~*~The Next Morning~*~
"Hey where's Justin and Lilly?" Lance asked walking into the kitchen.
"Well, if they're still in the last place I saw them, then their sleeping…….in Justin's bed." He said plainly eating his breakfast.
"What!?" Joey yelled, almost dropping his glass of milk.
"What do you mean sleeping in Justin's bed?"
"Just what I said. They fell asleep last night talking in Justin's bed. Im assuming that's where they still are."
"Ummm….OK." Lance said confused
"So, did Justin get some last night or what?" Joey asked. Chris kicked him under the table and JC hit him on the back of the head.
"Ow! What was that for?" He pouted. Chris just rolled his eyes.
"Lilly wouldn't do that."
"I wouldn't do what?"
All the guys turned around to face the door to see Lilly standing there. They all froze and Chris tried to think of something to say.
"You wouldn't skip out on spending the day with us again. We know you just had LOTS of fun yesterday." Lance said smiling.
"Especially last night." Joey mumbled to himself.
"What?" Lilly asked.
Chris kicked him under the table again.
"Ow. Dude, that hurts."
Lilly gave both of them a confused look.
"So how 'bout it? We haven't really decided where to go yet, but would you like to join us?" Chris asked.
"Of course, I love to. Just let me go get ready." She went back upstairs and quietly into Justin's room. She quietly closed it and leaned on it, looking at the boy sleeping in the bed.
'Look at him, he's so beautiful. How could he really be like Chris says? But why would Chris lie to me about something like this?' She thought to herself.
"What am I going to do?" She whispered.
"Do about what?" Justin asked.
She jumped.
"Oh, Justin, your awake…….ummm, good morning."
He sat up and stretched.
"Good morning to you too, now what are you going to do about what?"
"Huh? Oh….ummm, what am I going to wear today, the guys want me to spend the day with them again.
"Oh, really? That sounds fun. Ill help you find something to wear. Where are all the clothes you got yesterday?"
"Downstairs." She said.
"OK, you can get cleaned up in the bathroom, and ill go downstairs and see what's going on. And bring your clothes up here."
"All right." She said quietly.
"Is something wrong?" He asked her, his voice full of concern.
"Huh? Oh, umm, no. Im just tired I guess. Im fine, don't worry about me." She forced a small smile.
Justin didn't believe a word she said, but he nodded his head 'yes' and left the room.
When the door closed, Lilly released a sigh. "Justin seems like a great guy. But Chris wouldn't lie to me. He's practically my best friend." She said to herself. She turned around and walked into the connecting bathroom and got into the shower.
~*~Meanwhile Downstairs~*~
Justin got to the bottom of the stairs and looked around the room for Chris before entering. He saw no one in the room and saw the bags in the corner. He walked across the room to get the bags, and as he was headed back to the stairs, Lance came out of the kitchen.
"Hey Justin."
"Hey Lance." He replied quietly so Chris wouldn't hear him.
"Where are we going today?"
"We're not sure yet, but Chris and Joey want to hit a club later."
"That's cool. Im gonna go back upstairs now." Justin got back upstairs and after about 10 minutes he heard the water stop, but he could hear someone faintly crying in side the bathroom.
