Josh and Just 25
"What do you mean she's nuts? And if she is then why are you coming to our house?" JC asked as he looked out the window as he held the curtain open with his finger.
"She's stalking me. She almost ran over Marissa!" Lance replied, taking off his coat. JC walked with then into the living room where they took a seat on the couch.
"Hey you two. What's up?" Justin asked.
"Well it started out when I was walking out of the house to pick up Marissa. I thought I saw a car that looks like Danielle's on the street. And once I started driving the car followed me for a while before disappearing. Then I picked up Marissa and saw the car pull onto the street behind me. Then I saw the same car at dinner and the same car at the movies. And we were on the way to the club when I saw it again. So we came here. But the weird thing was that Marissa said that it's the same car that tried to run her over when she walked across the street after we finished dinner." Lance said as he sat on the couch while Marissa let out a small yawn.
"Sorry. I'm a little tired. Being stalked takes a lot out of you." Marissa joked.
"You know you can go into the guestroom and take a little nap. It's down that hall right there and on the right." Justin pointed. Marissa nodded and walked to the room. JC took his seat in the love seat next to Justin and wrapped himself in the blanket they had. He was greeted by Jonathan trying to climb into his lap. JC helped Jonathan climb up and placed the boy in his lap before closing the blankets around him as well.
"You know maybe it was just a coincidence or something. Or next time why don't you just confront the person." Justin proposed.
"Yeah I might. But right now I'm a little freaked." Lance replied.
"What color is the car?" Tyler asked as he looked outside the window.
"It's cherry red." Lance replied.
"Nope just a blue car and a black car outside." Tyler replied.
"Well you can crash here as long as you want to." Justin replied as he petted Ozzie who was curled up in his lap. Lance nodded and walked up the stairs. JC quickly let out a small sneeze which caused Justin to look worriedly at him.
"You know Jonathan, you should get to bed. It's too late for you." Justin said as he looked at the boy who was drowsing in and out of slumber.
"Kay." Jonathan said. JC opened his arms to let Jonathan come out. Justin picked up his brother and took him upstairs.
"Wow your life is exciting." Tyler said as he sat on a couch making sure not to wake Ozzie.
"Yeah a little scary too." JC said letting out a small sniffle.
"Maybe you should get to bed too." Tyler suggested.
"I guess so." JC said as he got up. He took the blanket off himself and placed it down on the couch. He picked up Ozzie and Leo carefully and placed them down carefully on their doggy bed.
"Goodnight Brat." JC said as he walked up the stairs. He received a wave from Tyler and walked up the stairs. JC walked into his room and took off his robe. He pulled back the covers of his bed and fluffed his pillow. JC went into the bathroom and started to brush his teeth. Justin walked in and placed a small kiss on JC's neck before taking a seat on the counter next to the sink. JC spit into the sink and looked at Justin.
"Hey sexy." JC said as he filled up a cup full of water. He quickly gargled and walked to where Justin was sitting. He stood between Justin's parted legs, resting his hands on either side of Justin's waist.
"So are you worried about this whole Danielle thing?" Justin asked as he leaned down a bit to rest his forehead on JC's shoulder.
"No we don't have to worry it's Lance she's stalking." JC joked. Justin quickly hit him in the side of the arm.
"Sorry I was just joking." JC laughed. The phone started to ring as the two laughed between themselves. Justin hopped off the counter and walked into his bedroom with JC trailing. Justin picked up the cordless and turned it on while making his way to the futon.
"Hello?" Justin asked as he got comfortable with JC who took a seat next to him.
"Hey Justin! Can I ask you a biiiiiiiiig favor? Pleeeeeeeeeease???" a teenage girl asked as she begged into the phone.
"Hi Laura. Sure you can ask. But that doesn't mean I'll accept it." Justin replied.
"Okay here's the scoop. Mom said I can have a lil sleepover this weekend. Mainly tomorrow all day, that night, and the next day. Okay? Well Mom said that I could have one but I don't want to have one at home. Cause I know Mom and Paul are going to be all up on me and making sure I don't do certain things and all that. Sooooo I was wondering. . . if we could possibly. . . have the sleepover. . . at your house?" Laura asked quietly.
"What?!" Justin laughed.
"Pleeeeease Justin. You my most favorite brother you know that. And it's only six girls including myself and one of them is Suzy. You know Suzy. You like Suzy. You said she's like a fan that treats you guys like regular guys and not celebrities." Laura pleaded.
"Suzy I'm not worried about. It's the other four I'm worried about. And how come you are telling me about this tonight. We just got back from new York and did I receive a welcome home call. Mom came to visit. Where were you?" Justin asked.
"Justin I was busy. I really wanted to but I had to do something." Laura replied.
"Well I don't know Laura. You are asking for a lot. We still have to go get food and all that stuff. Plus me and JC have to act differently. Plus even if I said yes, you still have to convince JC." Justin replied. JC arched an eyebrow in question. Justin held up a finer before giving him a small peck at the corner of his mouth.
"Plus JC is sick." Justin added.
"Justin food is covered. Mom took me and Suzy to go shopping. You and JC don't have to stay around you can go somewhere or upstairs or something. And I'll bring some of those nasty cough drops that Paul has around the house for JC." Laura pleaded.
"Okay you got my vote. But now it's time to convince Josh." Justin said handing the phone to him.
"Whatever it is I agree." JC said into the phone.
"Oh thank you. Thanks you. Thanks you JC! I love you!" Laura said excitedly.
"Your welcome. Bye now. and goodnight." JC said hanging up the phone.
"Okay now what did I just agree to?" JC asked.
"You are such an idiot!! I wanted you to b the tough one not the pushover. You just agreed to have six teenage girls spend the night in our house!" Justin said as he hit JC with a pillow.
"Uh oh! Okay well the Den is off limits, and so is our room. And I think we should take the pictures of us together off the mantle. And you know what I'm calling the guys and Brit and Christina to come over tomorrow. If we have to go through this, so do they!" JC said getting up.
JC cringed as he heard the sound of Leo yapping while clawing at the door. JC rubbed his forehead and sat up in bed. He looked over next to him where Justin slept cuddled to JC's Sleepy stuffed animal. JC smiled to himself as he climbed out of bed. He causally made his way to the door which he opened quickly. Leo stumbled forward into the room and started running around JC.
"What Leo?" JC asked as he leaned over and picked up the dog in his hand. He brought the dog face to face with him a stared at him for a second before placing a kiss on the dog's forehead. He carried Leo in one arm while he made his way to the bed. He placed Leo down on the bed as he started to pick up a robe. He sat down on the bed and watched as Leo made his way to Justin's face. He started to lick Justin's face causing Justin to break a smile.
"You're awake!" JC laughed.
"Yeah I'm awake. I just wanted to sit here for a while and just rest." Justin replied.
"Well don't take too long. We still have to girl proof this house." JC replied. Justin gave a small pout before sitting up. He brought Leo into his lap while he looked around.
"Okay. Let's get this over with." Justin said as he got up.
"Okay! The den is locked! And that's the last of it." Justin said as he sat down on the couch, letting out a big sigh.
"Thank god. Now we just wait until Laura gets here." JC replied laying down on the couch resting his head on Justi's lap.
"Do you two want me to do anything else?" Tyler asked as he came down the stairs.
"Nope. I think we're set. Do you think that room is big enough?" Justin asked.
"It should be. Even with the TV, stereo, VCR, and the other crap we have in there you could still fit ten people comfortably. Ad there is only six girls right? So that's more than enough." JC replied. As he finished the doorbell rang throughout the house. Leo and Ozzie came running down the stairs as they yapped at the door. JC got up and answered the door.
"Hey JC." Laura said as she walked into the house. She gave him a quick kiss on the cheek before walking into the living room with the brown bags in her hands.
"Tyler!" Laura said as she placed down the bag and ran to Tyler.
"Hey Laura." Tyler laughed.
"Hello? What about your brother?" Justin asked as he held out his arms.
"I'm sorry Justin. I love you too." Laura said placing a small kiss on his cheek.
"Hello?! A little help here." Joey groaned as he carried in five brown bags as well as Laura's sleeping bag and duffel bag.
"Oh sorry Joe." JC said taking the sleeping bag out from under his arm, causing the rest of the bags to move out of his hands. Joey gave a glare at JC who gave him a small smile.
"Well I have a bunch of stuff in Mom's car still." Laura said.
"Okay I'm going. I'm going." Justin said getting up. JC and Justin headed out of the door while Joey got all the stuff in his arms again. Britney walked up the driveway with Christina following. They patted Joey on the back when they reached the door causing him to drop all the stuff once again.
"Sorry Joe." Christina said, placing a small kiss on his cheek.
"Oh that's what I need. A kiss. Instead of getting a helping hand I get a kiss." Joey complained once again starting to pick up all the bags.
"Watch out Joey. Leo is a little rambunctious today." Tyler said as he walked out of the door to help his brother and Justin.
"What?" Joey asked in confusion. He stepped forward tripping over Leo causing him to fall to the floor with all the bags.
"You know what? I'm giving up. I quit!" Joey said as he left all the bags on the floor and stomped into the living room.
"Fine Joey! If you're going to be selfish then me and Chrissy will do it." Britney said as she picked up all the bags along with the aide of Christina and took them into the kitchen.
"Hey everyone. We're here." Lance said as he walked in with Chris trailing. They closed the door and looked around a bit. They soon walked into the kitchen where everyone sat. JC sat on the counter behind Justin who was sitting on the countertop in front of him. Joey helped Jonathan color in his book while Tyler finished washing the dishes. Britney and Christina sat at the counter as they looked through a magazine.
"Hey you two. Did Marissa get home safely?" Justin asked.
"Yeah she's fine. Haven't seen that car yet. But I bet she's here somewhere stalking me." Lance said as he looked around.
"You've gone paranoid." JC laughed.
"Have not!" Lance laughed taking a seat at the counter.
"So when are the girls coming over?" Chris asked. The sound of the doorbell rang through the house. Immediately afterward the sound of someone running down the stairs was heard. Justin quickly hopped off of his spot leaned against the counter.
"Right about now." Joey replied. Laura soon walked into the kitchen with two girls following.
"Hey everyone you all know Suzy. But this is Jennifer." Laura introduced. Jennifer stood stupefied as she stared at them with awe.
"Hi Jennifer. My name's Justin." Justin said extending his hand. Jennifer stared at him with wide eyes. She looked down at his hand and then back at him. Justin let out a small laugh and backed away.
"Okay well Laura why don't you show Jennifer to the room you all will be staying in." Justin suggested. Laura nodded and started to guide Jennifer out of the kitchen. Justin pulled Suzy aside.
"Hey Suz. Make sure she doesn't hurt herself or anything." Justin whispered.
"No problem Justin." Suzy laughed as she ran after Laura and Jennifer. The doorbell rang once again.
"Here we go again." JC claimed.
Justin walked up stairs with four boxes of pizza in his hand. He climbed the stairs and walked down the hallway with Leo chasing behind. He knocked on a door and waited for an answer. Suzy opened the door and stepped aside as he walked in.
"Hey girls. I got you your pizzas. The top two are yours." Justin said walking up to Laura. Laura took the top two boxes and placed it in the middle of the circle they sat in. Justin looked around and saw four girls who were stunned by his appearance.
"Justin! Leave now!" Laura demanded.
"Hey you better treat me right before I send you back home to Mom and Paul." Justin said as he ruffled her hair.
"Well have fun. I'll be in my room. Drop by if you need anything. But don't forget to knock!" Justin enforced with his sister. Laura nodded and opened the door for Justin to walk out while carrying the top two boxes. Leo once again ran at his heels as they walked down the hall. Justin managed to open the door with his fingers and walked in. He saw everyone lounging around the room. Britney and Lance lounged on the bed while Christina took over the futon along with Tyler. Joey laid on the small white fur rug on the floor while Chris sat straddling the back of a chair. JC sat with his back against the bed while facing everyone else with Jonathan by his side.
"Chows on." Justin said placing the pizza boxes down on the floor in the middle of them all. Everyone quickly grabbed a couple of slices before returning back to their original spots to eat.
"So I was walking out of the kitchen when one of those girls started to scream her head off because she saw me eating an apple." Chris laughed.
"They are definitely weird." Joey laughed.
"Oh please they are regular teenage girls. Don't you remember sitting in your room and talking with your friend's about the celebrity you liked?" Britney defended.
"No my favorite celebrity was JC." Justin said before giving a small kiss to him.
"Sappy!" Joey yelled.
"Back off! It's cute." JC said before placing an arm around Justin's shoulder. Justin smiled before resting his head in the cradle of JC's arm.
"Well I remember my first celebrity crush. It was Winona Ryder." Lance voiced.
"Mine was. . . Debbie Gibson." Joey spoke.
"Mine was Tom Cruise." Christina smiled.
"Older men huh?" Chris smiled.
"I don't care how old he is. He was hot! Still is!" Christina said. Everyone let out a small laugh as the continued to eat. A loud screeching sound suddenly sounded. Justin looked around a bit before standing up. He walked to the window and saw a small cherry red car park outside.
"Lance? Danielle's car was cherry red right?" Justin asked. Lance nodded before walking to the window.
"Oh man she's here!" What the hell am I going to do?" Lance asked frantically.
"Lance it's not like she's a lunatic. She's not going to kill you. Just go talk to her." JC suggested. The door bell echoed throughout the house. Lance turned toward everyone else who sat quietly.
"Okay but will someone come with me?" Lance asked.
"I'll go." Justin volunteered.
Lance cautiously walked to the door and took a deep breathe. Justin laughed and patted him on the back.
"Lance it's cool. Don't worry. Just say to her calmly that you guys broke up and she should be able to leave you alone." Justin snickered. Lance nodded slowly before taking a hold of the door knob. He slowly opened the front door and stepped back a little. Justin and Lance looked outside and saw no one. Justin stepped outside and looked around the front yard.
"She's not here. Maybe she got the hint and left." Justin shrugged.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!" At the sound of the girls, Justin's head whipped up stairs. He closed the doors and ran up the steps with lance not far behind. Just threw open the door to the room which Laura and her friend's were staying in. He saw the terrified girls staring at the window at the other side of the room.
"What's wrong? Who's hurt?" JC asked as he ran up behind Justin while carrying a horrified Jonathan in his arms.
"What's wrong Laura?" Justin asked as he ran up to his sister.
"Some lady. Some frizzy haired lady was outside the window. She looked kind of like. . . Danielle." Laura said as she hugged her brother.
"She was looking through your window?" Lance asked.
"Yeah." Laura replied.
"That means she climbed the trellis outside and into the balcony." JC said as he walked in and looked outside the window. He left Jonathan with Laura before he carefully opened the door next to the window and stepped out onto the balcony. He was met by the chilly evening air. The sun had just gone down and the evening light was close to gone. He looked around before seeing a flower pot broken at the edge of the balcony. He walked back into the house before closing and locking the door. He made sure the windows in the room were locked as well.
"Okay someone was out there. Justin and Lance go and make sure all the doors and windows are locked downstairs. I'll go back and get the rest of the guys to lock the upstairs. And I'll have Britney and Christina come in here and make sure the girls are safe." JC said. Jonathan quickly jumped out of Laura's arms and hugged JC's leg. JC scooped him up and held him close.
" Okay will do." Lance said as he began to walk out of the room with Justin. JC walked out of the room and closed the door. he hit the light switch of the hall and made sure every light was on. He walked to his room and walked in.
"Hey you guys. Someone's around here spying on us through the windows. Joey, Chris, and Tyler can you make sure all the doors and windows are locked up stairs. And Britney and Christina can you go keep Laura and her friend's company. Cause I think they are a little scared. I'm going to call the police." JC said as he walked with Jonathan to the phone. Chris, Tyler, and Joey ran out of the room and began to scurry around the house. Britney and Christina walked out of the room and began to walk down the hall. JC picked up the phone and heard silence. No dial tone. Nothing. He clicked the receiver a few times and still heard nothing. He looked around the room slightly and watched as it grew darker. He heard the slight whimper of Jonathan who was terrified.
"It's okay Jonny. Shhhhh. . . I'm here. I won't let anything happen to you." JC said as he stood up. He walked around the room and made sure everything was locked. He stepped into the bathroom and locked the small window and looked up at the skylight. The moon shone down over the earth giving little light. JC quickly saw a shadow go across the glass of the skylight.
"She's on the freakin roof? This girl is nuts." JC whispered. He quickly walked out of the bathroom and left the room. JC ran down the stairs and heard Leo barking at the back door. He walked into the kitchen and saw Ozzie standing in front of the glass sliding door, barking at something outside. JC quickly made sure the door was locked and scooped Ozzie into his free arm.
"Okay bottom is all locked." Justin said as he walked up next to JC. Justin took Jonathan out of JC's arms before placing a small kiss on JC's chin.
"Okay living room is done." Lance said walking into the room with sweat dripping down his brow. He carried Leo in his arms while meeting with JC and Justin.
"Okay cool. Let's head to the girl's room." Justin said. They began to walk up the stairs and met up with Joey, Chris, and Tyler.
"Top's all locked." Joey replied.
"Okay cool." JC said walking toward the girls room. They walked in to the lighted room and saw the girls sitting as furthest away from the window as possible.
"Okay I have some bad news." JC announced. Suddenly the all the power went off. The lights all fell black. The TV lost it's pictures. The stereo stopped playing soft music. The girls let out a scream. Justin quickly yet cautiously moved to the window where he looked outside. The neighbors houses were still lit.
"And it just got worst." Justin replied.
"Okay let's not panic. I know there are candles and stuff in the closet directly across the hall. Thank god Justin made me put them there instead of the downstairs." JC said as he began to walk to the door.
"You can't go out there." Christina said.
"Yeah I can. The doors and windows are all locked. She's not in the house." JC replied.
"Well I'm going with you." Justin said as he walked to JC's side.
"No you're not." JC protested.
"Well if it's so safe then I can come with you." Justin retorted.
"Well it's not safe. She could be out there." JC said as he took Justin's hand. If a person who was standing next to them looked closely they would have probably seen the two holding hands but the girls were all in the dark (no pun intended) about what was going on.
"But you just said that she's not out there and the doors and windows are all locked." Justin replied.
"Oh shut up." JC replied.
"Well I don't care what you say I'm going out there to get the stuff. You can come with me if you want." Justin said opening the door. JC stayed closely behind Justin as they stepped into the hall. The door to the room closed behind them as they quickly walked across the hall to the small closet. Justin quickly opened it and searched through the shelves for the stuff.
"You know I could have done it myself." JC said as he searched the shelves himself.
"Yeah I know you could've, but I'm not leaving you alone for a second. If that bitch gets you I'm going to kick her ass so hard that she won't have to worry about losing Lance because she's. . ." Justin was stopped when he felt JC's lips press against his own. They kissed quickly before parting to look into each other's eyes.
"You're so cute. Even if I can't see you." JC snickered, as he turned back to the closet. JC rummaged around a bit before finding a box candles.
"I've got the candles." JC said.
"And I have a flashlight. Not where is that big box of matches I put in here?" Justin asked sticking his hand in the closet. JC stuck his hand in as well.
"AH!" Justin screamed as he jumped back.
"What?" JC asked worriedly.
"I felt a hand touch mine." Justin said as he tried to make out JC's figure in the darkness.
"Justin that was mine." JC replied.
"Oh. . . I knew that." Justin replied shyly, he quickly turned on the flashlight and pointed it into the closet.
"I knew that I should've done this sooner too." Justin replied before JC spoke. JC gave Justin a smile and pecked him on the cheek. Justin soon found the box of matches and held them up. JC closed the closet and rushed Justin back to the door. JC placed one last kiss on Justin's lips before opening the door. Justin walked in with the flashlight on.
It was half an hour later when Justin sat in partial light with his back propped against the wall facing the center of the room. JC sat next to him with a pillow resting on their interlaced fingers. Jonathan sat in Justin's lap resting his back against his brother's abs. Joey snoozed as did Britney and Chris. Christina sat with some of the girls as they talked around a lit candle. Laura slept with her back propped against the wall with her head resting on Tyler's shoulder. Tyler had placed his arm around her and wrapped a blanket around her. Lance laid down on his back in front of Justin and JC.
"Lance?" Justin asked.
"Yeah." Lance asked in return.
"If we get through this alive. You are calling her." Justin replied. Laura stirred a bit before betting her eyes open. She looked around and let out a big sigh.
"What's wrong Laura?" JC asked as he ran his fingers through her hair as an older brother would do. Laura lifted her head off of Tyler's shoulder and looked at JC.
"My sleepover's ruined." Laura sighed.
"Laura I know. And I'm sorry. It's just that you guys were caught in something at the wrong place and at the wrong time. But don't worry we'll make it up to you. I promise okay?" JC said kissing her on the forehead.
"I know. It's just I wish I didn't have a famous brother. I wish he was normal sometimes. Where my friend's could see him as just my cute older brother instead of Justin from `N Sync. Sometimes I'm glad he's famous because I got to know you and the rest of the guys and Britney and Christina but sometimes I just want you guys to be normal. There is no place on this earth where you guys can be normal." Laura said as she looked down. JC brought her into a hug with one arm.
"I know. We feel the same way at times. I guess this is the price of fame." JC said with a sigh.
"I guess." Laura said sadly.
"Hey well at least we can hook you up with free stuff." JC joked. Laura cracked a small smile.
"Oh My god!!!" Joey yelled as he jumped up from slumber.
"What?" Justin asked worriedly.
"I have Justin's cell phone in my pocket!!!" Joey yelled.
"Joey!!! You idiot! Get it out we can call the police." JC said. All of a sudden a crash was heard in the house. Leo and Ozzie stood up from their resting places and started to yap at the closed door.
"I think she's inside. Hurry get the phone and call the police." Lance yelled. They all heard the crunching of glass underneath someone's foot. The sound soon drowned into a steady foot step through the tiled floor in the kitchen.
"Hello? We need the Police!" Justin said into the phone. Justin quickly gave the number of the house. He hung up the phone and hopped onto his feet. He lifted Jonathan up and with him before placing him down in Tyler's arms. Justin went to the door and brought Ozzie and Leo away from the door. The girls all huddled away from the door now.
"Okay this can't be going on! This ahs to be like a joke or something. This is the kind of thing you see in scary movies. Not in real life." Chris rambled as he stood up.
"Well it is so shut up!" Joey said grabbing a hold of Chris's arm and pulling him down.
"Lance why don't you have a little talk with her?" Chris said pushing him toward the door.
"What? not me. I'm still young. You're older." Lance said as he grabbed Chris's arm and pushed him forward.
"You know in two seconds she's going to be coming through that door and she's going to be carrying god knows what weapon. If you two are too scared to stand up against her than I will." JC said standing up.
"Okay!" Lance and Chris said as they went and hid in the corner. JC looked at them in shock and looked at the door. He swallowed as the steps went down the hall and back to their door. He heard the steps outside of the door and knock softly. JC wiped the sweat from his forehead before standing back.
"Hello?" A voice asked as a lady poked her head into the room.
"Ma?!" Justin asked from the back of the room.
"Yes Justin. Why are you guys sitting in candle light. Did you know that your circuit breakers were off. I turned them on for you." Lynn said as she flipped the switch back on. The room was soon filled with light causing everyone to groan from the brightness.
"How did you get in here?" Justin asked.
"I used my key." Lynn said holding up her keys.
"What was that breaking sound we heard?" Joey questioned.
"Oh I broke a glass in the kitchen." Lynn replied as she started to tidy up the room.
"Wait we saw a woman in the window that looked like Danielle." Laura protested.
"And She had frizzy hair?" JC asked.
"Yeah." One of the girls replied. JC looked at her for a second and then smiled. He walked over to her and brought her to the window.
"Is that your woman?" JC asked.
"Yeah that's her? It was only Jennifer! She doesn't look like Danielle at all." Suzy said.
"What about my broke flower pot." Justin pointed out.
"Oh. . .well. . . that was kinda our fault. I kind of knocked it over when out there." Laura replied.
"Wait but what about the phone's being dead?" Justin asked.
"Yeah!" JC said.
"No they aren't I called someone downstairs." Lynn replied. Okay what about the cherry red car?" Lance asked as she got up. He walked out of the room with Justin following. They went into Justin's bedroom and looked out the window. The two saw their neighbor getting into the cherry red car and driving away.
"We're stupid and look. JC must have unplugged it when he was trying to call." Justin said holding up the phone wire.
"The shadows JC told me about must have been a bird or something and Leo and Ozzie were probably barking at something in the back yard." Lance said with a sigh.
"Wow I'm glad we didn't do something like call the poli. . ." Justin stopped when he heard sirens come down the street.
Justin let out a sigh as he walked into his bedroom. He closed the door behind him and locked the door. He heard Leo and Ozzie playfully yapping at each other while he saw JC pull back the covers to the bed. JC was dressed in a pair of pajama bottoms that accented his firm tight abs well. Justin smiled to him self while he adjusted the wire rimed glasses on his nose. He made his way over to the bed and crawled on top of the bed and laid down while JC sat up. He took the remote to the TV in his hands and turned it on. Justin rested his head on JC's shoulder as he cuddled closer to JC. Justin casually tangled his legs with JC's. JC placed a small kiss on the top of Justin's head before turning his face back to the TV. He lifted the arm that Justin was cuddled to and placed it around Justin's shoulder.
"You know you were very brave today." Justin said tilting his head up to look at JC's face.
"What? When?" JC asked with a laugh. Justin leaned up and placed a small kiss on JC's chin.
"When we were in the room before my mom walked in. You had no clue it was her and yet you still stood up for everyone." Justin replied as he slowly started to trace shapes on JC's bare chest.
"Well I'd do anything to protect the one's I love. Especially you." JC replied as he brought Justin closer.
"I love you so much." Justin whispered, placing small kiss on JC's collar bone.
"I love you too. You have no clue how bad I want to hold you forever." JC responded, running his fingers through Justin's curls. The two snuggled together and continued to watch the TV.
"I don't wanna watch this. I think there might be an episode of `Friends' or something on." Justin said taking control of the remote.
"Excuse you rudeness." JC laughed as he reached for the remote. Justin pulled his arm back just in time for JC to miss the remote. JC soon let go of Justin and reached for the remote with a longer arm. Justin hid the remote behind his back and watched with amusement while JC got up into a crawling position. JC looked down at Justin and smiled. He leaned down and placed a small kiss on Justin's lips before starting to tickle him. Justin started to twist and turn in laughter while JC tickled him. JC stopped and looked won at Justin as he laughed with joy. Justin realized the tickling had stopped and looked up at JC. Their eyes connected and they were drawn together by an invisible force. Their lips met softly as they shared the secret kiss.
"Justin?" they heard a soft voice. JC stopped and turned around to see Jonathan standing in the doorway with Britney standing behind him with a grin plastered across her face.
"Yeah Jonny?" Justin asked as he pushed JC out of the way so he could see his brother.
"I had a bad dream. There was this monster and he ate Joey and Lance and then Chris hit him in the nose but he got mad and ate him too. And he was after you too and he almost caught you and he had yellow teeth and green hair and he looked like Mommy when she wakes up in the morning." Jonathan explained. Britney, JC and Justin chuckled at the boys explanation.
"Brit. How did you get in here? I locked that door." Justin asked.
"I picked it. It's amazing what a girl can do with a few bobby pins." Britney smiled as she held up a bobby pin. Justin smiled and looked at JC who laughed to himself.
"Okay Jonny come on up. Hop in." Justin replied.
"You know you spoil him silly. When I was a kid my mommy would make us stick the dream out." Britney said coming in and crashing on the futon. Leo jumped onto the futon and nuzzled up to here.
"Ohh!!! Leo is getting his spots!" Britney cooed.
"Excuse me. Do you mind. Justin and I were kind of in a private moment here. We haven't been able to be together for the whole day." JC whined.
"Oh please. You can till make out and stuff. You just can't make those moaning noises that interrupt me while I'm watching TV." Britney said as she pointed to the TV. She gave the couple a cheesy smile before watching the TV again.
"Hey!! It's the MTV Movie awards. My Freddie was there. And Oh Look there's you Justin. Wow what the hell did you do to your hair?" Britney questioned.
"I put it in rows. What's wrong with it? Josh liked them." Justin retorted.
"You look like ghetto wannabe. It's weird enough that you try and dress like you're a thug but the hair? Please!" Britney teased.
"Hey I only dress thugish in public." Justin replied. Britney turned back to the TV just in time to see Freddie kiss Sarah Michelle Ghellar. Justin saw the kiss and then turned to Britney. Britney sat there in shock as she watched Freddie. Justin saw a single tear fall from her eye.
"Brit? Are you okay?" Justin asked as she stood up from the bed. Britney wiped the tear form her eye and placed a smile on.
"Yeah I'm fine." Britney said calmly. You know I really don't want to watch TV anymore. You two have fun. Don't stay up too late. I'll see you tomorrow morning." Britney said giving them a smile before leaving. Justin watched the door close.
"Remind me to talk to her tomorrow morning." Justin said.
"Okay sweety." JC softly. Justin looked back at JC who was now lifting Jonathan into his arms carefully. The boy snoozed softly while JC adjusted himself under the covers. Justin helped adjust the pillows behind his neck and got in himself. JC laid on his side while he looked down at Jonathan who slept peacefully between Justin who was laying sideways as well. JC looked up at greeted Justin's eyes.
"God you are so beautiful." JC whispered.
"I love you baby." Justin replied.
"And I love that accent of yours. I love everything about you." JC said leaning in for a kiss. Justin kissed JC softly their lips met and wrestled each other. The two soon felt a small hand press against their faces. Justin and JC separated and looked down at Jonathan who pushed them apart with a smile.
"Your gonna give each other cooties." Jonathan claimed. Justin laughed and kissed his brother on the forehead.
"Okay goodnight buddy." Justin said as he pulled the covers around Jonathan more.
"We should head to bed too." JC announced.
"Yeah I guess so." Justin replied. JC took Justin's glasses off his face and folded them up he placed them on the nightstand and turned of the lights. He leaned back in and pressed a small goodnight kiss on Justin's lips before laying on his side of Jonathan. The two laid on there sides facing each other as they fell asleep together. Their fingers linked together of the sleeping boy.
