Date: Mon, 14 Oct 2002 21:53:12 EDT From: ChefBratt@aol.com Subject: My Lance My Love Part 1 Ok here's the deal guys.... I don't know the members of NSYNC personally, and I could care less about their personal lives so please... this is a work of pure fiction (Sadly...) Secondly, If your not 18 or aren't allowed to read this because of legal reasons, you need to go to a more appropriate site. Also, this story contains man-to-man relationships, and at times will feature homosexual sex acts. If this offends you, you need to ask yourself, do I really want to continue??.... Anyway, email me if you think this is good or whatever.. (Especially if you are one of the lead characters!!...*Grin*) FLORIDA: "Good bye guys... see you in Orlando!!" I shouted as the limo started to pull away. Quickly I turned my head and dried a tear of happiness before fully facing the crowd behind me. With a look of shock, I saw my mother and older sister in a full embrace. "Hey mom? Is everything ok?" I asked with worry as I approached them cautiously. My Mother and oldest sister have never had a good relationship, so my cautious question was well deserved. "Yeah J. I think I need my mother now more than ever. AND my baby brother" My sister stated as she opened the embrace she shared with our mother. "Tam, It will be ok. Just think how beautiful she looked. You did good by her, and some day, you will be at your granddaughter's wedding, just this old bag here!" I said as my mother gave me a quick shove. " Hey I may be old, but you're the bag my baby boy!" she said with a giggle. "Seriously though. Are they coming with us to the resort?" I asked my sister as we started to walk towards where the wedding planner was talking to my brother. "Yes for the day before they fly out. Bill's parents got them a room at the Westin for a few days. I will call them when we get there. I have to run home for a few minutes and get some stuff, and I will meet you there." She said as the wedding planner came in my direction. "Mr. Benson? Could I have a word with you?" He asked politely. My sister looked at me and said, "Jr. Don't do it. I know what's going on, and the honeymoon is quite enough." Turning to the planner, she informed him, "Mrs. Benson is standing over there, I believe she is taking care of this" as she handed him back his clipboard and sent him away. "Tamara Lee..." I started. I hate it when people get into my business, least of all my family. "William Michael, You do so much for this family as it is, and she treated you like shit for so long. I did not raise my daughter like that, and I will not allow you squander money on her any longer. I thank you for her honeymoon, but that is all I'm allowing." She simply stated. I stared at her and all I could do was giggle. "Thank you. I think I needed that." SOMEWHERE IN ORLANDO: Five weary and tired guys got off a bus in front of a large complex. "Thank god where home" the big Italian one said with sarcasm. "Joey do you mind? I just want to get a nice shower!" a shorter blonde man said pushing him out of the way. " I'm just glad to be off that damn bus. The new driver is crazy!" a slightly taller man with wild hair stated. "Hey where are JC and Justin?" "Probably getting themselves all pretty!" replied the Italian named Joey with a hearty laugh. "At least you recognize us as pretty, and not that that gross look!" Justin said as he got off the bus. "It's not gross, its grunge!" Joey replied. "Besides, it looks like JC is trying for that look too!" All eyes turned as the oldest member of the group appeared looking like he just woke up. Dressed in a pair of sweatpants and an oversized sweatshirt, his hair was a complete mess. While the remaining guys and the crew started to giggle and point, all Justin could do was give JC a helpless stare. "Hey Guys... I got an idea... Fuck off already!" JC stated as he got off the bus and stormed inside. "What's a matter with him?" Chris asked as JC practically shoved him out of the way to get inside. " You know, him he's just tired, and he woke up to Joey" Justin said as he started to go after JC. That was a complete lie, and Justin knew it. He hated lying to his friends, but he couldn't bear it if they knew the truth, and rejected him. "JC, Baby is everything ok?" Justin asked softly as he entered the room that he and JC shared when in the compound. " Yeah, Just fine" JC grumbled as he laid on his bed staring at the ceiling. "Jace, you know Joey was just joking right? Besides I think you look great in that outfit...." Justin trailed off as he positioned his head near JC's. "Come on Justin, doesn't bother you remotely that we can't be ourselves with the guys? I mean they are our best friends and all." JC tried to finish but his mouth was commandeered by Justin. "Hmmmmm Baby... the guys are just downstairs. What if one walks in?" JC asked with little urgency. "Then they will see the truth. Now come on, let's see if scoop is out of the shower yet." Justin led his now wide-awake boyfriend to the door. As he was about to open it, JC put his hand on it and spun Justin around to face him. He placed a prolonged passionate kiss on the younger mans lips that made them both weak in the knees. As he his lips traveled down Justin's neck, Justin murmured "Jace if you don't stop, I'm not sure when we will make it downstairs again" Quickly and with what little resistance he had, he pushed JC away and headed for the bathroom. Inside the tiny bathroom, James "Lance" Bass looked at himself in the mirror. 'I'm cute aren't I?' he thought to himself. 'I mean I am an international pop star with my own production company... so why am I all alone?' Of course he already knew the answer. 'It's because your too afraid Lance. Let go of all the negative feelings and just say the words.' "I, James Lance Bass, am Gay" There. He said it. Out Loud. But to himself. ' Oh why am I so afraid? Why can't I tell the guys?' Very close to crying, he decided to hit his room for a nap. As he gathered up his clothes and headed to the door, he said the words one last time to himself. He heard voices outside the door, and when he opened it, he saw his two best friends, Justin and JC, locked in an embrace that would have stopped time. Quickly he shut the door, and asked out loud... "WHY ME??" SUNTERRA-POWHATTEN RESORT: "You guys, I'm boooooored!!" I whined out loud as my sister was rummaging in the fridge for a snack, and my brother tried to read the paper while my six yr old nephew colored on the counter. "JR.... you sound like MJ when you whine!!" My 13 yr old niece mimicked me as she walked behind her mother to see what she was eating. "Well I am missy..." I mimicked her as I picked her up and swung her around the dining room. "PUT.... ME.... DOWN...NOW..." she shrieked between gobs of breathlessness. "Seriously though, what are we gonna do tonight? Clubbin anyone?" I asked as I put my niece down. "Sounds good to me, just not your kind of clubs.. I like girls who like guys, not other girls...!" My brother stated with a smirk. "Well at your age, you should be happy that any sex likes you!" I retorted with a wink. " I suppose however that I can do the straight route for one night... Just don't make me kiss any girls... they have cooties...." My nephew started to giggle at that where as I made faces at him. "Girls have cooties.. Girls have cooties.." he started chanting with a huge grin on his face. "Allie? Susie? Tammy? Are we all gonna go?" I asked as my nephew still chanted. "I would, but I'm way to pooped from this morning. Thanks anyway." Tammy replied. "I want to so bad, but I can't leave my kids with Mom and Dad.. It's their vacation." Susie replied. "Well, I want to take Jeff to see his uncles, so I'm gonna head out soon, Susie, if you want to go, I will watch the kids for you." Allie replied. "Yeah, I don't get to spend nearly as much time with my nieces and nephews, so if you don't mind us tagging along, Allie, Skip and I would like to join you." Tammy asked from the couch. "That'd be great on all accounts guys. I appreciate that." Susie said as she scooped MJ off his chair. "Come on Mikey.. It's time for a bath. Jr, why don't you call the front and see what clubs there are?" "Sure thing guys" I said with a smile as I headed for the phone. THE COMPOUND: "Hey guys? Anyone want to do something tonight? Clubbin?" Joey asked as he entered the room. Lance was staring blankly at a very thick folder, and Chris was playing play station. "Sure Joe. I could use a night out. This will just get thicker with all the emails I print and my head will pound from the voicemail I answer in the morning." Lance smiled as he pushed the folder away. "I would love to Joe, but Adam will be here shortly with the designs for the new fall line." Chris stated as he continued to play. At the mention of Chris's assistant, Lance stiffened up. It's not that he didn't like Adam; it was quite the opposite actually. He and Adam had been flirting on and off for a long time, and when Adam got the nerve to ask him for coffee it was right in front of the guys. When Lance said no, they were both heartbroken and hadn't spoken to each other since. "EARTH TO LANCE!!! God boy, I know you want to go into space, but do you have to daydream about it all the time???" Joey was right in front of him. "Huh. I'm sorry Joe. Did you say something?" he asked. "Yeah. I was asking you if maybe you wanted to see if JC and Justin wanted to go. I can't find them." "Well then open your eyes you big dork.. We are both right here." Justin said as he walked into the living room with JC right behind him. " I just was asking scoop here if you guys might be interested in going clubbin' tonight. Besides, where the hell were you two anyway, playing slap and tickle?" Joey asked with a laugh. "I'm getting a drink, anyone want anything?" Lance asked and was gone before he heard any responses. Lance was staring softly out the window when he heard a soft noise behind him. He turned around to see Justin standing there. " Hey Lance. What's up?" the curly haired boy asked as he opened the fridge door. "Not Much Justin, Just thinking." As soon as he said those words, he got the image of JC and Justin again and smiled. "Hey Justin?" Lance asked "Yeah Scoop, what's up?' Justin answered without coming out of the fridge. "We are all still friends right? We can still tell each other stuff right?" Lance asked almost in a whisper. "Of course scoop, what's on your mind? " Justin asked while coming out of the fridge. "Well its just that.. You and JC.. Have become closer this last trip, and I wanted to make sure that it wasn't anything that anyone of us did." Shit. Did I just say that? Lance asked himself. By the look of horror on Justin's face he guessed he did. "Justin..." "Lance, It's not what anyone did. JC and I are just really close right now. I hope that the other guys don't think it's something they did." Justin said with a slight tear running down his cheek. "Oh Justin, I'm so sorry that I asked you that.. I just want to make sure everything is ok." Lance said as he looked into Justin's eyes. In that instant where both boys looked into each other's eyes, they both knew. Lance knew about Justin and JC, and Justin knew about lance. "Oh Lance, everything is perfect now! I am so glad you asked because now I can finally share it!" Justin's tears of joy started to rain down on them both. "Ahem." Both boys jumped when they heard JC clear his throat. "Is everything ok here fella's?" he asked. Instinctively Justin ran to him and gave him a kiss on his lips. "Ah Justin? Do you mind telling me why you just did that with Scoop around?" JC asked surprised. Justin simply responded, "He's one of us now honey, its ok." "Scoop?" JC asked curiously. "Yeah Jace... It's true...." "By the way scoop, Joey said he will be back at 10 to pick us up.. We are going to Rain." And with that, Lance left the two lovers alone in the kitchen. SUNTERRA-POWHATTEN RESORT: "Okay guys here's the deal. There's a pretty good club called 'Rain' about 20 minutes from here. There's already a group from a couple of condos up going, and the shuttle driver said he would take them for free if he could get a couple more people to go with them. Does that sound good?" I asked my brother and sister. They both responded with a case of the chuckles. "What's so funny u two?" "The last time you went somewhere with a DD, you ended up so drunk, you couldn't remember anything after you left the house!" My brother reminded me. "Yeah Yeah Yeah.... You are just jealous cause the only card they ask you for is your AARP card!" I yelled at him. He stood there and looked shocked at me. "What time are we leaving?" My sister asked. "We have to be at the club house by 10pm." I responded. A few hours later, we were standing in line at the club waiting to get in. "I wonder who that was" my brother said motioning to a limo that pulled up. A large man got out of the front and approached the bouncers. He flashed something and waved the limo to the side entrance. "I dunno, but I wanna know who THAT is.." I grabbed my sister's arm and pointed out who I thought was one of the most gorgeous guys I had ever seen. "That's it my brother the whore. Nice." As if on cue, he looked in our direction and waved. V.I.P ROOM CLUB RAIN: "Thanks for coming out tonight guys" Joey said as they all sat around the table. "I have got to get dancing.. its driving me crazy!!" "Can I get you guys drinks?" the waiter said as he approached them. "I'll have a Budweiser" Joey Said "Rum & Coke please" Lance said "Same for us" JC said meaning him and Justin. "Come on Justin, Lets go dance" Joey said grabbing Justin by the arm. "JC? Lance? You guys comin?" "In a minute Joe" JC responded. As soon as the guys were out of sight, JC grabbed Lance's Attention. "What the hell happened today? In the kitchen?" He asked excited. Lance started to stammer, "JC.. I..I.. I didn't mean.." "No Lance, I'm thanking you!! Gods I Love Justin so much, and it's unbelievable how much I can't stand not showing my affection for him. Thank you soooooooo much!!!!" With that, JC pulled Lance into a hug. Just as soon as he did that, the waiter came back with their drinks. "Here you go sirs... Can I get you anything else?" he asked. As soon as he said that, he got a look at the two of them. "Hey, do you know who you guys look like in this light? You guys look like the guys from NSYNC." "We get that all the time," JC said. "Well whoever you are, you two make a cute couple" the waiter said, and then realized how stupid he sounded. "Thank you, but were not together" JC responded. "Oh of course not. I didn't mean...." The waiter said but Lance cut him off. "Its ok, he's like a brother to me. My wife is at home. Here is your check" and handed him the money for the drinks. "Thank you sir" the waiter replied and headed off to the next section, obviously embarrassed. "If only he know, Lance, If only he know" JC said as he got up from the table. Well That's it Bois and Girls... Lemme Know what you think so far..... See yas on da flip side
