Dizzy



Andrew swam back and forth the length of the pool until his muscles felt
weak. As he tread water in the center of the pool, he felt an odd tingling
sensation in his right arm. His arm went numb and his stomach filled with a
sense of dread. His head went beneath the surface of the water, his mouth
filling with water. He kicked upward and gasped for breath as his head
emerged. He tried to scream but he went under again, his legs too tired to
support him. He felt someone's arms wrap around his chest and begin pulling
him upward. He felt cold as the air touched his moist skin and he inhaled
deeply after coughing up water.

"Are you ok?" Andrew heard a familiar voice say as he struggled to catch
his breath. "Should I call someone?"

Andrew opened his eyes and was face to face with familiar green ones.
"You...you're...I know you..." he said between coughs.

The green eyes widened and a smile emerged from the frightened face. "Hey,
I haven't seen you since you fainted from all the hotness around you at the
concert."

Andrew looked at Lance confused. Lance laughed at him and helped him sit
up. "I meant it as a joke. You must still be out of it huh."

"Oh yeah." Andrew said as he finally caught on to what Lance had said.
"What are you doin' here? I thought N*Sync left after the concert."

"Well I got stranded here after my flight got delayed because of the
weather. If Joey hadn't slept through his flight, I would be out on the
streets. He was still sleeping in his hotel room when I came back to get a
room." Lance explained.

"Uh huh and you just happened to be swimmin' in the hotel pool on Christmas
day?" Andrew asked, his voice laced with skepticism.

"Well I can't be with my family so why not go swimming? Why are you
swimming on Christmas day?" Lance countered without missing a beat.

"I'm on break from work. But I still find it totally unbelievable that I
ran into you here especially since you ain't wearing trunks and you got no
towel to dry off with." Andrew said.

"Nothing gets by you does it?" Lance said sheepishly. "All right...so I got
word that you were here today and I went by the restaurant to see you and
the blonde girl with the huge rack that didn't get my coming out interview
told me you were here."

"Uh huh and just who told you to keep an eye on me today?"

"No it's not like that...I mean...I was asked to check on you but that was
it...I promise." Lance stammered.

Andrew sighed. "So I take it you know then."

"I know something is wrong but it's not place to pry besides after you
collapsed twice, I know that something is up. Drew told me they were
staying with you and asked me to keep him apprised of how you were and when
you were supposed to be leaving to go home. He called me this morning and
told me all about you except for the mystery. Guess I'm not good at covert
secrecy." Lance said with a grin.

Andrew stood up and went to the locker room, Lance following behind
him. They continued to talk while Andrew led Lance to the housekeeping
area. He handed Lance a towel and watched the hunky singer stripped naked
in front of him. Andrew couldn't help but peek at the amazing body Lance
had from years of dancing and the extra work he put into his body for the
whole astronaut venture he tried. Andrew also noticed he was not as
muscular as Drew but still had an awesome body. Lance told him about his
conversation with Drew as he wrapped a towel around his waist. Andrew threw
Lance's wet clothes into a dryer and the two went to the sauna. Andrew felt
comfortable hanging out with Lance, especially knowing that Drew told Lance
about him and their feelings for each other.

"So, I know you are from the south. Mississippi by any chance?" Lance asked
earnestly.

"No...North Carolina. My entire family is from England though. They moved
here when I was born...so I'm the only one with a southern accent. They're
all prim and proper and sometimes I feel like I don't belong to
`em. Working here in the hotel, I know I fit in as far as money and
background, but sometimes I hear people talk about how low class I sound as
if I was raised in the backwoods or somethin'. Most of the time though,
people find the accent real charmin'."

"So a good ol' southern boy trying to make it in the big city?" Lance asked
teasing Andrew.

"No...I came here from college...too many bad memories in North Carolina."
Andrew said. "I'm a psych major. I want to work as a counselor helpin'
families struggling with losing loved ones."

"That's admirable." Lance said. "It's just...you sound like it's not your
first choice."

Andrew laughed. "You're good. I wish I could read people half as good as
you. That will really help me when I start workin' as a counselor. My first
love...is dance. I took ballroom dancing lessons for years and I always
wanted to be a dancer. I competed in competitions up until I lost my
parents."

"So ballroom huh? That would've helped me when I was on Dancing with the
Stars." Lance said jokingly.

"Whatever...you did fine. I voted for you every week and Joey too...and of
course Drew." Andrew said laughing. "I love ballroom dance though. It's
so...romantic, so sensual. I wanted to go to an arts school for college to
major in dance but since I gave it up before high school, I figured I
didn't have a prayer of gettin' in."

When they were dry and dressed about an hour later, Andrew and Lance made
their way back to the restaurant where Morgan seemed to be going crazy.

"Andrew...Andrew...you have had like twenty phone calls and someone called
from room 2302 requesting you specifically bring them room service up
and..." Morgan said quickly until she spotted Lance. She bumped Andrew out
of the way and got in Lance's face. "I see you came back for me handsome."

Andrew laughed and grabbed Morgan's blonde ponytail, bringing her two steps
away from Lance. "He don't want you girl."

"Whatever...everyone wants me...trust me Lance..." she paused as she licked
her lips. "I'm good at what I do."

Lance looked at her then at Andrew, who shrugged and rolled his eyes before
walking away. "Sorry Morgan...I think I'll pass."

Morgan looked defeated as she grabbed a tray of food off the bar. "Here
Andrew...2302's order; have fun whore."

"2302? That's mine and Joey's room. I'll take it and leave you alone so you
can work and I won't tell Drew about the near drowning in the pool...as
long as you call him and check in. Oh and he wants to know when you are
getting off work." Lance said as he grabbed Joey's food and left the
restaurant.

Morgan walked over to Andrew. "Uh huh...you are such a whore."

"I will fire you." Andrew said as he reached behind the bar and pulled out
his cell phone. Looking at it, he had twenty missed calls from Heather,
Abbey, and Drew and a dozen texts from Drew, Emma, and Heather. He called
the number listed as Drew and waited for the other end to pick up.





Drew was sitting in Andrew's apartment with his bandmates and Emma. They
had decided to exchange presents since it was Christmas Day. After everyone
had opened all of the gifts, Drew looked over to Emma who was sitting on
the couch looking out the window. She was the odd one out as she was here
with no friends and away from her family. Her brother Hunter had decided to
leave that morning to head home to their house instead of staying with her
at Andrew's. He couldn't handle Andrew's decision to fall so in love with
Drew so fast and it was taking its toll on Emma. Drew moved over to her.

"Hey, are you ok?" he asked sincerely as she looked to him.

"Yeah I'm fine. I just can't believe Hunter would take off like that. He
should be happy for Andrew." Emma said sadly.

"Well, maybe he just misses your parents?" Drew offered in hopes of
cheering the young girl up.

"No, he hates being there. He always finds some excuse to get away from the
house. I think he is just mad that I decided to transfer schools and move
here to be closer to Andrew so he took the car and left. He will make it
home sometime tonight around midnight as long as he doesn't run into any
trouble. I hope he will be ok."

"Really? Does Andrew know?" Drew asked, surprised by Emma's willingness to
help out her best friend.

"No, I haven't told him yet. He's always been so independent and always
trying to do everything himself."

"What do you mean?"

"Realistically, there were only two scenarios that could play out when I
made the decision to transfer colleges. One, he would not seek treatment
and just wither away into nothingness. In that case, he would need someone
to settle his affairs when the time came and to make sure his final wishes
were met."

"And the second?" Drew asked.

"Chemotherapy takes a toll on one's body. I'm going into medical school and
focusing on oncology. If he gets help, it's not a sure thing and he will
get sick and be weak and I knew he would need someone to help him do
everyday things." Emma said, her eyes tearing up.

"It sounds like he's lucky to have you as a friend." Drew said to Emma.

"Well, it sort of just landed in my lap. I mean, don't get me wrong I would
do anything for him. I know my parents love him as if he were their own and
couldn't bear to watch what he would have to go through and Hunter just
isn't responsible enough to do anything adult."

"So you basically are the only one who can step up to the plate?"

"Yeah, I mean Heather and Abbey have their own families and lives and it's
too much to ask of someone who hasn't been friends with him that long even
though I'm sure they would do whatever they could. I'm the logical choice
and so I transferred schools."

"You sound like you are trying to convince yourself." Drew said.

"In a way I am. I don't know if I am strong enough to do it. I don't know
if I can stay here and watch what is going to happen but I know he would do
the same for me...for my family and so I will be strong for him." Emma said
before crying full on into Drew's chest.

Her sobbing got the attention of the others; especially Jeff who came over
to her to console her. He took her from Drew and hugged her tightly, gently
stroking her hair. Drew's cell phone rang and he reached on the table to
pick it up.

"How did your number get in my phone?" Andrew asked before Drew could even
say hello.

"Well hi to you too." Drew said cheerily. "I programmed it in there last
night after you fell asleep and put your number in mine. I hope that's ok."

Andrew smiled. "You are too much you know that. And by the way, Lance came
by to see me and told me to pass along to you the message of me being ok
and that he isn't going to spy for you anymore."

"Well I thought that if I came down there, you would get upset. He was
supposed to be discreet..."

"It's ok...I know you're worried but I'm fine." Andrew said as he rubbed
his still numb right arm. "So why am I supposed to let you know when I'm
coming home?"

"Oh...no reason...inquiring minds want to know."

"You are such a bad liar Andrew John Lachey."

"How the hell do you know my full name?" Drew said laughing hysterically.

"The internet...but nevermind that. My point is you better not have
anything up your sleeve." Andrew said before bidding Drew goodbye and
flipping his phone closed.

Andrew glanced over and saw Morgan grinning at him. "What?" he said to his
friend as he walked around the restaurant bored.

"You like him...don't you?" she said childishly.

"I like you...cleanin' the windows and the floors and the table legs..."
Andrew said laughing.





Drew hung up the phone and looked over to Emma. "So tell me more about
Andrew. I want to surprise him when he gets home. What does he like?"

Emma laughed. "Don't you think he should tell you stuff like that?"

"I know...I know but we haven't spent that much one on one time yet. I
wanna do something special to impress him."

"I don't think you need to impress him bro." Nick said encouragingly.

"Yeah he has been totally crushing on you since 98 Degrees first came out."
Emma said. "I think just meeting you was a dream come true for him but if
you really feel the need to do something special, he has always had a soft
spot for romance."

"Awesome...I have the perfect idea then." Drew said smiling widely as he
saw a text message on his phone from Lance.





Since it was Christmas day, room service and the restaurant closed at
5:00. It was getting darker outside as Andrew bid goodbye to the employees
and locked up the restaurant. It was definitely colder outside with the sun
going down and Andrew pulled his jacket tighter around him.

"Need an escort mister?" Andrew heard from behind. He rolled his eyes and
sighed heavily before turning around and seeing Drew waiting for him.

"Depends on how much you givin'." Andrew said smiling. Drew walked over and
hugged him tightly.

"I missed you today." He said to Andrew as he held him in a tight embrace.

"Did you really miss me or did you just get sick of hangin' out with the
same people you spend most of your days with?" Andrew asked playfully
causing Drew to squeeze him tighter in retaliation.

"So...let's get you home." Drew said grabbing Andrew's hand and leading him
down the sidewalk towards Andrew's apartment.

Once they got to Andrew's apartment, Drew opened the door and ushered him
in. Andrew looked around and saw his candles lit and spread all over the
apartment. On the kitchen table, Andrew saw two plates of steak and
potatoes sitting with two glasses of red wine.

"Merry Christmas baby." Drew whispered from behind into Andrew's ear as he
wrapped his arms around Andrew's waist.

Andrew was speechless and watched as Drew walked over to the stereo system
and put on some familiar music causing Andrew to look at him quizzically.

"Don't tell me you don't know this song. It's part of your collection."
Drew said softly as he took Andrew by the hand and pulled him into him and
swayed back and forth slowly.

"Clair de Lune, Debussy. I know it...but I guess I'm just surprised you
do." Andrew said as he and Drew danced slowly.

"It's a good song to dance to." Drew said which caused Andrew to pull back
and look at him. "Just what are you up to Mr. Lachey?"

"Romancing you...is it working?" Drew said slyly.

"I don't know...I mean...I've seen your ballroom skills...I don't think you
could keep up with me." Andrew said teasing.

"Ha...ha..." Drew said as he motioned to the table and led Andrew to one of
the chairs. "How bout we eat before the food gets cold?"

"Well Mr. Lachey, I must say I am impressed." Andrew said as he took a bite
of the steak. "The perfect medium steak, my favorite song, tempting me with
the ballroom dancing, Emma and Lance really did you a favor didn't they?"

"Well, I wanted to surprise you." Drew said sheepishly.

"Where is everyone else?"

"They are crashing with Lance and Joey at the hotel tonight."

"Wow, you must owe them big time then." Andrew said coyly. "I think that we
should make sure that it was well worth it."

Andrew stood up and walked toward the bedroom, taking off his shirt and
motioning for Drew to follow him. Drew smiled wickedly and stood up.
