Disclaimer: This is pure fiction. Nothing in this story happened. I don't know the BSB's. If I did I wouldn't be sitting here writing this alright.
I sink to the floor, when I'm done, my legs are just not strong enough to hold me.I lean forward, resting my head on Nick's shoulder, leaning into his body. He sits down, and leans against the nearest wall, bringing me with him. He pulls his arms around me and stares into my eyes.
"Now that was.." I start.
"Yep, it was" he says, kissing me on the head.
I look up at him, looking him right into the eyes.
"Did this mean anything to you"
I said it. I know I probably shouldn't have but I need to know. His eyes lookes confused for a second, then hurt. He doesn't say a word.
"I just wanna know if you're planning on dumping me anytime soon"
I had to add that, and it was the right thing to do.
"Never" he says, and lean down to kiss me.
The kiss isn't like the others, filled withe raw lust and hunger. It's soft, and it feels like..it feels like love.
Oh my God, I think I'm falling in love with him here. Which would be good, if it hadn't been for the fact that I'm engaged, and will be married in oh say a few months. But I don't wanna loose Nick, and I can't tell Leighanne it's over. I care to much to hurt her that much.
Great Littrell, look what you've gotten yourself into.
*****
I hold him tight, not wanting the kiss to end, but it has to. Breathing is kinda important. I look at him and smile.
That face, it's just so beautiful, not to mention the eyes. I don't know what it is about his eyes, but I know from that moment that I could wake up to those eyes for ever.
That thought makes reality hit me fast. brian is engaged, and I know he would never hurt Leighanne, and I would never let him. I like her, hey I'd love her if it wasn't for the fact that she has what I want, until now.
Now I've had Brian, but I want to have him again, and again, and again.
So what do we do. Cheat on her? We can't tell her. Heck, we can't tell anyone. That would be a total disaster.
"I can't break up with Leighanne" he suddenløy says, breaking the silence.
"I know" I answer.
"So what do we do? I want this to go on"
I look at Brian and smile. We both know the answer, but I guess he felt like he had to ask.
"We keep it going, and hope she never finds out"
*****
I smile up at him. he said it. He said what I've been thinking. I know I can't dump her, but I don't wanna loose him. So now all we gotta do is make sure she doesn't find out. Or anybody else for that matter.
"Kevin"
I look at him.
"What?"
"Kevin. He's probably gonna be checking our rooms. You know he will, he's in that kind of mood today"
He's right. Kevin usually checks our rooms when he's like this, bossy.
We get up in a hurry, jumping into our clothes. In the end I end up with Nick's boxers and he with mine, but right now we don't care. We've gotta get to a room now.
I unlock the door and peak outside. No one in the hallway.
We exit fast, checking that there are no visible signs in the linen room.
*****
I don't think I have ever ran so fast to my room in my entire life. Brian's with me. My room was the closest one, so we enter there. And then we stop.
Kevin is sitting on the couch. When did he get a key?
"Where the hell have you guys been?"
I look at Brain, searching for an answer. I get none from him, so I'm guessing he's as surprised as I am.
"I told you guys to go to your rooms five hours ago. "
Five hours!!! Oh my God. Well, I guess time flies when you have a good time.
"You know brian, I'd expect this from Nick, but not from you. We've looked all over for you guys. Your bodyguards have no idea where you are, no one has seen you at all. What were you doing?"
"Playing hide and seek" I try, but the look I get is telling me one thing. Shut up Nick.
"We've been talking alright. You know Nick's been acting different lately, after he broke up with Mandy and all. He needed to talk, and I listened. I figured you would come here, so we went where no one would disturb us. I know I should have called you, but I forgot, alright. Now stop acting like an idiot and leave."
It seems like Kevin accepted the reason Brian gave him. Well, in one way it wasn't a lie. We had been dealing with my 'problem'.
"Oh, and Kev. Don't even enter his or my room again when we're not here alright?"
"Sure. I was just worried."
Then he's out the door.
