As the lights dimmed and the crowd erupted into cheers, the adopted girl felt a flutter of excitement course through her veins. She had been eagerly anticipating this moment for weeks, counting down the days until she could finally experience the thrill of seeing her favorite band perform live.

Little did she know, amidst the sea of faces in the audience, her presence had not gone unnoticed. Unbeknownst to her, a connection was about to be forged that would forever change the course of her life. But for now, she simply lost herself in the magic of the music, reveling in the joy of the moment and savoring every precious second of the unforgettable experience.

She had gone to the show with her friends Claudia and Danielle, who had found themselves getting into Hanson's music just a few years ago. Now it was their first time seeing them in concert, and they were all excited.

When Zac and Taylor went backstage so that Isaac could do a solo, the atmosphere buzzed with anticipation as the rest of the band members made last-minute adjustments to their instruments and exchanged encouraging smiles.

Sarah gave them high fives, telling them how awesome they were doing as usual. She enjoyed seeing them in their element of doing something they loved. Not that it didn't make her wish she could find something she loved doing for a job. But she was having a good time.

A few minutes later, they went back onstage and went back to playing as a band for a few more songs before Taylor had his turn to do a solo.

When Zac had his turn to do a solo, it was then that he noticed someone he had never met before, but there was something oddly familiar about her. She stood out in the crowd, her eyes fixed on the stage with an intensity that caught his attention. As he continued to play, his gaze kept drifting back to her, a nagging sense of déjà vu tugging at the corners of his mind. Then when the show was over, he remembered both Sarah and Taylor talking about that girl she had run into at the grocery store.

He went to a security guard, asking him to bring the girl backstage, as well as anyone she was with.

Approaching a nearby security guard, Zac quickly explained the situation, asking him to locate the girl and bring her backstage, along with anyone she was with. The security guard nodded in understanding, recognizing Zac's urgency, and swiftly set off into the crowd to fulfill his request. Meanwhile, Zac's mind raced with questions and possibilities, eager to uncover the truth behind the mysterious connection that seemed to link them to the girl in the audience.

As Zac made his way backstage to inform Sarah and Taylor about his decision to bring the girl backstage, he found them deep in conversation, their expressions serious as they discussed the events of the evening.

"Hey, guys," Zac began, his voice tinged with urgency. "I've asked a security guard to bring a girl backstage that I saw in the audience. I just have this feeling that she might be important."

Sarah's eyes widened in surprise, a mixture of anticipation and apprehension flickering across her face. "Are you sure, Zac? What if it's just a coincidence?"

Zac shook his head, his resolve unwavering. "I don't know, Sarah. But I think we owe it to ourselves to find out. Besides, it can't hurt to talk to her, right?"

Taylor nodded in agreement, his expression thoughtful. "Zac's right. Let's see what she has to say."

With their decision made, they waited anxiously for the security guard to return with the mysterious girl, their minds buzzing with anticipation and uncertainty. Whatever the outcome, they knew that their encounter with the girl held the potential to unravel the mysteries of their past and shape the course of their future in ways they couldn't yet imagine.

Being asked to come backstage with the security guard, the girl and her friends couldn't believe that it was actually happening. Especially when told that someone had asked for them specifically. Nervously, they followed him until they entered the bustling backstage area, where the air was alive with the energy of the just-concluded concert. As they were escorted further into the labyrinth of corridors and dressing rooms, the girl's heart raced with anticipation, her mind buzzing with questions and curiosity about who could possibly have requested their presence.

With each step, the excitement and nervousness intensified, until finally, they reached a door marked with a discreet "Authorized Personnel Only" sign. The security guard motioned for them to wait, disappearing inside for a moment before returning with a reassuring nod.

Taking a deep breath to steady her nerves, the girl exchanged a glance with her friends, their shared sense of anticipation palpable in the air. Whatever awaited them behind that door, they knew that their lives were about to change in ways they could never have imagined. With trembling hands and hopeful hearts, they stepped forward, ready to face whatever destiny had in store for them.

The second the three boys entered the room, they did their best to keep cool. It was her friend Claudia who did the introducing. " I'm Claudia. This is Danielle and Jessamyn."

" Hello," Taylor said, shaking hands with each of them. "It's so nice to meet each of you."

The six of them talked for a few minutes before Sarah came into the room.

As Sarah entered the room, Jessamyn's heart fluttered with anticipation, though she remained unaware of the potential connection between herself and the woman before her. She watched intently as Sarah exchanged warm greetings with the others, her presence casting a sense of warmth and familiarity over the room.

"Hey, Sarah," Zac greeted with a friendly smile, gesturing towards the group. "We thought you might want to meet these girls."

Returning their smiles, Sarah approached the group, her demeanor welcoming and friendly. "Hi, everyone," she said warmly, extending her hand in greeting. "It's a pleasure to meet you all."

Jessamyn smiled back, her curiosity piqued by the introduction. She shook Sarah's hand politely, her mind buzzing with questions but unaware of the potential significance of this encounter. As the conversation flowed, she found herself drawn in by Sarah's easy charm, grateful for the chance to connect with someone new amidst the excitement of the backstage scene.
