The salty sea air reminded her of him. The gentle waves tickling her bare feet reminded her of him. Everything about the ocean or water in particular reminded her of the man that she had fallen in love with so many years ago. But tomorrow, she would no longer be able to love him; for tomorrow, she would have to watch as he vowed his love to another. And that sight would cause her the most pain in the world for she was not only losing her true love, but also her best friend in the entire world.
A single tear caressed her cheek as she stared at the full moon smiling back at her. The many twinkling stars winked at her as she remembered the numerous times they had come to this very spot to wish upon the stars that were mimicking her that very night. She knew that each of those stars held a special wish that the two of them had wished for or held in his or her heart.
The soft gently motion of a pair of feet coming across the sand caused her to shudder with joy and fear for she knew whose footsteps they were. She gently closed her eyes as the mysterious person silently took a seat next to her in the sand.
"I knew that I would find you here," the soft masculine voice of her true love said to her breaking the few moments of silence they shared.
"I had to think," she said answering his unspoken question.
"Heaven, about tomorrow..." he began but stopped as she turned to look at him with tears glistening in her eyes.
"Nick, don't worry about me. I will be fine," Heaven told him as she looked into his crystal blue eyes.
"I know that you are not fine or you would not come here," Nick said to her. "Now, tell me what's wrong with you? Is it something that I did?"
Those two questions were something that Heaven knew she shouldn't answer, but the words began to flow from her mouth with no knowledge of their existence or ability to cease their formation. Heaven looked up into his beautiful eyes and said the words that she had been meaning to tell him for the past three years.
"I love you," Heaven said to him.
"I know, angel. I love you, too," Nick told her.
"No, Nick, you don't know. You don't know how many times that I have I wished that you were looking at me instead of the thousands of other girls that themselves at you. You don't know how much I wish that you were marrying me tomorrow instead of her. And what you really don't know is that I love you as a woman loves her man," Heaven told him.
Nick stared at her for a few moments, which caused Heaven even more frustration. With all her might, she threw her hand back to slap him, but was shocked as he caught her approaching hand in mid-swing. Heaven looked up into his clear blue eyes staring at him in shock and disbelief. But the biggest shock of her life came as Nick leaned forward and softly kissed her against the lips. The shock left her as she felt his soft lips move against hers and she softly moaned as he ran his cold, soft tongue over her bottom lip. This motion caused Heaven to open her mouth for him as he slipped his tongue into her mouth as he deepened the kiss. Their tongues began an endless dual as they each fought to keep their senses.
Nick broke the kiss a few minutes later looking into her eyes as he spoke the words that she knew would come. "One night. That's all we have is one night," he told her.
Heaven nodded in agreement as he stood up helping her up from the wet sand. He took her hand into his and led her back to the home that she had helped him pick out a few months ago. This house was the summerhouse that her parents had used for many years, but just recently, they sold it Nick as a retreat from his hectic life. The house was the one place that he could use to get away from all of the stuff in his life. This house was theirs and would always be there forever.
Nick led her into the kitchen through the open balcony door and smiled at the group that was sitting at the table. A simple nod was passed between everyone before Nick retreated toward the hallway as Heaven followed close behind. Nick kept a hold of her hand as he led her up the steps.

"Wonder where he found her at?" Brian Littrell asked from his spot at the table, where he was sitting playing a game of poker with the three other Backstreet Boys and their women.
"I don't know, but I hope that she talks some sense into him or he will be doing something tomorrow that he will regret for the rest of his life," Brian's wife, Sierra, told him.
"Yeah, maybe, she can tell him the truth about what's her name," Dawn McLean, wife of AJ McLean, said to them.
"Well, whatever happens tonight or tomorrow, I hope that he doesn't hurt her or I will hurt him myself," Kevin Richardson said from his spot next to Brian.
"Don't worry, man. Nick wouldn't do anything to hurt your sis," Howie Dorough said to him as he threw a coin into the pile of money in the middle of the table.
"I hope that you are right, D," Kevin said to him.
"I hope so, too," Brian said nodding as he looked back down at the cards that he was holding in his hand.

The room glowed with moonlight as he slowly took her hand in his leading her into the bedroom that they had shared as she looked at him with pleading, yet questioning eyes. As they stood in the middle of the room, she breathed the one word that he wanted to hear against his lips. "Yes," she told him as she softly pressed her lips against his. His lips began to play against hers in a sweet, yet sexual motion she could feel one of his arms slowly run down one of her legs as the other wrapped around her back hoisting her up into his arms. Their lips continued to be pressed together as the fluid motion of him doing that motion caused a slight moan to escape the back of her throat. She opened her eyes and gazed into his eyes finding the love and passion there as he slowly laid her down on the bed. The softness of the bed became a new feeling to her; everything in this man's arms became a new feeling for her. She lifted her hand and stroked his cheek as he looked into her soft blue eyes, before slowly leaning forward and brushing his soft, cool lips against hers in another kiss.
He slowly pulled back, breaking our kiss as he gazed into her eyes. A softly whispered, “I love you,” came from her lips as his hands slipped down her body until they reached her hips. Tears began to form in her eyes as he softly pulled back and said the words that she wanted to hear, "I love you, too." As the tears now streaming down her face fogged her vision, he pulled her closer to him and wiped the tears away with the pad of his thumb before our mouths met in another heated, passionate kiss. He slowly and carefully slid his body over hers, as he slid his tongue into her mouth caressing her tongue in long, sensual strokes once again. His soft, strong hands slowly undid the ties of the robe that she had been wearing and threw it off the bed, before taking her silk nightgown, sliding it over her head. He slowly broke their kiss as he trailed sweet little kisses down her neck and onto her chest. He smiled at her sexily as he slowly set his lips over her bra-covered nipple on her left breast. He softly kissed it before moving over to the right one and doing the same thing. He softly kissed her lips as he took one of his fingers and undid the hooks of her bra, which connected in the front. He slowly pulled her bra off before kissing her bare breasts.
After softly kissing each breast, he slid slowly down her body kissing every inch of it before stopping at her belly softly kissing every inch of it. She softly laughed until she felt his finger slid down into the pair of shorts and panties that she had on. She gasped as he slid one of his fingers into her wet center, feeling and see how wet she already was for him. Her gasps became moans as he slowly slid another finger in before he began to pull them out and in, in long, sensual strokes. Her breathing became ragged as she felt herself coming but he pulled his fingers all the way out before he quickly slid off her shorts and panties with one hand as he licked the other hand off.
He found his way back to her mouth and kissing her passionately letting her taste herself from his lips as she slid her arms up and around his back. Their tongues started an intimate dance as she slid her arms down his back until she felt the soft silk material of his pajama. She slowly slid them off, leaving him in his boxers. The moment where he threw his pants to the side, she could see that he was very much in a state of arousal and he saw her eyes staring at him. He softly smiled to himself before saying, "Don't worry. I will be very gentle. I promise you."
She couldn't speak to him, but just simply nodded and watched as he lay back down on top of her. As he kissed her once again, he guided her hands to the bottom of his pajama shirt. She followed his motions and in one fluid movement, the shirt now joined the rest of her clothes on the floor. As he lay back down on top of her, the now naked, soft, cool skin of his body against hers made goose bumps appear all over her body and this brought a soft, sweet laugh from his lips. The soft laughter from his lips became an icebreaker for the whole situation as she reached up and pulled him back down to kiss his now laughing lips.
As he once again lay down on top of her, she slowly broke their kiss and said in a soft, yet sexual voice. "I need you, I want you," she said before lifting her legs around his back sliding them down to the waistband of his boxers. The material slid easily between her toes and she slid them off of him tossing them to the side with her leg. She linked her legs back around his waist as he stopped them for a moment looking into her eyes as if to ask her if she really wanted this. The pleading look of pleasure, pain, and sorrow filling her eyes told him that the both of them needed this moment. "I'll be as gentle as I can," he said before he slowly slid into her. The pain of his entry and the pain of her heart falling apart became one in the same. She knew that if they went too quickly her dream would be over and she would have to continue her life without him.
He stayed that way for a few moments letting her get used to him. He looked into her eyes for a sign to continue but she didn't answer the unspoken question but softly kissed his soft, sweet lips as he knew her answer. He slowly started to thrust in and out of her in long, full filling strokes.
As he did this, he softly began to kiss her neck again as they became faster and faster. She began to moan deeply and threw her one hand up to the bedpost to hold on for the ride of her life. He kept hitting her sensitive, hot spot as he pulled in and out of her. She could feel her climax coming as her walls tightened around him as his thrusts got deeper and deeper into her. The both of them came together in cries of passion, that he softly muffled them by kissing her deeply as she began to say the same three words again as he shot his load deep inside of her.
He softly pressed his damp, strong body against hers, so not to crush her, as they caught their breath. After they found their breath, he softly pulled out of her before rolling onto his back - taking her with him. Without words, he wrapped his arms around her pulling her close to his body as she was lying with her cheek pressed against his chest, listening to his pounding heart as he softly caressed her back as he fell asleep to the feeling of her body next to him. In the back of her mind, she knew that in the morning that the real world would once again come to life and her night with him would be only a memory and gone forever. But for now, she laid there in his arms enjoying the feeling of being next to him.

The church was filled with people from every genre of entertainment from musicians to actors and directors to Broadway stars. Everyone sat in silence as the bridal party finished its descent to the altar before the procession music for the bride started to play. Everyone in the audience stood up as the bride walked down the aisle with her father smiling that Cheshire smile at the massive crowd. As she got to the end of the aisle, Nick went down to her and brought her to stand in front of the minister with him as the bridal processional finished. The minister opened his book and motioned for the audience to sit before beginning the ceremony.
"Dearly beloved, we gather here today in the presence of family, friends and in the presence of God to celebrate the love between Nickolas Carter and Amanda Willaford. And so through Brian and Sierra today we remind ourselves of the love in our lives. Let us bow our heads in prayer. Dear God, our Father, touch all of us with the awareness of your infinite love. Let us feel your presence in our lives this day and all our days from here on. Give Brian and Sierra your special blessing on this their wedding day as you send them forth into life together. They will henceforth be one. And we, their witnesses, are reawakened this day to the power of love. Amen," the minister said before looking up at the crowd sitting in front of him. "I, now, turn to the family and friends that are here among us today to before I continue with the ceremony to ask if anyone objects to the union of Nickolas Carter to Amanda Willaford."
Everyone in the audience sat there in silence before a voice was heard from the back near the large church doors. "I object to this union," the voice said to the minister.
"And who is it that objects to this union and what is the reason for your objection?" the minister said to the person.
"I, Heaven Leigh Richardson, object to this union on the account that I am in love with the groom and he is in love with me," she said to the minister.
"Nickolas, is this true?" the minister said turning to Nick, who stood there a moment before letting go of Willa's hand and moving away from her.
"Yes, that is why I am doing this. Ladies and gentlemen, I apologize to you, but there will be no wedding today between Willa and I," Nick said to the audience, which began to chat among themselves as Nick left the altar taking a hold of Heaven's hand before speaking to the rest of the guys. "Guys, if you want to see my wedding, then you better come with us because Heaven and I are out of here."
Nick turned and walked down the aisle holding Heaven's hand in his. The rest of the guys stared at their retreating backs for a few minutes before looking at each other. "Well, I guess Nick's gonna make headlines with this one," Brian said to them.
"Yeah, and we better be there to make sure that he doesn't do anything to ruin himself," AJ said to them.
"Yeah, and I better go make sure that there is something to help him become my brother-in-law," Kevin said smiling before grabbing his wife, Alima's, hand as going after Nick and Heaven.
