You have been looking pretty down lately, what's the matter?" Lance asked. "Nothing, I just want to get this tour started and hopefully get it done, I need a vacation!" Josh screamed as he walked away. "Damn! I didn't mean to upset you more." Lance said as he walked in the opposite direction. * Jive Building - Sean's Office - 30 Minutes Later* "Sean so everything is taken care of?" Johnny asked. "Yeah, BSB and N Sync are ready to hit the road. I also get PassionFly off to a start with their new record and so far in the last three days, it seems like a lot has been accomplished with them." Sean stated to Johnny. "Well you make sure there is no trouble with this tour, and if you have any problems that you can't handle alone, you let me know." Johnny said as he shook Sean's hand and walked out of his office. "Let me call Joey and see if he's ready to hit the road, I bet he is busy eating something." Sean said as he was waiting for Joey to answer his phone. Sean stood there waiting for Joey to answer the phone when he heard the faint sound of a phone ringing in his office. He looked around, but he couldn't find the sound. He continued looking with no luck. As he was about to open the closet door in his office, the door opened and out stepped Joey. "What are you doing in there. I know you are gay, but there is no reason for you to be in the closet with me." Sean laughed as Joey grabbed him and pulled him into a hug and kiss. "Ha Ha, real funny. I was waiting for Johnny to leave so I can kiss my man before we get around all the guys on the bus. I don't want to upset Lance, it seems when he sees me or Chris, he gets this look in his eye that he wants to kill us or something. So I will try to hold all my kissing until we are in private." Joey said as he gave Sean another kiss. "He still has problems dealing with you two? He might need some counseling or something so he can learn to cope. He has to spend the next six months on tour with you guys and a month in Australia, I don't think he's going to be very happy all that time trying to pretend he is okay with everything." Sean stated. "Brandon, don't you worry yourself about Lance and his problems. Lance has been this way for a long time and well I don't care anymore, I have you and I am going to enjoy my time with you for as long as you let me." Joey stated as he kissed Sean again. "There you two are, I have been looking for you for a while." Chris stated as he walked in and grabbed both Sean and Joey and started dragging them towards the door. "What are you doing Chris? Let go of my collar." Sean laughed. "You two are holding up the tour bus from leaving. You said you were riding with us Sean so you got to get a move on." Chris stated. "You all can't be waiting on little ole me. I put my stuff on the tour bus last night when the buses arrived. So it must be Joseph here that is holding you up, he was too busy hiding in "the closet" to finish getting ready." Sean said as he and Chris started laughing. "Laugh all you want guys, but I got what I wanted when I got out of the closet." Joey said as he pinched Sean's ass and walked away. "Owww! I am gonna pay you back for that later Mr. Fatone!" Sean yelled. "I hope you do, give me something to think about until the next stop." Joey said as they exited the Jive Building approaching the tour bus. "Sean can I speak to you for a minute alone? I have something to say and I think now is the time I need to say it." Chris said as he and Sean stepped over behind the tour bus. "Is everything okay? Is there a problem with you and Brian? Is there something you needed to do before the tour? What's wrong?" Sean asked. "Hey, Hey, slow down, it's none of that. I just wanted to tell you that I am happy that you and Joey are together and I also wanted to say that if you hurt Joey in any way, I will hunt you down and pull your dick off. Joey is one of my best friends and I don't want to see him hurt and down again." Chris stated. "I have no intentions of hurting Joey in any way, so far I like him, I like him alot and I hope that turns into something more." Sean stated as Chris looked him in the eye then stepped back. "Okay...I guess I can accept that answer for now, but let it be known that I am watching you until I am satisfied that your intentions are real and true. I want you to be part of our little family and I want all of us, including Lance to be happy, so just don't hurt the big ole freak." Chris said as he gave Sean a hug and they continued walking around to the bus entrance. * Tour Bus - 5 Hours Later * "Hey handsome, hiya doing? Looks like you can use a friend." Joey said as he walked over to JC. "Hey Joey what's up?" JC asked. "I was about to ask you the same thing? You have been sitting around here looking down since we left Orlando, what's wrong J?" Joey asked. "Joey, I don't know what's wrong. Ever since...well, I don't know what to say, where to start." JC stated. "Just start where you want to start, I am here to listen. Hopefully, I can make you feel better." Joey said as he placed his hand in JC's hand. "Well, first I have a real strong heavy crush on someone. I like this person alot, but this person doesn't like me in that way at all. I know this person likes me in a friendly way, but I am wanting more from this person. I just can't cope with my feelings for this person anymore and it's tearing me apart." JC said as he started crying on Joey's shoulder. "It's going to be okay JC, I am quite sure the person that you have a crush on is going to like you. Have you told this young lady how much you like her?" Joey asked. "No and Joey, can you keep a secret? I want you to promise me that you want tell anyone not even Sean. Do you promise Joey?" JC asked still crying. "Yeah I promise, you can tell me anything and you know it will stay between us." Joey stated as JC's sobs stopped a little bit. "Well first, the person I have a crush on is not a her, it's a he, and second the person is on this bus." JC stated while staring at Joey. "Is it me? Is it Chris?" Joey asked. "No, No it's not either of you guys, and it isn't Justin either." JC stated "So that leaves, LANCE!!!!" Joey shouted without thinking where he was at. "Shhhh!!!!!! You promised you wouldn't tell anybody. I knew you would react this way once I told you who it was." JC stated and started crying again. The two men sat there in the lounge continuing to talk not noticing Lance standing in the doorway of the room. Surprised at what he had just overheard, Lance Bass turns around and heads towards his bunk, he opens his backpack and pulls out his bible to read a few scriptures, but afterwards he sits there and cries. ========================== TO BE CONTINUED...
