Chapter seven:

When the morning came, JC was still using Joey as a pillow, something Joey
didn't mind at all.

JC stretched a little, never leaving his boyfriend's side. -Good morning,
he said sleepily. -How did you know I was awake? Joey sounded
surprised. -You're playing with my hair! JC said with a smile. -Oh, Joey
said, pulling his hand away. -I didn't mean to wake you... -You didn't, JC
answered, -amd you don't have to stop either.  -No, Joey only said, letting
his fingers brush through JC's short hair. Then he let his fingers focus
their attention on JC's neck, making JC sigh in pleasure.

-Why can't every morning be like this? JC thought. -Just me and Joey,
together like this...his thoughts trailed off in sleepy fantasies about
what those mornings could develop into.

Joey had assumed JC had gone back to sleep when he felt JC's hand start to
move slowly on his chest. It moved upwards, rubbing over a nipple on the
way, making Joey draw his breath in deeply. JC's hand moved innocently on,
locking around his shoulder for a little while. It shifted and crept up the
side of Joey's neck. The thumb traced his jawline, while the other four
fingers continued into Joey's hair. The feeling was amazing, Joey had never
felt a touch so powerful. He still wasn't sure if JC was fully awake, but
didn't want to wake him up to find out. He would wake up anyway, when Joey
couldn't resist the urge to kiss him breathless anymore.

One finger was gently rubbing the sensitive spot behind his ear, Joey held
his breath now as JC moved a little, bringing his face closer to Joey's
neck. At first Joey only felt JC's warm breath making his skin tingle. Then
JC tasted him with the tip of his tongue.  Joey almost forgot to breathe,
he felt shocks of intense passion rush through him. JC moved even closer,
and he began to nibble on Joey's neck. He bit lightly down, feeling Joey's
hand stroking his back. Joey would slide his hand down JC's back, then do
the same thing on his way back up, only this time scraping carefully with
his nails. JC let out a soft moan while licking his way up until he reached
Joey's other ear.  Teasingly he bit down again, this time on the upper half
of Joey's ear.

Now Joey used both his hands and placed them at the waistline of JC's
jeans, he had to feel more of his lover. Impatient he pulled JC's white
T-shirt out of his pants and let one hand slip inside. Deciding that that
wouldn't be enough, he moved the T-shirt further up. JC knew what he was
doing and helped getting the T-shirt off. The feeling of his naked skin
meeting Joey's sent sparks of raw lust through his body.

Joey's caresses became a little more daring as he let the hand that wasn't
on JC's back move down to his denim-clad behind. JC pratically purred his
pleasure into Joey's ear.  Joey could feel his boyfriend's erection on his
thigh as JC was nearly on top of him, the feeling drove him wild. As JC
went for his lips for the first time that morning Joey pulled him properly
on top of him, bringing their groins in direct contact.  -Oh God! JC
gasped, his lips close to Joey's. Greedily he kissed Joey, pushing his
tongue deep inside his mouth.

The rough feeling of the fabric in JC's jeans rubbing against his bare skin
almost had Joey reaching his climax at the first touch. Determined to
prolong their play of passion Joey held out, and started to move against
JC. He could feel JC trembling under his touch, he knew he wouldn't last
much longer either.

The pleasure was just too strong, every little move sent flames of
incredible enjoyment all over his body. Their kissing muffled all the
moans, as they again and again met in fiery displays of passion.

Joey couldn't take anymore, he arched his back, pressing his whole body
tightly against JC's. A deep, throaty groan of ecstacy escaped him and he
thought he would drown in neverending wawes of pleasure in the most perfect
climax he had ever experienced.

JC's fingers were clutching the sheets on the bed as Joey could feel his
body tensing up, this time he didn't stop himself from calling Joey's
name. Breathless he collapsed onto Joey who embraced him. His body was
filled with liquid fire, soaking him in ecstacy, making him weak and mighty
at the same time.

Minute after minute ticked away, both men were too tired to speak. JC
stayed where he was, he had no energy left to move. Joey was holding him
close, still in awe over what had happened between them. It was the first
time he had let it all go that way, he had never been lost in desire in
that way before. It had all happen too quickly for him to wonder about it
being right or wrong.

-I'm sorry, he said to JC, remembering JC's words the night before. JC
lifted his head and looked down on Joey. -For what? he said, sounding
confused and a little worried.  -Didn't you want this? -I did! Joey
answered him immedeately. -But you wanted to wait, you said that we weren't
ready... His words was silenced as JC kissed him sweetly. -Joey, he said
with a hundred smiles in his voice, -I've been horny as hell about every
day lately, just the thought of you will have me ready and eager.  But I
said what I did `cause you aren't ready for us to go all the way yet. But
soon enough I'll show you how it can be...I'll fulfill every fantasy you
can come up with.

Joey just knew he was blushing under JC's intense look. -So you aren't mad
that we did this? he asked, he needed to make sure JC was serious. -I loved
it! JC answered and gave Joey another kiss, -you just gave me the best
sexual experience of my life, babe, how can I be angry because of that? I
love you, Joey, he said playfully tugging on a lock of red hair. -Don't you
ever forget that. -I love you too, Tigger, Joey sighed and put his arms
around JC again. -Tigger? JC asked with his mouth close to Joey's
ear. -Yeah, Joey said smiling. -'Cause you purr and growl like a tiger, but
a sweet, cuddly kind of one... -Grrrr, JC growled into Joey's ear, -I like
that. I'll be your tigger...

Justin woke up to the bright sunshine filling the room. Sometime during the
night he had wrapped himself around Lance, nearly crushing the smaller
man. However, Lance was still sound asleep under him, one arm around
Justin's waist. And Justin felt too good to move anyway, so he relaxed
against Lance again.

He was almost sleeping again when Lance moved. Quickly Justin pulled
himself away, he didn't want Lance to wake up to the two of them being all
cuddly and close.  Lance turned a little and then yawned without opening
his eyes. -Sleep good?  he asked, knowing that Justin was right beside
him. -Like a baby, Justin answered, before he regretted leaving himself
open for another baby-joke. But it never came.

-That's good, Lance said, still keeping his eyes closed. -So why did you
move away when you thought I was waking up? Justin became nervous as he
realised that Lance must have been awake for longer than he had
thought. -Because I thought it would make you feel uncomfortable, Justin
answered. -I didn't want you to feel you were forced to do anything that
you didn't really want too...

Lance opened his green eyes. -You think too much, Justin, he said, -you
know it's not good for your head...now come here. Justin didn't think twice
about going back into Lance's warm embrace. He felt safe there, and truly
enjoyed having Lance hold him like he did.

Lance closed his eyes again and rested his chin against Justin's
curls. They were both feeling cozy and comfortable and it didn't take long
for them to drift off into sleep again.

JC had finally moved enough to take a closer look at Joey. -How are you
feeling today? he asked, letting his hand rest on Joey's forehead. -I think
your fever is starting to go away, you're not as warm as you were
yesterday. -I feel a hell of a lot better, Joey said. -But of course that
could have something to do with what we just did... JC smiled down at him,
-yeah, I can see people standing in line for a little something like that
at the drug-store... A little something of me? Joey asked innocently.  -No,
you're all mine, JC said. -Let them find their own Joey. He looked a little
thoughtful. -Nah, that wouldn't be possible. There's only one Joey and he's
all mine.

Joey had to laugh. -You know that you're crazy, don't you? -Crazy about
you, JC answered unaffected. -Now, wanna go take a bath with me? -I
definetely could use a shower, Joey said, -but since I'm still a little
unsure about the whole standing-up issue, a hot bath sounds perfect. -A
very hot one, JC said with a wide grin. -You're incorrigible, Joshua, Joey
said. -But I kinda like you that way. You probably would do better with a
cold shower, but this will have to do. -I'm done with cold showers, JC
answered him. He let his hand roam swiftly over Joey's hips, touching the
center ever so slightly. -But there are lots of fun you and I can get up to
in there anyway...

After he had bent down and kissed Joey once again, he jumped out of the
bed.  -I'll go run the water, feel free to join me at any time! Joey found
himself smiling again. Could it be that he had discovered the secret to get
JC up in the mornings? And without his usual grumpiness too, Joey could
hear JC singing to himself in the bathroom.  He had to test this out a
little.

After wrapping a sheet loosely around his naked body, Joey joined JC in the
other room. -Going toga-style, babe? JC wondered with one lifted eyebrow,
at the sight of Joey. -Not really, Joey said and let the sheet fall to the
floor. JC nearly fell in the tub.

-You did that on purpose! he told Joey, pouting and trying to hide his
smile.  -Of course, Joey said with a slow smile.  JC had the most adorable
pout. -Why don't you get all naked too? he asked. -Then we'll be
even... The very thought of JC undressed made his voice just a little
deeper, enough to let the passion shine through.  -Anything for you, JC
said and started to undo the buttons of his jeans.

As the bathtub was being filled with hot water, JC got rid of all his
clothes and threw them in a pile on the floor. Joey had never seen JC all
naked before, and he absolutely loved what he saw.

JC's body was slender, yet muscular. Joey let his eyes follow JC's long
legs, over to his slim hips, trying not the let his gaze linger too much
there, then admiring a well-defined chest and broad shoulders. -Like what
you see? JC asked sensually.  -Yeah! Joey returned the smile. -Now I'll
have to make you walk around naked all the time. -As long as you're naked
with me, JC answered and ran his hand through the water to check the
temperature. He added a generous portion of a sweet-smelling soap, smiling
at the bubbles. Carefully he stepped into the tub, finding a comfortable
position, leaning his back againt the side of it.

The sight of JC leaning back with a content sigh and his eyes closed, was
unbeliveably erotic, Joey was enjoying watching too much to move. JC opened
his eyes again.  -Are you going to join me, Joey, or are you just going to
stand there watching me?  -I'm coming, I'm coming, Joey answered and got in
the tub. -My, aren't we impatient today! He was sitting opposite JC and JC
kept looking at him. -That won't do, he said.  -You're too far away. Come
over here to me. -If you insist, Joey said with a smile, they both knew he
would gladly come.

-Now that's much better, JC said as he could put his arms around Joey's
chest.  -Isn't it? -Much better! Joey agreed. After some minutes of
relaxation, JC grabbed a bottle of shampoo. He took some in his hand and
started to wash Joey's dark hair. -Are you going to dye it again? he asked
while keeping his fingers entangled in Joey's hair.  -Maybe, Joey
answered. -What do you think? -Hmmm, JC said, -it did look good on you, but
you're damn cute with just the red streaks too though. Just don't cut it, I
love to run my hands through your hair. -I won't, Joey promised. He bent
forward a little to allow JC to rinse out the shampoo.

After JC was done, Joey leaned back again. They were both covered in
bubbles all the way to their shoulders, the whole room scented of
strawberries and a hint of vanilla.  Joey folded his arms on top of JC's,
he could feel JC's chin against his right temple.  -Feel OK? JC asked
softly. -I haven't felt this good in ages, Joey admitted.  -I finally feel
like everything is going be allright. -I'm so glad to hear that, JC said
and kissed Joey on the cheek. -I intend to make your happiness the purpose
of my life, Joey.

-Do you really love me that much? Joey asked shyly, he still had trouble
believing how deep JC's feeling for him were. -I love you more than
anything, JC answered, -more than I thought it was possible for one heart
to bear. I think I loved you from the first time I saw you and along the
way it grew into this...now I'll never let you get away from me again.

-I don't want to be away from you either, Joey said.-You made me believe in
love again, Josh. I had convinced myself that I couldn't love anybody
again. Then you came along. You saved me, Tigger, if you hadn't found me I
don't know what I would have done... -God, Joey! JC whispered and tightened
his hold on Joey, -you had me so scared that day, I thought I was going to
loose you.

A moment passed in silence as they just enjoyed being together and in love.
-I love you, Josh, Joey said, -please tell me that this is forever. -It's
forever, JC answered him warmly, -trust me. Now that you are mine, I can't
stand us ever being apart again.

In another room Justin and Lance woke up again, this time comfortably
cuddled up in each other's arms. For a while they just remained like
that. -I guess we have to get up, Lance then said with a sigh. -I know,
Justin said. He reluctantly pulled away from Lance. -I should be going back
to my own room, he said in a shy tone and smiled a little at
Lance. -Thanks, Lance, he suddenly said and leaned in for a quick kiss on
Lance's cheek.

He could see that Lance was surprised, but he was smiling very sweetly. -No
problem, Justin. -I'll see you later then? Justin said. -Ok, Lance
nodded. -See you later. Justin left Lance's room, still smiling to himself.

Chris saw Justin get out of Lance's room, only dressed in a pair of
pyjamaspants and a T-shirt. Slightly intrigued he wondered what was going
on between his two youngest bandmates. That would have to wait anyway, he
had something else to talk to Lance about.

After he was sure that Justin had gotten safely back into his own room,
Chris went over to Lance's door. Well inside he locked eyes with Lance who
was still in bed.  -I know you're planning something about Jim, he calmly
stated, not giving Lance a chance to protest. -Don't give me that innocent
look. I know you are and I want in.

Lance looked at him. -Chris, are you sure? Wouldn't it be better if you let
this go?  -Like you? Chris remarked. Then he sat down on Lance's bed. -I
have to do something, Scoop, or I'll go crazy. And getting back at Jim
sounds mighty fine at the moment.

-Ok, Lance said slowly, -if you're sure... He got hold of his lap top and
turned it on. -I found out where he lives now and I have something very
special in mind for Jimmy-dearest...
