FIRST THINGS FIRST: Thank you very much to all my diehard fans and each of them know who they are.

He plopped himself down on the long couch in the main room of the O-town house in downtown Orlando, Florida. This couch had so many memories in it already in only their third year together. Ashley remembered as he and the other 4 original members of O-town sat on this couch and held hands and cried after finding out the fact that their careers would begin now. Flashes of him and Jacob sitting on this couch recording "Stay" just the two of them in mesh shorts and nothing else. "It was so much easier back then." Ashley said out loud to no one The compiling of all the stress in the Matt situation and the busy life of a pop star eventually got to him and Ashley felt his eyes closing and began to pass out. He was soon drifting off to sleep. Ashley found himself sitting down in a chair he didn't recognize in a room he didn't recognize. He stood up and looked around. There was nothing but the chair and a mirror in the room. He walked over and saw his reflection but noticed that he wearing a tuxedo. He always wondered what he would look like in a tux but it just didn't seem right to be in one. A knock came from the door and he opened it. "You ready Ash?" Dan also dressed in a tuxedo asked him "Umm yeah I guess." Ashley said. "You're about to get married buddy, it would be good to say something a little more assuring then that." Dan said as he began to laugh. Ashley focused on that laugh. It seemed as though he focused too hard though because before he knew it he was walking down the aisle with music playing behind him. None of this felt right yet for some reason he continued to walk towards the altar. He looked around and saw all of his friends yet for some reason he couldn't place a name to a face or anything. He wondered if he was sick or something but he knew he had to keep walking. He glanced towards the altar and saw the priest staring at him with a gigantic smile on his face. To him, this was a match made in heaven apparently. Ashley shook his head and just moved on wondering why he didn't just stop and ask what the hell was going on. He took a step up on the small, carpeted stairs and turned towards the other man in the tux. It wasn't the beautiful blue eyes of his fiancée that stared back at him. It wasn't the golden locks that he loved to run his hands through. It was Matt. It was the face of pure deception. "Ashley" Matt said "No, this can't be happening." Ashley said putting his hands over his face trying to shield away the site that was just too powerful. "Ashley what's the matter?" Matt asked. "No, get away." Ashley began to yell back. "Ash, wake up." Dan said repeatedly as he shook his friend. "Huh? What?" Ashley asked as he opened his eyes. "Buddy, you had a nightmare." Dan stated. "It was just a dream. Thank god." Ashley said as he hugged Dan. "Ash, what's going on man? You're scaring me" Dan said "Dan, I have to tell you something." Ashley said "I know, that's why I came home right after you called me today." Dan said. "I cheated on Nick." Ashley said very lowly. Dan got real quiet. "Ash, how did that happen?" he asked "I didn't really cheat on him. Matt kissed me in the bathroom earlier today." Ashley said with a frown on his face. "Devon's friend?" Dan asked "Yeah" Ashley responded "Wow, I thought he was after my boyfriend again. But wait, you said he kissed you. It's not really your fault then." Dan began trying to save whatever he could of Ashley and Nick's relationship. "Dan" Ashley said cutting him off, "I didn't stop him." He said Dan started pacing. "Jeez Ash how did this happen?" Dan asked "I don't know." Ashley said putting his hand on top of his head. "These feelings just kinda overcame me when I first met him and I let it get too far." Dan just shook his head. "Ash you're engaged. Maybe this is all too much at once. Maybe you guys should push off the wedding, if there still is one after Nick finds out." Dan said "Dan, I am still marrying Nick. I love him. I told Matt that it's over and it can't go any further. I have to tell Nick. Soon." Ashley said. Both men just looked at each other, neither sure of what was going to happen next. Everyone had returned from the excursion at the mall and after all the tags had been removed from the clothes and the new cds were done being played in the stereos it was actually pretty quiet at the O-town house. There were two people in the downstairs pool house room that really didn't mind that at all though. "It feels so good just to relax." AJ said as he laid on his stomach with no shirt on Jacob's bed. "I definitely hear that." Jacob said as he walked over towards the bed and sat down on top of his boyfriend's back. He began to kneed his hands into AJ's back giving him a much needed back massage. He worked hard on each section of his back, especially the shoulders and neck area. "Jake that feels so good." AJ said with a moan "I bet this will feel better." Jacob said as he began to kiss his boyfriend's back. He started by kissing around AJ's shoulders and slowly worked his way down to the middle and then the small of his back. He slowly traced his fingertips along AJ's side while doing this and could feel the goose bumps begin to form on his back. Jacob smiled and giggled a little as he remembered when the guys sat down to write "We Fit Together" that an occasion like this was exactly what they had in their heads. Jacob saw the way these goosebumps were leading and he had no trouble following them. He reached around underneath and undid AJ's belt buckle and zipper while he continued to kiss his back. After everything was undone he slowly pulled down AJ's jeans over his bubble butt and noticed that he wasn't wearing any underwear. Jacob was very turned on by the fact that AJ decided to freeball it today and was appreciative as it made the job easier now. AJ kicked off the jeans once they were around his ankles as Jacob continued his assault on AJ's backside and slowly moved his way down towards his butt. He began to massage the smooth cheeks with his hands and kissed his way down the crack as he did this. He pulled the cheeks apart and saw his boyfriend's beautiful, pink rosebud. AJ knew what was coming and braced himself by gripping the pillow. Before he knew it Jacob began his attack with his tongue. He swirled it around as best he could as AJ began to squirm. It was a warm yet inviting taste for Jacob and he treasured any time that he could make his lover happy. AJ and Jacob may not have been as hot a couple to many as Nick and Ashley or Devon and Dan or even Lance and Trevor but to the two of them there was nothing in the world that was more scorching. Jacob stopped his tongue thrusting for two seconds and before AJ could turn around to see what the problem was he felt the tip of Jacob's penis pushing against his hole. He arched his back a little more to give better access to his lover. For Jacob, this was more than an invitation to keep going. He slowly slid inside of him. AJ felt the foreskin pass through and then eventually the tingling of Jacob's curly pubic hair. Jacob began to thrust in and out of his lover to the point where there was a smacking sound every time his balls slapped against AJ's thighs. By now AJ was also jerking himself off at a remarkably close pace to the one that Jacob was keeping. Jacob was ready to let go of everything he had inside of him, not only just his cum but also all the stress that accompanied their lives. With a moan he let out 3 long spurts of seed into AJ's hot ass. He fell onto AJ's back and noticed that his boyfriend was still jerking his cock off as a fast pace. Jacob slid out of his ass and replaced AJ's hand with his own mouth. He began bobbing up and down as fast as he could muster. It didn't take long for AJ after what had just happened and he unloaded all he had inside of Jacob's waiting mouth. Jacob swallowed all that his boyfriend had to offer and did it gladly. Both men laid there catching there breath and just smiling at each other, basking in the glory of love. "Nick, there's something I need to talk to you about." Ashley said to his boyfriend who was laying with his head on his lap. "What's up baby?" Nick asked with a smile on his face Ashley got lost in that smile. He wasn't sure how he was ever going to do this. It was easily the hardest thing he's ever had to do in his life. He understands however that actions lead to consequences and he had to live up to them. "Can we go somewhere else and talk?" Ashley asked "Umm, sure, let's go take a walk on the beach." Nick said getting up and pulling Ashley out the door by his hand. The two men walked hand in hand on the beach barefoot, looking out over an ocean that seemed to just captivate the mind. The moon glistened off the water with a white glow. Nick was more beautiful then ever in this radiance, which made everything he was about to say even harder. 'Would Nick accept what I'm about to say?' 'Would he dump me forever?' 'Would he get mad and hurt me'...These were all the thoughts that were going through his head but there was only one way to find it out. "Nick I need to tell you something and it might be a little hard." Ashley said looking away. Nick pulled his face towards him and said, "Whatever it is I'll still love you." "You may not after what I'm about to tell you." Ashley said in a low tone. "Well, you can think that but there's a reason I'm marrying you in September." Nick said. This was all too much for him. Nick was being so accepting of all of this and he had to tell him. "I cheated on you Nick." Ashley said flatly. Nick slowly let go of Ashley's hand and his face was reminiscent of a little kid who was just told that his dog died. "Who?" was all that Nick could muster out while desperately trying to hold back tears "Matt Lillard" Ashley began "but Nick I swear I never meant for it to happen. He kissed me and I tried to make him stop but he kept going and I just kinda got carried away but that's all we did was kiss and it meant nothing to me I swear. Please Nick it's over. I never wanted to hurt you." Ashley said with tears stinging his blue eyes. "How could you? We're about to get married?" Nick said as his voice began to raise. "I know baby I'm sorry but I swear it's over and it meant nothing. My brain kept saying to stop but I just couldn't. I would never do it again though I swear. I'm so sorry." Ashley said "It's a little late for sorry. I need to get out of here. Maybe we should hold off the wedding until we figure out what the hell is going on. Maybe Kevin was right and we're just too young." Nick said now also crying. "Please no! You're all I need baby. You're the best thing that ever happened to me. I need you. I'm so sorry. Goddamnit, why did I do this?" Ashley screamed as he fell to his knees and started to sob uncontrollably while clutching his head in his hands. Nick wanted to just run over to him and hug him and support him but Ashley had broken the trust bond and Nick felt utterly betrayed and all he could think of doing was walking away. And that's exactly what he started to do. Ashley saw him leave and just sat there for about ten minutes wondering how his life had gotten so out of hand. He wasn't sure about anything anymore. He wasn't sure about life in general. He turned around and just started walking as he pulled himself off the beach. He eventually came to a cliff of rocks looking out over the ocean. He glanced out onto the great horizon and wondered where he stood in the large scheme of everything. He may just be a small dot on the large spectrum of life. His life could be meaningless in the large whole of everything. Nick was surely about to dump him. He had betrayed him and let another man into the relationship. He fucked everything up. Life wasn't worth living anymore. He stepped towards the edge and looked down. "What's to live for anymore?" Ashley said out loud. "Love" a voice said from behind. Ashley turned around and saw Dan, his closest friend. "Yeah I had that once. I screwed it up big time though." Ashley said turning back around. "Yeah you did, I'll admit that but love is the greatest emotion in the world. I think it deserves another chance." Dan said with a smile on his face. "It's not up to me now. It's not my decision." Ashley said staring out at the sea. "No, it's ours." Nick whispered in his ear as he wrapped his arms around his fiancée. Ashley turned around and saw a tear-stained face with blue eyes staring back at him. "Oh God I'm so sorry baby. I'll never do it again." Ashley sobbed into Nick's shoulder as he clung onto whatever he could find of Nick. "Come on let's go inside and talk." Nick said as he pulled out of the hug and grabbed his hand and began walking. "Hang on, I just have to take care of one thing." Ashley said as he walked over to Dan. "Nice night huh? I figured I would take a walk and..." Dan began but was cut off as Ashley pulled him into a thank you hug. "After me and Nick figure this out I want you to be my best man." Ashley said "I'd be honored." Dan said "Now go settle this." He said as he let him go and saw him walk out of the distance hand in hand with Nick, a true portrayal of love. "Cute couple huh?" Devon said from behind him Dan was startled a bit. "You scared the hell out of me. But I'm damn glad to see you." He said "I had a feeling you were up to something so I figured I'd follow you for support if you needed it. That was a pretty nice thing you did there." Devon said. "True love deserves it." Dan said as he leaned in and kissed Devon, a sign of their unending and supportive love.
