How Deep Is Your Love -- Chapter 20
by JT Poole

// Orlando, FL -- Hospital Parking Lot //

"Josh, Nick what are you two doing?"  Justin asked as he walked over to the
two of them.

"Justin, what are you doing here?"  JC asked.

"I was about to ask you the same thing.  Are my eyes deceiving me?  Did I
just see you kiss Nick Carter?"  Justin asked.

"Well ummm...uhhhh...well..."  JC stammered out.

"Well did I?"  Justin asked again.  "Are you a fucking queer?"

"Justin!"  Nick screamed.

"Don't yell at me you fucking faggot!"  Justin screamed at Nick.

"Justin!  Why are you being so rude?"  JC asked.

"I am not being rude.  How am I supposed to be when I get out of my car and
see someone I thought was my best friend kissing another guy!"  Justin
screamed.

"You are being rude Justin!"  JC screamed back.  "You came over here and
started screaming at Nick!  Nick's my boyfriend and I don't appreciate you
screaming at him."

"I don't believe this.  You are a fucking queer!"  Justin screamed as he
stomped off towards the hospital entrance.

"Great, this is just what we need!"  JC stated as he turned around and
wrapped his arms around Nick's waist.

"Everything's going to be alright baby.  Don't worry about it."  Nick
stated.

"No it isn't."  JC stated.  "Someone just took a picture of us just a moment
ago, then Justin pops up and he's acting homophobic, and we have to deal
with Leighanne and the shit she's spreading around."

"Everything will work out like it's supposed to be.  Just calm down baby and
let's go back inside and check on Joey and Brian."  Nick stated as he kissed
JC passionately on the lips and the two of them walked towards the hospital
entrance.

// Brian's Hospital Room //

"I am glad they are going to get you moved into a regular room."  Joey
stated.

"I just want to get out of here and go home."  Brian said.

"Where is home son?"  Jackie asked.

"His home is with me."  Joey stated.  "I have enough room for him and Baylee
in my house."

"Joey are you sure you are ready for that kind of responsibility?"  Jackie
asked.

"Yes son are you ready for that kind of responsibility?"  Phyllis Fatone
asked as she walked into the hospital room.

"Mom, what are you doing here?"  Joey asked.

"As soon as Joshua called me and told me what was going on last night, I
jumped on a plane and came here."  Phyllis stated walking over to Joey and
hugging him, then leaning over to hug Brian.  "How are you doing Brian?"

"I am doing okay right now, I just want to go home."  Brian stated.  "This
place is starting to get on my nerves."

"Well sorry honey, you can't go home until the doctor says you are okay and
verifies that you are a-okay."  Joey stated as he leaned over and kissed
Brian on the cheek.

"There you are, can I see you outside?"  Justin asked as he walked into the
room.  "I mean you Joe."

"What's wrong Justin?"  Joey asked.

"Outside.  I will not talk to you in here."  Justin stated.

"Justin is there something wrong?"  Phyllis asked.  "Is everything okay?"

"Everything is fine Mrs. Fatone."  Justin stated as he turned to walk out of
the room.

"Mrs. Fatone?  He always call me by my name.  Something is wrong with him
baby."  Phyllis stated as Joey got up to walk out of the room to see what
Justin wanted.

"What's up Justin?  Is everything okay?"  Joey asked as he stepped out of
the room.

"No!  Everything isn't okay!"  Justin screamed at Joey.

"Just, calm down.  What's going on?  What has you so upset?"  Joey asked.

"You and JC have me all upset."  Justin stated.

"What have we done to upset you?"  Joey asked.

"Well you are gay and now he's gay.  It's your fault that he's gay!"  Justin
screamed again as JC and Nick came walking around the corner along with two
Security Officers.

"Is everything okay here Mr. Fatone?"  one of the officers asked.

"Yes we are just discussing some things."  Joey stated.

"Seems like you are discussing, he's screaming again."  Nick stated as he
and JC arrived at Brian's room.

"Can you just stay out of this!"  Justin stated, glaring at Nick.

"What did Nick do to you?"  JC asked.

"He's responsible for perverting you."  Justin stated as he stomped off down
the hall.

"Okay, did I miss something?"  Joey asked.

"I guess I should have told him I was gay."  JC stated.  "You didn't miss
much Joey, he caught me and Nick outside showing affection and he went off
out there too."

"So he's got to come in here and act all rude, that's not like Justin."
Joey stated.  "I think something is wrong with him Jayce."

"Maybe but right now, I don't want to deal with him.  I might make things
worse for slapping him."  JC stated.

"How is Brian doing, is he feeling any better?"  Nick asked.

"Yeah, he claims to be feeling okay.  He's already complaining about going
home."  Joey laughed.  "I already told him he couldn't go home until the
doctor says he's okay."

"He's only been here for a day, and he's complaining already, damn, we
should have made that bet after all."  JC laughed.

"Hey, leave my man alone.  He just don't like hospitals."  Joey stated.

// Orlando Police Dept. //

"Hello Mrs. Littrell, I  Howard Marshall how are you today?"  the man asked.

"Who the hell are you?"  Leighanne asked.  "What the hell do you want?"

"I am one of the lawyers working for  Mr. Littrell."  The man stated.

"Okay what the hell do you want?"  Leighanne asked.

"Well Mrs. Wallace, Mr. Littrell sent me here to see if you would settle out
of court with his brother?"  the man asked.

"His brother!?!  You are not working for Brian?"  Leighanne asked.

"No I am not.  Mr. Harold Littrell Jr. hired me."  The man stated.

"Well ain't that some shit."  Leighanne stated.  "Now he has his brother
fighting his battles for him."

"Well I am in contact with Mr. Littrell's lawyers and so far we are all
working for the same thing."  The man stated.  "Mr. Littrell no longer wants
to be married to you and he wants to sever all ties with you."

"Well he can't do that as long as we have something in common."  Leighanne
stated.

"What is that Mrs. Littrell?"  the man asked.

"We have a baby together.  He will never be able to sever all ties with me."
Leighanne spoke.

"Mr. Littrell and his mother have both filed for joint custody of the
 child."  The man stated.  "Right now, the main goal of everything is to get
Brian and Baylee out of the dangerous environment you have them in."

"What dangerous environment?"  Leighanne asked.

"Being around you, in your environment is dangerous."  The man stated.

"Excuse me!"  Leighanne screamed.

"Ma'am all of the lawyers and judges involved with this case have all seen
medical reports and other material that was needed as evidence to separate
you and Mr. Littrell, the divorce is already final, now we are trying to
come to some sort of custody agreement that will minimize danger."  The man
stated.

"The divorce is final?  We haven't even had a trial."  Leighanne stated.

"Ma'am in this case, a trial wasn't needed due to the dire circumstances."
The man stated.

"What circumstances?"  Leighanne asked.

"Recent events in the media and Mr. Littrell's current medical status."  The
man stated.

"Well I am not going to let you all get away with this.  I will appeal all
of this."  Leighanne stated.

"You have that option Mrs. Littrell, but right now, with all the evidence we
have against you, you don't have a leg to stand on."  The man stated.  "As I
said, we are trying to come to a suitable custody agreement."

"Well you won't get one.  I am not going to let that faggot have my child.
I am not going to go against everything I know and have been taught, by
giving Baylee to Brian and that Joey!"  Leighanne screamed.

"Well right now, Brian and  Jackie Littrell have both petitioned the court
for custody of Baylee and Mr. Fatone has also petitioned the court to adopt
him as well."  The man stated.  "Brian and Joey's sexual preference or
orientation  isn't going to have any effect on this case."

"They can't do it.  Florida doesn't allow homosexuals to adopt children."
Leighanne stated.

"I know that Mrs. Littrell, but Mr. Fatone still petitioned the court."  The
man stated.

"Look here Mr. Howard Marshall, you tell Brian, Harold Jr. Joey and anyone
else involved that I am not giving up my child, so they might as well forget
it.  I am going to fight them until I can't fight anymore."  Leighanne
stated.

"Do what you want Mrs. Littrell, but you will loose it all."  The man stated
as he got up, knocked on the door as the guard came to let him out of the
room.
