Previously:-
                             ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Lance  had walked backwards and forwards constantly for 10 minutes trying to
understand why Justin had flown of the handle with him and where the hell JC
had  gotton  to.  Thinking  it was possible that JC had gone to see Michael,
Lance  thought to himself that it would be a good idea to go see if he could
find  him.  He  made a silent exit from the hotel suit of Nsync and made his
way  down  to the only other room occupied on that floor. As he was about to
rap  on the door Lance could make out JC and Michaels voices through the not
so thick partition.

"You'll  never  lose me babe, this I promise you. My first impression of you
was  one  of  a man who needed to be loved and I will always be here to love
you  as  long  as  you  are  willing  to  love  me  back."  Lance's head was
spinning...  he thought he had just heard JC propose his love to another man
but it couldn't be,

"Josh...  I...  I don't know if I love you, but I want to see." But as Lance
heard  the joyous reply of Michael, Lance couldn't control himself he felt a
mixture of emotions himself.

                             ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

On hearing the two in the room infront of him confess what seemed to be love
on  JC's  side  and what maybe love from Michael Lance thought it best if he
wasn't around when JC made his exit from the suite. So as quiety as he could
he turned around and made his way back to the room that the rest of the guys
were  at.  Lance's  head was spinning like Justin's was with thoughts of the
two... although the thoughts that Lance was having were different from those
that Justin was toiling with. Lance had to think long and hard about what he
had  heard,  as he did with all business matters Lance had to clear his head
and give one hundred percent to what was going on upn there and with that in
mind he made his way into the main suite and straight past Joey making it to
his room without talking to a sole.

"Nice  to  see  you  too"  Joey said to himself as he continued to watch the
screen infront of him without turning his head.

Whilst  Lance  was making his way back to his room Justin was sitting on his
bed  not sure how to handle the things that he had seen. "Why hadn't he told
me",  "He  told  him,  this sucks... I don't get it, why didn't he tell me?"
were  just  some of the questions that night that Justin kept asking himself
over  and  over again, never actually coming up with any answer that pleased
him.  Most  were  that  he  didn't  trust  him as well as the fact that they
weren't  as  good a friends as he thought they were. But above all the thing
that  got  to  him  the most was that he had confided in someone... just not
him.

                             ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Michael  and  JC  sat looking at each other still encased in the darkness of
the  room.  The  only  light infact coming through the large bay window that
Michael  had  spent  his  first night at. How things had changed in those 24
hours.  He  had  opened  himself  up  to  a  group of guys who were known to
millions as a these five guys and yet not one of them knew the real guys (or
at  least  the  one  guy that Michael sat looking at that minute). He had be
abused  and  manhandled,  and under other circumstances that would have been
more  that  'annoying'  it would have been damn right outragous on Michael's
part but all that seemed accademic to him at this point of time.

"So  what  now?" JC said stroking the right hand side of Michaels cheak then
placing  his  thumb along Michels jaw line he rubbed along Michael's eyebrow
before leaning in and gently pecking his lips.

"I  guess  we have to get some sleep, the question is do you wanna stay here
or  head back to your place?" Michaels voice sounded confident and incontrol
again but his body language showed a different side of him.

"We'll if I do stay all i would want to do is hold you all night long..." as
JC said that Michael's whole posture changed he slumped down into JC's arms,
but  not  out  of  sadness  but out of reliefe, "... after all like you said
earlier  you don't want to take it too quick, and neither do I" and again JC
started to rub Michael cheek.

"So  bed it is", Michael started to get up into a more upright possition and
then made it to his feet holding out his outstreatched hands. Like the first
talked  in  the  suite  across  the  hall not more than 15 hours ago JC took
Michael's  hand  and  a  strange  feeling  shot  though  both of them. Not a
'lighting  bold' as described in so many stories that JC had read online but
a  warm  feeling. After what felt like minutes but in reality was only a few
short seconds Michael started to pull JC to his feet.

JC  wrapped his arms around Michaels waist as they started to make their was
to bedroom to get a well needed sleep.

                             ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Justin  did  eventually  get to sleep but not before tossing and turning for
several  hours which would mean that he was more crankier than normal. Lance
too  had gotten some sleep, he had spent a good four hours thinking over the
situation  and he had decided that he need to have a talk when he woke up in
the  morning  with  some of the group and others, but he did manage to get a
his  normal  amount  of sleep (or normal for when he was on tour, that being
five  hours).  Needless to say JC and Micheal had a well rested sleep, spent
with JC spooning behind Michael all night long. Both sleeping in their night
attire.  Michael  in  his  night  shorts  and  JC  in  his standard black CK
boxer-briefs.

Justing  rubbed his eyes and tossled his hair as he placed his feet one at a
time on the floor. Today was not going to be a good day. He hated it when he
got  such little sleep, mind you he thought to himself JC gets the grumpiest
on  little  sleep, and it was that thought that made him ever more down. God
why  can't  he talk to me about it was his final thought as he pulled on his
wife-beater  and made his way to the main room where he could smell the just
brewed coffee.

Lance  swung  his  feet  out  of bed and landed quarley on the both feet and
almost  jumped  to  his  feet.  Yep  last  nights  thinking had elivated all
negative  thoughts  but  today was the day for talking out his thoughts with
his  'friends'. Not that Lance didn't love each and every one of them it was
just  that  when you spend so much time with each of them you can (every now
and  again)  think  to yourself that you've had enough, and it was this such
morning  that  Lance  had those sort of feeling (not that this sort of thing
would  every  break  up the group or the guys). So that in mind Lance grabed
the complementary hotel robe and slung the towelen robe around his shoulders
and  made his was out to the main room where the sound of dishes being laden
with food could be heard.

Lance  and Justin both emerged from their respective rooms at the same time.
Justin  looking  down at the ground and Lance forward and trying to spot the
person that had made all the noise that had raised him from his sleep.

"Morning  guys... this is some spread, better get to it before Joey finishes
it all off", was Chris chirpy welcome to the two new occupiers of the room.

"As  long  as he a'int eaten my cereal I'll survive but let it be known Joey
if you have touched me breakfast your dead meat" came Justin's reply.

"S'alright  currley  i've  not  touched  them don't worry your pretty little
head.  I've learnt the hard way remember!" Joey spat back in a light hearted
manner wilst stuffing a cream cheese beagal down into his mouth.

Lance  and  Justin  sat  down  with Joey and Chris and began to tuck into to
their  first meal of the day but there was no mention of the lack of JC. Not
that  it  wasn't being thought by all four of the men. Mind you most of them
expected  as  it  was  te norm for JC to over sleep and generally miss their
breakfast,  just so he could get a few hours mor kip in. But two of the four
new  the  real  reason  why  he  was late, although none of them new that JC
hadn't returned to their suit.

                             ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Michael  woke  earlier than JC but stayed still reluctant to move due to the
fact  that  JC  had  his harms firmly encasing him. Michael hadn't felt this
safe  since before that fateful morning when he got that life changing phone
call.

"Morning  sexy...",  JC whispered close to Micaels ear as he started to come
out of his dream like state.

"Well morning to you too Josh, did you sleep well?"

"The  best...",  JC lossened his grip no Michael and then stretched his body
length wise making it so that both bodies were in total contact from head to
toe.

"Umm  that  feels  nice,  but  you  know  there is one thing that feels even
better,"  Michael  purred as the started to leane back onto JC, forcing both
bodies  to bend backwards whilst still in contact. Michael's back started to
pop from the bottom up vibrating through both his and JC's body.

"Jesus, are you alright?" came JC's concerend responce...

"Umm yeah damn good", Michael purred back.

"Ok,  well  I guess we better be getting up, breakfast is probably over with
now,  and that means they'll be looking for me... best not have them find me
here" JC let our a small chuckle at that. Even if it is was nervous chuckle.


"So I'm guessing they don't know your gay then"

"Only  one of them knows but the others... I just got to find the right time
to  tell them I guess." JC's posture tightened up as spoke in quiet tones to
Michael,  but  Michael's body didn't show any sign of recognition of what JC
had  said,  even  though inside Michael was torn about it. Was JC ashamed of
who  he  was, was he ashamed of what Michael was, years ago Michael had come
to terms with who and what he was way before he gained his money.

                             ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

All four of the guys from Nsync had finished their breakfast and still there
was  no  sign  of  JC  so Chris decided to settle the thoughts of the group.
Raising  from  the low seat in the corner that he had been pirched infor the
past  hour  (mind  you  they  had  been  eating  their  fill for the past 45
minutes... breakfast was the most important meal remember)

"JC  can you up?", Chris spoke in a firm but not overly loud tone. But there
was no responce. "JC?", this time Chris rapped on the door to JC's room.

"Umm  over  here  Chris..."  JC  mummbled from the door to the main suit. It
didn't  go  un-noticed  that JC was still wearing the clothes from the night
before.

"So  where  did  you  spend the night then mister?" came an overly agrivated
question from the youngest of the group.

"He  spent  the  night  at mine, we had a bit to talk about, and such like",
came the reply from behind JC, but it wasn't until JC stepped aside that the
smartly dressed Michael came into view.

"Right,  if  you  say so" was the pissy reply that came back from Justin, "I
think we all know what you were up to".

"Justin, shut it" JC spoke firmly.

"No" cam a defiant shout from Justin.

"Yes" came an even more forceful retort from JC.

"I know what you two were upto..." came the third voice from the room.
