They walked in, only to see and hear everyone arguing. They all looked up when Nick, Brian, Aaron, and Angel entered.

Aaron ached to be dressed like them. All of the Backstreet Boys were wearing the same thing as Brian, but Nick was in a green sweater, Kevin in black, Howie was wearing purple, and A.J. had yellow. The members of *N Sync were all in white long sleeved tee shirts with different colored wind pants. Lance was in red, Joey in purple, Justin in green, J.C. in blue, and Chris in black.

Aaron and Angel walked around the room and hugged everyone. Then they came and hugged Brian and Nick again. The room filled with love and the argument was forgotten.

Nick went back to his spot next to Kevin and Howie. Brian sat on the floor, leaning against the wall. Aaron squeezed in between Nick and Kevin. Angel sat next to Brian.

"So, what else have you planned for Nick's birthday?" Brian suspiciously asked and looked around the room.

"Well, um, you know it's Joey's birthday, too, and, uh, we wanted to have separate celebrations, so, I guess, it's Nick's choice!" Lance explained.

"Oh, okay," Nick said. "That's settled, but what about Justin's birthday?"

"Well, that party has a, uh, limited guest list," Chris stuttered.

"How many 'guests'?" Howie asked.

"Four, not including Mr. Birthady, himself!" Joey answered.

"'Kay," A.J. answered.

"Hey, Angel, what are you doing on Valentine's Day? Eleven guys, one girl. Hmmm..." Kevin hinted.

"Why, Kevin? Are you looking for a date a decade and a half younger than you?" Angel answered, laughing.

"No, but I am sure you won't try to be Aaron's on Nick's valentine. Maybe Justin, but he's a good little boy whose mother is his valentine. You don't know Joey, Lance, or Chris very well. Howie might spend it with his sister. That leaves Bone, B-Rok, and J.C. Who's your pick?" Kevin said.

"Scratch Bone off your list. Bone has a date!" A.J. said laughingly.

"I am going to try and contact my old girlfriend fom D.C. and get her to come up. So, I guess that leaves B," J.C. stated.

"Yay!" Brian exclaimed.

"What's your plan?" Angel asked.

"My plan is to be with me valentine sweetie, Angie," Brian said.

"Oh. I guess, Nick, Aaron, we can do a Carter thing?" Angel suggested.

Why? Shorty, you're my valentine!" Brian exclaimed and kissed her cheek.

"Oh," Angel said as she blushed, and then glared at Nick and Aaron who were laughing.

"What're we gonna do for my birthday?" Nick asked.

"Let's order a cake. Let's see we have two days. Cake and friends and cheese piled on the pizza by the pounds and mint chocolate chip ice cream and Coke. Sounds like Nick's favorites," A.J. said.

"Did anyone notice Nick is gone?" Kevin asked. "So are Angel, Aaron, and Bri!"
