“JC, what are you doing?”

“We’re going to the party.” he replied.

“Why do you hate me so much?” I pouted placing my head in my hands about the time we pulled into the driveway where tons of cars were already lined up. Eveyone got out of the car and left me sitting there. I gave up and got out of the car and met up with the guys at my front door we walked inside to find my Aunt and Tracey chopping tomatoes and onions in the kitchen.

“There you are, I thought you weren’t going to come.” Lindsay said.

“Well we’re here.” I said. “Do you need any help?”

“Nope, Tracey and I have it under control, you go have fun.”

I rolled my eyes and grabbed Lance’s hand and pulled him up the stairs.

“Check how freaky my room is.” I said opening my bedroom door.

“It looks exactly like your old room. Everything is in the same spot.” he noticed looking all around the room.

“Same color, carpet, and look same exact dressers. Is it just me or did she try too hard to make me feel at home? All it’s really doing is making me want to go home. I’m so sorry I ever left my dad. I miss everything so bad.” I began to cry as I sat down.

“I told you it’sa ll going to be fine. You just haven’t adjusted yet. It’ll all be fine.” he said sitting next to me on the bed and holding me tightly in his arms. I lifted my head up and my eyes met his vivid green eyes and I knew everything would be alright. I closed my eyes and gradually my lips manipulated his as we engaged in a sweet and sincere kiss. I gently laid back on the bed his lips still upon mine. I knew where this was going and I wasn’t going to deny or argue with myself about it. I took my hands and removed his shirt to reveal his bare muscular chest. We removed one another’s garments and his warm body laying upon mine warmed me like on the cold days back in Maryland when I could sit by the fire and drink hot chocolate. Making love to him made me relax and forget about everyone in the world besides the two of us. With each thrust he made I moaned with great ecstasy.

Meanwhile downstairs...

“Boys can you come here for a second.” Lindsay said refering to Joey, JC, Justin and Chris. The came over to her. “Have you seen Jen?”

“I think she went up to her room awhile ago.” Chris said.

“Oh, could you tell her to come downstairs, it’s time to eat.”

The guys climbed the stairs and got to my bedroom door where they heard moaning.

“Oh god, what are we suppose to do now?” Joey asked.

“We have to make sure Jen’s Aunt doesn’t come up here that’s one thing.” JC said

“Let’s just go back downstairs I mean we can’t just sit here cause we don’t know how long they’re going to be. Besides if we’re all gone she’ll come looking for us.” Chris said. The guys agreed and went downstairs.

“Is she coming?” Tracey asked as she opened the door for Lindsay who had a tray full of food in her hands.

“Yeah, they said they’d be down here in a few minutes so she said go ahead and start.” JC said trying his best to cover it up.

“Ok well it’s ready come on.”

The boys went outside and took a seat by one of the large trees in the backyard as they ate hot dogs and hamburgers. About 15 minutes had passed and Lance and I were still in my room.

“I’m going to go get Jen.” Lindsay said getting up from the table.

“NO, don’t do that.” Joey screamed. She threw him a strange look. “I mean don’t get up you sit and relax we’ll go get her.”

Once again Jc, Joey, Justin and Chris went after us. This time when they got to my room the didn’t hear anything so JC casually knocked on the door.

“Who is it ?” I asked as I laid in Lance’s arms in the bed.

“It’s Jc.”

“Come on in.” Lance said.

Jc walked in and looked at us we were laying there half asleep.

“Your Aunt said to come and get you AGAIN.” Justin said as he too entered the room.

“Joey I can’t leave here I am too...” I yawned. “tired.”

“You have to or else she’ll come up here and she’ll see...this.” JC said.

“We’ll get dressed just please tell her that we’re not feeling well.”

“But Jen...” Chris started.

“Please.” I begged.

“Fine but if you get your ass caught it’s not gonna be my fault.” he said as the guys left the room. Lance and I dressed and made up the bed only to lay right back down on it and fall asleep.

“Are they coming yet?” Lindsay asked.

“I don’t think they’re coming just yet they said they’re both feeling sick.” Justin said.

“Aww poor babies, I’m going to go check on them.” she said getting up. JC, Joey, and Chris hoped that I was right and we wouldn’t get caught. Lindsay opened the door and saw Lance and I asleep on the bed. She came over to my side of the bed and sat next to me.

“How are you feeling?”

I mumbled “Not good, my stomach hurts really bad.”

“What about Lance?” she asked.

“I ache all over.” he replied for himself.

“Poor kids, everything is probably catching up with you. You two just stay up here as long as you need. But you should come meet some of these sweet girls Jen.”

“I’ll try to come down in a little bit, but if I can’t just give them my e-mail address and I can try to meet them some other time ok?” I said as I tried to go back to sleep.

“Ok. You two get better.” She said shutting the door. I turned to Lance.

“See I can get myself out of almost any situation. Except I really am sick now.”

“Yeah me too, oh well we don’t have to go anywhere now.”

“Yeah, and you don’t have to go anywhere either, you might as well stay the night.”

“Your Aunt isn’t going to go for that.”

“Yeah she will, my mom already had told her everything about us Lance she knows it all we’re fine trust me. Just stay with me tonight you don’t have rehersal tomorrow so I can drive you back tomorrow.”

“Ok that’ll work.”

“What am I ever going to do if I have to be apart from you for more than 2 days again?”

“Guess we’re stuck together.” he joked.

“Yup and I don’t mind it one bit” I said kissing his cheek and going to bed.

Downstairs the party was about an hour underway and eveyone was dancing around, swimming, and Justin, JC, Joey, and Chris made themselves at home playing some b-ball. Justin and Joey were leading the game over Chris and JC when Justin’s cell phone started ringing.

“Hello?” he answered.

“Oh my god is it really you Justin Timberlake?” the voice said.

“Yeah, who is... Oh my god Tiffany it’s you.”

“Yeah it’s me. Hadn’t heard from ya so I figured I’d take a shot and call you.”

“Yeah well rehersal has been long and I keep forgetting I’m so sorry.”

“It’s ok, just try a little harder, I mean I am your girlfriend ya know.”

“Yeah yeah, and Jen delivered the message to me, I love you too.”

“Good, so what are you doing now, there’s a lot of background noise?”

“Oh Jen’s Aunt invited us to some party so we’re at Jen’s house and me, JC, Joey and Chris were just playin’ some b-ball.

“Cool, hey can you put Jen on the phone for a sec I need to tell her something.”

“I could but I think she’s probably asleep.”

“Asleep? There is a party going on why would she be asleep?”

“Well she didn’t want to come to this party and as soon as we got here her and Lance disappeared to her room and stuff happened and we were suppose to tell her to come down but ya know we couldn’t exactly interrupt. So we came back later and she was like saying she was too tired to come down and she went to sleep.”

“She’s always determined to get out of something isn’t she? Well when you see her tell her something about the play, ok?”

“Sure.”

“Ok thanks, I’ve gotta go I’m spending the night at a friend’s house but Justin try giving me a call sometime, write a memo or something to remember, please.”

“I will, I love you baby.”

“I love you too Justin, Bye.”

“Bye.” he hung up and went back to the game.

Hours later the party had ended and all had gone home.
