EVERYTHING I SAID
	- Chapter 3 -
Written by Darren LeVanelle

	I woke up in the morning still feeling pretty good.  I didn't
sleep as well as I did the other night but it was still a refreshing
sleep and not the usual toss around the bed kind.  These past two days
had definitely been different.  And I was enjoying the change.  Even if
I thought it would only be temporary at best.
	Got up out of bed and did my usual routine.  Took a shower, got
dressed, had a quick bite to eat and then headed up to my room since I
still had an hour till I had to be back at the venue to help with the
equipment being moved.  Sometimes I just LOVE these delayed concerts
that don't have us springing from one place to the next.
	I hoped online as quick as I could.  Didn't have much time to do
much but I figured I could at least check my e-mail since I hadn't done
it last night.  As soon as I had connected I was pleasantly surprised
as an IM window popped up within a minute of me logging on.

<JayBJay> Hey there!  I was wondering if you'd ever show up!

	Damn.  I hadn't even got to check my mail yet.  How excited I
felt at the moment.  Truth be told I was actually hoping to catch him
on here again.  Part of why I wanted to check my mail anyways.

	<JHollis78> Sorry.  I checked for a minute last night to see if
you were on but I doubted it and you weren't.
	<JHollis78> I didn't even get back from work till real late.
<JayBJay> It's cool.  I wasn't even on-line much yesterday.  Had too
much to take care of.  But I did get to e-mail some friends from back
home.
	<JHollis78> That sounds good.  That's pretty much what I have to
do since I'm out here on the road so much.
<JayBJay> That could be a real pain.
	<JHollis78> It is sometimes.
<JayBJay> Oh.
<JayBJay> Hey I was wondering...
<JayBJay> Nevermind.
	<JHollis78> It's ok.  You can pretty much ask me anything.  I'll
tell you if you go too far.
<JayBJay> You sure?

	What a time for the guy to have a really good sense of respect.
He was always so touching.  That made me like these conversations more
and more.

	<JHollis78> Of course I'm sure.  Now spill it!
<JayBJay> If I told you that I couldn't stop thinking about our
conversation the other day since we logged off, and I couldn't stop
thinking about you, would you think I was being some kind of weirdo
stalking freak?
<JayBJay> < hangs his head down in shame.

	I couldn't believe that while I was reading his message that my
eyes started to tear up.  Here was this guy, who had no clue what I
looked like and I had no clue what he looked like, spilling a very
private and intimate thought to me about me!  And by cyber terms we
weren't even on the second date.  Talk about impressive!

	<JHollis78> Please don't feel that way.
<JayBJay> Huh?
	<JHollis78> You have absolutely NO reason to hang your head in
shame.
<JayBJay> So I'm not some weirdo freak?
	<JHollis78> I don't think so.  The crazy stalker types wouldn't
even have the courtesy to ask before they ask.  Know what I mean?
<JayBJay> Yea.  I think so but I don't get it
<JayBJay> I thimk my handsa re trembling alittle now I'm not typings o
gooda nymore.
	<JHollis78> Jay...stop typing and just read for a moment.
	<JHollis78> You have been more honest, more up front, and more
romantic to me than any guy has EVER been that I've met face to face.
You intrigue me.  You made me hop online at some god awful hour just to
see if you were here.  That impresses me.  Don't feel all funny to say
what you're thinking right now.  It's ok.
	<JHollis78> Now I have to be honest and say that I don't know if
I can be a dedicated person on-line.  We just have to see where this
goes.  That alright by you?
<JayBJay> Of course.  What?  You thought I wanted to meet you and just
jump in the sack?
<JayBJay> Not that I'd know what to do in the sack.  Still a virgin.
	<JHollis78> I don't care.  Let's just take our time.
<JayBJay> Hello?  I want to get to know you better.  Why do you think I
was telling you that!
	<JHollis78> I'm flattered!

	And I really was but I saw the time and knew I had to get going.
As much as I hated to have to do it, my job was my only love right now.

	<JHollis78> Jay, sorry but I really need to go.
<JayBJay> It's alright.  I understand.  Work?
	<JHollis78> You guessed it.  Look for me on-line ok.
<JayBJay> Will do.  Prolly gonna surf some more.  Talk to ya later Hal.
	<JHollis78> C-ya Jay!

	Well everything at the venue went smoothly.  I had everything in
their cases within two hours, my best time ever.  Sometimes I just
amaze myself.  Then the long process of loading the bus.  We were
headed from Houston to someplace in Arizona or New Mexico.  I'm not
exactly sure.  Well, I wasn't exactly looking forward to the two day
road trip to the next venue.  When we get there it was gonna be early
in the morning, unpack, set up, run soundcheck, do a run through of the
set list, a quick little three hour nap time for myself, then back to
the stadium to do last minute tweaking, the concert, and then repeating
what I'm doing now and ANOTHER two day road trip.
	The EXCITEMENT of my job is just non-stop isn't it?

	Well it took forever to get the bus completely packed up.  Then
it was back to the hotel.  I was happy for that.  My last REAL shower,
in a REAL bathroom, in a REAL room for at least a week until we got to
San Diego.  Then two days of rest and then another concert.  Yay.  Well
it could have been worse.  I could be touring with Britney.
	On second thought, I don't even want to THINK about that.

	The shower was a welcome alcove from the pressure I would be
facing for the next two shows.  Not only were they quick set ups and
even quicker run0throughs, but I was still getting use to some of the
equipment myself.  Not a good thing when I didn't even have twenty
concerts under my belt.  With Sarah I always had time.  She was SO much
more patient than these JIVE promotional personnel.  They're just all
lucky I like my job.  Cause if I didn't they would see the bitch in me.
	I let the later run down my body.  GOD this felt so relaxing.  My
hands wandered about my semi-small frame as I soaped up and rinsed it
all down.  Now I'd like to point out that I have never been ashamed of
my body.  I never thought I looked too great but I wasn't ashamed of
it.  I had a nicely toned upper build, a little scrawny but you could
see definite definition in my pecs and abs.  My legs, however, were a
completely different story.  Since I was young I ran around all the
time.  Then when I took Tae Kwon Do while in high school, they got even
stronger.  Now, with all the standing and lifting and moving, my body
had FINALLY developed a nice form.  Since I didn't tan well I was very
white.  Ok I wasn't as white as Lance but pretty damn close.
	The one thing I sure as hell wasn't ashamed of was, pardon the
bluntness, my dick.  I just looked down and sighed.  It was a good
sized piece of meat I'd say.  Hell, my old roommate who could hardly
stand the sight of me without a shirt on, said that if it wasn't
attached to my body he would SO be on his knee's worshipping it.
	Then again he's so easy I don't think that's necessarily a good
thing either.
	It had been ages since I had sex.  And since the next week was to
be extremely devoid of any privacy, I decided I should just take care
of my business before hitting the road.  Funny thing was that I was
trying to imagine what this guy 'Jay' looked like.  C'mon guys.  You
know what I'm talking about!  If you've been online you just try to
imagine them, what they look like, what IT looks like.  Well it didn't
take long for my imagination to start conjuring images before I got
excited.  Damn.  Five minutes.  Well that didn't take very long.
	I got dressed trying to look all casual and found that I wasn't
too happy with my wardrobe at the moment.  I seriously needed a trip to
the mall.  Would have to do that in San Diego.  So I just threw
something on and started to do my hair.  Oh yeah.  I have really light
brown hair, pretty short except for the front which was fairly long
hanging in front of my eyes a little.  My eyes were almost green, kind
of in-between hazel and blue.  And I'm not very tall.  I'm about 5'09"
so each of the guys of 'N Sync basically towered over me.  Like I
really cared.
	I had all my suitcases and my laptop packed up and ready to go.
I got down to the lobby and was surprised that the bus I had been
riding in was taking off at the moment I opened the elevator doors.  I
looked own at my watch.  Damnit!  I was like 5 minutes late.
	See what yanking the pud can do to your time schedule.
	"What the problem Jere?" Joey asked me as he rounded the corner
from the front desk.
	"My bus just took off."  I was still fuming.  Just the way to
start this leg of the tour.
	"Well that's fine.  I'm sure the rest of the guys wouldn't mind
you bunking with us till we get to the next stop."
	"Are you sure about that?" I asked him.  After all I really
didn't know any of them still, although Joey was trying his damned best
to get to know me better.  He sort of motioned for me to wait and
approached the other four guys who were just kind of huddled up near
the front of the hotel.
	He kind of talked to them for little bit.  Justin made this weird
ass face and I almost started busting up laughing.  Chris reacted the
same way.  Then I noticed Lance starting to speak up to Justin and
Chris.  They didn't look too happy over what he said.  Then they all
turned to JC and he just said 'fine' or at least that's what it looked
like to me.
	Guess I'd gotten on the bus by a narrow 3 to 2 victory.  Whoope!
Whatever.
	Well we started to get the luggage loaded on and Lance just
started a little bit of small talk with me.
	"You doing ok Jeremy?" His southern accent was pretty damn
strong.  I guess all those teen magazines were right.
	"Yeah I'm doing fine." I responded in a kind of drawl myself.  I
wasn't feeling too much up to conversation but Lance did appear to
stick up for me getting on the bus.
	"Don't worry about Chris and Justin." He said almost like reading
my mind.  "They just don't like the idea of 'The Help' being on the
same bus as us."
	"Well all those interviews where they say that they're down to
earth must be pretty far-fetched." I said coldly too him.  Killed
another thought of mine too.  Then again Justin always did act like he
was on the rag.
	"Some of it's advertising.  But most of it is really us."  He
helped me close the side compartment and then we started to get on
board.  I took a seat near the front as the bus started to roll on out
of the hotel parking lot, trying not to intrude upon their little
'family' but there wasn't much I could do about.  Conforming to the
widely spread theory, Lance was a total southern gentleman.  "You are
not sitting up here.  Come on back to our little game room."  He gave
me a smile and led me, by the hand no less, to the back of the bus
where they all watched TV and tried to relax on these long journeys.
Lance had no sooner opened the door to the small room before he heard
Justin commentating.
	"Is Lance trying to flirt with that guy or what?"  He stopped
suddenly in his sentence as all four of them looked toward us, Lance
holding my hand still, and me with a very confused look on my face.
Justin threw his hands up in the air, did this cute little turn and
faced us before he continued.
	"Great!  You talk to him outside the bus for five minutes, come
waltzing in here and holding hands with your new boyfriend!  And to top
it all off he's our technician!"  My mouth dropped open as I looked
over at Lance who just let his head drop to the floor.
	"Um...guys." I muttered out almost inaudibly.  They all looked at
me.  "I don't know what you guys are talking about.  He just didn't
want me sitting alone up front."  Every single one of them, Joey
included, made the face.  Y'know the face of 'Oh my I did not just
spill something that he's not suppose to know'.  I looked over at
Lance, partly cause I was shocked.  Sure we all hear rumors but I was
suddenly faced with the truth.
	"You're gay?" I asked.
	I must have had a bad tone in my voice because lance ran through
to the other side of the 'Game Room' and disappeared through another
door, leaving me looking like I retard with the rest of the guys.
	"See what happens when you open you BIG mouth!" Joey finally
spoke up to Justin.
