Chapter 1

“JC… JC! Joshua!! JOSHUA SCOTT CHASEZ!!!!!” Justin said

“Uh?... What? It wasn’t me!!”

“What are you talking about?”

“Justin!”

“Who were you expecting? Jenna?”

“No… what do you want?”

“Johnny called and told me to wake you up… he guessed you were sleeping… after this interview we have… VACATIONS!!” he said happily

“You don’t have vacations… you have to promote your album”

“Yeah, I know… but anyways... we all envy you… you’re the only who is really going to be resting… unless… Jenna wants something else…”

“Hey!!!” JC said a little bit ashamed.

“Would you stop talking, there’s a person sleeping here…” Lance said

“Lance, were you sleeping too?” Justin asked

“No... I was dancing… don’t you see it?” he said sarcastically

“I thought JC was the only one who sleep whole day...” Justin said kidding

“I do not sleep the whole day!!” JC complained

“Since when?” Lance asked

Justin laughed.

“This isn’t funny...” JC said.

In that moment Chris came there.

“Can someone turn the TV off… Joey is driving me crazy!” Chris said

“Is he watching Superman again?” Lance asked

“Yeah… I don’t know why he’s watching the movie again!!”

“I’ll tell him…” JC said

JC walked towards Joey in their bus.

“Joey!!” JC said

“What?”

“Could you turn that off, please?”

“But it’s Superman!!! He’s my idol!!”

“You’re better than Superman, be your own idol” Justin said

“Good point… I’ll have it in mind…” Joey replied

“Where’s Johnny?” Lance asked

“He’s waiting for us at the hotel where we’re giving the interview” Chris answered

“What are they gonna ask us?” JC asked

“The usual stuffs… and also what are we doing in this hiatus time… our vacations!!! Our beautiful vacations…” Chris smiled

“JC it’s going to say: ‘I’ll sleep and I’ll be with my girlfriend Jenna, it will be frustrating’…” Lance said joking

Everyone laughed, except JC. He looked at the rest a little bit mad and then he went to kitchen section. The others watched him leave, but then started talking about their future plans. Meanwhile, JC was serving himself some cereal with milk.

“What the hell did I do?... Why they always joke around about me sleeping? There’s nothing wrong with it… anyone who work like hell like we do would love to sleeps every time he can… they always laugh about me…”

Joshua kept cursing everyone and then started to eat. The bus was coming to a traffic light; the driver saw a green light far away, so he took his coke at his left side. When the driver looked ahead again the green light wasn’t there anymore, now it was red. He tried to stop the bus to not hurt the girls that was crossing the street, but it was too late when he did it.

It hit them with bumper and the two girls feel almost 3 meters away. JC had milk in is t-shirt… the five guys run to the front of the bus to speak with the driver.

“What happened?” JC asked

“The girls… they were... crossing the street… and then…” the driver stop talking, he didn’t knew how to tell what happened, he was too nervous about the situation.

“I’m gonna see what happened” JC said opening the door

“No, JC!!! There are too many people! They would recognize you!” Justin said to JC

“So what? We almost kill somebody!” he said leaving the bus

“I’ll go see too!” Lance added

“Lance, don’t…” Justin yelled

JC y Lance went down of the bus not worrying about what Justin said or about what other people could say...

“Look, there they are… let’s go!” JC said to Lance

“Ok...”

Both ran to the place and just like Justin said, some people recognized them… People started to make some comments…

"Look, they’re from Nsync"

"I think I saw them somewhere...”

“Did they hit them?"

“I hate their music…"

“Let’s go ask them an autograph”

"Have you seen them dancing?"

JC and Lance came where the two girls were. The bus had only hit one of them, but with the force of the bus the first one pushed the other one making hr fell too.

“They’re unconscious...” JC said, “What should we do?”

“Well… we should take them to the hospital?” Lance suggested

“But... we have to go to the interview…”

“That can wait… C’mon JC, this was our fault… we were on a rush… we can leave them here… let’s take them to the bus...”

“Alright...”

Chapter 2

After a few minutes they got back to the bus. Justin, Joey and Chris helped Lance and JC with the girls. They put them on two beds and then they told the driver that the wanted to go to the hospital.
After an hour later, they were all in the hospital. Justin called Johnny, he was on the hallway.
“We’re late, we had an incident, just tell the press we’ll be there in about an hour...” Justin said
“Are you guys mad?! I want the five of you here in 15 minutes!!” Johnny stopped a little, “By the way… What happened?” Johnny asked
“I can’t tell you know... just… tell the press what I told you...”
“I said you have 15 minutes! No excuses!!”
“But we will not be…” he looked the other guys they were talking with the doctor.
Johnny hang up, they HAVE to be there in 15 minutes, or Johnny will be really, really mad.
“You were with the ladies?” the doctor asked.
“No, we were on the bus...” Chris said
“Ok… do you wanna see them?” the doctor asked again
“Yeah… but how are they?” JC asked
“Well, one of them have a several fracture in her right leg, she will have to wear that cast for a couple of months… And the other girl, well… I believe she hit her head with the pavement on the street… and it seems she have amnesia” the doctor explained, “But they were lucky… they could be dead… and now they are already awake…”
“Amnesia? You mean… she lost her memories?” Lance asked
“Yes, but… that’s not permanent, she could have her memory back any time, it could take hours, days… even years…” the doctor answered.
“Can we see them now?” JC asked
“Sure, come in”
When JC, Lance, Chris and Joey were about to enter, Justin spoke.
“Hey guys, wait, Johnny said we have 15 minutes to be there, you decide, we get Johnny mad or we stay here” he said
“Let’s go then… I don’t wanna see Johnny mad at us…” Chris said
“Yeah… me neither…” Joey added
“I won’t go… We almost killed these girls…” JC said
“Yeah… that’s true… let’s go see them…” Lance said to JC.
Justin sighed.
“Ok you go see them… we will go to the hotel… I’ll call a cab that will be waiting for you outside… don’t take too long” Justin said to JC
“Okay… thanks J”
Chris, Joey and Justin left the hospital, just then Lance and JC entered the room where the girls were, they stood at the door.
“But… Marion! How could you not remember?! I’m your best friend! It’s Nadine!” one of the girls said
“I don’t know you… and I don’t know them either” the other girl said pointing JC and Lance.
Nadine turned around to see who were “they”… and she stood speechless when she saw who were they…
“Say something…” Lance muttered to JC
“You say something…” JC muttered too
“Fine… Hi!” Lance said to the girls
“Hi...” Nadine answered
“I’m Lance… and this is JC”
“I know… I know you…” she said
“Who are they Nicole?” Marion asked.
“I’m not Nicole! I’m Nadine!!… And… what is this… you don’t remember them either? These guys are from the boy band Nsync… Justin was your favorite!”
“Justin? And who is that? You’re only confusing me!” Marion said.
“Uhm… we’re so sorry about all this…” JC said
“Sorry about what?” Nadine asked
“Well… your accident… it was our fault… that was our bus…” Lance said
“Really?”
“Yes, we brought you here”
“Wow… thank you both… oh… I’m sorry… We didn’t introduce us… I’m Nadine, Nadine Williams”
“Nice to meet you…” Lance said
“Yeah… me too…” JC added, “and you are?” he asked to Marion
“She says I’m Marion… but I actually don’t remember”
“You don’t remember ‘cause you hit your head against the pavement… and because of it… you lost your memory” JC explained to her softly.
“And how do you know that? Are you a doctor, my boyfriend or something?”
“Uhm… none… My name is Joshua Chasez… but, you can call me JC”
“Alright…”
“Okay… so you’re Marion…” he said smiling, “Well… we just wanna make sure you were ok… and Lance and I have to go now…”
“So soon?” Nadine asked
“Yeah… well… we had an interview before the accident… actually the other guys must be there now…” Lance said
“Yeah… we just wanted to know if you were fine, we have a cab waiting for us…” JC added, “So… we have to go…”
Lance took his cell phone and asked Nadine her number. He told them they were gonna call them soon.
They said goodbye to both girls and then they left the hospital with Loonie who was waiting for them next to the cab.
After awhile they arrived to the hotel. Johnny grumbled them before they go with the others, but the important thing was that they were there.
They joined Justin, Chris and Joey quietly, just excusing themselves for their delay.
The press asked them about his solo plans and they told one by one what they were expecting to do. After the interview, they posed for some pictures and then the talked a little in a room…
“So… this was it…” Lance said
“Yup…” Chris shouted
“I’m gonna miss you guys…” Joey said hugging them
“Oh C’mon… we’re still gonna see each other…” Justin said
“But not so often now…” JC added.
“But we’ll still be friends…” Justin said to JC
“Well… you will see each other at the VMA’s…” Lance said smiling
“But… only the four of us… you’re not gonna be there…” Chris said
“Right… well… it’s kinda late… why don’t we just go…” Lance added.

They all smiled and then left the hotel… So… that was it…

Chapter 3

Two days later…
“What?!” JC said
“C’mon, call them!” Lance exclaimed
“You said to them YOU will call them, not that I’ll do it…”
“C’mon, JC!… Please call them!” he insisted
“Fine… fine… I’ll call them…” JC said with resignation.
“Thanks, you’re such a good friend!” Lance said, “Now… call them!”
JC took Lance’s cell phone and called Nadine’s. Meanwhile…
“Where is it?” Nadine asked to Marion
“I don’t know… I think it’s coming from the kitchen” She answered
Nadia went slowly to the kitchen, her leg was still hurting her a little, though she was taking some pills for the pain. After she entered the kitchen she picked up the cell phone quickly.
“Hello?” she said
“Uh…hi…” JC looked at Lance asking him a name
“Nadine… or Marion…” he answered with a whisper
“Right… Marion?” JC asked
“No, it’s Nadine…”
“Ok… Nadine…”
“Give it to me…” Lance said
“Uhm… Nadine… someone wants to talk to you…” JC said to her
“Okay…”
JC gave Lance the cell phone.
“Nadine? It’s Lance, hi” he said
“Oh, hi, how are you?”
“I’m fine, what about you?”
“Well… I’m getting better, thanks…”
“Good… hey, well… I was calling you because I wanted to know if JC and I could go see you… you know… we still feel guilty about what happened…”
“Uhm… sure… I’ll give you my address… Its Minnesota Avenue #1106, Ronald Byrne building, Second Floor… My apartment it’s 22”
“Ok, I got it… I’ll see you there then” Lance said smiling
“But… hey!” Nadine shouted
“Yes?”
“It’s almost 9 p.m.… isn’t a little bit late?”
“Well… we can go to a club to dance a little…”
JC looked at Lance and started to say no with his hands and head. Lance didn’t understand why.
“That actually sounds awesome, but-…” she said, but Lance interrupted her
“Wait a second”
He put his hand on the cell phone and spoke lowly so she could not hear.
“What?” Lance asked
“Are you crazy or what? She has a broken leg and you’re inviting her to a club?”
“Oh man… you’re right…! I totally forgot it! What I’m supposed to say now, JC? I screw it all…”
“Give me that phone…” JC said
Lance gave JC the cell phone.
“Hi, it’s JC now” he said to Nadine
“Where’s Lance?”
“He… needed to go to the bathroom, it was an emergency…”
“Oh… is he ok?”
“Yeah… don’t worry”
“Well… just tell him that his idea sounded awesome to me… but… I can’t go dancing…”
“Uh… yeah… I’ll tell him…”
“Besides… I don’t think Marion is so well to go clubbing right now…”
“Yeah… I understand…
“Ok… then… well… we’ll talk later… See you soon…”
“Good… I’ll see you there...”
“We’ll be waiting for us”
Lance and JC left Lance’s apartment and then went to Nadia’s one. After awhile.
“So… tell me… I used to live with you?” Marion asked while Nadine put some blush on Marion’s cheeks
“No, but for now you will… at least for a few days more… until you get used to…” she looked at her, “But you have a really nice apartment… we’ll go tomorrow so you can pick up some stuffs…”
“So… why you just don’t take me with my parents? Why are you taking care of me?”
“I knew you’ll ask”
“Where are they?” Marion asked
“Well… this is not easy to tell… but… they died about two years before, Marion…”
Marion stared at her confused. How could she had lost all her memories… She was about to ask again but the ring bell sounded.
“It’s them… I’ll open the door” Nadine said
Nadia walked slowly to the door and opened it. Both guys said hello to her. Marion went out of Nadine’s bedroom and saw Lance and JC.
“Hi Marion…” Lance said
“Hi…” she said
“I’m Lance, remember me?”
“And I’m JC… we’re the guys at the hospital…”
“Right… yeah… I remember you…”
“How are you?” JC asked to Marion
“Fine… I guess…” she answered.
Lance told Nadine to sit immediately, and then they started talking about a bunch of stuffs just to know each other better.
Marion went out to the balcony. She needed to think a little, that last thing Nadine told her… what else she needed to know?… This situation was getting her sad.
“Hey… I’ll be outside with Marion…” JC said
“Okay… don’t worry… make yourself at home…” Nadine added
JC went out to the balcony too.
“Hey again…” he said
“Hey…” Marion said
“Are u ok?”
“Yeah… I think so...”
“You think?” he said siting next to her
“Is just… Nadine just told me… that… my parents are dead… they died a couple of years ago…”
“I’m sorry…”
“I don’t even remember them… I don’t remember anything about my past…” She stopped, “But Nadine told me we’re going to my apartment tomorrow so… maybe I could find something about them there...”
“I hope you do…”
“So… what did you do today?” she asked changing the subject
“Not too much… just working on some songs in the afternoon…”
“Songs?”
“Yeah… I’m from a boy band, remember?… Well… I used to be… we’re on a hiatus now…”
“And why is that?…”
“Well… all of us have some solo plans… and we’re working since 1995… so… we needed a break…”
His cell phone rang
“Uhm… excuse a minute…” he said
“Sure...”
JC answered the call without looking who was it.
“Hello?”
“Hi honey…” a woman said
“Hi Jenna, how are you, baby?”
“Fine, you?”
“Great”
“Good… hey honey, where are you? I called your apartment and the machine sounded”
“I’m at Lance’s place...” he lied, “He wanted me to check some stuffs he bought to bring to Russia”
“Oh… good… So… are we having lunch tomorrow? I have three days to spend with you…”
“Yeah, of course, I’ll pick you up at 1 p.m.”
“Ok… awesome… well… say hello to Lance” she said
“I will, baby”
“Bye honey, I love you...”
“I love you too… Bye”
JC hung up and turned off his cell phone, then he looked at Marion and smiled.
“My girlfriend…” he said.
Marion smiled too. Then they both remained quiet, until JC spoke, just to break that awkward moment.
“It is… nice to be with someone who doesn’t know who I am…”
“To you… I wish I could remember… I feel so stupid like this…” she said sadly.
“Don’t think that… you’re not stupid… you just had an accident…”
“But it’s true JC… I’m so useless… I don’t know anything…”
“You’re not useless, Marion… you should be good in a bunch of stuffs… and… everything will get better… don’t be so negative…”
She smiled. He was nice… and cute. But what was that strange feeling… Then they kept talking.
It was past midnight when they decided to go home. Lance drove first to JC’s apartment, then Lance went to his apartment.

Chapter 4

JC entered his apartment and looked at the answer machine, a little red light was tinkling. He had two messages, both from his girlfriend, Jenna. The first call was made before she called him to his cell phones. And the second one was made a few minutes before midnight.
"Josh, why did you turn out your cell phone? Call me when you get home… I called Lance’s house three times and nobody answer… I believe you owe me an explanation… bye" the message said.
“She seems mad… I better not call her now, maybe she will be even more that she sounds… its too late to call her…” he said
He was taking his shirt off, then he took off his pants and socks.
“I better called her…” he thought
He grabbed the phone and dialed Jenna’s number, nobody answered. He dialed again…
“Yes?” Jenna said with a sleepy voice
“Baby? You told me to call you when I got home…”
“Oh… JC… is you… I was sleeping…” she paused, “Yeah… I told you to call me… but not at this time… I thought you’d be home earlier…”
“I’m sorry I woke you up”
“Where were you?”
“I was at Lance’s house… well I was there until 11 p.m.…”
“And then?”
“We… uhm… we went to a club… to have a drink…” he lied
“Ok…” she said a little unsure, “Well… need to sleep now…”
“Ok… I’ll pick you up at 1 p.m.”
“Fine honey… bye… I love you…”
“Me too… bye”
He hung up. Then he got into the bed and covered his body with the sheets. He thought about Jenna… she had been good with him… but he has not the same feelings for her like he had at the beginning of their relationship. But after a few moments Jenna disappear from his thoughts… Marion was there now… her smile, her blond hair… she was beautiful… and he had such a great time with her. After awhile he fell asleep.
After two weeks, Jenna was traveling with the model agency she worked, Lance was on Russia already… And VMA’s were on 3 days.
Marion was living on her apartment now, she lived in the same building than Joey. JC was talking with Justin on the phone.
“So is it everything prepared for your first solo performance?” JC asked
“Yeah… everything is done…” Justin answered
“Uhmm… are you going with Rachel to the show?”
“Well… yeah… she’s my girlfriend now… besides… she’s going to dance on the performance”
“Britney will be there?”
“I don’t know, I guess she’ll be… but I don’t care about her anymore…”
“I know… I was just asking…” JC paused, “I’ll go alone… Jenna is working…”
“Chris is going alone too…”
“And Joey?”
“He’s going with Kelly…”
“Uhm…
“Why don’t you invite the memory girl?” Justin asked
“Marion?”
“Yeah...”
“I don’t know… I’ve saw her just a couple of times after the accidents, you know we had lunch and some stuffs… we talked by the phone, but, I can’t just say this to her: ‘Hey you wanna go to New York with me?’… She’ll think I lost my mind…”
“Just tell her… maybe she wants to go…”
“Hmm… I’ll have it mind… but I’m not sure about it…”
“So, how’s Jenna?”
“She’s fine… calling me every two hours…” JC said, “I’m… getting tired of her…”
“What do you mean?”
“Don’t laugh about this… but, she’s kinda… too wild to me… I mean… when we’re having sex… she’s scared sometimes…”
“But I bet you like it at the end…”
“Yeah… well… but… I’m tired of her… I don’t like her attitude anymore… she always pick a pose… I’m never comfortable having sex with her...”
“Don’t be so picky… women are women…” Justin paused, “And speaking about women… Rachel just came here… So… I’ll hang up… See you in New York…”
“Okay…”
“Same hotel as always?”
“Sure, J… bye…”
“Bye…”
JC hung up. Should he invite Marion? Will she say yes? He took his cell phone and looked for Marion McGregor, then he dialed Marion’s cell phone.
“Hello?” she answered the phone
“Hi, its JC”
“Oh… hi… how are you doing?”
“I’m doing fine, what about you?”
“I’m better… getting used to my apartment…”
“Oh… so you’re living there now…”
“Yes…”
“So… You missed me?” JC asked.
JC had an attraction for her, she was really beautiful… and the fact that she could not remember anything made her so innocent… he loved it…
“Yeah… well… a little… I don’t have too many friends, I mean… I do… but… I don’t remember them… I met you after the accident so…”
“I know… hey… uhm… I wanted to ask you something… well… it was kinda like an invitation…” JC said nervous
“An invitation?”
“Yeah, well… you know I’m a singer… and I used to be in a boy band… and… we have this show… and I don’t want to go alone… but… is in New York...”
“New York?”
“Yes... it’s kinda far from here… we have to go on a plane…”
“Umm... I don’t know JC… why don’t you go with your girlfriend?”
“She’s traveling…”
“But… I don’t think Nadine will let me go...” she said
“She’s not your mother… you depend on her” he paused, “So… you wanna come?”
“I don’t know… I can’t just go like that...”
JC stopped talking for a moment. Maybe this will be easier if he had her in front of him.
“Uhm… are you busy right now… you have plans or something?” JC asked
“No… I was just watching TV…”
“Do you wanna go somewhere… I can pick you up…”
“That sounds cool… I was kinda bored here…”
“Cool… so… where are you living now? Where’s your apartment?” JC asked
“Adkinson Building”
“Really?” he asked surprised
“Yes, why?”
“I know that place… a friend of mine lives there… so… which apartment?”
“Apartment 2002... 20th floor”
“Ok, I’ll be there in a couple of minutes” he said
“Ok…”
“Bye”
“Bye, JC”
JC looked himself in the mirror and checked if he looks good. He was, so he went out of the apartment and took the elevator. Then he went to his car and drove to the Adkinson Building. He was there.
“Same as Joey” he thought, “But… how could she live here… these apartments are expensive as hell…"
He entered the building with no problem, because in the entrance they knew he was a good friend of Joey. He walked to the elevator and pressed the up button. When the doors opened, Joey was there.
“Hey… what are you doing here?” Joey asked.
“I…” He interrupted JC
“I’m going to buy some things Kelly asked… why you’re? You need anything? Why you didn’t give me a call before?”
“I came here to pick up someone else, Joey” JC explained
“Really? Who?”
“It doesn’t matter… I’ll… tell you later…”
“Fine… well… good luck… see you soon” Joey said.
“Thanks… good luck to you too, bye…”
JC took the elevator and pushed the 20 button. He pressed the doorbell and a few seconds later she opened the door.

Chapter 5

“Hi...”
“Hey you… again...” he said smiling
“Come in”
“Thank you...” he said entering the apartment, “Wow… you have a nice apartment… but… I have a question...”
“What?” Marion asked
“You’ll see… I don’t know if Nadine told you… but… this building had the most expensive apartments in Orlando… How can you afford this? This apartment belong to you?”
“You’re been to curious, don’t you think?”
“Oh… I’m sorry… Just… forget what I said…” he excused
“It’s ok… I’ll tell you…” She smiled, “Well… Nadine told me my parents were the owners of a restaurant… they sold a few years before they died… and… this was his apartment…” she looked at him, “And… they left me a good inheritance… so I’m not supposed to have money problems for now…”
“That’s good…” JC said, “Well… thanks for answering anyway…”
“You wanna drink anything? Some coffee? A soda? Water?” she asked
“A soda will be ok”
“I’ll be right back...”
Marion entered the kitchen and after a minute she came back to the living room with two cans of soda, he gave him one and then she sad next to him in the couch...
“So… where do you wanna go?” JC asked
“You invite me to do something… surprise me…” she said, and JC just smiled.
After they drank their sodas, Marion and JC left her apartment. When they were leaving the building, Joey had just got out of his car and he saw JC with the girl. He called him immediately to know who she was.
Marion got inside the car and JC closed the door, then his cell phone rang, he saw it was Joey.
“What’s up, Joe?”
“I’m watching you right now... who’s the girl?” he asked
“She’s a friend...” JC answered
“Are you sure?” Joey said giggling
“I... you know I’m with Jenna...”
“Yeah, but you don’t love her...”
“Well... no… but I will not hurt her... I... you know what... she’s waiting for me... let’s talk about this tonight... or later!”
“Well... after you drop her, you could come to my apartment...”
“Ok... that’s cool... and don’t spy me anymore, dude!”
“Fine... bye”
“Bye!”
JC put his cell phone in his pocket and then got inside the car.
“Whom were you talking to?” she asked
“Just a friend...”
He smiled at her and she smiled too. They went to the mall and shopped. He had such a good taste with women clothes. She was happy with him.
After they bought some stuff, JC invited her to have dinner. They went to a restaurant, near there and had some Italian food.
Later that day, they came back to her apartment. Both got inside.
“Ok... so... this is it, so... are you coming with me to New York?”
“I guess so... You’ve been so nice with me today...”
“Cool... so, pack, and I’ll pick you up tomorrow... about 9 am, is that ok?” he asked
“Sure...” she stared at him, “So... you wanna come in for awhile?” she asked shyly.
What was that?... Did she just said that?... She doesn’t knew what was that strange feeling she had for him...
She was caught in his face, his eyes, his body... everything... he was just... perfect.
“Mm… okay... I’ll stay for awhile... but then I’ll go see Joey”
“Who’s Joey?”
“He’s a member of the band, he lives in this building too, but in 25th floor... maybe you have seen him…”
“I don’t know... probably...”
JC took his cell phone and showed her a picture of Joey. She said she had seen him a couple of times, but she didn’t know he was JC’s friend. They hanged out in Marion’s apartment for about an hour and a half. Then JC left the apartment and went to Joey’s. They were just talking in the living room.
“I haven’t seen her before...” Joey said to JC, “And I been living here for long time... but... so... let’s hear the fun part now... how is she in bed? Is she better than Jenna?”
“Joey!! She and I... we’ve never... we haven’t even kiss yet...”
“What?... What’s wrong with you...” Joey paused, “So, you like her?”
“Yeah... a lot... but... is just...” he stopped talking
“What…?”
“I can’t do this to Jenna...”
“But you don’t love her anymore...”
“I know... but... what I’m supposed to do?”
“Just do whatever you think is right, JC” Joey argued
“Yeah...” he looked his watch, “Oh... it’s kinda late... I’ll better get going...”
“Okay... so I guess I’ll see you in New York...”
“Yes, of course...” JC said
“Good, then... bye!”
“Bye Joe...”
JC came home and lay on his bed looking at the ceiling while he heard his messages. Two messages… both from Jenna… Didn’t she get tired of leaving messages for him?
"Hey honey… I need to talk to you… you haven’t call… three days is too much, don’t you think?… I miss you, honey… and I love you so much… call me to my cell, ok? Bye..” The first message said.
What was he supposed to do? He doesn’t love her anymore… but he didn’t want to hurt her.
"Hey again, honey… you know… I was thinking of you lying here on my bed… I wish you were here with me…”, she paused, “I need you so much… but I can feel you touching me… and it’s so good, baby…” JC looked at the machine, “Oh… Josh… please… don’t stop…” she moaned.
He kept hearing Jenna’s voice moaning. He sighted.
“Oh… Josh…” she stopped, “You liked that? We can have some fun with the phone too, baby… why don’t you just give me call? You don’t love me anymore?".
JC sighted again.
"I guess I don’t love you anymore" JC thought.

Chapter 6

The next day in the morning, JC picked up Marion, then they went to the airport, they flight to New York, and they arrived there about 6 p.m.
When they came to the hotel, Justin had a reservation for JC. So they went to the suite immediately.
“Do you like this suite? Or you prefer other one?”
“Whatever you want, JC…”
“Ok… you take this one, I’ll go to the reception to ask for another suite for me, ok? I’ll leave my stuffs here…”
“Sure…”
“Wait here… don’t run away…” he smiled
“I won’t…”
“I’ll be right back…” JC kissed her on her cheek
Marion smiled at him and then he left. She sat on a couch and JC’s cell phone rang. He left it on that table, Marion took it and saw the visor to check who was calling him… it says “Jenna”.
“I don’t think I should answer…” she thought
From that moment the cell phone kept ringing every four or five minutes. After awhile JC entered the suite.
“I’m back…” he saw the cell phone on the table, “Could you answer please?…” he said opening his suitcase
“It’s your girlfriend”
“Oh… it’s ok… don’t worry”
“I don’t want to” She took the cell phone and gave it to him, “You answer…”
JC took it and answer the call.
“Hello?”
“Finally… Where are you, honey?” Jenna asked.
“New York”
“Oh… right… the VMA’s…”
“Yup…”
“Where were you? I’ve been calling for awhile… why you didn’t answer?”
“I was… with Justin… I forgot to bring my cell phone… and now I just come in and it was ringing…”
“What were you doing Justin?”
“Just… talking…”
“Cool… so… did you hear my message last night?”
“Yes… I was… surprised…”
Marion just stared at him.
“Are you alone now, honey?” she asked
“Yes… why?”
“Don’t you wanna try to get some fun?”
“Uhm… I’m not in the mood now, Jenna…”
“Come on baby… you know you want it…”
“I’m sorry Jenna… but I have to hang up… see you soon… bye…”
Before she could speak again he turned off his cell phone. Marion stared at him.
“She doesn’t know I’m here with you, right?” Marion asked
“Right…” he said
“Why you didn’t tell her?”
“She wouldn’t understand…” he paused, “Ok… well… I’ll be in the suite across the hall… ok?”
“Okay…” she said staring at him, “JC… can I ask you something?”
“What?”
“Well… being here… it kinda scares me…” she said
“Ok… and how can I help you with that?… Do you want me to stay with you?”
“Just until I fall asleep…”
“No problem, baby… Now let’s go have dinner to the restaurant”
He called her “baby”… That word just blows her mind… he was being so nice with her. What was this? Was it love?…
JC took her by the hand… he had never done that. Without knowing she was starting to feel things for him, she liked him. But she didn’t realize he was feeling the same for her…
Marion was feeling great, she had those feelings before, but she could not remember any. All this was new for her.
After they had dinner, they went back to Marion’s suite, they were lying on the bed with the TV on, and they were just talking…
“It’s kinda sad that you can’t tell me what you did before… you know, your experiences…” she said
“I wish I could remember anything…”
“But…” he looked straight in her eyes, “there’s nothing? I mean… not even your first kiss or something…”
“Well… no… the only memories I have… is when I woke up in the hospital with all those strangers around me…”
JC moved some hairs she on had on her head, and he was looking her straight into her eyes… her beautiful eyes… he smiled.
JC closed to her little by little until he was only few millimeters from her mouth… her perfect mouth… he could her breath… He softly placed his lips on hers, then JC grabbed her chin. He kissed her softly and tenderly; this was her first kiss after the accident… She enjoyed it, and she opened her mouth shyly. After a few seconds he stopped.
“If you don’t want me to do it, you can stop me…” he whispered
“It’s ok…”
JC smiled and kissed her again, she opened her mouth one more time and this was a real kiss…
She gave a small moan when she felt his tongue inside her mouth, it was like been on the clouds. JC was making these cute and nice sounds while he kissed her and that was driving her crazy… It was a good kiss. JC released her lips and looked at her with tenderness.
“Was your first kiss good, now?” He asked
“Yeah…” she stared at him, “JC… what about your girlfriend?”
“I… don’t feel the same about her since long time ago… I guess… I’ll brake up with her…”
“But…” he put a finger on her lips
“Don’t…”
JC kissed again, but this time the kiss was more passionate… kinda wildly… he started caressing Marion’s thigh softly. His fingers we’re killing her… his touches were just amazing. JC made his way to Marion’s neck meanwhile his hand was barely rubbing her inner thigh. She felt she was on the clouds again, but this time was so much better. But suddenly he stopped.
“I… I’m so sorry…” he said, “I think we should stop now…” he kissed her lips, “we should leave that for some other day… it’s too soon…”
“Too soon?”
“Yes… I’ll teach you some of that other day…” he smiled, “You wanna hear a song?”
“Okay…”
“This is called I’ll be good for you… hope you like it…”
She stared at him
“I'll be good for you, I ain’t gonna take my love away and I will love you more girl everyday, I'll be good for you, my baby girl it's plain to see, that our love was meant to be…”
He continued singing.
“Now I know you think I must be faking, I promise all these things right from the start, So don't you rush into decision making… 'Cause I just wrote this song to tell you my heart. I wanna be with you and girl there's nothing I won't do, to make you see that this is where you should be, 'cause baby we can do anything you wanna do, Girl I wanna be a part of your fantasy…”
He kissed her forehead and said goodbye to her. Then he left her suite. In the hallway there were Justin, Chris and Joey.
“So you were there…” Joey said
“What?” JC asked
“We were knocking’ at your door, but you didn’t open, so we assume you were there” Justin said pointing Marion’s suite
“What’s up with the girl?” Chris asked
“Nothing...” JC answered, “And if something happens with her… it’s not of your business”
“We’re friends…” Justin said
“I know… is just…” JC stopped, “Just leave me alone… What I do or not do with her is my problem… Now… excuse me… bye” he said entering his suite
The three guys just laughed.

Chapter 7

Next day was really tiring, especially for Justin that has hi first solo performance. But for them was kinda hard being there without Lance. Besides they didn’t won any of the three nominations they had.
Justin, Chris and Joey went to the VMA’s after party. JC decided not to go, because Marion didn’t want to. So they went back to the hotel.
They were in JC’s suite, lying on bed again… JC was looking at the ceiling and he has is arms on his head. Marion was next to him, staring him and she was expecting he teach her what he promised. She felt so good last night that she wanted to feel those strange things… it was fascinating.
“So… what did you think about the show?”
“Good… but you didn’t won anything…”
“That’s ok… not everyone can win…” he smiled, “You liked Justin performance?”
“Yeah… he’s pretty good…”
Marion smiled. JC caressed her cheek, his hand was warm and soft… she closed her eyes when she felt his fingers on her face. She wanted to kiss him… so he could act the way he did the night before… she had loved that…
“Come here… give me a kiss…” he said smiling
Marion smiled again and leaned a little to kiss him. His lips were delicious, she just loved them… After a moment his tongue was on her mouth, she was just enjoying feeling their tongues together…
“Come here...” JC said closing her to him.
Marion nodded… JC hold her tight in his arms.
“You know what?” JC asked
“What?”
“I think… I’m falling in love with you…”
Marion giggled and he kissed her tenderly.
“Do you wanna stay here?” he asked
“Why not?”
JC smiled this time and he kissed her again. JC made his way to her ear lobe, sucking and licking it, while his hand was already touching her in her most sensitive zone. She gave some small moans, he was really turning her on. She looked at him.
“Let’s take off that dress…”
JC help her taking off her black satin dress that she wore for the show. After this they lied on the bed. He kissed her again, and his hand was working on her underwear. She was already wet, so he slowly inserted a finger inside of her, then he added a second finger.
“I feel weird…” she whispered
“You’re excited… is normal, baby… don’t worry… just enjoy…” he answered softly.
“I like it…” she said with an imperceptible voice.
She was breathing heavily. JC just smiled with her last words, and kept kissing her with passion.
His kisses were marvelous. Every time he put his lips on her body she moaned. JC started to make his way to her sensitive area. He kissed her neck and with his free grabbed one of his breasts. He licked her body between her breast, and then he was on her belly…
“Oh… JC…” she moaned
He was now tasting her… she was about to cum. He put another finger inside of her.
“Oh God… that feels so good, JC…” she said.
“Good…”
He started moving his fingers inside of her and covered her clit with his mouth. He licked her hardly and kept moving his fingers until she arched her body and he knew she had felt it. She had her first orgasm… the first one she could remember. Marion groaned when she felt it. He reached her mouth and kissed her softly.
“Are you ok?” JC asked
“Yeah… JC… that was… amazing… I loved it…” she said while her breathing was slowing down
“I love you…” he said
What did he just said?… He loved her? But… he had cheated his girlfriend with her… and that was not good…
On Saturday morning they took a plane to go back to Orlando. They land there past noon.
“Are you coming to my apartment?” JC asked
“I’ve got mine...”
“Don’t you wanna be with me?”
“Yes, of course… but…” he kissed her.
Meanwhile…
“I can’t speak right now… I have training…” Lance said
“But Lance!” A female voice said
“I promise I’ll meet you tomorrow”
“You’re such a liar…”
“I promise, Diane!”
“Tomorrow you will say the same thing! You think because you’re famous I’ll stay with you?!” Diane asked mad
“Diane, listen...” she interrupted him
“I don’t want to… just leave me alone… Bye!”
“But… Diane...”
She released her arms from Lance’s hands and then she left.
“Damn it!”
Lance looked his watch… he was already late for his training… Although he was dating a girl in Russia, all this time he thought about Nadine… her black long hair and her beautiful eyes… in his free time, if he was alone, he always called her. And they had long phone talks. He was just crazy about that girl from that day JC and he came to her apartment…

In the same moment, in Orlando, JC was on the elevator with Marion. They were holding hands.
“You’re gonna love my apartment… it has an amazing view… and… well… you’ll have everything there…” He paused, “It’s cool… it’s pretty big… and my bedroom has a king size bed… ooh, and the decoration… you’re gonna love it… I didn’t decorate it, but it’s awesome… and…” she interrupted
“JC you don’t have to give me all that explanation, really…”
“I’m sorry… I’m just excited… Ok… this is our floor”
They started walking towards the door, while he was looking for his key.
“Hey, baby… can I ask you something?” JC said
“What?”
“Will you call me Josh?”
“You want me to call you like that?”
“Yes… my closest people call me Josh… and you’re one of them now, so…”
“Then Josh it will be…”
JC smiled. He put the key on the lock and when he opened the door his face changed. His apartment wasn’t locked. And that only meant one thing. He had a visitor.
His visitor was just in front of JC and Marion when he opened the door.
“What are you doing here?” JC asked.

Chapter 8

“I’m telling you… Justin told me... ” Chris said to Joey
“You should be telling those things, Shorty”
“I hate you call me like that!”
“I know, Shorty!”
“Drop it!”
“What? Are u gonna tell to go sit somewhere else?” Joey asked
“No, you know I won’t... Man, I’m so hungry... why don’t you call the flight attendant and ask her something to eat... Or... we can ask her to sit here with us...” Chris said giggling
“You’re a casanova!!”, Joey paused, “Hey... How do you think Lance is doing with his training?”
“I don’t know... but, if I was him, I’ll fly immediately the US again instead of going to space”
“Are you afraid if something happens?”
“Obviously... he’s our friend…”
“Yeah... well... I’m worried too... but he wanted to do this... we have to support him”
“You’re right about that… but I still get worried…”
Meanwhile...
“What if she doesn’t believe?” a guy asked
“She will, just show her some pictures and she will…”
“I went to her apartment, but nobody was there... she didn’t open the door Axel”
“You didn’t call Nadine?” Axel asked to Daniel
“Yes, I called her... but she said she was desperately looking for her... she doesn’t know where Marion is”
“Just keep looking...”
“I am, you stupid!! And I can’t fuckin’ find her!...” he paused, “Maybe she met someone else... she doesn’t remember me, she doesn’t... and she doesn’t even know who I am... Why me? Why she?” Daniel regretted
“Why you didn’t went to see her when you knew she had this accident?” Axel asked
“I read it a week later, and I wasn’t in the city... And… I just thought if I come to her house she could get scared or something...”
“I’ll help you find her”
“Thanks, man...”
Meanwhile, in Russia, Lance was on the cell phone.
“So... I decided not to go... I’ll go back to Orlando”
“But Lance... why would you do that?... I thought this is what you wanted” a female voice said
“Yeah... but... I can’t take it anymore... I need to be with you... right now... I’m crazy for you…” he said
There was a pause before she spoke.
“That’s so sweet, Lance... and… I want to be with you too... but, I bet you don’t even remember my face...”
“How could I forget you, Nadine? You’re so beautiful…” he smiled, “So... you wanna be with me...”
“Yeah... I like you... a lot...”
“Cool...”
“Lance... you’re not doing this only for sex, right?”
“I could you think that?” Lance asked
“I hope you really love me...”
“I do...” he paused, “Well... tomorrow I have to finish some stuffs and signed some papers to cancel the training and all that stuff... then I’ll fly back to Orlando, I’ll call you when I land...”
“Ok”
“Ok... now I have to go... bye baby” Lance said
“Bye, Lance” she said.

Chapter 9

Justin was talking with his girlfriend, Rachel
“Did you see this? Lance is not going to the space” she said showing him the newspaper.
“Yeah… I read it… but I don’t get it, he was so excited about this thing…” he paused, “The last time I talked to him, he told me that the training was interesting and he said he was having so much fun…”
“Well… he must have a good reason for cancel…”
“I bet he does…”
“Hey… by the way… we had something pendent… something we were doing last night… and it was really, really important to me…” she said kinda flirting
“Mmm… I don’t remember what was it...” Justin said with an innocent voice
“You want me to help you remember?”
“I’d love to” he said putting his hands on her waist
“You really don’t remember?” she said smiling
“I don’t...”
“Well… you promise you’ll teach me the No strings attached dance moves”
Justin looked at her confused, and Rachel noticed this.
“What? You were already thinking in having sex? Honey is afternoon… please…”
“No, no, no… I wasn’t thinking that… but…”
“No buts” she said putting a finger on his lips.
She walked towards the sound system and put the CD on, then she stared at him smiling.
“Maybe when you finish the lesson… we could do what you want...”
Justin smiled and walked to her, then he hugged her.
“You can’t resist...” he said
“Yes I can… If I couldn’t, then I’ll be the in bed screaming your name already… don’t you think?”
“Uhm… yeah, well… I guess you’re right...”
Meanwhile, Daniel was pressing Marion’s apartment button in the first floor. Nobody answered. She wasn’t there, she was with JC.
Daniel started cursing and kept pressing the button. In that moment a woman got out from the building and she saw Daniel pressing the button. She remembered that guy, he always came there to see her.
“Marion is not there, she got out earlier” the woman said
“Alone?” Daniel asked
“No, she was with some guy… I really don’t know who he was… though he looks pretty familiar...”
“How was he?”
“Dark hair… he was tall and thin… I didn’t see him very well actually…”
“Mmm… ok… hey, uh… can I ask you a favor?”
“Yes, of course”
“Would you give her this number? Please tell her to call me, I’m Daniel Gunnar” he gave her a paper
“Ok, Daniel, I will”
“Thanks...”
Meanwhile.
“Lance… finally!”
“Hey Joey… what’s up?”
“I’m here with Chris… we wanted to know what happen… why you’re not going to space, man? What happened?”
“Oh… well… I… it’s a girl…” he explained, “I’m crazy about her…”
“Wow… I… don’t know what to say…” Joey said
“I do… who’s the girl?” Chris asked
“Hahaha… That doesn’t matter now, Chris…” Lance said, “Well… I have to go… I have a couple of meetings now… I’ll see you soon… bye guys”
“Ok… bye Lance” Chris said
“Bye Lance” Joey added.


Chapter 10

“I… I thought you were… traveling…” JC said
“And that’s a reason to bring another girl to your apartment?!” Jenna asked a little bit mad.
“No… no, no, she’s my friend… I swear… she’s Marion… the girl we hit with the bus and lost her memory… remember?” he asked
Marion looked down.
“I’ll better leave, JC...” Marion said
“No wait… come in, wait in the living room… I’ll talk to Jenna…” JC said to Marion, then he looked at Jenna “You come with me…”
He grabbed Jenna’s arm and led her to his room. Marion walked to the living room and sat on a couch.
“Look, baby…” he said, but she interrupted him
“Don’t you dare to call me baby!”
“Well… Jenna… listen to me…” he put his hands on her shoulders, “You know I love you…” JC lied, “I wouldn’t cheat on you… and less with a girl who lost her memory… you believe, right?” he asked
“I don’t know… Why were you holding hands?! Where do you take her?!”
“To the VMA’s…” he looked down
“You went with her to New York? How could you” she asked mad
“We didn’t do anything wrong, I swear...” he lied again
“I can’t trust you!! I wasn’t there!!” She paused, “And why you haven’t called me? Could you give me an answer to that?!”
“I was gonna call you today...”
“JC, please!! How can you be lying like this?!” She paused, “If she’s better than me just say it!”
“But… Jenna... nothing happened...” he lied for the third time
“Yeah… right… You know what, don’t be so innocent!” She turned around, “I know you cheated on me! I see it in your face! But, you know what? I don’t care… ‘Cause I cheated on you too!! And I admit it…” she paused, “I was with you only for your money and because I wanted to become a model!! But I already did it, and I won my own money!!” JC just stared at her surprised, “Are you happy now?!?! Is that what you wanted to hear?!?! What are you gonna say now?!”
“Jenna… how could… I… never… thought… Is this true?” he asked confused.
“Oh… so you wanna hear more?!?!” she paused, “Well… let’s see… this past two years you thought we had the perfect relationship… but you know what? You’re not so good in bed… In this two years I’ve been with so many guys better than you… So much better!!!… You’re not even useful in bed, JC… just money!!!”
JC looked down.
“Do you have anything to say now?” she asked with his arms crossed under her chest.
JC was about tell her about what was happening with Marion, but he didn’t. He sighed looking at the floor. Jenna just stared at him.
“What? Aren’t you gonna say something?” Jenna asked
“What do you want me to say? That I enjoyed your words? That I never felt love for you?… Because that will be a lie…” He paused, “I can’t believe you cheated on me before… but… I did it too…” he said softly
“You’re disgusting!! I’ll better leave!!”
“So… does this mean we’re over?”
“You still think I wanna be with you? I loved you… but not anymore…” She said, “I don’t need your money anymore…”
“So we’re breaking up?”
“Yes we are… now have fun with your little retard…bye!”
Jenna went out of the room and went to the living room. JC was behind her. Jenna looked at Marion.
“I’m happy for you, you don’t remember any other lover you had… but you should have another one… so you can tell he’s not so good in bed”
“Jenna!!” JC yelled at her
Jenna walked towards the door and left the apartment. She sat on the floor of the hallway. Then she started to cry.
“Why?... Why me?” she said crying, “What did I do wrong?... My God… I love him so much… but he doesn’t love me anymore… All because of that girl…” She paused and wiped her tears, “I’m so stupid… How could I tell him all those lies?,,, There’s nothing I can do now…” She stood up, “I’ll find a solution for this… this isn’t over…”
Then Jenna left. Inside JC’s apartment, he walked towards Marion
“We broke up...”
“I can tell...”
None of them spoke.
“Aren’t you happy?”
“I… guess…”
“Come here… I’ll show you my bedroom…”
Marion stood up and hugged JC. He hold her hand and brought her to his room.
“This is my room, you like it?”
“Yeah…”
There was a silence.
“JC… you loved your girlfriend?” she asked
“I beg you pardon?” he said walking towards the window
“You loved Jenna?”
He closed the curtains and stared at her.
“Are you hungry?” he asked avoiding the question
“Would you answer to me?.”
“I made you a question…” he said
“This is not going to work like this, JC… I really wanna now…”
JC hugged her for a moment. Marion released herself from his arms and left the bedroom. She grabbed her purse and walked towards the door.
“You can’t leave…”
“That’s my problem…”
She was about to open the door but he hold her arm, making her purse fell to the floor. He just hugged her.

Chapter 11

“I love you…” he whispered in her ear
Marion turned around and they stood face to face. He kissed her immediately, she kissed him back… his lips were hard to resist. JC hold her in his arms and started walking to the living. After a moment she separated of him.
“What?” he asked softly while he caressed her cheek
“Nothing, I’m… just afraid…”
“Afraid of what?”
“That you cheated on me...”
“That’s not gonna happen, baby…”
“How can I believe you? Probably you said the same thing to Jenna…”
“Just trust me… please…”
“Ok… I will, JC…”
“I asked to call me Josh…”
“Right… Josh…”
He smiled. She went to the door and picked her purse that was on the floor. Then she went back to the living room.
“Hey, uhm… can I use the phone? Nadine must be worried about me…” Marion said.
“Sure, baby… I’ll show you where the phone is…”
JC led her where the phone was and she dialed Nadine’s number after she saw it in her cell phone. She told Nadine that she went to New York with JC. He was staring at her while she was speaking. Marion didn’t say anything about what was happening between them.
“So… will you call tomorrow?” Marion asked
“Yes… I wrote JC’s number… talk to you later…” Nadine paused, “Be careful with him… famous people are not always real…”
“Don’t worry…”
“Ok… bye Marion”
“Bye…”
The day passed regularly. Later, that night, about 10 p.m., they were on the living room watching TV. Marion stood up and went to kitchen, she was thirsty, so she grabbed a soda from the fridge. JC entered the kitchen.
“Sweetie…” JC said
“Are you talking to me?” Marion asked confused
“Who else?”
“I don’t know…”
“I love you…” he walked towards her, “I miss you in the living room”
“I just came here…”
JC put his hands on her waist and pulled her closer to him. He kissed her softly on her lips, and then he kissed her cheek. He smiled at her and started to unbutton her blouse slowly. She just stared at him. JC noticed she was a little scared.
“What is it, sweetie?”
“I’m scared…”
“Don’t be, we’re not doing anything wrong…” he smiled, “come on…”
JC hold her hand and led her to his bedroom. She sat on the bed and he took off his shirt. His body was perfect… JC sat next to her, he finished to unbutton her blouse and took it off.
JC kissed her roughly this time introducing his entire tongue on Marion’s mouth. Meanwhile with one of his hands he started unzipping her pants. His mouth lowed down to her neck.
“Take those pants off” he said softly
Both of them took their pants off, and lay down on the bed with their underwear. JC touched her gently and took off her bra. He watched her breasts and grabbed one of them with his hands.
“Oh… Josh…” she moaned he circled her nipple with his tongue
His lips were warm, Marion never felt this way before… or maybe she felt it, but she couldn’t remember these marvelous sensations. He kept kissing her whole body, and every time she felt his lips on her soft skin, she felt like she was on heaven. After a moment he took off her underwear, JC took off his boxers too.
She just stared at him. He laid on the bed again and kissed her softly.
“It’s gonna be ok… baby…” he said
He took a condom from the nightstand and put in his member. He placed his body on top of her and opened her legs gently.
JC kissed one of her breasts while one of his fingers was inside of her.
“Josh…”
“You’ll be ok…” he said while he inserted another finger.
She was ready… he took his fingers off and kiss her lips. He gently introduced her. JC didn’t want to hurt her…
“Oh God…” she moaned when she felt him inside her
“Are you ok?” he said waiting for her to adjust
“Yeah…”
JC put a finger on her lips and caressed them.
“If you want me to stop… just say it…”
JC started to move slowly and he tried to guide her on her moves.
“Oh… baby… you feel so great…” he said
She was quiet, but his words started to turn her on.
“Josh… this feels good…”
JC noticed she wasn’t afraid anymore, she was enjoying. He increased his speed giving deeper thrusts to her
“Oh God Marion…” he said in her ear
“Josh… I… oh God… I’m feeling that again…”
“Cum with me, baby…”
“Oh…oh… Josh…”
Her walls tightened around JC’s member.
“That’s it baby…” he said
He gave her three more thrusts and he exploded. Both were breathing heavily. It had been perfect. JC had been so gentle with her.
They lay on the bed for awhile, and she hugged him.
“I love you…” JC said
Next morning when she awoke JC wasn’t next to her. She sat on the bed. There was a dressing gown on it. She got up and put it on. She went out of the room and heard some noises in the kitchen. He was singing a song.
Marion entered the kitchen and he noticed it. JC smiled and walked towards her. He kissed her lips softly and tenderly.
“How are you feeling?” he asked
“Good, what are you doing?”
“Making breakfast…”
“I could have done that…”
“Don’t worry… I can do it…”
JC smiled at her and then he hugged her.
“You made so happy last night…” he said in Marion’s ear
“You too… It was wonderful…”
“I’m glad you enjoyed it…”
“So… do you need any help?” she asked
“Yeah… I think I’m not very good at this at all…”
“It’s ok…”
Later, that afternoon, JC and Marion went to Nadine’s apartment.
“Here we are… I’ll pick you up in a couple of hours, ok?” he said
“Okay...”
“Meanwhile I’ll be the mall, if you need anything, just give me call…”
“Cool…” she kissed his lips, “I love you…”
“I love you too” he said before kissing her again
Nadine opened the door in that moment.
“Hi…” Nadine said
They immediately separated
“I’ll see you later...” JC said
“Ok...”
JC kissed her lips one more time and then he left. Nadine stared at Marion, she didn’t understand what was that.
Marion entered the apartment and sat on a couch. Nadine sat next to her. Marion didn’t say a word, it was like she was on the moon.
“Earth calling Marion…” Nadine said
“What?”
“What is it with you?”
“Why?” Marion asked
“You’re in the moon, what are you thinking?”
“Josh…”
“Josh? Since when he became Josh?” she paused, “let’s start from scratch, what happened between you and him?” Nadine said
Marion told her everything from the beginning. She told Nadine what JC have done and said to her. She also told her about their flight to New York and the VMA’s. And she also commented about what happened last night.
“Uhm… Marion… you seem very happy about all this… but… someone is looking for you…” Nadine said
“Really? Who?” she asked curious.
“He was… kinda like your boyfriend… but not an official one…” she paused, “but… all the stuffs you’re doing with JC… you’ve done it whit him…”
“What? I had a boyfriend?”
“No, no exactly… you were just dating him… but then you lost your memory… and now he’s looking for you…” she paused, “If he knows that you’re with somebody else… he might get really mad…”
“But I love Josh…”
“Marion… that’s what you feel now… if you recover your memory again… you’ll forget him… and that could happen anytime… even now!” Nadine explained
“I don’t want to forget Josh…”
“Honey, you can’t control that… you’re not the one who’s gonna suffer about this… JC will… and he seems so in love with you…”
“Why are you telling me this?”
“Daniel will not let you be with JC...”
“Who’s Daniel?” Marion asked confused
“The guy who is looking for you… his name is Daniel Gunnar” Nadine said, “Marion, we’re friends… and… If you love JC, you should leave him now… before you recover your memory…”
Marion didn’t say anything. Would this be true? Will she recover her memory and forget JC? She didn’t want this to happen. She was falling in love of that man…
“Well… Marion… is up to you… I can’t force you to do something you don’t want… just… think about it…” Nadine looked down, “Anyway… you wanna know who I been talking to?”
“Who?” Marion asked
“Lance… JC’s friend, remember him?”
“Oh, yeah, the blond guy with green eyes…”
“Yes…” she smiled, “He told me he was crazy about me… but I don’t know what to do about it… Remember what I told you yesterday?… Sometimes… famous people aren’t real…” she said, “sometimes they just want sex…”
“I don’t think he wanted that… or Josh…”
Marion smiled at her.
“He had been so nice with me…”
Marion sighted.
“So… this Daniel, uh…” Marion said
“Yeah…?”
“How was… my relationship with him?” she asked
“You just hang out… had sex… you know… you were a couple…”
They kept talking, about a bunch of stuffs. After a couple of hours. JC pressed walked to elevator to go pick up Marion. A guy was waiting it too. Both got in, JC pressed 2 button.
“Which floor?” JC asked
“Same floor” the guy answered
The elevator was on the middle of the hallway. When the door opened they both walked in the same direction. Both stopped in front of Nadine’s apartment.
“You know Nadine?” JC asked
“Yes, she’s a friend… and you are?…”
“JC Chasez, nice to meet you” he said extending his hand
“Daniel Gunnar” he shook his hand, “So, you’re his friend too?”
“Sort of… I just came to pick up my girl…”
“Oh… I see…”

Chapter 12
Justin was on his bedroom looking for his black leather jacket. He had to go to a live show, and he was already late.
When he finally found it, he took it and a paper fell down to the floor from one of her jackets. Justin knelt down and took the paper.

He put the paper where it was and wondered who wrote it. Was she cheating on him…? And if she was… why was she doing that…? They were cool… they were having a good relationship…
Justin went to the kitchen where she was. She looked at him and noticed he was too quiet.
“Everything’s ok?”
“Yes… Will you hurry up, we’re really late…” he said walking to the door.
“Ok…”
Meanwhile, the doorbell in Nadine’s apartment sounded.
“It must be Josh, I’ll get it” Marion said.
“Ok”
Marion walked towards the door and opened.
“Hey baby, are you ready to go?” he kissed her lips, “Oh, he’s looking for Nadine, tell her it’s Daniel”
Marion stared at Daniel, she had a strange feeling… like she knew him… but she couldn’t remember who he was.
After a couple of seconds she remembered what she had spoke with Nadine a few moments ago… Daniel… Could he be HER Daniel…?
“Come in” she said nervous, “Nadine is on the living room”
“Thanks”
Nadine walked towards the door while Daniel sat on a couch. She said goodbye to JC and Marion and they left. Then she went to the living room again and sat in front of him.
“Could you explain what I just saw?” Daniel said to Nadine
“I wish I could…”
“She’s my girl! Didn’t you tell her?!”
“Yes… but… she wants to be with him… There’s nothing else I can do…”
“That asshole is not gonna get what belongs to me!!” he said mad, “Who was that guy?!”
“JC Chasez…”
“And who the hell is he?! Where did she fuckin’ met him??”
“He’s from that boy band Nsync… they day of the accident they brought us to the hospital!” Nadine explained.
“So he almost kill you both…! I can’t believe she so stupid to fall from him…”
“They help us… and he wasn’t driving the bus… so… calm down a little, ok?”
Daniel stood up and sat next to Nadine, he put his elbow on his knees and held his head with his hands.
“What am I going to do??” he asked
“I don’t know… it’s not my problem…”
“You have to help me… you’re my friend, right…? Give me an idea, Nadine…”
“I don’t know… hit her on the head… I don’t know, Daniel…” she said
“A hit… good idea…”
Nadine stared at him confused. What the hell was he thinking…? Later, JC and Marion entered her apartment.
“Come in…” Marion said
“Thanks baby”
“I’ll grab some clothes and we could go…”
“Hey uhm… why don’t you…” he paused, “Why don’t you move in with me?”
“What?” she said surprised
“I… want you to live with me… we could… spend more time together… you know…”
She smiled…
“What do you think?” he asked
“Uhm… ok…”
“You’re moving with me??”
“Yeah, sure, why not? I love spending time with you, besides… I’ll feel more safe next to you”
“Good… great actually”
He hugged her from her back.
“I love you, sweetie...”
“I love you too, come on… help me pick some stuffs… so I can start moving in!”
“Ok…”
Marion packed some stuff and then they left the apartment, they wanted to get home soon to see Justin’s performance on TV.
Meanwhile, Justin was on his dressing room. Rachel was next to him, he was talking to her, in that way she will not leave. What he read on the paper didn’t like him, and he didn’t want her to leave.
Rachel stared at him tenderly while he spoke, then she saw her watch and it was almost 8 p.m.
“Hey… I’ll be right back…” she said to him
“No, don’t leave!! Stay here with me...”
“I have to go dress… I’ll be back in a minute…”
“No… don’t go… I wanna be with you...” he insisted
“I know… me too… but I’ll be back soon, I promise…”
“Okay… fine…” Justin said with resignation
Rachel went out of the dressing room. After a moment Justin was ready and he went to find Rachel… Just like the paper said, she was on dressing room #4. He stood outside, but he couldn’t hear very well, so he slowly opened the door…
“Oh… what you want me to say… He’s awesome… I just love him… everything…! His kisses, his whole body… his way of made love… he is just amazing…-” Justin interrupted her entering the dressing room.

Chapter 13
“Who is this guy you’re talking to?” Justin asked
“Is…-” Justin interrupted her
“With who you were supposed to meet here?!” he asked
“With… Susan… Why?”
“Your…” he paused and turned around
“Brother’s wife…” Susan completed the sentence
“That’s right…” he said
“Justin… what’s wrong, honey? Are you ok?” Rachel asked
“I… just thought… I forgot she worked here… and… I found a paper in our room… I thought… You were meeting with someone else… a guy… I… thought you were cheating on me…”
“How could you think that about me, Justin?!” she asked mad.
“I just…”
“I’ll better leave… If you want we can talk after the show, Rachel… See you later, bye Rach…” Susan said
“Ok… Bye Susan...”
Susan left the dressing room and Rachel stared at Justin really mad. She didn’t say anything, she just point at the door as a sign for him to leave the dressing room.
“But, honey…” Justin said walking to her to hug her
“No buts… you my sister-in-law leave… and just because you don’t trust me!! How could you don’t trust me?? I’ve prove you that I love you!!”
“I know… I know… I was so stupid…”
“Go… we’ll talk later…”
“But, Rach...” he insisted
“Justin leave! Now…!”
“Fine!!! I’m outta here!!!” he said angrily
Rachel bite his bottom lip… She held his arm before he could leave.
“Wait…” she paused, “I’m sorry… I… don’t want you to leave…” Rachel said
“No…” he stared her, “I’m sorry… I never should distrust you…”
Justin kissed her lips softly.
“I love you” Justin said moving his nose against hers
“I love you too… let’s not fight again…”
“Sure, baby…”
Meanwhile.
“No, no, no… she’s mine!! That idiot stole her!!!” Daniel said.
“You’re obsess with her, Daniel...”
“No… I love her, Nadine… don’t you see it…? And it hurts me that she could not remember who I am...”
“Look… why don’t you talk to her… I can invite her tomorrow to have dinner and I can leave… It’ll be just you and her…”
“That sounds good...”
“You can stay here tonight if you want… sleep on the guests room” she said
“Oh… cool… thanks”
JC and Marion were on the living room watching TV watching Justin’s performance. After the show finished, JC turned off the TV and stared at her.
“Let’s go sleep…”
“Ok… That sounds good… I’m really tired…”
The phone rang in that moment.
“I’ll pick up, don’t worry” he said, “hello?”
“JC? It’s Nadine…”
“Oh, hi, you wanna talk to Marion?”
“Yes please…”
“Ok… hold on…” he stared at Marion, “Baby, it’s Nadine… she wants to talk to you…”
“Oh… ok” she stood up and grabbed the phone, “Hi Nadine”
“Hey… I wanted to invite you to have dinner tomorrow…”
“Cool…”
“So… I’ll see you tomorrow then… Around 6:30 p.m.?”
“Ok… thanks for the invitation… bye Nadine”
“Bye”
She hung up, JC stood next to her.
“What happened?”
“She invite us to have dinner tomorrow…”
“Oh… ok…” she hold her hand, “let’s go sleep…”
“Ok…”
They went to bed and Marion fell asleep immediately. Next morning, when JC awoke, Marion wasn’t next to her. He got up and put on a dressing gown.
“Baby, where are you?” he asked
There was no answer… but he heard crying from the bathroom. He started knocking at the door a little desperate.
“Baby!! What happened?! Open the door!”
“Josh… I’m dying...!” she cried from inside the bathroom
“What? Open up!” he ordered
Marion opened the door and JC hugged her immediately.
“What?! What happened?!” he asked desperate
“Josh… I’m dying…”
“Why you’re saying that!? What’s wrong?!”
“I’m bleeding… Didn’t you see the bed… It was all full of blood!!” she cried, “Look at the floor… I can’t stop it…”
JC looked at the floor and he understood she wasn’t dying, she was on her period.
“Baby… sit there” he pointed the toilet, “Calm down… you’re not gonna die… don’t cry… you’ll be ok…”
“Will I?” she asked
“Yes…” he said kneeling next to her, “I think Nadine didn’t mention this to you… but… don’t worry… this is normal in all women, ok?” He dried her tears, “Don’t cry anymore… it’s alright…”
“Why am I bleeding?” she asked
“You’re on your period… you just need some pads, ok?… I’ll go buy you some… just… wait here on the bathroom… I’ll be right back…”
“Ok…” she said
JC put some clothes on and when immediately to the nearest market he found.
After half an hour he came back and went to the bathroom and he told her what to do with the pads.
Later that afternoon, he was watching her while she was washing the dishes they’ve used for lunch.
“Josh… Nadine told me something yesterday...”
“What did she said?” JC asked
“That… if I recover my memory, I will not remember who you are… Is it true?” Marion asked
“I don’t know… it could be true… but… we can go ask a doctor if you want…”
“Ok… I really want to know if that’s true...”
“Don’t worry…” JC paused, “Maybe… I could buy some tapes and we can record us… you know… just in case…”
“I like that idea…” she smiled

Chapter 14
Lance was on the airport waiting to board the plane; he was flying back to Orlando that day. His cell phone rang, he answered the call, but he didn’t check who was calling.
“Hello?” he said
“Where are you?” A woman asked
“What do you want, Diane?”
“I wanted to say I’m sorry… I wanted to take back everything I said… I want to be with you…”
“It’s too late, Diane… I’m boarding a plane to Orlando”
“But Lance!!”
“No buts, Diane…!” he paused, “Look, I can’t talk right now, ok? I’ll talk to you later… and… please… just understand this… If you don’t wanna be my friend, this is over between us… I love someone else, don’t you understand that?”
“This is not over, Lance… I’ll go to Orlando as soon as I can… bye…” she said.
Lance sighted and turned off his cell phone. Meanwhile, JC and Marion went out to the mall after lunch and now they were going to Nadine’s apartment. JC wasn’t very happy… he didn’t know why, but there was something on Nadine that he didn’t like much…
Marion pressed the doorbell and a few seconds later Daniel opened the door. Marion turned pale, but JC didn’t notice, Daniel did, though.
What was he doing there? Why Nadine didn’t tell her he was invited too…? Daniel looked at them. JC was not supposed to come. When Nadine called Marion she never mention JC was invited…
“Hi…” she said nervous, “Is Nadine at home…?”
“No… someone called her from work… she had to leave…” Daniel said, “But… come in… I was making dinner with her… I’m about to finish… and she’ll be here soon…”
“Good… I’m glad you’re here” JC said, “I thought it was going to be me with two girls… so you save me…” he joked
“Yeah… I guess I did… JC, right?”
“Right… and you’re Daniel…” he said, “and this is my girlfriend… Marion” JC said to Daniel
“She’s beautiful… nice choice for a girlfriend” he looked at her, “come in…”
“Thanks...” JC said.
JC grabbed her arm and forced Marion to come inside. She didn’t say a word; she just sat on a couch.
“We brought a bottle of wine…” JC put it on the table
“Good… I’ll be right back” Daniel said before he entered the kitchen.
“What is it, baby? You’re to quiet…” JC said to Marion
“Is just… I don’t like him… at all…”
“What…? Why…? He seems nice… Why don’t you like him?”
“I… is just… Nadine told me…” Daniel interrupted their conversation
“Dinner’s ready… come sit…”
“Ok…” JC stared at Marion, “let’s talk about later, ok?”
“Ok…”
The three of them started having dinner, everything was cool, Daniel didn’t say anything about his relationship with Marion before the accident, in fact, he told JC he didn’t know her. But obviously Marion knew he was lying.
“Uhm… will you excuse… I need to go to the bathroom…” JC said standing up
“It’s at the end of the hallway… left door” Daniel said.
“Thanks”
“I’ll go with you…” Marion said standing up too
“But, baby… you should stay here… don’t be rude… I can go alone… Besides… I’ll be right back…”
“Yeah… JC’s right… He’ll be here in a minute Marion…” Daniel said, “You can stay here… I don’t bite, don’t worry…”
Marion sat again and looked at her dish, JC entered to the bathroom. Both remained silence until he spoke.
“So… are you in love?”
“Of who?” she asked staring at him
“Your boyfriend… of course...”
“Yes...” she paused, “Why did you tell JC you didn’t know me? Nadine told me who you are… I know I was dating you before the accident… Why did you lie?”
“I don’t want to cause troubles for now…”
She stared at him a little confused because of his words.
“I’m sorry if I can’t remember you, but it’s not my fault…” she said
“You’re not really sorry…” he said, “And… I gotta tell you, Marion… you fall in love with the wrong guy… he caused all this…”
“JC wasn’t driving the bus...”
“I don’t care who the hell was driving… the only thing that matters to me is that I love you… and he’s keeping you away from me…” he said a little mad, “And… he’ll have to pay for that, Marion…”
“You wouldn’t dare to touch him…”
“Oh… I will…”
JC came back from the bathroom in that moment and sat next to them again. He noticed something strange was happening.
“What were you talking about?” JC asked.
“Nadine… and how nice she is… right Marion?” Daniel said
“Yeah…”
Nadine arrived a few moments after they finished dinner. Marion and JC soon left Nadine’s apartment.
Marion was worried. Was Daniel serious? Would he made JC pay for keeping her away from him…?
When JC and Marion came to his apartment, Marion went to bed immediately… JC entered the bathroom to take a quick shower. When he came out Marion was already sleeping. JC went to bed and covered his body with the sheets, when he did it Marion awoke.
“Is just me, baby… don’t worry…” he said before he kissed her forehead
“Ok…”
“I love you, sleep tight”
“Ok… you too…”
JC hugged her, but she couldn’t sleep now. A few minutes later she spoke again.
“Josh… I want to tell you something about Daniel...”
“Daniel…? What’s wrong with him?” JC asked.
“He… lied today...”
“When?”
“When he said he didn’t know me…” she paused, “He and I… we’re a couple before I had the accident...”
“What…? Baby… don’t joke with me...”
“I’m not joking… Nadine told me that the other day… and now… Daniel is jealous about you… and he wants to hurt you…”
“Look… I don’t know what stupid ideas Nadine put in your head… and it seems like she didn’t like me at all…” he paused, “But probably she made this up just for you to leave me… or… I don’t know… Just… don’t think about that… just sleep, baby…”
“But… is true… you have to believe me…”
“What do you want me to say? Daniel seems nice to me, and he was really kind today… I don’t think he wants to hurt me…”
“Why you don’t believe me?!” she yelled sitting on the bed
“Don’t yell… and… I don’t believe because… it’s stupid…”
“So you think I’m making this up?!” she paused, “I had a life before you came into my life!! If I can’t remember, it isn’t my fault!!” she paused again, “And if someone tell me things about my past life… What do you expect me to do?!?! I can’t remember anything of what I live…!!” she yelled desperate
“Ok, ok… I believe you… now, please… would you stop yelling? Get some rest…” he said
“I will! But not here with you!!”
Marion got up from the bed and went out of the room. He watched her leave. Marion went to the living room, sat on the loveseat and waited for him. She knew he was going to go there and tell her to go to bed.
After a moment he was there. JC knelt in front of her.
“C’mon Marion… don’t be mad at me… try to understand me…” he said
“Understand what…? You really think I made this up?” she asked
“But… it’s ridiculous… Why will he hurt me?”
“Will you believe or not?”
JC sighed and looked at her tenderly.
“Ok… I believe you… but please, don’t be mad at me…”
“Ok…”
He held her hand and they went to the room again. Both fall asleep almost immediately.

Chapter 15

On the next day, JC and Marion went to the hospital. The doctor told them that if she recover her memories, not necessary will forget what she lived after the accident.
“Maybe she will remember everything, or maybe she will not remember what she lived” The doctor said, “There’s also a chance that she could remember some things, maybe some details, not the most important things sometimes…” he paused, “It is impossible to know the way it will happens if it happens…”
Anyway, JC didn’t worry a lot, he believed that if he recorder some tapes of them she will remember everything…

A month passed… JC tried to avoid that Marion see Nadine, but it was almost impossible to do it, they were friends, and he couldn’t do anything about it. Besides, JC was working on some demos, so he was busy once in a while
Nadia was having a relationship with Lance, she was a little bit worried, because he didn’t want to make love with her yet, but she didn’t say anything about it, she doesn’t want to seem desperate. On the other hand, Diane, was in Orlando, and she was always bothering Lance.
Justin and Rachel were still having his relationship, with the typical problems they could have: jealousy, tours, rehearsals, and etceteras…
Daniel was creating a “plan” to get Marion back with him… it was like his mission…
“Why don’t you let her see Nadine?” Lance asked to JC
“It’s not that… Is just… She put so many crazy ideas on Marion’s mind… I’ve told you that…”
“It’s not crazy ideas… it’s true… I’ve talked with Nadine too”
“Yeah, I know… I just don’t want her to see Nadine, ok?! Can stop talking about this?” JC said, “So… did Diane stop bothering you?”
“No… she called me every single day… It’s frustrating me… I don’t know what to do about it…”
“Why don’t you put a withdrawal order and sue her?”
“I don’t wanna sue her, JC”
“You should…” he paused, “Lance… can I ask you something…
“Yeah, what?”
“Does Daniel stopped visiting Nadine?”
“No, he still goes there… and I believe he knows where you live…”
“How did he find it out?” JC asked
“I don’t know… I guess Nadine told him… I don’t know… but… What can he do?”
“Yeah… you’re right… is just… I’m sick and tired of him…he always called Marion…”
After awhile, they both left the studio. JC went buy some Chinese food to take it to the apartment.
Meanwhile, Marion was on the dinning table using JC’s laptop. In that moment the phone door sounded. Who could be pressing the button on the first floor…? Was it a kid…? She walked towards it
“Hello?” She said
“Hi… will you open the door, please?” a male voice asked
“Who is this?”
“JC… don’t you recognize me?”
“Why don’t you use your door keys?” she asked doubtful
“I left them on the studio...”
“Is it really you?”
“Of course I am...” the voice said
“You don’t sound like Josh…”
“I think I’m kinda sick…”
“Tell the janitor to open the door…”
“I don’t see him around...”
“Fine... I’ll open...”
JC was putting the food on the backseat, and then he started driving to the apartment.
They knocked at JC’s apartment. Marion put the chain on the door so that way it won’t open completely. She had her doubts… she didn’t know if it was JC who was talking… She looked on the peephole and saw Daniel with a guy she didn’t know.
“Why did you lie to me? You think I’m stupid?” Marion said opening the door with the chain on the door.
“Axel did a good job talking to you...” Daniel said, “Let me in... I need to talk to you...”
“No! Besides... I don’t know who that guy is...”
“This is Axel... you used to know him... he’s a friend of mine...” he explained
“How did you know JC was on the studio?” she asked
“That’s my problem... Now let me in!!!” Daniel yelled
“Go away... or I will call the police...”
“That doesn’t scare me... Now let me in, Marion!!!”
Daniel forced the door and the little chain broke, so the door opened completely, then he walked towards her. JC was driving home in that moment, and he didn’t know why, but he had a bad feeling… he just didn’t know what it was…
Daniel had Marion taken by her wrists and he was interrogating her. Axel was outside the apartment.
“Leave me alone!!!” Marion yelled
“Just answer what I asked, Marion!!!!!” Daniel said mad
“No! Please leave!!! JC will be really mad if he finds you here!!”
“I don’t care!!!”
“Let me go!!!”
Marion released her wrists from Daniel’s hands. In that moment Axel knocked at the door.
“What?” Daniel asked
“Someone is coming up in the elevator…”
“Get in”
“You think is JC?” Axel asked
“It must be… stay behind the door… we’ll attack him after he gets in” he said to Axel
“No! You’re not going to attack him!” Marion said
“Just shut up”
Daniel took her by her arm and sat her on a chair, and then he tied her there.
“You better don’t move” Daniel warned
The door apartment opened in that moment… Meanwhile…
“Rachel, get in the car” Justin said to Rachel
“Yeah… I’m coming” she said sitting next to him
“Do you think JC will be mad if we go see him and Marion?”
“I don’t think so… he’s one of your best friends…”
Justin started driving to JC’s apartment.
JC entered his apartment and saw Marion tied on the chair.
“Don’t go inside!!!!” she screamed
“Who the hell did this to you?!” JC asked
He ran to the chair to untied her.

Chapter 16

“What are you saying?” Lance asked amazed
“That’s what Daniel said to me when he called me...”
“How is it possible that he wants to kill JC?!”
“He wants Marion by his side… I know him… he will do it if he has the chance, Lance”
“But...” he paused, “I will go see JC and warn him!!”
“Lance, be careful, please!! He could hurt you…!!”
“Don’t worry… I will be careful…”
He went out of the apartment and ran to his car, he got in and he started driving to JC’s apartment. Meanwhile, JC was trying to untie Marion.
“JC!! Daniel is behind you!!” she screamed desperate
“Daniel?” he asked confused.
JC turned around to face him, and he just could see two guys. Axel grabbed JC by his arms and put him in front of Daniel. Daniel started punching him on the face, and then he kicked JC on his stomach.
JC tried hard to defend himself, but it was impossible, Axel was stronger than him. JC’s face was full of blood and he was breathing heavily.
“You thought you can have her just like that… you asshole!!” Daniel said angry.
“You’re... gonna... pay... for this...” JC said weakly
“If I kill you now… I will never pay this to you”
“And... what do... you win... with that…?... She loves… me…”
“Shut the fuck up!!!!” Daniel said furious.
Daniel punched him again on his JC.
“Daniel… please… stop… I beg you… stop it…”
“Just let him…” Daniel said to Axel.
Axel released JC and he fell to the floor immediately. JC was too weak to stand up… Daniel walked towards Marion and untied her. She wanted to help JC, but Daniel didn’t let her do it.
“I’ll not kill him… but you’re coming with me…” Daniel said to Marion
“No…!! I won’t go with you!!!”
“Shut up, Marion!!!”
Daniel grabbed her arm and forced her to walk to the door.
“Don’t… take… her… away…” JC said weakly.
Axel grabbed a little table that was near JC and broke it in his back. Then he followed Daniel.
In the first floor, Justin was parking his car and he saw Lance running to the entrance of the building.
“Isn’t that Lance?” Rachel asked
“Yeah… that’s weird… I wonder why he is so hurried…?” Justin said, “Rach, would you mind parking the car…? I’ll go see what’s going on…”
“Ok, I’ll do it”
Justin went out of the car, entered the building and reached for Lance, who was waiting for the elevator.
“Hey Lance, what’s up? Why you’re so hurry?” Justin asked
“We have to go see JC!!” Lance answered desperate
“Ok… just… calm down… what’s wrong...”
“It’s JC!!”
“What’s wrong with JC?!”
“Marion…!! His old boyfriend…!!!”
“Lance…!!” Justin said, “Calm down…!! Explain to me what’s going on!!”
Lance sighted deeply.
“Daniel, Marion’s old boyfriend... He came to find her… and… he told Nadine that he will kill JC if he had the chance…!!”
“What?!”
Daniel, Axel and Marion were on the elevator going down. When the doors opened they saw Lance and Justin in front of them.
“Marion!” Lance said
“Lance!! Please help me…!!” she said
Lance walked towards Daniel and started fighting with him, Justin did it too. Axel had Marion in his arms, but when he saw two guys were beating Daniel he let her go. Axel grabbed Justin’s arm and pulled him away, but Justin was a little bit stronger than him, and the only thing that Axel achieve was some punches on his face.
In that moment, Rachel entered the building and saw all fighting. The janitor of the building was already calling the police.
Marion waste no time and asked a master key to the janitor, then she took the elevator and went to the apartment.
“Josh… honey!!! Are you ok??” she said bending down next to him.
“No… my back… it hurts…”
“Can you stand up?”
“No… I’m too… weak… let me rest for a little… where is… Daniel??”
“Lance and Justin got him down there…” Marion said, “Don’t speak anymore, Josh…”
“Ok…”
After an hour and a half, the janitor called Marion and told her that police took the two guys, and Justin, Lance and Rachel were going to the apartment. Marion opened the door and the three of them entered the apartment.
“The police took them both?” Marion asked
“Yes… they’re going to a trial… you and JC will have to testify…” Justin said
“You have to sue them, Marion” Rachel said
“Hum… yeah well… I’ll talk with Josh about it later…” Marion answered, “Now… will you help me…? He can’t stand up…”
Justin and Lance walked towards JC.
“Marion… are you ok?” Rachel asked
“Yeah… I…” she paused
Rachel hugged her in that moment. Obviously she was fine physically, because Daniel didn’t hurt her, but she was still scared and a little shocked. It had been a dangerous situation; Daniel could have killed the man she loved.
Justin knelt down next to JC.
“We’ll help you stand up, C” Justin said
“Ok… just… be careful… please…” JC said, “My back… is hurting… me… so much…”
“You have so much blood in your face…” Lance said, “You should go the doctor tomorrow morning to check if you’re ok…”
Lance and Justin stood him up and put him on a couch. JC complained when they done it, because he was in pain.
It seems like all the blood and the pain were just for the moment. But they called a doctor anyway, who prescribed him some medicines for the pain.
JC thanked everyone for helping him and Marion, he didn’t know why they were there, but he didn’t care. He was happy just because they were.
“Guys… I need… to ask you… something…” JC said “I want you… to stay… here tonight… I don’t want… that… Marion feel lonely…”
“Fine… I can stay… I don’t know if Rachel and Justin can…” Lance said
“Oh… sure… no problem… If its ok with Rachel, of course…” Justin looked at her.
“Yeah… it’s ok…”
Justin and Lance helped JC again, this time to take him to his bedroom. After they did it, they all left the room.
“Are you ok?” Marion asked
“I feel… a little… better… Don’t… worry baby…” JC answered, “And… what about you?”
“I’m fine… but… I was so scared, Josh… I can’t believe he did this… and he punch you like that… it was awful…”
“Why… you let him… come up here…?” JC asked confused
“The other guy spoke… and he said it was you…”
“And… you… believed… him…?”
“He said he left his keys on the studio…” she said, “I thought it might be you… his voice sound different though” she stared at him, “I don’t know why he knew you were on the studio… he must have been watching us…”
“Don’t worry… about it… anymore… we’ll sue him… and… the only thing… that matters now… is that… we’re ok… he didn’t do… anything to you…”
“But he did to you… and… I just can’t believe it, Josh…”
“Relax baby… everything is… ok now…”
JC unbuttoned his shirt and he complained a little. His arms were hurting him, because of the way Axel held him.
“You need some help?” she asked
“Uhm… yes… please…”
Marion got closer to JC and helped him take off his shirt. She did it carefully for not hurting him.
“Did I hurt you?” Marion asked
“Just… a little… but my arms… and back… they hurt me…”
“With the medicine you will feel better, Josh” she said
“I love you” JC said suddenly, “Thanks… for… helping me…”
Marion stared at him. His eyes were looking straight to hers… she just smiled.
“I love you too…”
Then, she knelt down in front of him and helped him to take off his pants. His legs didn’t hurt him too much, but anyway she helped him.
“Get in the bed now… be careful… ok?”
“Yes… I will be…careful…” he said.
Carefully he got inside and covered his body with the sheets. She went to the bathroom and gently cleaned his face with a wet towel.
After this she got inside the bed too. She tried to sleep… what happened during the day wasn’t nice… she needed to rest, to forget for a moment… but it was almost impossible to stop thinking about it.
After a moment she felt JC’s hand on her waist. He was ok… he was alive… Daniel said he was going to kill him, but he didn’t… She thought about JC again… His man was ok, next to her… breathing…
She smiled slightly… and then she fell asleep.

Next day, Justin woke up and Rachel wasn’t next to him, either her clothes or purse. There was no sign of her.

Justin went to the living room where Lance was.

“Did you see Rachel?” Justin asked to Lance

“Oh… yes, she left a few moments ago, she said she had some stuffs to do… and that she will come back to have lunch, so… you have to wait for her…”

“Didn’t she say where she was going?”

“No… she just said you wait for her…”

Lance stared at him.

“You seem worried, is everything ok?” Lance asked

“Is… Rachel…” Justin paused a second, “Her behavior… she’s not the same now…”

“Why you say that?”

“She had been… a little distant…  I think she doesn’t love me anymore… at least… not the way she does before…”

         In that moment JC arrived there. He heard the last part of the conversation Justin and Lance were having. 

“Who doesn’t love you anymore?” JC asked

“JC…!! You’re ok… you’re walking alone…! How are you feeling?” Justin asked.

“Better… I can walk alone now… but… my back and my thorax still hurt…”

“It’s good you’re feeling better…” Lance added

“So… who were you talking about? Who doesn’t love you anymore?” JC asked to Justin

“Rachel… she’d been distant...”

“Maybe you’re just imaging it, Justin…”

“No… It’s true…” Justin affirmed, “I can feel it… she’s different… she’s not the same anymore…”

“Why do you think that is?” Lance asked.

“I… think she’s… seeing someone else…” Justin said looking down, “I just… don’t want that… I don’t want another failed relationship… please God…” he started to cry.

         JC hugged him.

“Don’t be like that… you’re not sure about that… you don’t know what’s going on… and you should talk to her about this…” JC said

“JC’s right, Justin… I really believe she loves you…” Lance added

“I don’t know what’s wrong with her”

“Don’t cry, it breaks my heart to see you like this…” JC said, “Ok... you now what? I’m gonna get dress and we are all going to lunch, alright?”

“Yeah, that’s a good idea” Lance said

“I… prefer to go home…” Justin added

“No, no, no… you’re coming with us… so don’t say any other word” JC replied.

“But I need to go to my apartment anyway… I need to change my clothes…” Justin exclaimed

“We’ll pass over there” JC said

“Well… in that case I need to change my clothes too” Lance added

“Then we’re going to pass over there too…”

         After awhile, they were all in the car, they have already gone to Lance’s apartment, and they were going to Justin’s now. Lance and Justin totally forgot that Rachel was gonna go to JC’s apartment again…

When they arrived to the building, JC parked his car and Justin went out of the car and went to his apartment.

“Rachel!!” he said opening their bedroom door

“Justin! What are you doing here??”

“I…”

“I told Lance I was going back to JC’s apartment…” she said

“We forgot it… we were going to have lunch… I came here to change my clothes…”

“You were going without me?”

“Well… if you wanna go you can go…”

“No, actually… I don’t want to…”

         Justin opened his wardrobe and took some clean clothes. He had already taken a shower on JC’s apartment so he just had to change his clothes.

He sat on the bed and started taking off his clothes.

“Where were you?” Justin asked

“I… went… shopping…”

         Justin was buttoning his clean shirt and stared at her, when she noticed he was she looked somewhere else.

“Why you’re not telling me the truth, Rach?”

“I’m telling you the truth…”

“Rachel! Would you stop it! I’ve notice how distant you are with me!” he said while he put some clean underwear.

“I’m not distant… is just…” she stared at him

“You can tell me anything…” he said putting a jean on, “Is it… that you’re seeing someone else?” he said sadly and not staring at her.

“Justin! How could you say that? I thought jealousy wasn’t a problem between us anymore…!”

“But… then… explain to me the reason of your behavior… ‘Cause… I don’t get it…”

“I…” she looked at him

“What…?” he said combing his hair in front of a mirror

“Would you look at me for a moment?”

         Justin turned around and stared at her. He was serious… worried… he didn’t new what was coming now…

“What?”

“Justin… I…can’t dance anymore with you…” Rachel started to say

“Why?” he asked disappointed

“’Cause I have to leave…”

“Where?”

“Alaska…”

“But… why?”

         Meanwhile on JC’s car.

“He’s taking too long…” JC said

“Yeah… I’ll go tell him to hurry up” Lance answered

         Lance got down of the car and walked towards the building’s entrance. JC looked at Marion

“I have to tell you something” he said to Marion

“What?”

“I have to go to New Orleans in a couple of days… they told me yesterday… and well… with all this Daniel drama… I…”

“Do you want me to go with you?”

“Well… you can’t… that’s the problem… They asked not to go with you, so… I’ll talk with any of the guys to check if you could stay with them or someone can stay with you… I can’t leave you alone”

“But I want to go with you…”

“I would love if you could go with me… but, I’m sorry… you can’t go…” he explained

         Lance pressed the door bell on Justin’s apartment.

“Don’t open… tell me now why you’re leaving…” Justin demanded

“Someone’s calling… it might be important… I’ll get it…”

“No, don’t!! You’re gonna tell me now!!” he grabber her arm

“Let me go, Justin!!” she said releasing her arm

         Rachel went our of the room and opened the door… it was her only way to avoid talking about her problem…

“Rachel!!” Lance said when he saw her

“Hi Lance, Justin is in our bedroom…”

         Lance entered to the apartment and went to the bedroom to find Justin, meanwhile Rachel entered to the kitchen.

“J, what’s up…? JC is really hungry… he wants to go” Lance said, “is Rachel coming?”

“No, neither do I… she had something to tell me… and she would have told me if you weren’t here”

“I’m sorry… what happened?”

“I’ll tell you later… when I know everything that’s going on, the only she said to me is that she had to leave to Alaska for some reason… Now… please… leave us alone… have fun with JC, ok?”

“Ok, good luck!” he said leaving the room, “Bye Rachel!!” he screamed to her

“Bye Lance!”

         A couple of minutes later, Justin went to the kitchen to continue with their conversation. Rachel thought that Justin left the apartment with Lance, she thought he was mad because she didn’t want to keep talking about why she had to leave to Alaska.

“He doesn’t even say goodbye… he doesn’t love me anymore…” she said, “It’s impossible that he wants a child… I should leave right now… and not telling him anything…”

         Suddenly, Justin opened the door and stared at her. Their eyes met.

“Justin!!”

“I’ve heard you! You’re pregnant! Right?!” he asked

“No… Why do you say that?”

“Rachel, tell me the truth!! I heard you!”

“Fine… yes… I’m pregnant!”

“But Rachel… Why didn’t you tell me this?” Justin asked holding her by her arms.

“’Cause… I thought… You… Your career… I didn’t want to ruin that…”

“Oh my God, Rachel… how could you possibly think that?”

“I thought…” she paused

“You silly girl…” he kissed her, “I love you…”

“I love you too…”

“So… how many weeks do you have?”

“5 weeks…”

“Mmm… don’t you were anticipating a little with the whole thing… quitting the dance… and all that…”

“I wanted to leave before you noticed anything…” Rachel said.

“Well, that doesn’t matter anymore… now the first thing we have to do is get married…”

“What? Get married?”

“Well… yes… we’ll be happy together… So… we have to plan the wedding… and… tonight we will announce the guys everything… I’m thinking on a party… here… tonight, what do you think?” He said everything quickly.

“Tonight?”

“Yeah… I’ll call the guys… you… take a shower, comb your hair… make up… and relax… ok?”

“Don’t you think this is to rush?”

“Who cares?! I’ll be the happiest guy on earth with you by my side…”

“You’re so sweet…”

“So… why you were so distant?” Justin asked

“I didn’t want to ruin your life… that’s why I thought it will be better if I left the state without telling you… but… I didn’t want to hurt your feelings, that the reason why I started to get some distance with you…” Rachel explained.

“But I love you… and you know that…” he said

         Rachel smiled.

“Johnny is going to kill me when he finds this out… but… I don’t care…” Justin said.

“I love you so much…”

         Justin smiled this time and then he kissed her softly on her lips.

During the day they bought some stuffs for the party. After lunch, Lance went to Nadine’s apartment in order to give JC and Marion some time for themselves.

JC and Marion were on their way to Justin’s apartment. She didn’t spoke during the day, she was a little mad. JC felt guilty about it, he understood her madness… After what happened the day before, it was obvious that she didn’t want to stay alone. But actually it wasn’t JC’s fault, he was just obeying orders. Besides, she insisted that JC wanted to go alone because he had another woman.

They were on the car, Marion was looking at the street. The Celebrity album was playing background, for some reason she felt more peaceful when she heard his music… “Selfish” was playing…

"So what’s wrong with being selfish…

...I'll be takin’ up your time

Till the day I make you realize

That for you there could be no one else

Baby I would take good care of you

No matter what it is you're going through

Baby believe in me

Cuz if love is a crime

Then punish me

I would die for you

What can I do?

You can call me selfish

But all I want it's your love..."

JC turned the volume down and Marion stared at him.

“Why you turn it down?” she asked

“Are u still mad?”

“I’m not mad”

“Yeah right… like I could believe that after all the things you said…”

“What I said… it was the truth…”

“So… do you doubt about my love for you?” JC asked

“I didn’t say that…”

“But that was your point when you said that I wanted to go alone to be with another woman… I’ll never cheat on you… How could you think that?”

“You said the same thing to Jenna… and you cheated on her with me…”

“But… it’s different… I haven’t been anyone…”

“Oh… so… that means that if you had the chance you probably will do it…”

“Don’t put words on my mouth…”

“You know what… I don’t want to hear you anymore…”

         She turned the volume up, the song was already ending. JC sighed and stopped talking.

"...Selfishly I'm in love with you

Cuz I've searched my soul to know that it's you...

Selfishly I'm in love with you

Cuz I've searched my soul to know that it's you...

Selfishly I'm in love with you

Cuz I've searched my soul to know that it's you...

To prove that I’m the only one for you

So what's wrong with being selfish, selfish, selfish

So what's wrong with being selfish... yeah"

         Mean while.

“What? What do you mean you’re in prison?” Nadine asked

“I am in prison… please come here to take me out… you’re my friend, please help me…”

“No, Daniel! I won’t help you… Because you hurt Marion and I won’t forgive you that…”

“I didn’t hurt her; you know I love Marion… I’ll never hurt her…” Daniel said.

“But you hurt JC… and that causes her pain… so you hurt Marion too, I will not trust you anymore…” Nadine said, “I think you miss your call, bye…”

         Nadine hung up the phone and Daniel stood there with the receiver on his hands, cursing Nadine. A police man came there and took him back to the prison with Axel.

“She said she wouldn’t take us out…”

“Damn it…” Axel said

“Don’t worry… We’ll get out of here… there’s got to be a way…”

         Later that day, all the guys were on Justin’s apartment, except for Chris who was a little late.

“I love you…” Rachel said to Justin

“I love you too…”

“This is cute… I’m sorry to interrupt” JC said, “Rachel, would let me talk to Justin for a moment?”

“Sure…” she said, and then she walked to the table to grab a snack.

“What’s up?” Justin asked

“It’s Marion… she doubts about my love for her… she thinks I’m cheating on her”

“So… that’s the reason why she hasn’t been with you the whole night”

“Yes… she’s mad at me because I told her I can’t bring her to New Orleans with me…” JC said, “They asked not to bring her, in that way I’ll not get distracted… and now she believes I’m cheating on her, and that’s not the real reason…”

“I’ll give you an advice JC…” Justin said, “Look… If I were you… I’ll say fuck to New Orleans and I’d stay here with Marion”

“Really?”

“Sure… in that way… you’ll never finish your album, don’t sell more than mine and you don’t ruin my solo career…” he said laughing

“Very funny…”

“No… I’m just kidding… but, seriously…” he said, “You’re the one who has to put the conditions… don’t let them impose them… just say that if she can’t go with you, you will not go…”

“I guess you’re right… I’ll talk with Johnny about this tomorrow” JC said, “So... what is up with Rachel? It seems like everything is good now… Where is the crying kid of this morning?”, he laughed, “Why this party, J?”

“You’ll know later… the only thing I can tell you, is that Rachel is the most wonderful and beautiful person in the whole world… and she will never ever cheat on me…”

“Please… tell me now…”

“Later, C…”

         JC walked towards Marion, she was at the balcony looking at the sky.

“Sweetie?”

“What’s up?” she asked

“I wanted to tell you something…” JC answered

“If it is about New Orleans… I don’t wanna know…”

“Okay…”

         JC hugged her from her back and laid his head on her shoulder.

“What do you want?” Marion asked

“To tell you that... I’ll put my conditions… I’ll say if you can’t go with me to New Orleans, then I won’t go… you inspire me, you give me confidence and… if you’re not there, there’s no way I could work…”

“Are you really gonna do that?”

“Yes, ‘cause I want you to be with me... I love you”

“I love you too…”

After awhile, Chris came with a girl named Stephanie, he introduced her as his girlfriend, all of them were surprised about it, he was a casanova. Finally he received congrats from all of them.

A few minutes later, Justin asked everyone’s attention.

“I have big news… well…” he hugged Rachel, “Actually we have good news…”

“What is it about?” JC asked

“I’ll say it… ‘cause I’m sure you’re very puzzled about what’s going on”

“Just speak...” Lance said

“Well… Rach and I... we’re gonna get married…” Justin said smiling

         The four band mates were surprised and speechless after Justin’s words. They stared each other while all the girls where congratulating Justin and Rachel.

JC reacted and came closer to him to congratulate him, the other three guys did the same.

“So, when is the wedding?” JC asked

“December, before Christmas…” Justin answered

“So soon? Aren’t you gonna be busy with the tour?”

“No… I’ll postpone it if I have to… my family is more important…” Justin assured

“Which family?” Lance asked, “Is just you and Rachel…”

“Oh... well... there’s something else you should know…”

“Which other surprise do you have?” Chris asked

“Rachel is pregnant…”

“There you have a family…” Joey said joking

“But, wouldn’t that be a problem in you solo career?” Lance asked to Justin.

“It doesn’t have to be a problem, besides... this is my choice…”

“Well, Justin... you know you can count with us on anything you need, we’re like brothers and we will always support you… even if we’re miles away, right guys?” JC said.

         The rest of the guys answered yes. After this they all kept having fun at the party.

Two weeks later, JC and Marion flew to New Orleans. Daniel and Axel were still in prison. JC had sue them and obviously the court support JC, because of this, both guys will be on prison until February, unless JC decided they could be free, and if they were, JC and Marion will have a restraining order against them.

Justin was traveling and Rachel joined him. Joey was on California with Kelly and Brianna. Chris was in Orlando with Stephanie, as well as Lance.

Lance was on his apartment, Diane had called him.

“Where are you?” Lance asked

“In a hotel…” she said, “Why you sound so serious…?”

“I don’t understand why you want to talk to me… the only thing you’ll get from me is to tell you that I’m in love with someone else…”

“Tell me that face to face…” Diane said, “I’m at Houston's hotel… I’ll be waiting for you…”

         Lance arrived to the hotel and asked for Diane McFly, and then he went to her room. She kissed him on his cheek to say hello.

“Hi” Lance said

“Hi…”

“How are you…?”

“Now... much better…”

         She grabbed his arm and stood behind him, and then Diane took off his jacket.

“Make yourself comfortable…” she said.

“Yeah… right…” Lance stared at her, “you know what… I think I’ll better…” she interrupted him with a kiss

“Come with me…”

         She held his hand ant took him to the bedroom.

“I didn’t come here to this… I’ll better go…” Lance excused

“No… you won’t go… you’re not gonna run away this time, Bass…”

         Diane had him against the wall, and then she kissed him. Lance knew that was really wrong, but… he needed a little passion… and Diane was giving him that… He just followed his desires… and after a couple of minutes they were on the bed…

A couple of hours later…

“I think… I should leave…” Lance said

“Why…? If this happen between us… it means that there’s still something…”

“No, you’re wrong, there’s nothing… I just… wanted to do it… I had a girlfriend, Diane… and the last thing I wanted was this…” he paused, “I wish this wouldn’t happen at all…”

“But Lance… how could you say that?”

“Listen… I’m in love... and not with you… this was a mistake… it didn’t mean anything…”

“What does she has?” Diane asked

“Well, I don’t know... but I love her… period” he said, “I didn’t want to cheated her… this was a mistake… It’s over, Diane…”

“Why do you hurt me like this…? I love you”

“No, you don’t, if you loved me you wouldn’t left me…”

“I was mad, Lance…”

“That wasn’t my problem… now... I’ll better leave…” he said, “Maybe… I’ll... see you around…”

         Lance stared at her, and then he left. Diane stood there thinking about his last words… Does that mean that wasn’t over? Was he gonna keep visiting her? But… just a few moments ago he said he didn’t want to cheat her… What does he really want…?

         A week later, Daniel, who still was in prison, had an unexpected visit… Axel was sleeping.

“Gunnar, someone came to see you” the policeman said

         Daniel was curious; no one had visited him since he was there. The officer opened the gate, took him from his shoulders and made him walked where his visit was.

“You have five minutes” the policeman said to the visit

“Ok…”

         The cop moved away so they could talk, but he was in the same room.

“Baby… what are you doing here?” Daniel said

“Don’t call me like that… I didn’t come here to take you off, I can’t do that… JC had to give the authorization…”

“Why did you came?”

“I need to talk to you…”

“About what?” Daniel asked

“I wanna know exactly what I had with you… and… how everything was between us… and maybe a little about me...”

         Daniel stared at her.

“Well, you weren’t my girlfriend… but... we were more than friends… we had a relationship, a loving relationship…” he paused, “You were liberal… and you liked everything was the way you wanted… we had great times together, I’m not lying about that… You loved they way I made love to you…” he stared at her for a moment, “When you had that accident, we were fight… and I wasn’t in the city, I had some things to do in another place… and you were mad because I was leaving for a week and you will stay here lone…” he took her hand, “You loved me, Marion… I swear… I can’t lie to you about that… I need you so bad…” he said, “…and all this is your boyfriend’s fault… he put me in prison... we’ve been through a lot in here…” he paused and looked at the table, “I’ve suffered a lot Marion, a lot, you can’t even imagine… that guy had changed you so much…” then he stopped talking.

         Marion had listened him with all her attention, and without interrupted him. She didn’t know why, but for some reason, she felt she had to take him off his place.

“Look… I’ll talk with JC… I’ll see if there’s something I could do to take you out of here... both of you… but you have to promise me, that you have to promise me that you will not try anything crazy again…”

“I can’t promise you that… I want you with me again…”

“Then you’ll have to wait until February…” she said standing up.

“Wait… fine… I promise, I promise…”

“Miss, your time is up” the cop said.

“Yes… don’t worry… I’m leaving…” she said staring at Daniel

         Marion left the place and came back to the apartment. JC was with his cell phone on his hand, and he seemed extremely worried…

“Where the hell were you, Marion?”

“I was just… walking…”

         He grabbed her arm and pulled her closer to him.

“Where were you?!” JC asked

“You’re hurting me… let me go!”

“Where the fucking hell were you?!?!” he yelled in her face

         Marion freaked out with JC’s reaction and she slapped him in his left cheek.  

“Don’t ever yell to me like that!!” she passed next to him

“You’re not going anywhere!!” JC said grabbing her arm again

“Joshua, let me go!!” she said seriously.

“No!! You’ll tell where you were, even I have to force you!!” he threatened her

“Leave me alone… You know what…? I’ll leave right now… and don’t go find me!!”

“You’re not leaving!!”

         He pulled her from her arm until they were on the bedroom, then he throw her to the bed… he placed his body on top of her and imprisoned her against the bed.

“Tell me where you go!!” JC insisted

“Let me go!!”

         Marion was moving from one side to another trying to release from him, but she couldn’t, he was stronger than her.

“Tell me!!! Where the fucking hell were you?!?!” he yelled, “Don’t you see I was so fuckin’ worried about you!!!!”

“Joshua… let me go” Marion started crying, “I just… went to see Daniel…”
