Subject: Nick Lachey: My Everything-44

Hey all, I'm back and ready to write again. It's been
such a long time, I've had to re-read the story to try
to remember what my next plot was going to be.

 Now on with the story.


First of all, let me just say that this is my first
time writing any kind of fiction like this.

DISCLAIMER: This is a work of total fiction and is not
meant to imply anything about the sexualities of Nick
and Drew Lachey or anyone else mentioned in this
story.

If you are too young to read this, or if Homosexuality
offends you, then please don't continue any further
and leave.

Other 98 Degrees stories I'd like to recommend are.

"69 with Jeff Timmons" by Zachary Scott Pritt
"Nick Lachey" by Ken.
"98 Degrees Is Hot" by Gay Night

and finally:
"This Gift" by Sprout



Now, I"ll let you get on with the story.

Enjoy.

Previously on "My Everything".....


As I walked towards the door, the phone rang again. I
turned to answer it.

"Hello?"

"Hello, is this Sean Perry?" A male voice asked.

"Yes, this is him." I said, wondering who this was.

"Hi, I'm Reverend Jace and I'm calling about your
recent wedding to Nicholas Lachey. I have some bad
news."

"What is it Rev. Jace, you sound so serious?" I asked,
not liking the seriousness in his voice.

"Well this is serious and I regret having to tell you
this, but the minister who married the two of you was
a fraud. You and Nick Lachey are not legally married."

I hung up the phone without saying anything else. I
could not put into words the emotions that were going
through my mind right now. I just froze. I couldn't
talk. I couldn't think. I just went blank.

Then Everything went black.

*******************************************************

JESSICA'S HOTEL ROOM.............

Nick knocked on Jessica's door. Within a few seconds,
Jessica opened the door, in her bathrobe. Nick gaped.
He couldn't help it.

"You like what you see?" Jessica smirked, seeing the
look on his face.

Nick shook himself out of it and blushed. Jessica
laughed, seeing his red face.

"Come on in, Cutie." Jessica said, stepping aside so
he could enter.

Nick entered, still a little embarrassed, and turned
towards her.

"What did you need to see me about, Jess?" Nick asked,
as he ran his hand through his hair.

 It happened to be the hand on which he wore his
wedding band. When, Jessica saw it, she gasped.

"Nick, why are you wearing a wedding ring?" She asked.

Nick looked at his hand and realized that Jessica
didn't know about his marriage since she'd been off on
her own tour.

"Oh, that's right, you don't know." Nick said,
smiling. "Sean and I got married a month ago."

Jessica looked shocked. but more than that, she looked
hurt.

"And I'm just hearing about it now?" She asked, hurt
obvious in her eyes. "We used to talk to each other
about everything."

After saying that, she burst into tears. Nick's face
crumpled. He didn't like seeing Jessica cry.

"Jessica, don't cry." Nick said, as he pulled her into
his arms. She buried her face into his chest as she
continued to cry.

 "Please don't cry, or you'll get me started too."
Nick said, trying to keep from crying too.

Jessica still meant alot to him. If Nick had wanted to
marry a woman, It would have been Jessica in a
heartbeat. She still held a special place in his
heart.

"I'm sorry, Nick." Jessica sobbed. I didn't mean
that."

She wiped at her eyes as she looked up at him.

"It just makes what I have to tell you alot harder."
She said, a serious look on her face.

"Tell me what?" Nick asked, letting her go from their
embrace.

Jessica looked him in the eyes and said:

"I'm pregnant."

Nick's eyes widened when he realized what she was
telling him.

"Oh my god, Jess, are you saying what I think you're
saying?" He asked.

"Yes, Nick." Jessica said, smiling. "We're going to
have a baby. Isn't this incredible?"

Jessica threw her arms around Nick hugging him close.
All Nick could think about was my reaction when I
found out about the baby.

***********
CHAPTER 44
***********

Nick was at a loss for words. He didn't know what to
say or what to do except stand there, holding Jessica
in his arms, letting the news sink in.

Jessica let go of him and looked at him, her face all
serious.

"Nick." She started. "I know the timing isn't exactly
perfect right now. I was shocked myself when I found
out that I was pregnant, but then after I had time to
think about it, I decided that I want to keep this
baby. I can't think of any other man than you that I'd
want to have a child with. Are you alright with this?"

Nick, when the news finally sunk in, looked overjoyed.

"Am I alright with this?!" Nick gushed. "Jess, I am
ecstatic!"

With those words, he pulled her into another hug.

"You've just made me the happiest man in the world
right now. That's how I feel." Nick said, tears in his
eyes. "I'm going to be a daddy?! Oh, Yes!"

Nick released her from the hug and impulsively planted
a kiss on her lips. Jessica's eyes widened for a
moment, but then she returned his kiss.

Before he could get caught up in the moment, Nick
realized what he was doing and pulled back, slightly
dazed.

"Jessica, I'm sorry." Nick apologized, running his
fingers through his hair. "I shouldn't have done
that."

Jessica gazed at Nick, her face showing alot of
emotions.

"I know, Nick." She said. "But I have to admit, it
felt wonderful. You still have that effect on me when
you kiss me like that."

Nick smiled an embarrassed smile.

"Thanks, Jessica, I'll take that as a compliment." He
said, blushing a bit.

"You do that." Jessica said, then added. "Sean is a
very lucky man to have you, Nick. I hope he realizes
that."

"I'm the lucky one, Jessica." Nick said. "When Sean
and I split up, I felt so alone. I cried myself to
sleep for many nights until I couldn't do it anymore."

Nick looked up at Jessica, who was watching him, and
smiling.

"And you were there for me when I needed a friend
most." Nick said. "You helped me through the worst
time of my life and I don't regret one second of the
time we spent together. Of course I didn't expect for
it to go as far as it did."

Jessica nodded.

"I know, Nick." She said, softly. "I didn't either,
but look what we've gotten out of it. A beautiful life
that's growing inside of me."

Here Jessica took opened her bathrobe to reveal her
stomach. As well as a little too much nakedness.

"Jessica, you're naked!" Nick said, trying to sound
upset, but Jessica knew him too well.

"As if it's nothing you haven't seen before." She
grinned.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, I get your point." Nick laughed.
"How far along are you in your pregnancy?"

"Five months." Jessica told him.

"Five months?!" Nick gasped, looking at her stomach.
"But Jessica, you don't even look pregnant at all."

It was true. Jessica didn't look pregnant at all. Her
body figure still looked great. Nobody would ever able
to tell if she was pregnant or not.

"And why didn't you tell me sooner?" Nick said,
starting to sound upset a little.

"Because I wasn't going to get to see you until today,
and I wanted to tell you in person." Jessica
explained.

Nick nodded, accepting her explanation.

"That doesn't matter now." He told her. "All that
matters is that I know now."

Jessica smiled, showing her beautiful white teeth.

"Wait until Drew, Jeff, and Justin find out about
this. They're going to freak." She said, excitedly.

Nick's happy look vanished. He was now going to have
to think about how he was going to tell Sean about
this. He needed to get back to him.

"Jessica, it's been great seeing you and getting this
wonderful news, but I really need to get back to my
husband. He's at home with Drew."

"Alright, Nick." Jessica said, putting her arms around
him, giving him one last hug. "Will you call me when
you've told everyone our news?"

"I sure will, sweetie." Nick said, kissing her on the
cheek this time, before turning around and walking
towards the door. Jessica followed him, retying her
bathrobe in place to cover herself up.

"Goodbye, Jess." Nick said, as he walked out into the
hall. "I'll be in touch."

"Bye, Nick." Jessica said, as she closed the door.

As soon as the door was closed, Jessica walked over to
the bed and buried her face in her hands. The tears
that she had been fighting back since Nick told her he
got married to Sean, finally gave way and she broke
down, crying.

"Oh God, Nick." She sobbed. "If you only knew how much
I still love you."

*******************************************************
SEAN AND NICK'S ROOM..........................

"Sean! Sean, wake up! Oh god, what happened?!"

I could hear the fright and the emotion in Drew's
voice when I came to. I slowly opened my eyes and saw
Drew looking down at me. He was crying, obviously
upset for some reason.

"Drew, what's the matter?" I asked as I looked at him.

Drew breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that I was
awake.

Oh, Sean." Drew said, pulling me up into a sitting
position on the bed. "Are you alright?"

"Yeah, I'm fine." I told him, then frowned. "What
happened?"

"Well, I just got out of the shower and I came in to
look for you and found you passed out on the floor
right here by the bedside table." Drew told me, his
eyes full of concern. "Did it have anything to do with
the call you got a while ago?"

"What call?" I asked, confused.

"I heard the phone ringing while I was in the shower
and I heard you answer it." Drew said. "Does that call
have anything to do with your passing out on the
floor?"

I then remembered the phone call. Everything was
coming back to me. But I managed to keep it out of my
face so Drew didn't catch on that anything was
bothering me. I couldn't tell him that Nick and I were
not legally married. Not yet anyway. I wasn't about to
get his hopes up when he'd been disappointed many
times before.

Hell, I didn't even think I'd be able to face Nick and
tell him, either. My head was still reeling from this
bombshell and I did not know what to do about it just
yet.

All I knew was that my whole world had been shattered
and I didn't know if I'd ever been able to put the
pieces back together again. This bombshell changed
everything. If I thought Nicks betrayal was bad enough
before, This was ten times worse.

I looked up at Drew, who was looking right back at me,
waiting for an answer.

"No, it's nothing to worry about, Drew." I lied to
him. "I remember hanging up the phone and then feeling
dizzy a few minutes later. I think I just had a dizzy
spell."

Drew looked at me, a small frown on his face. He
looked like he was trying to read me to see if I was
telling the truth or not.

"No, Sean." Drew finally said. "That's not it.
Something just doesn't feel right to me."

I sighed in frustration. Drew knew me almost as well
as Nick. He and Nick were not always right, but they
were not stupid either. They could tell when something
was bothering me.

"Why do you say that, Drew?" I aked him.

"Well for one thing, I can feel you trembling." Drew
said.

I noticed then that he had his hands on my arms and
that I was indeed trembling.

I couldn't tell him, what was really bothering me, but
then I remembered something that wasn't really far
from the truth, but wasn't actually the truth that was
bothering me.

"Alright, Drew, I'll tell you what's going on." I
said, tears starting to come to my eyes.

"Sean, what is it? It must be really serious for you
to be crying like this." Drew asked, worry evident in
his voice.

"It is." I said, wiping at my eyes. "I got a call on
my cellphone earlier. Nick's life and possibly mine is
in danger."

"What?!" Drew asked, starting to look frightened. He
then cupped my face and forced me to look at him.

"Tell me." He said, the tone in his voice saying no
excuses. "Tell me everything."

I then told him about the call I got and everything
that the eerie voice had said. Drew frowned, but I
could tell that he was definitely worried as well.

"Well from what you've told me, it sounds more like
Nick is the target and not you." Drew said.

"The reason I didn't say anything earlier is because
it didn't sound to me like it was a real threat." I
told Drew. "I thought maybe it was just someone trying
to mess with my head."

Drew stood up, holding out his hand to me. confused, I
took it and he pulled me up into a standing position.

As I was standing, he put one arm around my waist,
pulling me close to him.

I looked down at him, my face just inches away from
his. He was looking at me right in the eyes. His eyes
were almost hypnotic.

"From now on, Sean, please be honest with us all the
next time you get anymore calls like that." Drew said,
softly.

His lips were getting dangerously close to mine. And I
really had to resist the urge to want to kiss him. I
was not about to do to Nick what he did to me all
those months ago.

"I couldn't bear it if anything happened to my big
brother. Or to you." Drew whispered.

I could see his desire for me in his eyes. He wanted
me in the worst way. But yet, I could also see a hint
of sadness back there. His knowing that he could never
have me in that way.

He put a hand to my face, stroking my cheek with his
thumb. His touch was so gentle and it felt so good.

"Damn Lachey boys. Why do they have to be so damn
irresistable?" I thought to myself.

Drew started inching his face closer to me. I was
unable to stop him. It's like I was froze in place and
couldn't move or object in any way.

Just as our lips were about to touch, I heard the door
open downstairs.

"Sean?! Drew?! I'm home!" Nick's voice shouted from
downstairs.

I ran past Drew and down the stairs towards the living
room. I saw Nick standing near the door as I was
coming down.

"Hey sexy." He greeted me, just as I threw my arms
around him and hugged him tightly. maybe a little too
tightly.

"Hey, baby, ease up on the hug, I do need to breathe
you know?" Nick gasped out.

I quickly let go of him, not wanting to deprive him of
anymore air.

"Sorry baby." I apologized, looking at him.

"That's ok, Sean, you didn't hurt me." Nick said,
before pulling me to him and planting his lips on
mine.

And it was one hell of a kiss! I was almost shocked at
his aggressiveness. He must be in a really good mood
or something, because he has never kissed me like
that. Not even on our wedding day.

When he finally pulled back, I was breathless.

"Wow." I managed to get out. "That was one hell of a
kiss, Muscles. What was that for?"

Oh nothing. I'm just happy to see my handsome
husband." Nick said.

But I wasn't buying it. There was a look in his eyes
that had me wondering what it was that he was so happy
about.

"No, baby, I don't think so, There's this look in your
eyes." I pointed out, studying him closely.

"A look?" Nick asked, with a sexy grin on his face.

"Yeah." I said. "Kind of like a kid waking up on
Christmas morning. I've never seen you looking this
happy since our wedding day." What's it all about?"

"Yeah, Nick, I'm wondering the same thing."

Nick and I looked to see Drew, standing by the
staircase, his arms crossed, watching us. And he
wasn't smiling.

"Hi Drew." Nick said, flatly. He was still a little
upset at how Drew had reacted to us kissing earlier
today before the guys left for the beach.

Drew walked over towards Nick. I could see that there
was something he needed to say to Nick, so I stepped
aside for him.

Drew stopped in front of Nick and looked into his
eyes. Nick looked right back. It was their own
brotherly moment where they were reading each other's
emotions through one another's eyes.

As I watched them, Drew raised his arms and wrapped
them around Nick, giving him a hug.

"I'm so sorry, Nick, for how I treated you and Sean
earlier today." Drew said, the guilt obvious on his
face and his voice.

"I know, Drew." Nick said, as he continued to hug his
little brother. "Sean told me earlier when I called."

I just watched, not wanting to interrupt them. This
was their moment.

"I just feel so damn alone sometimes." Drew said, as a
few tears fell down his cheeks. "I don't mean to be
hard on you, ok?"

Nick ran his hands up and down his brother's back,
trying to comfort him as best he could.

"I know, buddy." Nick said, softly. "I don't really
blame you considering what you've been through lately.
With Justin and Kandi getting together, as well as
Danny and Jeff, Almost losing Sean and I in the same
night after the explosion, and that car hitting me.
It's no wonder you're feeling like this."

"Can you ever forgive me, Bro?" Drew asked, letting go
of Nick and wiping at your eyes.

"Yes, Drew, I do forgive you." Nick said, "Sean and I
both do.

Nick then turned to face me. "Right Sean?" He asked.

"Right, Nick." I replied. "I forgive him if you do.

"Good, then we're all cool then." Nick said, that grin
returning to his face. I couldn't take it anymore.

"Alright, Nick, Spill it." I said, the suspense
killing me. "it's obvious you want to tell us
something."

Nick took a deep breath.

"I went to see Jessica to find out what she wanted to
talk to me about that was so important." He told me.

"What was it?" Drew asked him.

Nick could not hold back any longer and finally just
blurted it out.

"I found out that she's pregnant." Nick said. "I'm
going to be a Daddy!"

That took the wind out of me. Drew looked stunned as
well. But as for me, I didn't know what to think or to
feel.

"So, you're telling me that you're having a baby with
HER?" I asked, my voice, surprisingly calm.

Nick looked at me, concern written on his face.

"Sean, before you freak out, I just want to tell you
that I didn't cheat on you again. I promised you that
I'd never do that to you again and I meant it." Nick
said, trying to soften the impact of his news.

"When did this happen, Nick?" I asked him.

"It was about a few weeks after you and I had broken
up and you'd left the tour." He said.

"I see." I said and turned away, trying to fight back
the tears that were threatening to fall.

This news was alot more than I could take. When I'd
found out that my marriage to Nick was a fraud, I
didn't think that things could possibly get worse. Now
I hear that Nick had been seeing Jessica while we were
broken up and now she was pregnant with his baby. This
was alot for me to process.

"Sean, please try to understand." Nick said. "This
happened when we were broken up, so you don't have any
reason to be upset with me for this. I know the timing
isn't exactly perfect right now, but I thought that
you should know about this. I just wanted to be honest
with my husband. Please believe me?"

But that wasn't the problem. I did believe Nick when
he said that he hadn't cheated. But I was still having
a hard time with this because I was feeling a little
jealous. Jealous of Jessica because she was giving
Nick something that I could never give him: A child.

But most of all, I was having doubts now. doubts about
whether or not, Nick and I should even be together.
Not to mention, Drew was still in love with me and It
was getting really hard to be around him right now.

I turned around to face Nick and saw that my silence
was killing him. I then decided to give him an out if
he chose to take it.

"So, what does this mean, Nick?" I asked him. "Are you
going to leave me?"

Nick face took on a look of shock when I asked him
that.

"What?!" Nick asked, stunned. "No, Baby, I'm not going
to leave you. Where would you get an idea like that?"

I just sighed and sat on the couch, burying my face in
my hands. But I was not crying. Just exhausted from
all these revelations I've had to process.

I felt someone come over and sit next to me on the
couch. Then I felt his arms around me.

I looked up to see that It was Nick. He was looking at
me with a look of concern on his face.

"I guess I'm just exhausted from everything I've had
to process today." I told him.

"Well now that you say that, how about we go and meet
up with the guys. They're still at the beach." Nick
suggested.

That sounded great to me right about now. I could use
a break to take my mind off of today's events.

"Sure, baby." I said, getting up. "I'd love to."

"Great." Nick said. "Well since I've still got my
swimsuit on, I'll go and get the car ready."

I looked down and noticed that Nick did indeed have
his swimming trunks on. And they were a nice new pair
of red ones that showed off his ass nicely.

"Sweetie, I have to say, you've never looked sexier in
swimming trunks than you do right now." I asked,
checking him out.

"Thanks, baby." Nick said. "I bought these new ones
for that reason. Also because it makes my ass look
good for your eyes."

I just laughed.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, Just move it so Drew and I can go
and get in our trunks." I said, slapping his ass.

"Ok, ok." Nick laughed. "Don't be long."

"We won't, Nick." Drew said, just as Nick opened the
door and walked out.

I was alone with Drew in the house. I turned and saw
Drew giving me that look again. But I was not about to
get caught up in it this time.

"Get your mind out of the gutter, Drew." I said,
arching my brow.

"Why shame on you, Sean, I wasn't thinking that at
all." Drew said, a small smirk on his face.

"Yeah, right." I said, turning and walking upstairs to
Nick's room, where I pulled open the bottom dresser
drawer and pulled out my blue swimming trunks.

I slid off my underwear to put on my trunks. As I did,
I heard a whistle from the doorway.

I turned around to see Drew checking out my ass as I
was pulling on my trunks.

"Drew!" I exclaimed, blushing. "Stop gawking at my ass
and get changed, already!"

"Sure, sexybuns." Drew said, with a giggle, as he
walked to his room.

"Sexybuns?" I asked with a small laugh. "Drew, you are
insane, you know that?"

"I heard that!" Drew said, popping his head back to
the door.

I jumped in surprise.

"Drew, get your ass into those swimming trunks before
I kick it for you." I warned him, trying to look stern
about it.

"Careful, Sean." Drew flirted. "I might just take you
up on that."

He smiled and finally walked into his room. I heard
the door shut behind him.

I rolled my eyes, a smile still on my face. What was I
going to do with Drew? Even though he was in love with
me, I still managed to find ways to love him even more
as a friend. Besides Danny, I couldn't think of anyone
else I'd rather have as a friend than Drew. Drew could
always keep things interesting.

I tied the string of my swimming trunks, tightening
the trunks snugly around my waist. I then pulled on a
white tank top. Then I decided to look in the mirror
to check my appearance.

I then noticed how long my hair was getting and I was
really starting to like it. I decided that I was going
to grow it out even longer. I just hoped that Nick
would approve.

I decided that I was ready and turned towards the door
to go. When I did, I froze in my tracks.

Drew was standing in the doorway, dressed in a pair of
black swimming trunks and a form fitting muscle shirt,
which clung to his torso, showing off his sexy chest
and abs. I stared. I couldn't help myself.

"If you keep staring at me like that, you're gonna
hurt yourself." Drew chuckled.

I snapped out of it and shook my head, a smile on my
face.

"Drew, please, you look hot and you know it." I said.
"I wouldn't be human if I didn't notice."

"Thanks, man. Drew said, grinning. "That was my plan.
I want to make sure I get you to notice me alot now."

Drew walked over to me and stood in front of me. He
took my hands and set them right on his pecs, which he
flexed a little.

"like what you feel, cutie?" Drew whispered.

"Drew, cut this out, please?" I begged him. "You're
only going to end up humiliating yourself in the long
run. I don't want to see you go into another
depression again and that's what will happen if you
keep wanting something that you will never have."

Drew let my hands go and just looked at me like I'd
slapped him.

"Alright, Sean." He said, sadly. "I'll stop. But don't
expect me to just ignore my feelings for you. They're
not going to go away overnight."

"I know that, Drew." I said, rubbing his arm,
sympathetically. "All I ask is that you try to get
over me. Do it for me. if not for me, do it for your
brother."

Drew nodded. "I'll try." He said, still looking glum.

"Now come on, let's go. I'm sure Nick is getting
impatient by now."

"Lead the way, cutie." Drew said, as I walked
downstairs with him right behind me.

I grabbed my jacket in case it got cold out later and
walked out the door and turned back to see Drew grab
his keys. He then joined me outside and locked the
door.

Nick was waiting in the car. I then turned to Drew.

"Do you want to sit up front with Nick, Drew?" I asked
him.

Drew shook his head.

"No, Sean, you go ahead." He replied. "I'll sit in the
back seat."

"Suit yourself, buddy." I said, as I hopped in the car
beside Nick.

"Hey, what took you two so long?" Nick asked.

"Oh, nothing." I told him. "Drew and I were just
making sure we both were looking all pretty for going
out."

Nick turned around and checked out his brother's
trunks and muscle shirt.

"I think it paid off." He said. "You look great."

"Thanks, Nick." Drew told him, looking Nick over as
well. "So do you."

"Thanks, Bro." Nick said, grinning. "So, are we ready
to head on to the beach?"

"Hell yes, baby." I said. "Let's go.

Nick shifted the car into "Drive" and drove us off to
the beach.

When we got there, We got out of the car and headed
over to where Jeff, Danny, Justin and Kandi were
sitting.

"Where have you been, Nick?" Justin asked him, as we
walked up to the table. "We were almost worried when
we saw that you'd left earlier."


"Well, for one thing, Jessica called and asked to see
me about something, so I had to see what she wanted.
Then after I found that out, I went home to see what
was keeping Sean and Drew."

Kandi looked over at Drew and I.

"Did you guys manage to get everything worked out?"
She asked us. Drew and I both nodded.

"Yes, Kandi, We're cool now." I said, putting my arm
around Drew, patting his arm as I did.

"Yeah, we are." Drew said. I'm sorry about my outburst
earlier. I guess I'm just a little lonely, that's all.
Nick and Sean both forgive me. I hope you all can
too."

"If Sean and Nick forgive you, so do we." Jeff said,
from his lounger, beside Danny.

Both he and Jeff were shirtless and their bodies
looked amazing. They had both bulked up a little more.

Noticing that, I was starting to feel a familiar
stirring in my trunks.

"Ok, guys, I'm going swimming. I said, stripping off
my shirt and setting it down on the table.

I then started running towards the water before anyone
else could see my hardon.

"Hey Sean, wait for us!" Nick said, stripping his
shirt off too and running after me.

"We're coming too!" Danny said, standing up. "Come on,
Jeff, I'll race you!"

Danny started running before Jeff was even up out of
the lounger.

"Danny! That's not fair!" Jeff said, running
frantically after him to catch up.


I dove into the water and started swimming. About a
few seconds later, I felt someone grab my leg and pull
me towards them.

I looked back to see Nick, just as I came in contact
with him.

"Hey sexy." He panted. "What was that all about?"

"I saw Jeff and Danny shirtless and started sporting a
hard on, so rather than let them see it and tease me
about it, I took action." I said, blushing.

"Oh." Nick said. Then a devilish grin crossed his
face. Uh oh! He was up to something!

"In that case, how about I take care of it for you?"
Nick offered, as he reached down my trunks and grasped
my dick. Now that caught me off guard. I looked around
to see if there was anyone around that might see what
we were up to.

"Nick!" I exclaimed. "What are you doing?"

"What does it feel like I'm doing?" Nick whispered.
"I'm giving you an underwater jerk off."

I had to admit it felt incredible to have Nick's hand
around my dick, but I was still really nervous about
it.

"Well cut it out." I whispered back. "What if someone
sees this?"

"Like who?" He asked, still grinning.

"You're bad, you know that?" I asked, smiling.

"That's why you love me, sweetness." Nick said.

He started to stroke me off and I melted.

"Oh god, Nick." I moaned.

I then looked back to notice Danny and Jeff swimming
towards us.

"Ok sexy." I said, pulling his hand away. "Danny and
Jeff are coming up behind us, so you have to stop
now."

Nick gave me that puppy dog look again, which made me
roll my eyes.

"Alright if it will make you feel any better, how
about we finish this tonight in our bed?" I asked him,
with a grin.

"Oh, I intend to, cupcake." Nick said, flashing his
killer smile.

"Cupcake?" I asked, giving him a funny look. Then I
grabbed him and dunked him under the water.

Then I started swimming as fast as I could towards the
shore.

I looked back and noticed that Nick was gaining on me,
quickly. He was a great swimmer too!

I made it to shore. But as I started to run, I felt
Nick's arms go around me and he tackled me. I laughed
as we both fell into the sand.

Then, as I tried to get up, He pinned my arms down. I
looked up at him, smiling. Even though he was out of
breath, he was smiling too.

"You didn't think you were going to get away from me
that easily, did you?" Nick panted.

"No, sexy, I knew you'd catch me sooner or later." I
said, grinning.

"Do you know what I could do to you right now?" Nick
asked, seductively.

"Now, Now, Sexy, Keep yourself under control." I
laughed. "And let's get up before people start to
talk."

Nick let go of me and got up, holding his muscular arm
out, offering me a hand. I took it and he pulled me up
with him.

"Ok." I said. "I'm ready to go sit back in the lounger
and relax for awhile." I told him.

"Ok, I'll walk you back." Nick said. "But I'm still
going to swim for awhile."

"Sure, go ahead, Nick." I said, as we walked back to
the table, where Justin and Kandi were getting up.

"Hey you two." I greeted them. "Are you going back
into the water?"

"Yep." Justin nodded. "We're going to join Jeff and
Danny."

"I'll join you guys." Nick said, as I sat back in the
lounger, putting on my sunglasses and shutting my
eyes.

"Drew, are you coming?" Nick asked Drew, who was
sitting in the lounger next to me.

"No, Nick, you go ahead." I heard him say. "I'll join
you guys in a bit."

"Alright, bro." Nick said, then I felt him touch my
leg, causing me to open my eyes.

"I'll see you later, sexy." he whispered. I nodded.

"Have fun, Muscles." I whispered back, as he ran up to
Justin and Kandi and the three of them started running
towards the water.

I was alone with Drew once again. I sat back and
closed my eyes, letting the sound of the waves and the
gentle breeze, totally relax me.

As I laid there, I thought about everything that I'd
learned today. I was devastated that Nick and I were
not legally married. And to find out that he and
Jessica were expecting a child was also hard for me to
take. A part of me was happy for Nick, but another
part of me felt betrayed again, even though I had no
reason to feel that way. After all, I was the one who
ended it with him. Since then, he was free to see
whoever he wanted to. So, I shouldn't have to be
feeling betrayed like this again. Maybe it was because
Nick had not told me that he was seeing Jessica again
while we were broken up.

Now, I finally understood why Nick hadn't called or
talked to me much and why he was so distant whenever
we did. He obviously had been trying to move on with
his life.

I knew at that moment that I couldn't go on like this
anymore. I knew what I had to do..........

I was brought out of my thoughts by a squishing noise
from where Drew was sitting.

I opened my eyes and turned my head to see that Drew
was applying sunscreen to his body. I couldn't help
watching.

I watched his hands glide up his chest a couple of
times, working it in.

He must have felt me watching him, because then his
hand went slowly down his abs, which he flexed, as he
ran the lotion over them. He kept them flexed as he
ran his hand up and down them again and again,
enjoying the fact that he was making me crazy. He
didn't even look my way.

I could feel myself getting hard again, but since I
was covered up in the towel, It wasn't noticeable yet.

I stopped watching him and closed my eyes again,
hoping that I could get my mind off of his body, but
it was not happening.

"Sean, could you put some lotion on my back for me,
please?" Drew asked, suddenly.

"Huh?" I asked, opening my eyes and taking off my
shades to look over at him.

"Could you put some of this on my back?" Drew asked,
holding out the bottle of sunscreen.

"Sure." I said, shrugging.

"Thanks, buddy." Drew said.

Then he turned over on his stomach So I could put the
lotion on his back.

I squeezed some into my hands, which I then worked
into his back, letting my hands glide across his silky
skin.

"That feels good, Sean." Drew whispered. "You have
great hands."

"Thanks." I whispered back, softly.

I could tell he was enjoying this. Maybe a little too
much.

"Could you do my legs too?" I heard him ask.

"Alright, but after that, I'm done, ok?" I said,
reluctantly.

"Ok." Drew agreed, even though I thought I heard
disappointment in his voice too.

I put some more lotion on my hands and started
spreading it over Drew's thighs. I heard him moan a
little at my touch.

As, I worked the sunscreen lotion into his legs, I
couldn't help but think about the time that Drew and I
had almost slept together. Feeling his soft silky skin
against mine. I remembered groping his perfect ass and
hoticing how good he felt.

I got so lost in thought that I didn't notice that I'd
stopped running my hands along his thighs. Drew turned
over and noticed the dreamy look on my face.

"Hello? Earth to Sean?" Drew said.

I snapped out of my daydream and caught Drew gazing at
me, with a confused look on his face.

"I'm sorry, Drew, what did you say?" I asked,
apologizing to him for not paying attention.

"What were you thinking about just now?" He asked me.

"Nothing for you to be concerned about." I said.

I got up from the foot of Drew's lounger and got back
into my own.

I looked out towards the water just in time to see
Nick, Jeff, Danny, Justin, and Kandi swimming towards
the shore. They were all heading towards us.

By now, it was sunset and most of the people there at
the beach were packing their belonging together and
going home.

"Hey you guys." Nick greeted us, when they all finally
made it back up to the table.

"Hi, Bro." Drew said. "Did you have fun out there?"

"Yeah I did." Nick said, "But I have to admit it
didn't feel the same without my best friend and my
husband to join in."

"I'm sorry, Nick." Drew said. "I guess I just didn't
feel much like swimming today."

I could hear the sadness in Drew's tone. I think Nick
picked up on it too because he then asked Drew if he
was alright.

"I'll be ok, Nick." Drew said. "I just have alot on my
mind."

"Would It help to talk about it, Drew?" Jeff asked,
from his place beside Danny at the table.

"No, not right now, Jeff." Drew replied. "I just need
to sort out a few things, that's all. I'll let you all
know if I need to talk, ok?"

"Alright, if you're sure, buddy." Danny said.

"I am." Drew insisted, nodding.

"Well, guys, I'm beat. How about we all go home now?"
Kandi suggestes, combing back her wet hair and pulling
it back in a ponytail.

"I'm down with that, idea." I agreed. I was ready to
go home and finish what my sexy man had started in the
water earlier today.

"Hey, now that I'm seeing you pull your hair back,
Kandi, I just noticed how long Sean's hair is
getting." Jeff said, checking me out.

Everyone looked at me and noticed that my hair was
already long enough to pull back as well. They were
surprised at how different I looked with longer hair.

"Would you guys be alright with it if I choose to grow
it even longer?" I asked everyone.

They all looked at each other for a moment, then
looked back at me and nodded.

"It's your hair, baby." Nick said. "I still think you
look sexy with long or short hair. Hell, you'd look
sexy even if you shaved your head bald.

"I don't know about that, Nick." I laughed. "I can't
see myself doing that."


We all got engrossed in conversation as we packed up
our belongings and headed to our cars.

Drew told Nick and I that he was going to ride back
with the guys so Nick and I could spend some time
alone together.

Nick and I got in his car and he started driving us
towards home. Justin and the rest of the gang were in
front of us in his van. Only this time Drew was
driving, giving Jeff, Danny, Justin and Kandi some
cuddly time with each other.

Nick and I got into the car and he drove the two of us
home.



TBC............?


Well, that's all for this installment. Sorry it took
so long for me to get out. I have alot going on in my
life right now and barely have time to write as much
as I used to.

Will Sean and Nick's love survive these latest
bombshells?

And when Sean learns that Jessica still loves Nick and
wants to get him back, what will he do?

Will he let her have him? or "Get It On!" (meaning
fight to keep his man.)

Stay tuned.
