*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 - Think about it though! One of them has to be gay!
You don't spend 5 years on a bus with 4 other hot guys and not get a little
curious! LOL) 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 - Part 4
*********************

"I've wanted to do that for sooo long" Lance said in a near whisper. He
smiled and rubbed his thumb on Justin's cheek. "You're so gorgeous" Lance
said, his smile widening.

"Um, I don't know what to say... uh, thanks Lance." Justin replied quietly.

"Just stating the truth." Lance smiled.

"Wanna know something?" Justin asked with a straight face.

"What?" Lance said.

"You're real cute." Justin giggled.

He leaned in and pecked Lance on the lips. If Lance smiled any wider he
would have had dimples in his ears. He began to get teary-eyed.

"What's the matter?" Justin asked as he rubbed the tears from Lance's eyes
with his fingers.

"I just can't believe that this is finally happening..." Lance started. "I
mean, I've loved you for so long and now I know that you have feelings for
me too... I couldn't ask for anything more."

"What about this?" Justin asked and then pulled Lance towards him and gave
him a long and lucious kiss. Justin pulled back and had a huge grin on his
face.

"God I love you!!" Lance shouted and pulled Justin into a big hug.

Justin laughed and hugged Lance rubbing his hands all over his back.

"So where do we go from here?" Lance asked shyly.

"Well maybe we should tell the guys that we're a couple..." Justin smiled.

Lance's eyes flew open and he pulled Justin into another hug as Justin
laughed loudly.

*********************

"What do you think is going on out there?" Brian asked Nick as he kept his
eyes on the closed door.

"I'm betting their toungue tied. You know, lip locking, playing tonsil
tennis, toungue hockey, swapping saliva, touching tastebuds - "

"I got it!!" Brian shouted.

Nick laughed.

"Geez, Brian. You'd think you really had feelings for Lance..." Nick
started.

"So what if I do!" Brian yelled.

"What? You do? But how? You just met the guy yesterday! Plus if you haven't
noticed he seems to hate your guts!" Nick questioned him.

"Exactly! He just met me, which means he still has time to get to know me
better. I'm a nice guy!... Aren't I Nick...Nick??"

"Of course you are Brian... but, well, you can be a little obsessive at
times" Nick looked down.

"Oh, shut up.. that's bull" Brian laughed a bit.

"Well, Bri, remember the time you had that little crush on me?" Nick asked.

"Had? I still do and always will Nicky" Brian smiled.

"Ya, well remember how you used to be like my shadow? You didn't leave me
alone for more than 5 minutes and that was when I was going to the
bathroom!" Nick began to get frustrated as memories of Brian came flooding
back to him.

"I can't help that Nick. When I see something I want I go for it... and I
don't give up until I get it... and this time won't be any different."
Brian said a bit un-nerved.

"Brian don't! Besides. You saw me, wanted me, and DIDN'T GET ME! So don't
even try. If Lance and Justin have something going on then let them be
happy! Don't interfere in their -"

"If there something going on, then I'll be the one to stop it!" Brian
yelled. He got up and went to leave the room. He opened the door and found
Justin and Lance in a deep and passionate kiss.

"Ahem!" Brian cleared his throught to interupt the two.

Justin's eyes shot open and he pulled away from Lance quickly. He looked
around and saw Brian with his arms folded and one eyebrow raised.

"Would it be inpolite to ask WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON HERE?" Brian yelled
as loud as he could. JC, AJ, Chris, Kevin, Joey, and Howie all bolted out
of their rooms to see what had happened. Brian had succeded in his first
step to pulling Justin and Lance apart.

"What - what happened?" Kevin asked out of breath.

Justin and Lance looked at Brian with pleading eyes. Brian ignored them.

"I just saw Lance and Justin making out in the middle of this hallway!"
Brian shouted pretending to be shocked.

"What??" Chris shouted.

"Is that true, J?" Joey asked.

"Guys, I... I.. I didn't want you to find out like this." Justin's eyes
welled up with tears and he ran into his room where Nick had been sitting
on the edge of the bed listening to the whole situation. He shook his head
and embraced Justin as he entered the room.

"I'm so, so sorry Just." Nick said in a soothing voice. "Brian can be a
real asshole sometimes."

Justin just put his head on Nick's shoulder and balled his eyes out.

*********************

"So, um, Lance... does this mean you and Justin are, uh.. you know -" Howie
started.

"Gay?" Lance asked looking up. "Yes. Yes we are gay and yes we are a
couple." Lance's eyes returned to the floor.

"Well it's about fucking time you guys busted out of the closet!" Joey
shouted with a smile.

Lance's head shot up and looked confused... "What?" He questioned.

"We have been waiting for you and Justin to get together for like.. ever!"
Chris finished for Joey.

"But.. but... What?" Their words were flying over Lance's head like a 747
jet.

"You guys were always going off alone together, giving each other googly,
lovey-dovey eyes and all that mushy stuff... I guess we've known it all
along... and i guess you didn't! But now it's official!" Chris laughed. JC
remained silent through the whole ordeal.

"So, you.. you guys are okay with it?" Lance asked shyly.

"Of course we are... why wouldn't we be? You're still just... well YOU! But
now you're just gonna be making out with another band member!...I guess"
Joey said almost confusing himself.

"That's great! JC, Chris? You guys are ok too?" Lance asked a little
unsure. Chris smiled and nodded and JC just gave a small tilt of his head.

"Oh, this is too perfect! Backstreet? What about you?" Lance became a
little less happy.

"Hell ya!? That would be kind of hypocrtical of us if we didn't accept
you.... Brian's gay ya know..." AJ said.

"I guess I did kind of figure that out... He did drop a lot of hints..."
Lance gave Brian an evil look.

Chris and Joey just stared wide eyed. JC had a huge smile painted across
his face.

"Well... I'm glad all that stuff is out of the way" Brian smiled. "Aren't
you glad to get the off of your chest Lance?" Brian said as he ran his
fingers over Lance's pecs.

"Oh, Brian.. thank you so much for bringing everyone out here..." Lance
said seductivly as he moved closer to Brian. "You're just so.. so
considerate." Brian smiled as Lance ran his finger from Brian's chest to
his stomach. "YOU SNEAKY ASSHOLE!!" Lance drove Brian in the stomach as
hard as he could. Brian doubled over in pain and Lance stepped over him and
walked into Justin and Nick's room leaving everyone with their jaws dropped
and Brian on the floor.

*********************

"Justin, come here" Lance said with open arms. Justin let go of Nick and
turned around and walked towards Lance. He hugged him tightly.

"What.. what did they say?" Justin asked between sobs.

"Well...they're totally fine with it and they're really happy for us."
Lance said with a straight face.

Justin's head shot up from Lance's shoulder and he shouted "Really??"

"Yep!" Lance smiled.

"That's so great Lance!" Justin said excitedly.

"Sure is... we can finally be together." Lance said as he looked into
Justin's eyes.

"Finally." Justin repeated as he leaned in and kissed Lance softly on the
lips.

*********************

"So you're finally coming to stay at our hotel?" Nick asked into the phone.

"Yes... I finally get to be with you Nicky." Britney replied happily.

"It's about time... I mean, the kick-off concert is tomorrow."

Justin was at the foot of his bed packing up his things so he could move to
Lance and Brian's room. Brian and Justin had decided... actually Justin
decided that it would be better if he and Lance shared a room together so
they could develop their newly begun relationship...that and Lance said if
he had to spend one more night with Brian's sexual harrasment that he would
'rip out Brian's eyes and shove them down his pants so he could watch him
kick the crap out of him.' Lance tried to stay the week with Brian in his
room but it was just not happening. It had been a very interesting week.

"Well, I'd better get going." Nick said as he plopped down onto the bed.

"Alright. I'll see you tomorrow Nick... love you" Britney said almost
shyly.

"Ok.. bye" Nick said quickly and hung up the receiver.

"What was that all about?" Justin asked looking straight at Nick.

"What was all what about?" Nick asked as if he had no clue.

"That... you slamming the phone down so quick." Justin elaborated.

"Oh nothing, she had to go and so did I and so I just went to hang up the
phone and I guess my arm slipped and oh god Justin she said she loved me!"
Nick said a mile a minute.

"Sssoooo... Girlfriends generally love their boyfriends." Justin asked
confused.

"The thing is though, I couldn't say 'I love you' back! Cause I don't! It
would be like lying to her." Nick spoke slowly.

"Well, that is a bit of a problem I guess but I mean with the feelings you
have for her now -" Justin started.

"That's just the thing Justin, I don't feel anything for her! At all!" Nick
spoke as if he were ahsamed.

"But, Nick... you're her boyfriend, how could you not -"

"I just don't ok. I don't know. She's an amazingly great and wonderful girl
who I LOVE spending time with but I don't have any feelings for her
what-so-ever!" Nick looked down to the floor.

"Why though Nick? I mean, are you just not ready for a relationship right
now or what?" Justin asked.

"No, I don't think that's it." Nick replied.

"Then what?"

"I think it's because I've got feelings for someone else... that I didn't
know where there until recently... and that's why I can't say I love
Britney..." Nick tried to offer an explination.

"Well who is this other person you have feelings for Nick?"

"Well, it's um... it's you."

*********************

Ooooo... had to leave it there. You hate me now don't you? Hehe.

Will Brian get over Lance and let him be happy? Will Nick get over Justin
and let him be happy? How will Justin react to Nick's confession? Will JC
become involved in this twisted ol' game of love? Tune in next time for
another episode... er issue rather of It's Gonna Be Me.
