Joey's Super Hero - Chapter 3

by JT Poole

* Joey and JT's room *

"Joey stop!!!! What are you doing?!?!?" JT screamed.

"I'm sorry, I am sooooo sorry, I don't know what came over me, I don't know
what possessed me to do that." Joey pleaded.

(<Knock Knock Knock>)

"JT, Joey is everything okay in there?" Chris yelled through the door.

 "Everything is okay, everything is fine." JT spoke.

"Can I come in to be sure?" Chris asked.

"JT, I am sorry, please don't say anything about this, please, oh please, I
will do anything, just keep this between us." Joey pleaded again.

"Joey just let Chris in, so he can look around and go back to sleep." JT
said, as he motioned for Joey to open the door.

"Are you two okay in here? I heard yelling..." Chris spoke.

"I was having a bad dream and I woke up screaming. I am sorry for waking
all of you up, I didn't realize I could scream that loud." JT spoke as he
noticed the other eight people in the hallway.

"Okay I am going back to bed." Chris said as he headed towards the door.

As the others headed back to their rooms, JT gave Joey a long stare, and
then did something he knew he would regret the next day, he telepathically
spoke to Joey and told him that he would keep his secret, but on one
condition, that he didn't do what he did again.

* Lance and Hank's Room *

Lance sat inconspicuously on the leather sofa in the main room of the hotel
room that he shared with his bodyguard Hank Hart. His face was turned
toward the window so that Hank could not see the tears spilling down his
cheeks. He needn't have bothered hiding, however, as it seemed that Hank
was in his own little world. Most of the time he would have been glad that
no one noticed that he cried, but this time, he wanted Hank to notice that
he was crying, to know that he was hurt. But now, after the small spat that
they had earlier this evening, Lance is afraid that he has ruined things
for himself in hopes that he could have found a good friend and a possible
lover in Hank. Unaware of the mixed emotions going on in his own brain,
Hank turned around to notice Lance sitting on the sofa facing the window.

"Lance....Lance are you okay?" Hank asked as he moved over to the sofa to
sit down beside him.

"Hank, I am okay. Are you okay? I didn't mean to hurt your feelings with
that joke I played. I was trying to break

the ice between us. I couldn't think of anything else to do to pull you
into my zany world of music, so I asked JC for some advice and he told me
to do what I thought would get on your good side, so I thought a joke would
do it. It seems that it worked for me and the other guys when I first
joined 'N Sync." Lance said as he started sobbing again.

"Lance don't cry, please stop, or I am gonna start too. I have been crying
for the last hour and I don't think I can cry anymore." Hank spoke to Lance
as he tried wiping away his tears.

"Hank, please don't be mad at me, please forgive me, I didn't mean to hurt
your feelings." Lance spoke while trying to catch his breathe through his
sobbing.

"Lance I am not mad at you, I am mad at me for letting my feelings and
emotions get the best of me. I am a bodyguard I am not supposed to let this
kinda stuff bother me." Hank said.

"What kind of stuff? What was/is bothering you Hank?" Lance asked.

At that moment Hank froze, he didn't know what to say or do. All he could
think of doing was running like a girl and hiding his head somewhere in the
sand. No matter what he thought about or concentrated on, the same thing
that he is trying to get away from was in his mind, the fact that he liked,
possibly even loved Lance. So far nothing could change that outlook for him
and that scared him a little bit because he didn't know how Lance felt,
hell he didn't know if Lance was gay or not.

* Saturday Morning, Justin and Barbara's Room *

"But Britney....Britney......she's only the bodyguard, I chose her because
she was married and she has the same kind of personality as me. But babee,
there is no reason you should be jealous, alright alright already, fine you
two can meet and fight it out or whatever, I don't want nuthin' to do wit
it." Justin said as he hung up his cell phone.

"What's up Curly? I assume that was the girlfriend. She's not happy that
you have a female bodyguard I guess." Barbara said.

"Yeah, that's it Barb, she's been screaming since I told her last night
about you, so she called me this morning to finish the screaming session
that she didn't complete last night." Justin said.

"Well if it's gonna cause a problem for you, I don't think one of the other
guys won't mind changing to be your bodyguard." Barbara spoke up.

"Nah, I like you, I picked you to be my bodyguard because you have the same
personality as me and you are married. I thought that maybe you could tell
me how married life is since I will be heading in that direction soon, or
at least I thought I was." Justin said as he stared at his cell phone.

"Well if you think down the line that this is not gonna work out, let me
and JT know so that we can work around this, I don't want to cause problems
for you and Britney, she seems like a nice and wonderful girl for you."
Barbara said as she picked up her cell phone to call the others.

"Breakfast, breakfast, I must have breakfast." Justin said as he got up off
his bed and headed towards the door.

"Breakfast is in Chris and Wanda's room, they already ordered it and it's
on the way up." Barbara said as she followed Justin out the door.

* Joey and JT's room *

 (<Rinnnnnngggggggggggg>)

"Damn cell phone......Hello...Hello, yeah this is JT, who is this?" JT
spoke into his cell phone.

"You know who this is, where are you? I haven't heard from you in a long
while, what's wrong with you? I thought I was your boyfriend, but yet you
get up and leave and it's been six months already, when are you coming
back" The voice on the phone said.

"Marek, I am not your boyfriend, I will never be your boyfriend. Get it
through your head now leave me alone and stop calling me. The day you tried
to turn me into a comatose weapon, was the day that you lost my love so I
suggest you stop bothering me, it's getting you no where, well maybe a
little closer to jail and maybe another dimension or something if you make
me mad enough, now stop bothering me." JT shouted into the cell phone as he
hung it up.

'He's gay, he's gay, oh my god, he's gay, he had a boyfriend, now he
doesn't have one he's gay, he's gay.' Joey thought as he lied in bed
pretending to be asleep.

"Joey, hey Joey, wake up, it's time for breakfast....god, these guys sleep
like logs." JT giggled.

"I'm up, I'm up, you don't have to poke and prod me like that." Joey said
as he grabbed JT's finger in mid poke.

"Welllll get up, it's time for breakfast and everyone's waiting. You have a
lot to do today, you have an interview at 11:00, then you have a short
photo shoot at 1:00 then the soundcheck at 5:30 and then you guys concert
start at 7:00 so you need to get up so that you can get ready.

"JT may I ask you a question?" Joey asked.

"Sure go ahead, and no I won't kill your childhood bully for you either,
Management told me about that joke you pulled on the other security guards
in the past to get one of them to do it." JT said.

"No it's not that, I wanted to know how you spoke to me in my head this
morning, how did I hear your voice in my mind the way I did." Joey asked as
he looked at JT questionly.

"Joey, what are you talking about?" JT asked, in hopes that he can trick
Joey into thinking he didn't know what he was talking about.

"You know what I am talking about JT, this morning when you told me that
you would keep it secret of what I did this morning, before Chris came into
the room." Joey stated as he looked at JT with wide eyes.

"Are you still hungover Joey? You did have a lot to drink last night when
you guys went out to the club." JT spoke to Joey.

"JT!! Damn it, JT I know what happened, I am not crazy or anything. And I
am not drunk!!!!" Joey yelled.

"Well you just said you heard my voice in your mind, I call it like I see
it, if your heard my voice you were either dreaming, drunk or either you
are loosing your mind. Take your pick." JT spoke as he looked at Joey
surprised.

"If you want to play it that way fine, I know something is strange about
you and I am going to find out what it is." Joey said as he headed towards
the bathroom.

'Damn, now he's gonna be too suspicious. I don't want to try erasing more
of his memories, I don't want him to develop brain damage or
something. Damn Damn Damn.' JT thought to himself.

"I am going to breakfast, I will see you in Chris and Wanda's room." JT
spoke as he headed towards the door.

* In the bathroom *

Joey opened the shower door to start the water. While the shower was going,
Joey decided that he needed a new look, a look that would get him attention
from JT, a look that he think JT would surely like. Joey knew what he had
to do and he did it.

"That was the best shower I have had in a week, I guess I need to act like
this a lot, so I can shower like this a lot." Joey said to himself.

* Chris and Wanda's Room *

"Look, I know it was you that did it, please excuse yourself the next time
you decide to break wind like that and kill us all Chris." Wanda stated
while she was pretending to gag and everyone else laughing at Chris'
embarrassed look.

"I didn't do it, Lance did it, he looks like he's gassy, why blame me when
I didn't do it Wanda." Chris said with a pleading look of innocence on his
face.

"Don't blame me, I didn't do it, i haven't eaten anything yet to be gassy
or anything, so don't place blame on me to pull it off of yourself
Christopher!" Lance shouted.

"Oh my, you guys are too much. You make little stinkies and then you want
to blame other people for your actions, you guys know that's not the moral
way to conduct yourselves." Tyler spoke.

"Hey, what do you mean moral, what are you a priest or something, excuse me
if I am mistaken, but weren't you the guy that leaned over Wanda and
Barbara to get a soda in the limo last night without saying anything..." JC
barked.

"Calm down people, what's going on in here?" JT spoke as he entered the
room.

"Well Chris farted, then Wanda made a comment about it, then Chris blamed
Lance for it, then Lance shouted at him for it, then Tyler spoke up then JC
took offense to it and then you walked in." Hank spoke up.

"Well thank you Onyx for that small summary of everything that happened in
everyone's life, could you be more of a tattletale or what...I bet the
teachers like you in school." Barbara spoke then cringed when she realized
what she said.

"What did you call him Barbara? Who is Onyx?" Lance asked.

"It's just a nickname that everyone calls me, because I used to be so
serious and I can't remember who thought of that name." Hank said hoping
that his explanation would be enough while he glared at Barbara.

"Sorry, damn, it like slipped out. Sue me or something." Barbara said as
she walked over to JT and handed him a folder.

"Well Hank, lighten up, you act like we are picking on you or something..."
JT said as Joey entered the room behind him.

JT continued to talk as he noticed that everyone had stopped talking and
that everyone was looking at him or looking past him, so he turned around
and was shocked when he saw that Joey was standing there with blue and
black hair and his goatee was shaven off.

"Oh My God!!! What have you done to your head Joey?" Lance asked as he
walked back to the couch and sat back down.

"You all can close your mouthes now, nothing you haven't seen before, you
act like I haven't changed my hair color before." Joey said, as he walked
the rest of the way into the room and picked up plate and started piling
food onto it.

"Joey, your hair is blue and black. When you dyed it red the last time it
was for publicity because it was something new, but now, we don't need the
publicity, what's is running through that brain of yours Joe?" JC asked as
he stared at Joey's head and face.

"Lay off the hair JC, no one said anything to Chris when he went back to
the dreeds, why so anything to me because of a little bit of color. I am
not in the mood for this, so let's just finish eating to we can get on with
our day." Joey said as he found a place to sit on the couch besides Lance.
