Foolish Beat - Chapter 19

by JT Poole

*Georgia Dome - 'N Sync Dressing Room *

"Honey, honey I brought you back what I can find, here are some sandwiches
and a bottled water. I hope this holds you over until after the concert. We
are getting ready for the duet numbers, then we will be ready to head out
since we did the meet and greets first." Joey stated handing Sean the items
he brought back for him.

"Justin, Justin come on, your duet with Nick will be first. Come on and get
ready." Lance spoke as they were heading towards the door.

"I'm coming, I need to talk to Sean first. It won't take me long." Justin
stated as the others left the room. "Sean, are you okay? You don't look so
good." Justin spoke.

"I am fine, I am just a little tired. Believe me, I will be fine after we
get back to the hotel. What is it that you wanted to talk to me about
Justin?" Sean asked.

"Lance, I want to talk about Lance. I think he's setting JC up, and I think
he's going to do something very bad." Justin stated.

"Justin look, Lance is not out to hurt JC. I know you don't like some of
the things that Lance did previously, but give him a chance. If JC is
giving him a chance, why don't you give him that same chance. When Lance
does something to slip up, if he slips up, then you can think something is
up, but until then, could you please give him a chance." Sean stated.

"Sean, I..I don't know. I still don't trust him. It is very strange for a
guy that hated homosexuals a couple of days ago, to end up being in a
relationship with one." Justin stated as Sean got up and walked him to the
door.

"Justin, lets just see what happens. But right now, you have a song to sing
with Nick, so get to it." Sean stated patting Justin on the back.

* Backstage *

"Kevin can I talk to you for a moment? It's very important that we settle
something." Chris stated.

"What's up Chris, what's wrong? What do we need to settle?" Kevin asked.

"Do you have a problem with me and Brian getting married? I know your
family is so religious and everything, but I love him and I don't want
anything to stand in our way." Chris stated.

"I have no problem with you two getting married at all, what gave you the
idea that I wasn't okay with it?" Kevin asked sitting down besides Chris.

"Well, first off, in the past whenever I asked Brian to marry me, he always
had a reason not to and your name always came up, second, whenever someone
managed to say something about us getting married and you were in the room,
you always tense up, I notice these things Kevin and I want to know why
this is affecting you so much." Chris asked.

"It's affecting me so much because me and Brian were so close and he never
told me about the relationship you two had. I thought he valued our
closeness more than that." Kevin stated as he put his head down.

"Excuse me, can you two tell me where Nick Carter is?" the young man asked
walking up to Kevin and Chris, interrupting their conversation. "I need to
deliver this letter to him." Damien stated starring at Kevin and Chris.

"Nick is on stage performing his number right now, I can get the letter to
him." Kevin stated.

"I am sorry sir, but I have been instructed to give the letter to Nick
directly. I am sure that you can do the task, but I am under orders to give
it to him and only him." Damien spoke again.

"Well you will have to wait until he's done performing on stage. Who are
you? Are you a friend of Nick's, do you work for the company?" Kevin asks.

"No, No, I don't work for your company and I am not a friend of his, I am
employed through Maguire Enterprises. My name is Damien Lars and I am here
now by the direction of Tobey Maguire to deliver this letter to Nick
Carter." Damien explained.

"Okay, is this the same guy that just played the role of Spider Man?" Chris
asked.

"Yes sir, the very same man." Damien spoke.

"Cool, I loved that movie." Chris spoke.

"I am quite sure Mister Maguire is happy that you enjoyed the movie."
Damien spoke again. "Would it be okay for me to wait back here to deliver
the letter to Mr. Carter?" Damien asks as Sean walks over to the men
talking.

"Sure, it's okay with us, just don't get into anyone's way while you are
back here." Kevin spoke.

"Hello guys, who do we have here?" Sean asks.

"Sean this is Damien Lars, he is here to deliver a letter to Nick." Kevin
spoke as he and Chris stood up. "Chris we will finish our talk later."
Kevin stated.

"Yes we will." Chris stated walking in the direction towards the stage,
since it was time for him and Howie to perform a song together.

"So you are here to see Nick, is there something wrong? Is he in any
trouble?" Sean asked looking at the man intently.

"No, no, he's not in any trouble. Mr. Maguire wanted me to deliver this
letter to him, I am quite sure it is a friendly matter." Damien stated
smiling.

"Okay, well if you need any assistance, I will be in the room right over
there." Sean pointed, as he walked into the guys dressing room.

* On the Stage *

"I hope you guys have enjoyed the show up to this point, we will take a
small intermission and we will be back for the final number." Justin spoke
into the microphone getting screams from the fans all around.

The guys all left the stage heading towards the backstage area. The were
happy about getting ready to perform the last song of this concert so that
they could return to the hotel to rest before moving on to the next
destination. Walking behind the curtain, Lance pulled JC into a corner of
the stage and started making out, not caring who or what saw them, causing
Justin to totally freak out.

"What the hell are you two doing!" Justin screamed walking by JC and Lance.

"What does it look like Curly, we are kissing, duh!" Lance spoke dripping
with sarcasm in his voice.

"What's going on, what's the big commotion? " Sean asked walking out of the
dressing room after hearing the outburst.

"We were barely off stage when freaknoid here grabs JC and starts kissing
him!" Justin screamed. "What if someone saw them, you know what Johnny said
about keeping things under wraps!" Just spoke as the other guys walked back
over to see what was going on.

"Maybe you guys haven't noticed, but we have new people back here, now is
not a good time to discuss any of this. Let's just head into the dressing
rooms and talk in there." Sean stated as Damien approached Nick and
requested a private moment with him.

* Down the Corridor *

"What is it that you wanted to talk to me about Mr. Lars? I have no idea
why Tobey Maguire would send me a letter." Nick spoke.

"Mr. Carter, Mr. Maguire instructed me to give this letter to you and he
also request that I invite you to dinner at his estate in Durham North
Carolina since it's one of the stops on your tour. He has included a
business card with all his contact information if you accept his offer, and
hopefully the letter will tell you more." Damien stated shaking Nick's
hand.

"Thank you for bringing me the letter. I will read his letter and if I have
time for the dinner engagement, I will join him." Nick stated as Damien
smiled at him and turned to walk away.

* Back in N Sync's Dressing Room *

"Anyone could have seen them, anyone could see that, it was right there, we
were barely off the fucking stage!" Justin screamed.

"Justin what is your damn problem?! You have been freaking out every chance
you got and I can't take it anymore!" Lance stated as he started pacing in
the corner.

"I am not happy about this! You have some kind of secret agenda, you are
going to do something to hurt Josh or fuck up the group! I don't believe
you have feelings for him Lance, just a couple of days ago, you couldn't
stomach the fact that Joey and Sean were dating and Chris and Brian were
getting married! Now all of a sudden, you are 'dating' JC and acting like
two teenagers that just discovered what sex was!" Justin screamed.

"Yeah so what! Isn't that what boyfriends do? Don't they act like that? Me
and JC said that we wanted to explore our feelings for each other and
that's what we are damn doing!" Lance shouted back.

"Okay, okay you two calm down. What goes on between Lance and JC is their
business Justin, but as you said, someone could have seen them, that's when
it becomes my business, but other than that, what they do out of the public
eye or behind closed doors doesn't concern you Justin, let them handle the
relationship they have, and you handle your own things Justin, I am quite
sure that JC and Lance can do that, without your intervention." Sean stated
walking over to Joey and kissing him on the cheek.

"Justin believe me when I say, I do have feelings for JC and I am exploring
those feelings. How many times do I need to apologize for my previous
actions?" Lance asked.

"Wait a minute! Justin, we need to go outside and talk!" JC shouted as he
grabbed Justin by the arm and walked towards the door pulling him along.

* Backstreet Boys Dressing Room *

"So Nick, what was that letter thing all about? That guy was so adamant
about giving it only to you, I was almost ready to slap him for his
snobbish attitude." Kevin stated walking over to Nick.

"Oh it was nothing, just someone wanting to have dinner with me." Nick
stated as he walked away to get his things.
