She's finally happy, in all sense of the word. Min and JC deserve each other, both have been through their own version of relationship hell. "What's on your mind, Lance?"
"Just that Min's happy."
Justin smiles. "I know, she deserves it."
"What do you mean she deserves to be happy? How is she happy?"
"She and JC have been getting close and pretty cuddly lately."
Chris smiles. "JC's been sounding happier lately."
"Because of Min, they've been literally inseparable since a month ago when she popped the stitches on her hip," Justin informs Chris and I nod, confirming the information.
"I'm just glad he's finally seeing what's been in front of him for the past 13 years!"
"A few weeks ago, they kissed," Justin indulges.
"Was it a full on make out, sucking face kiss?"
"No, just a quick peck on the lips. They snuggled closer and smiled," I tell him.
"That's it?" Chris makes a face at the news. "Anything since then?"
"That was it and I don't think so."
"How has she been healing? Who's been taking her?"
"She's healing beautifully and JC has been bringing her to the appointments," I admit.
"Why not you?"
"She wants JC to take her, something about him easing her nerves."
"Dude, it's like her saying she's a virgin."
"What?"
"She has slept with him and she's not embarrassed by him being there. She probably has him help her shower. They want to date, but something's holding it up," Chris points out.
"So what if they have had sex?" I reason. "They're adults!"
Justin and Chris snap their heads in my direction outside the hotdog stand we're eating at. "When did this happen?"
"How long have you known?"
"Why didn't you tell us?"
"Who told you?"
"JC's been my best friend for twenty years, he never told me!"
"It happened about 2 1/2 months ago. I've known for about a month. She asked me to keep my trap shut. Min told me. JC hasn't confirmed or denied it," I rattle off. They both look at each other and smile after a few seconds. "I never said anything, you don't know and we never talked about it. I want no part on what you two are about to do."
"That's fine," Chris says coolly, smiling like the evil clown he can be.
Justin's cell beeps, causing him to laugh. "Minny just texted me. She pretty much just told me what Lance has told us, just in pure Irish!"
We look at his phone and I translate, confirming it. "Damn, she did."
"What does that read in English?" Chris asks because he's heard the two of us and Min talk in it, write letters/notes in it and he never took the time to learn it.
"It basically says it's been eating at her and three weeks before the incident, she slept with JC at Avalon almost three months ago. She regrets not telling him sooner."
"I'm going to see if we can stop by JC's and see her."
"Justin, I don-"
"Álainn, Is féidir leis an triúr againn ag swing?Fadhb ar bith, ach Chris, Lance agus I. Tá. Níl, níl mise as mo mheabhair. Is mian liom ach dúirt tú go raibh rud éigin níos luaithe. Tá tú fós ag mo chara is fearr, beidh sé i gcónaí. "
"I didn't think she wanted to see us after admitting to something like sleeping with C," Chris says to me and I nod in complete agreement before turning our attention to Justin's phone call.
"Beidh orainn a fheiceann tú i cúpla uair an chloig. Promise. Sea, féach leat níos déanaí," he says with a little laughter and alot of affection in his voice.
"All I understood was 'promise' and our names," Chris whispers to me as Justin hangs up with Min.
I chuckle at the admission. "He asked if we could stop by to see her and some things about the whole sleeping with JC situation, telling her he wasn't mad."
"How come you two don't talk in tongues when it's not with her?"
"I don't because I normally don't have to and it's easier to have a private conversation in front of people who don't understand it with her," I admit.
"I talk Irish with her because that's what she speaks in when talking about her emotions," Justin confesses.
"Oh, I guess it makes sense. So when do we see her?"
"Around three. She has Joey coming too."
"It's basically an *NSYNC reunion, just to talk to us."
~~~~~
"Ready, guys?"
They shrug and we head up to JC's door. I knock and she answers the door, making sure to warmly greet us. "James! Justin! Chris!" she says, hugging us as she greets each of us. "Thanks for coming."
We greet Joey and we watch JC stand behind her, hands on her hips with his right hand splayed over her hip around the stitches. "What's up, Leilei?" Joey asks.
"I've told two of you why I asked or said you could stop in. I know it's been almost three months since the night it happened," she began.
"Is it the Nick thing?"
"Not at all. It's actually three weeks before that."
Joey crosses his arms and raises an eyebrow. "I'm listening."
"Well, three weeks before the incident, Josh and I had a one night stand. I told him that if Nick nixed it again, I might give him a chance. I'm not ready for that, but we were at Avalon and I talked to him. He pulled me into a private VIP room, ordered JD and had a couple shots," she confesses, eyes shut tightly so as not to look at Chris and Joey. "He kissed me and kisses led to touching and touching led to the inevitable sex. Nick had called just minutes after we had finished," she finished, her body leaning back on JC's.
"At least you told us first," Chris responds calmly.
"What do you mean 'inevitable sex'?" Joey inquires.
"Joe, she's always been attracted to me and since she turned fifteen, she's wanted to know. She told me."
Justin and I quickly glance at each other, knowing it's been longer than that. It might be the first time he recalls it and she probably just agreed with it. "Hahahahahaha! Wanted to know what since then?" Chris laughs.
"Well, I wanted to know what he felt like for 12 years," Min tells us.
"What?" Joey is being Joey, not wanting to know. "There's almost ten years between you!"
She shrugs, blinking and rolling her eyes. "I could've slept with him when I was 17, on his birthday!"
All five of us look at her. "WHAT?"
"Let's just say I wanted him to be my first and we almost was if it wasn't for James coming to the back of the bus."
"Oh, THAT time," JC says, smirking.
"That's why that video was cut and taped," Joey says.
"She was 17 and he was 25!" Justin freaks out.
~~~~~
"Now that that's done with, can we please unwind before heading to bed?" she asks us a few hours later. She cooked dinner and fed us, explaining the whole relationship with Nick and her sex life. It's now ten at night and she had an appointment in the morning.
"Yes, Min," I say, having already known most of it.
"Thanks, James," she says hugging me.
"You're welcome." Trust me when I say that if I were straight, I would get a boner looking at my childhood best friend.
Come on, she's about five five, a size 7 (her hips are the kind that make the best curves and the reason for her size), 38 D tits, she dyed her brown hair raspberry truffle, blue eyes that change color according to her mood and what she's got on, Cupid's bow lips, and freckles everywhere (from one cheek bone to the other like a path under one eye, over her nose and under the other is the heaviest with the rest dotting her body sparsely). I have caught Justin and JC looking at her. Justin kissed her when she turned 18, he was 21.
When I was 23, let's just say lines were crossed and she was trashed. She doesn't remember and you don't tell a very drunk Irish, Scottish, British and French woman no. She would have had her way and I've wondered since she was 16, so I let her take her wanted birthday present. Yes, I made sure to use protection and I did think about her in that way sometimes. So when it did happen, she and Nick were in an 'off phase' of their relationship. It was unforgettable for me because I was stone cold sober, not a drop of alcohol or a taste of any drug in my system, and DAMN! She knows what she's doing, there are only improvements that could've happened in the past 8 years. She was one of my last trysts with a woman. I retract that, she WAS the last. I drop Justin and Chris off at their houses, bidding them goodbye, before heading home to dream of that night~May 5, 2002.
