Chapter 2:

I looked around the room that would be home for the next two weeks. Well at least I can walk around instead of being confined to a bed. However I found out that walking was a little difficult after being in bed for a week. After falling twice, I decided to stay in bed until I had some help. A few minutes later a small black lady came in and introduced herself as Donna. I will be you therapist she said. Trying to be funny I said a counselor for the counselor and laughed. She either did not find it funny or missed what I meant, so I decided to explain it. I am a substance abuse counselor. Oh she replied, two different avenues here. You and I will work on brain skills. Oh I get it I said, you are going to find out what cells don't work and what new ones do, huh, I said rather smartly. Basically, she replied. Can I get a walker I asked, why she asked, well I replied, I am having trouble standing on my own and I want to get up and move around. I will see what I can do, she said and then she was gone. A little later I noticed some activity outside my room and a stretcher was at the door, when I looked over all I saw was the most unique set of green eyes I have ever seen. I felt like I was being drawn into them and they were seeing my soul. I looked a little better and saw the face . they were attached to. He was the cutest guy I have ever seen, and I gasped. He must have heard me because he smiled at me. I said I'm Tam and he replied I'm Lance. They moved him away after that and I fell back on the bed and though what are you doing you fool, that is a guy. But there was something I could not place that drew me to him. I had to know more about this guy.


Once Lance was settled in his room all he could think about was the guy he had seen in the room next door. The guy was simple amazing to him. Deep blue eyes and salt and pepper hair, and I very friendly and loving face. Lance was amazed at how fast a stranger could have that kind of effect on him. Nobody other than JC have effected him that way. I want to get to know this guy Lance decided and when the nurse entered Lance decided to tell the nurse what Dr. Daniels had asked him to do. Miss, Lance began slowly, Dr. Daniels asked me to check on a patient he sent here earlier today and to work with him on some musical things and I was wondering if you knew where he was. What is his name she asked? Tam Taylor, Lance replied. That's easy she said, he is right next door. You were parked in front of his room when you got here, and with that Lance went totally pale. Next door, Lance asked? Yep he is trying to get settled, I can introduce you if you like, she said. I'll wait until tomorrow Lance replied.


I got my walker and decided to go for a stroll, I was moving down one hall that seemed to be deserted, in the last room on the hall I found the music room, I went in and there was a beautiful piano sitting there. I walked over and sat down, I sighed and said, how I wish I could play your pretty lady. I decided for fun to try, after all Dr. Daniels said my creative center had been jolted. As my hands drifted over the keys a melody came to me I heard playing on the radio, I could not remember the title but the words and melody was the most beautiful thing I had heard. Soon I was playing the song and singing the words.

You'll never know what you've done for me

What your faith in me has done for my soul

You'll never know the gift you've given me

I'll carry it with me

Through the days ahead, I'll think of days before

You taught me to run, you taught me to fly

Help me to free the me inside

Helped me hear the music of my heart

Helped me hear the music of my heart

You opened my, eyes, you opened the door

To something I've never known before

And you love is the music of my heart

You were the one always on my side

Always standin' by, seeing me through, ooh

You were the song that always made me sing

I'm singing this for you

Everywhere I go I'll think of where I've been

And of the one who knew me better

Than anyone ever will again

You taught me to run, you taught me to fly

Help me to free the me inside

Helped me hear the music of my heart

Helped me hear the music of my heart

You opened my, eyes, you opened the door

To something I've never known before

And you love is the music of my heart

What you taught me

Only your love could ever teach me

You got through when no one could ever reach me before

'Cause you always saw in me all the best that I could be

It was you who set me free

You taught me to run, you taught me to fly

Help me to free the me inside

Helped me hear the music of my heart

Helped me hear the music of my heart

You opened my, eyes, you opened the door

To something I've never known before

And you love is the music of my heart

Is the music of my heart

(Music of my heart, by NSYNC and Gloria Estefon)


Lance was getting restless and decided to go for a walk, he had a lot on his mind, his current handicapped self and this guy Tam Taylor. As Lance wandered the halls he heard a very good piano player somewhere on the hall he was on. When Lance got closer to the room he recognized the song immediately. Who could be playing one of their songs and that one in particular. It had only been released about 3 months and he didn't realize any sheet music for the song was out yet. When Lance reach the room, there sat playing the piano the man that Lance was constantly thinking about. Lance leaned against the wall and listened to the music and the voice that was singing their song. Without realizing it Lance started singing his part of the song with Tam. Lance was lost in the music and did not realize that the music had stopped.


I began to hear another voice with mine and I just stopped, when I turned around on the bench, there stood the guy with the green eyes, I am seriously racking my brain for the name, then it just came out my mouth. Lance?

Lance jumped at the sound of his name and realized he had been caught. I am sorry Lance said, I heard you playing and ended up down here. You play well. Thanks I replied, I did not know I could. I guess I should introduce myself I said, My name Is Tam Taylor, I stuck out my hand and he took it and lightning struck. I have never felt that much energy pass between two people before. I think he felt it to because he quickly said I am Lance, Lance Bass. My heart stopped. Lance Bass, Lance Bass of NSYNC. I am not that lucky. So being the dumb ass I am I asked him, Lance Bass of NSYNC? He grinned and that was it for me I was hooked by this guy, he shook his head yes and I passed out.


When I came to I was in my room and Lance and my nurse were right there, Donna told me and Lance I was fine, It was most likely a system shutdown due to the stress of the day. When Donna left I smiled weakly at Lance and said I am sorry Lance, I realize that was the last thing you needed was for you to tell me who you were and me then pass out. Lance smiled and said, its OK I was not expecting you to know who I was. Well I confess I am a 32 year old who likes pop music. I have been listening to you guys, BSB, savage garden and others for about a year. My late wife hated the music but the kids loved it. I realized what I said and I just lost it. I started crying and Lance just wrapped me up in a great big hug. I have never felt so protected and safe as I did then. As I was able to bring my self under control, I looked up into his eyes and before I could stop myself I kissed him. We both surrendered to the kiss the Lance pulled back and left the room. I died then, I turned over in the bed and pulled the covers over my head and cried myself to sleep.
