-Their Game-“What the hell was that all about?!” Brian flared as the boys walked backstage from presenting an award. AJ looked at the ground but not before catching Nick’s smirk. God, why did he have to be so damn prideful? The dare had been set, AJ had to grab Brian’s “package” on stage. On a live show, in front of millions of viewers. What happened to just dieing Kevin’s hair blue or putting gum in Howie’s hair? Grabbing Jr. Brian at a live awards show sucked. “Are you even listening to me?” Brian flared, “Why the fuck did you do that?!” AJ cringed, Brian only cussed when he was really mad. But there was another part of their little game, don’t tell them anything. “Can’t I feel up my friend when I want?” It was a lame excuse but he needed something. Nick nearly burst out laughing at that. Brian frowned at him, “Right, next time, leave me out of the feeling up part.” With that he turned and walked off. Nick managed to keep it together until Brian disappeared around the corner. He burst out laughing, putting a hand on his knee for support. Even AJ couldn’t resist a chuckle. The look on Brian’s face when he grabbed him had been priceless. God he hoped he’d get a picture of that. “God,” Nick finally calmed down, “I didn’t think you’d actually do it. I thought I had you there.” AJ laughed; yeah right, like he’d five in then. He wasn’t gonna be the one to loose. Oh no, that was Nick’s job. “So let me know when you’ve got mine ready,” Nick said as he turned, walking down the hall. AJ smirked; oh, he had his ready and it was the best one yet. Nick sat up at the knock on his door, “Come in,” He hollered then realized the person couldn’t. slowly he stood and walked to the door, opening it and exposing his visitor, “Aje, come on in!” He gestured. AJ walked in, going to sit on the bed. Nick shut the door and followed, plopping on the bed beside his friend. “Don’t you think we’re getting a little old for this game?” AJ asked Nick, looking over at him. Nick shrugged, “It’s a lot of fun and I don’t think it’s fair to just end it now.” “Well, that’s just what I’ve been thinking about. How about this,” AJ linked his fingers together, “I’ll give you one final dare and if you do it… I’ll confess to Howie, everything.” Nick’s jaw dropped. AJ was gay, Nick knew this, and he was in love with Howie. But never once had Nick thought AJ was brave enough to tell him. AJ was brave but not that brave. This dare had to be wicked. “Okay…” Nick said slowly, having complete confidence in himself, “So, what’s my dare?” “You need to find a girl, get her to come on tour with us, get her to fall in love with you, admit she’s in love with you, then break her heart by breaking up with her. This girl’s got to fit my qualifications and you can’t know her or pay her off. And you can’t fall in love.” Nick blinked at AJ, doubts running through his head, “I don’t know J, I mean, this is a real humans emotions we’re dealing with. We could seriously miss up this girl.” AJ shrugged, “Fine, if you’re too chicken…” “I’m not!” Nick quickly jumped in. “Good,” AJ smirked, “Then consider your self dared. I’ll have the list to you tomorrow.” With that AJ stood and walked out of the room. Nick groaned, laying back on the bed, “What have I gotten myself into?” He spoke aloud to no one.
