DISCLAIMER:

This series is entirely fiction. It is by no means an inference into who
Nsync is and any of the band members sexuality. If you are under the legal
age to read this I now request you leave.  If you are offended by M/M
topics, I would ask that you remove yourself from reading this story as
well.  I am by no means affiliated with JIVE/ZOMBA Records.

AUTHOR'S WORDS:

I want to let people know that I am deeply sorry about the delays that this
series is receiving. I have been having a few fuck ups in life at the
moment. Recently I got an email from someone who I will not name, but he
appreciated this series for it's reality and was using it to draw strength
from to come out. The few words he used in his email meant so much to me
that I cannot begin to explain it to you.  To the reader, you know who you
are, I hope that all goes well with you my friend... things are always hard
and I pray that life will treat you well as you endeavour to work it out. I
wish to thank everyone who reads the series... without you, it would never
have made as far as it has... all 32 chapters of it. Thank you, my love and
gratitude to it all.

AUTHOR'S THANKS:

I want to thank so many people now but I don't know where to start.  Well
to start, I should thank the Nifty Archivist who has allowed me to post
this series on his site and has continued to let me. Next I would like to
thank my most devout reader, Jordan.  My young friend, you are amazing. You
have a sense of knowledge and street smarts that belies your age. Welcome
to my family.  Carsten, my friend, your support to this series and to me
with all that has happened, words cannot say thank you enough. You are one
in a million. Your way with words always manage to make me smile and make
me realise when I've fucked up in the story some where. Without you, JC
Dreams would be totally and utterly rooted at times. At times, when I feel
I'm slipping within me, I know that I can write and just talk to you
Carsten, you will never know what that means to me. You are one in a
million and I can't think of what to say now to try and explain what's
inside... some author huh. Tim, the net is a big place and it can also be a
dangerous place. Keep in mind the lessons I have taught. Things can go
wrong, but it is up to you to make them right. To anyone who has read and
written in... thanks, your words of support are a blessing to me in
disguise. You may not realise the impact but they are all amazing. Paul, my
angel, my friend and my heart. I cannot begin to tell you all that I hide
in my heart and all that I know eternally within. There is so much
potential in all that I see with you. I can see the movie director, I can
see the young man, I can see the caring lover. I now challenge you Paul,
see what I do. Even if you don't become big and famous, you still make me
proud of you for being you. I love you for it, and I miss you baby. To
those who have read and not written in, thanks for just reading.

AUTHOR RECOMMENDS:

Jamie's Romance - (Boy Bands) - Staring Justin (Nsync) and Jamie
(non-celeb) in a fantastic read. Well done to Jim in the
unbelievable ways you write your story. I want to be able to write like you
one day, as an author, you are a huge 	role model to me.

Just Together - (Celebrity) - Michael (From Dawson's Creek) and Jonnah
(tech crew) are written into an amazing story which 	pulls at all the
heart strings. Without this series, I would be lost.

Search and Rescue - (Boy Bands) - Nsync story with JC (duh) and Matt
(non-celeb)... and the author's a slack bastard!! He's 	worse than I am at
updating. LOL... now that says somnething. Leave us hanging why don't
ya... write more.

JC Dreams 32

As Tony and JC bounded down into the lobby, they found Justin, Lance and
Chris waiting for them.
   "Where's Joey?" Asked Tony looking around. Justin shrugged,
   "Don't know, none of us have seen him at all today. He's disappeared on
us... prick." Tony nodded and sat down and looked around at the people and
saw a familiar face walk through the crowd and towards them. Touching
Justin lightly on the arm he nodded out the window.
   "Don't look now but your mate is around." Justin looked confused then
towards the direction Tony had motioned. His face grew pale, then tight. JC
noticed and looked in the direction motioned.
   "Oh fuck, what does he want?"
   "Bad groupie?" Guessed Chris who had spied the figure as well. As the
uninvited guest arrived at the four he spoke.
   "Hey guys, fancy seeing you here. I thought only Tony the Wonder Geek
was here."
   "Fuck off Steve." Said Justin dangerously.
   "Why? What are ya going to do?" Dared Steve. "Try and explain why boy
wonder, super pop-icon hit a fan to the press. They'd have a field day."
Justin looked away. Joey appeared beside Steve, his hand on the two
pressure points the back of Steve's neck.
   "You have five seconds from when I let go of your neck to disappear,
otherwise we won't be held responsible for any harm inflicted on you."
Lonnie appeared on the other side.
   "Don't you hate it when people attack the band you are bodyguarding. You
kinda have to break their nose in several places and inflict great pain on
them." Steve snarled lightly.
   "Try it and I'll sue."
   "Go for it, Lonnie was only doing his job defending us." Justin
threw. Joey let go of Steve and started to count. Steve looked at the group
in disgust.
   "This ain't over... not by a long shot." With that he stalked off, a
storm cloud dangling over his head. The group looked at each other,
shrugged and prepared to leave.

At the stadium, the guys looked around and prepared for rehearsals and
sound check. Tony was up first and blasted his way through the first set
and was then replaced by the guys.  Getting back stage, Tony looked out
over the stage watching the guys do their thing. Soon he returned to the
stage and bounded through his set, his duets with Justin and JC, then onto
the stage came the other three and they went through the new version of
'Pop' with Tony in rap mode. Tony then left the stage as the guys launched
into several other pieces. Soon it was time for wind-up and the guys and
Tony sat on the stools for "This I Promise You" and sang away. Fatima came
up to them and selected a few songs and did a run through of the routines
with the guys that she felt needed sharpening. When all was done and
complete the group all headed back to the dressing rooms to prepare.

Sitting down in a couch provided Tony soon found JC sitting on his lap.
   "And Santa, for Christmas I want..." He laughed. Tony rolled his eyes
and put his head against JC who kissed the top of his head. They sat there
feeling comfort in each other's presence.
   "What am I going to do with you?" Moaned Tony.
   "Nothing that I can say infront of this lot." He grinned and Joey
blanched at the thought. Tony caught the movement in the corner of his eyes
and grinned.
   "Oh don't be like that Joey. You know you enjoyed it last night when we
let you join in with us. You were moaning and groaning. Normally I don't
like the "more more more" people, but you did it so well and all." Tony
said poking his tongue at Joey who just blushed. Giggling, the group headed
in for make up and costumes.

Standing backstage waiting for cues to go on stage the group could hear the
crowd chanting outside, calling their names, screaming for the excitement
of just being there. Tony got cued to go on and the band started
playing. The crowd roared in response to the pick-up in music. Chad, who
was playing guitar called out,
    "Alright, time to come on Tony!" Into his mic. He looked around.
    "Tony? Tony Scott where are you?" His voice was stern and the crowd
fell silent.
    "I'm here." Came Tony's voice from one side of the stage.
    "Actually, I'm here." Came his voice from the other. Suddenly, a bright
stream of light streamed down into the centre of the stage.
    "No, I'm here." The band blasted out it's tune and Tony looked at the
crowd.


	When you look to your side
	Do you still see an empty space?
	Or am I there for the ride?
	At your side is my place

	You can't see all that I hold
	All the special things you make me feel
	You still treat me with shoulders cold
	How do you know what I feel isn't real?

		You look and run
		You don't see me where you are
		You refuse to look at me in the sun
		Together, we will go so so far

	Look inside your heart for the truth
	It stares you right in the face
	It says that I can love you with no other truth
	It makes an easier life's race

	Can you tell me you don't know me?
	Can you say that you don't know
	Can you tell me you don't love me?
	Can you say that you don't love

		You look and run
		You don't see me where you are
		You refuse to look at me in the sun
		Together, we will go so so far

	I love you to the end of days
	I love you within my heart
	I love you totally always
	I love you even when we're apart

	When you look to your side
	Do you still see an empty space?
	Or am I there for the ride?
	At your side is my place

		You look and run
		You don't see me where you are
		You refuse to look at me in the sun
		Together, we will go so so far


   "How are we people?" Called Tony into his mic. The crowd screamed back
at him and he waved.
   "You know, I think that we're going to have fun tonight... what about
you?" He asked and the crowd screamed again.
   "Well, now I'd like to share with you a new song from my new album
'DueTwo', I hope you like it." Tony picked up his guitar and started to
play.

	So long away from you, my love
	Wanting so much to hold you
	In the places under the covers
	Why? because I love you

		I want to be right by your side
		I want to be there every day
		I want to be on your life's ride
		I want to be there in any way

	At night I dream only of you
	When I awake you're the first thing
	When I sleep you're the last thing, my thoughts are with you
	And of wondering how you're feeling

		I want to be right by your side
		I want to be there every day
		I want to be on your life's ride
		I want to be there in any way

	So many miles are we apart
	So much closer do I want to be
	The love for you has no end and no start
	Because IO always want you with me

		I want to be right by your side
		I want to be there every day
		I want to be on your life's ride
		I want to be there in any way


	I can only wait eternity
	Because forever isn't long
	I hope we are blessed by the deity
	And our seperation isn't too long.

The audience was momentarily speechless with the breath taking beauty of
the song and then roared their appreciation to Tony who smiled
back. Blasting through several more song, Nsync soon ran out to replace
Tony who waved and went off stage. Getting backstage he ran straight into
Britney who was being escorted by Lonnie.
   "Brit, what are you doin' here?" He asked.
   "Makin' sure you guys do tonight right." She grinned winking.
   "Am I thinkin' that there is going to be guest appearances?" He
asked. She nodded.
   "Space Cowboy, the two of us are to do Left Eye's rap. The guys just
don't know it yet. The band's in, Nsync aren't." She giggled. Tony nodded.
   "Well we have three songs to get ready in then." She nodded and they ran
to costume and prepared.

Standing waiting just out of sight, JC and the guys launched into Space
Cowboy and the other two prepared.

	Riprock, AG
	Come in, over
	Yo, turn it up
	I wanna be heard
	See, I'm talkin' about the future, y'all
	And the future looks bright
	'specially when we rip it in half

	Here it comes, millenium
	And everybodyt's talkin' 'bout Jerusalem
	Is this the beginning, or beginning of the end
	Well, I've got other thoughts my friend

	See I've got my eyes on the skies
	The heavenly bodies up high
	And if you're in the mood to take a ride
	Then strap on a suit and get inside

		Take a space ride with the cowboy, baby
		If you wanna fly, come and take a ride

	Tellin' us what's a sign, what's a sign
	'Cause paranoia ain't the way to live your life from day to day
	So leave your doubts and your fears behind

		Why-yi-yi-yippie-yi-yay-yippie-yi-yo-yippie-yi-yay
		Why-yi-yi-yippie-yi-yay-yippie-yi-yo-yippie-yi-yo

"STOP" Called Britney into her mic and silence hit the stadium. Nsync, the
band and the crowd. It all halted. Then both Britney and Tony bounced out
in full music mode and started to rap along.

	Boom and never let you try to stop me
	Born to fly sky high, up to the top see me
	Nothing to fear no doubts and no tears
	Millenium sound to motivate the future years
	And you can either be scare or get prepared
	To make these move and take flight like me
	To come through for the world prophecy
	Space connect to overthrow you interception
	Ready or not, make it hot
	There ain't no question
	Get Britney and put your head to the sky
	Keep the faith
	One love from Tone-eye

		If you wanna fly, come and take a ride
		Take a space ride with the cowboy, baby
		If you wanna fly, come and take a ride
		Take a space ride with the cowboy, baby
		Why-yi-yi-yippie-yi-yay-yippie-yi-yo-yippie-yi-yay
		Why-yi-yi-yippie-yi-yay-yippie-yi-yo-yippie-yi-yo

The guys for over their shock and looked straight at Tony and Britney in
dis-belief, Tony shrugged and bounced into his next set letting the others
get off stage. Soon the guys returned and Tony took his leave. As the guys
rocketed through their set Tony sat down in the couches in the green room
and calmed down from the hype of the concert. While he was, his cell phone
rang.
   "Hello?... hey Caleb... what's up...when?... I've got to finish this
show then I'll see what I can do... leave your cell on and I'll call you
back... I know Caleb... I know... Love you too Caleb... yeah bye." With
that Tony hung up and looked at the door as Britney walked in.
   "Tony, you're up on sta... what's wrong?"
   "Tell you after, we've got to get this show done." With that he hurried
out to the stage and went on and went through the remaining songs. The band
started on 'This I Promise You' and Tony fought not to cry. He started to
sing with JC joining him.

	When the visions around you
	Bring tears to your eyes
	And all that surrounds you
	Are secrets and lies

	I'll be your strength
	I'll give you hope
	Keeping your faith when it's gone
	The one you should call
	Was standing here all along

		And I will take you in my arms
		And hold you right here when you belong
		'Til the day my life is through
		This I promise you
		This I promise you

	I've loved you forever
	In lifetimes before
	And I promise you never
	Will you hurt anymore

	I give you my word
	I give you my heart
	This is a battle we've won
	And with this vow
	Forever has now begun

		Just close your eyes
		Each lovin' day
		And know this feeling won't go away
		'Til the day my life is through
		This I promise you
		This I promise you

	Over and over I fall
	When I hear you call
	Without you in my life, baby
	I just wouldn't be living at all

		And I will take you in my arms
		And hold you right here where you belong
		'Til the day my life is through
		This I promise you, baby

	Just close your eyes
	Each lovin' day
	And knwo that this feeling won't go away
	Every word I say is true
	This I promise you
	Every word I say is true
	This I promise you
	I promise you

As they finished, the crowd cheered and Tony stood first and waved then
went off stage as the guys did their curtain call they came back
stage. Britney walked in with JC and Justin to find Tony sitting with his
head in his hands, tears slipping down over his cheeks.
    "What's wrong Tone?" Asked JC.
    "I got a call from Caleb before Josh." As more tears fell JC arched his
eyebrows.
    "Caleb called me to tell me Sarah's died. She was killed in a car
crash." Tony told him dissolving into tears. JC stood rooted to the spot,
not knowing what to say. Justin slipped into a chair and shook his head in
disbelief. Britney looked at the three men and quietly asked.
   "Who was Sarah?" Tony's tears fell faster and he couldn't speak. JC
spoke up.
   "Sarah is the one who introduced me and Tony. She was one helluva
woman."
   "You mean the Sarah that was sorting out Tony and his shit when I went
and got him from his flat and hauled his ass back to tour?" Britney said
with recognition in her voice.
   "The one and only." Tony finally spoke up. Slowly she sank down beside
Tony and wrapped her arms around him.
   "I'm sorry Tone, she seemed really cool."
   "She was the best." Tony said feeling emotionally drained. Justin stood
up and left the room. Tony stood to go after him when JC stood.
   "You stay there, I'll go find him."
   "Josh, please stay." Tony asked desperately. JC looked at Tony. The
sound of desperation in Tony's voice came as a shock to him. It was the
first time since they had known each other that Tony had begged like
that. Britney looked at them then spoke,
   "I... er... I'll go look for Justin." Tony nodded as JC walked over to
him.  As Britney closed the door, JC put his hands on Tony's upper arms.
   "Tone?" Tony pulled himself into JC's arms and wept. They stood like
that for what felt to JC hours, but was only about five minutes. When Tony
finally settled and stopped crying that sat down on the couch.
   "I can't believe she's gone Josh, it feels like one of my arms or legs
has been torn from my body. Sarah and Caleb were basically family to
me. Now Sarah's gone, it feels like I'm missing something, a big part of me
has been stripped away. I can see and hear her voice, but she's not there,
she's not with it. She's gone. One of the most important people in my life
are gone." Tony said, his admittance broke not only his heart, but also
JC's.
   "You want to head back to Caleb in LA to be with him?"
   "There's no way I can't Josh. I've got to go to him." JC nodded
undestanding.
   "Well, let's get back to the hotel and get you packed and ready." JC
suggested standing and waiting as Tony finally found the strength.
   "Can you come with me Josh?" Tony asked looking into JC's eyes with a
pleading in them. JC shook his head.
   "I don't know Tone. I doubt it. I'll try, but I don't know." JC told
Tony quietly. Tony nodded and put his arm around Josh's waist and headed
for the door.

When they got back to the hotel and up into the room, Tony fell back onto
the bed and JC sat down next to him.
   "You want me to make the bookings and stuff?" He asked. Tony nodded.
   "If you don't mind hun." JC nodded and picked up the phone and began
dialling. Soon JC had worked out all the details and was about to speak to
Tony when there was a knock at the door. He sighed and went to answer
it. Justinw as standing there, his face tched with concern.
   "How's Tony doing?" He asked. JC sighed again and shook his head.
   "He's pretty scattered. He hasn't moved on the bed for the last half an
hour while I was on the phone. I think he's in shock of it all. I'm going
to have to take time off tour and go with him to the funeral and stuff.
What are we doing tomorrow?"
   "Not sure, I think we're just travelling. No shows until next week
sometime, rehearsals and in-stores though."
   "I'll just have to pass it. I need to be with him."
   "You can sort that one with the company, I'm not." Justin said.
   "Can you send Lance down, maybe he can help me." JC asked. Justin
nodded.
   "Okay, I'll do that now, take care of Tone for us JC. We all love him."
With that he wandered down the hall and knocked on Lance's door. Lance
opened the door and spoke to Justin then closed his door againk, only to
open it again and walk down to JC and Tony's room.  JC came out of the room
and Lance explained how he could take time off tour to go with Tony. JC
took it all in and nodded. When they had sorted it out, JC thanked Lance
and went into the room and called management and sent them to deal with the
record company. He then called the airline and booked his ticket and
started to pack. The entire time Tony didn't move on the bed. He lay there,
still and motionless, just staring at the ceiling.

A time later, Tony and JC left the hotel and climbed into a cab and drove
to the airport. Tony sat next to the window and just looked out as the
sights went past. So close next to him sat JC, though Tony felt as though
they were worlds apart. JC could feel the seperation between them widening
as he reached out his hand to take Tony's and Tony resisted for a
moment. Once they were on the plane, JC called Caleb to tell them when they
would be arriving. JC then settled back into the seat and looked at Tony
who was sitting next to them. He put his hand on Tony's arm.
   "Are you okay? Can I get you something?" He asked.
   "Yeah, get me to Sarah." Tony said, devoid of feeling, his face
expressionless. JC rubbed Tony's arm and sat back wondering what to do.
