Mirror Mirror Part 7 -------------------- Previously: "Ann, please, forgive me? Shout at me, hit me but don't stare at me with those hurt eyes. They are breaking my heart," JC whispered, looking into Ann's clear ash grey eyes with was shining with tears. "I..I need time. I can't forgive you, not just yet. The hurt is still there," she mumbled out, pushing past him and he caught her arm. "Ann, I.." Ann pulled her arm away and walked into the suite. JC stood there motionless. 'No matter what, I will make her accept me back,' he whispered to himself, determined. AnD NoW, ThE sTorY bEgins... *After the concert* "Wow, that is really touching," Brian said to JC when he passed him to get a towel. JC just nodded sadly. Justin sighed while Lance looked on worriedly. After JC had finished 'This I Promise You', he hoped that Ann could forgive him but then she haven't shown up yet after the concert. 'Maybe she still couldn't forgive me yet. Afterall, it's only a song and what is that to the hurt I caused her?' JC thought to himself. Kev looked at JC and then looked at Nick who is busying himself drinking some water. A soft knock startled JC who rushed to open it. To his disappointment, it was only AJ. "Oh, it's only you," JC walked back to the couch and slumped in it. "Thank YOU. Now I know how well loved I am by you," AJ replied sarcastically. JC just give a grunt in return. Justin wanted to go and comfort JC but then he knew that JC need time to think things through by himself. He went into the bathroom to get a shower after Howie is through with it. Lance just sat there, thinking of what he 'the fairy godfather' can do to help the situation. He really thought that Ann would cave in after the song that was sung to her. 'Hmm..what can I do?' Lance brooded, with Kev looking at him, knowing what Lance is thinking about. Kev himself is thinking of a way to help them out. Ann let herself in the room quietly. Brian saw her and gave her a smile. She smiled back and touched JC's shoulder lightly, startling him from his deep thoughts. "ANN," he said in relief. "We need to talk," she told him and both of them walked out to the corridor, which was quite empty except for the few stagehands running around with equipments. "Thanks for the song," "Ann, I meant everything that I had said" "Hear me out first okay?" "Okay," "JC, when I saw u last night with Nick, something inside me just ripped. I really thought things over and over," Ann took a deep breath, "I don't think we can be together anymore. It is for the best," JC's mouth dropped open. "Ann, please, give me one more chance to prove that I love you," "I can't. Not just yet," Ann's heart had already softened but she keep on reminding herself that she is only preparing herself for more heartache if she continued this with JC. "Can we still be friends then?" JC asked softly. "Sure," she replied after thinking it out. The door fell open and JC saw all the others kneeling there, looking at him and Ann guiltily. "Hey," AJ said weakly, standing up. JC smiled weakly and went into the bathroom to get his shower. Ann sat there, with the others looking at her intently. "WHAT?" The guys all shrugged carelessly and turned away. Justin came and sat next to Ann. "Just, I don't want to talk about it anymore," "Ann, I think I have the right to know about all these. Not only JC but also with the phone calls," "Don't push this," "Tell me Ann," "Justin..." Ann warned him, getting upset. "I want to know about the phone calls and why do they make you upset," "Fuck off, Justin. For so long, you didn't even bother to know what is going on with me. What had been going on in my life. And now you decide to get involved? I DON'T THINK SO!" All of them stared at her surprised. "You know that I am busy with all the tours and all. You can't blame it all on me," Justin defended himself, hurt by Ann's words. Lance glared at Ann, angry that she had made Justin upset. "Look Justin. Let's just forget this whole thing, okay? Both of us are tired and we are not thinking properly," "Yeah," Justin answered softly, walking back to Lance. "You okay?" Lance asked him softly. "Yeah, what she say is true you know. I hadn't kept in touch for so long and here I am demanding to know everything," Justin lay his head on Lance's lap, closing his eyes tiredly. Lance absent-mindedly run his hands through the unruly curls as Justin smiled contently, thinking of what Ann had said. Kev decides to take his chance to approach Ann now. "It is not really a nice thing to do," "Kev, don't you start too," begged Ann looking at him sadly. "We gotta know," "FINE! So you want to know how I was abused by the one person that I thought really loved me? No, it is not my parents. It was my boyfriend of three fucking years," Ann answered, raising her voice, fed up with all the questions. Kev stared at her, for the first time seeing the hurt, bitter side of Ann's personality. It was then that he knew how come she didn't want to get too involved with someone. They either leave her or abuse her. "Ann, you can't let that stop you from loving again." Joey said softly, standing in front of Ann. "Why shouldn't I? Even now, when I finally thought that I should open my heart up, it gets torn into two again," "Ann, I am sorry. It is not JC's fault. I am the one who keeps JC's drink filled. I wanted him to get drunk so that I could have a chance with him," Nick spoke for the first time. "Give him one more chance," Ann looked at all of them one by one. "Please?" JC spoke from the bathroom door. Ann glanced up, seeing JC who just finished his shower. She looked into his sincere and hopeful eyes. Her heart softened at the expression on JC's face. Slowly she nodded and the tension in the room was broken when all of them cheered as JC ran towards Ann and gave her a mind-blowing kiss. She smiled weakly and hugged JC. All of them went back to the suite. They started talking about Greg and everything else in between. "You mean that he tried to rape you?" Chris yelled. Ann nodded, looking down to the floor. JC held Ann even closer to him as he fumed. "What is he doing calling you now?" Lance asked, shushing Chris and AJ down. "I don't know. But then if he know where I am, sure he will come and then he will hurt anyone who gets in the way," "Wow, Ann. You sure attract the wrong sort of guys," joked Howie, trying to ease the situation around. She smiled. "Well, if he comes, he is going to get a beating from me," JC threatened. "Me too," chorused out from the rest of the guys. They decided to go and sleep because they have a long day ahead of them the next day. Returning to their rooms, all of them fall asleep quickly for the exception of Lance, Justin, JC and Ann. JC went into Ann's room quietly and stared at Ann's sleeping figure. He turned to leave the room. "JC?" "You still awake?" "Yeah," she sat up on the bed, looking at JC in the dark. "Okay, goodnight. I love you," he whispered, walking towards Ann. He kissed her lips softly. "JC? Stay with me?" she asked softly. He nodded and lay beside her, cuddling her close. Ann wanted to believe that this is all true and JC wouldn't hurt her again. She snuggled into JC and fell asleep. JC soon dozed off. "It seems like everything is back to normal again," Lance said to Justin as he massaged Justin's tense shoulders tightly. Justin sat up on the bed, looking at Lance. "Lance, how could I not see all the bitterness and hurt in her? How could I let this happen?" "Curly, you didn't know. You couldn't stop this from happening," "I should have been there for her. What type of best friend am I?" "Don't berate yourself so, Curly," Lance kissed Justin's shoulder softly, slowly proceeding up. Justin sighed and let Lance have his way with him. Lance bite Justin's neck softly, sucking it. Lance moved down Justin's body and now nibbled on Justin's nipples, getting a soft moan from Justin. Lance kissed Justin everywhere, stopping to turn Justin to face down on the bed. He started kissing Justin at the base of his spine to his very toes. Justin started giggling when Lance's tongue tickled his sensitive sides. Lance's shaft grew to its full size when he inserted his finger into Justin's tight rosebud, making Justin breath harder. A drop of pre cum appears on Lance's hard penis and he rubbed it against Justin's rosebud, making it easier for his finger to enter Justin. Justin started to kneel in front of Lance, trying to give Lance a better access. Lance dove down at that moment and enveloped Justin's hard cock in his hot mouth. The sudden attack make Justin spurt a drop of pre cum. Lance sucked it down gleefully, enjoying the sweet taste. He sucked even harder. "Lance...I can't stand it," Justin held Lance's head steady and thrust into Lance's mouth, almost making Lance gag. Soon they had a rhythm going on. When Justin thrust into Lance, Lance mimics the movement with his finger at Justin's rosebud. Both of them are breathing heavily, trying to prolong the moment. Justin stopped Lance before he came. Justin pulled Lance close and kissed him, rubbing their hard-on together. "I want you in me," "You sure?" asked Lance. "Yes," Justin took out the condom from the side table and ripped it open. He slowly rolled it down Lance's shaft, looking straight into Lance's eyes. He rubbed the lube all over Lance's cock, making Lance groan. He then rubbed the lube on his asshole. "Justin, relax. I am not going to hurt you," assured Lance. Justin tensely nodded and opened his legs. Lance slowly entered the waiting hole slowly. He groaned at the tightness of Justin's hole. Justin never felt so filled before. The pleasure and pain combined together make him feel even hornier. Finally Lance is up to the hilt in Justin. Lance waited for Justin to get adjusted to his size and when Justin started to squeeze his anal muscles on Lance, Lance started thrusting slowly. Lance pulled nearly out of Justin slowly and then thrust back hard. Lance continued teasing Justin this way until Justin finally begged Lance stop playing. Lance bit on Justin's shoulder hard and shoved himself to the hilt. Lance grabbed Justin's dick in his hands, moving it according to his thrusts. The motion was too much for both of them and soon both of them came. Justin spurted all over their chests while Lance collapsed on Justin, tired. "Eww, sticky," teased Justin who felt complete for the first time. "Hmph," Lance snorted. Justin squeezed his anal muscles again, trying to keep Lance from slipping out. Lance could feel himself hardening again. "You horny toad," Lance said, pulling out of Justin. "Hey!" Justin protested. "Go and sleep!" Lance ordered, spooning Justin from behind. Justin rubbed his butt at Lance's groin and received a smack on his thigh. "Sleep!" Soon both of them fell asleep from the exhaustion. *At Nashville* "Where the heck is AJ? I am going to kill him!"screamed Nick who stared at his head of neon green hair incredulously. Kevin looked at Nick's head and started yelling. "ALEXANDER JAMES!!!!!" Both of them started finding for AJ who cleverly hid himself inside the women's toilet. He sniggered to himself as he thinks of how Nick looked with green hair. The toilet flushed from one of the stalls. Before AJ could hide himself in one of the stalls, Ann walked out. "Again?" "Yep," AJ grinned mischievously. Ann washed her hands. "So what is it this time? Hiding his underwear?" "Nope, green hair," Ann burst out laughing. "Oh damn, you are gonna get it this time," "Not if they couldn't find me," "Haha, maybe," "Ann, you won't turn me in right? After all, we are buddies......" AJ begged Ann who has an evil look in her eyes. At last Ann relented and promised not to tell the others where he is. Ann walked out of the bathroom and bumped into Nick. She could barely hide the laughter when she saw the green hair. "Is AJ inside?" Nick asked. "Nope, there is no one inside," Ann tried to stop herself from laughing. "Okay, I am going to kill that guy," Nick walked off, threatening to kill AJ in a thousand and one ways under his breath. Ann walked to the stage where *N Sync is practicing. They were having a break when she arrived. She crept up behind JC and gave him a small kiss. JC's face broke into a big grin when he saw who it was. He returned the kiss and broke off after a loud cough from Darren, the chereographer. Justin was fooling around with Joey while Chris was discussing about the dance moves with Darren. Lance joined JC and Ann and put his arm around Ann. JC pretended to be jealous and tried to pull Ann away from Lance. From the side of the stage, a light browned hair girl looked on with a smile. She slowly proceeded to the stage. "Oh, I erm..I," a stagehand stammered upon seeing the gorgeous girl. She smiled softly and continued up the stage. "BRITNEY!!" AJ who just entered the stage area shouted. Everyone's head turns towards Britney's direction. Britney looked cross because AJ had spoiled her surprise. Chris came running and swept Britney up. Britney started laughing when AJ and Joey made a big deal of wiping their eyes and pretending to do her homage. "Hey, Just," she said easily, hugging Justin. "Great to see you again," he answered lightly. Lance felt a pang of jealousy and shook it away. "OH MY GOD! Is that NICK?" Britney stood there in shock. "AJ!!!!!" Nick screamed from the other end and when he saw Britney, he screamed Britney's name instead, running to give her a hug. They haven't seen each other since the last music awards. All of them were busy with separate tours and promotions. One by one the BSB started streaming into the stage area and gave Britney a warm welcome. Ann stood there, looking at the girl who Justin had tried to love but couldn't. Britney caught sight of the girl who has captivating light ash grey eyes looking at them. She smiled at Ann and Ann returned the smile. Somehow at that moment, Britney knew that this girl staring at her is special and they connected in some way. JC saw Britney staring at Ann. "Brit, meet Ann...my girlfriend. Ann, Britney," JC made the introduction. Both girls nodded at each other, smiling. "Brit, what are you doing here? I thought you are recording your new album?" Howie asked. "Well, the management thought that all their Jive babies should be touring together," "Oh, cool. We could hang out and all," piped in Joey. "PRACTICE people...!" Darren yelled from the middle of the stage. "Britney, get your ass out of here. I need my guys back," Britney scurried off the stage with Ann following close behind. They sat in the seats, looking at the BSB and *N Sync performing. "So, I gather you are the same Ann that Justin talks about a lot?" "Yep, I guess so," Britney turned to stare at Ann who returned it boldly. "I just want to tell you that JC is a very special guy. He is like my brother since the Mickey Mouse club. Take care of him, please," Britney's voice softened with a hint of steel in it. Ann nodded. They were quiet until Ann finally spoke. "So is it true about Prince Willy?" "So very NOT true," Britney laughed out. "Really?" "Yep, I do have a boyfriend," "Who who? Hehe..don't mind the busy body me.." "Well, it is a tall, dark, and handsome guy," teased Britney. "BRIT!" Ann screeched out. "Okay okay..it's Chris K," "Wait, as in Chris Klein the person from the movie 'Here on Earth'? THAT Chris Klein?" Ann gasped out. "Yep," Britney smiled smugly. "Oh, I hate you witch!" Britney stuck her tongue out at Ann. "Well, he is mine..so stick your paws to JC," Britney teased Ann who returned the tongue sticking. The two girls sat there the rest of the afternoon, laughing and joking around. JC and Kev looked on, smiling. Justin and Lance were repeated scolded by Darren because they were busy making goo-goo eyes at each other. Brian and Nick were busy play-punching one another. Darren looked like he wanted to scream his head off because of his charges short attention span. "GET OUT OF HERE ALL OF YOU!" Darren yelled, finally snapped. When Darren stomped off, the BSB and *N Sync exchanged high-fives and walked to Britney and Ann. All of them decided to order some Chinese take-outs for lunch after begging from Ann, Chris and JC. "Stop doing that puppy face at me," Lance laughed out. Kev just sighed and slowly pressed the number for the local Chinese take-out restaurant. Time passed very quickly as it is soon time for all of them to perform. Ann sat in the audience as usual, always surprised by how good all the acts are. Britney sprung up from the stage, breaking into 'Oops, I did it again,'. Screams from the audience are doubled when they are treated to this unexpected treat. Nick's hair is now a soft shade of green. He had declared a war with AJ. JC almost laughed out when he saw AJ's pants ripped into two when he bended. Nick smiled smugly at AJ's quickly reddening face. The crowd screamed upon seeing AJ's boxers. AJ blushed hard and took a quick break backstage to get another pair of pants. Kev frowned but continued the dance routine. *N Sync joined the BSB in the second set. After almost three hours and half a dozen encores, the concert is over. Ann waited for the backstage winners to rush to the backstage before slowly making her way there. She heard the screams of some over-excited girls upon seeing their favorite artists. She walked into the room, standing at the corner, looking at them signing autographs and taking pictures. After 45 minutes, the fans are ushered out and Justin slumped in his seat in exhaustion. Lance sat behind Justin, cuddling Justin. Britney sat with Kev and Joey. AJ couldn't stop ranting at Nick for the mishap with the pants but Nick in turn argued about the green hair. They looked at each other sulkily and then turned to Brian. "No, don't involve me in," Brian backed off and went over to JC. Nick and AJ continued their eyeball showdown. They goofed off in the dressing room until the security people come to get them to the waiting buses, which will bring them to Illinois. Britney's bus is also there, with all her dancers while the equipment is in another bus. As they walked to the buses, the carpark was quite empty for it is already 1.00 am. JC stretched tiredly when Justin tried to get JC to race with him. Ann walked slightly behind with Lance, discussing about what she should do about the will since Lance is one of the most informed about this stuff. At that moment, a guy came up to them after waiting for them from the corner for quite sometime. He had watched Ann during the concert, wanting to go to her but decided to bid his time. "Ann?" Ann turned around and gave out a shriek. "Glad to see you too, love," the guy replied with a wry smile. The whole group stopped and stared at the guy. JC whirled around and stood next to Ann. "Love?" JC questioned Ann who stared at the other guy with shock. "Didn't she tell you? I am her boyfriend," "What?!" JC yelled. "Didn't you know? We had been dating for over three years. We are as good as engaged," Greg added. Ann looked at him venomously, keeping her anger in. "WE ARE NOT ENGAGED, GREG," she gritted out. "What do you mean, love?" Greg asked. "Stop all this! I told you a million times and I will say it again, LEAVE ME ALONE!" "We are meant for each other. We are alike, I love you," "I am NOTHING like you. You don't love me but you only want a human beating bag," spitted out Ann angrily. All of them stared at Greg with hate in their eyes. 'So this is Greg,' they all thought except for Britney who still didn't know what is going on. Chris stared at the guy with dark brown intense eyes, blond hair, and medium built. Greg looked at Ann with anger in his eyes and Chris had a feeling that if they were not there, Greg is going to hit Ann. Lance seemed to get the same premonition because he quickly stood beside Ann while JC and Justin are trying to stare Greg down. Greg took a step towards Ann but before he could reach Ann, JC pushed Greg away. "You heard her. Leave," JC said rudely, barely keeping his temper in check. Greg pulled back his arm, wanting to punch JC but Justin jumped on Greg from behind. He had been waiting for a chance to hit Greg and this is it. Justin pounded his fist into Greg's sides and was pushed off by Greg. Lance wanted to help Justin but was beaten to it by Nick and Chris who joined in pounding Greg's face in while JC was held back by Kevin. Kevin feared that if JC joined in, Greg would be as good as dead. "Stop it! ALL OF YOU!" screamed Ann, getting more upset by the minute. One by one the BSB and *N Sync boys was pulled off Greg who was putting up a good fight. "Leave now. If you ever call her again, or even try to meet her, I am going to sue you in court," Lance said to Greg, staring at him coldly. "ANN! YOU WON'T GET RID OF ME SO EASILY!" Greg walked off, wiping the blood from his split lips. Nick rubbed his eye sorely. Greg had thrown a good punch at it. Ann went to Justin, running her hands through his ribs, which had received a kick from Greg. Justin groaned a little but aside from a nasty bruise, he was okay. "Okay, what was that?" Britney asked them after assuring that everyone is okay. Kev looked at Ann to get confirmation that she wants to tell Britney what is going on. Ann nodded once and hugged JC. "THAT ASSHOLE! WHERE DID HE GO?" yelled out Britney. "Calm down, Britney," "All I want to know is how does she know that I am here with you guys," Ann added softly. All of them are stumped. They brooded silently as they boarded the bus. All of them decided to sit in *N Sync bus together that night and talk things through. Soon, one by one started to fall asleep from exhaustion. JC held Ann close to him when he slept on the couch. Britney is sleeping in his bunk. Ann lay there awake, thinking of Greg. Suddenly the bus shooked and Ann heard a crunching sound. The bus toppled and she screamed, holding JC close. All of them woke up at her screaming and the bus overturned. Ann saw the buses' window breaking in as they slided on the road. A large piece of glass came hurling towards her and JC. Ann looked at it, panicked but pushed JC out of the way just in time. She blacked out as the glass struck her. "ANN!" -----tO be cOntiNueD----
