Josh and Just 26


	Lance woke up to the sound of Jonathan creeping into the room. He
opened his eyes and found Jonathan staring him straight in the face with a
giant grin.
	"Hey Buddy. What are you doing up so early?" Lance asked groggily,
his deep voice barely audible.
	"Justin and JC were sleeping." The boy replied. Lance smiled and
sat up in bed. He threw back the covers and stood out of bed. He threw on
his robe and took Jonathan's hand. He walked Jonathan outside and walked
him to the top of the stairs.
	"Okay why don't you go downstairs carefully and go watch some
cartoons and I'll be down there in a sec okay?" Lance said as he saw Chris
walk out of a bedroom.
	"Okay." Jonathan said as she carefully walked down the stairs while
holding the railing.
	"Morning. I'm going to go check on JC and Justin cause it sounds
like they had one helluva day yesterday. I bet they are making out or
something already. It must suck having to hide your love life."  Lance
started.
	"Too early. Use short words." Chris mumbled.
	"Oh come on. Be happy." Lance said as she walked to Justin and JC's
door. He opened it to see Justin and JC facing each other while laying on
their sides. Justin had his chest pressed against JC's and his head resting
on the pillow. JC had his head resting half on Justin's head and half on
the pillow. There legs were tangled with each other while their arms were
tightened around each other.
	"Awww how cute." Chris cooed.
	"I thought you were tired." Lance said arching an eyebrow.
	"They're cute that I couldn't resist." Chris replied.
	"Yeah whatever." Lance replied.
	"Do you mind we're trying to sleep here. If you are going to spy on
us at least be quiet about it."  JC mumbled.
	"Oops sorry. Go back to being cute." Chris said as he walked out of
the room.
	"All they need is a baby and they'd be a family." Lance laughed as
he closed the door again.


	"Laura!!" Justin yelled up the stairs.
	"Yeah?" Laura yelled back.
	"The movie is about to start. And you're the only one that isn't
down here yet." Justin replied.
	"Okay I'm done. Sorry I had to fix my hair. . ." Laura began to
explain.
	"I don't wanna know just go sit down." Justin said following her
into the living room. Laura took a seat next to JC on the couch.
	"Uh. Uh. Uh. That's my seat." Justin replied.
	"Pleeeeeease?" Laura asked. She put on a cheesy smile as she begged
softly. Justin looked around and saw five other sets of teenage girl's eyes
on him. He looked back at Laura and then at JC.
	"Uhm no! Get up." Justin replied as he flashed an imitation of
Laura's cheesy grin. Justin kissed her on the head as she got up and then
sat down on the couch. JC gave him a smirk and then rolled his eyes.
	"Why did the guys have to leave us?" Justin asked.
	"Well Chris was meeting Sarah for like the twelve billionth
time. And then Lance and Marissa are taking Britney out to cheer her
up. Joey just didn't want to stay and Christina is basically sleeping at
her own house." JC concluded.
	"I'm still here." Tyler said as she walked into the room.
	"Oh joy." JC said sarcastically. Justin gave a small laugh before
turning back to everyone else. He found the same five sets of eyes on him.
	"What? Watch your movie. It's a good one. More interesting than my
conversation." Justin said pointing to the TV screen. All the girls giggled
before turning their attention to the screen. JC cast a small smile at
Justin before turning back to his brother.
	"Where's Jonathan?" JC asked.
	"Napping. In your room. He refuses to sleep anywhere else. He says
that's where his brothers sleep and that's where he should sleep." Tyler
restated.
	"He's so cute." JC replied. Justin smiled and looked back to see
the five girls looking at him and JC again.
	"What???? I'm not interesting I'm normal. I'm telling you the movie
is a riot. You should watch it." Justin explained.


	"Thank God They are gone. Now I get to do whatever I want and what
I want to do is make out with JC in the den." Justin said taking a hold of
JC's hand and dragging him out of the kitchen. JC stopped in his spot
causing Justin to continue walking in his place, tugging on JC's arm.
	"Just, baby, come on you know we have to go swimming now. Jonathan
has been waiting all day.  Why don't we take a little dip?" JC asked.
	"Because I want you right now!" Justin whined.
	"Okay I don't think I should be hearing this." Tyler said as he
heard the doorbell sound. He walked out of the kitchen leaving Justin and
JC alone.
	"You know that I love you right? And nothing will ever change that
but I am definitely not going to make out with you when there are so many
things that can make us stop. I want our time to be together and
interruption free." JC said placing his forehead against Justin's.
	"Hi you guys. How are you two doing?" Joey asked walking into the
kitchen with Tyler and Britney trailing behind.
	"Speaking of interruptions." JC said loudly. He placed a small kiss
on the end of Justin's nose before separating from Justin letting only
there hand's stay linked together.
	"Well I was just wondering if you guys wanted to come to our place
tonight. Everyone is going to be there for a little get together." Joey
said as she rummaged through the fridge.
	"We'd love t. . ." JC was cut off by Justin speaking up.
	"Actually we can't. I already made plans for us two. But Tyler will
go and so will Jonathan."  Justin claimed.
	"We will?" Tyler asked. Justin gave him a pleading look.
	"Oh yeah! We will." Tyler covered.
	"Okay well Jonathan and Tyler can come right now. because we have
some setting up to do."  Britney spoke.
	"Okay well tell Jonathan to take his swimming trunks and he can
swim at Joey's." JC told his brother.
	"What do I look like? Your babysitter?" Tyler asked.
	"Yes. Now get!" JC replied with a chuckle.
	"So you two get the house all to yourselves!" Joey said giving
Justin a little nudge.
	"Yup." Justin replied as his mind went to work.


	JC stopped his jeep as he pulled into the driveway of the house he
lived in with Justin. `Why did Justin ask me to go shopping now and at this
time. Look at it it's dark already. I thought he wanted this alone time for
us, not for me to go shopping for groceries. Why did I agree to go?' JC
thought. He flipped down his sun visor and saw the picture of Justin he had
clipped up. He smiled when he saw Justin's smile.  The way it curved and
accented the twinkle in his eye.
	"That's why." JC said with a smile. He put his sun visor back up
and took the keys out of the ignition. He lifted the bags out of the front
driver seat and climbed out of the car himself. He closed the door to the
car and made his way to the front door. He looked won at his keys and
struggled with his fingers to find the right key. He found it and opened
the door.
	"Justin! I'm home!" JC said as he closed the door behind him. He
turned toward the staircase and was shocked at what he saw. On every other
step and small lit candle was placed. Red rose petals made a pathway
leading upstairs. JC put down the paper grocery bags at the side of the
door and started to follow the rose petals. When he reached the top he
found small candles leading to the room he slept in with Justin.  He
followed the white candles to the door where he found a small not.
 	"Dear Josh. Stop reading this note and come in already." JC read
out loud. He smiled to himself before opening the door. He was in shock at
what he saw. The room was dimly lit making the mood instantly
romantic. Candles were placed on every table, stand, dresser, and
cabinet. The four post bed that he shared with Justin had it's net-like
curtains pulled closed. JC could see Justin's figure laying on the bed
waiting patiently. JC walked to the side of the bed and pulled back the
curtain to the bed. He looked inside and saw Justin smiling back at him in
a black silk robe.
	"Hey Sweety." Justin said rising from the bed to kneel in front of
JC who was standing next to the bed. Justin started to play with the collar
of JC's shirt every once in a while placing a small kiss at the base of
JC's neck. JC moaned with pleasure as Justin kissed him
ever-so-softly. Justin pulled the button-down shirt off of JC's shoulders
revealing a white wife-beater. Justin placed a small kiss at JC's collar
bone.  Justin wrapped both arms around JC's neck and gave him a passionate
kiss on the lips. JC couldn't help but to wrap his arms around Justin's
waist. Justin leaned back onto the bed allowing JC to lay down on top of
him. the two kissed each other continuously while Justin ran his hands over
JC's back lovingly. JC ran his fingers through Justin's hair while
furthering the kiss. Justin and JC began to slowly grind their bodies
together. Justin rolled over causing JC to lay on his back while Justin
straddled JC's hips. Justin leaned down and gave JC another kiss. His hands
went down to the sides of JC's wife-beater and instantly started to pull it
up. The two separated for a second allowing the article of clothing to be
shed. JC's hand led down to the strip of clothe that held Justin's robe
closed. His hands fumbled a bit with the knot before undoing the robe. He
let his hands travel around Justin's waist feeling that he had a pair of
black silk boxers on. The two once again rolled over with JC laying on top
of Justin. Justin tilted his head back when JC's started to kiss Justin's
neck lovingly. He let out a small moan. JC's hand stayed firmly at Justin's
abdomens letting his thumb brush over Justin's naval.  Justin allowed a
gasp to escape his lips. JC kissed the base of Justin's neck softly taking
in the scent of his lover.
	"I love you Justin." JC mumbled continuing on to kiss Justin's
shoulder. Justin pulled JC up so that their eyes were in front of each
other.
	"I love you Josh." Justin whispered before giving him a kiss. The
two rolled over so that Justin laid on JC. Justin sat up so he was
straddling JC again. His hands started to undo JC's belt. JC looked at
Justin with a small smile while Justin undid the button to his
jeans. Justin pulled the jeans down to JC's ankles and let out a sigh.
	"You couldn't have taken your shoes off?" Justin asked. Looking
back at JC.
	"Sorry did I ruin the moment?" JC asked timidly.
	"Hello no. We're not going out without a fight." Justin said as he
took a hold of JC's shoes and slid them off with one sweep. Justin yanked
off JC's jeans leaving his boyfriend in only socks and a pair of red
boxers.
	"Ooo red. Romantic." Justin said as she seductively started to
crawl with his hands and knees on either side of JC's body.
	"If you like them so much, you'll like the present they have for
you." JC whispered in Justin's ear, propping himself up with his
elbows. Justin pushed him back flat on the bed. Justin started to kiss JC
once again. the two laid together for what seemed like hours kissing one
another totally oblivious to the rest of the world.
	"JC?" Justin asked as he let out a small pant.
	"For what sweetheart?' JC asked as she kissed Justin once
again. Justin rolled his eyes and stopped JC. He placed both of his hands
on either side of JC's face and brought his head face to face with his own.
	"I'm ready." Justin said more slowly. JC looked at Justin with a
little confusion. Suddenly it hit JC. His eyes popped open in surprise.
	"Oh my god! I mean you are? are you sure? Are you okay with it?" JC
started asking.
	"Yes I am." Justin said reaching to the side of the bed to wear a
nightstand was. He pulled out an unopened condom and held it in front of
JC.
	"If you're sure then I guess I am too. I love you sweetheart but if
you don't want to do this at anytime then just tell me and I'll stop. Okay?
Promise you will tell me whenever you are uncomfortable."  JC said. Justin
just nodded.
	"Just?" JC asked. Justin's eyes connected with JC's
	"I promise." Justin replied. JC gave Justin another kiss. A longer
one which was more passionate than anything they had given each other that
night.
	"Well how do you want to do this?" JC asked. Before he even got to
finish Justin had slid down JC's body and took the waist band of JC's
boxers with his fingers. He lightly pushed down sliding his finger tips
across JC's manhood on the way. JC let out a small gasp and let his boxers
slide off his legs.  Justin slid his boxers off as well revealing his
semi-erect penis. Justin watch as JC applied the condom to his hardening
tool. He carefully made his way to JC's waist again. He straddled his abs
and looked down again.
	"Remember that I love you no matter what and at any time you feel
uncomfortable just tell me okay?" JC said leaning up and kissing the corner
of Justin's mouth. Justin kissed JC back before nodding.
	"Thank you." Justin replied kissing him softly. Justin raised his
body up and slowly brought the tip of JC's manhood to the entrance of his
body. Justin slowly started to move down. He not only had no fear but was
staring into JC's loving eyes the whole time. His thoughts quickly drifted
back to that night when he was raped and how that man made such a loving
experience so degrading and sleazy. All Justin felt at the moment was the
love he shared with JC. A small jolt of pain ran through his body as he
moved further down JC's shaft. JC stopped Justin in his spot and forced
Justin to look at his eyes.
	"Do you want to stop?" JC asked wiping away the single tear that
escaped Justin's eye with his thumb. Justin shook his head as he slowly
start to move himself down. He was about halfway down on JC's tool when JC
stopped him again.
	"Justin you're in pain. I don't want you to be. We'll stop." JC
said shaking his head.
	"No Whenever we choose to do this again I am going to be in
pain. And I want us to be together tonight." Justin replied. He looked down
at JC and waited for his approval. JC leaned up and gave Justin and small
kiss. Justin slowly began his motion down again. It wasn't long until he
felt himself resting fully on JC's pelvis. JC looked at Justin's face
lovingly. He let his hand cupped Justin's cheek and caressed it
gently. Justin leaned down and placed a small kiss on JC's lips. Justin
took a deep breathe before beginning his rise up JC's pole. Justin found
that soon his rise and decent weren't as painful as the first couple. After
a short period of time pleasure took over as the pain diminished. He heard
small moans rose from JC as he moved up and down more. It was natural. No
one told Justin what to do next. He kind of already knew. He started to
move faster. JC's hand moved to Justin's hardened member and held it firmly
as Justin moved up and down. Justin let out gasps of his own as he felt
pleasure roll through his body.  Justin and JC let out moans together every
once in awhile locking in a kiss together. It wasn't long until Justin and
JC felt themselves close. Justin let out a gasp which signified his seed
pouring onto JC's taut stomach. JC titled his head back and let out an
equal gasp as he filled the condom. Justin slid off JC and laid down next
to him. he rested his head on JC's slightly sweat glazed chest and heard
the sound of JC's heartbeat pounding. Justin reached down and carefully
took the condom off JC's softening penis. He pulled a couple of tissues out
of the box on the side and started to wipe off JC's chest and stomach. He
wrapped the condom in the tissues and slowly got up. He made his way to the
bathroom to throw it away. Justin walked out of the bathroom and stared at
JC's naked form as he laid on the bed. Justin laid down Next to JC and
looked at his face. Justin gave a look of disgust when he saw that JC had
fallen asleep.
	"I can't believe he fell asleep." Justin whispered to himself as he
turned his back to JC.
	"Who fell asleep." JC said. Justin looked back at JC who was now
laying on his side staring at Justin with a grin. JC looked at Justin's
face then at his back which was facing him. Justin rolled his eyes with a
smile. JC placed his arms around Justin's waist and pulled him against his
chest. JC placed his cheek next to Justin's as he held him close.
	"Ew your all sweaty." Justin said as she felt the moisture on his
back.
	"And who's fault was that?" JC snickered. Justin placed his arms on
JC's which circled waist.
	"I love you soo much." Justin whispered.
	"I love you more." JC replied. Justin turned his head and placed a
kiss on JC's cheek before turning it again so JC could place his cheek to
Justin's.
	"Are you in any pain?" JC asked worriedly.
	"No just pleasure." Justin replied letting his hands travel up and
down JC's arms.
	"Are you sure?" JC asked.
	"I'm fine now but tomorrow I'm going to have a hard time walking
tomorrow." Justin replied.
	"No you aren't. I'm carrying you everywhere." JC whispered into
Justin's ear before kissing it softly.
	"You're too sweet." Justin replied.
	"You're too beautiful." JC said lightly kissing the back of
Justin's neck. Justin smiled and gave a sigh of happiness. The two laid in
each other's arms as the night progressed.


	Justin opened his eyes and looked around wearily. He saw the
aftermath of the night before had been cleaned up. There was not a single
rose petal or candle in sight.
	"Was it a dream?" Justin asked himself groggily. He looked to his
side and saw that JC wasn't there. He shifted under the bed and felt a jolt
of pain run through him.
	"Definitely wasn't a dream." Justin said. Slowly adjusting himself
to a sitting position. `Wow I gave my virginity to JC.' Justin thought to
himself. He looked around and saw the neat room and smiled.  The door
slowly opened and in walked JC with a bed tray of food. He smiled and
walked over to the bed.  He placed the tray over Justin's lap and laid down
on his side next to Justin.
	"Good morning Sweetheart." JC said as he leaned in and gave Justin
a tender kiss.
	"Morning Baby." Justin replied, clearing his throat afterward. He
looked down at the tray and smiled.
	"What's this?' Justin asked.
	"Well those round flat things are called pancakes and that tall
cylinder full of that orange liquid is orange juice. And. . ." JC was
stopped by Justin hitting him in the shoulder.
	"I meant all this. The clean room, the breakfast, the cute
showered, clean boyfriend laying by my side." Justin asked.
	"Well I woke up early and decided to clean up so no one walks in
and sees burned out candles and flower petals everywhere and I thought I'd
make you breakfast in bed so you wouldn't have to walk down to the
kitchen." JC said taking Justin's hand in his own and kissing the top of
it.
	"You're too sweet. But I can't finish all this food by myself."
Justin said looking down at the freshly cut fruit, pancakes, eggs, sausage
and orange juice.
	"Oh you're not. I'm eating with you." JC said standing on the
bed. He almost hit his head on the ceiling but made it around so he was
standing behind Justin. He placed both legs on either side of Justin's body
as he sat behind him. Justin laughed and leaned back against JC while JC
propped himself up against the headboard. JC took a strawberry into his
hand and brought it to Justin's lips. Justin took a bite of the fruit and
looked down at the rest of food. JC ate the rest of the strawberry and
rested his chin on Justin's shoulder.
	"And after this I'm carrying you into the bathroom for a bath." JC
said as he kissed Justin's bare shoulder.
	"Awww JC you don't have to do that." Justin said as he turned in
his spot to lok at JC. He winced in pain as a botl of pain shot through his
lower body area.
	"That's what I thought. I'm carrying you." JC said wrapping both
arms around Justin's waist. And hugging him tight. He let one hand go to
the try and take the glass of orange juice. JC took a sip and offered it to
Justin.
	"Freshly squeezed." JC said. Justin smiled and took the orange
juice. The two continued to eat their breakfast together, chatting about
everything.


	"Oh my Alex! It was soo romantic. This morning he brought me
breakfast in bed and he cleaned up and he carries me everywhere because he
doesn't want me to walk in pain." Justin cooed as he spoke into the
phone. He was laying on the couch with his feet raised on the arm rest. Leo
napped on his chest while Justin absent mindedly ran his fingers through
the short fur of the dog.
	"Wow that's so romantic. But I just called to see if Britney was
there." Alex joked.
	"Shut up!" Justin laughed. As he finished the door opened and in
walked in Britney, Tyler, and Chris.
	"Speak of the devil. I'll talk to you later okay?" Justin said
before hanging up.
	"Hey you guys. Where's Jonathan?" Justin asked.
	"We dropped him off. We were gonna say hi to your mom but she just
got this call from Tennessee so we just dropped off Jonathan." Chris said
walking in and collapsing onto the couch. Justin sat up with very little
pain running through him. The cell phone began to chime through the
house. Britney took out her phone and hit the talk button.
	"Hello?" Britney asked as she laid down with her head in Justin's
lap.
	"Sure use me as a pillow." Justin laughed.
	"What do you want?" Britney asked bitterly. Justin looked at her
with confusion.
	"No I don't want to talk to you. Leave me alone. Go visit your dear
sweet Sarah Michelle she'll keep you company you asshole." Britney said
before clicking her phone shut.
	"Freddie?" Justin asked.
	"Yup!" Britney said as she dropped the phone into her purse.
	"It's okay you are gonna do so much better than him. He's just some
stupid actor. Us music stars have to stay together." Justin said. Britney
smiled at him before closing her eyes. Another phone rang through the
house. This time it was the house phone.
	"I got it!" JC yelled from the kitchen.
	"Okay Sweety!" Justin yelled back.
	"Why do you have that ridiculous smile on your face?" Britney asked
with a smirk. She examined him closely.
	"You had sex!" Britney gaped in shock.
	"How did you know that?" Justin asked in surprise.
	"It's a girl thing." Britney smiled. She sat up and placed her legs
on the coffee table.
	"You're the first girl I have ever known that has been able to do
that." Chris laughed.
	"Okay, it's a Britney thing." Britney smiled.
	"Oh my brother is having sex. Not something I want to hear about."
Tyler said as he scooped Ozzie into his lap.
	"Yeah, well, he was really good." Justin said causing a groan from
Britney, Tyler, and Chris. JC walked into the room with a somber look on
his face.
	"Just. Sweetheart that was your mom on the phone. I have some bad
news." JC said as he crouched in front of Justin.  He took Justin's hands
within his and looked deeply into his eyes.
	"Sweety your Aunt Kate passed away last night." JC said
softly. Justin's expression changed to a sullen look as the tears welled up
in his eyes. Justin instantly began to stand. JC stood with him and held
his hands tightly. Justin turned away to walk before turning back and
burying his face in JC's shoulder. His tears spilled out as JC's wrapped
him in a loving embrace.


	"Yes that's correct two tickets to Memphis. We'd like them on the
next available flight out." JC spoke into the phone. He looked over at
Justin who was packing his bag with a blank face.
	"Okay thank you. We'll pick them up at the gate." JC responded into
the phone.
	"Thank you. Bye." JC said, hanging up the phone.
	"Just? Baby are you sure you want me to come?" JC asked as he took
a step in front of Justin.  Justin looked down at the floor sadly. JC took
his finger and gently lifted Justin's chin so that they were looking into
each other's eyes.
	"You're sure right? If you don't want me to I can stay here but if
you do then just tell me and I'll be there right by your side through
everything." JC replied.
	"I want you to come." Justin voiced. His voice so soft and sad.
	"Okay Sweety. Why don't you take a little nap and I'll finish
packing and I'll make us something small to eat before we head to the
airport okay?" JC asked. Justin nodded hugged JC quickly before walking to
the bed. He took a hold of the Sleepy doll on the bed and held it while he
slept. JC pulled a blanket over him before going through their closets. He
pulled out his black suit as well as a black button down shirt and a dark
gray tie. He placed it next to Justin's black outfit. And went back to the
closet to get their coats. JC placed them down by the rest of the pile of
clothes and walked out of the room. He walked down the hall to the hallway
bathroom and looked through some drawers.
	"Josh?" Tyler asked as he poked his head in.
	"Yeah?" JC replied looking up from the drawer for a brief second.
	"So what's the deal? What happened?" Tyler asked.
	"Well Justin's aunt, Lynn's sister, died yesterday after being hit
by a car. So we're going to head down there for the funeral and also help
her daughter pack up. I think she is going to move to Lynn's house but I'm
not sure. Lynn already took an earlier flight there and she'll meet us
there. I think we're staying at Randall's house but I'm not sure. I'll call
you to tell you where we are, in case you need to get us. " JC replied.
	"But do you think it's wise that you're going with him. I know
right now you two are not going to be able to act straight. You'll be found
out." Tyler said worriedly.
	"Tyler I'm going. If Justin says he wants me there then I'm going
to be there for him. I really don't give a damn about who sees us. I'm only
worried about Justin." JC said as she slammed the drawer closed.
	"Hey why are you biting off my head for it. I was just worried that
you two are going to be caught.  Excuse me for caring about my brother and
my friend." Tyler replied. Tyler started to walk out.
	"Ty. Wait! I'm sorry. It's just things are getting a little
tense. I didn't mean it like that. I'm sorry."  JC apologized.
	"Yeah okay." Tyler replied as he looked at his brother.
	"Do you mind doing me a favor?" JC asked
	"Yeah sure." Tyler responded.
	"Do you think you can watch the house while we're gone. And take
care of the dogs?" JC asked.
	"Yeah sure. Just you two be careful and make sure Justin is
okay. Cause if he isn't I'm going to kick your ass and you know I can."
Tyler replied.
	"I will. Thanks Ty." JC said as he pulled his brother into a hug.


	Justin stepped off the plane with an emotionless look on his
face. He buttoned up JC's leather jacket which was a size too big for
him. His hair was covered with a white bandana while his thin wire framed
glassed stayed at the bridge of his nose. His un-tucked T-shirt could be
seen from under the sweatshirt he was wearing on top. His sweats were a bit
baggy but stayed on his hip tightly. JC followed behind carrying there
carry-on luggage. His nylon basketball pants swished as the sweatshirt on
his shoulders was two sizes too large. Justin looked around the gate as he
stood closely at JC's side. He quickly spotted his father and step mother
carrying Jonathan.
	"Randall! Lisa! Over here." JC said as he waved. Randall walked
over and brought Justin into a hug. Justin started to tear up as soon as
his father's arms enveloped around him. JC watched as his boyfriend cried
on his father's shoulder.
	"Hi Lisa." JC said giving her a kiss on the cheek. He took Jonathan
from her and held him in his arms.
	"Hey Buddy." JC said looking at him.
	"Hello." Jonathan said tiredly. JC held him as the boy rested his
head on JC's shoulder. JC looked back at Justin who was now ending his hug
with his father. Justin took off his glasses and wiped his eyes quickly
before putting his glasses back on.
	"How is Mom?" Justin asked.
	"She is fine. She's at your Aunt Kate's house getting stuff ready
for tomorrow with Paul." Randall said.
	"And Kelly?" Justin asked.
	"She's pretty strong. She's at our house right now. I'm going to
drop Lisa off with your mother and I'll take you back to the house where
you can talk to Kelly." Randall explained as he cupped his son's face in
his hand. Justin nodded before taking JC's hand in his conspicuously and
gave it a little squeeze.


	"You know JC why don't you go with Lisa. I think Lynn has a lot of
stuff she needs to do and she shouldn't be doing it all. She needs some
rest." Randall said as she stopped the car in front of a house.
	"Okay. Sure thing." JC said, as he unbuckled his seat belt.
	"Are you gonna be okay Sweetheart?" JC asked. taking Justin's hand
in his own.
	"Yeah. I'll see you back at the house." Justin said nodding =, JC
gave him a small kiss before getting out of the car. Justin got out and
satin the front seat.
	"Dad? Where is Kelly moving to?" Justin asked as he adjusted the
leather jacket that covered him.
	"Well they say that she might move to Florida. It was her last year
of high school so she might go to a college down there. She could live with
your mother or at least call that a home place for awhile before going to
college." Randall explained as he drove for a bit.
	"How is she doing? I mean has she secluded herself or anything?"
Justin asked.
	"No she's just really sad and she basically stayed in your room all
day." Randall replied. It wasn't long until they arrived to Justin's
childhood home before his parents divorce. Justin stepped out of the car
and pulled Jonathan into his arms. He grabbed a couple of his bags while
his father got the rest of them.
	"Justin. Why don't you take you're room and JC can take the spare."
Randall suggested.
	"Dad, it's fine if we sleep in the same bed. We do it every
night. And plus I'll be better off with him next to me." Justin said with a
sigh.
	"Well uhm okay." Randall agreed. Justin climbed up the stairs and
walked into his old room. He placed his suitcases down and looked at the
bed where his cousin, Kelly, laid napping with her eyes red and
puffy. Justin made his way to the edge of the bed and took a seat. He ran
his hand across the side of Kelly's face softly. Kelly stirred a bit before
opening her eyes. Kelly looked up at Justin with shock.
	"Justin! You're here!" Kelly said as she sprang up and gave Justin
a big hug.
	"Hey Kelly. How are you feeling?" Justin asked as she held her
closely.
	"Terrible. It's so hard Justin. I wish that my life was over and
not my Mom's. Why did she have to go?" Kelly asked as she started to sob.
	"Shhhhh. Kell it's okay. She's somewhere no one can hurt her and
she's watching over you right now and basically scowling that you're crying
so much. You know how she always hated it when we cried.  Remember what she
always said?" Justin asked with a small laugh.
	"That if we cried as adults we'd be making all the babies jealous
because they won't be getting any attention." Kelly responded along with
Justin. The two broke a small laugh.


	"So how is everything going?" Kelly asked as she laid on her side
on Justin's bed, watching him un-pack.
	"Everything is good." Justin replied as she took a small picture
frame and a Sleepy Doll out of his suitcase and placed them on his desk.
	"Awww Cute toy! And who's the guy with you in the picture?" Kelly
asked as she reached for it.  Justin handed them to her.
	"The guy is my boyfriend and Sleepy is his." Justin replied as he
continued to un-pack. He avoided facing Kelly cause he didn't want to deal
with the shocked look.
	"Cute huh?" Justin asked.
	"Yeah he is." Kelly replied handing him Sleepy and the frame again.
	"What's his name?" Kelly asked.
	"JC. You've met him before. He's part of the group. God Kell I know
you don't listen to our music but still you should at least know some stuff
about my group." Justin joked.
	"Sor-ry." Kelly replied.
	"Well don't be. You'll meet him in like an hour hopefully." Justin
replied as he hung up his suit in the closet. He hung up JC's suit right
next to his. Justin started to unpack JC's bag.
	"Can't wait." Kelly replied as she let out a small yawn.
	"You know why don't you get some sleep? You've probably been up
since last night." Justin said as he took off JC's leather jacket.
	"Okay." Kelly agreed as she climbed under the covers. Justin tucked
her in before continuing to unpack.


	Justin lay sleeping in the spare room snuggled up with the Sleepy
Doll in his arms with JC's leather jacket around his upper body. He had
waited around for JC to arrive but soon fell asleep from all the weariness.
	"Just? Baby?" Justin heard as his mind floated back to reality. He
slowly opened his eyes noticing first the change in light of the room. It
was now dark and stars were shining outside. His eyes soon drifted to JC
who was staring back at him lovingly.
	"Hey Cutie. You've been asleep for a couple of hours now and I was
wondering if you want to grab a bite to eat." JC whispered as he placed his
forehead against Justin's. their noses brushed against each other as they
stared at each other.
	"Okay." Justin replied softly. JC sat back on the bed and waited
for Justin to sit up. Justin slowly sat up and looked around. He took the
glasses off the nightstand and placed them on.
	"Have you eaten yet?' Justin asked.
	"No I was waiting for you." JC replied.
	"I'm sorry Josh." Justin replied.
	"For what? Don't be sorry." JC replied as he placed a small kiss on
Justin's forehead.
	"No I'm sorry I brought you here. You shouldn't have to be going
through all this." Justin said with tears building up in his eyes.
	"Justin. Sweetheart. I love you with all my heart and I sure as
hell am not going to let you go through this alone. Sorry Mr. Timberlake
you are stuck with me." JC replied as he took Justin's hands in his
own. Justin gave a small smile and nodded.
	"Now get up we have to eat or I'm gonna die." JC smiled.


	Britney walked up the walkway to Justin and JC's house. She walked
to the doorstep where she knocked slightly. She heard the yapping of Leo
and Ozzie come closer to the door. Lance opened the door and stood back for
her to enter.
	"Hey Brit. What's up?" Lance asked as he closed the door behind
her.
	"Freddie is scum." Britney smiled before walking into the
kitchen. Lance gave a small laugh before following her into the kitchen.
	"Hey Britney." Tyler said as he kissed her on cheek.
	"Hey you." Britney replied as she walked to the freezer she pulled
it open and brought out a large carton of ice cream. She walked to the
drawer and pulled out a spoon. She tiredly collapsed onto a stool and
opened the carton.
	"Well I'm going to take a shower." Tyler said as he left the
room. Lance watched with amusement as Britney indulged herself in the ice
cream slowly.
	"That bad?" Lance asked.
	"He was soooo cute and so nice." Britney replied.
	"To tell you the truth Brit, I hated him. Why do you think I stayed
clear of him during the Snowed In thing when we were in California?" Lance
asked.
	"Because Danielle was there." Britney replied.
	"Well that too." Lance laughed. Lance walked around the counter and
took a seat next to her.
	"You know you are going to find someone else. Who wouldn't resist a
beautiful girl like you?"  Lance asked.
	"I don't need anyone else. Just me and my Fudge Mocha
Sorbet. That's the only man I need." Brit said taking another bite of ice
cream.
	"Oh come on Brit. You're going to find someone ten times greater
than Freddie I just know it."  Lance said wrapping an arm around Britney's
shoulder for comfort. Britney turned to look Lance in the eyes with a small
smile. Lance connected eyes with her. The two stared at each other before
slowly leaning toward each other. Lance brushed his lips across Britney's
slowly before kissing her more fully. The two kissed each other
passionately before separating with a small smile.
