Challenge - Plastic

Note: This story so wouldn't have been possible without EJ. She gave me the idea, the title...Everything. THANKS EJ!!!!

Who would have thought that a childs toy from a McDonalds happy meal could make someone fall in love again with their one and only true love? Joey Fatone didn't, But a trip to McDonalds with his daughter and his husband changed that.

Joey sat there and watched Chris play with Brianna and the toy that came with it. Chris, still being the child that he was, made a big deal out of the toy.

Joey watched them play and soon found himself falling head over heels in love with his husband. As he watched them, his mind wandered to when he first told Chris that he loved him.

*Flashback*

"Chris, Can I talk to you?"

"Sure Joe. What's up?"

"I got something to tell you, but I'm scared."

"Scared of what?"

"I'm scared that what I have to tell you will ruin our friendship."

"Well, we are dating...So come on, tell me."

"Chris...I...I...."

"It's ok Joey. I could never hate you."

Chris reached over and squeezed Joey's hand.

"Chris, I love you."

"Really?"

"Yes. I have loved you since the begining of the band."

"Good," Chris said, stradiling Joey's lap. "Because I love you too."

This decleration was sealed with the first of many, many kisses.

*End Flashback*

Joey smiled. He could feel his heart beat faster. He felt like a little girl with her first date.

"Hey Baby, I'm gonna take Bri to the slide and let her play. Is that ok with you?"

Joey nodded and blew Bri a kiss then blew one to Chris. Chris caught it and blew one back.

As he watced them walk to the slide, Joey found himself fingering his wedding band. Joey smiled as he remembered when Chris proposed to him

*Flashback*

"Joey!"

"What baby?"

"Can you come down here? I gotta show you something."

Joey walked down the stairs in jeans and a tee-shirt and Chris thought he never looked sexier.

"What is is hun?"

"Come on..." Chris said, grabbing Joey's hand and leading him out on the back pourch. There Joey saw a table set up with candles and flowers and dinner.

"Did you do all this?"

"Yep. Just for you."

"Aww baby...you shouldn't have."

"Nothing is too good for you hun."

Joey leaned down and kissed Chris. Chris wrapped a arm around Joey's waste and deepened the kiss. They broke apart a few seconds later.

"Come on hun, Let's eat."

They sat down and began to eat. They talked about what they did that day.

As the sun set Joey walked to the ledge and watched the sun set.

"Beautiful isn't it?" Chris whispered into Joey's ear, wrapping his arms around Joey's waist.

"Yeah." Joey said, leaning into the embrase.

Chris turned Joey around until he was facing Chris.

"I gotta ask you something, But I'm scared you'll say no."

"I could never say no to you Chris. Ask me."

Chris got on one knee and pulled out a black box.

"Joey, Your the best thing that has ever happend to me. Your my heart, my soul, everything that I am. So basically, I am asking you, Joseph Anthoney Fatone, to be my husband. Will you marry me?"

Joey opened the box and saw a simple silver band covered with diamond dust.

"Well Joey, Will you?"

"Yes Christopher, Yes Yes a thousnad times yes!"

Chris got up and kissed Joey. It was a kiss full of happieness and promises of things to come.

*End Flashback*

"Hey you. What are you smiling at?"

Joey was startled out of his daydream by his husband.

"You."

"Me? What about me?"

Joey leaned over and kissed Chris.

"I fell in love with you all over again. And it was all over a plastic toy."

*The End*
