Date: Mon, 24 Dec 2001 07:03:00 +0000 From: N D Subject: nick and ashley-chapter 7 DISCLAIMER: I don't know O-town and am not implying anything. I am in now way affiliated with them or J records or MTV or 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. FIRST THINGS FIRST: I appreciate all of the emails. There has been a few of you from the very beginning and some just joining us but you guys are all awesome. Keep the suggestions coming for the other relationship in the storyline. We've got a few good ones. Grab the popcorn...onto the show! Nick and Ashley-Chapter Seven The Charlotte Coliseum was completely packed. A sold out venue full of screaming fans waiting for the next young act to come out and put on a solid performance. O-town had just come out and provided a very good opening act, which left the crowd only wanting more. This was good however as they knew something just as good and if not even better was coming up. The Backstreet Boys, arguably the best pop group around and considered one of the fathers of pop was up next. As the 5 boys stepped on stage, the crowd meter went from loud to deafening. "We're gonna sing a few songs for you guys if that's ok" Brian said into his microphone, which made the crowd go even crazier. The boys set up in the 5 spots they had rehearsed over and over again beforehand. The music to Larger Than Life came through the speakers and the boys began the dance. "I may run and hide When you're screamin' my name, alright But let me tell you now There are prices to fame, alright All of our time spent in flashes of light" With the last word the lights went completely out and the song stopped. The boys took green and blue glow sticks out of their pockets and held them up in the air. After a second or two the music started again and the boys did their dance in the dark with only the light of the sticks. "All you people can't you see, can't you see How your love's affecting our reality Every time we're down You can make it right And that makes you larger than life Looking at the crowd And I see your body sway, c'mon Wishn' I could thank you in a different way, c'mon 'Cause all of your time spent keeps us alive All you people can't you see, can't you see How your love's affecting our reality Every time we're down You can make it right And that makes you larger than life All of your time spent keeps us alive" With that the lights came back on and the boys threw the sticks into the crowd. Charlotte, North Carolina was at the top of their lungs for this awesome performance. The show continued on with the Backstreet Boys showing why they were one of the best in the business and why Lou Pearlman had given them an original shot before N'Sync or O-town ever came along. The show was near the end and the five boys lined up in a straight line. "This next one goes out to all the special people in our lives." Nick said through his microphone. Ashley looked on from backstage. He knew Nick was talking about him and was excited to hear what song he was talking about. Ever since lunch earlier that day where he and Nick shared their lives to each other he began to feel extremely good about their relationship. Nick began to sing softly by himself a familiar tune. Just Nick singing added an interesting twist to a beautiful song. "I guess you were lost when I met you Still there were tears in your eyes So out of trust and I knew No more than mysteries and lies There you were, wild and free Reachin' out like you needed me A helping hand to make it right I am holding you all through the night" The other 4 guys harmonized in with Nick during the chorus which added a great sound to it. "I'll be the one Who will make all your sorrows undone I'll be the light When you feel like there's nowhere to run I'll be the one..." After the chorus finished all of the boys looked down and with a flash of pyro the fast pace of the original version of the song came back and each member of BSB began to do the choreographed dance to it. "To hold you and make sure that you'll be alright 'Cause my faith is gone And I want to take you from darkness to light There you were, wild and free Reachin' out like you needed me A helping hand to make it right I am holding you all through the night" As the breakdown came through Brian stepped to the front of the stage and belted out his verse with all he had. Nick was not the only one signing for someone special. Brian was recently married and he loved his wife Leigh Ann very much. He didn't mind the publicity it gave him. He didn't care actually. He loved his wife and he loved his life and nothing could take that from him. He sang because he cared and he sang with the same velocity he had when he first signed with the Backstreet Boys. "You need me like I need you We can share our dreams comin' true I can show you what true love means Just take my hand, baby please" The rest of the boys stepped in and helped Brian out. "I'll be the one I'll be the light Where you can run To make it alright I'll be the one I'll be the light Where you can run" After the last words were sung and the music stopped, all of the boys shouted some thanks into the microphones and headed backstage. The crowd was relentless. They loved every part of the performance and were letting BSB know it. With smiles on their faces all 5 members stood in a circle looking at each other. Years and years of memories flashing through them in each other's eyes. As if knowing what each of them was thinking Kevin announced, "Let's do this boys." All 5 members went back on stage and took places in stools. Howie took his microphone and began to speak to the crowd. "Ok guys we're gonna do something cool right now. Since O-town is on tour with us right now and we consider them the future of our genre of music we are going to cover one of their songs right now as a 'passing the torch' type of thing" The crowd went crazy upon hearing this and obviously enjoyed the idea of BSB doing an O-town cover. Kevin walked over to the piano and said into a microphone around his mouth and earpiece "That's right guys this is our way of saying thank you to them for making us feel young again. We're gonna need their help though so let's bring the boys back out here." Surprised, the 5 boys of O-town walked back on stage. Ashley flashed Nick a questioning glance and Nick gave him a comforting look. Kevin began to play the opening tunes to "All or Nothing" on the piano. Each of the Backstreet Boys took an O-town member and paired up with them. Kevin and Trevor were by the piano, Howie and Erik on one side, along with AJ and Dan. Over a little more on the right was Brian and Jacob and of course Nick standing by Ashley pretending as if they barely know each other. Every time an O-town member sang his part of the song, their Backstreet affiliate would sing it with him. Dan, the baritone, started the song so AJ sang with him. "I know when he's been on your mind That distant look is in your eyes I thought with time you'd realized It's over, over It's not the way I choose to live And somewhere something's got to give And sharing this relationship get older, older" Erik picked up his part of the verse and was accompanied by Howie in a very sweet sounding mix. "You know I'd fight for you But how can I fight someone who isn't even there I've had the rest of you now I want the best of you I don't care if that's not fair" All 10 boys on stage belted out the chorus. No other 10 voices in the world seemed as if they belonged together. "Cause I want it all Or nothing at all There's no where left to fall When you reach the bottom it now or never Is it all Or are we just friends Is this how it ends With a simple telephone call You leave me here with nothing at all" Ashley and Nick stepped to the front of the stage. The girls in the first 10 rows going absolutely nuts that the two heartthrobs of the group were put together to sing the second verse. If they only knew what was really going on... "There are times it seems to me I'm sharing you with memories I feel it in my heart but I don't show it, show it And then there's times you look at me As though I'm all that you can see Those times I don't believe it's right I know it, know it" Trevor was sitting on top of the piano when he and Kevin began their section of the song. "Don't make me promises Baby you never did know how to keep them well I've had the rest of you Now I want the best of you It's time for show and tell" All 10 members sang the chorus beautifully once again, leaving many of the girls in the crowd in tears. There was only one part of the song yet, which was left to Jacob and Brian, two of the best voices/producers/writers in the business right now paired up on a very crucial breakdown part of the song. " Cause you and I Could loose it all if you've got no room No room for me inside your life Cause I want it all Or nothing at all There's no where left to fall it's now or never" After the song was over all the boys ran off stage and congratulated each other on a great concert. "That was awesome boys...let's go celebrate." AJ declared "Alright everybody hit the showers and let's get out of here." Kevin said in a fatherly tone. After all the boys had gotten changed out of their concert outfits and into somewhat more comfortable clothes but not so much so since they were headed for a club, they hopped into the limos deciding that they would make a stylish entrance and show NC how to really do it. The bouncers let them in right away of course and the boys tried to blend in as best they could. It didn't matter though because this tour was fully equipped with the necessary security that would make any asshole who wanted to get their hands on the boys be scared with a simple look. The boys walked in and headed straight for the bar. Ashley ordered an Amoretto Sour and Nick got a Screwdriver. After all the boys were done they headed to their table. Right before Nick left he handed the bartender a 100-dollar bill and told him to keep the drinks coming straight to the table. The bartender was more than willing to comply to the superstars. Nick and Ashley found a table towards the back and were surrounded by their friends and band mates. Between the laughing and the bobbing heads and the good times that alcohol lead to, Ashley seemed to trail off. He would look over at Nick and it almost felt as if it was a dream. Nick would laugh and Ashley would see it in slow motion. That beautiful smile of Nick's was a site of its own. Just watching Nick be happy put a smile on Ashley's face. A sensation on Ashley's leg knocked him out of the daydream he was having and noticed it as Nick's hand moving up towards his inner thigh. Ashley loved the feeling of Nick's muscular hands on his thighs. Ashley looked up at Nick's face and his boyfriend gave him a wink as if to say that he was enjoying this as much as he was. "C'mon y'all let's go dance," AJ declared All of the boys went out on the floor and truly rocked the house that night. The only time they had some sort of trouble with the crowd was when one of their songs came on, which seemed to make something click in the crowd's head that these familiar faces now had a name. After hours of having fun and dancing and putting down drinks like only two young adults could, the two boys were ready to go home. Nick being 21 and Ashley a young age of 20, these were still kids that needed to let go and party sometimes, but after the concert and the club these boys were tired. The elevator rung and the doors opened. Everyone stumbled to their rooms and Ashley followed Nick into his room only because it was closer and he was too tired to make it to his room at the end of the hall so it made the decision of whose room to sleep in easier. As Ashley stepped into the room Nick closed the door and immediately threw Ashley down on the bed. Straddling him Nick began to kiss his boyfriend very deeply while rubbing his crotch very strongly against Ashley's. Nick increased the speed as he dryfucked Ashley as hard as he could. Nick wanted his boyfriend as hard as he could get him. "I still have to take care of you." Nick said with a sly grin on his face. "It was such a long day...I almost forgot. You're too good to me Nick. What a way to end the day." Ashley said through moans as he was enjoying Nick's hard dick rubbing against his through both of their pants. Nick backed off and unbuckled Ashley's pants and ripped them off-boxers and all. He slowed down his pace after this and whispered in Ashley's ear "Try and relax...I'm gonna take care of you." "I trust you Nicky" Ashley said Nick began to kiss the insides of Ashley's thighs very slowly and then started to lick them with his tongue. He slowly worked his way down to Ashley's pubic area. Nick got down on his stomach while lifting Ashley's body up just a little with his shoulders. He began to kiss the area between Ashley's balls and his hole. Nick then worked his way down all the way to his hole and flicked his tongue at Ashley's pink virgin entrance. Ashley jumped with a start at first but then slowly gave into Nick's tongue. Ashley was enjoying it so much that he started to jack himself off as he worked feverishly on his 7 inch cut meat. Nick began to go all out and Ashley couldn't take much more as the feelings of Nick tossing his salad took over his body. "Oh...Oh...Oh...yeah Nick mhhhhh yeah" Ashley began to pant. Nick continued his onslaught on Ashley's hole and it only took a few more jerks before Ashley screamed out loudly and unloaded his seed onto his stomach. After Ashley had calmed down, Nick got up and began to lick the cum off of Ashley's stomach. After Ashley was completely clean, Nick reached for the light to shut it off. Nick kicked of his jeans and pulled the covers over the two lovers. Ashley didn't mind that he was in just his shirt. He was extremely tired and the good feelings of what he had just experienced with Nick was not going to be ruined. Ashley lay on his back and Nick gave him a kiss good night on the lips and then rested his head on his chest. The feeling of Ashley playing with Nick's hair put both him and Nick to sleep. The North Carolina night engulfed them and mostly all of the boys were sleeping due to the tiring day and night but there was one person that was wide-awake. It was not his first sleepless night. He sat outside his door staring at Nick's room, his dreadlocks falling over his face. Jacob Underwood, once best friend of Ashley Parker Angel was feeling threatened of losing a friendship. He knew Nick was a great guy and he wanted to accept the relationship as best he could but he needed to tell Ashley how he felt about a friendship that seems to be drifting. There were some other feelings that Jacob was having trouble dealing with and he wasn't sure what to do. "I need to talk to him..." Jacob said as he let out a sigh and walked back into his room.
