September 15, 2003

"Oooooh! That tickles!" Josh said as Lance began licking at his neck.

"It's supposed to! Just wait! I'm far from finished! And believe me,
ticklish, is the last thing you're gonna be feeling!" Lance said as he
kissed his long time lover on the mouth.

After lying in their king-sized bed, of one of the many rooms in their
large mansion located in Virginia, for 10 minutes of making out, Lance
started to head southward. He had come to enjoy the look on Josh's face
when he first swallowed his cock whole. It gave him a sense of control that
was more then any of his powers could give. Josh lost himself in the
pleasure that was now surrounding his cock. So much so that he almost
didn't hear the phone ring.

"I . . . Is that the . . . the phone?" He asked, still in sexual nirvana.

"Mmmm hmm." Lance grunted.

"I . . . I think I'd better answer it!"

"Nnn mmm!"

"I . . . I gotta! It could be important!"

"Fine!" Lance said rolling over on his back with a disappointed look.

"We'll continue this in a second!" Josh said giving him a quick kiss then
jumping off the bed to get the phone.

"Yeah, yeah!"

"Hello?" Josh said answering the phone.

"J . . . Josh!" a woman sobbing over the phone managed to say.

"Lynn? What's wrong?!?"

Lance got off the bed and walked over to his lifetime companion.

"It's . . . It's . . . <sob>"

"Lynn, calm down! What is it?"

"It's Justin! He's . . . he's . . ."

"He's what?"

"He's dead!"

"WHAT!?!?" Josh said dropping the phone.

"Josh? Baby! What happened?!?" Lance said trying to get an answer out of
Josh, who had a pure look of fear and shock on his face. He picked up the
phone and said, "Lynn?  This is Lance, what happened?!?"

"Justin's been hit by a car! He . . . He didn't make it!"

"Oh my god! What?!? When?!?"

"This . . . This morning! He died instantly! It's been all over the news!"

Lance covered the phone receiver and said,

"TV on!"

The TV turned on and on the screen was a news report, the reporter was
saying the details of what happened,

"Former pop star Justin Timberlake of the multi Grammy award winning group
*NSYNC was killed today in a car crash. Twenty-two year old Timberlake was
on his way to his Miami Beach home when he was hit by a drunk driver and
killed on impact. More on that story and others after this break."

"Oh my god Lynn! We're leaving right now!" Lance said.

"I . . . I gotta call the others, I gotta make the funeral arrangements, I
gotta . . . I gotta . . "

"You gotta stay calm and worry about that when we get there!"

"I'll . . . I'll try!"

"Ok, we'll see you in an hour or so."

"O . . . Ok."

Lance hung up the phone and tried to snap Josh out of his shock.

"JOSH! SNAP OUT OF IT! YOU'RE SCARING ME!" He yelled into Josh's face.

"Huh? What?!" Josh said coming out of his trance.

"Come on, we gotta get down to Florida!"

"Uh . . .  yeah, ok. Call the airport and have the jet fueled up."

"Already done!" Lance said pushing a button on the phone.

"We gotta get some clothes!"

"Also done!"

"OH yeah, um . . . um . . . we gotta . . . we gotta . . ."

"We gotta head onto the airport!"

"Y . . . yeah . . ."

	The ride to Florida was quite, Lance and Josh sat next to each
other on their personal jet. Josh was holding back the tears in his eyes
from falling, as was Lance.  Josh was trying to figure out what was wrong
with the picture. He hadn't felt anything happen to Justin. He would and
should have felt something, but he didn't. He couldn't explain it. He
started to think about everything that they had done, from the first time
they started *NSYNC, to the last time the saw each other. He couldn't hold
it back anymore and started to cry, putting his hands up to cover his eyes.

	Lance looked at Josh when he saw the movement, he slowly put his
arm around Josh, pulled him closer, and started to cry with him. He knew
something wasn't right either. He hadn't felt anything from Justin . . . at
all. He lightly placed a kiss on Josh's forehead and laid his head on his
shoulder. Josh wrapped his arms around Lance and started to cry harder.

"Do you think that Joey, and Chris are going to be there?" Josh asked as he
slightly calmed down.

"I don't know. They should be. They wouldn't just ditch Just like that."

"Yeah, you're right I guess."

There was an awkward pause, they both wanted to ask the same thing, but
didn't know how.

"Did you feel him die? Cause I didn't." Josh finally blurted out.

Lance closed his eyes and more tears started to fall.

"Die," He thought to himself, "Justin can't just be dead."

Josh looked up at Lance and said,

"He is dead, Lynn saw his body. God," Josh stood from his seat and started
to pace back and forth, "Justin isn't dead, we would have felt it, we would
have felt something if it happened to him!"

He was angry, and upset. Lance didn't dare try to stop him. Josh had gotten
stronger over the years. He had new powers and we he would get pissed, he
would use them. It was best just to let him go off.

"Don't you think we would have felt him DIE! I mean come on! Everything
Justin did we felt! Remember that time, that he and . . . Oh what was that
girl's name? AMBER!  Remember when they were fucking on the bus, when we
were doing like some promotion thing, and when he came it was so intense
that we all came! Do you remember that?"

After Josh's outburst, there was a dead silence, except for the hum of the
plane. They then looked at each other and just started busting up.

"And we all like jumped and tensed up at the board meeting! And all the
producers and stuff just stared at us." Lance said crying tears of joy now.

"And then we were so embarrassed and Justin felt it and told us he was
sorry when we got back on the bus!" Josh said lying on the floor of the
plane holding his gut cause he was laughing so hard.

"And we kept making fun of Joey cause he hadn't cum in so long that it like
showed up really bad through his pants."

They laughed for a couple more minutes and them Josh let out a long sigh.

"We sure did have fun didn't we?"

"Yeah . . . Yeah we sure did." Lance said.


For the next hour they laughed and they cried, remembering the stuff they
had done during their days of *NSYNC. When they landed in Orlando, they
were met by a taxi that Lynn sent for them. The cab driver knew exactly
where to go, and it was already paid for.  Josh and Lance didn't like the
idea of Lynn paying for them. They had more then enough money for cab
fair. The sun was just starting to set, when they got to Lynn's house. They
looked around seeing how much the place had changed. Even though it had
only been two years since they had last been there, it had still changed a
lot.

	Both of them pulled their bags out of the trunk of the cab, and
rang the doorbell.  Lynn opened the door, her face and eyes red, from
crying. She started to cry more when she saw Lance and Josh standing
there. She smiled, hugged them both, and let them in.  The house hadn't
changed much; it had only modernized a little.

"So, how'd you boys get here so quick? I wasn't expecting you till
tomorrow." Lynn said as she led them into the living room.

"We left just after you hung up. So . . . How are you?" Josh said as he
looked at her with caring eyes.

She sighed and looked over at the fireplace where there were 7 or 8
pictures of Justin.

"As good as can be expected. You know, the weird thing is that, when he
left here this morning, he gave me a really big hug, and said, 'I love you
always remember that.' It's like he knew he was going to die or . . ." She
said as she started to cry really hard.

Both Josh and Lance sat next to her and comforted her. After about 6 or 7
minutes she stopped, and wiped the tears from her eyes. Josh and Lance,
were starting to tear up too, but had to be strong for Lynn.

"You can have your old room JC . . . I mean, Josh. I should hope you
remember where it is." She said with a forced laugh.

Josh leaned forward and gave her a kiss on the forehead.

"If you need anything, ask. We'll be there for you."

Lance lightly gave her a hug, and followed Josh up the stairs. She wanted
to be alone, and they knew it. Lance and Josh were in the room for about a
half-hour, thinking about everything that was going on when they saw a blue
aura start to appear in front of them.

"Chris?" They both said.

As they said that, Chris appeared in front of them. Since the last time
they had seen him, had toned up, he no longer had that slight potbelly that
they used to make fun of him for.

"Yeah! Shhh! Lynn doesn't know I'm here yet! I just wanted to see how you
guys were first. I just . . ." Chris said with a confused look on his face.

"We didn't feel it either." Josh said.

"Then I'm NOT the only one!"

"No." Josh said.

"Ok, good. But . . . then what's going on?"

"I dunno."

"We gotta discuss this later! I gotta get back cause Dani doesn't know I'm
gone!"

"How is she?" Lance asked.

"She's good, the baby's due in February. Anyway, I told Lynn I'd be here in
the morning.  I'll see you guys tomorrow! We gotta talk then!"

"Ok, we'll see yah."

"I'm gonna go check on Lynn."

"Ok."


September 16, 2003

Chris arrived first with his wife of a year and a half, who was 4 months
pregnant with their first child. They gave their condolences and shared
their tears. Although Chris knew there was something weird about the whole
thing, he felt sorry for Lynn. After her and Paul's divorce, Justin was all
that she had.

Joey was the next to arrive with his wife of 7 months, Linda, and their
1year old daughter, Maggie. Joey hadn't changed much over the years, he
still had his mustache and goatee the only difference was, that he let his
hair go back to its original dark brown color. Every once and awhile he
would put blonde streaks in it, but that was only when he was shooting on
the set of his TV show. There was a similar greeting with them, then the
former *NSYNCers went off into the backyard to talk.

"You guys felt it too huh?" Joey said as they got into the backyard.

"No, you felt something!?" Josh asked.

"No, that's what I meant . . . I mean, you didn't feel anything either
right?"

"No." They all said.

"This is too weird! Chris said.

"He can't be dead. That's the only reason." Josh said.

"Well, we better get back in there and help with the funeral arrangements."
Joey said.

"That's already been taken care of."

"When?"

"Last night. Lance and I took care of everything. They're going to have his
body laid out for two days. They fixed up whatever body it is that they
have and the first wake is tonight at 5, then tomorrow at 12. Then after
that it's onto the mass then the burial."

"Why so soon and short?" Chris asked.

"Because of his popularity, we didn't want Lynn and Randall to have to be
mobbed with a whole bunch of reminders. We sent a statement out to the
press saying that whoever wanted to send their condolences or anything else
like that, to send it to a P.O. box that we set up. We made sure that there
wouldn't be any television coverage all for Lynn's sake." Lance said.

"That's the best." Joey said.



September 17, 2003

"Here we lay to rest, Justin Randall Timberlake," The minister said with
slight sorrow in his voice, "Who in the midst of his life was taken in away
in a brief second. God called him to the Heaven for a reason, one we may
never know."

Josh, Lance, Joey, and Chris, listened to the words, but knew they weren't
real. They knew Justin was still alive, somewhere near. But they didn't
know where. As they lowered the coffin into the ground, they could feel the
weight of the body that looked so much like Justin's, yet they knew wasn't
his. When the coffin was lowered all the way into the grave, Lynn broke
down even more. Tears were now flowing down the cheeks of the 4 remaining
members of N Sync. The pain of knowing that Justin was still out there, and
the burning desire to know the reason he would pull something like this had
brought them to tears. As the 4 men consoled Lynn and helped her walk back
to their limo, they could feel Justin's presence. As they put Lynn in the
limo, they heard a voice say,

"Take care of her, I love you all."
