EXCERPT:
Kevin Rowe was an international film star and in the eyes of Mitch Sorz, an international superstar.  Mitch had seen every one of Kevin’s movies, and had posters of him on every wall of his bedroom.  Mitch had graduated from high school this year and as a surprise, his parents were taking him to the Cannes Film Festival to see his idol in his latest film debut. 

“Come on, Mitch.  We have less than an hour now to get to the airport,” Mitch’s mother, Mary Sorz, shouted up the stairs.  Running down the stairs, Mitch ran ahead of his mom, and helped his dad load the suitcases into the car.  “Can you believe that Kevin Rowe is my age, Dad?  He’s a star.  He’s been famous since he was a kid.  He’s so lucky.”  Mitch’s dad, Frank Sorz, smiled at his son.  “I guess he is.”  Mitch’s mom came hurrying out.  “I called your sister.  She’s meeting us at the airport.”

The place was beautiful, and packed with movie stars and tourists.  “Oh, look, Mitch.  There’s Russell Crowe.”  Mandy was definitely star struck.  “Yeah, yeah.”  “Oh, look, Mitch, I think that’s Kevin Rowe.  Damn, he has really changed since last year.”  Mandy dipped her sunglasses to get a good look.  Mitch’s mouth fell open.  Kevin was gorgeous.  He sure has changed a lot more than I have since last year, Mitch thought, suddenly feeling much younger than his eighteen years.  Mandy was right.  There were girls all around Mitch’s dream guy, trying to get as close to him as they possibly could.  “Wow, Mitch, look at the security that kid’s got.”  “Hey, he’s my age.  He’s not a kid.”  “Whatever.  Come on, Mitch, let’s get a closer look.”  Mitch walked behind Mandy, almost afraid to look at the man who had been the object of his desire since the first time he had looked into his eyes for that magical split second.  The crowd had been thinned out some by the massive display of security surrounding the very famous Kevin Rowe, and Mandy and Mitch were able to get closer to him than they thought they would.  Mitch stopped his sister from going too far.  “Mandy, wait,” he said.  “What?  Don’t you want to see him?”  Mitch shrugged his shoulders.  He didn’t take his eyes off of Kevin, though.  He was definitely beautiful.
