"Mr. Taylor, my name is Peter McCain, and I represent a management firm
called The FIRM.  I am here at there and Lance Bass's request, May I come
in...............
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Chapter 6:

I stood there in the door in total shock.

"Sure, come in" I said.

Peter McCain walked in and I lead him to the den and I sat on the sofa and
him on the chair just across from me.

"Mr. Taylor, let me explain, there is no problem here, at Lance's request
and to fill the need that their management had, I am here to offer you a
job.  The Firm has wanted to add a counselor to the boys touring staff and
Lance knew of this.  He explained to me what happened at your last job and
based on the information we have been able to obtain you seem to be the
type of person we are looking for."

Peter stopped there and looked at me like he was waiting for some type of
intelligent response from me.  I could not for the life of me say anything.
I am in total shock, here this guy is, offering me a job to be with Lance
all the time and I cannot speak.  I finally came around and said

"OK, tell me about what you are looking for me to do and........"

I trailed off because of the huge grin he had.

"What's so funny" I asked?

"Well evidently Lance was as secretive as ever, I know that because of the
look you gave me at the door and then again when we sat down and explained
why I was here, you did not know he has done this, huh" he replied.

" I am totally in the dark here" I replied.

"Well let me clue you in" he replied " I know about Lance and how he feels
about you.  When he asked me to do this I asked him if you were special and
he told me more than JC was and that suprised me.  Him and JC were
inseparable, so when he told me you meant more to him than JC, I knew you
were something special to him.  After I did the investigation on you I
found out that a lot of people think you are special, especially your old
boss. She was quite praising of you and I think Lance is totally right
about you and I hope you will come to work for me and the guys."

He stopped, set back and looked at me.

"Well, Peter", I replied "I think Lance is a special person as well.  Now,
one question I have, What will I be doing for the guys?  You seem to know
about my relationship with Lance, so you know, he is trying to get his
boyfriend with him."

"Well, Tam", Peter replied, "I know Lance well enough to know that I trust
his judgment.  Now as far as what you will be doing, it is simple, you will
go on tour with them, and when the pressure of touring gets too much the 6
of you will sit down and you will help them work through the problems.  All
we ask is that you keep everything confidential and if you are asked why
you are with them you tell them that you are there to help the guys with
any touring problems.  We also ask that you and Lance refrain from any
public displays of affection.  In other words no kissing or hand hold in
public. You will travel on the same bus as the guys and will room with
them, that way you know exactly what is going on."

"Do the rest of the guys know about this" I asked.

"Why don't you ask them yourself" he replied.

At that moment there was a knock on the door and the door opened and I
heard Lance call my name.

"Tam" Lance called

"In the living room, Lance" I replied.

Lance walked in and came straight over and sat down next to me and kissed
me hard on the lips.

"I missed you, baby" Lance said.

"I missed you too" I replied

I heard some chuckling and looked up and saw JC and the rest of the group.
Lance stood up and introduced the rest of the gang..

"You know JC, this is Justin, this is Chris, and the one how cannot decide
on a hair color is Joey.  Lance said.

"Hello guys, JC it is good to see you again" I replied.

Lance and I sat down again and the guys all found places to sit.

"Well Peter, if you are here you have just presented the job offer to Tam"
JC asked.

"Yes JC, I did and his response was how do you guys feel about him coming
on tour with you and his relationship with Lance" Peter replied.

"Well, it is too soon to tell for all of us but JC and Lance since they
have gotten to know him" Chris replied

"But none of us mind him going on tour with us, it will give us a chance to
get to know him" Joey said.

"Well, I guess it is all settled, I'll take the job" I said.

Lance leaned over and kissed me quickly on the lips.  Peter interrupted us
from going further be asking me a question.

"Tam, are you curious about the salary and benefits" Peter asked?

"I think he likes the benefits" Justin said

Lance reached over and slapped him on the back of the head.

"Watch the hair Scoop" Justin whined.

"Now back to the topic on hand, all your travel, rooms and meals while on
tour will be paid for by the Firm.  You will have a corporate credit card
for meals and rental cars if necessary, and your salary will be $150,000
per tour."  Peter replied.

"Did you say $150,000" I asked.

"I know it not allot, but hopefully if 'No Strings Attached' does well,
maybe next tour it can be more." Peter replied.

"No, it's fine, It's more than I made at my last job." I replied.

"Well I think I am going to leave, there will be a messenger by in the
morning with the contracts and secrecy agreement for you to review and
sign.  Also, since we are a month into the tour, your first check will be
included along with a bonus to help you get ready for the tour.  We leave
in 4 days, see you guys later" Peter said.

Joey showed Peter out and then came back in and set down in his vacated
chair.

"So Tam, how are you feeling" JC asked.

"OK, I guess" I replied.

"You look tired, baby" Lance said

"I could use a nap" I replied.

"While I am napping there are movies and in the guest bedroom there is a
box with 2 playstations and some games and a TV, you guys make yourselves
at home.  Lance will you come with me please" I said.

"Sure, I be back guys" Lance replied.

"Take your time Scoop" Justin said and he a JC headed for the movie
cabinet.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
When we got to my room I closed the door and locked it.  Lance seemed
suprised when I did this.  When I looked at Lance he had a suprised look on
his face.

"What's wrong" I asked?

"You locked the door" He replied

"I know, we need some privacy" I replied.

"Lance, thank you for what you did for me today, I am really grateful.  I
was not sure how I was going to make it without you, when you left.  I hope
you were serious about what you told Peter about us.  I love you Lance" I
replied with tears running down my face.

Lance walked over and pulled me into a hug.

"I love you too Tam, and I was very serious about what I told Peter.  I was
dying inside about leaving you and there was this opportunity for you to go
with us and I took it.  I hope you are not mad at me for not telling you
about it first."  Lance replied

"No, Lance I'm not mad, a little concerned on how to get ready in 4 days,
that's all." I replied.

I started yawning and Lance laughed.

"You need some sleep Tam" Lance stated.

" I know, lay down with me please" I asked.

" OK I will" he replied.

We kicked our shoes off and turned the bed back and crawled in, I rolled
over and put my head on Lance's chest and with the sound of his heart and
his breathing drifted off to dream land.
