?
Bono: I think so. We're U2.
Chrissie: *grins* No way. It's a joke. Aha you just teased me. Ha-ha.
Larry: No, it' not a joke. We are U2.
Chrissie: Wow I really can't believe. OMG! Is it true?
Bono: Of course, sit here next me.
Ana: *whispers into Bono's ear* I think Adam saw her first, so don't be too friendly honey.
Bono: *whispers back* Hey I just wanted to entertain her. If u don't mind.
Ana: *sarcastic* Okay
Edge: So Chrissie, tell us something about yourself.
Chrissie: ok, about what?
Edge: Anything at all.
Chrissie: Well, I was born, then schools etc. I don't think you're interested in my life.
Larry: You never know. So u play the piano, right?
Chrissie: Yeah, and I can play the guitar a lil bit. You're the drummer, aren't you?
Larry: I am.
Chrissie: Wow, well, I've always dreamt about sitting behind the drumkit and roll.
Larry: You can try it, if you want.
Chrissie: Really?
Larry: Of course. You can come to the studio at any time, just to do a roll.
Chrissie: Wow thanks.
Bono: Well, I'm getting bored here. Maybe b/c I don't really like jazz, and here's jazz only. So can we go now?
Adam: And what about an other club. *looks at Bono* Without jazz.
Larry: Well, I'm getting kinda tired. I think we should go home.
MG: *nods her head*
Adam: Chrissie, do u want to stay here, or u'd rather go home. Or to an other club?
Chrissie: Well?
Bono: Hey guys, you both like jazz. Why don't you just stay here, and talk or whatever?
Chrissie: I totally agree.
Adam: Ok.

*The lads go home, and Chrissie and Adam stay and have an other drink. After talking for more than two hours, they decide to go home*

*After phoning for an hour Adam finish*

Bono: Now, did you find her?
Adam: Unfortunately no. Nobody wanted to give me the right information.
Bono: Then you have to go and visit all the bookshops.
Edge: And don't forget about the libraries. *grins*
Adam: *sarcastic* Thanks man.
Bono: *smiles* Don't worry we'll help you.
Edge: *astonished* Really????
Bono: Of course.
Adam: But what should I say her? 'Um, hi I wanna finish what we started yesterday.' This isn't sound very well.
Bono: Yeah. What about this: 'Hey I've been searching for u for hours, don't I deserve a dinner?' Then she: 'You definitely do.' Then you go, have dinner, and you bring her home and then she's going to invite you to have a drink, and then you accept. That's it.
Adam: But?
Edge: There's no but.
Adam: But what if she doesn't want to have dinner with me?
Bono: No way. I won't let her refuse your invitation.

*They go to the airport, and meet the PLEBA girls*
 
*Larry and MG are there too*

Bono: Hey, what r u doing here?
Larry: Well Ana called us and asked if we wanna come. And I said yes of course. But what's this with Chrissie?
Jem: Yeah Edge didn't wanna tell, so????
Adam: So I went to Chrissie but she wasn't at home, and her brother said that she was in London. Then we thought of looking for her, and I called bookshops and libraries but they didn't wanna tell infos.
Ana: *confused* Libraries and bookshops? Why?
Adam: B/C she's working with books, so?
Jem: And why don't you ask her brother?
Edge: *meditate* Yeah why????
Adam: Well he wasn't very kind and I didn't want to disturb him again.
Ana: But that would be much easier?*rolls eyes*

*They take off and go to London*

*In London*

Edge: So where should we start?
Adam: Well I brought the telephone book, and what about sharing the streets?
Bono: Ok, I go with Ana.
Adam: I don't mind, then Larry and MG, and Edge with Jem. So here are the addresses *writes down the addresses and gives to each groups* Meet at the Hyde Park Corner at 1 PM, and if anyone find Chrissie phone the others, and me of course.
Adam: Ok don't worry, but let's start.
Larry: Is it some kind of race, called ' Who can find Chrissie sooner? '
All: *roll eyes*

*They are scattered in the city*

*Bono goes into a shop*
Bono: Hi is Chrissie here?
Assistant: Yeah, *loud* Chrissie!!!

*A big (a very big) boy in leather, with piercings in his nose and ears and even in his eyebrows appears*

Chrissie: *in a deep voice* Whadda ya want?
Bono: Um, uh well I'm looking for a girl, called Chrissie.
Chrissie: *threaten* Hey, you said I'm like a girl?
Bono: Oh nooooooooo, you're so manly *draws back to the door*
Chrissie: Hey, you're Bono, aren't ya? From y'know U2.
Bono: Yeah I am.
Chrissie: Could I have an autograph?
Bono: Sure *signs on a sheet of paper*
Chrissie: Thanks *hugs Bono-or almost kills him*

*Bono walks out of the shop, breathing hard*

Ana: What happened to ya? You look like?
Bono: Uh don't tell me.
Ana: Was she there? *points at the shop*
Bono: NOOOO. But I learned that sometimes fame can save your life.
Ana: *confused*
 
*Meanwhile Larry and MG go into a shop*

MG: Hi, we're looking for a girl called Chrissie. Is she working here?
Assistant: I'm afraid no.
Larry: *reading a book* Hey I know this book.
MG: What's that?

MG: Oh that's a scary book.
Larry: Yeah I know but? whoa it's fantastic.
MG: Well honey I don't want to disturb you but we should go.
Larry: No way I buy this.
MG: Ok

*Larry pays and they walk in the street. Larry is reading loud*

Larry: And then Danny went into the room? The woman in the bath was dead. Her skin was white and it seemed she's smiling. Danny was standing in front of her and suddenly she stood up, and tried to strangle him.
MG: Shut up, I hate these kinds of stories.
Larry: But why? I just wanted to make you frightened.
MG: *sarcastic* Oh thanks very much.
Larry: Ok I stop it. * opens book and reads* And then the man sliced down Halloran's feet.
MG: *gets the book and throws it into a rubbish bin* So
Larry: My book!
MG: I'm sure you won't miss it.
Larry: Aha.

*Meanwhile Jem and Edge walk in the street*
 
*Edge has an arm around Jem, and they're walking, walking, walking?*

Jem: Hey shouldn't we looking for Chrissie?
Edge: Well I think the others would find her.
Jem: And we're just having fun?
Edge: Yeah, don't ya enjoy it?
Jem: Yeah I do, but we got something to do and we?
Edge: That's not a problem. They'll find her without us.

*Meanwhile Adam goes into a library and catch sight of Chrissie. She's holding lots of heavy books*

Adam: *goes over to her* Hi!
Chrissie: *astonished and almost drops the books* Adam! What the hell r u doing here?
Adam: Well?I was looking for you for hours and?
Chrissie: You what? Why?
Adam: Well I went to your place and your brother said you were here.
Chrissie: And you followed me?
Adam: Um no, but I spent hours to find you, and?
Chrissie: OMG. I can't believe.
Adam: So don't I deserve a dinner?
Chrissie: Um, well now I have to work, but?
Adam: Ok when will ya finish?
Chrissie: About 3 PM.
Adam: Fine, I'll be back then.
Chrissie: But I haven't said 'yes'.
Adam: So do you want??
Chrissie: Do you want me to want?
Adam: Do you want me to want you to want?
Chrissie: Do you?
Adam: What? Ok, Listen! I promise I'll be back at 3 PM.
Chrissie: Ok. Bye.

*Soon 1 PM comes and they all stand at Hyde Park Corner. Adam is the last to arrive*
 
Alright Chrissie, this is really getting exciting. I'm wondering if you are a librarian in real life, cause I am (besides studies). I would scream out loud, if Adam would bump into me at work.

Hyde Park, cool setting!

Chrissie: You've mentioned something about having dinner, haven't ya? I'm pretty hungry.
Adam: Yeah me too, and Larry found a great place for us.
Chrissie: Larry, the drummer Larry?
Adam: Yeah, oh he's here in the city, and Bono, and Edge, and the girls?
Chrissie: Here? And why?
Adam: 'Cause they helped me to find you.
Chrissie: And they just went home? Without even meeting me?
Adam: No, I think they are still in the city.
Chrissie: Why don't we invite them? They spent the day asking for me, and I can't see these heroes?
Adam: *disappointed* Ok, if you want.
Chrissie: *feels his disappointment from his voice* Don't you think they're good company for us?
Adam: No, but I thought that we can chat together, y'know just you and me.
Chrissie: *grins* Well we can get rid of them quickly.

*Adam grins and they leave the attic, and even the library*
