If you are offended by homosexual content or it is illegal for you to read this please leave. I am not affiliated with them, J records, Jive records, MTV, ABC or anything. The only thing I have remotely in common with these boys is that Ashley Parker Angel and I were born on the exact same day-August 1, 1981. FIRST THINGS FIRST: This is the 15th chapter and you guys have truly accepted me into the Nifty community. For the past 3 or 4 years I've been a reader of Nifty stories and never had the guts to put one together for myself. Now that I actually have you guys have given me so much support and I love you all. I need help though. I have been trying to come up with at least one more nickname for Nick and one for Ashley too. As you can see all I've come up with is Nicky for Nick and Ash for Ashley but I'd like something more. I'd rather not use Ashley's last name because it's just too easy but if you have any ideas or suggestions for anything else or just comments email me at pytn18@hotmail.com Thanks. http://jcv.5u.com/all/worldofslash/ --Jayson Vascardi's website that features my story and many other slash fiction stories. Go check it out. Nick and Ashley- Chapter Fifteen Nick opened the hotel door for Ashley letting his boyfriend walk in and sit down on the bed. Ashley still had the bandage wrapped around his head, letting the blond hair fall out of the sides and front of it. The doctors kept him for 2 more days in the hospital letting him get back to normal and work up some medication and then released him, deciding that no further damage could be done. "You know you look kinda cute with your hair like that." Nick said to try and lighten to situation. "Thanks." Ashley said with a smile on his face. "Then again, you look cute in pretty much every way I look at you." Nick said. "Now you're just being a smoothie." Ashley replied "Yeah well you still love me" Nick said as he ran over and was about to jump on top of Ashley but stopped himself realizing that he had to be gentle with him. Nick put a sad face on to show that he didn't like the situation. "I know it's gonna be tough Nicky but the doctor said it's only for a few weeks, then everything can be back to normal." Ashley said as he patted the bed next to him as if to say that it was ok to come near him. Nick sat down on the bed next to him and put his arm around Ashley's shoulder. "I'll be happy when that day comes. You need to get some rest though. Clive said that you have to do a press conference at 4 just to show the world that you're still alive." Nick said "Ugh, I don't feel like answering all those questions." Ashley said with a groan. "C'mon, we don't want people making up rumors that you're dead. Then you'll really have to answer questions." Nick said "Yeah I guess." Ashley said then stopped and changed directions of the conversation. "Nick" "Yeah baby." Nick replied "Thank you for being so patient at the hospital." Ashley said. "I knew I could count on you when I told my parents." "Hey it's the least I could do for the man who saved my life." Nick said "Nah I just did what needed to be done." Ashley said. "Yeah, that reminds me of something I want to talk to you about." Nick said "What's the matter Nicky?" Ashley asked. "Well, management said that we spend two more days in Chicago just so you can rest and then we head back to Orlando to take off however much time you need to get better. The whole thing in the hospital got me thinking and I think it's time I let my parents know about us." Nick said. "Are you sure?" Ashley asked. "I was sure from the second your dad wanted to shake my hand." Nick said. "Ok well I'm here if you need me." Ashley said. "I know you are Ash. I know you are. Now get a few hours of rest before you go and face the media." Nick said as he kissed Ashley on the cheek and closed the door. He stood in the hallway with his back against the wall. He slid down the wall to the floor and took a deep sigh, put his head back against the wall and closed his eyes. "Something wrong Frack?" Brian asked his friend as he was walking through the hallway. "Oh hey Brian, nah just relaxing for the first time in a few days." Nick replied. "How's Ashley?" Brian asked. "He's doing ok, he's relaxing before the press conference today." Nick replied. "That's good to hear, how about you?" Brian asked as he sat down next to Nick. "I'm ok." Nick said Brian looked at Nick and gave him a glance that an older brother would give a younger one after asking him if he was ok that a girl just dumped him. "I've definitely been better Frick." Nick admitted. "Talk to me buddy. I know that since I got married and you got into a relationship we've drifted but we've always been close. You know you can come to me for anything." Brian said. "Thanks Brian. I don't know, Ashley has been the best thing that ever came into my life. If I had to give it all up right now just so that me and Ashley can be happy I would do it." Nick said. "Sounds like you're truly in love." Brian said "I am Brian. I really am. I almost lost him though. I was so scared. The only other time I've ever felt like that is when you were having heart surgery. I felt as if there was nothing I could do. I was helpless." Nick said. Brian lifted up his shirt and revealed a smooth, very well defined six-pack and chest. It also revealed a scar down the middle of his chest. "Nick this scar is a reminder to live life to the fullest and never take anything for granted, especially a loved one. That's all you can do as a human." Brian gave Nick some great advice. "That brings me to the other reason I'm sitting here against the wall. I want to tell my parents about me and Ashley." Nick said. "When did you decide to grow up on me Nicky?" Brian asked trying to take his mind off of the situation. "What do you mean?" Nick asked. "When I first met you, you were this 15 year old punk with long blond hair who barely had a pubic hair to his name. Now you're contemplating life decisions and about to tell your parents how you want to live your life. On top of that, I've seen you in the locker room and the hair has grown in nicely." Brian said drawing a laugh out of Nick. "You were always there for me though." Nick said "Yeah well someone had to watch out for you." Brian said as he ruffled Nick's hair. "It's truly been a sight watching you grow up Nicky. I am honestly proud to call you my brother. I know you'll make the right decision with everything in your way right now." Brian said. Nick pulled Brian into a hug and squeezed him as hard as he could, which was his way of saying thank you. Brian was always an older brother to him. They were Nicky and B- Rok, they were Frick and Frack but mostly they were Nick and Brian and they knew that they could always count on each other. Ashley walked into the same conference room that Clive used to first announce this whole situation. He sat down and took a sip of water and braced himself to answer questions. "I would like to begin by saying that as you can see Ashley Parker Angel is doing ok but the "Passing the Torch" tour will be taking a 2 or 3 week break giving Ashley time to heal and the guys time to relax after these crazy times. Ashley will now take questions from all of you." Clive Davis started. "Ashley, how do you feel?" A female reporter asked. "I've been better but I am in good health and despite a headache I am ok. I will be ready to get back to work in a few weeks after this bump on my head heals. I'd like to apologize to all of the fans that had to have a concert canceled but the guys and me decided that anyone who was put through that can send their ticket stub to our fan club and we will send you an autographed poster and of course the date will be rescheduled." Ashley started. "Ashley, that's really nice of you guys. Can you clear up what exactly happened?" A reporter asked. "Umm sure, we were taking a break during rehearsal and I was talking to Jacob Underwood about the upcoming concert that night when I saw a light begin to fall and send itself towards Nick Carter. Nick had his back turned so I jumped to push Nick out of the way and the light clipped my leg, which sent me flying and I bumped my head. The doctors called it a severe concussion, so I just have to take it easy for the next few weeks and everything should be ok." Ashley said. "That's a very heroic thing you did Ashley." A reporter from the back stated. "Nah, I know that Nick would have done the same thing for me, any humane person would." Ashley said. "Ashley, speaking of Nick Carter, he was seen at the hospital shortly after the incident. Is there anything besides friendship behind this?" A reporter asked. "I'm not sure what you're implying here. Nick came to see if I was ok and simply say thank you for saving him." Ashley answered. "Yeah but shortly before this an interview with Lou Pearlman was posted in a tabloid stating the relationship between you and Nick Carter among other men in the two bands on tour. What can you say about this?" A reporter asked. "First of all, we are only 3 or 4 days from me almost dying and all you can worry about is my love life? Second of all, that is a terrible article that was completely fake. Lou was recently fired for embezzling money from us to his own account at Trans Con. He wanted a way to get back at us so that was the easiest way. What are the odds of three relationships happening on tour like that? I feel bad for Devon Sawa, he meets us the one day, becomes our friend and now he's involved in a stupid unneeded scandal. That is a ridiculous rumor and I am insulted that any of you would imply that or even bring it up in this type of situation." Ashley said with conviction lying through his teeth. There was silence in the conference room for a few seconds. Suddenly a low clap began from the back of the room. More reporters joined in and soon the entire room was clapping, besides the reporter who asked the question, who was now very red in the face. The plane ride from Chicago to Orlando wasn't a very long flight, only about 2 hours or so. Ashley stared out the window thinking. He was in quite a daze listening to his Discman. He was listening to Jimmy Eat World, a pop-punk band and it was on his favorite song "Sweetness" so the outside world was very outside to him as he focused on the lyrics. His mind began to wander however about how close he actually was to leaving this whole world behind. He knew that Nick would have suffered even worse if the light hit him and that would have been even harder to deal with so Ashley decided it was the lesser of two evils and decided not to think about it further. Ashley was so deep in thought that he jumped when his boyfriend tapped him on the shoulder. "Hey space cadet I didn't mean to scare you. We're landing soon so the captain wants you to shut stuff off and put the trays up and all that good stuff." Nick said with a smile. "Thanks Nicky, sorry I was just thinking." Ashley said as he shut the cd off and put his Discman into his Gap bag, which was one of those ones that only go over one shoulder and wrap around your chest. "About what?" Nick asked. "Just stuff." Ashley replied putting his tray up. "Stuff huh? Sounds exciting." Nick said sarcastically. "I was just thinking about what happened and what could have happened and basically stuff that I'd rather not think about anymore." Ashley said with a frown. Nick took a quick look to make sure no one was watching them and noticed that they were in the back of first class anyway where it was mostly their friends so Nick gave Ashley a quick kiss on the cheek. "I hope that makes you feel better." Nick said. "It always does." Ashley said while pushing a smile out. The plane touched down without any complications and the boys got their luggage and were soon in the limos heading back towards their homes. Ashley insisted that Nick stay at the O-town house since it was more than enough room for them and Tampa was too long of a drive. Nick agreed to stay for a few days on and off, to take care of Ashley. Nick had never been to the house and was greatly amazed at how nice it actually was. "No wonder why you guys got on MTV cribs and I didn't" Nick joked "Yeah well it doesn't hurt that 'Making the Band' follows us around like crazy during the season so they want us to look like we're living large." Jacob said "You definitely do live large. I don't even think they have houses this big in Canada." Devon remarked. Devon had also decided to come along by the begging of his boyfriend Dan Miller. He talked to his management and they set up some promotional things for him so that he could stay busy promoting his new movie. Other than that Devon had no problem taking a vacation in Orlando, Florida. "What part of Canada are you from again Devon?" Trevor asked the blond. "Vancouver." Devon replied. "How is it up there?" Trevor continued. "Beautiful, but really cold. That snow we saw in Chicago would just be a light coating for this time of year in British Columbia." Devon said. "Yeah well welcome to Orlando, no snow here I can guarantee that." Trevor joked. "Trust me I won't complain." Devon said as he followed Dan upstairs to his room. Nick also followed Ashley up to his room. "Damn you definitely got the nicest room Ash." Nick commented. "You really didn't watch the show huh?" Ashley asked with a giggle. "You know how tour life is, but if you get me the whole series on tape I'll watch them all now that you're my boyfriend." Nick said with a smile. "I'll see what I can do." Ashley said as he laid down on his bed. "How are you feeling Ash?" Nick asked his banged up boyfriend while laying on the bed next to him. "I'll live." Ashley said. "Well you better heal up because after like 2 weeks here then we go back on tour for like 3 weeks but then we have that week off that we get to spend in the Bahamas." Nick said "Holy shit I completely forgot about our little getaway. God, I can't wait. That's gonna be such a nice break. I can't wait to just lie on the beach with you and stare at your beautiful chest." Ashley said as he began to caress that same chest with his hand. "That's why you need to heal. The doctor said that we couldn't do anything that gets you too excited until your head is ok. He purposely pulled me aside afterwards and said no sex until you're better." Nick said. A frown came to Ashley's face. "He said no sex but there are other ways I can please you until you get better that won't be too harmful." Nick said as he ran his hand up Ashley's leg and squeezed his package. "Are you sure?" Ashley asked. Nick leaned in and began to kiss Ashley's neck and whispered, "I'll be gentle." Ashley moaned as Nick unbuttoned his khaki pants and lowered them and his boxers just enough so Ashley's equipment could be free. Nick began to slowly jerk Ashley off as he continued to kiss his neck. Nick was very gentle on his fragile boyfriend. He was sure to support his head and didn't get him too excited while still giving him a wonderful hand job. Not long after Ashley's 7-inch penis was at full attention, he started to feel the amazing work of Nick's strong hand. Nick began to whisper in Ashley's ear as he increased the pace. "Cum for me Ash. Cum in my hand. I want that hot, sticky cum all over my hand." Nick whispered as he continued to jerk Ashley off. "Oh god Nick keep going, faster, faster. Oh god." Ashley moaned out. Ashley couldn't take much more of his lover's assault on his cock and as Nick was whispering sweet nothings into his ear he let go of an orgasm that was gentle enough to keep Ashley's head in check yet hard enough to release a lot of sexual tension. Half of the cum went into Nick's hand and the other half went onto Ashley's hairless chest. Nick lay on that chest as it rose up and down after the orgasm, listening to his heart. He knew the heart was his and it felt alive through his chest. He and Ashley had been through a lot in the past few days and they were ready to bring it back to normal. TO BE CONTINUED... <<<< It had been a while since this story had some sexual material so I threw that in at the end. I think Ashley deserved after coming close to death. I was looking at some O- town sites the other day and found out that Ashley's favorite band right now was Jimmy Eat World, which happens to be one of my favorite bands. Go check them out. It's just another thing that Ashley and me have in common. I think we're like long lost brothers or something. We were born on the exact same day and now this. Ok I can dream can't I?
