I dont know the true sexuality of Nick Lachey or any other celebrities mentioned here after. This story is fiction. If your under 18 you should not be here, or reading this.
He was shy at first and looked down at his lap. "I have a lot of ideas, but they range everywhere." He was hesitant not wanting to do anything that would decrease his chance of landing a deal with them. "As in?" A small man at the end of the table spoke up with attitude. He did not like John and did not want to see him on his label. "Well some rock songs, Party Anthems, Songs you can dance too, sexy pop songs. Id like it to be a diverse album, One that cant have a single genre." John said loudly letting his fear and shy be pushed ot the side. He did not want to face that small man again either. "You go it" The head said, she had a smile on her face the first to show emotion out of the bunch. "Really!?" John jumped from his chair in a sudden movement shocking many. She nodded with a grin and watched him jump with happiness. "Well have the contract ready by next week."
"Thank you so much Nick!" John grabbed Nick and pulled him into a powerful hug and laughed into his ear. The feeling was overwhelming for Nick as John hugged him tightly. He felt himself melt with the touch of him and never wanted it to end when John pulled away. His pants also felt a bit smaller, especially in the crotch area. He shook hands with a few people around the table, hugging Lisa the head of new artists, the one who had helped him so much.
When John went to shake her hand also she pulled him into a hug. "Were family here." She whispered into his ear. She let him go and smiled grabbing a binder off the table. She flipped through a few pages and stopped at a page towards the middle. "John, Were really pushing to get our new artists out there, and our main office is in New York. Would you be able to fly out there in a few days?" She asked, business etched on her face. He nodded gently smiling with thoughts of time square and rockafella center. "She skimmed through her book some more and pointed to something she scribbled in. "Well pack your bags, and get ready for a red eye flight thursday night. She said handing him two plane tickets. He smiled but noticed there was two tickets, and only one of him. He grabbed the one and left the second in her hand. "Why two?" He said, while she still held the second to him. "For family or a friend." She said happily with a smile. John hesitantly took the second one and smiled. "A driver will be there to escort you to the hotel and to Jive." She said closing her binder and getting ready to leave. He pulled her into a hug one more time before letting her go. "Thank you so much." He said gently watching her leave.
"I cant believe this all Nick, this is crazy. None of this would have happened without your help." John turned to Nick as he looked down at his shoes, with a grin. He looked up at him and shook his head gently. His smile seemed to touch both ends of his face, "John you deserve this. Your voice is amazing, and that drive you have is unbelievable. Your personality is also nothing like anyone else around here. Your a nice caring person and that shows." His cheeks were now beat red and he wondered why he had just said that to him. John smiled and extended his hand, "Will you go to New York with me?" His blood rushed and his heart beat at a racing speed. His face instantly light up but when his brain started functioning again it lost its luster. He shook his head giving the ticket back to John. "John I cant take this ticket, you have family and friends who you could take. I've been to New York hundreds of times." The ticket sat in his hand still, John didn't take it from him, nor did he look away from his eyes. "No Nick I want you to come with me. I really don't have anyone else." John said grinning lightly. He wanted Nick to go. New York with Nick by his side would be amazing. Even if he was just his friend. Nick gave him a questioning look and John just smiled for a yes. Nick took the ticket and slid it into his wallet. He wondered why he was so excited about going to New York with John...
It was the next night, almost even morning. The sky was dark and light rain fell from the clouds. His hair sat on his head wet as he shook his coat under a over hang. A large black bag sat to his side as he looked at his watch constantly. Last time it was 11:23, There flight left at 1 a.m. A horn kick jumped his senses, as a black limo drove to his side. John walked out in pajamas and messy hair. "Sorry..." He smiled walking to the trunk to grab his bag. Nick shook his head gently and giggled. He grabbed his bag and waited for John. The driver opened the trunk and grabbed his bag. "Thanks Tony." John handed him a 20 dollar bill and walked over to Nick. They walked in the revolving doors and set down their bags to the side. Nick was soaked, he had been waiting outside in the rain for 15 minutes. He took off his jacket and shook the rain off gently, "I like that jacket." John said gently. Nick looked at the dark brown jacket with interest. Vanessa had bought him that jacket for christmas last year. He had just like how comfortable it was but now noticed it was good looking too. "Thanks." His cheeks were getting red and he couldn't look John in the eyes. What's wrong with me? Why am I acting like this around him?
His mind had been a battlefield of thoughts. What was right? What was wrong? He knew he felt something for John, and it was intense. He had never had these feelings for another guy before. He was always told that it was wrong, that it wasn't acceptable. What if John wasn't even gay? Then he knew he loved woman. Like Jessica and Vanessa. What about them? He loved them? How could he love a man?
"Nick? Nick!?" John was waving his hand in front of his face frantically. Nick jumped lightly realizing reality and put his hand on Johns shoulder. "Im ok, lets go get our boarding passes and bags checked." John looked into his glacier blue eyes and nick left his hand on his shoulder and it was left like that for a bit. John felt his heart flutter and knew the feelings he was having for Nick were truly there. His thoughts weren't much farther then Nick, who suddenly looked away and grabbed his bag. The fear jostled his heart and powered his legs. John wondered what had just happened, he walked slowly to the boarding log desk behind Nick. They were both tense and quiet, the steward could notice it easily. "Ok here you guys go have a great flight. Thanks for flying American Airlines." She smiled and handed them there passes. They got checked by security and walked into their bare gate. There was about 12 people there, some sleeping on the laps of another or reading. John walked over to a small section of empty seats and sat indian style in one of them. The white Hollister seagulls on his red pajama pants were distorted as he snuggled to his black hoodie. Nick sat next to him and struggled to get comfortable. He looked over to John who had his eyes closed and head rested on the back of Nicks seat. His eyes lingered there, thinking that he was actually a handsome guy. It wasn't long before his body rested on the back of the seat and he too shut his eyes for some rest. He dozed off for a bit before he felt a small weight on his shoulder. It was familiar, and warming in a way. He opened his eyes and saw Johns head on right shoulder and he smiled. His expression was peaceful with a small smile owning his lips. He knew if people saw him he would be splashed all over every magazine but he really did not want to move. It wasn't long before he to was asleep.
"Young man there boarding now." John blinked his eyes a few times and thanked the man hoarsely. He stretched his arms and his body, feeling the knots come undone. He looked to his left to Nick just waking up. "There boarding..." John said his voice still a bit raspy. Nick nodded his head and slowly pulled himself out of his seat. The two walked next to each other by the gate entrance and handed the steward there tickets and walked down the hall to the plane. Soon they were sitting in plump leather first class seats. Both sat interested in everything going on around them. Nick got a few smiles and screams from oncoming passengers, he just smiled at them and waved. John realized that this trip may make that him. That he could be waving to fans on planes in a year or so. "So tell me about your childhood." Nick asked looking over to him since the incident in the lobby. John looked over and nodded. "Well. I was born in Pennsylvania on December 6th, uhhh my mom left my dad when I was 7. I stayed with my dad till I was about 15 then left to live with my mom. Came to L.A. When I was 18 and have been staying there since." John said Nick nodded, taking it all in. "How about you?" John asked intently.
Nick smiled and tapped his hands on the arm rest. "Born in Harlan Kentucky. My birthdays November 9th. Moved to Cincinnati Ohio, with my mom and dad. Stayed there went to college for Medical Med. But 98 degrees came up and I took it." Nick shrugged his shoulders like there was nothing to it. John laughed and nodded his head. "So if you don't mind me asking what happened to Jess and Vanessa?" John asked shyly, being careful with his personal question. Nick shook his head and took a deep breath. "Its cool. Well Jess and I just couldn't fake it anymore. We played off this happy couple for the last season of newlyweds and afterwards. It was so much into our privacy it ruined us. Well Vanessa I found cheating..." He lowered his head and wiped his hand on his sweat pants. John beat himself up for asking the question, hurting Nick personally. "Im so sorry Nick." Jon said rubbing his shoulder. Nick lifted his head and gave him a small 'its ok' look. "Don't be, you didn't know." The Captain interrupted their conversation over the intercom.
"Welcome passengers, this is American Airlines Redeye to New York. Im your Captain Stan and I would like to say weather is expected to be smooth and arrival time is 5:25. Again thank you fro flying American Airlines."
"You got a girlfriend?" John turned to Nick and laughed gently. "Nick... Uhh I'm gay." John didn't hold a happy face, he didn't know what to expect from Nick. Nick just smiled and nodded. The plane started to rock and the tires were running against the runway. The engines roared as the pushed the plane harder down the runway. "I hate this part." John said nervously looking out the window at the rain. Nick wiped the sweat off his palms and let his heart do its own. He grabbed Johns hand, intertwined their fingers and held tightly. He held back a laugh as he looked at Johns shocked face, he smiled and held just a little tighter to his hand. "Nick??" John asked looking at their hands. Nick nodded before lifting his hand and kissing Johns fingers. He looked out the window and pointed. They were in the air, John was completely oblivious to the whole takeoff.
