If you are under 18 or not of legal age in your country, please do not read
on. If you couldn't accept themes of homosexuality and the like, please
don't read on. This is a story concerning gay males having intimate
relationships and is considered FOR ADULTS ONLY due to its sexual theme and
contents. BUT if you really like this stuff, please don't tell others.

Everything in this story is purely FICTIONAL. Or in simpler terms, it's not
true!!! Even if this story involves the Backstreet Boys, NSYNC and other
famous celebrities all that happen in here is fictional... again, it's not
true. If there are instances that it is similar to what happened in the
real world, it doesn't mean that it's really true. I don't know anything
about their sexuality, as far as the I and the world know, they're straight
as an arrow so I dunno if they are gay (but I do have my speculations) or
not but I wrote this out of freedom of speech and my love for these guys
and slash fiction. I don't own or know the Backstreet Boys, NSYNC or other
cited celebrity in the story personally. AGAIN, it's NOT TRUE!!! But don't
we all hope that it's true... hehehehe...

Chapter 31

We found Alex sitting on the sofa with a scowl plastered on his face. Were
we that long? I know that it was just a few minutes that passed. Maybe he's
just anxious.

"Took you long enough." He said. "Come on! We're gonna be late." He
hurriedly walked out of the house carrying his own luggage. Brian and I
looked at each other and giggled. Alex was just acting like a crazed fan to
see his favorite artist.

There was already a cab waiting outside and Alex was inside already glaring
at us. We placed our bags in the back compartment of the cab and stepped
inside. "You should relax." I told Alex as I squeezed his arm once I sat
beside Alex.

Alex just rolled his eyes. "To the airport please." He instructed the
driver of the cab and we drove off.

The trip to the airport wasn't very long and I'm not really worried of
being late because we have around an hour more to go before our flight gets
called. We have a lot of time to burn. We arrived in the airport at 10:10am
and we carried our things so that it can be checked and tagged. After all
the things that have transpired in this country, I think everyone now is
more cautious.

Brian wasn't recognized in the airport and I'm really thankful for
that. Brian's popularity is his and I really can't cope with all the people
who want to follow you wherever you go. Good thing that I didn't pursue
that same path years ago. The thought of it just sends shudders in my mind.

We were directed to the first class section of the plane. I really didn't
want the first class thing but what can I do when I'm with Alex and Brian
who seem to want these kinds of luxuries. Once seated in our places, we
buckled up and relaxed a bit as we wait for the ride to be start and to end
eventually. "Are you excited?" Brian inquired.

"I am. Like I said, I really want to work with NSYNC. They seem to be a
talented bunch." I told him. "But I'll still work for you guys. Especially
you for both public and private ways." I added in a whisper with a
grin. Brian just smiled.

I tried to stay awake for the flight but I eventually fell asleep. The next
thing I knew, Brian was nudging me. "We're here." Brian said. I yawned and
stretched my body trying to shake off the sleepiness. It was like I just
fell asleep. I unbuckled my seatbelt and followed Brian who was already
walking away but in a slow pace.

"Do you know who'll fetch us?" I asked Alex who stopped walking. "Don't
tell me you don't know?"

"Um, I don't know." Alex said nervously. I glared at him. Brian just
touched me subtly and motioned me to move ahead. We walked out of the plane
and waited for our bags. This is gonna be really tough. We have no idea
who's gonna fetch us and I hope that we're not left here to fend for
ourselves or I'll really be charged with murder.

"I think I see our fetchers." Brian whispered to my ear. I looked at him
and followed his line of vision. There were two out of place guys
standing. One was wearing a white fisherman's hat while the other is
wearing a ball cap with eyeglasses. They waved at us.

"Yup, it's them." I said.

"All our bags are here." Alex told me who still acted a little somber. I
think he's still feeling a little guilty about that booboo. Well, I think
it's nice to see Alex a little controlled since he acts like a party animal
almost all the time. I nodded at him and grabbed a few of the bags while
Brian and him picked the remaining ones.

We exited the baggage area and met with our 'fetchers'. I'm positive that
one of the two was Nick because I saw him already in that disguise. The
identity of the guy in the fisherman's hat still baffles me though. Once we
were a few meters away, I learned that it was JC. They walked to us and
gave us a hug once we were close. "Let's save all the other pleasantries
later on. Justin is waiting in the car and I'm not really comfortable
staying at public places so long." JC told us once I hugged him.

JC took one of my bags even if I protested but he just walked away. I
shrugged and followed suit. We walked to a green Toyota whose model is
unknown to me. I'm not really into cars. Justin was sitting in the driver's
seat as he bobbed his head. I think he's listening to the radio so he
didn't really notice our arrival. When JC opened one of the doors, Justin
was surprised.

"You scared the shit out of me!" He exclaimed as he held his chest. Once he
saw the three of us, he broke to a grin. "Finally! I haven't seen you two."
He said. Hot in Herre was blaring in the radio. "Oh, you must be Alex."
Justin exclaimed. He seems to be a bucketful of energy today. "You're
cute." He pointed at Alex who just blushed.

"Jus, please open the back compartment." JC said lovingly to Justin who
opened it immediately. We placed our bags in the back and once all of them
are there, we closed it and entered the car. "How have you been?" JC asked
who sat beside Justin.

"We're all good." I answered. Brian's hand found mine and held my hand as
we moved out of the parking area. "How about you three?" I asked. I
squirmed uncomfortably. Alex, Brian, Nick and I were at the backseat of the
car. It was really uncomfortable because of Nick's large frame.

"Sorry for the small car but it's the only one available." Justin
apologized as he took a sharp turn. Mental note, never ride a Justin driven
car again in your life. Justin isn't really a bad driver but he's not good
too. He just drives so fast. I think I left my stomach in the
airport. "We've been cool and dandy." He said. "Oh yeah, we haven't shopped
for ages and I'm so tired of Nick already as my shopping partner." Justin
said jokingly but he still got a slap at the head from Nick.

"Sure! I haven't shopped for ages." I told him excitedly that made JC and
Brian groan at the same time. I just rolled my eyes. "Oh yeah, I haven't
formally introduced you to my brother. JC, Justin, this is Alex. Alex, I
think you know them." I introduced them to each other.

"Hi." Alex said shyly.

"Don't act so shy. It's not your character." I told Alex who just glared at
me.

"Mart is right. We're just normal people. You lasted with the Backstreet
Boys, I think you'll last with NSYNC too." JC said with a smile. "And we're
the better batch."

"Hey!" Nick and Brian said at the same time. Alex and I can't help not to
laugh. They were glaring at JC like 5-year old kids whose toys were stolen
by a meanie.

"You know you'll always be number one for me." I told Brian whose frown
turned into a smile to me and he gave me a kiss at the lips. The others
were making gagging noises as the two of us kissed. Payback is gonna be
really a bitch for these guys.

We all shared more stories as our trip went on. I don't know how long we
stayed in the car but we were really enjoying it even if the four of us
were crammed at the back. The company was still good. Even Alex was
relaxing a bit with the guys and he just adds bits and stuff that he knows,
especially when it comes to me. "Did you know that Marty got suspended for
a week in school?" Alex asked them.

"Really?" They all said at the same time. Even Brian... traitor.

"I think it was in his sophomore year and he placed ants on the teacher's
chair. So when the teacher sat, the ants bit her and she was jumping up and
down in front of the class which made the class roar in laughter." Alex
narrated as I tried to blend in to the seat with embarrassment. Well, the
guys just laughed at that. It was my life way way back before all the drama
that happened in my life but nevertheless, I'm here now with my new family
and the best boyfriend in the world, Brian.

The car slowed down to a halt and we were in front of the Holiday Inn. I
guess this is where they're staying at the moment. We all piled out of the
back and tried to shake away a few kinks in our body because of the fact
that we were cramped at the back. While stretching, I looked around and I
was surprised that there were no prepubescent screaming fans. "No fans?" I
asked them confused.

"Decoyed them to another hotel." Justin told me. The BSB people also do
that especially if they want peace and quiet for a while but it won't be
long coz one way or another, they'll eventually find them here. I don't
know how but my hunch is that they have a six sense about finding their
favorite "future husbands."

The bellboys rush to the car and they were the ones who took care of the
bags that we had. One of the perks of being around these kind of people,
VIP treatment. We all walked inside the hotel to the lobby. "Your key is
just in the front desk. I took one for each of you." JC said. One for us?
"Just to not bring any rumors." JC whispered to me. I nodded. Well, this is
one of the disadvantages... constant hiding.

JC walked to the front desk to get the keys to the rooms that he
received. "Want to shop later?" Justin asked. His eyes were sparkling with
excitement.

"I think I'll pass this time." I replied. The happy mood that Justin had
was suddenly turned into a sour one with an exaggerated pout on his
face. "Ju, I'm so tired with all the traveling. I've been flying a lot for
the past few days and I think I'm gonna rest up first and have some
cuddling time." I looked at Brian who immediately had a smile on his face.

JC signaled at us and wiggled the keys. We all walked to the elevator to
finally go to our room. Honestly, I'm really tired. Maybe the excessive
traveling has finally caught up with me. And I still have to work on the
details of the NSYNC tour. That's another burden that I have to
shoulder. Well, maybe after my nap I can work on it then.

"Everything good in the ménage a trois?" I asked as I laid my head on
Brian's shoulder to fill in the silence that settled in the elevator.

"Better than ever." Nick answered as he gave JC a chaste kiss at the lips
and after that, he gave Justin a kiss too. It's weird to see a
threesome. It is taboo but who am I to judge if I see that there's love in
there? I think they're really happy with their relationship. Maybe
something unconventional but special. JC was leaning at Nick's chest as he
held Justin's hand whose head is on Nick's shoulder. I think AJ is making
gagging noises by now if he's in the elevator. Weirdly, Alex was still
quiet.

Finally, the door opened and we walked to our respective rooms. Our bags
are not yet here so I still can't be all lovey dovey with Brian. "Martin,
you'll meet with our managers tomorrow for the papers and everything. Maybe
around 10ish?" JC told me. I just nodded.

After a few minutes, the elevator doors opened and two porters brought our
bags. We thank them and even with my protests, JC gave them tips. JC has
been very generous already and I think it's reaching the point of 'too
much' already.

I walked to my room to place my computer things that I'm gonna used. The
bag that carried my clothes are gonna be in Brian's room. I think I'm
finding an advantage with having two rooms. I can work in my room and play
in Brian's room. When I entered Brian's room, he was already laying on the
bed clad only with boxers. His bags were neatly stacked at the side of the
bed. I think he's tired too. I placed my bags beside his and stripped down
to my boxers as well.

Once I laid my tired body on the bed, Brian spooned me. "I love you." Brian
whispered. I turned around and faced him. His eyes were staring directly at
me.

"I love you too." I said and kissed him. I arranged myself until I'm
nuzzled closer to him and drifted to a dreamless peaceful sleep.

I dunno why but I woke up very early -- the sun hasn't risen yet. I think
it was 4:00am or something. I blame it to jetlag. I guess it finally caught
up with me. I looked at the sleeping form of Brian who has this small
smile. I guess he's happy. Well, I am happy as well.

I carefully stepped out of the bed fearing that I might wake up
Brian. Sometimes, he's a heavy sleeper but sometimes he's a light sleeper
as well so I really have to be cautious because he's gonna bitch me since
it's so early. I walked out of our room and went into mine to gather my
things that I'll use for the NSYNC tour. I need my keyboard and laptop. I
still have to work in this tour.

Once I have them, I closed the door and went into Brian's suite once
again. He's still asleep hugging the pillow that I slept on. Isn't that
sweet? Anyway, I sat on the couch and attached the keyboard, laptop and my
earphones to make it as quiet as possible. I placed the Celebrity album of
NSYNC in the CD drive and listened to it to have a feel on their
music. Even if I have listened to it countless times, I did that out of
leisure and now, this is because of business. So, I have to be more
critical about everything. I selected 5 songs that I'm gonna start with, Up
Against the Wall, Pop, The Game Is Over, Do Your Thing and
Selfish. Hopefully, I can present this to the guys later on.

For the next hours or so, I laid down the tracks of the 5 songs and tried
to look for the appropriate sound for it. It's harder than I thought or
maybe I'm losing my touch. I don't know how long I've been there because I
snapped out of my world when I felt a hand on my shoulder that made me
jump. I removed the earphones from my ears and smiled at the person behind
me. "Good morning." I said.

"Good morning to you too." Brian answered me and gave me a light kiss. "Why
are you awake in this ungodly hour?" He asked. His southern accent was so
evident and I have to inwardly smile about that. I looked outside and the
sun has already risen.

"What time is it?" I asked.

"8:40am." He answered. And this is still ungodly?

"Good thing I didn't wake you when I woke up." I chuckled a little bit. He
raised his eyebrow. "I woke up around 4am."

"Thank God or I could have killed you." He answered me with a grin. "Why
are you awake at 4?" He asked as he sat beside me and placed his head on my
shoulder. I like it when Brian was like this. It's this moment when he
turns all sugary with me. He's like a cat that wants to be pet by his
master.

"Well, I need to work." I told him. I unplugged the earphones from the
laptop so Brian can hear what I have arranged. The melody of "Pop" filled
our room. It was a little bit similar to the original track that BT
produced but I added some more instruments making it louder and "clubby."

"This is great." He commented and he sang a line or two of the song. I just
looked at him with a grin. "Hey, it's catchy." He said defensively.

"Okay, enough of this." I said shutting off my laptop. I dunno how Brian
and I will be together today coz I'm gonna spend my time doing my job here
in the NSYNC tour. The phone began to ring. Brian unhooked himself from me
and walked to the phone to answer it.

"Hello." He answered. "Okay, thanks." Brian returned the handset to its
cradle. "That was Justin. We're having breakfast in Lance's room, two rooms
to the left from ours." He told me. I nodded and picked myself off the
couch. I grabbed my laptop as well and grabbed Brian's waiting hands and we
walked out of our room to breakfast to finally start the day.
