Prince vs. Princess Chapter 2 GeberaDaisy22@yahoo.com
Hi again. Thank you to the one person who wrote. I'm glad you enjoy my story. I'm having fun writing it (most of the time anyway, the other 99% of the time I'm pulling my hair out). I know I'll regret saying this, but I am going to try to send in a new chapter every Monday. Just wanted to let you know.
Again... and yes I'm begging here... please write me with your comments. Good and bad. I'm very open to criticism. As the story goes on I may need some help deciding what direction to take it in and I will ask you all to let me know what you think. This story really doesn't have a specific ending, ok, so it has no ending. I'm making it up as I go along and there is no ending in my mind right now.
Disclaimer: This story is a complete work of fiction. I have no connection to any of the celebrities in this story. I do not know their sexual preference. Again... This story is a COMPLETE work of fiction. If you are offended by slash stories, please leave. If you are not old enough to be reading this story, please leave. Ok, I think that covered everything.
Enjoy... ***************************************************************************** Chapter 2
As Britney was getting ready for her first "official" date with Lance she couldn't stop thinking about Justin. She hadn't been able to put that one comment aside. Justin had seemed fine... right up until she had mentioned Lance. After that all he said was, "Not him, Britney. Please, anyone but Lance." She'd never seen anyone completely breakdown before, but with those few words Justin had. She had seen it in his eyes. That second kept playing in slow motion through her mind. It had kept her up at night.
Britney had always thought of herself as a decent person. She loved to see people smile. But now, for the first time in her life, she couldn't bare to look in the mirror. She was afraid of what she would find hidden inside herself.
She couldn't, for the life of her, figure out exactly why Justin had broken down. All she knew was that she was responsible for it. It had been a week since their break-up and he seemed fine, but that sparkle that was in his eyes is gone. Lance couldn't see the change, but she did.
"Stop it!" She told herself. "Just focus on tonight. On Lance." With that all thoughts of Justin slipped from her mind. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In a room down the hall Lance was also preparing for the night. He couldn't believe how well things had turned out. He had thought, at the very least, Justin would be a bit cold towards him, but Justin's attitude hadn't changed at all. In fact, it seemed as if they had gotten closer in the past week. Justin always had a smile for him and they had so much fun just joking around. Britney kept saying that something with Justin was off, that the light in his eyes was gone. Lance looked for the slight change, but couldn't see it. Lance knew those eyes, he used to study them, couldn't get enough of them.
About a year ago Lance had thought he was in love with Justin. He didn't believe his luck that he was such close friends with America's heart throb. Lance soon realized he was just having the same reaction to Justin that the teenies had. He had fallen in love with the image, not the person.
Lance shook his head and smiled. "I went from being in love with the prince of pop to the pop princess." He chuckled to himself. Not many people would get to experience that one.
Lance was proud of his preference. He'd never hidden the fact that he was bisexual from the guys. Actually, he'd never really hidden it from anybody, they'd just never asked. Johnny and the others knew he'd never deny it, and they didn't ask him to.
"If only everyone could be open about love." Lance thought to himself as he made one last check in the mirror and headed out the door. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In yet another room in that hallway sat Justin. He knew they were going out tonight. He also knew that he had to work fast if he was gonna get what he wanted.
He thought back to the moment he first knew he was in love with Lance. He had asked Justin to meet him at the dance studio early to work on the routine for "Space Cowboy". For some reason Lance just couldn't figure it out. After about 20 minutes, when they finally thought he was getting it down, Lance landed on his butt. At first they were both silent, then Lance just broke down into laughter. Justin remembered Lance was laughing so hard that tears were rolling down his cheeks. The moment Justin started laughing he knew he was in love. They were laughing so hard they ended up laying on the floor. After about 15 minutes they were both gasping for air and their bellies hurt. Before Justin had a chance to make a move the other guys walked in.
Ever since then Justin had pushed those feelings aside. He couldn't bring himself to admit that he had feelings for another man. He kept telling himself it was just the situation that temporarily caused those feelings. But in the back of his mind it was always there, nagging him. When Britney had told him that Lance and her were in love those feelings had rushed forward so quickly he had almost passed out. Justin didn't know why he had said what he did, but he had. He was relieved that Britney hadn't questioned it and instead had just left. He couldn't break down in from of her. Not over this.
How was he going to show Lance how he felt without hurting her? Justin knew he needed help on this one so he picked up the phone and called the only person who knew there was a problem. As Justin waited for an answer he prayed that Chris would be able to help. ******************************************************************************
