You humanize the *NSYNC guys quite nicely here. You prove that they’re capable of doing ridiculous and downright stupid things, too. 

I can totally believe that Justin might have harbored a little resentment toward the other guys just because he was the youngest. (Likewise, Chris likely got his share of flak for being the oldest.)

I also admire how you show JC exercising tact when speaking about Libby. “She's not had many boyfriends. She's bound to take a breakup hard.” I believe that, too. When someone’s a bit of a dud with the opposite sex, they pretty much take what they can get, and a breakup would be very hard on them indeed. Really brings on a pang of pity for Libby. 

Furthermore, you do an excellent job at showing things from various perspectives. On one hand, I totally get why Justin’s so hot and bothered. On the other hand, it’s easy to see how the guy’s asking for trouble when he takes matters into his own hands.

This particular line was solid gold: “He could only imagine how his mother would react if he turned up at the house they shared with a black eye and covered in someone else's blood. He'd probably be hauled back to Tennessee in a heartbeat to face the wrath of his grandparents.” Oh-ho boy, I can only imagine!
