Date: Sat, 22 Jul 2000 14:39:49 -0700 (PDT) From: It's Gonna Be Me <itsgonnabemestory@yahoo.com> Subject: It's Gonna Be Me - Issue 1 (Boy-Bands Directory) *OPENING GREETING - Hey everyone. My name is James. This is my first time writing a story for the Nifty Archive. I've been an avid reader of a lot of the stories on this wonderful site and I hope that maybe I'll get a few readers as well. I'll quickly give you a premise of the story. Basically it's about *NSYNC and the Backstreet Boys. It will have a lot of twists and turns so I won't tell you who is with who and what not. It will hopefully be unlike anything you've read before. I know it will be hard to keep it unique from everything else, but there is only so much you can do with a *NSYNC/BSB story, right? Haha. Anyways. I would really like to know what people think about this first installment. And if I get any kind of response at all I will continue to write it. You can send any questions/comments/suggestions to ItsGonnaBeMeStory@Yahoo.com Thanks and enjoy!* *DISCLAIMER - You know it. You hate it. But everyone has to do it. I am in no way affiliated with anything to do with *NSYNC and the Backstreet Boys and I am totally unsure of any of their sexualities. Except Kevin and Brian. (Honestly I hope that Brian's future marriage is a cover up but, well, whatever! Hehe) I do not mean to imply that any of the boys are gay even though it might seem like it in the story. Blah, blah, blah, yadda, yadda, yadda, let's get on with the good stuff!* ********************* It's Gonna Be Me ********************* "Justin's dead." JC said solemnly. "What??" Chris said shocked and confused. "He wore my favorite blue shirt again! I'm going to kill him!" JC kept the same tone. "Ohhhh. God! Don't freak me out like that you idiot!" Chris said as he punched JC lightly in the shoulder. "Whatever. You just wait till I find him" JC said as he walked quickly out of the hotel room he and Justin shared. Joey walked into the room as JC was walking out. "Hey JC." Joey spoke quickly "Can't talk. Must kill Justin" JC said in a monotone as he kept walking. Chris heard this and laughed loudly. '' "Holy hell, what's up with him?" Joey asked as he too began to laugh a bit. "Must be that time of the month." Chris said semi-seriously. "Must be." Joey repeated with a smile. ********************* "That's a nice shirt you've got on Justin" Britney Spears said as she sipped on her coffee. "Thanks Brit" Justin said as he stirred his coffee mindlessly. "I like your earrings too. Very snazy!" Britney said trying to start up a conversation. "Ha, thanks" Justin replied looking up. "But enough about you let's talk about me!" Britney said while beginning to giggle lightly. "Hahaha. You always know how to cheer me up Brit." Justin said with a smile. "Well, remember - I was born to make you happy!" Britney said quoting a line from one of her songs. "How corny was that!?" Justin laughed. "But seriously Brit. Thanks. This is really hard for me." He said looking down. "Oh, Justin. Come on! So you're gay! What does it matter? You're still the same old Justin Timberlake that I fell in love with all those years back... only now I know there's no way in hell you loved me back!" Britney said making Justin laugh. "You do know you are the only one that I've told..." He asked her quietly. "Yes I do, and do I ever feel priveledged!" She said with a laugh. "It's just... I know I can really trust you. You've always been there for me. Always.... and I mean, of course the guys are also my best friends..." "You consider me one of your best friends?" Britney asked with a hint of hope in her voice. "... of course Britney!" Justin said taking her hand in his. "I always have and always will." "Awww, I think I'm gonna cry!" Britney said making Justin laugh again. "But anyways, I'm not sure how the guys are gonna take it." Justin said turning back to his worried state. "Justin. If they really are your best friends then they will love you for being you no matter what." Britney said wisely. "This may come as a huge shock to them though. I mean, think about it! 'Teen hearthrob Justin Timberlake - gay!'. It doesn't have a very nice ring to it." Justin said sadly. "Yes it does! Because it's a part of who you are. Besides. Anything goes with the name Timberlake. Even my name! 'Britney Timberlake'. That's what the press thinks will happen anyways." Britney said with a laugh. "But it actually doesn't sound that bad... how 'bout it Just?" Britney said seriously. "..um.. Britney, I um.." Justin started. "Oh for God sakes boy! You think my 'future husband' would be able to tell when I was pulling his leg by now!" Britney said slapping him lightly on the arm. "Ya, you'd THINK so... but you can never tell with you Brit." Justin replied. "To tell you the truth though, if I was straight, and we were getting married, I know I would be really happy with you in my life Brit." Justin said sincerely. "God dammit Justin" Britney snapped. "What??" Justin asked shocked. "You're so cute! Why do you have to be gay!" Britney laughed, making Justin laugh as well. "Wish I could help ya out there Brit but... well, Sorry" Justin smirked. "Alright, alright. Now SERIOUSLY. Let's talk about me!" Britney said seriously. "Haha, ok. So what's new with you? You excited about out big tour with the BSB?" Justin asked curiously. "Of course I am! I mean now that I'll be able to spend more time with my boyfriend and everything..." Britney began and Justin laughed. "Funny Brit. Very funny." "No, I'm serious! Oh, wait. I guess I forgot to tell you." Britney said shyly. "Forgot to tell me what." Justin asked curiously. "Um, do you know who Nick Carter is?" Britney asked. "Of course I do! He's only like the hottest guy in the entire world. God, you don't know how forward I am looking to meeting that guy. His eyes, and his hair..." "...and he's my boyfriend." Britney cut in. "What??" Justin said somewhat angrily. "Well Justin, he's obviously not gay so it's not like you had a chance with him or anything." Britney started. "So." Justin pouted. "Well we met during the concert scheduling meeting that the labels had, which YOU GUYS missed, and I um, thought he was really cute, so I um, just went for it and asked him out." Britney smiled. "And he said yes??" Justin asked surprised. "Hey!" Britney said semi-angrily. "You thought I was pretty good looking at one time so why's he any different??" "Oh, Brit" Justin laughed. "That's not what I meant! You're flippin' gorgeous!" "Oooo, good compliment coming from a guy who thinks my boyfriend is better looking than I am!" Britney said bitterly. "Haha, I guess I'm just upset that the guy I dream about is taken... by one of my best friends... who happens to be you!" Justin said still laughing at Britney's stubborness. "So what you're saying is you wouldn't be as made if it were, say, JC who was in love with Nick?" Britney asked and giggled. "Haha, no! Forget it wise girl" Justin laughed. "So, anyways. When do then guys actually meet up with us here in California to kick off the tour?" Britney asked. "Umm, 2 days... ya this Thursday." Justin replied. "Oh ok... wait a second... Thursday?? 2 days?? That makes today..." "Tuesday..." Justin finished for her "Ohmygod" Britney said quickly over and over. "What time is it Justin??" "Seven o'clock, but why -" "SHIT!" Britney yelled horrified! And started running for the door to the restaurant. "Brit!.... Britney! What is it?" Justin yelled worriedly. Britney stopped in her tracks and spun around. "Oh nothing. My concert only started an hour ago!!" She turned around and started running out into the street. "Where the hell is a taxi when you need one!" "Uh oh" Justin muttered before shouting "Britney, wait up! I have my car here! I'll take you." ********************* "Oh, Justin... ya, ya, ya... oh" Lance panted hard as he stared at the picture he held infront of him. "Oh, God.. so.. so.. hot... ugh" He continued pleasing himself until *KNOCK*KNOCK*KNOCK* "Lance, what the hell are you doing in there?" JC yelled while standing outside the bathroom door in Lance's hotel room. "Ugh, Justin.. er.. Just a second!" Lance yelled. 'God damn it' he thought in his head. "Come on Lansten, we've got to go meet with the backstreet guys in 45 minutes and it takes a half hour to get to the offices!" Lance placed the picture of Justin in his pocket, zipped up, and flushed the toilet so JC wouldn't get the wrong idea. "I know I know.. I'm out. Alright?" Lance said frustrated. "It's about time! God, did you digest a cow or what? I've never seen anyone do their business that long!" JC laughed. "Aw, shut up!" Lance laughed along. "Ready to go? We have to my room and see if Justin's ready." JC asked. "Justin? Um, ya! Let's go!" Lance said a little too excited. "Oookaayy" JC said and gave Lance an odd glare. ********************* "So you're not in too much trouble then?" Justin talked into the phone. "No, thank God my opening act atleast showed up on time. They did an extra 6 unrehearsed songs to make up for the time that I wasnt there for." Britney replied. "That's great." Justin said sincerely. "Ya, I know." Britney said back. "Thanks again for having dinner with me that night, but i'm sorry I made you miss an hour of your concert." Justin said with a little laugh. "No problem Just. Anytime. I had a lot of fun and I know we both learned quite a bit." Britney giggled. "Well I better go. And you should too. We have to meet the guys in like less then an hour or so." Justin said running his hand over his curls. "Oh ya!" Britney said excited. "I get to see my Nicky-poo!" "What??" Justin laughed "Oh, shut up!" Britney yelled. "See you in a bit" She said before hanging up the phone. "Bye" Justin said before also hanging up the phone. Justin got off his bed and put on his shoes. He was lacing them up as he heard a knock at the door. "It's open" Justin yelled loud enough to hear. JC walked in with Lance shyly coming in behind him. "Hey Just." JC said. "Ready to go?" "Hey JC... ya just about." Justin replied. "Hi Justin" Lance said finally opening his mouth. "Hey bud. How's it going?" Justin said looking up with a smile. "Pretty good." Lance said. 'And I would be even better if you felt the same way I feel about you' Lance thought in his head. He then frowned without realizing it. "If that's true, then what's with the upside down smile Scoop?" Justin said witha laugh. "Oh, it's nothing. Forget about it." Lance replied and then put on his best fake smile. "Come on you two, let's get a move on." JC ushered them out the door. Justin jumped across the bed to where Lance was and put his arm around his shoulders. "Come on dude." Justin smiled. Lance smiled wildley and put his arm around Justin's shoulders. 'God he's cute. This feels so good... so right' Lance thought in his head. JC walked behind them, locked the door and closed it behind him after shutting off the lights. ********************* *Well, there you have it.
