Justin was the only on in the hair and make up room. He sat there
having his hair and make up done, while Kate was busy talking his head off
and working on him at the same time.
"Furthermore, I just don't understand some of the nonsense
anyway. Now, I am dying to know: how's everything with your love life
sweetheart," she asked as she put his blush on.
Justin smiled loosely and answered her question as best he could
with a sponge dabbing his face. "Don't ask Kate. Just don't even ask right
now." When she pressed a little too hard he grimaced slightly.
"Are you OK hun? When did you get this beauty?" Kate had slight
concern in her voice. Justin looked straight ahead in the mirror and
watched her magically make the previous evening's events disappear. "Like I
said Kate, don't ask, just don't ask."
Kate laughed and finished up his makeup. "Well whatever it is,
don't let it get you down. You're plenty young and quite handsome.
Everything will be OK, and if you stop by before you leave, I will give you
this lotion so it doesn't hurt the rest of the day." She smiled warmly and
fixed one of his curls. "You're done hun."
"Thanks Kate," he said smiling back at her. "Well I guess I'm
going over to wardrobe." He headed out of the room and into another one,
that had his name on it. There were long racks of clothes and he quickly
undressed. He stood in his boxers and began sorting through a pile of
clothes that were on the couch in the room. As he was looking, Joey crept
quietly into the room and closed the door silently. He removed his own
clothes and stood behind Justin. He wrapped his arms around Justin's
waist. Justin jumped at first and let out a small scream. He quickly
realized who was hugging him and simply stood there enjoying the embrace.
"Hi Joey," Justin said with a smile.
"Hi baby," Joey said with love in his voice. His hand slowly
slipped to the front of Justin's boxers and then under the elastic. He
grasped Justin's member firmly in his hand. "Hello to you too," he said
with a smile. He held Justin around the waist with one arm and slowly
began to jerk him off with the other. Justin leaned his head back on
Joey's shoulder and breathed heavily. After a minute, Joey pushed the
clothes off the couch and lowered Justin down onto the couch. He pulled
down his boxers and held Justin's erect cock in his hand. He smiled down
at Justin as he gently continued his stroking. Soon, he lowered his mouth
down and slowly licked from base to tip, causing Justin to shiver. He then
took his entire length into his mouth and licked around it. He kept one
hand at the base and jerked him off as he gently sucked the top. Justin
moaned continuously. After a few minutes, Justin threw his head back and
shot his load into Joey's mouth. Joey continued to lick around the head
and down the base, which made Justin laugh loudly. Finally, Joey stopped
and pulled Justin's boxers back up.
"I'm really sorry about before," he said, giving Justin his puppy
dog eyes.
Justin smiled, still feeling a little weak from sex.
"It's OK Joey. Can we just forget about it, please? I'd rather
not have to think about it anymore, and I would much rather concentrate on
the here and now." Joey smiled and pulled Justin towards him.
"Of course we can. I'll never mention it again, if you promise me
something," he said as he gently kissed Justin's cheek.
"What is it?"
"Justin, I never want you to change. You won't will you?""
"I will always love you and I will never change. I guess we should
get dressed now, huh?"
Justin giggled, kissed Joey on the lips lightly and stood up
slowly. He walked over to the pile of clothes and grabbed a pair of khaki
pants and a blue silk shirt. "I'll see you in the photo shoot," Justin
said as he ran out the door. He walked down the large row of dressing
rooms, pausing momentarily at Nick's. He smiled to himself, then shook his
head and continued. As he approached the set-up for the shoot, he was
surprised to see Nick already posing for the camera.
"Wow," he said under his breath. Nick was dressed in a pair of
white pants and a very tight white T-shirt. He flirted with the camera and
the lights behind him glimmered. As he turned to give a profile shot, he
saw Justin watching him and smiled widely. Justin slipped to behind where
the photographer was and Nick resumed his flirting. Justin laughed as Nick
alternately pouted and growled at the camera. Finally the photographer
stopped shooting.
"That was a great job Nick," Peter said as he put his camera down.
"You're done for now." He turned around and spotted Justin. "Well, looks
like we can get you over with too! Hop up there."
Justin hopped onto the platform as Nick stepped down. "What do you
want me to do," he asked shyly.
"Anything you want," Peter said with a smile. "When I see
something I like, I take a picture." He started to play a little music.
Justin laughed and began to pose for the camera. He put his hands in his
pockets and put his head down. He moved around as Peter took a couple of
shots. "OK, that's fine, but flirt a little. Here, Nick, come here,"
Peter said with a laugh. "OK Justin, I want you to act. Pretend Nick is
the hottest thing you've ever seen. Which for anyone is a tough thing to
do," Peter laughed uncontrollably at his joke as Nick looked at him and
sarcastically made faces. Peter looked back to Justin and continued, "Just
look at Nick and I dunno... flirt," Peter said laughing.
Justin giggled and smiled widely. Peter snapped a few pictures.
He gave Nick every sexy look he could. He ran his hand down his chest and
stomach and stopped at the top of his pants. Nick watched all this with a
smile on his face and was getting quite a hard-on as he watched Justin
pose. Nick sat down on a chair behind Peter and was in the shadows. He
adjusted his now rock hard member so it didn't show in his pants, that
much.
Justin kept the posing up and Peter took more and more
pictures. Peter finally stopped shooting and told Justin he was free to
go. Justin stepped off the platform and still had his smile on his face.
"So, was that sexy enough?" Justin was trying to talk to Nick.
"Yeah it was perfect, I got great shots!" Peter answered back
without looking over at Justin.
"Oh, sorry I was talking to--"
"Yes, it was the best." Joey was standing in the doorway with his
photo outfit on. It was the same thing he had worn at the Blockbuster Music
Awards when they sang 'Sailing'. The photographer's intern was wheeling a
fan over near the platform.
"I liked the show very much." Joey said smoothly as he hugged
Justin.
"OK Joey, show time!" Peter yelled as he dug in his bag.
"I'll see you later hun." Joey kissed Justin on the cheek and he
jumped on the platform. Justin turned around looking for Nick, but he was
no where in sight. Justin sighed. He watched Joey pose for the camera for
a bit, but soon was eager to get out of the clothes he was wearing and into
something more comfortable. He walked down the row of dressing rooms and
stopped when he saw his. Down on the floor was a baby blue rose and a
note. Justin bent down, picking up the rose and note. He brought the rose
to his nose and let the delicate petals touch the tip as he inhaled deeply.
He opened the note and read.
Justin- You looked so sexy at the photo shoot. I can't wait to see the
results. Do you think I can get some copies? Anonymous
Justin smiled and looked around. 'I can't find Nick anywhere, so
... this has to be from Joey, doesn't it,' he thought to himself. He
inhaled deeply and twirled the rose around in his fingers. He entered the
dressing room with a picture of joy painted across his face. "He does love
me," he said out loud to himself. He sighed and shut the door behind him.
*******
AJ, Chris and Howie jumped around in the lobby trying to keep the
hackey-sac from hitting the ground. AJ swore under his breath as he missed
it yet again.
"God AJ, you really suck at this don't you," Chris said with a
laugh. AJ laughed sarcastically and threw the hackey-sac at him. "You
know who's really good at it? Lance is." Chris threw his eyes over to
Lance who was sitting alone in a corner, a bit dejected.
"Is he always this quiet," AJ whispered as he walked over to Chris.
Chris shrugged. "Not at all. He's usually all over the place.
But recently he's been kind of...I dunno, distant or something. I don't
know what's up with him anymore."
"Have you tried talking to him," Howie asked matter-of-factly.
"Yes idiot, of course I did. He won't tell me anything."
AJ smiled devilishly. "Well, let ol' AJ give it a try." He walked
over to where Lance was sitting and plopped down on the floor in front of
him. "So, what's up?" Lance merely looked down and smiled weakly. "Oh
no. You're not getting out of this so easily. Come on, you've bearly said
two words to me since I got here!"
"I'm just a bit out of it recently," Lance said sadly. "I haven't
felt up to doing much."
"What is it," AJ asked as he leaned in a little more. "Are you
homesick?"
Lance laughed at the thought. "Homesick is probably the last thing
that I am right now."
"Well then come on! Tell me! Maybe I can help. I'm a regular
boyscout," AJ said as he saluted jokingly. Lance laughed some more. He
glanced over and saw Chris and Howie approaching.
"Wow, he's smiling," Chris said with a laugh.
"AJ has that effect on people. He's kind of funny to look at, you
know," Howie added with a laugh.
"Actually gentlemen, Lance just agreed to have dinner with us
tonight," AJ said, keeping his eyes on Lance.
"I did," Lance asked suddenly as he looked around.
"Yep. We're going right after the photo shoot is over," AJ said.
Chris and Howie looked at Lance hopefully.
"Well, I guess it wouldn't hurt any," he said with a smile. Chris
let out a whoop and tossed the hackey-sack into Lance's lap.
"Let's go Scoop. Show us what you're made of."
********
Everyone had finished at the photo shoot and they all walked back
to their waiting cars. 3 cars were waiting for them.
"I heard you wanted to spend the evening in different ways, so I
brought all 3 along," the driver mumbled out while taking a drag on a
cigarette that was permanently attached to his lower lip it seemed.
"Yeah, that's kewl." Kevin said.
"Well, AJ, I, Chris and Lance are heading to dinner, so we got one
car." Howie said while sliding into one of the cars.
"And I want to go hit 2 stores here in town, so I am going to take
the small car." Kevin said as he walked to the car. "That sounds good, I
think I will join you for a little shopping." J.C. commented at he quickly
followed. "After that I'll head back to the hotel." Kevin yelled back at
the group as the door closed and the car sped off with the two of them
starting to talk.
"OK, well, I was hoping to spend sometime with you tonight at the
hotel. Does that sound good?" Joey looked into Justin's eyes and smiled
warmly. In Justin's bag was his flower.
"Of course," he giggled back.
Nick looked upset and agreed he needed to sleep. Brian sighed lowly
and the spoke up. "Staying in tonight will be fun. After all, who knows
what will happen and we don't get this chance everyday." Brian slid into
the car and the rest followed.
******
"God that feels good," Joey moaned as Justin sucked lightly on his
earlobe.
The water in the shower cascaded over their naked bodies, which were now
intertwined. Joey wrapped his arm around Justin's waste and kept the other
one on the wall. Justin hands slid lightly up and down Joey's soapy back.
Joey leaned against the wall heavily and took Justin's cock in his hand and
gently began to pull on it. Justin moaned loudly as Joey continued to jerk
him off. Joey then gently turned him around and pressed against him.
Justin rested his head on Joey's shoulder and leaned into him as Joey
pulled slowly on his cock.
"Could I make love to you," Joey asked sincerely. Justin felt
himself melt in Joey's arms.
"I would like that a lot," Justin whispered.
Joey grinned widely and took the soap in his hand. He got up a
good lather and rubbed it onto his erect cock. He began to slowly rub his
hands up and down Justin's chest. He then wrapped on arm around Justin's
waste as he pushed into him. Justin gasped and his eyes flew open.
"Sorry," Joey whispered. "I'll be more gentle." Justin smiled
weakly and breathed heavily as he waited for the initial pain to subside.
Soon he had adjusted to having Joey inside of him. He sighed loudly as
Joey began to slowly withdraw and then push back in. Joey moaned loudly
into Justin's ear as he worked up a fast pace. Justin was breathing as
heavily as Joey. Joey began to rub his hand up and down Justin's chest,
leaving one arm wrapped around his waist. He began pushing in with more
force and breathing heavier. "I'm close," he whispered into Justin's ear.
The phone rang. They both ignored it at first. It rang again, this
time it seemed louder but they both knew it had no volume control.
"Ignore it," Justin whispered as he heard the loud ring over the
rush of the water.
Joey continued with his thrusting, the ringing stopped. Their
lovemaking continued on, both of them were feeling complete joy. It rang
again. Justin thought if the person was this persistent, it must be
important. "Just get it and hurry back," Justin moaned out. Joey considered
it for a moment. Then he slowly began to withdraw from Justin. "You
right, it may be important." Joey washed off quickly and jumped out of the
shower, leaving Justin where he was standing under the water. Joey grabbed
a towel, threw it around his waste and walked over to the phone.
Justin leaned against the shower wall and sighed heavily. He could
hear Joey's conversation slightly and he knew the shower was over. He shut
off the water and noticed his rock hard cock was already flaccid. He got
out of the shower and closed the door to the bathroom. He grabbed the
largest towel he could find, wrapping it around his shoulder. He tried the
best he could to keep warm as he dried off. The bathroom door flew open as
he pulled up his boxer shorts.
"I'm sorry honey," Joey said as he hugged Justin's back.
Justin didn't return the hug, but he didn't try to pull away
either. "It was a phone call, these things must happen," Justin sighed
"... and they always do when we don't want them to. It's alright Joey."
"No it isn't. And I really am sorry." Joey kissed the back of his
neck and hugged him tighter and began to rub lower and lower.
"Who was on the phone," Justin asked, trying to get Joey to
stop. Joey got the signal and let go of Justin.
"It was my brother," Joey said as he took off his towel. He began
drying off. "He has a four hour layover at the airport and he wanted to
know if I wanted to spend some time with him."
"Oh, OK. Just let me get dressed real quick and we can go," Justin
said with a smile and started to forget about the interruption.
"No, it's OK. I think I'm just gonna go by myself, if that is OK
with you," Joey replied, not looking at Justin once.
"You don't want me to go, do you," Justin said, pouting a little.
Joey grabbed Justin's hand as the other was keeping Justin upright
as he leaned on the sink. "There's no need for you to. Besides, you can
rest up here for tonight and I haven't seen him in a really long time. I'd
rather spend some time with him myself, and then return to you." Joey
finally looked up and saw Justin frowning. "I'm sorry baby." He had hoped
his truly sincere words had helped. He leaned forward and gave him a kiss
on the lips. "I will be back early and we have the rest of the night to ah,
you know, I mean, I have no where to be later. Do you?" Joey tried to
hint. Justin did not return the kiss and didn't laugh at Joey's joke.
"I'll say it again Joey," Justin said, turning his head away.
"It's alright."
Joey sighed and walked back out into the room. He pulled on a pair
of pants and an oversized sweatshirt. He grabbed his hat and headed
towards the door. He looked to see if Justin was out of the bathroom yet,
because he wanted to give him one more quick kiss goodbye, he didn't see
him, he sighed softly, grabbed his sunglasses and opened the door. "I'm
sorry, baby, I'll make it up to you," he called again as the door shut
behind him.
Justin stood in the bathroom in his boxer shorts, examining himself
in the mirror. "Maybe I'm just not attractive to him anymore," he said
aloud to himself sadly. He examined his face in the mirror, and fixated on
the red mark that had return after the shower. He looked down his chest
and arms. "Am I getting fat? Am I too thin? What is it?" His jokes
didn't cheer himself up. He sighed and continued to stare. "What's wrong
with me?" He turned away from the mirror and walked out into the hotel
room. He pulled on a pair of jeans and a white wife-beater with a baby
blue baseball jersey over it. He walked back into the bathroom and fixed
his hair. He heard his stomach growling and laughed. "Guess I'm hungry,"
he said with a laugh. He didn't want to eat alone and his friends were all
out. His mind wandered to the flower he received earlier in the
evening. His mind went from Nick to Joey, and back to Nick. "Maybe Nick
hasn't eaten yet," he thought with a small smile. He grabbed his wallet
and key and headed out into the hall.
*******
Nick was lying back on his bed. He was dressed only in his
boxer-briefs and he had a can of Pepsi by the side of his bed. He heard a
knock on the door and hopped up. Then he paused and looked down at what he
was wearing. "Eh, it's probably only Brian," he said with a laugh. He
walked over to the door and opened it. He then saw who is was and smiled.
"Um, hi Nick," Justin said, a bit surprised.
"JUSTIN!" Nick yelled suddenly, then composing himself he
continued. "Um, hi!"
Justin laughed a bit at Nick's discomfort. "I was just wondering
if you'd eaten yet," he said with a smile and looked at the floor.
"Actually I haven't. You wanna grab something?" Nick asked
hopefully. At the same time he was looking down the hall for signs of
Joey.
"That was my original plan, but if you have a different one,"
Justin laughed. "Joey had to run off for a while, so I'm all alone and,
um, I don't like being alone."
"Cool!" Nick yelled eagerly. Then he realized his mistake. "I
mean dinner sounds great. Let's go then," Nick said as he stepped into the
hall.
Justin began to laugh uncontrollably. Nick looked at him with a
frown. "What's the matter?"
"Well, I mean, I'm beginning to feel a little over-dressed here.
Should I take my clothes off too," Justin asked with a laugh as he started
to unbutton his jersey.
Nick laughed back and brought his hands to the front of his
boxers-briefs trying to hide his already growing bulge. "That's kinda
funny ain't it! Well, I'll be right back," he said as he ran back into the
room. He shut the door behind him and breathed heavily. Then he realized
he was being rude and he opened the door to his room again. Justin was
standing there with a smile.
"Would you, uh, like to come in," Nick asked, making sure most of
him stayed behind the door.
"Sure," Justin laughed as he entered the room. Nick let Justin in
and then grabbed a pair of jeans from the drawer, making sure he held them
in front of him.
"I'll just go get dressed then," Nick said blushing. He ran into
the bathroom and yanked his jeans on quickly. He still had quite a bulge
in the front. "Go away," he said, looking down. "Think nasty thoughts,"
Nick tried to think, then spoke again, "... no not that type of nasty. The
other nasty," as if he was talking to his erect member. While Nick thought
the most anti-sexual images flooded his mind. When he was satisfied that
his bulge had gone down enough he exited the bathroom and saw Justin
sitting on the side of his bed. He smiled at him and then walked over to
grab a shirt.
He pulled on a tight, black short sleeve v-neck sweater and turned around
to get his wallet and key.
"Wow," Justin said under his breath. Nick didn't turn to look at
Justin, but smiled widely and blushed.
"Ready to go then," Nick said as he turned and tried to help Justin
to his feet.
"Yea let's go. OH," Justin said as he realized something. "We're
gonna have to eat in the hotel I guess. Joey took the other limo to go
meet his brother."
"Oh, that's OK I guess. The restaurant in this place is great.
Now let's hurry. I'm starving!!!" Nick grasped Justin's hand firmly and
yanked him out of the room, closing the door behind him.
********
"OK, get this man a drink please ma'am," AJ said to the waitress
indicating Lance. "He needs something!" The waitress hurried off. He
yelled towards her, "And make it strong!"
The waitress giggled, turned and then continued to hurry off.
"Could she have been happier to see us," Howie asked with a laugh. Chris
laughed with him and looked over his menu.
"Man I'm starving," AJ said. "Lance, what are you getting?"
Lance sat with his menu closed. "I'm not really that hungry.
Maybe a salad or something."
Chris looked up over his menu and frowned. "Lance you haven't
eaten anything today. You're getting chicken Parmesan and spaghetti, just
like me." He looked into his eyes. "And you will eat all of it!"
Lance laughed. "Fine daddy, I'll eat my supper like a good boy."
AJ and Howie both decided to get some steaks. The waitress came
back with their drinks and took their dinner orders.
"OK Scoop, down it," Chris said with a smile. Lance grinned, brought his
drink to his lips. He tilted his head back and downed it in one gulp. AJ,
Howie, and Chris all gave a yell. "Good boy. You feel better?"
"Not really, but thanks for trying," Lance replied. He set the
glass down and let out a small scream suddenly. Lance looked up and
around. "Oh my god," he said slowly.
"What is it," AJ said as he looked over to where Lance was looking.
"Oh my god."
Chris and Howie followed their gazes and paused. "That's Joey,
isn't it," Howie asked slowly.
"Yea," Chris replied. "But if that's Justin, then he had some
major plastic surgery done in the last four hours."
********
"I've always hated those kind of photo shoots," Justin said with a
laugh. He took a bite of pasta and chewed slowly.
"Yea, but you always look so great in them," Nick said smiling.
Justin blushed. "Oh, sorry." Nick replied and realized what he had
done. "Hey, you know our waiter is pretty hot and well, I think he has the
eyes for you." Nick tried to change the subject.
"No, it's alright, and I believe that was your hand he 'graced' as
he put the plates down. Here, try some of this," he said, lifting his fork
instinctively, and trying to get Nick to understand he truly didn't mind.
Nick opened his mouth and allowed Justin to place some pasta inside. He
smiled widely as he chewed.
"That's great. But you gotta try this chicken." Nick repeated the
process of feeding Justin.
"OK, it's set. I'm ordering two dinners next time," Justin said
with a laugh. Nick joined him and smiled happily.
"Do you mind if I ask you a question," Nick asked finally.
Justin shrugged. "Sure go ahead," Justin said as he continued
eating.
"Why didn't you go with Joey tonight?" Nick kept his eyes on
Justin as he smiled.
"Well actually Joey didn't want me to go with him," Justin said
frowning. He looked down at his pasta and played with his fork a bit.
"Oh, I'm sorry," Nick said, looking down as well.
"No, it's OK. Really. I mean, he wanted to see his brother. You
don't see me complaining, do you? I'm having a wonderful time, really."
Justin placed his hand on Nick's and smiled. Nick felt his hand melt at
Justin's touch and smiled widely.
"You mean it," Nick said.
"Of course I do. Nick, you're one of my best friends and I love
spending time with you." Justin smiled again.
"Friends," Nick said as he smiled on the outside. On the inside,
he felt as though his heart was breaking. 'Justin wants to be friends,' he
thought to himself. 'Only friends.'
"You OK, Nick," Justin asked suddenly. Nick looked into his eyes
and saw genuine concern.
"Yes, I'm fine," Nick said with a smile. He continued to stare
into his eyes and saw something. 'Maybe Justin does want to be more than
friends. He is in a relationship right now. But it's not a very good one.
Maybe he's just waiting for it to be completely over to make his move.'
Nick smiled widely and continued eating.
"God I'm stuffed," Justin said, leaning back in his chair.
"Yea, me too," Nick replied. He handed his credit card to the
waitress as Justin leaned forward.
"Nick, come on. Let me pay. You got the room service last night."
Nick laughed and shook his head.
"Too late. I already gave her my card," he said with a huge grin.
"Next time," Justin said as he put his card away.
"Next time," Nick smiled happily. He thought to himself, 'He wants
a next time!'
******
"I can't believe Joey is doing that to Justin," Lance said as they
entered the hotel.
"Lance, is that all you can say," AJ laughed. "You've said that
about a hundred times already."
"Come on! This is serious stuff. Justin's gonna be heartbroken
when he finds out," Lance said as he approached the elevator.
"Hold on there Scoop," Chris said, stepping forward. "It's not our
place to tell Justin anything. It's up to Joey to tell him."
As the elevator doors closed, Lance could be heard continuing. "I mean if I
was in love with someone, I wouldn't have ever done that."
They all shouted as the doors finally touched. "LANCE SHUT UP!"
The doors opened on their floor and everyone stepped out. Lance
stopped and looked like he was about to say something, then stopped. "I
guess you're right. I won't say anything."
"That's a good boy," Howie said as he patted Lance on the head.
"I'm gonna head back to my room now though. You guys have fun,"
Lance said as he headed towards his room.
*******
Justin and Nick walked around the hotel a little, passing the pool
and weight room. They were gonna go for a swim, but as it was getting late
they decided it would be better if they went back to their rooms and called
it an evening. Nick had wished that he could have reached out and grabbed
Justin's hand, but he knew that this was neither the time nor the place for
it to happen.
The stepped out of the elevator both laughing from a joke that Nick
had just told them. They began the walk to the room.
"That was really funny Nick," Justin laughed out.
"Thank you, yes I am known to be the funny one," Nick replied.
"I thought that was you were known to be the funny looking one."
Justin made his own joke and Nick stopped where he was in the hallway,
dumbfounded. He then caught back up to Justin.
"Hey, that was a low blow. That wasn't any fun!" Nick starting to
whine.
"It was only a joke, and that wasn't a low blow." Justin replied
matter-of-factly.
"What makes you say that Justin?" As Nick started to dig for his key.
"Because," Justin began "when I give a low blow, it is a lot of fun!"
Justin couldn't believe what he had just said, and Nick was stunned at
first and then began to feel very awkward. After a moment of quietness,
they both burst out laughing and continued to their rooms.
On Justin's door there was a blue note. In front of Nicks door was a
green note with a piece of small blue ribbon through one hole of the paper.
The looked at each other first assuming it was each other who had been
Mr. Anonymous. Nick had hoped it was Justin. Justin thought it might have
been Nick, but suddenly a headache approached him as his confusion grew. As
they both stood in front of their doors, each opened their notes.
Justin -
I only wish I could express to you my true desire. Thank you for being the
lovable, creative, fun and exciting you. Today, you looked incredibly hot,
and my only wish is that you understand how I loved seeing you up there
today, flirting with the camera, maybe soon you will.
Mr. Anonymous
Nick -
Tonight, when I first saw how you looked, DAMN I thought you were hot. Then
again, I always have thought that. Stay sexy in your sweater top.
Mr. Anonymous
They looked at each other and silently asked with their eyes, is it
you? Justin was the first to shake his head no. Nick's could feel his heart
start to slide down his chest until his hit the sole of his feet. Nick
shook his head no as well. Justin thought he heard a noise from inside the
room. It was Joey; he was back. Justin suddenly spoke out, "Oh it has been
Joey all along and he really does care about me still." Nick felt ever
worse, he thought he was going to lose his dinner right there. He tried to
act happy and spoke up, but it was still a whisper. "Oh, you know who mine
is? It's probably that hot waiter from dinner. Probably he tipped the
bellboy and he is inside on my bed naked right now waiting for me. I
shouldn't keep em waiting." Nick tried to joke, it didn't work. Only Justin
laughed. "By the way, you shouldn't keep yours waiting either," Nick
continued as he turned and slipped into his door. Justin sighed and agreed
and opened his door.
****
At the other end of the hallway, Brian was just coming back to his
room from getting ice. He saw what happened between Justin and Nick and
decided he should stay out of it for now, even though he really wanted to
be there for and with Nick.
****
When the door of Nick's room closed, there was no hot waiter on the
bed, it was exactly the way he had left it. Nick sighed loudly and slumped
into on of the big chair near the balcony and felt tears run down his face.
For Nick, it was obvious that this evening was useless.
*****
Justin quickly ran from room to room, in all the 3 rooms in his hotel
suite calling for Joey. Joey could not be found anywhere. The cleaning crew
had been in and they had left the TV on. No Joey. Justin checked his
drawers and saw that he hadn't been home to change yet, so he was still
out. Justin decided he would wait for Joey in bed. He put on some music,
quickly got undressed, slid into bed, and put the lights on low. Finally
now, did he take notice of his rock hard member. He played with the head
like a child plays with a new toy. He then tried to think of why he had
such an erection; he hadn't been making out. He wasn't even trying to jack
off. He decided he must have been thinking about someone, but whom? Joey
wasn't here, Mr. Anonymous wasn't either, and he had decided that
Mr. Anonymous was Joey anyway, hadn't he? The only other person he had been
with this evening was Nick. Nick...
****
Nick decided he needed some ice, so he could have the proper
ingredients for his cocktail this evening. He went down the hallway with
dry eyes, temporarily, and the only signs that anything was wrong, was the
fact that he had on one sock and he sniffled heavily.
Brian, who had not moved away from the doorway yet, heard this noise
and looked out the peephole. He saw Nick and decided against his better
half, that he would go down to his room after Nick returned.
Brian slowly walked down the hallway with a soda in one hand and
another in his pocket. He reached Nick's door and knocked. Nick ran to the
door like he was expecting a check for 10,000,000 dollars. He threw the
door open and saw Brian standing there. "Oh, its only you, come on in."
Nick said lowly.
"Gee, thanks for the warm welcome, I mean I have never felt so much
love, since I saw a Jerry Springer episode, where it was 'people who date
their bosses exes for fun, but end up in a sick love triangle part 2' and
the lady in the front row used her chair to pat the guest on the back."
Nick couldn't help himself but laugh. Brian could always make him
laugh. Brian always seemed to know the right thing to say or do to make
Nick come out of his slum.
"Thanks." Nick said as he returned to the couch, a little more
cheerful this time.
Brian plopped down on the bed and was looking, or rather staring at
Nick.
"I brought you a soda," Brian began.
"Oh, that was so sweet of you, like we were on a date or something."
Nick was now making the jokes. Brian knew he felt better now.
"So I saw you were pretty upset out there, why don't you fill me in,"
Brian started.
"OK, here goes. It all started when I was born, my parents--"
"No moron, how about dealing with the stress that is currently making
you feel low. Like lets start with tonight."
"I know what you were saying, I was just trying to laugh a little.
Geez, someone's boxers must be a little tight." Nick replied sarcastically.
"OK, so it all started, like I was saying, when Joey left Justin tonight."
Brian sat up. "He what?"
"Not permanently, just for the evening, he had to go and see someone
or something and didn't want Justin to come along."
"You're kidding..." was all Brian could muster. Their conversation
went on for what seemed like hours. Nick talked about the whole evening and
everything that was bothering him. As time passed, Brian moved from lying
on the bed to sitting to then sitting on the arm of the couch, to the couch
to finally sitting next to Nick with Nick's head in Brian's lap, looking up
at the ceiling and talking/crying/talking out what had happened. Neither
one planned their current seating arrangements, but they didn't stop
talking and moved when they realized how they were sitting. Brian was
gently rubbing Nick's blond locks and Nick's right hand was holding onto
Brian's. The two were sharing something special, but neither knew it then.
****
The time kept passing and Justin now just occasionally looked over at
the clock. He wondered where could Joey be? No one called, there were no
messages yet, and the third limo hadn't returned. He knew because he had
only called downstairs 4 times now. He never thought he would find himself
doing this, but he actually began to worry. He slid down farther in the
covers as the A/C kicked in and Justin felt the cool air across his chest.
He decided he would call the car phone soon if he didn't show.
****
Time passed and Nick and Brian's conversation was coming to an end.
They both stood up and walked to the door. As they stood in the hallway,
Brian finally got some courage.
"So, would it really be that bad if you didn't end up with Justin?"
Brian closed his eyes and hoped for his answer.
"Um, I guess not. I dunno I never gave it that much focused thought
until now," Nick started "... but if I didn't end up with him, I guess it
would probably be you and me who end up together." Nick laughed at his joke
and as he turned and closed the door in Brian's face, he said, "Yeah that
would be funny."
Brian was slightly stunned but had a growing smile on his face. He now
needed to talk to someone. He didn't know who though. Suddenly he
remembered something his mother had told him. "Now Brian honey, when you
need to talk over something important, talk to Kevin. He is family and
family will know what to do--" A light bulb went off in his head. He ran
over to Kevin's room and knocked on the door. No one was there. Brian
remembered Kevin had gone out with J.C. shopping and must not be home
yet. Brian had made up his mind. He camped out in front of his door and
decided to wait. Soon his eyelids were too heavy to keep open and he dozed
off, still blocking Kevin's door. He wanted to talk to him. Now it was the
time Brian decided.
****
Justin lay in bed staring at the phone. He turned away and looked at
the clock, it rang. He quickly fumbled with the phone and hurriedly brought
it up to his ear. "Hello? Joey?"
"Hey Justin, its J.C. just wanted to let you know that I was back in
the hotel in case you wanted to talk."
"Oh, thanks J.C., I am OK right now. Just looking for Joey. Talk to
you later, g'nite."
"OK," J.C. hung up the phone. He had run into AJ down in the lobby,
who had told him what they saw earlier in the evening and J.C. was really
calling to see if Joey was there yet. He honestly did want to talk to
Justin, but he was mostly calling for AJ to calm down.
"You need to sleep man." J.C. said.
"I will, I will - after I see Joey walk through those doors and I rip
the scrotum off of his boy toy." AJ said sternly.
"OK, but tell us really how you feel AJ," J.C. joked. AJ laughed
lightly and they both sat down next to the elevators on a couch.
****
Justin was still in bed and now even more worried. Should he go and
talk to J.C. or not. He didn't know - he just wanted Joey to be all right.
The phone rang again. He picked it up. "Hello?"
"Hey honey, I am calling cause I didn't want you to worry, I will be
home real soon." Joey had true concern and care in his voice. Justin didn't
care about anything except that Joey was now OK.
"I will see you soon honey, I'll wait up for you. Thank you for the
note, I love you." Justin cooed.
"Ok", Joey replied, "I love you too, and it was my pleasure." Justin
hung up the phone and decided that waiting up for Joey was right. The
stress and everything from that evening caused Justin to immediately fall
asleep however in the bed, completely out of his control. Joey as he hung
up the phone began to think, what note?
"Everything OK?" A voice from behind Joey asked.
"Um, yeah, let's go."
Off the two went back out to the club's atmosphere.
****
Kevin came out of the elevator mumbling something about AJ and J.C.
downstairs mulling over everything that was happening. "Ridiculous, he
couldn't have..."
Kevin suddenly stopped and looked down to Brian who was slouching in
front of him at the doorway, sound asleep. Kevin knelt down and shook him
slowly. Brian awoke and smiled widely. "Kevin I need to talk to you."
"What is it?" Kevin said. "Are you OK?"
"Yeah I am great, I just need to talk to you."
"OK, lets go inside, OK?"
"Sure."
They went inside and Brian plopped down on the couch, looking at Kevin
as he put away his four bags.
Kevin turned around, got some water and sat on the bed. "OK, so what
gives?"
"OK, well remember what mom said when we started touring about talking
to family?"
"Um, yeah, I do."
"Well, I need family cuz."
"OK, shoot."
"Well, I am done hiding, so here it goes. I am gay and I am in love
with Nick."
Kevin fell of the bed. He got back up and saw fear on Brian's face.
"Dude, I am not upset, trust me, just lets start a little slower."
"So, tonight after I saw what happened, I went and spent the evening
talking to him, and Nick joked at the end, that worse case he would end up
with me." Brian finished his story and was really happy he got it all out
with minimal tears. After Brian was finished with everything, Kevin
chuckled lightly. "What is so funny? You think Nick won't want me, don't
you." Brian was upset again.
"No, it is just that Nick told me too at first."
"Really? How did that go?" Brian was intrigued.
+++++++++++++++++++++++
Kevin sighed loudly as he walked towards the dressing room. The
rehearsal had lasted for what seemed like an eternity and he would be
thrilled to get out of his sweaty clothes as soon as possible.
As he put his hand on the doorknob he paused. He heard what
sounded like moaning coming from inside. "Don't tell me AJ has another
girl in there," he laughed. He turned the knob slowly and opened the door.
"Shit," Nick yelled as he stammered up off the floor. Kevin gasped
and saw that Nick was only in his boxer shorts. Kevin looked down at the
floor and saw one of the male dancers laughing slightly.
"Nick, what the hell is going on here," Kevin demanded. Nick began
to breathe heavily. He ran his hands through his hair and slowly fell down
to floor as he began to cry. The dancer got up slowly and grabbed his
clothes.
As he passed, Kevin grabbed him by the collar. "He's under age. You go
near him again, you've got yourself a lawsuit." Kevin pushed him out the
door and slammed it shut. He locked the door and walked over to where Nick
was crying. "Nick, calm down," Kevin said as he wrapped his arms around
him. Nick cried heavily on Kevin's shoulder as Kevin stroked his hair and
tried to calm him.
"Kevin, I'm sorry. Please don't hate me," Nick cried.
Kevin exhaled loudly and continued to stroke Nick's hair. "Nick, I
don't hate you. I could never hate you. So, you're gay, huh?"
Nick sobbed louder and kept his head down on Kevin's shoulder.
"Well, I'll take that as a yes then," Kevin laughed. "Nick, you gotta calm
down. Really, I'm fine with this. Look at me." Kevin put his finger
under Nick's chin and lifted it up.
"You're OK with me being gay," Nick said as he wiped his eyes.
"Nick, you're the same person you were before I knew you were gay.
However, you have to realize something. You have to be very careful! You
can't just bring guys into the dressing rooms." Nick nodded and kept
wiping his eyes. "But, if this is what makes you happy, who am I to say
otherwise."
Nick hugged Kevin tightly. "Thank you," he whispered.
+++++++++++++++++++++++
"Well, I have bad news for you cuz", Kevin said.
"What is it? Did Nick tell you he only wants Justin?" Brian was
frantic.
"No, tonight I heard from AJ that Joey was on a date with another guy,
which means Justin is going to be upset, which means Nick and he might
become really close soon." Kevin tried to let him down easily.
"You're KIDDING! I am gonna kill that fuck head! How could he do that
to Justin! AND how could he do that to me!!!" Brian began to cry again.
Kevin tried to console his cousin and whispered to him that everything
will be OK.
****
AJ and J.C. were still downstairs, it was approaching 3am and Joey was
still no where in sight. They were fuming and were not going to let him get
by, as long as they didn't fall asleep first.
