They rock! Just One Call: Chapter One: "Hello, hello" Justin Timberlake answered walking up his stairs, toward his bedroom. Once there he opened the door and lay down on the bed. "Why hello yourself." His best friend, and secret desire, Josh Chasez, better known as JC, answered. Justin had been in love with JC since the Mickey Mouse Club, but wasn't sure if it was just because he admired JC so much, or if he was truly attracted to him. Recently he notice himself gazing at JC, studying the way he moved, the way he spoke, and definitely the way he danced. With all the pelvic thrust, it always made Justin's insides melt. "Hey JC! How's New York so far?" he replied, just happy to hear his voice on the other end of the line. "Boring without you." JC smiled. He too was secretly in love with his best friend. Unlike Justin, JC had known he was gay from the time he started being attracted to Justin. He had been with other men, but love wasn't involved. It didn't seem right with anyone else. Justin was the only one he would love. Justin blushed at JC's comment. They had been doing this for awhile now, flirting back and forth, neither walking past that line of love and flirtation. It's not that they didn't want to, they were jus terrified at what the other would think. Neither knew the other was gay, or that he loved him. "Well, what are you doing?" asked Justin, trying to hide the smile from his voice. JC thought for a minute, then answered: "Just laying on this lumpy hotel mattress, thinking." "About?" "You. And me. Us" he answered. Justin paused, unable to come up with anything to say to that. thought Justin as he stared at his ceiling. "Hello? Earth to Justin, come in Justin! Ya still with me buddy?" "Oh... Yeah" Justin responded. "I was... uh.. just thinking too." "Oh yeah? About what?" inquired JC. "Same thing as you." Justin said with a laughed. He knew that he caught JC off guard with that comment. JC thought silently. "Justin? Can I ask you something?" "Anything." "Do you ever think about me?" "All the time." Justin smiled. He truly did think about JC all the time. It was all he ever did these days. When there was nothing to do he wouldn't play basketball, or watch tv, he'd think about JC, and his perfect lips, and how much he longed for one kiss from them. "No I mean..." JC stuttered. "I mean... I mean in a way other then the way you... you... you think about Chris. Do you think of me in a completely different way?" Justin thought for a few minutes before answering. "Of course I do. How could I not? You're all I ever think about." Justin quickly covered his mouth after realizing what he had just admitted to. He closed his eyes and tears softly started to fall free. He had just ruined his friendship with JC. Or at least he thought he did. There was no reply form the other end. JC was completely speechless. He couldn't even think straight anymore, not that he ever could think `straight', but now something had changed. He was more convinced then ever that Justin felt something, just like he had. Justin gathered his courage and spoke: "JC? Are you still there?" JC took a ragged breath. "Yeah, I'm still here Justin." He heard Justin's tears and instantly became concerned. "Justin, are you crying?" Justin didn't respond, but JC already knew the answer. "Just, please don't cry, please? You're too beautiful to be crying." Justin stopped at JC's last words. "Oh god!" groaned JC. "Just, please don't hate me? I knew I shouldn't have said that! I'm so sorry! Please forgive me? Just forget I even said that! In fact, forget I even called. Just forget it! I'll just hang up now." Tears were slowly forming in JC crystal blue eyes. "Wait!" Justin called. "Don't hang up." JC paused. "Why not? You hate me now! I know it! I should have never told you the truth." "But I like the truth." Justin replied. "I like to hear you call me beautiful. It sounds so much better when you say it." He smiled to himself. JC thought he was beautiful. He was happy now. The tears stopped flowing and he wiped the last away. "You like when I call you beautiful? You don't think it wrong of me, for being your best friend?" JC asked cautiously. "Actually..." Justin started. "I love it! I love hearing those words coming from your sweet lips. I love when you smile at me, I love when we hang out all alone, I love when you touch me, no matter what context it is, and I love.... I love..." Justin suddenly stopped, not daring to go any further. He couldn't tell JC he was deeply in love with him. He'd never speak to Justin again, let alone sing. "What do you love Justin?" "Never mind." Justin covered. "Why don't you go back and talk more about that truth. Like the: `You're beautiful' and such." JC laughed. Justin was so extremely adorable. He always made JC smile. Whenever JC was feeling down he'd just call up Justin and an instant smile would be on his face, like the world all of a sudden made sense to him, but when Justin would hang up everything would go back to being a jumble of thoughts and ideas. The sense he once held would disappear like many a dream. "You mean you want me to talk about your voice, and the way I crumble every time I hear it?" There was no response from Justin, but JC knew that he wanted him to continue. "Just, I wish more then anything that when you sung, you were singing just for me. Just to me." JC heard a soft moan from the other end and took that as a reason to go on with his explanation. "And your body! God Justin! Have you ever looked at yourself in the mirror? Your body drives me absolutely crazy. I just want to hold it in my arms." "I want that too." Replied Justin. It was all he ever had wanted in life. For someone to love him, and take care of him, and hold him until the end of time. He just wanted that person to be JC. "I want that more then anything in the world JC. I want you to hold me at night. To wrap me up in your strong arms, and to know that no matter what happens during the day, you'll always be there, by my side, making everything better." JC softly started to cry from happiness. Justin wanted the exact same thing as he. He wanted JC, and JC wanted him. It was more then he could ever asked for. "JC? Are you crying now?" Justin questioned. He just heard a silent sob in return. "JC? Please stop crying? If I'm too beautiful to be crying, then you are definitely too sexy to be crying." Both Justin and JC chuckled at this comment. "Just, I have a good... SCREW GOOD! I have a GREAT reason to be crying!" JC laughed out. "I'm crying because I'm happy! I'm happy you want the same thing I do! I'm happy you want me to hold you at night, and to make everything better." The tears stopped and JC got serious. "Just I need to tell you something." "What is it Josh?" "I... I... I'm...." ************* *********** ******** Will Justin and JC become a couple? Will JC ever admit his true feelings for Justin?
