Chapter 16

     "Justin..." I said. Justin still just stood there, a shocked look on
his face. Kevin walked over to Justin and shook him lightly. "Are you OK?"
Kevin asked. Justin nodded, and just stared for a few seconds.

     "So you two are...together?" He asked.

     "Yes, we are, Justin. Is that OK?" Kevin asked.

     "Yeah, no problem...um, just surprised. God, you two?" Justin asked,
still sort of shocked. His face softened and he calmed down. Kevin gave him
a few pats on the back and a smile came to his face. I was relieved that he
accepted Kevin and me. The three of us walked to the family room and joined
the others in family room. A.J. and Joey were watching TV.

     "Don't you ever do anything but watch TV?" I asked A.J.

     "Well, if you didn't have a gazillion channels, I wouldn't watch it
that much." A.J.  laughed out. Justin sat down on the couch and Kevin sat
down next to him. I sat on the floor in front of Kevin's legs.

     "What are we going to do tonight?" Joey asked, his eyes glued to the
TV.

     "Didn't I hear that someone was taking us out to dinner?" Kevin asked.

     "That's right..." Joey said, nodding. "So where do you guys want to
go?"

     "You know, I'm in the mood for something Italian." A.J. said.

     "You mean pizza isn't Italian enough?" I said. Everyone gave a small
laugh.

     "Well, you know what I mean." A.J. said.

     "How about Holly can make some more spaghetti and we just stay home."
Kevin suggested.

     "I don't think that it's fair to make Holly feed all of us." Justin
said. "Let's just go out."

     "Yeah." Joey said. "Let's ask the others when they get back." We all
agreed and just watched the TV until we heard a knock at the door. I stood
up and walked out to the door, with Bailey following me. Before we got to
the door, Bailey stopped before we reached the foyer and started barking at
the door.

     "What's wrong, big guy?" I asked him as I opened the door, revealing
Brian and Holly. Holly was holding a big, gray fuzzy cat in her arms.

     "A cat?" I asked Holly. She nodded, and stepped into the house. Brian
followed, with an armload of packages, bundles, and bags. "Got the mail."
He said as he handed me the stuff. I dropped it all on a table in the foyer
and followed the two into the living room.

     "Why'd she get a cat?" I asked Brian.

     "She didn't. I did. I got it for her, you know, a present. She was
looking at it for ages."  Brian sighed. "Don't they look cute together?"

     "Whatever, didn't she think about the dog?" I asked Brian.

     "Yeah, but she figured that they'd get along." Brian answered. We
walked into the living room, with Bailey following, and saw everyone
looking at the new cat. I rolled my eyes and took a seat next to Kevin. He
smiled when he saw the cat and pulled it into his lap. Bailey jumped onto
his lap too, and Kevin pushed him over onto mine.

     "Aren't we cute?" He asked the cat, making faces at it. I couldn't
believe that Kevin was acting this way, I'd never seen him so goofy. He
looked over at me, and I gave him a small smile. "Like the cat?" He asked
me.

     "Well, I'm not really a cat person." I said. Kevin gave me a small
pout and continued playing with the new cat. "The cat got a name?" Kevin
asked Holly.

     "I think that we should name it Casey. How `bout it?" She offered.

     "Well, it's your cat." Justin said. Holly blushed when she heard
Justin approve. She grabbed the cat from Kevin, and held it like a baby. I
picked up Bailey and then carried him out to the back yard. I looked at the
tent and thought 'Where was Nick all this time?'  I walked back into the
house, and noticed the note on the fridge.

     `Went back to the hotel, be back in the morning. N.' Was all it
said. I grabbed it and threw it into the trash. Walking back into the
living room, I heard the other guys come in.  `Well, at least we didn't
have to wait long for them to arrive,' I thought. We all gathered in the
living room, and decided on what we were to do tonight for dinner. We
decided on a vote and Brian moderated the raise of hands.

     "Well, A.J. wants Italian, and so do Justin, Kevin, Chris, the other
Chris, and Howie."  Brian said, reading the notes that he was writing.

     "Lance, J.C., me, and Holly want anything but Italian and Chinese and
Joey, doesn't care." Brian continued. "Wait a sec, where's Nick?"

     "Oh, yeah, Nick went back tot he hotel, said he'd be back in the
morning. I guess he called a cab." I said, remembering the note. Brian
nodded and continued to look at his notes. "That means that we're going to
do Italian tonight." Brian sighed. We all agreed on the decision, since it
was a vote and majority rules, right? We walked out to the cars, and got
in, deciding to go to whichever restaurant was closest. Holly knew the
directions, and went in her Durango, and the other cars followed. Kevin and
I decided to take a separate car, since we had things to talk about.

     "Do you think that we should tell them tonight?" I asked Kevin.

     "Well, Justin took it pretty well, or he's doing a good job of hiding
his feelings."  Kevin said. I glanced at the clock. It was almost seven.

     "Well, it's going to be a good a day as any to tell the rest of them."
I said. Kevin nodded and put his left hand over my right. It was the little
things that he did, that always made me smile. We arrived at the
restaurant, since it was only about five minutes away, and parked the
cars. We walked in and were seated at two tables that were next to each
other in the back of the restaurant.

     "This is going to make it a little harder, isn't it?" Kevin said.

     I nodded, "since the guys know, I think that we should sit with `N
Sync." I suggested.  Kevin and I sat down next to J.C. and Joey. When we
saw Brian and Holly, we motioned to the other table, other than that, there
really was no problem with the seating and the guys of `N Sync, ended up
sitting at the larger table with Kevin and me. A waiter came by, and handed
us our water and menus. He promised to come back in a few minutes. We all
looked over the menus and the waiter came by to take our order. Ordering
was a little weird, being tat there were a lot of the same orders for both
tables, and the waiter walked away with a confused look on his face. I
glanced over at Kevin, who looked sort of dazed, and I brought my hand to
his leg, running it along his hip to get his attention.

     `When do you think that we should tell them.' I asked softly.

     Kevin looked at me lovingly and cleared his throat. My eyes widened
when I realized that he was about to tell everyone.

     "Guys," Kevin said. "I have something to tell you all." He addressed
the whole table.  He got everyone's attention and started. "Since we're all
going on tour together, and will be spending a lot of time together..." He
said. I looked over at Justin, who was sitting there,
expressionless. Everyone was looking at Kevin, paying a great deal of
attention to what he was saying. "Well, I think that you should know that
Chris and I are a couple."  Kevin finished. Confused looks came over some
of their faces. I was scared that they wouldn't accept Kevin and I, and
realized I wasn't breathing. I had held my breath waiting for Kevin to
finish, and found myself struggling for air. I let out a sigh, and waited
for their responses.

     "So you guys are gay...right?" J.C. said. Kevin nodded and held my
hand under the table, his grip getting tighter. "Well, that's fine with
me. No problems here." J.C.  finished.

     "Me too." Lance said. Joey took a sip of his water and
nodded. "Nothing's wrong over here, right Chris?" He motioned to
Chris. "Yup, nothing wrong, you two being gay is fine with me." He said. I
looked over at Justin, who looked deep in thought, and said, "Justin, are
you OK with this?"

     "Umm...yeah, I told you I was OK with it earlier." He stuttered. I was
overcome with relief when they had no problem with it. I gripped Kevin's
hand tighter and smiled at him. He smiled back, and I realized that all
eyes were on us. "Wow, what's taking the food so long?" I asked. The guys
let out a small laugh and sat back in their chairs. I just as we all got
comfortable again, the food arrived and we stared to eat. The meal went by
uninterrupted, and for the most part uneventful.

     "I'm glad that you guys don't think less of us." I said to the guys.

     "Why would we?" Lance said. "You're still human."

     "I guess that I was just scared. Not everyone is as understanding as
you guys." I said, smiling.

     "No problem." J.C. said, patting me on the back. "Best of luck to you
two."

     "You make it sound like we're getting married." Kevin
said. J.C. shrugged and went back to talking with the other guys. After a
few more minutes, we finished our meal and Joey picked up the check,
splitting it with the other guys of `N Sync. We all packed back into the
cars, agreeing to meet up tomorrow morning at the house. The rest of us
drove home.

     "Well?" Kevin asked.

     "Well, what?" I said.

     "You think that the guys really are OK with us, or covering up?"

     "I don't care, they aren't going out with me, you are. That's what
matters." Kevin smiled and sat back in the seat, sighing with
contentment. My cell phone rang, and I grabbed it from the cup-holder
between the seats.

     "Hello?" I said into the phone. Kevin gave me a questioning look, and
I smiled at him, reassuring that everything was fine.

     "You've been enrolled in the obscene caller of the month club..." I
heard on the other end, along with some loud snickering.

     "Very funny, Julia. What's up, Holly, got a problem?"

     "Well, I need to stop off to get some stuff, so we'll get home a
little later. You and Kevin just do your thing at home, alright? Put Kevin
on." Holly said, not giving me time to respond to anything she had said. I
handed the phone to Kevin, and he took it, surprised. I heard him say,
"uh-huh," and "yeah," a few times. Then there was a "good- bye" and he hung
up the phone.

     "What did she say?" I asked Kevin.

     "Something about `doing our thing,' and `don't get anything wet.'
Nothing really important." He joked.

     "That's nice, they want us to go home and have sex. We can't let them
down, can we?" I played along.

     "Don't make promises that you can't keep." Kevin said in a seductive
tone. We arrived at home and walked inside. Bailey ran out to the foyer to
greet us, but there was no sign of Laundry. Kevin picked up Bailey and we
walked to the kitchen, where he put Bailey down and pulled me into a hug.

     "Well, we got the house to ourselves, but the cat and dog are
home. What do you want to do?" I asked Kevin.

     "This..." He said as he pulled me towards him, our lips meeting and
our heads automatically moving to the side to accommodate the position of
our lips. I felt Kevin's tongue enter my mouth and caress my own. I pulled
my hands from Kevin's back and brought them to his head, playing with his
mussed hair and pushing him in for more.  Kevin leaned down, pushing me
onto the island in the middle of the counter. I lay down as Kevin continued
kissing me and caressing my chest. "And this..." He pulled off of my lips
and brought his hands to my waist, pulling my shirt over my head. "This
too..." He said as he pulled his lips from mine and began suckling on my
collarbone. I panted loudly as Kevin nibbled and sucked the sensitive skin,
and I rubbed his strong shoulders, encouraging him. Kevin began to unbutton
my khakis, and then pulled them down to my knees. Kevin moved his lips
lower and lower on my chest, kissing and licking all the way down. He ended
up at the waistband of my Abercrombie boxers, and slowly pulled those down
around my ankles with my pants. Kevin's hands moved from around my back to
my cock, and he began to stroke my hard cock. Kevin moved back to my lips
and kissed me deeply as he continued his stroking. My hands moved from
Kevin's shoulders to his neck and slowly wrapped my arms around it. I was
in complete heaven, but I realized that the others would be home any time
now. Kevin was still stroking me, and I stopped my moaning. "Kevin..." I
panted. "Kev, please, stop..." Kevin immediately took his hands off of me
and gave me a questioning look. I held him tighter and said, "It's OK,
nothing's wrong, I just don't want to start and then have the guys come
home to stop us. We can do this later tonight, right?" A small smile came
to Kevin's face and he gave me a soft kiss on the forehead. He stepped back
a little and I stood up from the countertop. I pulled up my pants and the
both of us walked into the family room. Kevin sat down on the couch and
turned on the TV. I sat down next to Kevin and leaned over onto him. Bailey
hopped onto the couch between us and he received a few pats on the head
from Kevin. Bailey lay down and contently watched the TV with us. Kevin
wrapped an arm around me and we sat there watching nothing in particular
for a few minutes.

     Not much time went by before we heard the garage open and the guys
step inside with groceries and stuff in their arms. Holly followed holding
a bag of cat food. I walked over and grabbed it from her, setting it next
to the bag of dog food in the cabinet.

     "Have fun?" A.J. asked, laughing.

     "Oh yeah, my hand's really tired now." I said.

     A.J. playfully punched my shoulder, "Whatever, you two were probably
freaking like bunnies in here."

     "Ass." I said as I walked back over to Kevin. The others joined us in
the family room, and sat down in front of the TV.

     "It's still kind of early, what do you guys want to do?"

     "Well, it really isn't early, it's almost eleven-thirty." Holly
said. "What do you guys have to do tomorrow?"

     "Nothing really, just talk to management about the tour and working
out some of the kinks." Howie said. He continued telling everyone the
management kinks and the tour details. I felt Kevin held me closer and I
let him take my hand into his. Kevin and I still didn't know what to do
about this situation. We were taking things one obstacle at a time, and we
just jumped over the coming out to `N Sync hurdle. The tour hurdle was next
and I wasn't sure if I was going to make it over that one. "You're tired."
I heard Kevin say. I looked up at him and he gave me a small smile. "Let's
get you to bed." He said. I stood up and realized that we had been talking
for a while now and it was a quarter past midnight. I slowly walked up to
the bedroom and changed. Kevin came up after I was finished brushing my
teeth and washing my face. "Shower?" Kevin asked. "With you?  Anytime." I
replied. Kevin pulled me over to him and gave me a deep kiss as he pulled
my white tee-shirt off. Kevin pulled off his sweater and his pants and I
pulled my pajama bottoms off. We broke the kiss and Kevin turned the water
in the bathtub on. "I thought you said shower." I said to Kevin as I pulled
his boxers off. "Well, I changed my mind."  Kevin replied and picked me
up. He pulled my boxers down and carried me over to the bathtub. He slowly
put me down in the warm water and I pulled him in with me. Kevin crawled on
top of me and we began to kiss again, this time, my hands ran over his back
and sides. Kevin brought his hands to my chest and rubbed my nipples. Kevin
released my lips and began to nibble and suck on my neck. My hands ran to
his shoulders and rubbed them as Kevin continued with my sensitive neck. I
could feel Kevin's hard cock rubbing against my thigh, and my hands began
to run over his sculpted chest to his throbbing meat. I could hear Kevin
begin to moan as I caressed and rubbed his cock under the water. Kevin
moved his lips to my collarbone and I felt his goatee rubbing against the
skin of my chest. I hissed as Kevin sucked on my collarbone. I had to stop
jerking on his cock because of all the pleasure that Kevin was bringing to
my body. I relaxed in the warm water as Kevin moved back up to my lips and
his tongue ran over mine. I wrapped my legs around Kevin's body and pulled
him closer to deepen the kiss and inadvertently brining his cock to my
hole. No words were said, but both of us knew what the other wanted. I
braced myself as Kevin began to push his cock into my ass. I tensed and
grabbed Kevin's body tighter as he pushed more and more of his cock into my
hole. Kevin could sense my pain and he slowed down, stopping when half of
his thick cock was inside of me. I felt the pain lessen and Kevin started
to suckle on my collarbone again. I threw my head back in pleasure and
Kevin started to enter more of himself into me. I felt Kevin's arms loosen
around me and I knew that he was all the way inside.

     "Are you OK?" Kevin panted out, looking deep into my eyes. I brought
my hand to Kevin's cheek and pulled him down for a soft kiss. "I couldn't
be better." I smiled at him.  Kevin pulled his cock out part way and then
forced it back in. I winced in pain and held onto Kevin's muscular body for
a little support as he continued to slowly thrust more smoothly. Slowly
relaxing, I began to moan as Kevin's long cock ran in and out of my
hole. Kevin started to thrust more quickly as I loosened up. "This feels
incredible." He whispered into my ear. The water in the tub splashed out as
Kevin thrust harder and faster. I was panting and moaning uncontrollably as
Kevin continued to ram my ass. I was in absolute euphoria as his long cock
was working its magic inside of me. I was so close to cumming, but I didn't
want this to ever end. I knew that it was impossible to keep me from the
edge. Kevin had brought me so close twice already today. I pulled Kevin
into another kiss and he continued to pump inside of me. Kevin's tongue
darted in and out of my mouth in time with his fucking. Suddenly, I gripped
onto Kevin tightly, almost making his stop his thrusting as I shot my load
into the water. I was practically screaming for Kevin to go faster and he
was very obliging. The encouragement caused Kevin to pump my ass with more
force than he's ever used before. I gripped onto him as I felt my cock
getting hard again. "God...Chris, this is so good, you're ass is so tight."
Kevin moaned. He started to rub my hard cock with his hand and his other
hand wrapped around to pull me into a kiss. Kevin really liked kissing
while we made love. He brought me over the edge again as he jerked roughly
on my cock. I had came twice already, and Kevin wasn't giving up on my
hole, he was still thrusting hard and fast. After a few moments, Kevin
thrust deep and hard into me and held me on his exploding cock. "Yes!
Chris...you are so good to me..." Kevin sighed. I ran my hands over his
hair and face as he came deep within my loins. Tears came to my eyes when I
felt Kevin's cum in me. I was with the man I loved and he loved to be with
me, in every way. I loosened my grip around Kevin and he relaxed a
little. I felt the muscles in his body convulse with pleasure as he
continued to cum. I could feel the excess cum leak out of my hole and drift
off into what water remained in the tub. Kevin slowly pulled out of me,
leaving me with the biggest empty feeling inside. He then carefully got off
of me, stepped out of the tub and offered his hand. I held on to it, and he
pulled me up out of the tub to dry off. Kevin pulled me over to the bed
before we could get dressed and pushed me onto the bed, shoving his tongue
into my mouth and running his hands through my hair. My hands ran to
Kevin's semi-hard cock, which soon grew to full hardness in my hand. Kevin
rolled us over so that I was on top and I slowly lowered myself back onto
his hard cock. Kevin pulled me down to his lips and started thrusting his
hips upward, brining us into another episode of passionate lovemaking.

Chapter 17

     I woke up with a heavy down comforter on my body, and my Mickey
clutched tightly in my arms. I was incredibly tired, with all that happened
last night and the hour that I was up, it was only about eight. It was only
a few days before Kevin was going to be leaving on tour. I had an odd
feeling of loneliness and realized that Kevin wasn't in the bed next to
me. I panicked and threw the blanket off of the bed. Did Kevin already
leave?  When would I see him again? I saw all the sheets on the floor from
our escapade last night. I glanced into the bathroom. He wasn't in there. I
looked around the room and saw a note that was taped to the back of the
door. I ran over after I threw on a pair of boxers and ripped it from the
door.

     `Went to the gym, be back before lunch with the guys. If you see this,
go back to bed, it's too early. Love you lots, Kev. XO. P.S. I borrowed
your car.'

     Relieved, I walked back to the bed and lay back down, pulling the
sheets back onto my body. I just lay there, thinking of the weeks to
come. The phone rung and it startled me; I picked it up before the very
first ring ended.

     "Hello?" I said into the receiver.

     "Christopher, this is the Firm, and I would like to inform you that
you will be joining the boys on tour." The lady said on the other
side. Needless to say, I was practically screaming my head off.

      "You will be leaving a week after the tour starts, because of the `N
Sync photo shoot and their video shoot also. The plane tickets and
information are being sent immediately."

     "Thank you so much."

     "Don't thank me, thank Brian, and Kevin." She said with a slight
laugh.

     "I'll be sure to. Good-bye." I smiled and set the phone down. I threw
on the black sweater that Kevin was wearing last night. It was a little
big, but it didn't really matter. I quickly ran down the stairs, a smile
plastered on my face. I saw Brian and Holly sitting on the couch and ran
over to them, I pulled Brian into a hug and gave Holly a quick kiss on the
cheek.

     "Thank you SO much!" I told Brian, slowly calming down.

     "So it was management on the phone, right?" Brian said with the
biggest smile on his face.

     "I get to go on tour with you guys!" I screamed. Holly's face lit up
and she started to yell with me. "You lucky bastard!" She screamed.

     "I get to go with Kevin after all!" I shouted. Brian was smiling
contently and I knew that he was glad that I was happy. "Thank you so much
Brian." I said again.

     "No problem, Chris. You're like a brother now, and you did let us stay
with you, even though Nick is sleeping outside still." He laughed
out. A.J. came downstairs in his boxers and a tank top.

     "What's with all the screaming?" He said. I ran over to him and gave
him a quick hug.  "I'm going on tour with you guys!" I told him and ran
upstairs. I got showered and put on a pair of jeans and the sweater I was
already wearing. I sprayed on some cologne and fixed my hair. I finished
and ran downstairs to sit down with the guys. We waited for Kevin and Howie
to get back from the gym and talked a little about the details. Nick had
long before come out of his tent and was showering. I heard the garage door
open and immediately got off of the couch to greet Kevin. He opened the
door and I threw my arms around his neck, giving him a deep kiss. Shocked,
he dropped his workout bag on the floor, and wrapped his arms around
me. Kevin returned the kiss, and ran his hands to my head and pushed in for
a deeper kiss. Howie walked around us and gave the others a questioning
look.

     "He's going on the tour with us." Brian explained. Howie nodded and a
smile came to his face. "We're on big happy family now." He said.

     "I got to go catch a shower. Come upstairs so we can talk." Kevin
said. I followed Kevin upstairs and sat down on the bed.

     "You're wearing my sweater." He said.

     "Is that OK?" I asked him.

     "Of course it is, you look kind of sexy in my clothes." He
chuckled. Kevin peeled his shirt off of his sweaty body, revealing his
sculpted chest and abs.

     "Why'd you go to the gym?" I asked him. "Wasn't last night enough of a
workout?"

     Kevin gave a small chuckled and replied, "I had to go so I could
think. Last night was incredible, no doubt about that."

     "Glad that we think alike." I said as Kevin finished stripping and
stepped into the shower. I sat down on the counter in the bathroom and
watched Kevin shower. "So was the gym any fun?" I asked him.

     "I lifted a few weights, and ran a little, nothing big. I just had to
think about some things, us, you know?" He said as he shampooed his
hair. "Not now that you're coming on tour with me, there's really nothing
to think about." I smiled at his words and watched as he began to soap up
his muscled body.

     "Well you know that I'm not leaving until next week, right babe?" I
asked him. Kevin nodded slowly as he ran his body under the spray of
water. "Better late than never." He said. "I have some things to do with `N
Sync this week, but right after that, I'm leaving."  I told him. Kevin ran
his hand down to his cock and slowly started to jerk on it.

     "What are you doing?" I asked him.

     "What does it look like?" He joked. He started to jerk a little faster
and I could tell that he wasn't planning on stopping. I shook my head and
started to walk out of the bathroom.

     "Hey, where are you going?" He asked me.

     "I thought that I'd leave you alone." I said laughing.

     "How about if I stop now, you can help me out like you did last
night?" Kevin asked.

     "I don't think that last night will ever have a repeat performance." I
teased.

     "Well, it won't hurt to try, will it?" Kevin asked with a pout.

     "Not at all. Just get out of the shower before you get all wrinkly." I
told him. Kevin turned the water off and stepped out of the shower. He
dried off and wrapped the towel around his waist. I walked out of the
bathroom, and sat down on the bed to watch Kevin get dressed. He opened up
his suitcase and I glanced inside. He grabbed a pair of boxers and put them
on.

     Kevin said. I nodded and put them in one of my dresser drawers. Kevin
threw on a white v-neck tee-shirt and some khakis. He sat down next to me
on the bed and pushed me down so that we were side to side on the bed,
staring at the ceiling.

     "I'm going to miss you." I said.

     "Yeah, me too. Don't think about it right now. Let's just take things
one at a time.  Right now, we have to eat and then practice that song. I
have rehearsal today for the fundraiser too."

     "What time?" I asked him.

     "Around three."

     "Well, that gives us a few hours." I said. We both headed downstairs
and met the guys, who decided to make sandwiches for lunch. Holly was
writing down the `orders' and Kevin and I sat down on the sofa. Holly made
the sandwiches and handed them out to everyone. We quickly ate and Holly
pulled Kevin and I into the music room. The others went out and left us at
home to practice our trio. We practiced for about two hours, because Kevin
had to go to the rehearsal. After the music practice, Kevin and I sat down
on the piano bench with two bottles of water.

     "Good practice, guys." Holly said, taking a sip of her water.

     "Well, if you stopped yelling at us, it would have been." I joked.

     "Seriously, I think that we're almost ready for the fundraiser." Holly
said.

     "I hope so." Kevin said. "I have to go to rehearsal now you
two. Chris, you want to come? Brian will probably ask you to go, Holly."

     "Want to take my car?" I asked Kevin. He nodded and went to get his
workout bag before we left. Together, we walked out to my beamer and got
in.

     "Kevin, would you mind if I asked you to drive?" I asked him.

     "No, why? Do you want me to?" He asked.

     "Actually, yes. I do." I told him. "I feel really tired." Kevin and I
switched seats and I reclined the passenger's seat so I could lie down in
the car. Kevin felt my forehead with his palm and decided that I was
OK. Then he drove us off to the ballroom.

     "You should have gone back to sleep." Kevin said. "You were up late
last night."

     "Well, I was going to, but I saw the note and I got the call from
management." I told him, sighing.

     "Maybe you can get a little rest at the hall." Kevin said.

     "Yeah, maybe." I said. We arrived at the concert hall and Kevin pulled
his bag from the trunk. We walked together to the large room that was
already being set up with a stage at one end and tables throughout the
room. Kevin dropped his bag near the wall to the side of the stage and took
off his tee-shirt, leaving him in a white tank top. I sat on the edge of
the stage and Kevin sat down next to me after he grabbed some water for us.

     "Feel better?" Kevin asked me.

     "Not really." I said. "When are the others getting here?"

     "Anytime now, you know me, always early." Kevin joked. I saw a thin
woman walk into the hall and drop a bag by Kevin's.

     "Hey there, Kev!" She said happily.

     "Hey Fatima." Kevin said and pulled her into a little hug.

     "Who's this guy?" She asked as she offered her hand. I took it into
mine and she pulled me into a hug too.

     "I'm Chris." I told her.

     "Hey Chris. How you doing?"

     "Fine, so you're Fatima, I've heard about you." I told her.

     She blushed and playfully punched me in the shoulder. "I bet. So what
are you doing here with Kev?"

     "He's my boyfriend." Kevin whispered in her ear. She nodded and walked
over to the other guys, who just arrived with Holly.

     "Does she mind?" I asked Kevin.

     "No, I'm sure she's fine. Remember, it doesn't matter, I love you and
that's what matters, right?" Kevin asked.

     "That's all that matters." I said. Kevin gave me a soft kiss on the
forehead and we walked over to where the other guys were.

     "Hey y'all. Get up here, we got some dancing to do!" Fatima yelled
from the stage.

     "Well, I guess you guys gotta go dance now, huh?" I asked the guys.

     "Hell yeah." A.J. said. "You don't want to get Fatima mad at you,
she'll whoop your ass." I smiled at his little remark and they started to
go onto the stage, Kevin gave me another little kiss before going on stage
and me and Holly sat down on one of the tables.  The music for `All I Have
to Give' came on and the guys started their routine with Fatima yelling at
their little mistakes. I sat there watching the guys dancing and fiddling
with the ring on my finger.

     "So you and Nick made up yet?" I asked Holly, my eyes still glued on
Kevin.

     "We talked a little in the car. He said he was sorry. I don't know
what I should do."  Holly said as she looked around the room, there were no
people setting up today, but there were still things to do, tables needed
to be set, flowers needed to be put around and some other little things.

     "You should forgive him, he was drunk and plus you're going to see him
a lot in the future." I said.

     "I guess I should, but not today, I don't want to." She told me.

     "That time of month, eh?" I chuckled.

     "That's not `till next week, you know that." She laughed and punched
me in the shoulder. "So you two have fun last night? I think that some
people in the house were still awake."

     "We weren't that loud were we?" I asked, surprised.

     "You two were beyond loud." She laughed. "Stop looking at him so much,
you're making him mess up." Kevin was getting a few more yells from Fatima
than usual, but I didn't care. My eyes locked onto him, watching every move
he made. Every muscle flexing, every drop of sweat that fell from his body,
I soaked in every thing he did. Holly shook my shoulder and I swung my head
around. I must have been doing it for the entire rehearsal.

     "Stop playing with that ring." Holly said.

     "Why?" I asked. She grabbed my hand and looked at it more closely.

     "Chris and Kevin eternally, eh? Did I ever tell you that that sounds
kind of tacky?"  Holly said.

     "It sounds better in Chinese." I said. "It doesn't matter."

     Holly rolled her eyes, "Rehearsal's over in about five minutes, do you
want to get some snacks for them?" Holly asked me.

     "Where do you want to go?"

     "Well let's just go to McDonalds." Holly said. "There's one like
across the street."

     "OK, let's go. You can drive." I said and tossed her the keys. We got
us and I waved good bye to Kevin. He nodded and continued his
dancing. Holly and I went to the car and went to McDonalds.

     "About this tour, do your parent's know?" Holly asked sternly.

     "Well, I'll tell them if we go riding again, or I'll tell them at the
fundraiser." I replied.  "I think that they'll take it well, don't you?"

     "I don't know, mommy's little boy running off with his boyfriend?"
Holly said sarcastically. "I'm sure that she'll be OK with it." I thought
what she said over. My parents were usually supportive, but this was sort
of different, usually they were there to pull me out of any mess I was in,
but they couldn't be there on the road while I was with Kevin.

     "So about this house in L.A., when do you think that we're going to
get it?" Holly said, obviously changing the subject.

     "Just talk to the real estate guy, I'm sure we'll get one soon, and
then you'll have a really big job to do this summer while I'm with Kev."

     "Well I want a house, but I don't want to be living in it alone,
without you."

     "Maybe you won't have to, this whole Brian thing us getting out of
hand, you're worse than me and Kevin, at least we can keep our hands off of
each other." I said.

     "That's because you have to." Holly said.

     "That was low." I said solemnly. "You know we would if we could."

     "Then you shouldn't say things about me and Brian." Holly said as she
pulled into a parking space. We walked into the McDonalds and walked up to
the counter.

     "Two Quarter-pounder with cheese meals, Three Big-mac meals, a Chicken
Sandwich meal, and a Quarter-Pounder without cheese meal. That's with four
iced teas, two with lemon, a Coke, and a Seven-up. This is all supersized,
and to-go." Holly said. I was amazed at how she could remember all the
orders. I paid for the food and we waiter for it to arrive.

     "Do you think that the whole you and Brian thing is going to work?" I
asked Holly.

     "Why wouldn't it?" She asked. "Is it any different from you and
Kevin?"

     "Yeah, it is, because I'm not flirting with Justin." I said. Holly
glared at me, and shook her head.

     "You know what, just because you and Kevin are like a match made in
heaven, it doesn't mean that other people can't love each other,
Chris. Brian, you know he's so nice, so cute, and so sweet. But how could I
help flirting with Justin? He's all that too."

     "Do what I do." I said softly.

     "And what's that, Einstein?" She said harshly.

     "Think of your boyfriend's feeling before yours." I said. Holly turned
her head away and folded her hands. The food arrived and I grabbed most of
it.

     "Holly, I need some help here." I said. Holly turned to me, her face
was emotionless.  She grabbed the food that I couldn't pick up, and walked
silently out to the car. We got to the concert hall with all the food, and
still we hadn't said anything to each other. I put the food on the table
and everyone grabbed their food. Kevin and I sat down in a corner and
started eating.

     "You have fun at rehearsal?" I asked Kevin.

     "Well, you know it's a lot harder when my boyfriend's watching every
move I make."  Kevin laughed.

     "You noticed, huh?"

     "Every moment." Kevin said. He leaned in for a kiss, but I pushed him
away.

     "I'm eating!" I said. "Later."

     Kevin nodded. "You doing OK with Holly, she looked mad."

     "We had a little fight. Nothing we can't get through." I said. I
looked over at her, she was sitting next to Brian and A.J. she looked happy
with Brian, but she wasn't all there, she was reserved, and she seemed out
of it.

     "Did you notice anything about Justin and Holly?" I asked Kevin.

     He wiped his mouth with a napkin, "You mean how she flirts her ass off
when he's around?"

     "Yeah, do you think that Brian know?"

     "I think that he's pretending not to notice. You know he's kind of
'blinded by love,' he's just hoping that she's not really doing anything."
Kevin said. He took another bite of his Big-mac.

     "Are we like that?" I asked him, confused at Kevin's reasoning. He
shook his head.  "The only thing that I'm blinded by is you." He leaned in
for a kiss and I gladly gave him one. He pulled away, "You're right, no
kissing with food." Kevin said with a funny look of disgust on his
face. "Unless it's cheesecake, right?" We both laughed at his little joke.
"Right."

     The other guys looked over at us and gave us a look that said 'you
guys are crazy.' I took a sip of my iced tea and crunched up my burger
wrapper. I grabbed Kevin's and balled it up too. I looked over at Kevin and
gave him a small smile. I picked up the wrapper and threw it at A.J. It hit
him in the back of the head and I immediately pilled Kevin into a kiss,
wrapping my arms around him to make it look like I didn't do it. Kevin was
surprised, to say the least but played along. A.J. just shrugged it off and
continued eating. I pulled away and threw the other wad of paper at him,
this time it hit him and bounced off to hit Howie. They both turned around
and the only thing that they saw was Kevin, with my in his arms and his
tongue in my mouth. I pulled off of Kevin and laughed a little under my
breath. Kevin took his french-fry carton and chucked it over at the
table. This time, A.J. turned around, anticipating it, but it hit him in
the face. Kevin and I turned bright red and cracked up, our laughing was
uncontrollable. A.J. walked over with a cup of iced tea in his hand, ready
to pour it on the both of us. Kevin realized this and dodged A.J.'s attempt
by pushing A.J. arm back, causing A.J. to pour the tea on himself. This
only caused more laughter from me and Kevin, but that was distracting and
Brian came from behind and doused us with his cup of Coke. I ran my fingers
through my hair to get some of the soda out and reached for my iced tea. I
grabbed Brian's shirt and pulled him towards me, pouring the tea all over
his tee-shirt. Brian shuddered from the cold and soon we were all in on an
all out food fight, grabbing and tossing everything possible at each
other. I got A.J. and Howie a few times, and got hit a few times from them
too. After all the chaos, we all were laughing and soaked with soda, fries,
and everything else. We looked around and noticed the mess we had
made. Fatima shook her head and started pointing fingers, and A.J. yelled,
"Run for it!" We all grabbed our things at almost impossible speed and were
off in the cars in no time. I looked out the window and saw Fatima still at
the concert hall. Kevin and I laughed and talked all the way home.

     "I take that you're feeling better now, huh?" Kevin said.

     "Yeah, I guess the food helped, and maybe the kiss helped too."

     "Well, I guess we'll have to try that theory out next time you're not
feeling well."

     "I think I feel a pain." I joked.

     "Where?" Kevin asked. I pointed to my lip.

     "Right there." I said, Kevin smiled and leaned in for a kiss. Good
thing we were already in the garage, because someone would have seen us. We
kissed until the others opened the garage and started coming in. Kevin and
I pulled apart, "It worked, I feel so much better." I said. Kevin gave a
little laugh and we got out of the car and walked into the house.

Chapter 18

     After Kevin and I were finished showering and changed, we walked
downstairs to meet the others, to figure out what to do tonight.

     "The performance is tomorrow, I think we should get some rest." Brian
suggested.

     "Does that mean movie again?" Nick whined.

     "Whatever you guys want to do." Holly said.

     "I think that we should go clubbing again, but lets call 'N Sync,
maybe they want to come too." Howie offered.

     "Clubbing, maybe." Kevin said. "But let's not stay out to late, guys."
I was kind of hesitant towards the idea, but Kevin said that he'd stay with
me the entire time.

     "I'll go call 'N Sync." I said. I walked out of the room and went to
the kitchen. I called Lance's cell phone, and someone picked up after a few
rings.

     "Hello?" I asked.

     "Hey, who's this?" I heard.

     "This is Chris, is this Lance?"

     "No, Lance isn't here, this is Justin."

     "Oh, hey Just, I was wondering if you guys wanted to go clubbing with
us today?"

     "You into that stuff Chris?" Justin asked.

     "No, but I know that Kevin loves to do clubbing and you know, I go for
him."

     "How many times you been with him?"

     "Just once, bad stuff happened, I don't want to get into that."

     "So why are you going this time, didn't you learn anything."

     "I guess not, because I'm going again. Kev really likes going, and I
know that if I stay home, he won't go. He wants to, I can tell, but he said
that if I go, he'd take care of me."

     "That's sweet. Um, yeah, we'll be there. The five of us are going to
swing by in about half an hour, OK?" Justin said. I saw Kevin come into the
kitchen and walk towards me.

     "Yeah, I'll see you then."

     "Wait a sec, you know we have a photo shoot in a couple of days
right?"

     "Yeah, I have to go do some things at that shoot and at the video
shoot."

     "What about Kevin?"

     "He's right here, do you want to talk to him?" I asked, I looked over
at Kevin, who was getting a soda out of the fridge. He walked over to me
when he heard his name, "who is it?" Kevin asked.

     "It's Justin." I said.

     "I don't want to talk to him it's just that he's going on tour in a
few days, right?" Justin asked.

     "Yeah, that's why he's not coming tot he shoots, I think he'd go with
me if he could." I looked over at Kevin, he nodded and took a sip of is
soda.

     "Hey, I'll explain some more tonight, OK? See you then." I said.

     "Yeah, see you then. Bye." Justin said before he hung up the phone.

     "So you're coming clubbing tonight?" Kevin asked me.

     "Yeah, I'll go. Let me get changed." I walked out and Kevin followed
me upstairs.

     "You know you don't have to go, right?" Kevin asked me.

     "I know." I said, and I pulled on a pair of baggy jeans.

     "And I don't want you to go if you don't want to." Kevin said.

     "I want to, I think that I should get to know 'N Sync a little
better."

     "But you're exhausted. You can't go clubbing after you've had four
hours of sleep and an entire day."

     "I think that I can manage."

     "I just want to watch out for you."

     "And I appreciate it." I said. I grabbed a v-neck tee shirt and put it
on before giving Kevin a little kiss. I reached into the closet and grabbed
a jacket and we were walked downstairs.

     "Remember guys, we're coming back before one." Kevin said so that
everyone could hear.

     "Yes sir!" A.J. saluted.

     "That's more like it." Kevin joked.

     "When's 'N Sync getting here?" Howie asked. "I want to go as soon as
we can."

     "Any minute now." I said. I looked over at Holly, who was deep in
thought. I wonder if she told Brian yet. Together, me and Kevin walked over
to the couch and sat down.

     "When 'N Sync gets here, are we taking two cars or just one?" Holly
asked.

     "I think we should take one, so we don't have to worry about getting
into any DUI problems or parking for that matter." Howie suggested.

     "You mean one car for 'N Sync and one for us, right?" Brian said.

     "Yes, you dumbass." Nick said as he rolled his eyes.

     "Well it's not like I want Justin sitting on my lap or anything."
Brian joked. Holly's eyes bugged out when she heard Brian say Justin's
name. After making car arrangements, and 'N Sync arrived, we were on our
way to the club, it was a different one from last time, which was a
relief. A.J. drove the Durango that contained the Backstreet Boys and
J.C. was driving the expedition that 'N Sync was riding. We got to the club
and went inside, no hitches or problems at all. Some of the guys went
straight to the dance floor when we got in, but Brian decided to scope out
a booth, and I joined him. I sat down and Kevin sat down next to me.

     "You can go dance if you want." I told Kevin.

     "I don't. I want to be with you." Kevin said. "We're leaving after
tomorrow."

     "Thanks." I said and scooted over closer to him. Kevin smiled and held
my hand.  Some of the other guys came to the booth and sat down after they
got drinks.

     "This club is great." Joey said happily. "So many people, and the
music is great too."

     "Having fun, Chris?" Justin asked me.

     "Oh yeah, this booth is the greatest." I said sarcastically. "Let's go
dance." I said as I pulled Kevin to the dance floor. He was surprised, but
happily went out with me. Kevin and I danced for a while, not with each
other, just next to each other. A little while later, I walked back over to
the booth, careful to avoid everyone, and sat down next to Brian.

     "Chris, do you know what I can get Holly before we go, I mean like a
gift." Brian asked.

     "Well, I guess you could get her some jewelry, every girl likes that."
I suggested, looking for Kevin. "You could get her something for the cat."

     "Well how about a collar for the cat or something?" Brian asked.

     "Yeah, whatever you want to get." I said, scanning the dance floor for
Kevin.

     "Looking for me?" Kevin said as he sat down beside me.

     "Yeah, where were you?" I asked him after I gave him a little kiss on
the cheek.

     "I was looking for you." He said. We sat there for a little, waiting
for the others to come back, which they did, but they left for the dance
floor after sipping their drinks and saying hello. Someone that I didn't
know walked up to the table and offered her hand to Kevin.

     "Hey there, I'm Christina." The short, blonde girl said.

     "I'm Kevin." He said when he took her hand and shook it.

     "I know. Who's this?" She said as she offered her hand to me.

     "I'm Chris, just a friend." I shook her hand. "So you're Christina, do
you have a last name?"

     "Yeah, actually I do. Weird huh? It's Aguilera." She said.

     "Chris, this is Christina Aguilera, she's coming on tour with us."
Kevin said. I nodded, "I like your song."

     "Thanks." She said and sat down by me.

     "How'd you get in?" I asked her.

     "I'm here with some friends. But I usually don't have any trouble
getting anywhere nowadays." She said.

     "Yeah, me too, whenever I'm with this guy I can go anywhere." I said
while I punched Kevin in the shoulder.

     "Perks of being a celebrity, I guess." Christina said. She was really
nice, easy to get along with, and it was nice having someone around my age
that wasn't an ass like Nick.

     "So I'll see you on tour, right?" She asked Kevin. He nodded. "And
I'll see you around sometime again, I hope." She said to me.

     "Oh, I'll be on tour too." I told her. She raised and eyebrow, "What
do you mean?"

     "I'm going on tour with the guys, I pick the clothes that they wear."
I said.

     "This guy is responsible for everything we wear, hard job isn't it?"
Kevin said.

     "Well, you have quite a job." Christina said.

     "Yeah, especially with 'N Sync on my bill too." Christina gave me one
of those 'God, you're crazy' looks and just shook her head.

     "Wish I had your work ethic." She said. "I'm so lazy it's not funny."
We laughed at her joke and we just talked about everything and nothing for
a long time. Kevin glanced at his watch and decided that we should
leave. We told Christina to go to the fundraiser tomorrow so that we could
talk some more.

     "It's black tie, so dress up." I told her. Kevin gave her the details
and I went looked for the other guys. We met up at the booth and Christina
introduced herself to everyone, I could tell that she was going to be a
blast on tour.

     "So we'll get going now." J.C. said. "You guys break a leg at the
performance tomorrow."

     "You're not coming?" A.J. asked, sounding sarcastically disappointed.

     "Sorry there A.J., we've got stuff to do." J.C. said.

     "I'll try to stop by." Lance offered.

     "Yeah, me too." Justin said.

     "Hope to see you there." I told them. "Well, let's get going." We
walked out to the car and this time I drove, since I didn't have anything
to drink at the club. Good thing too, god there was a lot of traffic
tonight. We got home in one piece, and filed into the house.

     "You think I can come back into the house tonight, guys?" Nick asked.

     "I think we should let him." Howie said.

     "Then you get the couch so you can watch him and I get the guestroom."
A.J. said.

     "Sound good to you, Holly?" Brian asked.

     "Yeah, I don't mind." Holly said weakly.

     "OK, I got the couch." Nick said as he hopped onto the couch.

     Kevin and I left the others alone to figure out the new sleeping
arrangements. I lazily walked up the stairs with Kevin and we arrived in
the bedroom. Tired, we washed up and changed. I was sitting on the bed
while Kevin was in the bathroom and decided to lie down, I was tired, and
the bed was getting really comfortable. I almost instantly fell asleep,
leaving Kevin in the bathroom. He walked out a few minutes later to find me
asleep on the bed. A small smile came to his face and I felt a faint kiss
on the forehead.

     "Kevin?" I said softly.

     "No, go to sleep Chris, just go to sleep." Kevin said soothingly. I
fell asleep and Kevin cuddled next to me, covering us up with the thick,
white down comforter.

     "I love you." He whispered into my ear, and he fell asleep with me
wrapped up in his arms.

Chapter 19

     I woke up the next morning really late, it was about two o' clock when
my eyes blinked open, I found myself still wrapped in Kevin's arms and I
could feel his breath on my neck. I slowly got out of the bed and sat on
the edge. I stretched my arms a little and turned to see Kevin looking back
at me.

     "You're awake." I said sleepily.

     "Yeah, without you here it feels kind of weird." Kevin yawned.

     "We should get ready, or at least eat." I suggested.

     "First I have to get a shower." Kevin said.

     "Yeah you do." I said, laughing a little. "And so do I." I stood up
and lazily walked into the bathroom and brushed my teeth. Kevin came up
behind me and wrapped his arms around my chest, his head on my shoulder and
his lips on my neck. I gently pushed him off of me and finished brushing me
teeth. I handed Kevin his toothbrush and he brushed his teeth, I watched
him as I sat on the corner.

     "You feel tired still?" Kevin asked me after he finished. He stepped
towards me and stood between my dangling feet, slowly pulling me into a
kiss.

     "Mmm. Minty fresh." Kevin joked.

     "Twelve hours with you right next to me? How could it have been bad?"
I said. I pulled Kevin into another kiss and wrapped my arms around his
neck. Thoughts of this being the last day for us together brought tears to
my eyes, but I didn't want to make Kevin as sad as I was so I blinked them
away, hiding my feelings from my boyfriend. He would be leaving tomorrow
morning. Kevin felt my hands quivering and he pulled away.  He looked at
me, I could tell that he knew what I was thinking. I blinked my eyes to
keep the tears at bay, but it was no use, seeing Kevin right in front of me
and knowing that I wouldn't be able to see him for a week was tearing me up
inside. I let the tears start to stream down my face and Kevin brought his
hands up to wipe them away.

     "I'm going to miss you so much." I whispered.

     "Shhhh, don't say that. You'll see me again. Stay strong." He said. I
knew that Kevin was sad too, but he was keeping his tears back. If he
cried, I knew that my tears would be uncontrollable. He gave me a soft kiss
on the cheek and whispered, "We have a show tonight, stop crying."

     I gave a few sniffles and my crying stopped. Kevin pulled me into a
tight hug and we moved to the shower. We washed up and I threw some boxers
on and a new pair of pajama pants. Kevin put on some warm-ups and a
tee-shirt. I grabbed a white tee-shirt and we walked down to the kitchen
for something to eat. We arrived to an empty kitchen, and an empty family
room.

     "Weird having nobody here when we wake up, huh?" I asked Kevin. He
pulled a note off of the fridge and read it. He handed it to me after he
did and fished in the fridge for a snack.

     'Kevin and Chris, it was quiet last night! Wow, what a difference it
was. We didn't want to wake you two, and decided to go out. You two fend
for yourselves. See you later so we can ride to the show together. Later,
B.'

     "Fend for ourselves? What do you want to eat?" I asked Kevin.

     "I don't know. Let's just order another pizza." Kevin suggested.

     "Don't you get sick of pizza?" I asked him. "We've had it like three
times already."

     "Two, it's not that bad." Kevin said. He picked up the phone and
ordered a pizza from the phone number by the phone. "Pizza is
filling. That's all we need." He pulled me into another hug and gave me a
little kiss on the forehead and then I looked right into his eyes, we were
forehead to forehead and I was looking into his engaging green eyes. Just
looking at them and their solemn appearance almost brought me to tears.

     "I'm going to miss you so much." I sighed. The tears started to come
again, and Kevin shook his head. "No tears, we'll get through this." I
nodded and pulled Kevin into another kiss. We kissed for a few minutes and
I sat down on the counter. Kevin and I waited quietly for the pizza to
arrive and when it did, we went to the door together. It rang again and we
got to the door.

     "Who is it?" I asked, just to check.

     "Pizza." Kevin and I heard. The voice sounded familiar, and it sounded
like someone with a mouth full of food. Kevin opened the door, and to my
amazement, there was Joey, Lance, and Justin, chowing down on our pizza.

     "This is good stuff." Justin said with a mouth full of food.

     "Yeah, thanks." I said. "You guys want to come in with the rest of our
pizza?"

     "Sure, but this guy wants his money." Joey said, pointing at the
delivery boy that was behind them. I gave the guy the money and Kevin
grabbed the pizza box from the Lance's hands.

     "Just get in here." Kevin said. He yanked the guys in and we walked
into the kitchen to continue the conversation and the meal. "Where are the
others?"

     "They're sleeping." Justin said. "We just came over to say good luck
at the show. You guys mind if we come with you?"

     "No, we don't mind." Kevin said. "You guys bring some clothes to
change into?"

     "They're in the car." Joey said, with another mouthful of food.

     "Good, they won't let you in if you're not dressed up." I
said. "Christina's going to be there too."

     "Cool." Justin said. "It'll be nice seeing her again."

     "Does our Justin have a little crush?" Joey joked.

     "She's just a friend from the club." Justin explained.

     "So when are you guys going to leave?" Lance asked.

     "Around six." Kevin said. "Maybe earlier."

     "We still have to get changed and practice a little." I said.

     "We get food there, right?" Joey asked.

     "Is that the only thing on your mind?" Lance laughed.

     "You get dinner." I said. "You guys will be able to meet my mom. She
set the whole thing up."

     "Where are the other guys?" Justin asked.

     "They're out." Kevin said. "They'll be back before we leave."

     "So Holly's going out and Nick's with her, I guess they made up."
Justin said.

     "I guess." I told him. "I hope that they make up."

     "You go on tour tomorrow, right Kevin?" Joey asked.

     "Yeah, we leave really early tomorrow for a show in Fort Lauderdale."
Kevin said.

     "So you're going to be stuck with us." Justin laughed.

     "For a week. Until the video shoot's over." I explained.

     "Then you're going with us to meet up with the boys." Lance said.

     "All in all, lots of fun." I said sarcastically. We talked a little
while longer about the tour and other arrangements. Soon, Holly and the
others arrived back home. Holly had to get a new dress and the others
wanted to go out to lunch and pick up their tuxedos.

     "You're going to dance in those?" I asked them.

     "We do it all the time." A.J. said. "We're only doing two dance songs
tonight anyway."

     "Well, I see that our 'N Sync friends are here." Howie said. "You guys
coming?"

     "We're going along for the ride." Justin said. "You guys get ready,
we'll entertain ourselves for a little, we have an hour or so to go."

     "You get my tux?" Kevin asked A.J. "It's in the bag." He said,
pointing to a suit bag hanging on the doorknob. Kevin grabbed it and the
two of us ran upstairs to change.

     "So this is going to be a long night." I sighed.

     "But at least I'm going to spend it with you." Kevin said. He pulled
me over and began to pull my tee-shirt off.

     "We won't be able to do this tonight, will we?" I gasped as Kevin
began to suck on my neck.

     "No, we won't." Kevin said seductively. My hands arrived at his
shoulders and I grabbed at the fabric of the shirt he was wearing. "Kevin,
we need to get ready." I managed to say. I knew that if we got any farther,
we'd be going at it for hours, and we didn't have time for an all night
session of sex. Kevin stopped abruptly and pushed me down on the bed. He
hopped on top of me and pulled his shirt up.

     "You don't have to do anything. Just leave it to me." Kevin
whispered. He pulled off his warm-ups and boxers, setting his throbbing
cock free. Kevin wrapped his fist around his meat and started to jerk on
himself. Kevin used his free hand to pull my pants off and groped at me
through me boxers. I wrapped my arms around his neck and gave Kevin a soft
kiss. "OK, maybe just a quick one. You don't have to do that." I said as I
pulled Kevin's hand off of his dick. I slid down Kevin's tight body and
turned him over. I kissed my way from Kevin's chest to his cock. I darted
my tongue out and licked the head of Kevin's dick. I brought my tongue down
the underside of Kevin's long dick, releasing a loud moan from his
lips. Kevin's hands held my head and ran through my hair. I took the head
into my mouth and began to run my tongue over the sensitive head of his
cock.  Kevin's hands ran a little faster through my hair as I began to take
more and more of Kevin's hard cock into my throat. Kevin gently pushed my
head down further and slowly bucked his hips upwards. Kevin moaned louder
as I increased my actions, and his bucking became more violent. I pulled
off a little to avoid gagging and licked intently on the rosy head. He
slowly led me down again and continued his thrusting. "Almost there..."
Kevin panted out. I sucked Kevin with all the strength left in my body and
ran my hands over his smooth, tight chest. Kevin's chest was heaving and
his heart was beating at superhuman speed. "God Chris, I'm going to..." He
thrust deep into my throat, leaving only about an inch of his cock out of
my mouth and began to cum. He sighed and hissed as his orgasm shook his
body. I could feel his chest quivering and convulsing as he came in my
throat. I pulled off to taste his cum, but he kept my head in place with
his hands. Kevin finished shooting his hot load down into me and slowly
lifted my head off of himself. He pulled me towards his lips and we locked
in a deep kiss, my hands still running over his chest, Kevin's arms
wrapping around my back. I lay on top of Kevin just kissing him for what
seemed like hours. Kevin pulled his lips from mine and I slowly rolled off
of him. Kevin sat up and looked over at me, he crawled over to where I was
on the bed and pulled me into a warm hug. "We have to get ready." Kevin
whispered. I nodded and he led me into the shower.

     After a short, uneventful shower, we walked out to the bedroom to get
dressed. Kevin pulled on his trousers and pulled a white shirt from the
bag. I grabbed a pair of black trousers and a white shirt. Kevin was
buttoning his white shirt up as I picked up my silver cufflinks. Kevin
finished and I helped him put his cufflinks on. He leaned down and we met
in a tender kiss.

     "You know, I can never get enough of this kissing." I said. Kevin
smiled, "Then let's get down to some serious business." Kevin pulled me
tight against his body and pulled my head to his. Kevin's mouth opened and
his tongue dove into my mouth, caressing and wrapping around mine. His
hands running the length of my back and his lips tight against mine. He
continued kissing me, since I didn't put up any resistance, we just kept on
kissing, our heads and hands automatically moving when needed, our hearts
beating in time. Kevin slowly pulled off, and I leaned my head in for more,
until I felt his finger stop my lips.

     "We are getting really close to missing this show." Kevin said. I put
on my jacket and Kevin put his on. He took his black dress shoes and I put
on my black Converse All Stars.  Kevin was about to mention the odd pairing
of shoes, but I stopped him before he started.  "Just let me wear them." I
said. He rolled his eyes and just kept on getting ready. We fixed our hair
a little and put on some cologne. We slowly walked downstairs, greeted by
Justin, Joey, Lance, and the other Backstreet Boys in full formal
dress. Kevin fixed my bow tie a little and we waited for Holly.

     "Management called and said not to do any dancing tonight." Howie
said. "They think that we'll look stupid dancing in these tuxes."

     "They're right, that'll look really dumb." I said. Just as I finished
my sentence, Holly came into the room in a stunning ice blue satin dress,
her hair was up and she was carrying a white purse. "Wow." was the response
from everyone.

     "That's what I get for living in a house full of men. Get the dog, and
let's go." Holly playfully sighed.

     "You're taking the dog?" Lance asked, confused. "I thought that this
was black tie."

     "It is." I said. "But my mom would kill us if we didn't bring him. She
loves him more than we do." Bailey hopped into Kevin's arms and we walked
outside. I carried my cello out and popped it into the trunk.

     We all got into the cars, we took the beamer and Justin's Mercedes. It
seemed silly with all of us in formal dress riding in the Durango. After
giving the 'N Sync guys the directions, we were on our way.

     We got to the concert hall and pulled into the valet parking area. We
got out of the car and started down the red carpet. There was no Joan or
Melissa at the fundraiser, at least they wouldn't be pulling our outfits
apart. They might have been invited to the fundraiser, though. We walked
into the concert hall and were seated on the side, closest to the stage.
My mother came over as soon as she saw us, and took Bailey out of Kevin's
arms.

     "Hi mom." I said as she came over to give me a hug. "You look great,
and so does everything else." The other guys shook her hand or gave her a
hug. "This is Justin, Lance, and Joey. They're part of 'N Sync, and they'll
be touring with Kevin and the others."

     "How great, I'm glad you guys took the time to come here and support
the heart disease and cancer issues." My mom said.

     "You look great." Holly said, admiringly. My mother was wearing a
burgundy gown that had a sheer scarf that matched. "When does the show
start?" Holly asked.

     "After the first course is served. You guys aren't on until later,
though." She explained.

     "Thanks Mrs. Thompson for letting my charity be a part of this
fundraiser." Brian said. "No problem. It makes both of our charities
better." Brian was smiling widely and I knew that he was glad to be part of
this good cause.

     "I have to go and see that everything runs smoothly, so I'll leave you
alone." We said our good-byes and some of the guys went over to the
bar. Kevin and I stayed at the table to wait for Christina to arrive.

     "Get me an iced tea." I told Holly. "And get Kevin one too." She
nodded and walked to the bar.

     "Kevin, are you okay, you seem quiet." I said as I put my glasses down
on the table. I took his hand into mine and looked deep into his eyes.

     "I'm going to miss you, I just wanted our last night to be a little
more special than a show and dinner." Kevin said. Brian sensed our
emotional position and left to wait for Christina at the door.

     "I wanted tonight to be special too, but we couldn't really get out of
this." I told him.  He nodded and gripped my hand tighter. A smile came to
his face and he whispered, "Maybe we can stay up late tonight."

     "I'd like that." I said seductively. "Maybe we could leave early."
Kevin smiled and he started to play with the ring on my finger.

     "Hey there guys." I heard someone say. Kevin and I looked up and saw
Christina, dressed to impress in a simple black dress with her blonde hair
in a bun, kept in place with silver chopsticks and a silver purse that was
shaped like a Chinese take-out box.  Brian sat down and waited for the
drinks to come back. Holly and the others arrived back at the table to
greet Christina.

     "Hey Christina, you look good." I said. She blushed a little and put
her purse on the table, and then sat down. She fixed a silver bracelet that
she was wearing and looked over at Kevin and me.

     "You two are always together." She said, squinting her eyes
slightly. "Is there something I should know about?" Just then our drinks
arrived and the waiter passed them out.

     "Can I have a Shirley Temple?" Christina asked the waiter. He nodded
and went to the bar to get her drink. "So, um...you guys are performing
tonight?"

     "Yeah, later tonight." Howie said, sipping his drink. A.J. let his
eyes wander around the room and he fixed his sunglasses. "When do you think
that we'll be eating, I'm starving."

     "I think that the food will be out at seven." I said, it was almost
seven, and I noticed my mother going into the kitchen to check on
things. We all settled in our seats and waited for the first course to
arrive. When it did, my mom came up on stage.

     "Thank you all for coming to support the Brian Littrell Endowment for
Pediatric Cardiology and the Thompson Cancer Fund. I appreciate all the
donations that were made and I'm sure that you'll all enjoy the
entertainment tonight. We have my son, Christopher and almost my daughter
Holly. They'll be joined by a friend of theirs, and a friend of the family,
Mr. Kevin Richardson." The crowd clapped happily and my mom continued.
"We'll have other classical performances and then have a performance by
Brian Littrell.  His endowment help children with heart conditions that
come from underprivileged families." Again, the crowd clapped and my mom
had to stop her speech. "And giving us a special performance tonight, will
be the Backstreet Boys." The crowd continued their clapping and my mother
walked off stage.

     We ate a little of our meal and waited for the call backstage. About
forty-five minutes into the meal, we were called backstage, so Kevin,
Holly, and I walked from the table and got ready in a little room by the
side of the stage.

     "Well, here we go, guys. It's now or never." Holly said as she tuned
her violin. Kevin and I were sitting on the piano bench, and I was tuning
the cello to the upright in the room. Kevin started warming up and we
worked a little on the hard parts of the song.

     "Kevin, good luck." I said as I pulled him into a kiss. He wrapped his
arms around me and gave a warm hug as we kissed.

     "We won't need luck, we've got this down flat." Kevin said. We got the
call from the stagehand and Holly led the way on stage. We were greeted by
a wave of applause as we sat down. We made a final tuning check and the
crowd sat silently. Holly started her solo introduction and Kevin entered
to accompany her. Soon, it was my turn and we were going into the 'chorus'
with al three of us. Then it was my solo and I played the haunting melody
with Kevin in the background. Tears came to my eyes as I played and I knew
that the emotions I was feeling were because of Kevin. The song went
flawlessly, ending with Kevin's solo. He ended and the crowd came to their
feet. We all bowed and walked off stage back to the little room.

     "You were great!" Kevin said excitedly. He pulled me into another deep
kiss and I ran my hands across his defined face and his little
goatee. Holly coughed loudly as the other guys entered the room. He wiped
the tears from my eyes and smiled. "You are always crying." Kevin
whispered. I gave Kevin a little smile and he pulled me into another deep
hug.

     "You two better get out there, don't want to leave Christina alone for
too long." Brian said towards Holly and me. I gave Kevin one last little
kiss on the cheek and we walked out to keep Christina company.

     "You were great, guys." She said as we sat down.

     "Thanks." Holly said. "Here the guys come." The music for 'All I Have
to Give' came on and the guys performed the song without the dance
routine. The music was pre- recorded and the guys had no problem coping
without their band. The song ended and Kevin looked at me. "This next song
is for a special person in my life." Kevin said. "I hope that you'll be OK
while I'm away, I'll miss you." The guys performed 'Just to Be Close'
acapella. Kevin glanced at me a few times during the song and I blinked
back the tears that came up. Kevin hated it when I cried. I clapped when
the guys ended the song and they finished their set with 'The One' and 'I
Want it That Way.' The guys went offstage, with the exception of Brian,
since he was going to perform a solo. Brian said some things about his
Endowment and sat back down with his guitar. He sang 'That's What She
Said.' After Brian's performance, the main course was served. Kevin and I
decided that this was a good time for us to leave, if we were going to. We
went over to my mother and tapped her on the shoulder. My dad was sitting
next to her and we said hello.

     "Mom, me and Kevin are going to be leaving early, because we have some
things to take care of before he leaves tomorrow morning." I said. Kevin
shook her hand, but she pulled him into a hug, "Go on ahead you two." She
said. We thanked her and walked outside to the valet parking area. The car
arrived and we got in, Kevin taking the wheel and we were on our way home.

     We arrived at home and I checked our messages, there were none. Kevin
pulled me upstairs and we got changed from our tuxedos to our outfits for
the night, boxers and a tee-shirt for me, but just boxers for Kevin.

     "You looked really hot tonight in your tux." I told Kevin.

     "Well, you didn't exactly look hideous either."

     "You look pretty hot now, you know." I laughed out.

     He smiled pulled me into the bed. I glanced at the clock, it was a
little past midnight.  Kevin threw the covers over us and I turned to face
him. The room was dark, but there was enough light for me to see the tears
falling gracing down his cheeks. "You're crying."  I whispered. "Yeah, I
just don't want to leave you."

     "I don't want you to leave." I told him. Kevin pulled me tight and out
lips met. Kevin ran his hands over my back as we kissed, and I caressed his
muscular chest.

     "Kevin, do you mind if we don't tonight?" I asked. "Can you just hold
me?"

     "Of course. I don't want to pressure you if you don't want to." Kevin
said softly. He held me tight and a few moments, and a few kisses later, we
were both asleep.

     The next morning, I woke up to Kevin shaking my shoulder.

     "Good morning." He said. "We have to go in an hour, you don't have to
the airport with us, though."

     "Of course I'm going." I yawned. "I wouldn't let you leave without
saying goodbye first."

     He smiled and I took a shower. Kevin had showered already and started
packing as I showered and got ready. We were ready and we walked downstairs
silently to meet the guys. It was Sunday, and we decided to take separate
cars, Holly and I had to run some errands after dropping the guys off at
the airport. The guys arrived and checked in, and we walked over to the
gate that was leaving for Fort Lauderdale. Kevin sat in the chair next to
the one I was sitting in and we waited for the boarding call. "I'll see you
next week." I told Kevin. "I'll be counting the minutes." He said as the
call sounded over the speakers. We stood up and I gave Kevin a hug my face
buried in his shoulder and my tears soaking his shirt. He gently rubbed my
back as I cried my sorrows out onto him.  Brian motioned Kevin to get going
and we had to pull apart.

     "I'll see you soon." I sniffled out. Kevin gave me another quick hug,
"I'll see you then." Kevin whispered. He walked slowly to the entrance
tunnel and I sat down on the chair I had been at earlier. A few moments
later, the plane flew off into the sky and away from my heart.
