Joint Affairs -- Chapter 25
by JT Poole

// Day 20 (Monday) -- Baltimore, MD -- The Hotel Restaurant //

"I called this quick meeting to let you know that some new acts will be
joining us off and on during the tour.  To start, Daniel Bedingfield will be
the first new act to join us on tour, then the guys of O-Town will be making
special appearance through out the tour in different cities."  Celia stated.
"Does anyone have any comments about this?"

"Yeah, when is Daniel going to be joining us?"  Lance asked, pulling out his
Palm Pilot.

"He will be joining us sometime in the week, the date isn't set yet, but it
will be during the week."  Celia stated.

"Are the guys of O-Town going to be doing songs with us, or just their own
stuff?"  Justin asked.

"They will do their own stuff unless you guys want to mingle with them."
Celia stated.

"Does this mean the concert times are going to be longer?"  Joey asked.

"Might be, but that hasn't been decided yet."  Celia stated.  "Anymore
questions before I dismiss all of you?"

"Anybody?"  Benjamin asked.

"Alright guys, you are all free to go."  Celia stated as most of the guys
got up to leave.  "Do you guys need anything?"

"Naw, we are just going to get something to eat before we call it a night."
Joey stated.

"Alright, night fellas."  Celia stated.

"Goodnight Celia."  Joey stated.  "Goodnight Benjamin."

"Night guys."  Benjamin stated as he walked by.

"Okay you two, tell us everything that happened."  David stated.

"Me and Nick were talking about what to do with the room situation and well
mom overheard everything."  Aaron stated with tears still in his eyes.
"Then when we admitted that we were gay, she got mad and then smacked Nick
for not telling her about me."

"I think it was a general slap because we didn't tell her, then she stormed
off."  Nick stated, rubbing the spot where his mother had slapped him.

"Oh baby I am so sorry.  Maybe we need to take this discussion up to our
room."  Joey stated.  "Aaron you and David come to our room."

"Okay Joey, we will be there soon."  David stated.

// 30 Minutes Later -- Justin and Kevin's Room //

"Baby what's going through your mind right now?"  Kevin asked as he sat down
on the bed besides Justin.

"Nothing baby.  I just zoned out a little bit."  Justin stated.

"You have been doing that a lot.  Is there something you want to talk
 about?"  Kevin asked.

"No now baby.  When I am ready, I will tell you about it."  Justin stated.

"Alright baby.  My ears are always open for you."  Kevin stated, kissing
Justin on the cheek.  "I am going to turn in, you coming?"

"I'll be in and a few minutes, I just need to clear my head."  Justin
stated.  "I love you Kev."

"I love you Justin."  Kevin stated as he turned and walked into the bedroom
to get into bed.

// - Brian and JC's Room //

"Wonder who that could be knocking at the door at this hour?"  Brian stated
as he got up to answer the door.

"I don't know baby, but send them away."  JC stated.

"Yes?  May I help you Wade?"  Brian asked.

"I was told that Josh was in this room.  I need to talk to him, it's
important."  Wade stated.

"What's wrong Wade, you look like you have been crying."  JC stated as he
came over to the door.

"Josh I need to talk to you in private, can we go somewhere?"  Wade asked.

"Sure.  Let's go for a walk."  JC stated as he grabbed his jacket.  "Brian
honey, I am going for a walk with Wade.  I will be back in a bit."

"Alright baby.  I'll be waiting."  Brian stated as JC and Wade left the
room.

"So what's wrong Wade, what's going on?"  JC asked.

"Josh, you gotta promise that whatever I tell you stays between the two of
us.  Do you promise?"  Wade asked.

"I promise.  Wade tell me what's wrong?"  JC asked.

"Okay, here goes."  Wade stated, taking a deep breath.  "Lance raped me
tonight."

"WHAT!!!!"  JC screamed.  "Lance did what?"

"Shhhhh...be quiet."  Wade stated.

"It sounded like you said Lance raped you."  JC stated.  "Is that what you
said?"

"Yes that's what I said."  Wade stated.

"I don't believe that.  Why would Lance rape you?"  JC asked.

"I don't know why.  He came to my room tonight and he was completely
different."  Wade stated as he started crying.

"Wade what are you trying to pull here?"  JC asked.  "If I remember
correctly, you and Lance don't have anything in common, and I did remember
Lance telling you not to come near him or he would cause you great pain.  I
don't believe Lance would go near you unless you were dying or something."

"It's true Josh.  Lance raped me tonight."  Wade stated.

"Why would he?  Lance isn't gay."  JC stated.

"I don't know if he's gay or what.  We have been hooking up for sex for the
last couple of weeks."  Wade stated.

"Yeah right."  JC stated.

"Why aren't you believing me Josh?  I am not good enough for Lance to fuck
me or something?" Wade asked snottily.  "You fucked me and you didn't have
any problems with me Josh!"

"Shhh...that was a long time ago Wade, but Lance isn't gay."  JC stated.

"Whatever Josh."  Wade stated.  "I came to you because I thought you would
help me, but I see I was wrong."

"Wait Wade, you have my full attention."  JC stated.  "What all did Lance do
and when?"

"Like you are going to believe me.  I am just going back to my room and wait
for the tour to be over."  Wade stated as he walked away from JC crying.

// Joey and Nick's Room //

"Well excuse me for suggesting the idea!"  Joey stated as he got up and
walked into bathroom and slammed the door.

"Joey I am sorry, I'm just upset."  Aaron stated as Nick got up and walked
to the door and knocked softly.


"Joey baby, please come out of there.  He's just upset."  Nick stated.

"I don't care.  He didn't have to talk to me that way."  Joey stated.

"I am sorry Joey."  Aaron stated as he walked over to the door followed by
David.

"Just leave me alone.  This is not my problem, I am not a part of your
family so I will keep my nose out of your affairs."  Joey stated, you could
hear him softly crying.

"Yes you are baby.  You are my boyfriend.  You are a part of my life and I
hope you feel like you are my family."  Nick stated as tears ran down his
face.

"We are going back to my room.  I think we have talked enough for tonight."
David stated, grabbing Aaron's hand and pulling him towards the door.
"Maybe we can get together for breakfast."

"Joey honey please come out, or let me in there with you.  Please."  Nick
stated still tapping on the door lightly.

"No Nick.  Just go talk with Aaron.  I will be alright, he's more important
to you than I am."  Joey stated, full out crying now.

"Oh Joey.  I don't want you hurt like this.  He didn't mean what he said.
He's upset about what mom did."  Nick stated.

"You are upset, but did you blame David for what happened?"  Joey stated.

"No I didn't blame him.  I see your point baby, but it's not your fault.  It
's my fault and Aaron's.  We should have told her before now.  If we would
have been more honest with each other, me and Aaron wouldn't have our little
problems."  Nick stated.

"He didn't have to blame me Nick.  It's not my fault that your mother found
out about you two.  He didn't have to say what he said.  That was just
 mean."  Joey stated.

"I know it was mean baby, but believe me, he didn't mean it.  He's just
upset, that's all."  Nick stated.  "Please baby, come out of there and talk
to me, let me see you."

"No.  I am not coming out."  Joey stated.

"Joey please."  Nick stated, "Let's not let this come between us."

"It's too late for that."  Joey stated as he continued to cry.

// Aaron and David's Room //

"You had no right to blame him baby, it wasn't his fault."  David stated.

"I know, I know.  I was angry."  Aaron stated.

"I am mad.  I blame him for how Nick has been neglecting me lately.  When
the opportunity arose, I snapped at him."  Aaron stated.

"Yes you did and you hurt Joey's feelings very badly."  David stated.  "You
need to apologize to him."

"I did."  Aaron stated.

"You need to apologize to him when there isn't so much already going on."
David spoke.

"I will baby, I will talk to him at breakfast."  Aaron stated as he and
David got into bed.
