MTV 1515 was all over her dancing with AJ on stage. The rumors began. It was interesting to see just what people had come up with. At one time, she was said to be a fan who was going to die and The Backstreet Boys had granted her wish to dance with AJ before she died. The online chat rooms were full of speculation about her.

Finally, AJ answered the question on a talk show appearance. "She is my lady. Her name is Tessa and I love her very much." That was all he said about her. The rest was not anyone's business. Soon, the uproar died down and Tessa could actually relax a little bit and enjoy herself, not having to dodge reporters and field questions.

Tessa began to find her niche in the group. She was determined to not just live with AJ and let him pay for everything. She was not going to be accused of being with him just for his money.

She would go to people on the crew and learn from them. She would help out wherever she could. She learned to help out in lighting and sound. She helped with wardrobe changes during the concerts. She stayed away from helping AJ change. They were on a time table after all. For some reason, Nick always seemed to be the one who needed help. She learned the dance steps and occasionally was a backup dancer. People in the crew and the guys were quickly finding her indispensable. She typed everything for the guys. Songs, e-mail, online chat, and fan letter responses.

During the days and concerts, she was kept busy. At night, she was in the arms of the man she loved. Life was good. Eventually, she went home and packed up her things. She stored most of it. She took her clothes and let her apartment go. She officially moved in with AJ.

One morning, Tessa woke up feeling sick to her stomach. She got up and ran to the bathroom and threw up. This had been happening to her lately and she was starting to get worried. So far, she had hidden it from AJ, but she suspected she was pregnant. She did a mental calculation, while she brushed her teeth, and realized that she hadn't had a period since that time when they forgot the condom. She had been so busy, she didn't even realize she had missed it. Oh no, what am I going to do now? She tried to convince herself that she just had a stomach ache from something she had eaten. Every day for the past few days? Yeah right. "Damn." She said out loud.

"Are you okay, Tessa." AJ said from the other side of the door. "You've been in there for a while."

She opened the door and kissed him. "I'm fine. Good morning."

"Come back to bed. I want to say good morning in another way." AJ led her to the bed and pulled her on top of him.

Tessa leaned down and kissed him with everything she had. "I love you." Then she worked her way down his body with her tongue. She looked up at him and smiled, "Have you ever been loved until you screamed?"

"As a matter of fact, yes." He smiled.

"Well clear your lungs, because you are going to do it again." And she took him into her mouth.

AJ was having trouble thinking straight. The things Tessa was doing to him with her mouth and tongue. His hips were moving up and down and he was pulling on her hair trying to get her to ease up so he could pleasure her in turn. But, Tessa was relentless. She did not let up, she only intensified her actions.

"Oh God, Tessa. I can't hold off any longer."

Tessa still did not let up on him.

"Oh.. yeah." AJ screamed.

Tessa crawled up and lay beside him. He took her into his arms and held her tight. "That was not fair. You did not get anything out of that."

"Yes I did." She answered.

"What?"

"Hearing you scream."

"Bitch." He said teasingly before he kissed her. "I love you more each and every day."

NICK'S ROOM

"DAMN! I have got to quit taking the room next to them."

The next day, Tessa got out of bed quickly and again and ran to the bathroom. Hearing her throw up again confirmed AJ's suspicions. Tessa was pregnant and she was hiding it from him.

When she came back to bed, AJ rolled over and cuddled up to her back. "How late are you?"

"A month."

"Were you going to tell me?"

"I didn't know how. I was afraid you would think I did this on purpose."

AJ rolled her over and took her into his waiting arms. "It was an accident. I know that." He kissed her on her forehead. "It's okay, Hun. We love each other. We created a child out of that love. We'll marry and create a good home for the child that we made. I love you. This is a natural progression of that love. It's just a little mixed up in the timing."

"This is lousy timing. You know that. Your career is taking off to the sky. The group is the hottest thing going. You can't be married with a child now."

"Why the hell not?"

"Because the main age group for your fans is under 20. A wife and baby would hurt that image. Those girls have to be able to dream about someday being with you. Once you marry and have kids, what then?"

He rolled her over and got on top of her, mainly to get her total attention and to make her look at him. "Then they can turn their attentions to another member of the group. Most like Nicky anyway. Then Brian and Kevin. Or in some other order. Howie and I seem to only get the attentions of the ones with exceptional taste." He smiled down at her and made her laugh.

"You are feeling very full of yourself this morning."

"I'm a happy man. I am in love with a reasonably cool woman. Her style needs a little help, but I'm sure I can do something for her image."

Tessa punched him in the arm. "I don't think so."

He kissed her. "I'm going to be a father. And, I have a real cool job. I love my life."

"You mean it? You're okay with the baby?"

AJ kissed her again. Then he moved down to her breasts to show her how okay he was the baby. He spent a lot of time licking and nipping at her rigid nipples. He moved further down planting kisses on his way. When he got down to her thighs he said, "Have you ever been loved until you screamed?" He kissed her mound and spread her legs.

"Paybacks are hell aren't they?"

AJ smiled and buried his face between her legs. Tessa grabbed a pillow and bit into it. AJ reached up and took it away throwing it off the bed. "No cheating."

Tessa's hips were thrusting up trying to get more of what AJ was doing to her. She pulled on his hair she pulled on the sheets. "Come up here, I want you inside me. Pleassssse."

"Let it out, and I will."

"Bastard."

"Yeah, I know."

"AJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJJ!"

AJ moved up and entered her. "That's more like it, Baby."

His hard thrusting and the look on his face made Tessa come again and again. "Oh my God. AJ......... I love you so."

"Oh......" And he collapsed on her. "I love you too, Babe."

NICKS ROOM

"DAMN! I need a drink."
