Any situation that may come up within my chapters are not nor probablly wont be true. I know I get my hopes up to :( on with the next segment! Chapter 1-2 Meeting Today was the day the boy band 98 degrees would be coming to my house. I was excited and nervous as hell as I ran around my small house straightening and organizing. I wouldn't call myself a neat freak, but a very gorgeous, sexy, celebrity was coming to my house, I couldn't let them see it in a complete mess. I grabbed a brush from the "cat cabinet" and began brushing my calico, short hair, cat Jasper. When his fur was shining I cleaned his bowls and put fresh food and water in them both, "If you knock these over so help me I'll kill you," I warned him. He had a wonderful habit of making huge messes and I wasn't going to give him the chance this time. I wanted to put him outside for today but...being the softy I was I didn't have the heart. I checked the clock, almost 11 a.m. I should have enough time to take a shower and get ready before Tim came. Tim is a very dear friend to me, the only guy that knows I'm gay and even though he wasn't gay, he was totally cool with it. He was bringing over a few groceries since I was cleaning and wouldn't have time to go shopping today. As I undressed in my bathroom I looked at myself in the mirror, my short, black hair stuck out every which way and I had a sheen of sweat on my forehead,"Easy Josh, they aren't even here yet and your already killing yourself." I felt the scruff on my chin, "You my friend need a shave," I said to my reflection, he only smiled back and nodded in agreement. I flexed my muscles in my chest and worked my abbs, I wasn't that bad looking, somewhere between sexy and cute and not any where near shabby as bodies go. I worked out often and it showed, I was in great condition. My blue eyes looked tired but still very cheerful, I began to hum and dance slightly. Jasper came to the bathroom door and looked up at me, "Meorrrr?" "All I need is you!!" I said pointing at him. I took off my sweat pants and boxers and adjusted the water. When the temp was comfortable for me I jumped in and grabbed the soap. I lathered up my chest and abbs and let the semi hot water relax my muscles and wash the soap away. I washed my legs and arms, paying special attention to my pits and ass crack and rinsed off the lather of soap. I grabbed my soft cock in my hand and stroked it to its full six and a half inches. I soaped up my balls and massaged the soap into them, I was getting a bit into it and rememered that I had things to do still. I rinsed my balls and cock off and washed my hair in my herbal essence shampoo, and for Jasper's pleasure did the whole orgasming, screaming, moaning, thing. I rinsed the shampoo from my hair and turned off the water. As I grabbed a towel and began drying off Jasper walks in with water all over the front of his paws, he had obviously spilled is water bowl. "DAMN YOU JASPER!!" He took off running through the house meowing being very pleased with himself. "Why can't I have a dog? No be a cat person and have them walk all over you." I made faces in the mirror as I shaved and made painful ones when I put on the aftershave. I brushed my teeth and rinsed with listerine, 30 seconds twice a day ya know, and went to my bedroom. I already had my clothes picked out for today, a snug fitting, tan, pull over, thin, sweat shirt to show off my upper body and my dark blue tight jeans to show off my package, these were hanging in my closet on clothes racks. I put on a fresh pair of jockey briefs and a new pair of white half calve socks when the doorbell rang. "Tim, you have such wonderful timing, you get to see me in my undies." I ran through the house and stopped at the mess Jasper left for me in the kitchen, dry cat food was all over the floor and a large puddle of water was slowly creeping across the floor. Jasper how ever thought this was so fucking funny, he sat near the stove batting a piece of food around the floor. "Just you wait!! Next week you get to go to the vet, I'll have him nueter you!" The doorbell rang again drawing my attention from Jasper, I went to the large wooden door and unlocked it, I twisted the door knob and swung it open, "Tim, its about time you got............" That's all I could get out as all four of the guys from 98 degrees stood on my porch smiling and reddening as I stood there in my undies. Jeff, smiling, came up to me and patted me on the shoulder, "Its ok Josh, Nick usually runs around in his undies when its just us, so don't be ashamed or anything." Don't be ashamed......no I wasn't ashamed......just totally embarrassed as hell! I could feel my blush burning from my face and then down at my toes where I thought they'd explode. Jeff's hand never left my shoulder and our eyes never pulled away, I was locked onto those gorgeous orbs and the sexy smile. "Uhm.....you guys have a seat....make yourselves at home. I'll just go put some clothes on. There's stuff in the kitchen so help yourselves." I walked calmly from the room and when I was out of sight I ran to my room and threw on my clothes. >From Nick's perspective: "Man is he fucking hot or what? Did you see that ass?" "I know, too bad he likes Jeff, did you see the way he was locked onto him? Damn Jeff you always get the sexy ones," Dru chimed in. "I'm glad I'm not gay, but he seemed pretty cool, go for it Jeff," Justin said. The guys walked to the kitchen door way to be met by Jasper. Jasper wasn't very good with strangers and usually bolted into my room and hid under my bed or in the closet. He arched his back and hissed, he brustled out his fur and lay his ears back. "Woa now, we are friends we wont hurt you big fella," Jeff was trying to make peace but Jasper was trapped in the kitchen and had no place to run and hide, his only option was to fight to the death. He pulled up into a huge ball of fur, his eyes large and daring anyone to touch him, a deep, raspy growl came from his throat and he hissed loudly. "Uhm maybe we should back off guys. I'm not that hungry any ways are you?" "Hell yea...I'm starving. Come on you guys are you going to let a cat stand in your way? Come on he wont hurt us," Nick said as he walked bravely into the kitchen towards the fridge. Jasper seemed to be growing bigger and his growling and hissing was becoming louder. In my bedroom: I was just gelling my hair and giving myself the once over when I heard a scream and a thud and lots more screaming coming from the kitchen. I ran through the house to the kitchen, Nick was laying under the table holding his face and the other guys were on the counter top and in chairs. "Something wrong guys?" Everyone pointed to a corner of the kitchen, I smiled and went over to Jasper. He growled at me as I reached for him. "Oh shut up, your still gonna get it for making that mess." I grabbed him around the chest and picked him up, his heart was thudding into my chest and his eyes were still big. "Nick you ok? Sorry guys I forgot to tell you about Jasper." "I'm fine, I wasn't scared or anything." I frowned when I saw a dark red line across Nick's right cheek and a trickle of blood running from it. "Jasper you dumbass, you hurt Nick. Go apologize to him." I sat Jasper on the floor and just as I thought he ran through the house to my bedroom. "Sorry about that guys, he really is a sweet cat just not good with people he doesn't know. Nick let me get you a bandage and some alcohol." I went to the cupboard and got everything I needed and sat Nick down in a chair. The guys crowded around us like Nick's cat scratch was a huge slash and Nick had a very slim chance of even surviving, the looks on their faces was priceless. "This will sting," I warned as I put an alcohol soaked paper towel over the cut and gently wiped it. Nick bellowed like a cow and I grabbed his head in my hands and put my lips almost to his face and gently blew on it. I put a bandaid on it and looked around at all the worry stricken faces. "He'll live," I said in my best doctor voice. "Wow that was totally hot!" Dru said but then blushed really red and looked away at something on the wall. I looked at him funny, "What was Dru?" His face got even redder and he just stammerred, "Nnnothing." I looked at the other guys and they all had found things to look at around the kitchen. "Ok then, you guys hungry? I got fixings for sandwiches and just about everything else. We could order a pizza or some take out. Its your all's choice. I'm buying." This got lots of No ways and We'll pay for its. Jeff puts his arm around my shoulder and leaned in close to my ear, the blush in my face was already burning. "Do you think we could stay here and let the guys go get pizza?" My eyes must have popped out of my head cause the guys chuckled and when I talked my voice cracked, "Sure if that's ok with them." Jeff and I stood on the porch as the other 3 guys got in a dark green van with tinted windows. As they pulled out of my drive way I felt a hand touch my shoulder. I looked at Jeff and he was smiling I smiled back and we walked back in the house. "So you gonna show me your place or what?" I was a bit nervous and began thinking if I had cleaned every room or not, "Sure follow me." I walked through the house, showing every room and telling about it and a few memories I thought I'd share. Not once did Jeff look bored but looked me in the eyes and had a slight smile on his face, he listened to everything like I was so amazing he didn't want to miss a word of it. My room was last on the tour, as I turned on the light Jasper growled from under the bed. "Jasper can it for pete's sake. This is my room, the nuclear war site of the new millenium." I poked some dirty clothes with my foot and wondered how long they had been there. "This is a very cool room, so lived in. What cd's you have?" He asked as he flopped down on my bed and was looking around. "I don't listen to music very often, just in the car. Sometimes I'll pop in a classical tape but that's about it." "No way! How'd you get to be such a 98 degrees fan then?" "I'm not a 98 degrees fan, just a Jeff Timmons fan," I blushed and Jeff gave me another killer smile, damn was I good at hiding my emotions or what? We spent the entire afternoon together, talking about this and that, played my N64, we even found things we had in common like we were both Tauruses. he discovered my blue eyes and almost scared me to death, we were in a conversation about our familes when he grabs my head and stares into my eyes and smiles, "You have blue eyes to!" "Yep, have ever since I was born." We laughed and continued talking. Jasper even came out from under the bed and was getting to know Jeff and was liking him almost as much as I was. The guys hadn't returned yet and I was getting a bit worried, maybe they had gotten lost or something. "Hey Josh, can I ask you a question?" "Sure I guess." "Its a bit personal." "I don't mind, ask it." "Are you gay?" "What do you want the answer to be?" Jeff blushed but never took his eyes from me. Jasper looked from one of us to the other he was wanting a reply to so he snapped Jeff from his trance, "MEWORRRRR!!" Jeff smiled and rubbed Jasper's ears, "I was hoping you'd say you were, because I think your the sexiest guy I've ever seen and I woud love to be with you." I literrally fell to the floor, right off my bed and thump! right on the floor. Jeff's head appeared over the edge of the bed, "You ok? I hope I didn't offend you. OH God your not gay are you? Damnit I messed that up, please forgive me. I honestly didn't know but just had to ask, your so hot and wonderful to be around I just..." I stood up and smiled, I looked into those blue eyes of his and grinned a full faced smile. "Yea I'm gay.......this...this all has to be a dream." Jeff got up and pulled me into his strong arms and hugged me tight. I thought he was crying but wasn't sure, "Josh......I want you to know.......I'm falling in love with you." If he hadn't had a hold of me I would have hit the floor again. I hugged back and kissed his neck softly, "I think we should talk then." >From behind us a group "AWWWWWWW" was cheerfully said. I turned around to see the other guys, they all had huge dopy grins on their faces then they began singing, "Jeff and Josh sittin in a tree, K I S S I N G" and made kissy lips and noises. I blushed and Jeff just smiled, "Got any trees around here?" That shut the others up and they retreated back to the kitchen for pizza. "You hungry?" "Not very, my whole body is excited and pelicans are fighting in my stomach. Is this for real Jeff? I mean your not bull shitting with me? Your really gay?" Jeff laughed," Yes Josh I'm gay, everyone in the group is except Justin, although we all think he's bi. Come on lets go get some pizza before they eat it all we can talk later." He walked from my room with Jasper on his heels, I stood there like I was just waking up from a huge dream. His head popped back into the door, "Coming?" "Yea," my feet began to move and soon my hand was is in his and we walked to the kitchen. The guys parted and made room for Jeff and I. Jeff sat next to me and all through eating everyone kept giving us little glances and smiling. After we ate we sat around the living room drinking our cokes and having a who can belch the loudest contest. Justin won, on accident he said, tell that to the rafters after he loosened them! Then we just sat there and looked at each other, the guys looked at pictures on the walls and at everything in arms reach was picked up and fully examined before being put back only to be snatched by one of the other guys. It was fitting because when we walked into the living room the other guys took all the seat except the loveseat, so Jeff and I had to sit there, which didn't bother me any. "You guys are sure boring, don't you do anything for fun?" They all sat there then Dru smiled, "I saw you had a basketball goal in your driveway, wanna play some hoops?" The other guys agreed and all looked at me for my answer. "I'm not much a sport's person guys. I'm not good at them and they don't interest me any. " I felt Jeff's hand on my leg and I met his eyes as I faced him, his eyes begged me to join, "You can be on my team, please?" "Yea, and I'll be on your guy's team to!" Dru said. "Ok then, I guess I'm out numbered. But be warned, we'll lose if you guys aren't good." We got up and marched outside to the ball goal. It was a bit chilly but the sun was shining and it was a clear and beautiful day. I wondered where the ball was and we looked for 30 minutes before Nick found it under the porch steps. The game began, I took my place under the basket and more or less cheered for my team. Jeff had the ball and Nick was guarding him, Justin had Dru away from everyone else....I was wide open. Jeff throws me the ball and I catch it. I look around and then aim it and I throw it towards the basket. It does one of those goes all the way around the rim 4 times things. We all gathered under it ready to rebound for our team and it stops and falls in the basket. I jump up and down and yell like an idiot and do a few, "In your face!"s, and run around the court. I look at the other guys and they are giving me this look like I sprouted antlers, "What? I don't make many baskets and when I was in gym no one ever passed me the ball. So stop ruining my moment of glory." Jeffs calls a breif 98 degrees only huddle and when they come out the all aurround me smiling. Of course I get scared and nervous and they all jump me and pick me up and put me on Jeff's shoulders. Then they start chanting, "Josh's number one!" I laugh and they put me down, "Thanks guys, your pretty cool." Then a red car pulls up and I wave to Tim as he gets out then laugh as his jaw hits the dirt and he points at the guys. "Need help with the groceries? Nick Justin, help the guy out will ya?" "Sure thing," they both rush over to Tim and pat him on the back as they grab the bags of groceries and head for the house. Tim walks over to me and looks at Dru and Jeff, "Tim, meet Jeff and Dru from 98 degrees." Tim's eyes roll back in his head and he hits the ground, "Does he do that often," Dru asked as he helped sit him up and began lightly smacking Tim's face. "Only when he meets a pair of sexy studs." Dru's eyes lit up, "Is he gay to?" "Sorry Dru but he isn't, he just doesn't meet celebs very often." The look on Dru's face pulled at my heart, I kneeled beside him and hugged him softly, "You'll find someone Dru, just gotta look. Or enter cereal box contests." He smiled at this and we turned our attention to Tim who was still out like a light. Email comments or suggestions to jp6996pj@yahoo.com thanks everyone!!!
