Chapter 5
<<Mayhem On The Holidays>>

<<Nick and Aaron's Suite at the Sheraton>>

	"So baby, what do you wanna do?" Nick asked Brian as they laid
together on Nick's bed.
	"I just want to be with you babe!" Brian replied as he smiled at
Nick. Nick leaned in and kissed Brian gently on the lips.
	"I guess is just us until tonight when Kevin and Juan get back from
Queens!" Brian said.
	"But that's good you know?" Nick replied with a mischievous smile.
	"Oh really?" Brian said as he gave Nick back that very same
mischievous grin as he hopped on top of him.
	"Wanna take a bath?" Nick suggested as he winked his right eye at
Brian.
	"Whoa! Great idea baby!" Brian replied as he leaned in to kiss Nick
again.
	"I'll get everything ready babe, just wait for me here until I call
you ok?" Nick said as he got up and headed to the bathroom.

<<The Sumpters' Suite>>

	Aaron and Jeremy finally found themselves enjoying a great and fun
time together. So far, Jeremy was kicking Aaron's ass in MarioKart
Double-Dash which was totally unexpected to Aaron since he has always
considered himself the master of all video games. And as it had been
accorded between them, the one that loses in any of the races had to give
the winner a kiss and so far Jeremy had been getting all the prices; not
that Aaron minded anyway.
	"So are we gonna stay here playing this all day?" Aaron asked.
	"Ummm, I don't really know, I'm kinda enjoying kicking your ass at
this!" Jeremy replied with a giggle.
	"Oh so I see how things are!" Aaron said as he threw a super blue
shell in the game and it hit Jeremy who was on the first place making him
lose. Aaron was driving a purple car with Wario and Baby Bowser and Jeremy
was driving a red car medium size with Mario and Luigi. Aaron seemed to
like the bad guys now that he was mean when it came to playing video games,
very nasty when it came to screw ups with items in MarioKart.
	They kept on playing for an hour more and then Jeremy proposed to
go out and take a walk inside the hotel, he just wanted to get to know the
place. Aaron, gladly accepted. Jeremy went inside his room to get his
jacket and cell phone and then came out to see Aaron ready waiting for him
at the door.
	"I'm so glad I met you!" Aaron said as Jeremy just walked up to him
and kissed him on the lips.
	"Me too!" He replied and with that said they left the room.

<<>>

	Being this such a happy time, it has always been stated by those
unfortunate that happiness to some was not meant to last long. Unaware of
coincidences and fate, the way was leading back to the very same
conflictive start, like if it was a circle, whose line has no defined
ending. David was back on this way. He had been determined to get back in
Aaron's life and occupy again the place in his heart he had occupied
once. Though the way to get back in his life was tougher due to the
presence of Jeremy, for it he had been fooled and now was under the false
impression that they had been together for some time. David was not evil
and like any other person he had committed a mistake; willingly or
unwillingly it was still a mistake and those that seek forgiveness and
redeem themselves from their wrongdoing are always welcomed to do so. The
bad influence in this case was Scott, he sure was evil and certainly no
good for David. And as we all know a rotten apple can rot a good one if too
close. The urban tale begins on a Christmas day... who would have thought
it would turn out to be such a troubled holiday season.

<<>>

	After having spotted the Sumpters in the restaurant, David and
Scott stayed on their table killing time. David got up and headed towards
the hostess whom he gently saluted. She was a 20 year-old girl who knew
exactly who David was and she was doing her best not to freak out and yell
out of excitement.
	"How can I help you Mr. Gallagher?" She asked.
	"Yeah thank you ummm....!" David paused to take a look at the
hostess name tag and then continued, "Danielle, I'm not sure but I think
you said Sumpter so I was wondering if you can tell me who were you
referring to?"
	"Oh yeah, the family that just got settled across your table, they
are the Sumpters but may I ask why the inquiry... Sir?" She asked back.
	Stupidly, and to kill time as well, David gave the hostess a very
so made-up story about the issue; not that it was any of her business but
still, David was repaying her kindness by flirting with her a little. Now
he was definitely sure that they were indeed Jeremy's family. Jessica was
the confirmation of his doubt now that he remembered seeing her passing by
with Jeremy and her parents at the premiere.
	Scott was still impatiently waiting at the table. After 15 minutes,
David came back and in a very funny way decided to dismiss Scott.
	"Now you can go!" David said as he sat down.
	"What?" Scott asked.
	"You can go, I'll take it from here!" David said.
	"You gotta be fucking kidding me!" Scott replied obviously annoyed.
	"No I'm not!" David said nonchalantly.
	"FUCK YOU, ASSHOLE!" Scott said very disturbed as he got up and
left.
	David didn't even mind Scott's attitude and just waited for the
Sumpters to finish and then leave so that he could follow them. He needed
to find out where they were staying at which hopefully might lead him to
Aaron.

<<Back to The Sheraton, in Nick and Aaron's Suite>>

	"Alright gorgeous, all is set!" Nick said as he came out of the
bathroom just wearing a bathrobe. Brian smiled at the sight of Nick and
then walked up to him but just before he kissed him, there was a knock on
the door.
	"ROOM SERVICE" a young man exclaimed from the other side of the
door.
	"Did you order something?" Brian asked with a puzzled face.
	"Yup!" Nick said as he opened the door and pushed Brian behind it
so that the young guy didn't see the both of them. The guy pushed the cart
inside the Suite and then left. Nick closed the door and then went back to
Brian. He slowly started undressing him as he placed soft kisses on Brian's
lips. On the cart there was some champagne and a bowl of green grapes. Nick
sure wanted to make of it a very romantic moment.
	By now Nick had completely stripped Brian down to his boxer briefs
and stood there staring at him for a while. It was obvious that Brian had
gained some weight ever since the Backstreet boys had been out of business
but he was still gorgeous and charming as always.  Nick then proceeded to
take of Brian's underwear revealing his semi-erect manhood. He opened his
bathrobe to expose himself to Brian too and then came close to him, wrapped
his arms around Brian and started making out with him. Slowly they made
their way to the bathroom. The door was closed; or so they thought.

	Meanwhile downstairs, Kevin and Juan were walking in with a bunch
of presents stuffed in bags. They had just come back from bringing all the
Christmas presents for everyone from Juan's mother's house in Long
Island. And since they wanted to have a nice Christmas dinner with their
new friends they decided to leave little Esteban with his grandma. They
took the elevator, got off at the tenth floor and headed towards their
Suite. Kevin however stopped himself on his tracks in deep thought.
	"What's wrong baby?" Juan asked letting his very sexy Spanish
accent be noticed.
	"Oh I was just thinking that it would be better to leave certain
presents in Nick and Aaron's Suite!" Kevin replied.
	"And why is that?"
	"Well, I have Brian's present here and is something very special so
I don't want to ruin the surprise just in case Brian comes to our
Suite. Besides, they aren't even wrapped yet!" Kevin stated. "And by the
way, Nick gave me a spare key-card to their room just in case of anything!"
Kevin finished.
	"Ok sure, then lets go!" Juan said and then they headed towards
Nick and Aaron's Suite instead. Kevin swept the card and the door was
unlocked. Juan opened it and they walked in.
	"Dios mio!" Juan said as he walked in and noticed the mess
everywhere in the room. Especially the trail of clothes leading to the
bathroom.
	"So where do we leave them?" He asked.
	"Lets leave them in the bathroom, I don't want neither Nick nor
Aaron to see them!" Kevin said but then he saw the box of the new laptop
that Nick gave Aaron and the keys of the car. Juan just took the presents
and walked to the bathroom, which's door was slightly opened and some soft
music was playing in the background but was coming from inside. Juan
approached as quietly as possible and then gasped at the sight.
	"Oh yeah Brian!" Nick moaned as Brian made love to him in the
bathtub. Juan stood there petrified at the sight and couldn't help but
stare at the two blondes making love. Kevin came after him and saw him in
quite the shock.
	"What's wrong?" Kevin asked bluntly and Juan motioned for him to
lower his voice. Then he pointed with his finger in direction to Brian and
Nick in the bathtub. Kevin's jaw dropped to the floor at the sight of his
cousin and one of his best friends going at it.
	"So that is why he was getting into divorce!" Kevin whispered still
shocked.


	Aaron and Jeremy come out of the Suite and head to the
elevator. Since there's noone around they just hold hands careless of any
security cameras. They were just to happy with each other at the moment to
care about anyone else although being so young might not let them realize
the seriousness of their reality. They get inside the elevator and Aaron
presses the button for the last floor.
	"Where are we going?" Jeremy asked.
	"I wanna show you something!" Aaron replied and then brought Jeremy
closer so that he could wrap his arms around him and kisses him softly on
the side of his neck. Jeremy giggles and then they just wait until the
elevator reached its destination. A floor before they arrived, Aaron led go
of Jeremy and then the door opened. They walked out and headed towards a
large lounge nearby. There was a large window that overlooked two
outstanding sights of Manhattan: Times Square, and in the opposite side,
the Central park. Those were magnificent views, Jeremy walked towards the
glass and stood there admiring the view totally amazed.
	"How did you know about this place?" Jeremy asked.
	"It's a secret!" Aaron replied with a smile. Jeremy gave up on the
inquiry and kept on staring.
	"Jeremy, I brought you here because we need to talk about
something!" Aaron said as he walked to were Jeremy was standing.
	"What is that?"
	"Well, you and I just met, and of course we do like each other and
A LOT!" Aaron said, "But this New York trip is not going to last forever
and we need to be real about the changes that are coming up!" He finished.
	"You know... I had thought of it pretty much the little time that
I've spent with you today and... I'm not sure what am I going to do when
the time to say good-bye to you comes!" Jeremy said as that smile that he
had on his face faded completely.
	"It's like my wish had come true but not completely!" Jeremy said,
"Ever since I know you, I've always wished to a least meet you personally,
and I thought I would be completely happy... just with that,
although... now that I know you and that we've gotten this far, I have to
let go and it scares me that it's not going to be easy to let go, just like
that!" Jeremy finished.
	Since there was nobody in the lounge, Aaron just wrapped his arms
around him and whispered in his ear, "We'll come up with a plan!" and then
kissed him on the cheek. Jeremy just held to Aaron as if is life depended
solely on it.
	"I am not willing to let go of you now that I think I've found the
right person for me and that is going to make me happy for as long as he
can and is willing to do so!" Aaron said, "But in the time being, while we
think of a plan, I suggest that we enjoy this time together as much as I we
can!"
	"Until when are you staying here in New York?" Jeremy asked.
	"I don't really know, my brother was the one who made all the
arrangements so I guess I'm gonna have to ask him!" Aaron replied, "How
about you?"
	"Me and my Dad are staying `til February 29th because he has some
business he needs to deal with here in New York. And my Mom and Sisters are
going back to LA the second of January!"
	"Then I guess I can persuade my brother to let me stay since we are
both not doing much lately!" Aaron said.
	"Lets hope for the best then!" Jeremy said as he looked into
Aaron's eyes and then leaned in for a kiss.

<<Meanwhile, Across The Sheraton on 7th Avenue>>

	A yellow cab stops across the hotel and the Sumpters come out of
it. The cab leaves and a few seconds later another cab stops and David gets
out of it. The family were waiting for the light to change so that they
could cross the avenue and David stood behind them keeping certain
distance. `So here is where they're staying huh?' David thought to
himself. The light changes and the sign of WALK appears. David, distracted
by his thinking didn't notice that a little girl had stopped in front of
him and was looking at him with curiosity. It was Jennifer, the rest of the
Sumpters crossed the avenue but didn't notice that Jenni had stayed. David
bumped into her and then apologized, he stopped and turned around so that
she didn't recognize him. Since the signs of `walk' and `don't walk' change
rapidly in the city, Jenni wasn't aware of it.
	The Sumpters were walking towards the hotel's entrance when Jessica
noticed the Jennifer wasn't with them.
	"Mom, Dad, where's Jennifer?" Jessica asked her parents and soon
they stopped in their tracks and looked back. Mrs. Sumpter saw her crossing
the avenue by herself and the sign of `Don't Walk' had just stopped
blinking and the light had just changed to green.
	"JENNI!!!" Mrs. Sumpter yelled in panic watching her little
daughter crossing the avenue. Mr. Sumpter started running towards her but
he was way far from getting to where Jenni was. Another yellow cab had
resumed its way a little earlier than the other cars and the driver wasn't
aware of the little girl crossing the avenue because he was on his cell
phone talking.
	David heard the yell and saw the girl in the middle of the avenue
also unaware of the cab that was in about to hit her. `Uh oh! This can't be
good!' David thought `UGH!!! Why me? Why do these things have to happen to
me huh???' He thought to himself as he kicked off running to get Jenni out
of the way. Just when the cab driver saw her and hit the brakes, David came
running and grabbed Jenni before the cab hit her. He jumped to the other
side of the avenue with Jenni in his arms and hit the ground with his right
side of his body hurting his right shoulder and arm. David winced in pain
but he made sure that Jenni was alright. She was holding tight to David and
had her eyes shut tight with an expression of panic on her face. David
smiled to see that she was alright and a seconds later Mr. Sumpter gets
there to help them up.
	"JENNI, are you alright?" Her father asked frantically. Jenni
opened her eyes and then jumped to her father's arms and started crying.
	"Oh thank God, you're alright!" He said as Mrs. Sumpter and Jessica
got there. Jenni then hugged her mother and Jessica joined the hug as well.
	"Thank you so much young man!" Mr. Sumpter said as he stretched his
hand to help David get up. David winced in pain again as he was getting up
and then Mr. Sumpter noticed that his arm was bleeding. "Oh my God, are you
alright?" He asked. David just put his hand over the wound "Don't worry
Sir, I'll be alright!" He replied.
	"Do you want me to get you to a hospital?" Mr. Sumpter asked
concerned.
	"Nah it's alright Sir, I'll be fine, I just need to clean up and
that's it!" David said.
	"OK, then a least let my wife take care of that wound, she was a
nurse a few years ago. Come with us to our Suite and you can get that
cleaned up!" Mr. Sumpter insisted.
	"Oh Sir, I don't want to bother!" David said.
	"After what you just did for our daughter, I can't thank you enough
so now please, let us help!" Mr. Sumpter replied.
	"OK, thank you sir!" David said and then they went inside the
hotel.
	"I'm Gary Sumpter by the way, this is my wife Sandy and my
daughters Jessica and Jennifer!" Mr. Sumpter introduced himself and his
family.
	"Oh I'm David Gallagher!" David replied.
	"Jesus Christ!" Jessica mumbled as she recognized him and thought
of everything that her brother had told her earlier in the morning.
	"Pleased to meet you!" Mrs. Sumpter said "And thank you so much for
saving my daughter!"
	"No problem Mrs. Sumpter, I'm glad I did what I did!" He
replied. They went inside the elevator and headed to the tenth floor.
	"Is Jeremy in our Suite?" Mr. Sumpter asked.
	"I guess so, he said he was going to be with Aaron the whole
afternoon!" She replied, "And if they're not there then, they must be in
Aaron's Suite!"
	"Alright, if he is not in our Suite then call him and tell him to
be there at once!" Mr. Sumpter said.
	"Alright honey!" Mrs. Sumpter replied.
	David overheard the conversation and his mind started racing to
explain the reason of his presence there. He always had the defense of a
fortunate coincidence but still, he didn't want to blow anything up.
	They reached the tenth floor and as soon as they came out of the
elevator the doors closed again and the it went up to the last
floor. Jessica was needed to let her brother know about this right away but
she didn't know how. She opened the door to their Suite to see if he was
there but he wasn't and then ran to phone.
	"Jess, honey, who are you gonna call?" Her mom asked her.
	"I'm calling Jeremy, he's not here as you can see!" She replied.
	"OK just tell him to come here right away!" Mrs. Sumpter said.
	Jessica quickly dialed Jeremy's number and waited for an
answer. She was desperate to contact her brother and inform him but then,
Mr. Sumpter brought David inside the room and now Jessica wasn't able to
say much in their presence. After three rings, Jeremy answered.
	"Hello!" Jeremy's voice could be heard.
	"Hey it's Jess, Mom and Dad want you in the Suite now!" Jessica
said.
	"Why what's going on?" Jeremy asked.
	"Just come and we will explain it all here OK?" Jessica replied and
then thought of something. She turned around and walked away from David and
her father and whispered into the phone "And don't bring Aaron because we
got him a very disgusting present!" She finished.
	"Huh what are you talking about Jess, what do mean?" Jeremy asked
really confused.
	"Just come, and without him!" Jessica said and then hung up.
	"He's coming Mom!" Jessica yelled from the room.

<<In The Last Floor Of The Sheraton>>

	"What was that all about?" Jeremy asked as he just stared at his
cell phone.
	"It's everything alright?" Aaron asked.
	"I don't know but I better go and find out, my parents want me back
at the Suite now!" Jeremy said as he walked towards the elevators.
	"Wait! I'll come with you!" Aaron said as he followed.
	"Ummm you know what? I think this is gonna be some kind of family
argument and I don't want you to get involved with it so why don't you just
go back to your Suite and I'll meet you there in few huh?" Jeremy said
thinking of what his sister had told him.
	"Oh... OK... I'll wait for you then!" Aaron agreed and then the
elevator's doors opened they got in and headed down to the tenth
floor. Before they came out of the elevator, Aaron kissed Jeremy one last
time and then they came out. Aaron went to his Suite, which door was
opened, and Jeremy went to his.

<<Back At The Sumpters Suite>>

	"Does it hurt?" Mrs Sumpter asked David as she cleaned the wound on
his arm.
	"A little but nothing that I can't take!" He replied.
	"I guess you're gonna have to get your shoulder checked, just in
case, and don't worry, we will paid for everything!" Mr. Sumpter said, "Is
the least we can do to thank you for saving our daughter's life!"
	"Nah that's alright, this action does not require a pay back!"
David said, "I just did it because it was the right thing to do and I'm
glad to help!" He finished.
	"Jess honey are you ok?" Mrs. Sumpter asked, "You haven't said a
word ever since we got here!"
	"Nothing Mom, I'm fine, just waiting for Jeremy to get here!" She
replied.
	"You sure you're alright?" Mrs. Sumpter asked again.
	"Yeah Mom!" Jessica said.
	"OK, I think that will be it!" Mrs. Sumpter said as she got up from
the chair, "Just let me go and get the bandages in the first aid kit. Both
Mr. and Mrs. Sumpter left the room just leaving David and Jessica. Jennifer
was watching TV in the little living room and she seemed more calmed.
	"So Jessica, what's up!" David asked trying to make conversation.
	"What do you care?" Jessica snapped back at him, "What do you
want?"
	"What do you mean kid?" David asked not very sure to what Jessica
was trying to get at.
	"I know everything David Gallagher, everything that happened last
night at the premier. My brother told me all about it. And I don't know why
I get the feeling that you didn't happen to be there just by pure
coincidence just to save my sister!" Jessica said.
	"You smart little brat!" David said as he smiled... That smile
could either be interpreted as evil or just good. Jessica wasn't sure but
then, Mrs. Sumpter came back with the bandages.
	"Here I have them, you'll be all set in no time!" She said as she
started to put them on David's arm. When she was done doing so, Jeremy
opens the door and comes in. He says hi to his little sister Jenni who
seems not to pay attention to him and then he says hi to his dad who is
sitting right next to her. He then heads to the room where Jessica and
Mrs. Sumpter are. When he gets to the door way he just gasps as soon as he
sees the guy who is sitting on the bed.
	"Wha... wha... what are you doing here?" Jeremy led out quite
loudly to get the attention of all the people in the Suite. David just
turned around to see Jeremy in shock. He wasn't so sure if he was enjoying
the moment but it certainly was pleasant to see Jeremy's face, he just felt
like mortifying the kid for a little while.
	"Oh you guys know each other?" Mrs. Sumpter asked.
	"Yeah we do!" Both Jeremy and David answered at the same time and
then stared at each other again.
	"We met yesterday at the premiere!" Jeremy explained.
	"Oh really? You were invited to the premiere too? Then why didn't I
see you there?" Mrs. Sumpter asked.
	"I had to leave early because I got into an argument with a friend
of mine. I wish I could have stayed but my presence there wasn't
appreciated by some people!" David said with a hint of sarcasm in his voice
although Mrs. Sumpter didn't take it that way.
	"Oh I'm so sorry you missed the movie, it was really good!" She
said.
	"Yeah, so I heard. I guess you must be really proud of your son
here!" David said.
	"Oh sure, we all are!" She replied as she hugged Jeremy and gave
him a kiss on the cheek.

	A little later Jeremy learned the reason why David ended up in his
room. His father had told him everything that had happened but he still
felt uneasy about the situation. Jeremy also had the same doubts the
Jessica had but he couldn't be so sure of that. And in the other hand, he
had to be glad because if it wasn't for him, his sister would probably be
dead. All this thoughts were racing through his head and he didn't know how
to act. He was avoiding at all cost to have any conversation with David but
as much as he tried he couldn't stop it from happening.
	Mr. Sumpter, who felt totally in debt with David for what he did,
he asked him if he had any plans for Christmas later on. David said that he
was by himself in New York but that he was staying at a friend's place in
the city, he also said that he didn't have anything planned. To Jeremy's
horror, his father asked him to join them at the Christmas dinner that they
were going to have with their new friends. Now this was going to turn out
to be a very awkward and uncomfortable evening for him and Aaron. This was
the last thing Aaron needed, and Jeremy didn't want to cause more trouble
in Aaron's life, not to mention that he didn't want to ruin the night for
the both of them. He was really scared and he didn't know what to say or do
other than just keep up with the act that he is Aaron's boyfriend, although
right now, that concept wasn't too far off from reality. David accepted
Mr. Sumpter's invitation without hesitation. Things couldn't have come out
so great for him after everything that happened the past few hours.
	Jeremy excused himself and went inside the room. David followed him
while the rest of the Sumpters started to get ready for the
evening. Jessica was also feeling bad for her brother now that she knew
under how much pressure Jeremy was and how uncomfortable the situation was
getting.
	`Shit, I need to tell Aaron what's going on, but how?' Jeremy
pondered as he paced from one place to another in the room. David comes in
and closes the door.
	"What are you doing here? Get out!" Jeremy demanded.
	"You're not calling him!" David said, "I'll make sure of
that. We'll surprise him together... how do you like the idea!"
	"And what are you gonna do to stop me?" Jeremy asked, his rage
rising fast inside him.
	"I can tell that you are not out to your parents yet. Only your
sister knows about it. Maybe, they would be really interested to know why I
left the premiere last night!" David said, "So why don't you give me your
cell phone and I keep the phone while you get ready for the dinner!" He
threatened Jeremy seriously trying to fill him with fear to the core.

<<In Nick's And Aaron's Suite>>

	"So now what Kev?" Juan asked as they were still there right by the
bathroom's door.
	"I don't know... I guess we better wait for them until they're
done!" Kevin replied and then they hear someone opening the door. It was
Aaron.
	"Hey Nick, I'm back, you....!" He was saying out loud when he
spotted Kevin and Juan staring back at him in horror.
	"What are you guys doing here?" Aaron asked.
	"It was definitely a bad idea for us to come and leave the presents
here babe!" Juan said and then he felt that a door hit him in the back hard
and pushed him against the wall. Nick had just opened the bathroom door and
he was wearing just a bathrobe. Kevin just stayed there petrified not
knowing what to say or do. Nick just stares at Aaron and then Brian comes
from behind him also wearing a bathrobe and says: "What's wrong baby?" and
then he notices the little group of people in the room and right away turns
into several shades of red. And if both Nick and Brian thought that it was
the top of the most horrible embarrassment... Then they were wrong.
	"Hey guys!" Angel said as she was coming in followed by BJ.
	"Oh No!" Nick managed to say when both of his sister just came in
and stated saying hi to the rest in the room except Juan who was squeezed
behind the bathroom's door against the wall. But since both girls noticed
the tension and awkward silence in the room...
	"Can anyone tell me what's going on?" Angel asked.
	"Why are Brian and Nick all wet?" BJ asked.
	"No, wait, what are you two doing here?" Aaron asked Kevin and Juan
again.
	"Hey can you let go of the door Nick? You're suffocating him!"
Kevin said and then Nick realized that there was actually some one behind
the door. He led go of it and then Juan walked to were Kevin was standing
rubbing his nose.
	"Should I say OUCH! or what?" Juan exclaimed making Aaron laugh.
	"OK can anyone care to explain all this?" BJ asked once again.
	Nick and Brian just stared at each other and then Brian
nods... Well, according to the moment there was no other way out so it had
to be done, sooner or later.
	"Ummm to begin with... Ummmm... it's kinda hard to say this so I'm
just gonna say it...!" Nick stammered out, "Angie, BJ, I'm gay and Brian
and I have been seeing each other for quite some time now!" Nick finally
got out. Aaron just stared at him in shock as he took his chances and came
out to his sisters and friends. Kevin and Juan just blushed as they
remembered what they had seen a few minutes earlier and then the room went
quiet until BJ spoke.
	"Wow!" BJ said.
	"Oh No, Damn it, Nick!" Angel said. Nick's heart sunk when he heard
Angel say that. But then he went totally shocked.
	"Pay up little sister, eighty bucks!" BJ said as she turned to her
with a satisfying smile on her face.
	"Damn it... OK, OK, I owe eighty bucks!" Angel replied and then the
both of them burst in laughter to see everybody else's faces.
	"What's this all about?" Aaron asked totally puzzled.
	"I'll explain!" Angel said, "But before that, Nicky, I still love
you the same, I don't care if you're gay or straight, you're my brother and
I love regardless of your preferences, and if it makes you happy then hey,
I'm all for it!" Angel said as she approached her older brother and gave
him a hug.
	"Same here bro, I love just the same and I'm sure that Leslie
thinks the same way!" BJ said as she joined the hug.
	"Wait Leslie knows? How come?" Nick asked surprised.
	"Well we all kinda suspected it!" BJ said.
	"Oh I see!" Nick said a little embarrassed knowing that his sisters
had figured it out from before.
	"Anyways, the thing is that BJ and I made a bet, BJ was telling me
that she was a hundred percent sure that you were gay and I said `no, Nick
is not gay, the gay one is Aaron'!" Angel said and then Nick started
laughing hysterically. So did Brian, BJ and Angel. Kevin and Juan turned to
look at Aaron who wore a face of total disbelief. Then Angel continued.
	"So whoever lost had to pay the other eighty bucks!" Angel
finished.
	"Well then I guess that the both of you were right!" Aaron
said. "Since is confession time I guess is fair for all of you to know
too...!" He took a deep breath and just led it go, "I'm gay too!" He
finished.
	"HOLLY SHIT!" Angel said, "SEE I WAS RIGHT, I KNEW IT!" Angel said
out of excitement.
	"Wow this is big, our two only brothers are both gay... Geez, that
means that the future of the family is up to us girls!" BJ said.
	"But you know that we don't care about that, we love you just the
same, A. Come here you!" Angel said as she went to hug her twin brother. BJ
did the same too.
	"OK... since everything seems to be clear now can we go to get
ready for this evening?" Kevin said with a small voice.
	"Ummm... what were you guys doing here anyway?" Nick asked.
	"Oh... Well... Ummm... we wanted just too...!" Kevin was struggling
to explain but he was a little embarrassed by the situation.
	"We just wanted to leave some presents here in this room, that's
all!" Juan continued for Kevin, "But then we were gonna leave them in the
bathroom and we kinda caught the act so, we're most embarrassed about it,
we didn't mean to intrude. We thought there was nobody in!" He
finished. Nick and Brian blushed tremendously.
	"Holly shit, you guys caught them when they were going at it?"
Aaron said, "How funny was that?"
	"I think is better to go back to our Suite and get ready!" Kevin
blurted out, "And we talk later about something Brian OK?... I'm also glad
you guys are together!"
	"Yeah, they make such a cute couple don't they Bobbie?" Angel said.
	"Yeah they do!" BJ replied, "Anyway, we better get going to, we
also need to get ready!"
	"Thank you guys!" Brian said as he hugged Nick from the back.
	"Oh did you talk to Jeremy today, A?" Angel asked and then Aaron
just nodded. He blushed a little and somehow everyone could notice he had a
dreamy face.
	"OK we'll talk about that later!" Kevin said rushing everyone out,
even Aaron.
	"HEY! HEY! HEY!" Aaron exclaimed, "This is my Suite too you know?"
	"Oh sure, I'll see you later then!" Kevin said and then they all
left.
	"OK, I think you guys need a moment here!"Aaron said, "I'll just
wait `til you guys get dressed!" Both Brian and Nick blushed again and the
went inside the bathroom. Aaron just threw himself on the bed. He just took
a deep breath and then closed his eyes. Coming out to his sisters and to
some of his friends wasn't that bad after all. At least now he could be
himself around them and not live a lie. Of course he knew that the toughest
part was yet to come, which was coming out to his parents. He didn't know
how Nick was planning on doing so but that was Nick, he needed to do it
himself, alone, he wasn't going to wait for Nick to do so first now that he
felt he used Nick as a preemptive strike. Not anymore, he was thankful for
having such wonderful big brother and sisters, as of course parents. Then
his thoughts focused on the new object of his affection, a new person that
came to his life to bring him happiness. He was really thankful for Jeremy,
on the little time that they had known each other, he could really tell
that there was something very special about the boy, and that special thing
was giving him the strength to hold on to it. Aaron was decided to think of
something so that he wouldn't have to be apart from him. He didn't believe
in love at first sight, and at a certain point, he still didn't, although
the past events had been trying to prove him wrong. He had come across too
much to find this tranquility that now was filling him inside. David was
out of the map (so he thought), he didn't have feelings for him
anymore. But unknown to Aaron, Jeremy was going through a very stressing
situation at the moment.
	The evening arrived. Everybody had just finished getting ready for
the Christmas dinner that Kevin had been preparing. It was going to take
place in a private lounge room for meetings and parties at the hotel; it
wasn't too big since it was a dinner for a small group of people. The room
was circular, with four balconies overlooking the city. Right next to the
north terrace, there was a big beautifully decorated Christmas Tree
surrounded by a large quantity of presents of all sizes. In the middle of
the room there was a rectangular table set for 16 people and to the spaces
in between the balconies, there were tables with a great variety of
foods. And to the right side of the rooms, there was a small corridor that
leads to a comfortable fire place, with three long couches. The little
place was also beautifully decorated. And now that everything was set,
Kevin proceeded to start calling the people.

<<The Sumpters' Suite>>

	"Everyone ready?" Mr. Sumpter asked as he waited by the
door. Mrs. Sumpter was ready the same as Jessica and Jennifer. The only
ones that didn't seem to come out of the room where Jeremy and David. They
were all waiting for them by the door and they could clearly hear an
argument going on between them.
	"Give me my cell phone!" Jeremy fiercely demanded.
	"No, you're not going to mess things up!" David replied as he
opened the door and came out of the room.
	"What's going on you two?" Mr. Sumpter asked.
	"Oh nothing Sir, is just that Aaron Carter is a very good friend of
mine and I want to surprise him, now that he doesn't know I'm here, but
Jeremy here is dying to give him the news first!" David lied handing Jeremy
his cell phone back.
	"Oh Jeremy, that's not nice!" Mrs. Sumpter said.
	"Yeah son, he wants to surprise his friend, don't ruin it for him?"
Mr. Sumpter said.
	"But DAD!!!" Jeremy tried to argue but was cut off by his father,
"Nothing Jeremy, hand in your cell phone now!"
	"But I a least have to tell him that someone else is coming
too. Don't you think it would be rude if we show up with someone that
hasn't been invited?" Jeremy managed to say.
	"No, you're being rude trying to dismiss a person like that!"
Mr. Sumpter snapped back, "He says he is a very good friend of Aaron
Carter, with that there wouldn't be so much of a problem!"
	"Yeah but...!" Jeremy was cut off again, "But nothing young man,
you should be ashamed of your attitude, you should be grateful too for what
he did for your sister this afternoon!"
	"And I am, believe me...!"
	"Dad, I think Jeremy is right, at least you should call and tell
them about somebody else coming with us!" Jessica interjected.
	"OK, if it makes the lot of you happy, I'm calling Mr. Richardson
to let him know that we're bringing some one else to the dinner party,
although I'm not going to say who not to ruin the surprise he has for his
friend!" Mr. Sumpter stated as he grabbed the phone and dialed Kevin's cell
phone number. He waited a few seconds for someone to pick up
	"Hello!" Kevin answered.
	"Mr. Richardson, it's Gary Sumpter speaking!"
	"Mr. Sumpter, I was in about to call you, everything is ready so
you can all come now!"
	"Sure, we're on our way out, although I was calling to ask you if
it was too much trouble if we brought someone else along?"
	"Not at all Mr. Sumpter, there's plenty of everything for
everyone!"
	"Thank you very much, we'll be there in five minutes!"
	"We'll be waiting!"
	And they ended the call. David just smiled and thanked Mr. Sumpter
for what he did. Jeremy was frowning and he felt like punching David right
there. `Mother fucking hypocrite!' Jeremy thought bitterly.
	"You see Jeremy, they have no problem whatsoever with it!"
Mr. Sumpter said, "Now lets go, they're waiting for us!" Then they all
headed outside the Suite and Jeremy coming out last. He closed the door and
started walking towards the elevator. David just turned around with an evil
smile on his face and enjoying every second of Jeremy's
desperation. Jessica waited for her brother to catch up.
	"Are you OK?" She asked.
	"No, how can I be OK? I'm gonna ruin this Christmas for him!"
Jeremy said awfully frustrated.
	"Oh Jimmy, is not your fault, all this was just unexpected!"
Jessica tried to calm his brother a little.
	"No, it is not a fucking coincidence, he had all this planned ever
since last night!" Jeremy replied.
	"Well if it's that way then we can't do anything to prove it
otherwise. Lets just hope that Aaron will understand, I mean he knows that
you wouldn't do such thing purposely and knowing that guy, he can expect
the worts from him too!" Jessica said.
	"Yeah, just be that as it may!" Jeremy sighed and then went inside
the elevator with the rest.

	Aaron had managed to get something for Jeremy at a local jewelry
store, he had bought him a beautiful gold chain with a crucifix that at the
back had the letters A&J inscribed in miniature so it was hardly
noticeable. He was very excited to be sharing this Christmas with him now
that he felt very special about the boy.
	The rest of the guys where just sitting by the fire place chatting,
Aaron was by one of the balconies waiting for them to arrive. After a few
minutes of waiting, the Sumpters entered the room. First Mr. And
Mrs. Sumpter followed by Jessica and Jennifer and before Jeremy was in
about to head in David grabbed him by the arm and held him back.
	"Listen kid, you are to do as I say or your secret is to be
revealed here and right now do you understand?" David said.
	"Have you asked yourself if I ultimately care?" Jeremy replied, "I
love Aaron and I wouldn't care if anything happens as long as I'm beside
him. And if I know him, he would just kick your ass out of there right away
so save yourself an embarrassment!"
	"And what makes you think he loves you? He's just with you on the
rebound but as soon as he realizes that you'll be history!" David stated,
"Now get in there and introduce me as your friend!"
	Meanwhile they all said hello and Aaron noticed that Jeremy hadn't
come in with them so he asked "Where's Jeremy?"
	"Oh he's right.... where's he?" Mr. Sumpter asked too when he saw
both him and David beside the entrance.
	"Is he arguing with him again?" He asked his wife.
	"I don't know honey...!" She replied, "Are you guys coming in?" She
asked.
	"So Mr. Sumpter, where's the person that you were bringing with you
tonight?" Kevin asked.
	"He's... over there, give me a minute...!" Mr. Sumpter excused
himself and walked towards the door. But then, Jeremy entered first
followed by David.
	They all turned out to see the guy standing right behind Jeremy,
Nick dropped his drink and Aaron just stared at him in disbelief.
	"This is my guest, David Gallagher!" Mr. Sumpter said.
	"What is he doing here?" Aaron asked, his face turning red out of
anger.
	"Your friend here wanted it to be a surprise, Aaron!" Mr. Sumpter
replied with a warm smile.
	"My friend huh?" He said as he turned to see Jeremy who was staring
at him with a look of frustration in his eyes. Jessica walked beside Aaron
and took him by the arm and whispered so that no one could hear: "Jeremy
and I will explain later, just please keep up with the act just as Jeremy
did at the premiere yesterday OK?"
	"How do you...?" Aaron managed to ask but then Jessica continued.
	"I know everything, just pretend that David is your friend because
if you don't we'll be in huge trouble!" She continued, "I know it must be
tough but please, it's the only way not to make an scandal and mess
everything up!"
	"OK... I will!" Aaron replied as he changed his face and faked one
of happiness. He turned to see David and said out loud, "Yeah thanks Jess,
but let me go an say hi to my old friend!"
	Then he walked up to David and gave him a hug... Nick just stared
at his brother with the 'What-da-fuck?' look Jeremy just stared at Aaron
hugging David and just looked away and then Jessica was at his side right
away.
	"HEY man, long time no see huh?" Aaron said as he hugged David.
	"Yeah dude, look at you, you haven't changed a bit!" David replied
as he smiled in Jeremy's direction. The Aaron whispered to his ear: "We'll
talk later about this you bastard!" and then David spoke out loud: "I
missed you too buddy!"
	"Just be thankful that I can't hit you in the face in front of them
you mother fucker, `cause what it is right now, I'm hating you with all my
might!" Aaron whispered.
	"You don't hate me babe, you love me!" David whispered in reply
making Aaron angrier.
	"We'll see about that asshole!" Aaron whispered back as they both
pulled apart from the fake hug.
	"Merry Christmas everybody and thanks for inviting me to this
lovely dinner party!" David said as he started saying hi to the rest of the
people. When it came to say hi to Nick he pretended to be really
threatening.
	"What's up Nick!" David said stretching his hand for Nick to shake
it. Nick took it and squeezed it really hard. "What da fuck do you want
here David? Wasn't I clear enough that I didn't want you anywhere near my
brother?" Nick whispered to him.
	"Oh... this is nothing Carter, the best is yet to start!" David
replied dissimulating the pain that Nick's hand shake was giving him.
	"You can expect a lot more this evening!" David finished with a
very wicked smile and confident that his plan was going to work out just
perfectly fine.
