Previously on 'La Vita e Bella':
"They don't want me to live in here anymore," I cried, "because I'm a criminal." The others started to help us too. They looked so guilty by now after hearing what I said.
"So where do you wanna stay now?" the spiky blond one asked me. I just shook my head no.
"Please stay with me?" Justin jumped in.
"No thanks. I don't want to start another trouble again, I had enough." I said to him, as I stood up and carried my stuff.
"DAVE, PLEASE?" Justin held my hand, "I should tell you the truth, I caused all of this, please give me one more change to fix it?"
"Yeah let us help you," the red hair said.
"Guys, moving from one place to another, is not a new thing for me. I'm getting used with it." I explained, "I better go now, see you all."
I left them as I had a problem with my big suitcase, I noticed that Justin let some tears again as he saw me leaving him and his mates. I just smiled at him, I know that this is the right thing to do. I meant, we came from different world, he is rich and famous, and I am no body.

Chapter 9: Somebody Already Broke My Heart
"No! Please stay with me," Justin ran and stood in front of me, "Please?" he begged me, "I caused all of this."
"I'll be okay," I replied softly, "I told you about my past life, right? I can take care of myself."
"I know that, but I can forgive myself for causing all of this. Please at least stay in my place until you find a permanent place to live," Justin looked at me with full of hope.
"Justin, you do know the news around about me, if they found out that I'm staying with you, that would be their next headline news. I can't deal with that anymore," I explained.
"Don't worry, I deal with that. Right, lance?" Justin asked his friend, he just nodded, "we will keep it as secret as possible. Please?"
"I don't know," I looked the ground as I uncertain.
"Looks, Dav. You know what time it is now, you can't find any place to rent this late. Just stay with us, and we will help you to find place to stay. Just say, it's our apologize for causing this matter," JC spoke out, the others nodded for agreement.
"What about your parents?" I looked at them.
"My mom won't mind with it, please stay?" Justin assured me. I was silent and kept thinking whether to accept their offer or not.
"you all will keep bugging me if I say no, won't you?" I smiled at them.
"Absolutely!" Joey replied and I laughed a little.
"Okay, I accept your offer and I will stay temporarily," I smiled a little.
"Thank you," Justin hugged me all sudden and still crying.
"Why are you still crying?" I asked him.
"Nothing," as he broke up his hugged.
"Okay let's go! It's freezing out here," Chris said as he helped me with my suitcase.
We all walked back to their car, and they introduced themselves to me, as I rarely knew them. Meanwhile, Justin didn't say much on the road, I think he was still blaming himself for all the trouble.
After half an hour or so, we finally arrived at Justin's house, it was the biggest house I'd ever stepped. It was 21:30. Again, I felt awkward staying in a huge mansion.
"Justin! Is it you?" a voice came out from one of the room, then I saw a woman came out from that room. "I tried to call you but...," she stopped as she saw me.
I really didn't know what to do or say but I managed to smile a little to her. I also wondered, why the others just kept silent. Finally, Justin broke the silent.
"Mom, I need to talk to you in your room, please?" Justin took his mom hand and dragged her back to her room, "Dave, why don't you have a sit, and guys, I'll be right back." His mom still looked at me in discomfort stares.
"Come on! Sit," Lance asked me to sit, I just nodded.
Then we all sat in a couch, and no one started the conversation.
"Drink!" Joey shouts all sudden, "Let me take some drink, wait, okay?"
"Thanks Joey," Chris said.
"So are you guys also staying in here?" I asked them.
"Just JC, but we use to sleep over in here. There must be someone to crash this place," Chris joked, I just giggled a little.
"So Dave, tell me more about you, Justin told us a little," Lance asked
"What did he tell you?" I frowned
"near to nothing, he just told us how you two met," Lance replied
"I see. Well nothing really important and it's a long story. I won't make Joey bored with my tales," I joked.
"Hey! I'm a good listener too," he protested while other laughed, then I looked the clock on the wall, it'd been 15 minutes that Justin and his mom had conversation, I looked back at the guys.
"Do you think his mom let me to stay?" I asked them, they were just silent.
"I'm sure, Justin is a good talker," JC smiled at me as put his hand on my shoulder to comfort me.
At the same time, I saw Justin and his mom coming out from the room. Usually I can read people mind from their face, but I couldn't do it this time.
"Hi Dave! Justin told me the whole thing," she smiled a little, "I'm Justin's mom," she offered her hand to introduce herself, I replied her handshake.
"Nice to meet you, ma'am." I replied.
"Please call me, Lynn. Don't be so formal, you guys must be tired hey?" she looked at the guys, "why don't you guys go to bed, if you are still hungry, you can got to the kitchen for foods,"
"Thanks mom," Justin kissed his mom.
"Dave, Justin will show your room. You can stay here until you find a permanent place to stay." She said as she left us. I didn't know whether it is just me or her voice was sound unfriendly to me. However I didn't say anything about it.
"Justin, I'm hungry," Chris whimpered.
"Why don't you guys go to the kitchen and prepare some food, I'll show Dave his room, and we will join you all in a moment. Come on, Dave. Let's go upstairs." He helped me with my bag. I just nodded and followed him from behind. In the middle of the stairs, his mom showed up.
"O Justin, Britney called you when you were gone." Lynn relay the message.
"Thanks mom," Justin replied as he kept walking.
Justin took me into a quite large room, everything is so neat and tidy and also white. Justin sat on the bed.
"This is your room, if you need anything, my room is just across from yours. Please make yourself comfortable, okay?" he asked me and I just nodded.
"hmm Justin, is your mom okay with all of this, I mean, I don't want to make any problem to anyone. I can just find another place to stay," I asked him.
"Dave, My mom doesn't have a problem with it. I even don't have a problem if you want to stay in here forever," Justin assured me.
"I can't do that man," I replied then there was a long silent from both of us.
"Dave, I'm so sorry, I.," he stopped.
"Please forget it, it was all in the past," I sat beside him.
I didn't know why but a small tear fell from his blue eyes, I felt sorry for him, I'm sure that he didn't mean to lie to me. I wiped his tear away.
"Please don't cry, I am not mad at you." I smiled to him as he looked at me, "I think, the others are waiting for us downstairs," finally I saw a smile back on his face.
"Okay, I'm hungry too," he said then I helped him to stand up.
FEW DAYS LATER
It had been 3 days that I'd lived in Justin's house. I tried my best to look around for cheap accommodation, somehow it was so weird, when I called the landlords the unit is available, but when I went there with the lads, it's already occupied. I have a feeling that Justin and his mates had something to do with this, but I have no proof.
The good thing is that I really had a long with the guys, even with Justin's brother, Jonathan. They really threat me like their own family. In contrast, Justin's mom didn't feel comfortable with me, I just could feel it, she rarely talked to me.
"Justin, I have to get out from here. I don't want to be a burden for you or your mom," I explained.
"Come on, you are really not a burden for us, please stay." He looked at me in the eyes.
"This is just so weird, Jus. I mean, you know my story, somehow I have the feeling that I'm not belong in here," I looked down to avoid his stare but he lifted me face up again.
"Everything is always weird, but I don't want you to leave me. You saved me that night, you were taking care of me, at least, let me repay for your kindness," Justin sighed.
"You don't owe me anything," I shook my head no.
"You can say whatever you want, but the truth is that," he paused, "I have feeling for," I stopped his mouth with my fingers.
"No! No! No! This is wrong!"
"I know!" he took my finger away from his mouth, "I don't know what it is but, somehow, I feel connected to you,"
"Please, you just confuse. You know my history. I am not the one for you." I let a small tear fell and my hands were shaking.
"Why do you lie to yourself, Dave? Please don't tell me that you don't have something towards me," he tried to hold his tears.
"Please don't do this to me," I tried to hide my face, "I do like you, Justin, it's just..."
"JUSTIN! HONEY! WHERE ARE YOU?" I heard Lynn's voice from inside, "Britney comes to see you," then I saw Lynn with a beautiful blond girl, Justin wiped his tears right away.
"Justin!" the blond girl hugged him from behind, and kissed him, "it's been a long time," then Justin turned around, "hey, are you okay?"
"yeah, it's just something stuck in my eye, I need a teardrop." Justin smiled to her, "Oh yeah, I need to introduce you to my best friend, David." Then he looked at me, "David, this is Britney Spears."
"Nice to meet you," I said to her.
"Oh, so you are David. I saw you on TV," she commented regarding the kidnapping.
"Knock it off, B. It was a mistake," Justin defended me.
"Dave, can you help me to clean some dishes in the kitchen? They need some privacy," Lynn told me.
"Of course," I replied as I left both of them alone as I followed Lynn. I managed to look at Justin one last time and at the same time he looked at me too. Not even five seconds, Britney took his face and deeply kissed him.
As Lynn were preparing for dinner, I clean all the plates and utensils. There were not a lot of talks between Lynn and me in the kitchen. All sudden, she came to me.
"Dave, can you help me to buy these stuff from the supermarket nearby?" she gave me a piece of paper with long list on it.
"Sure," I smiled as I took the list and money, I aware that the supermarket nearby is like 4 blocks away.
I left the house as I was heading to the supermarket, the thing is no public transport passing this luxury area therefore I had to walk. It was just 5 minutes walk, then a Jeep stop near me.
"David! Where are you going?" a guy calling me loudly.
"Hi JC! Lynn asks me to buy some stuffs from supermarket," I replied from his window car.
"But it's like 4 blocks away man," JC surprised.
"That's okay, I can walk," I told him.
"Let me take you, come on!" he offered me.
"No, that's not necessary, I won't bother you." I rejected.
"OO please, I have nothing to do, quick! Jump in," he insisted, I saw genuine sincerely from him, so I accepted.
"Thanks man," as I closed the door and sat next to him, "Nice car, JC."
"Thanks, love this baby," he giggled, "Is Justin home?" he asked me as he was driving.
"Yeah, with Britney," I replied, then JC looked at me, I just smiled a little to him. "Are you okay?" I asked as he was quite in an instant.
"Yeah, I'm okay," he replied sortly.
"You have something, haven't you?" I tried to persuade him to talk.
"Have you ever feeling lonely, Dave?" he asked.
"Since I was a little," I replied.
"How come?" he confused.
"My parents left me and my sister, then my sister left me," I answered.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to," JC apologized.
"You don't have to sorry about it," I assured him, "so why are you asking me?" after a long silent.
"I feel like, I'm missing something. I see my friends, all of them has someone already. Justin and Lance have their girlfriend already; Joey and Chris, they also have eyes on someone too." He stopped, "I look at them, they look happy, when they are talking about their girlfriend, somehow I feel kinda left out, ya know?" he gasped.
"So why don't you look for girlfriend like your friend?" I asked him, "I mean you are famous, smart, rich and not forget to mention, good looking." JC finally giggled as I said 'good looking', then he was quite again and took a deep breath.
"The thing is...it's not that simple," he replied softly, "and I want to have someone who understand me, the real Joshua Chasez, not because I'm JC's 'the famous, smart, and rich' from Nsync." Somehow it was leading to a real deep situation.
"You miss the 'good looking' one," I tried to create a joke, and he did laugh a little.
"Okay! Okay! Good looking," he said it proudly and smiling.
"I'm sure, you will meet someone, who is suitable for you," I continued, then he stopped smiling.
"Dave, if you are in my position, it is so impossible," then he stopped his car as we finally in front of the supermarket. "Okay, we are here."
They were not many people in the supermarket that time, so JC could tag along without problem of screaming fans. He helped me with the list, after half an hour, we completed all the list. Thanks God, JC helped me, I mean, the whole list was so damn heavy.
"Thanks man for helping with the list," I thanked him.
"Hey, not a biggie," he replied as he started the engine, "Are you hungry?"
"Not really,"
"Do you want to eat something before going back?" he asked me
"I think, Lynn already made dinner for us, probably they are waiting for us," I reminded him.
"I'm not in the mood of dinner with them, I think they are okay," JC shrugged, "I know a great place to eat, okay?"
"Up to you," I shrugged.
He bought some burgers with a lot of fries, plus two large cokes, then he took me to a park. We could see when the sun is actually gone bit by bit as the sky is getting dark. We both could get along really, we made jokes and fun to each other's. Then we both were quite as the stars and moon are showing on the horizon. I don't know what happened but all sudden, some tears were running down from his face.
"JC, are you okay?" I asked him as I'm getting worried about him.
"I'm afraid, Dave. I am so afraid," I heard his trembling voice, "Am I going to die alone?"
"JC, what are you saying?" I was shock by his comment.
"I'm not going to find someone, then I will live alone for the rest of my life," he looked down. I came to him and hugged him to comfort him.
"JC, you won't live alone, you have your family, and you have four best pals. They care about you, I do care about you too. Please, don't have such a though that you are going to die alone." I said, "you have a long life in front of you, you will meet someone." I broke our hug. "Don't be scared, okay?"
He finally nodded lightly. I still couldn't get it how he could get such an idea, somehow I got a feeling that he is hiding something big, but I won't push him to tell me what it was. Since it was nearly 8pm, I asked him to go back.
"JC, it is nearly 8 o'clock, can we go?" I looked at him.
"Sure," he stood up, "by the way, Thanks for everything, Dave."
"I told you, you are not alone," I replied and he smiled, "Wait!" I came to him, he looked at me wondering, I put my hand on his chin, "There is a sauce on your chin," then I wiped it, "Let's go."
JC was stunned as I did that, he must be thinking something else, then he laughed reallyy loud. I was laughing really hard to join him. It was 8:20pm, JC and I made it to Justin's house, I grabbed some groceries bags, while JC helped me with the others. As I entered the house,
"WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN?!?" I heard a yelling.
