More Than Friends
It just can ‘t be true. There was no way that Justin
is gay. After all these years there was no way for so long he was with Britney
Oh but wait that was just a cover. Still none of that mattered. Justin was never
going to be his, he came out for a reason and that reason is probably a guy. A
guy that can’t possibly be me. It’s just not fair he’s not getting married
but can it get any worse than this. He doesn’t like me like that and probably
never will . Ok pull it together Chazes, get a grip he’s still your best
friend so what- you’re in love with him He doesn’t have to know that so
enjoy what you get man and deal he’s still your friend so don’t complain
that’s better than nothing.
JC’s mind was a battle of emotions. Justin had come out to the group, told
them all that he was gay. None of the guys were upset about it really, they knew
that it must have been difficult for Justin to finally tell them, all of them
wondered why exactly he chose now to do it but none of them would push him for
answers because anyone could take a guess. And they did. Justin only did things
with good reason and for him to do this it had to be big
and what could possibly be that big? Breaking up with Britney big? Coming
out of the proverbial closet big? A relationship not just any relationship
though he had to be in love.
This reasoning hit JC as he was sitting on the TRL stage a few days after
Britney and Justin’s press release/appearance on TRL. The guys were on to talk
about the tour and upcoming projects that they were involved in. Normally JC was
focused when on camera but now all that he could think of was Justin. While that
wasn’t a drastic change in routine for JC since he figured he spent more time
daydreaming about his friend than anything else, what was different was that he
couldn’t stop thinking sad things. Where he once looked forward to being
around Justin, the small touches they would share, the smiles and gestures that
he relished once upon a time now he only saw as the most difficult moments in
his life. He loved Justin, there was no convincing himself otherwise, but he
hurt every time he saw him, touched him, heard his voice, because now he was off
limits. Before he could daydream and hope freely for what could never be without
any guilt but now he couldn’t risk it. Undoubtedly Justin was happy with
whoever this guy was he couldn’t let himself entertain these thoughts because
it would hurt Justin but more importantly, the more he did, the more his heart
felt it would explode out of his chest and start doing a little dance mocking
him chanting ‘You love him, he
doesn’t love you we’re best friends as friends could be’
Man I knew watching Barney with Jonathan was a mistake
now I’ve got little warped images of my internal organs singing twisted
versions of the Barney song! UGH!
JC shook his head from his thoughts as he once again brought his attention back
to the show.
„So guys how’s it going so far?“ Carson asked.
„It’s going well so far it’s always great to be getting out there for the
fans“ Justin spoke up.
„Yea, we’re all excited to perform the new stuff.“ Lance said.
„Cool cool so how much down time have you guys had lately?“ Carson asked.
„We’ve had more down time than we’re used to which is good but for a
little while there we were all callin’ each other up like ‘hey man what are
you doin’ today.’? because we didn’t know what to do by ourselves.“ Joey
laughed. JC pasted on his fake smile realizing that if he looked even the
slightest bit off Carson would notice and inevitably ask what was wrong. Trying
to occupy his mind away from thoughts of Justin he started tapping his fingers
to a song playing lightly in the background. It was a special 2-hour long taping
of TRL that day with all audience requests.
Could someone request a worse song?! He thought as he began to hear the words to
the song. Words that seemed to mirror his feelings exactly, and unbeknownst to
him, Justin’s as well.
That’s Right...........That’s Right........... Sometimes I wish we were
more than just friendsI know that I’m dreaming cause you’re crazy about
herSometimes I wish all the time thatyou spend with her was with me insteadI
wish we could be more than friends
It was true JC wanted to be with Justin. He’d spent
countless nights tossing and turning wondering when and if he would ever get
over his friend because back then Justin was straight and with Britney. He let
himself get lost in daydreams of Justin and himself together back then but now
things were different. Yes he still felt for Justin, he loved him. But now that
Justin had come out to the group he was confused. Confused because now he
didn’t know which way was up in his world. Everything had been so set before.
He was able to lust and love Justin from behind the safety of knowing his friend
was straight but now that was shot to hell and back because Justin wasn’t
straight. No Justin was gay.
It’s time to let you know just how do I feelAbout that day (that’s right)
you drive me crazy (that’s right)If she ever let you go then you know the
dealBoy you will be mineTill the end of time
JC had barely slept last night. All he could do was
think. Lance had asked him repeatedly if he was ok, if he wanted to talk but he
honestly didn’t even know what to say. There was just so much going on in his
brain he couldn’t really deal so he just said he was fine.
Slowly the TRL appearance was winding up. They had been there all day, hanging
out with the audience, pulling people with cool signs up from the street to meet
them. One girl was really cool. Her sign was huge and hilarious. Just the way
the guys liked it. The girl herself was a younger fan about 14 her older sister
was about 19 and the two entered the studio facing the cameras looking like
they’d bought the entire NSYNC section of one of those girly stores like
Claire’s or Afterthoughts. The guys had laughed, teasing the girls about their
body glitter. The two had readily admitted that even their lip-gloss was NSYNC.
„They have NSYNC lip gloss?!“ Chris asked shocked.
„Man, they’re selling lip gloss with my face on it cool“
„Yea its good stuff too. I have the Justin lip gloss,“ The younger girl
Cameron said.
„Yea, and I have the JC lip gloss.“
„Man, they always get the chicks!“ Chris joked causing the audience to laugh
as well.
„Well if it makes you feel better I’ve got on a Chris scrunchie“ the
younger girl motioned to her hair tie. The audience cracked up laughing.
JC was able to block out his thoughts for a while letting the girls entertain
him with their antics. They’re fans had always been so cool. The one’s
he’d talked to had always been funny and great people and he felt that he and
the guys were lucky to have them as fans.
After hugging the girls, the show continued. Addressing the ever important
girlfriend question was a given.
„So guys, my next question is actually something that a lot of people have
been talking about a lot lately, especially about you Justin!“ Carson began.
The guys groaned good-naturedly. The audience chuckled.
„Really, must we go there?“ Chris asked smiling.
„Yea man, its sad enough we have no girls, but we gotta go on national TV and
tell everybody all the time“ Lance joked.
„Nah man really, its cool everyone always asks anyway its kind of funny at
this point.“ Justin grinned.
„Well then, for the record, who’s dating, and who are the lucky ladies, if
any?“ Carson asked starting by looking at Joey.
„I’m with Kelly and Brianna“ Joey grinned proudly. The audience cheered,
the vast majority of the girls emitting the ever-popular „Awww.“
„I’m just kind of dating around right now. Nothing to serious yet“ Lance
grinned.
„Hmm. What’s this rumor about you and Kelly from DC?“ Carson questioned
Lance.
Lance blushed slightly. Smiling he replied with a shake of his head. „There’s
nothing to say on that just yet“ causing the guys in the audience to cheer for
Lance to get with Kelly.
Laughing Chris readily admitted, „I’m single, dating, nothing permanent yet.“
JC knew that all eyes were on him now. Swallowing he grinned shyly and said
„Well there’s no one right now, I’m looking but just not there yet .
I’ll keep you posted!“ he finished laughing along with the audience.
„Alright Justin .time to fess up man!“ Carson joked.
Justin laughed glancing over at the guys, JC specifically. „Man as Nelly says
I’m ready to ‘strut and feel some butt’, but nah really, me and Brit just
broke up as ya’ll all know,“ he began getting a mixed reaction of Aww’s
and clapping. „We’re still best friends, always will be, we both want
something different in life and when the time comes and I find that special
someone I can only hope fans will accept me moving on in life.“
„How has the reaction been from the news of the break up?“ Carson asked him.
„Well at first people were shocked, some people were upset and a lot were
weirdly happy, Brit’s a great girl, I hope she finds someone who can love her
and make her the happy because she deserves that.“ Justin stated. The audience
erupting into applause at his heart felt reply.
„So no one new, rumors have you dating Ms. Jenna, and Ms. Janet-Ms. Jackson if
ya nasty!?“ Carson joked. The audience laughing, yet still sitting forward in
anticipation.
„No one new, Jenna and I have been friends for a while now, as have me and
Janet, I’m not with either of them, not dating anyone right now but let’s
just say I have my eye on someone“ Justin said with a smirk. „Oooh!“ the
audience exclaimed.
It’s the same dreamOver and over(I can see us walking and holding hands)You
and meCloser and closer(If everything was different you’d my man)
JC shook himself out of the slight daydream he was
having while watching Justin speak. He was just so perfect, and it seemed like
he had no clue how amazing he really was. Everything about him was so genuine.
People loved him, because well- he was Justin, and it was hard not to. JC
realized in that moment how much he valued Justin’s friendship; he couldn’t
stand the thought of loosing him over his silly crush.
Sometimes I wish we were more than just friendsI know that I’m dreaming
cause you’re crazy about herSometimes I wish all the time thatyou spend with
her was with me insteadI wish that we could be more than friends
The guys had ended TRL that day and headed back to
their hotel The Radisson. It was semi-low key, away from Times Square enough to
not draw much attention or disturb normal NY traffic with the fans that always
seemed to be camped out front of every hotel they were in. JC was in his room
hanging out with Lance for the better part of the afternoon. Lance was trying to
get through to JC, telling him that he needed to tell Justin his feelings. JC
had fallen asleep not sure what to do, knowing in his heart that if he didn’t
at least confess his feelings he’d be plagued with ‘what ifs’ he dropped
into a deep sleep filled with dreams of the past few months, the past few years.
FLASHBACK
"Another day in the life." JC mumbled
watching from across the room as Justin walked in with his cell phone attached
to his ear. It seemed lately every free minute he had would be spent on the
phone. That wasn’t what irked JC, it was fine, most of them spent their off
moments talking to family and friends back home but Justin seemed to only be
talking to one person other than his mother, and that person had his undivided
and devoted attention. Britney.
JC had loved Justin for a while now; he could safely say he’d fallen in
love with him at first sight. Years before on MMC, that first day the new kids
were on set. JC had been off to the side talking with his friends Tony and then
girlfriend Nikki. He’d seen the younger kids walk in noticing that three of
them seemed to be sticking together. Christina, Britney, and Justin. To JC
Justin stood out from the dozen or so other people in the room. He was just a
kid but something about him caught JC’s attention. Maybe it was that god-awful
hair, so curly, but forcing him to use all his will power not to touch it. It
just looked so soft. Maybe it was those eyes. Sure he had blue eyes himself but
there was something different about Justin’s they were a darker shade of blue,
shining with a curiosity that made JC wish he had the answers to whatever
possible question Justin could ever come up with. Maybe it was that smile, so
perfect too perfect for just a kid. It made him melt. But more than anything it
scared him. He’d realized a while ago that he was ‘different’ he’d
questioned his sexuality around the time he started MMC, and was finally to the
point where he was comfortable and confident in who he was, even though he
didn’t come out and tell the cast, he was in no way confused about who or what
he was.
~Fast Forward~
„Hey JC, man this is Justin, you know from MMC?“ As soon as JC heard that
voice he knew, he knew and his world tilted ever so slightly because that voice
was one he hadn’t heard in months. He’d left for LA almost as soon as MMC
had ended and hadn’t spoken to Justin other than the ritual letter he’d
promised at least every two weeks. Truth be told he could write everyday if he
could be he knew that would rise more than a few eyebrows.
Things hadn’t been working out for him in LA and he’d recently made the
hardest decision in his young life. He was going to head back home. At least
there he could get a new perspective, the jaded view he’d had of Hollywood was
no more. It would be good for him.
„Yea Ju, what’s up man?!“ JC exclaimed. Justin grinned at the nickname
that only JC used for him.
„Nothin much, listen man A friend of mine, Chris, remember him well anyways,
he’s tryin to start up this group kinda like Boys II Men with dancing and
stuff well he asked if I knew anyone who could sing and I thought of you first.“
Justin spoke shyly. JC stood in shock.
~Fast Forward Ends~
FLASHBACK ENDS
JC woke up with a smile, hearing the water turn on in
the next room over. Justin wasn’t a morning person everyone knew that but he
always was the first in the shower, to get the ‘good water’ as he called it.
Swearing up and down that it was a conspiracy by water companies that the water
after the first shower was recycled and just plain gross. JC sat thinking about
his dreams. For so long he’d wished, dreamed, and been brought back to reality
that Justin and Britney were together. Now that that wasn’t the case, JC had a
choice to make.
Waking up to the morning each dayI think of you and how I wishI were the
special girl in her place (that’s right)Every time you see me with the smile
on my faceI just can’t help but wish for the day It’s the same dreamOver and
OverI can see use walking and holding handsYou and meCloser and closerIf
everything was different you’d be my man
JC and the guys were due for a pretty laid back day,
well for them it was more like a vacation. Only two interviews, in the same
building no less, and a mini photo shoot. He showered just long enough in case
Justin’s theory on the water system of the country was correct, he wouldn’t
be in danger from toxic water (AN: lame joke I know but smile and nod people J)
As he stood steam rising from his body, the water from the shower hot, soothing
his body, helping to clear his thoughts from the past few days. He and Justin
had barely spent anytime together, just the two of them, for a long time. Mostly
that was his fault. He kept his distance now and then when his feelings for his
younger friend became too much. But today that was going to change. He made it a
point in his mind that during free time today he’d hang with Justin and get to
know him again with this new side to him and be as open as he could to see if
this was really a chance he could take.
Sometimes I wish we were more than just friendsI know that I’m dreaming
cause you’re crazy about herSometimes I wish all the time thatYou spend with
her was with me insteadI wish that we could be more than friends
Dressing for comfort he stepped out of the shower
pulling on a pair of semi fitted blue jeans, a black button up shirt, with the
sleeves rolled up, and a pair of black Nikes Justin had bought him a few days
before. Looking in the mirror at his newly grown out hair and realized that
he’d dressed in things that symbolized Justin. The shoes obviously a gift from
his friend, the shirt one that Justin had helped him pick out on an afternoon
shopping trip before an interview months ago, the pants were his favorite, and
possibly Justin’s too from what Lance had said one day claiming Justin was
checking him out when he walked in wearing the then new purchase. Knowing this
he smiled and wondered if Justin would notice.
Justin dressed in a pair of blue jeans; a white fitted shirt and charcoal gray
button up over shirt. Looking in the mirror he realized what JC had. He was
dressed for JC to notice him. The jeans were his most baggy; something JC had
casually mentioned he liked that Justin wore. The undershirt was specifically
chosen because it hugged his body, hoping to grab attention that way, and the
over shirt was one he’d bought while out with JC that day JC got his black
shirt.
JC had already left to meet Lance and the guys downstairs, elevator doors
closing just before Justin walked out of his room. Justin waited patiently for
the elevator along side one of ‘Sexual
Chocolate’ Mike. „Yo, man does this look ok?“ he asked blushing when Mike
looked at him slightly shocked.
Mike chuckled. Too cute! He probably dressed all-nice to impress Josh.
„Yea J, ya’ look good man. Tryin’ to impress a certain somebody huh?“ he
asked. Justin’s mouth dropped open.
He wasn’t shocked. He knew he wasn’t obvious about his interest in Josh, at
least as far as he could tell, but he was embarrassed that Mike had hit the nail
on the head about him dressing to impress ‘somebody’.
„N-no. I just wondered, cuz I uh gotta go on camera with this on I don’t
wanna look messed up is all“ he replied sheepishly.
Mike smirked, slapping a hand on his friend’s back. „I know all and see all
kid. It’s cool. You look good. JC looked good when he asked me the same thing
not long ago!“ he smiled walking into the now waiting elevator.
Justin stepped into the elevator with a dumbfounded _expression.
„W-what are you talking about when JC asked you?“
„Nothin, just that you and him seem to be worried about what you’re wearing
to day that’s all“ Mike replied easily. These two are too much; they’re
perfect for each other just need to figure it out already! He thought to
himself.
Shrugging his shoulders knowing that was all he’d get out of Mike Justin
waited as the elevator continued to the lobby.
Stepping off a moment later and heading with Mike to meet the rest of the group
in the dining room for breakfast.
Justin walked in almost stopping in his tracks at the sight of JC. H-he’s
wearing dude! We match! He thought happily. Yea it was corny but he always
thought that couples who matched- looked cute, that is as long as it wasn’t
overdone. With him and Josh dressed alike he could fantasize that they really
were a couple the way he wanted to be. He took advantage of JC’s back facing
him to let his eyes drink in the sight before him. Oh crap, he’s wearing
the pants! He always looks so so eatable in those pants! Justin’s mind
shrieked in realization.
Joey caught sight of Justin out of the corner of his eye as he sat with Lance
and Chris at the table. Nudging Chris he motioned to Justin then looked over at
JC. Chris caught on, seeing what was going on he smiled to himself.
„When do you think it’ll happen?“ he whispered.
Lance looked between the two shocked. „Wait. Huh what are you talking about“
he couldn’t imagine JC coming out without telling him. Maybe Justin had said
something to them about liking JC.
„Dude. Now that Justin’s come out its so obvious he wants C,“ Joey spoke
quietly. Lance didn’t know what to say so he just nodded.
JC turned around from the buffet with two plates one a plate of grits, eggs, and
bacon the other pancakes, sausage and orange slices. He almost dropped both
plates when he turned and his eyes ran smack into none other than Justin.
Realizing JC was looking at him with barely any hesitation Justin smiled and
walked to the table JC standing next to him soon after. „Mornin’ ya’ll“
he said.
„Morning J,“ Joey, Chris, and Lance said with suspicious grins on their
faces.
„Mornin’ Ju, you were running a little late so I got your favorite before
they started takin stuff out“ JC said smiling at Justin.
Justin felt like his heart was going to melt to the floor and make a big puddle
at those words. He got me breakfast. He couldn’t help but smile at JC.
JC was caught a bit by surprise at the bright, beautiful smile turned to him in
that moment. All he could think was how much he would do anything to wake up and
see that smile every day from Justin directed at only him like now.
„Thanks Josh“ he said still grinning as he sat down, JC sitting across from
him.
„No prob. Bob“ he joked.
„Josh you are so corny, it’s too early for that yo!“ Justin chuckled
looking down to start eating.
JC blushed slightly catching the look Lance was sending his way.
„So what is everyone up to after all this stuff this morning?“ Chris asked.
„Nothin much, I’ve got some Freelance stuff to handle, but after that I
dunno.“
„I’m gonna head over and see Kel and Bri, they’re at her parents a little
ways from here.“ Joey said smiling.
„Uh I don’t have any plans so “ Justin started.
„Come out with me today. We can go shopping or something!“ JC cut him off.
Just the two of us?! Justin thought excitedly.
„Well that sounds like a plan!“ Chris spoke up for Justin whose brain was
working in dummy mode just then.
Nodding his head to agree Justin realized what that meant. A whole day with
Josh! No one else around! Oh yea baby!
More than friends (more than friends)......More than friends (more.... than
friends).......More than friends......That’s right.......That’s right.......
After the interviews the guys headed over to where the
mini photo shoot was being held a few blocks away. Dressing in the clothes
provided. They settled into a routine of picture taking and posing doing group
shots for the first half then breaking off to do individuals. When they thought
they were done the photographer asked JC and Justin to stay behind, needing
pictures of the two together for a special section in the magazine they were
shooting for.
Nervously consenting JC and Justin stepped forward. Not used to posing just the
two of them without the guys. It was slightly awkward, both trying not to be
obvious about touching the other but desperately wanting to. The photographer
answered their silent plea telling them to pose one behind the other, funny
faces, and just plane best friends silliness since that was what the section was
about. Best friends over the years. After the first two shots both JC and Justin
relaxed tremendously easing into the comfort of the other’s presence. Justin
stood behind JC hands resting on his shoulders both grinning widely at the
camera. The next was with each wrapping an arm around the other’s shoulder
both unknowingly putting bunny ears behind the other’s heads realizing at the
last minute what they each had done. „Hey
that’s not fair!“ Justin laughed along with JC. The two began to play fight
each other much to the amusement of the photographer and crew as well as their
band mates who had stayed behind to watch the outcome of the two friend’s
photo shoot together. Finally satisfied with the pictures he had the
photographer dismissed them. Justin and JC retreating to the dressing rooms to
change back into ‘street clothes’. Exiting 10 minutes later laughing and
still ‘punching’ each other playfully.
„They are just so cute together. So happy!“ Joey cooed watching his friends.
„They’re perfect for each other“ Chris and Lance said together glancing at
each other blushing.
Joey cast a glance between the two. Wonder what’s up with that?
Sometimes I wish we were more than just friendsI know that I’m dreaming
cause you’re crazy about herSometimes I wish all the time thatYou spend with
her was with me insteadI wish that we could be more than friends
JC and Justin had decided to cruise
the big name shops of NY, enjoying the down time, not being mobbed by dozens of
fans. The occasional two asking for autographs but all knowing that they were
enjoying a day off and giving them space to do it.
Finally walking out of the last store that day with 3 bags each, which they put
in the waiting car they decided to grab a quick snack and pick up dinner for the
rest of the guys. Heading into a small ice cream shop they went up to the
counter. Justin tugged nervously on his white and black NY baseball cap as he
looked at the menu. JC doing the same to his solid black one keeping careful
tabs on a small group of teenage girls talking animatedly off to one side of the
store.
„What do you want Josh?“ Justin asked.
„Um what’re you getting?“ he asked.
„Well you know me cookies and cream in a bowl cant stand cones ugh!“ Justin
chuckled.
JC nodded knowingly. „Well I’ll get chocolate cookie crumble and we can
split em“ JC smiled knowing that he and Justin shared the same love for ice
cream.
„Cool man!“ Justin said excitedly and placed their orders. The group of
girls had left just as their order was served not even realizing who they were
(AN: sucks for them huh? lol)
The two friends headed back to the hotel 3 minutes away, not talking much at
all. Mike sitting up front in the passenger seat next to Joe, their other guard
eating a cup of Dutch chocolate. It was a running joke since all the guards
always had some sort of chocolate ice cream whenever the guys went to a place.
Adding more chocolate to Sexual Chocolate they said.
Finally in the hotel the two friends settled their bags down and then sat at a
table in the dining area of the room.
JC and Justin sat comfortably looking out a window across from the table. Two
big cups of ice cream sitting between them. Taking turns dipping between cups
they ate the ice cream and talked.
„So “ JC began.
„I had fun today Josh“ Justin spoke up nervously.
„Yea, me too Ju a lot.“
„We haven’t hung out in a while, it was nice we should do this more.“
Justin smiled at JC.
„Yea we should before I kinda kept my distance cuz I knew you wanted time with
Brit or well you know but “
„Well now you know the deal we can hang like the old days---just us.“
„Yea the two of us, that sounds perfect“ JC smiled.
Justin felt a shiver up his spine at his words. „I’m glad, cuz I like being
with you Josh“ he grinned.
JC’s hand stilled about to dip into Justin’s cup of ice cream for the last
bite. Justin snuck his spoon in scooping up the last bit of ice cream in his
bowl. Smiling evilly he held the spoon for JC. „You want?“ he asked in a low
voice. Swallowing visibly JC’s eyes widened at the seductive tone to
Justin’s voice. Hesitantly moving forward he opened his mouth closing his lips
around the spoon of the cool treat, eyes closing briefly savoring the moment. OH
MY GOD! Can he be any hotter! Justin shouted to himself feeling a familiar heat
rush through his body.
JC pulled back smiling shyly. Opening his eyes making Justin’s breath catch.
Blue eyes slammed into Blue. „Thanks .“ JC said glancing down. Ooh! One
good turn deserves another right?! He thought wickedly, catching sight of a
bit of chocolate crumble in his cup. Scooping up the desert he held the spoon
for Justin. OH GOD! Justin thought See this is what happens, you be all hormonal
teenybopper and potential for embarrassment goes sky high Justin . Good one! He
scolded himself as he leaned forward praying that his brain could still function
enough for him to get the ice cream in his mouth and not up his nose or
something. Licking his lips, he opened his mouth to receive the treat JC
offered.
JC felt his heart stop at the sight before him. Justin’s tongue peaking out
ever so briefly, torturing him, because he wanted so badly to be that ice cream
right now!
Unconsciously he’d moved forward watching Justin as he had his eyes closed
just as he had. Justin opened his eyes. Startled when his eyes two shining blue
eyes looking right back at him. So close they both thought.
Moving slightly closer together in a moment that would change everything.
What am I doing?! JC screamed at himself.
Justin could feel JC’s breath on his face, light, a sweet breath of chocolate
against his lips.
JC could almost feel Justin’s lips, his own tingling in anticipation of what
was to come. Ignoring the voice screaming: This could not be happening . But
it is?! He realized shocked.
Justin unconsciously licked his lips; the small gesture was more than enough.
Ever so briefly, his tongue touched JC’s bottom lip. JC’s eyes slamming shut
at the contact he leaned forward into the touch. Their lips meet in a soft
butterfly kiss.
The loud sound of the lock clicking on the door blasted through the peaceful
beauty that was their first kiss. They both jumped back from the other stunned
to silence.
Joey, Lance, and Chris entered the room stopping in their tracks at the sight
before them.
Two men about as far away from each other on a couch as you could get without
sitting in another chair. Red faces, shaky breathing, their eyes making them
look at the proverbial deer in headlights.
They kissed!!! they all thought glancing at each other knowingly.
Sometimes
I wish we were more than just friends (I wish . I wish)I know that I’m
dreaming cause you’re crazy (crazy....) about herSometimes I
(I...........)wish all the time thatYou spend with her was with me insteadI wish
that we could be more than friends (I wish we we could be more than friends)
