Title: Flabbergasted Author: Candy Disclaimer: ........Yeah.... I wish! But if you Really wanna think that I know or even own *Nsync... Don't! I do not wanna get sued! I do know anthing about their sexuality, and I'm not implying anything by this story
PART FIVE
The trip to The police station where the others were being held was, to say the least, uneventful. There was no words that passed between the two men as they walked, not even a glance, ever when the street lights flickered on.
They some home managed to make there way to there with out so much of an upward glance.
"Jc and Lance walked in the building to find that it looked a lot like a scene from NYPD Blue. Papers were scattered all over desks, people in handcuffs, and a couple of street-walker graced the officers on duty with their presence.
"Can I help you?" The two turned to see a short woman with big blue eyes looking up at them.
"Um yea, We wanna bail out some friends." JC said. Launce chuckled at the not so proper toe in JC's voice. "Right this way." the officer spoke politely. The two followed the woman to what looked like a waiting area. Handing them papers she gave them a promise to return in a few seconds.
After the woman came back, she explained to them the terms of their release.
Soon the two and the officer were on their way back to the jailed inmates.
JC could here a Deep voice speak loudly. "Are you messing with my woman?"
JC couldn't help but blurt the laugh out that tickled his throat. The scene was priceless.
Joey, Chris, and Justin sat on one side of the bars while La Reina and Wendy, Nsync's personal assistant sat on the other. Wendy looked like a scared puppy. Above her, looking like she wanted to kick some ass, stood a tall woman with black hair. She was wearing Black leather and blue jeans. She had a chain attached from her ear to her nose.
"I...I....I...." Wendy stuttered. Wendy wasn't given a chance to continue her shuddering when LA saw the two.
"JC, Lance!!!! Get me outta here.
Lance laughed, "We will, in 24 hours."
"WHAT!!!!!"
"You were the one was directly involved, you have to stay another 24 hours. The rest can come."
La Reina looked like she had lost her best friend. "But... Why?"
The officer opened the cell to let Wendy out. "Because the court still have to clear your charges, if they clear them." She moved to let out the Guys.
"If? But...."
"No, buts about it!!" JC smirked. "See you in 24 hours."
"Wait!! JC." Reina called out as they began to walk out. "How's the press?"
"Haven't gotten the word yet."
La Reina let out a sigh of reliefs. "Its only a matter of Time..... I gotta think."
"See," Justin said smugly, "This extra day gives you time to think up what your going to tell the press."
"HEY!!!" La Reina's "girlfriend" blurted out. Her voice cause everyone to jump and La Reina couldn't help but think that her voice would cause an earthquake. "Your those boys from that gay boy-band."
"Hey." La Reina defended them "I work for that gay boy-band!!!" She blurted out with out thinking. "Besides, isn't that the pot calling the kettle black?"
Etta shrugged. "Maybe, I'm so sorry baby. I think we just had out first lover's quarrel!" she said as she embraced La Reina in her massive arms.
"Oxygen . . . . . . need it." she whispered as the woman hugged her tightly.
Everyone laughed at the "couple" except Joey who was to busy watching Lance and JC's face go from pale to blood red at the words "gay boy-band".
Joey smiled slightly. He had made it his personal mission to watch the two as their relationship grew. He knew it was going to be good.
===================
"JUSTIN!!!!"
Justin turned as he herd a female voice call out his name.
"BRITNEY!!!" He yelled back as a female body latched itself onto his in a tight hug. "You just get here?" Britney nodded as she pulled back.
Britney took in Justin's clothes. "No offense, but you look like hell."
Justin laughed. "I just came fro jail. We got arrested, we had to call Lance and JC to get us out."
"Ohh, La Reina's going to have a hissy...."
"She can't! She was the one who got us arrested."
She threw her head back in laughter. "So what's been going on?" she said, slightly out of breath.
"Oh, Brit, Brit, Brit!!! This one," He said as he put his arm around her shoulder, "Is going to take a while to explain."
========================
"So let me get this straight." Britney said as she sat on Justin's bed eating pizza. "Chris caught Lance and JC Kissing?" Justin nodded. "And La Reina had noticed tension? So the two over hyper active adults put there heads together and came up with a plan. And now they have you and Joey in on a plan to get JC and Lance together." Justin nodded. "This is sooooo ironic!! That is a PS's worst nightmare and she is heading it up." Justin nodded again. "This is going to be good."
"Now what we have to do is we have to get them ADMIT their sexual energy's for each other."
"Just, how do you know they're there. Maybe it was just a kiss like me and you have, a friendly 'Hello'-'goodbye' kiss. By the way did you see 'Star'? I wish i had been in Jamaica!"
Justin laughed at her abrupt change in subjects. "I know it's there I can feel it. besides, Men do not give men friendly 'Hello'-'goodbye' kisses."
"Oh yeah, Men are of a different race than Women."
"Oh and Ry called me, he believe whet they said...."
"In 'Star'?"
Nodding he continued. "And he really doesn't trust me."
"Oh, Justy, You know you could do so much better than him."
Just sighed as he continued to munch on pizza. "Oh yeah. How are we going to get them to fess up?"
"To liking each other? Well you gotta get them to face it before they can admit anything."
Sighing just said, "Maybe LA wil have some ideas tomorrow."
PART SIX
3:57 am
............
"La Reina Ann Childes! Have fun with your girlfriend?" Reina looked at Justin, willing him to die before her eyes.
"We broke off the engagement. I told her the relationship was progressing to quickly and I needed sometime. After all, my ex-boyfriend hurt me pretty bad." she said letting a slight pout come into her tone. Justin began to laugh until Reina continued, "She said she would kill him and than I told her you were my ex..."
Justin's laugh stopped and he looked up to the smug Reina. "You didn't." but Reina's smile answered him. "I got an idea, well, I got Brit's idea. She said we had to get them to face it before we could get them to admit anything." La Reina nodded, all animosity forgotten.
"Actually, I have an awesome one. Being in jail gets a girl to thinkin'. I'm going to fast forward it." Looking at her watch she continued. "I'm going out for a walk and I'll be back in 2 hours."
"LA, It's New York and 4 in the morning."
She shrugged. "I'm just going to the deli across the street to get food. And just so you know, Jail food is actuality not that bad. Besides I have to get ready for my big performance. By the way, Do you ever sleep?"
Justin cocked an eyebrow. "What are you going to do?"
Reina smiled. "You'll see. Do you?"
Justin shrugged. "Sometimes, except you woke me up."
"How?"
"You kicked my door!!!"
"You left me in jail!!!"
"Hey," he said holding up his hands. "Your the one who kicked that chicks ass for kissing Wendy."
"Wendy wasn't enjoying it. That girl was forcing herself on her."
Justin stopped the argument. "What are you going to do? I mean tell the press?"
Shrugging she said "Y'all are going to look like heroes."
"Oh."
=======================
Chris awoke to his name being screamed and banging on his door. Looking at the clock that said 6:23 he felt his way around for his boxers. He couldn't very well open the door in all his glory.
"WHAT!" He said as he opened the door to revel a pissed off press secretary.
"Go into my room. NOW!!!" She yelled. She about walled off with Chris behind her before she stopped and turned to him. "Chris." She said letting her eyes look him up and down. "Get some pants on first."
=======================
When Chris entered La Reina's room he noticed 2 things. One was La Reina pacing in front of the other guys, number two was only Lance and JC had t-shirts on.
"SIT!" La Reina barked at Chris. After Chris took his seat she began. "Do I look tense? I should, wanna know why... because I am...." She said, obvious in her voice that she was controlling a temper. "I called you all here NOW because someone or SOMEONES is/are keeping a secret. How do I know about this secret? BECAUSE A SOMEONE CAME UP TO ME WITH A PICTURE OF IT!!!" La Reina continued to pace, every now and then letting her eyes drift over all the guys in the room. Not letting anyone know who she was talking about. "Now," She said her voice a lot calmer. "I'm going to give the party... of people, involved a chance to tell me and explain to it me before I have to explain to the press." She stopped pacing. "Now. If you don't wanna have to tell everyone, you than JUST tell me. I'll be good and I wont tell a soul. I won't have to BECAUSE THERE ARE PICTURES!!!!" She said screaming in Lance's face causing Lance to jump slightly. "I will talk to you, one at a time, maybe even two, until I get it out of you." She turned to Chris. "You first." She said clenching her teeth.
=======================
To say that Chris was scared shit-less would be an understatement, he was facing a pissed off La Reina. Any sane minded person would be. And we all know Chris isn't known for his sanity.
She sat there, at least 30 minuets, just staring at him. When she finally spoke, Chris let out a yelp.
"Chris. What were they wearing?"
"Who?
"JC and Lance."
Chris looked at her curiously. He turned his gaze to the door. "I think JC was wearing a blue shirt...."
"No! When they.... Ya know."
"Oh, Lance was in a grey long sleeved t-shirt, and JC had on orange.... Why?'
"You can leave now." She said calmly. "Send JC in." When JC sat in the same spot on the bed Chris had just vacated. Closing her eyes, La Reina spoke. "Do you need to tell me something?"
JC looked around the room. "Your a neat freak."
"JC. Don't start." She said letting a growl enter her voice.
She walked over to the door and opened it in time to see Lance hit his head against the wall. She smiled pleasantly "Lance will you please come here."
Lance walked in. He looked at JC. JC looked like he had been beaten with a shovel.
What made Lance most uncomfortable was she was still smiling pleasantly. He had only new her for a few months, but she didn't act complicated, didn't mean her mind was simple.
"Please, Lance, sit next to JC." She said indicating the empty spot next to him. "I thought you could give him some SUPPORT!!!"
After Lance took his seat, La Reina spoke. "Is there something you need to share with me? Is there something you need to tell me so I will know what to say when it comes up?"
Lance and JC looked at each other, seemingly for the first time in years. "No." was simply said by JC after the two turned their eyes back to the floor.
"Oh, But Joshua, you look so good in orange, and you know Lance, I always liked that gray shirt." She herd them take in a deep breath. [Thank you Chris for noticing weird things.] She smiled at the two, yet-to-be, lovers. "We are going to play a game. I Ask a question, I get an answer. Now. Will you explain to me what happened."
"It just sorta happened." JC said quietly
"I didn't say 'why', I said 'what'."
"You know what happened." Lance said
"I wanna hear one of you say it, out loud. Now WHAT happened?"
"We....We..." Jc muttered, more to himself that the others
"Kissed." Lance finished.
A soft sigh came from the smiling lips of La Reina. "Now, I'm going to ask, WHY did it happen?" JC about answered her until she raised her hand to silence him. "I don't want that 'It just sorta happened crap'. Give me a thought-out response. We can wait."
Both of the boy's minds were going a million miles an hour.
JC couldn't get the taste of Lance's lips out of his mouth. The caress of his tongue. The way Lance moaned into the kiss. He closed his eyes and let out a sigh he hoped no one heard.
But Lance heard. JC had made that same sigh when they kissed. JC's taste was nearly intoxicating. He bit his on lip to keep from sighing at the memory.
JC was the first to speak. "Lance was in my room. We were talking about something........ I got caught up in the moment."
"His hands, I was thinking about his hands..... I wanted them to.......so badly..."
"His eyes. He has the coolest looking eyes." JC laughed in spite of himself.
"How did it feel?" LA asked. They were getting somewhere, really fast. She was sure she would have to sleep in one of their room to night. They looked like they were about to jump each other, in a good way, right then.
"Good." They both sighed, remembering the memory of the kiss. At the time the kiss seamed to last for life times but now it just seamed like a second.
Lance suddenly jumped up. "NO!! NO!! It Felt good for ONE second. That was it! No MORE!"
La Reina watched as JC grinded his teeth at the comment.
Lance put his hands on his hips. He had to think. Thinking was not possible right now. That one memory obscured all of his brain functions. "We gotta figure out what to tell the press if this picture gets out."
That was LA let out the laugh that had been building in her throat.
JC and Lance looked at her, both thinking, [why she is taking this so light hearted.]
"Look guys. I gotta tell you something. I made up the whole picture thing."
"YOU WHAT??? How did you know? How could you lie so easily." La Reina looked up to JC. Not sure if she should drag the others into this, she lied, "I saw you. Besides, I deal with the press, I'm the best actress in this hotel." She said standing up.
"WHY ON THIS FUCKING EARTH WOULD YOU LIE ABOUT THAT?"
Reina flinched at Lance's harsh words but stood her ground. "I know there are feelings there, I just wanted you guys to start to feel them."
"I don't think......."
"That is the problem, Lance, You think to much, sometimes you have to FEEL. Now Get out." She said pointing to the door. "Go sleep you have that MTV MA rehearsal to do."
Lance left with out saying a word. La Reina was about to tell JC to leave, but he was about to cry.
"Oh, Josh. Don't cry, you know I don't take well to crying!" Her voice started to tear up. She really did hate it when people cried, it always made her cry too.
JC let his body slide off her bed and onto the floor. She got on the floor with him and let him cry as she started to sob softly herself. JC looked at her, wanting to say something, anything, but his lips wouldn't forget the feel of Lance's. He lips were in total control of his memories.
"Shh, We can talk in the morning." JC continued to cry in her arms until he fell into a blissful sleep.
PART SEVEN
La Reina's first thought was that there was a warm body next to hers. Leaving her eyes closed she brought her hand up to the head that was resting on her shoulder. Her fingers came in contact with soft hair.
"Oh.. No....." she moaned, thinking she had had another one of her infamous one night stands. Opening her eyes. She suddenly regretted it. She eyes were dry from crying with JC.
"Oh, Thank you Goddess." she said as she remembered JC crying himself to sleep.
She tried to get up, only to have JC's arm tighten his hold on her. That was when she noticed the position they were in.
JC had an arm draped across her body and his head on her shoulder. She looked up to see the side of the bed. They were still in the floor.
"JC, honey. Wake up." She said shaking his shoulder. She swore she heard him mumble something about Lance. [Oh, poor JC. I WILL get Lance to admit his feelings for Josh, even if I have to make him.......] La Reina's eyes went wide from excitement. She had the perfect plan. She got JC to admit it, even if he didn't say it out loud. The thousand tears were like a million words each. "WAKE UP JC!!!" She screamed in his ear.
JC quickly raised up. [That was a mistake] He thought as his head began pounding. "Where am I?"
"I'm My room...."
"What time its it?"
"It's 9. We have only been asleep a couple of hours."
"9 is too early." he grumbled.
"Yeah well guess what. You guys have rehearsal at 1." She said, ignoring his resentful moans. "Come one get up."
JC wasn't sure how he got to his feet, but he knew that he was on them.
"Go." She said pushing JC out of her room and into the hall way. "Get the others up."
Reina turned as she shut the door. Her mind was running so fast she couldn't be sure what she was thinking.
She knew just how to get Lance and JC together.
=======================
".......and when you finally, get to love somebody... guess what. Its gonna be me." Justin practically pured into the microphone.
La Reina looked at the group preforming on the stage. She could understand why girls threw themselves at their feet.
She would admit Justin was REALLY cute. She could spend Hours watching him fuss with his hair. And it WAS fussing. He would threaten his hair if it didn't do what he wanted. In the end one of the two would win and he would either have his hair perfect of he would have a hat or bandana on.
Joey was a flirt. He had that personality that girls (and some guys) go coo-coo over. She liked to watch him flirt. He flirted with everyone differently. He would watch them for a few minuets, than he would approach them. If she didn't go crazy over Joey Fatone of Nsync talking to her, he would continue to talk to her. If he just wanted to dance he would Ask her name and ask her to dance, or he would say something like "Why isn't a woman like you dancing with lonely me." It was corny, but it worked. If he wanted to take her home with him he would ask her to dance to a slow song. If he wanted it for longer than one night, he would let her initiate the conversation.
JC was just sweet. And that voice, he could sing her to sleep any time. She was madly in love with him when he was in MMC, but she would die before she would admit it.
Lance was a gentleman to the bone. He would never take advantage of a situation. And for as long a she had known him he had never actually had sex with anyone while on tour. His mind is in the business. He would have been successful no matter what career he took.
Chris. She never was into shorter guys, but she was madly in love with him. He was the only man she had ever met that didn't run off screaming when she opened up a conversation with "Now that I'm here, the party can begin." Instead he had said, "Yeah, FINALLY!!! Man, I was about to fall asleep." But he was with Dani. Dani made him happy. So she was happy for them.
"Hey, LA." Her name caused her to be jerked out of her thoughts. She turned to see her ex-employer smiling at her.
"Hey, Kevi-poo. Sup!"
"Not Much." He said as he took a seat next to Reina. "THAT'S what you left us for." He said sarcastically, pointing to the guys.
La Reina turned to him with very serious look on her face. "You just weren't challenging."
Kevin's face burst into laughter. It was true. Working for BSB was a lot like a vacation. The only thing she had to do was announce things like concert dates and the next single. Well she did have to break the news that Kevin and Brian were getting married.
"So how is the new, Mrs Richerdson. Will she becoming tomorrow?"
"Yep. Hows you and Sean?"
"We broke up."
"Again?!?"
"This time is permanent."
"Hey, you aren't trying to still her are you?" Kevin and Reina looked up to see Justin and Chris walking up to them.
"Naw, she yours. We don't want her any more." Kevin said laughing.
"Hey." Rein poked him him the ribs with her elbow. "You guys are supposed to hate each other!"
"OH YEAH!!!! I hate you Justin, and I hate you Chris."
Chris made a small sniffling sound. "That's not what you said last night."
Everyone was laughing until Nicks voice yelled out Kevin's name.
"We gotta practice." Nick yelled at him. He just laughed, "We sit there the entire song."
"Tell her that." Nick said back pointing to the director. After Kevin said his "laters" and "goodbyes" La Reina asked where JC was. Being told he was in the back she get up and went in search of him.
"JC?"
"Yeah?"
"I have this idea...."
TBC.....
