You Don't Have To Be Alone


    "Guys, they have been yelling for over an hour, don't you think we should 
do something?" Joey asked refering to Justin and Jc in the other room.

    "Joey, you know the rule--never get involved unless they ask us to butt 
in." Chris said.

    "Plus--its just getting good!" Lance said excitedly.

    "WE'RE--" *Glass Breaks* "--OVER." They heard Justin yell.

    The three looked at each other in disbelife. "I can't just sit here." 
Joey said as he stood up and walked out of the room. When he entered the 
hallway he saw  Justin running out of the room and out the front door. Next 
he heard Justin's car peel out. "Jc?--Jc are you ok?" Joey asked through Jc's 
bedroom door. The door opened and a sobbing Jc fell into his arms.

    "He's gone--Joey--he's gone!" He cried.

    "Shhh, its gonna be ok--wanna tell me what happened?" Joey asked leading 
Jc back into the room and sitting on the bed. Joey looked around the floor to 
see what the crash was. He found it. A framed picture of Justin and Jc's 
first date.

    "He...He walked in when I was talking to Jon." Jc started. 

    "Wait--Jon? As in your ex?" Joey asked. Jc Nodded.

    "Justin was afraid that I was still in love with him--he asked me to stop 
calling Jon so I said I would, I lied--Joey! I lied and I hurt the man I love 
more than anything in this whole world. I called Jon, and well, I will always 
love him because he was my first love." Jc said.

    "But what you and Justin's love is stronger?" Joey questioned.

    "That's what I tried to tell him--.but, but he wouldn't listen." Jc cried.

    "Jc? He is going to forgive you--he loves you, he will realize you love 
him. Now just get some rest ok?" Joey said rubbing his friends back.

Jc nodded and laid down on the bed and pulled the covers over himself. Joey 
got up and walked out the door. "Joey?" he asked. Joey rentered the room. 
"thanks." Jc said and Joey smiled.



The morning came slowly. Jc hadn't slept a wink. Joey had told the others 
what happened and they all stayed up till 2 worrying about their friend. And 
Justin. He didn't come home. 

Lance, Joey, and Chris gathered around the kitchen table and ate breakfast. 
"So--who's going to tell Jc? That Justin didn't come back?" Chris said eyeing 
Joey. Lance saw this and did the same.

"Why do I have to tell him?" Joey whined.

"Because you were there last night when he needed someone." Lance said.

"Ok, I guess I will." Joey said standing up.

The font door closed and Justin entered. "Hey guys." He said with no emotion.

"Your home." Lance said.

"I was just going to go wake Jc--" Joey said leaving the room.

"Let him sleep." Justin said.

"Can I talk to you?" Joey asked walking into the other room. 

Justin nodded and followed him. "What's up?" He asked.

"I talked to Jc last night." Joey said.

"--So?--" Justin really didn't care what Joey had to say.

"Humor me ok? Just listend--he said he's sorry. That he didn't mean to lie to 
you, but he is friends with Jon. He only calls him to talk once and a while. 
He was Jc's first love, they have something between them that you will never 
have and maybe that scares you but you know what?" Joey said angrily.

"What?" Justin hissed.

"He loves you. He loves you more than anything Justin. He loves you more than 
Me, Lance, Chris, God! He loves you more than his own family. Your just to 
blinded to see." Joey finished yelling and left the room.

Justin sat there with tears streaming down his face. //Why was I so stupid? I 
shouldn't have blown up at him.\\ Justin said heading up the stairs to the 
room he and Jc shared. We he walked in Jc was sound asleep in their bed. 
Justin looked down in shame, but when he did this he saw the shareds of glass 
in the trash can. Also in the can was the picture of the two wich was ripped 
by the glass. He left the room.



It was now 6 in the afternoon and Jc had just woken up. He stood up and 
walked down the stairs into the kitchen. "Where is everyone?" he wondered. He 
saw a note on the refridgerator. He picked it up and read it.
    Me, Chris and Lance went to the mall. We will be back around 7:30. I hope 
your feeling better.
       -Joey
He through away the note and walked into the living room. Lying on the couch 
was Justin. Asleep. Jc frowned and returned to their room.



    Justin woke up and felt something on his chest. He looked up and saw a 
wraped, flat, rectangular object. //What's this?\\ He sat up and opened it. 
It was a framed piece of paper with a poem on it. It was Jc's handwriting. 
Justin began to read it aloud.
            I don't know when we fell apart
            The love that we had was like a work of art
            I used to see heaven in your eyes
            Now angels are falling from your skies

            Things we said were so wrong
            And I haven't held you for so long
            My foolish pride turns me inside
            Why did we tell all those lies
            You can reach for the phone
            You don't have to be alone

            Outside the winter seems so cold
            Your heart is frozen like the snow
            And there's no one home 
            To keep you safe and warm
            Your eyes are red because you've cried
            You fell asleep by the fireside
            But there's one thing you should know
            On this Christmas, baby, you don't have to be alone
He was now sobbing. He looked up and saw Jc standing in the door way also 
sobbing. "Im sorry." Justin said.

    "It was my fault, im sorry." Jc said walking over and sitting on the 
couch.

    "I love you Josh." He said looking into Jc's crystal blue eyes.

    "I love you too, Justin." He replied pulling Justin in for a kiss.

            The End
