How Deep Is Your Love - Chapter 2
by JT Poole

// Orlando, FL - Justin and JC's House //

"Yo Justin, what are you doing down there?"  JC called down the stairs.

"Nothing, just mind your business!"  Justin shouted back.

"What the hell is all the commotion down here?"  JC asked as he came
downstairs to witness Justin and Joey fighting.

"Just stay out of this Josh!"  Justin screamed.

"Let him get in this!  You are the one being a fucking asshole Justin!"
Joey shouted.

"What's the matter Joey?"  JC asked.

"I told Justin that I was gay and he went off on me.  I thought he would
understand, with you being gay and all, but I guess I was wrong."  Joey
stated.

"You are gay too?  Why didn't you tell me?"  JC asked.

"I wasn't ready to tell anyone until now.  I thought now would be a good
time to tell everyone since we were on this extended break while you two
are playing solo."  Joey explained.

"I didn't go off on you because you told me, I went off on you because I
caught you and you thought it was safe to tell me!"  Justin stated.

"Caught him, caught him doing what?"  JC asked.

"Tell him Joey, tell him what I caught you doing!"  Justin screamed.

"Justin, that's not important.  You are blowing things way out of
proportion."  Joey spoke.

"No the fuck I am not!  Tell him Joey!"  Justin screamed again.

"Just tell me Joe, then 'Princess' here will stop screaming and disturbing
the peace."  JC said.

"He caught me coming out of a gay bar with a guy."  Joey stated.

"Tell him who it was Joey!"  Justin screamed, causing JC to push him down
on the sofa.

"It was...it was."  Joey stuttered, "Kaj Eriksen."

"Who is that?"  JC asked.

"He's the little kid from that cop show, you know the little kid from 'The
Commish'."  Justin stated.  "He's so innocent!"

"I still don't know who that is.  I am quite sure if this person was in a
bar with Joey they were old enough to be there."  JC stated.

"I just told you who it was Josh, the young kid from that cop show.  Joey
should be ashamed.  Do you know what people would think if someone saw you
two?"  Justin asked.

"No Justin, tell me what they would think!"  Joey shouted, annoyed at
Justin and his attitude.

"They would think you were a perverted child molester!"  Justin screamed.

"Justin I am not a child molester!  Kaj is 24 years old!"  Joey shouted.

"Well he's legal.  Justin, why don't you just give all of this up and just
mind your own business.  You have no right to be in Joey's business the way
you are right now."  JC stated.

"Ain't that the damn truth!  I came here to talk to Josh, not you!"  Joey
stated, walking out of the room with JC following him.

// Kevin Richardson's House //

"Hi, you guys finally made it."  Kristin spoke.

"Hi Kristin, is Kevin around, I need to talk to him."  Brian stated,
walking into the house.

"He's upstairs in his office, I'll go up and get him."  Kristin stated.

"Thanks."  Brian stated.

"So what are you going to do about that wife of yours?"  Nick asked.

"I don't know Nick.  For the last couple of months, I have been thinking
about how things would have been if I would have stayed with Joey."  Brian
stated.

"You have?  Why?"  Nick asked.

"I think I still love him.  I have been thinking about him so much lately.
I think that's the reason why I finally agreed to fly out here to see you
guys to get away from Leigh."  Brian stated.

"So are you going to go see him?"  Nick asked.

"I don't know.  I want to talk to Kev first and tell him how I feel about
things and get his opinion on things."  Brian stated.

"Cool, so what do you want to do?  Do you want to stay with Leighanne, or
be with Joey?"  Nick asked.

"Right now, I would rather be with Joey, but I don't want to leave my son."
Brian stated, "I can't leave Baylee with her, I love him.  I want to be
around him, I don't want him growing up without a father."

"I know that Brian, but you can't have everything you want.  If you divorce
her, you know she's going to want to keep Baylee, and if she finds out that
you want to go back to Joey, she would be furious."  Nick stated.

"The only reason why I married her was because I felt it would be right.  I
didn't think things would turn out like this.  I thought we would have a
nice loving family and we would live happily ever after."  Brian explained.

"Brian get your head out the clouds."  Kevin stated, walking into the room,
causing Nick and Brian to turn around and look at him.  "We all told you
that you shouldn't have married her."

"That's true B-Rok we did tell you that she was only in it for the name."
Nick stated.

"Yeah ya did, but I honestly believed that she would love me after we had
been together for a while."  Brian stated, as he lowered his head as tears
filled his eyes.  "I should have stayed with the person that loved me."

"Well far as I know, Joey is still single.  His last boyfriend treated him
very badly, and he went into therapy."  Kevin stated.

"How do you know all of this Kev?"  Brian asked.

" I was at Jive when Johnny introduced him to the person that would be his
therapist."  Kevin spoke.  "Seems the guy was cruel and violent towards
Joey.  Did all kinds of horrible things to him."

"What!!!  Why didn't you tell me Kev?"  Brian asked.

"There was no reason to tell you, it wasn't your business anymore and you
are married to Leighanne remember.  You are not with Joey anymore."  Kevin
stated.

"But he wants to be."  Nick stated.

"Well Bri, I think it's a little too late now.  You should have thought
about that before Baylee came along."  Kevin stated.

"I know I know, but I can't change that now.  He's here and there isn't
anything I wouldn't do for that little boy."  Brian stated.

"You are between the proverbial rock and hard place."  Nick spoke.

"Brian, have you tried talking to Leighanne about how she treats you?"
Kristin asked.

"Yeah, which only makes her bitch and argue more."  Brian stated.

"Well what are your options?"  Kristen asked.

"He has none."  Nick stated.

"I can't take the abuse from Leighanne anymore."  Brian stated, "You know,
Baylee is the only thing keeping me with her.  If there was a way to keep
Baylee with me, I would leave her and try to get back with Joey."  Brian
stated, as Kristin walked to the kitchen to get the guys some drinks.

// Justin and JC's House //

"Joey how are things really going with you?  I know you are trying to get
on with your life, but I don't think you are adjusting."  JC spoke.

"I'm okay.  I just need to find a guy that doesn't treat me like crap."
Joey stated.

"I am so sorry I didn't see what Carson was doing to you, and I definitely
didn't see that Nate was just as bad."  JC stated.

"It's okay.  I am over Nate, seems he got better when they rehired him to
play `Harvey `on Sabrina again.  The problem with him was that he was
afraid that he wasn't going to find another actor job.  David just had
mental problems altogether."  Joey explained.

"Well Carson scared me anyway.  He couldn't seem to separate his personal
life from his TV personality.  I remember the day he started screaming at
you, thinking that you were one of the groupies on TRL.  That was a sign
then that he had some screws loose somewhere in his head."  JC stated.

"Well they are no longer around.  I have moved on."  Joey stated.

"I hope we can find what we both are looking for.  I am tired of being
alone."  JC stated.

"I miss Brian.  I wish he were here with me now.  He's the only guy I knew
that ever treated me right.  He would still be with me, if he hadn't got
married."  Joey stated.

"I miss him too.  We had fun when he was around.  He was good for you.
Back then you were happy."  JC stated.

"Yeah I was.  Wonder what he's doing now."  Joey stated, looking out into
the distance.
