Hello! I used to write a whole lot of *NSYNC fanfics from 2011-2013ish?? According to my last update, it was 2016, real life and some personal issues got in the way which made me stop writing for a while, decided to resurface and remove some of the dust I have on here... :)

THIS! :D

You know,” she says with a pointed look. “Yes, he has been blessed with many abilities but you both have your strengths. He cannot match you in any way in producing, songwriting and actual vocal ability, which I think as primarily a musical artist you should be proud of. You can sing circles around that guy and that’s saying something.”

I SO AGREE! :D Amazing! but OMG when he sang on Lance and Michael's wedding..I rewatched that so many times! His voice is SO magical..and does things to me, let alone, the rest of his true fans. :)

Now..the "Pass Me By" song, I DID heard it, it sounds so beautiful.. *happy sigh*

Great chapter, love how their relationship is going so far! :D

Nice job and thanks for the update!

This was HOT! I love it! 50 Shades of Chasez...YES PLEASE! ;)

Earlier in this chapter, these lines here: It had been romantic, thoughtful and slightly cheesy. In other words, exactly like JC. Yep.. :)

Now, I love that JC told Ari to relax after a long week, that marble tub sounds wonderful right now, I had a busy work day today, and its only Tuesday.. 

Oh and these lines here made me giggle: " So, what are you wearing?” she asks and he can tell that her tone is still a little hesitant.

“A bed sheet,” he answers simply, a smirk growing on his lips when she doesn’t say anything right away.

LOL ;)

But above all, this was a good chapter, I'll read/review more soon...thanks for the update. 



Author's Response: JC in a bed sheet and nothing else is the stuff dreams are made of...wet dreams at least ;). Happy you're able to catch up on the story,  more coming soon!

Don't wait JC..DON'T WAIT! Tell her...you know you want to.. :) These lines here:

“I was over at Lance’s. They recorded us discussing me singing at the wedding.”

“Just now? Dressed like that?” She raises an eyebrow, pointedly looking over his outfit of black track pants, black shirt, black jacket and black hat. He hadn’t even shaved.

“What’s wrong with this?” he says, half offended as he looks down at himself.

“First of all I hate those friggen hats,” she says and reaches over to take it off his head with a laugh. “They do nothing for that beautiful face of yours. Second, what’s with all of the black? Are you in mourning that you’re the only bachelor left of the five or something?”

When Lance and Michael's wedding aired on TV and JC came in to Lance's house looking like that..I AGREE! LOL But at least he wasn't wearing that ridiculous fedora..HA! :D

Now, I love the necklace that JC bought Ari, she deserves something nice... :)

And I also love how the wedding was going, would've loved to see that clip of the guys dancing to "Bye Bye Bye" though.. :D

Nicely done.. *reads next chapter* 



Author's Response: Wouldn't that have been awesome?! I was holding out to the very end of the wedding special hoping they'd show a little of the reception/dancing and that we'd get a glimpse of that...Ah well. They were probably all kinda tipsy...LOL.

*cries* Poor JC!  :( He's going through a desperate time that his father Roy had a heart attack, I hope everything would be alright..

On a lighter note, the SNL 40 thing was just ehh.. -_- I knew the guys were appearing there and not performing but still, they've could've shown *NSYNC Supersize or something..but oh well..

*reads next chapter* 

 

 



Author's Response: Yeah, I wish we would have seen something but my expectations weren't raised as we knew from the start there were no plans on having anything. Plus it would have turned into the JT show anyway (probably, since SNL is his thing). Ah well!

Date: Mar 07, 2015 Title: Chapter 27: Regrets and Refunds

I wouldn't want to use JC's credit card either, come to think of it, I have written a story a couple of years ago and posted it on here, regarding JC's lost credit card and a girl found it, and returned it back to him, its called "Re-Route" Check it out when you get the chance.. :)

But anyway, I'm glad that JC took Joey's advice, but he needs to cool off his jets right now and know that Ari is an independent girl, that she likes to get things on her own, I'm sure girls would take this advantage and would take all the gifts from JC like a peace offering..lolz in a relationship, we either have to share or buy things separately..communication is key.

This was a very good chapter, I enjoyed this one, thanks for the updates.. :) 



Author's Response:

Glad you enjoyed the last three!

I have read your Re-Route story before, long time ago because it sounds very familiar. Think I will check it out again to refresh my memory. Thanks again for being an awesome reviewer!

HAHAHAHAHAH! Go get Tyler JC! LOL

Aww love the convo that Ari and Tyler had though, that was nice of them, and so glad that Ari told JC how she felt, she LOVES him now! 

I admit though, I needed a refresher on this story, I kinda forgot for a second...would read more soon when I get the chance... :) 



Author's Response: I liked that little interaction between the two of them as well. I look forward to hearing your thoughts on the next chapters now that the story is over!

*tears *grabs Kleenex tissues*

THIS:

Anna sat down next to him and rested her head on his shoulder.

"Why?" JC asked softly.

Her heart broke. "Because I love you too much."

This was sad, but I hope it was for the best that Anna had to leave him..I would hate to see that look, that heart breaking look on his face.. UGH! I can't..

If you love someone you have to let them go right?? But with JC, how is that possible?? Maybe distance makes the heart grow fonder?? Hmm..

This was a good read though.. :)



Author's Response: When I initially started this, it was a story that was supposed to explore the "after" she walks away. But I guess we'll never know. Thank you so much for reading/reviewing!

Past Featured Story

After his last girlfriend takes advantage of him, Chris loses all hope of ever finding someone who will love him the way he is. Jamie is a nice enough girl but falls a bit short of the media's expectations. When their paths cross, Jamie longs to be with Chris more than anything (and he finds himself wanting her as well), but she's afraid she'll never be good enough for him and he's terrified of giving his heart to the wrong person again. On top of all this, Chris's latest ex isn't about to let him go that easily.

I SO laughed at this: Oh, sure,” Joey countered, “and Oscar the Grouch is the captain of the Good Ship Lollipop.”  LOL

And its okay, I went to my senior prom by myself, and just hanged out with friends, then I went college, finished that, and now work at an elementary school, and I'm only in my early 20s, I've never had an official relationship with a guy, my guy friends, saw me just that, as friends, its nice though, I don't have any problem being lonesome or anything, if one day, a guy(other than JC..though I'm very fond of Chris) I wouldn't mind, I'll welcome the relationship..I'm not that kind of girl that needs a boyfriend or anything, sometimes being single..and observing from a distance, looking at things what you like, and what you don't like, is the best thing..for now.. :)

Now, off to the next chapter..



Author's Response:

I've been fine-tuning my humor a lot these days, and not just for my stories. (I believe in a balance of humor and seriousness.) I've learned from the masters, such as Lucille Ball, Robin Williams, the Three Stooges, Scooby-Doo, the Flintstones, Looney Tunes, Disney, Harry Potter, and yes, even *NSYNC themselves.

I even have a little folder filled with funny clips on my laptop that I've dubbed "Humor Homework."

I've completely forgot about this story! LOL I had to refresh my mind a bit.

I honestly haven't seen Moulin Rouge either, just the song back in 2000..haha.

But I agree, I have a major soft spot for Chris, and he would do something like this to someone, especially for that girl Jamie, she reminds me of myself, even the hazel eyes give it away... :) Except that I'm way taller than her..lolz

I'll read more soon... :) 



Author's Response:

I don't blame you. This thing's been left alone for almost a year. Now I'm getting my spark back, which I'll take as a good omen. I'm forever starting stories, but you know I've got a good story (and how I feel about it) when I'm able to keep it going.

I saw a few MR clips on YouTube, and I thought, "Dang, don't watch this thing if you're already feeling blue." That's how I feel about Edward Scissorhands, too. Good story, impressive effects, dazzling music, but SHEESH!

I'd say I'm about the same height as Chris: 5 foot 6. Jamie's, what, 5 foot 2 or 3.

HAHAHAHAHA! :D

“More like three stomachs,” said Chris. “Or even four, like a cow.”

“Mmrrrroooooooo.” Joey held his forefingers over either side of his head and mimed chewing a cud, which sent all four guys into a laughing fit.

I also love that *NSYNC are at the movies, these lines here..SO TRUE! LOL  

As if the words were a cue, a deafening scream rang out and some pubescent voice wailed, “Oh, my gosh! It’s ‘N Sync!”

That was all it took to light the fuse.

Now a whole slew of people, with females making up at least eighty percent, were shouting and hollering and stirring up a positively hysterical scene.

“‘N Sync!” 

“It’s ‘N Sync!”

“‘N Sync, here?”

“I don’t believe it!” 

“You’re kidding!”

“Shut up!” 

“Justin!”

“Chris!”

“Justin!” 

“JC!”

“Justin!” 

“Chris!”

“Lance!”

“JUSTIN!”

“Lance, I love you!”

“Marry me, JC!”

“Hey, Joey!”

“RUN!” Joey urged his mates, none of whom needed telling twice.

LOVED IT! :D I can imagine all the guys running out of the theater..HA!

*reads next chapter*

Date: Aug 13, 2015 Title: Chapter 4: Chapter 4: Unlucky Discovery

THIS: Why can’t I be a more normal, average person? Why can’t I go out and grab a burger, see a movie, or just walk down the street like anybody else?

Some famous people enjoy all the attention, others don't, I honestly, I don't like alot of attention, I'm the kind of girl that observes everything from a distance and then make my move if the time is right... :)

But now Allie, which is Chris's girlfriend right?? Hmm..let me read to find out... *reads next chapter* :D 



Author's Response:

I'd be somewhere in the middle. I like to be noticed, but I also value my privacy as much as any person.

And yep, that's Chris's girl, Allie. The one he'd been griping about at the very beginning.

Reviewer: theusagirl Signed
Date: Aug 13, 2015 Title: Chapter 5: Chapter 5: Hindsight

Now Nat and Jamie who Chris is really is! A member of the greatest popgroup of all time...*NSYNC *insert fangirl screams* :D  

Now these lines here: “Knowing you, Nat, you could scare them off just by looking at them. No one gives the evil eye like you do.” HA! Talk about a death glare..I do that sometimes, complete with a fist..LOL

But overall, I'm a very nice and caring person.. :)

Now, about Chris and Allie, no sh*t, she probably is dating some dude right under Chris's nose...I must know! *reads next chapter*  



Author's Response:

Yeah, Jamie and Nat are both *NSYNC fans, but they're the more mature, toned-down fans. They adore the music and they certainly wouldn't say no to meeting any of the guys in person, but they also understand the guys are still people like them and therefore deserve privacy and respect. Neither of the girls would have been part of that crowd that chased the guys out of the theater.

When it comes to death glares, Nat is the master. For that matter, never underestimate the lady when she's angry. Where Jamie would try to dodge a confrontation, Nat would march directly into the fray with her head held high. 

I know the answer, but I'll let the next chapter do the talking.

Date: Aug 13, 2015 Title: Chapter 6: Chapter 6: Insecurities

I know I am! :D This story is turning out great! And yes, Britney Spears: Lucky, I have it downloaded on my mp3 player..among many others 80s, 90s, and early 00s..and that includes *NSYNC..lolz I listen to all that stuff in my car that has seen better days, but I love it..LOL

Anyways, these lines here: Chris sucked in a deep breath and let it out slowly through rounded lips. How could he describe it? In another minute he managed to say, “Sometimes I get the sense that no one sees me or appreciates me as I truly am.”  AWWW! :D Chris you are SO ADORABLE! We appreciate you LOTS for who you are a person! :D

Now Jamie, go call Chris! I know I would, well, I'm don't like calling on the phones much, but I did call Lance on Dirty Pop and Chris on the Baub show once..that was fun! Long story..lolz 

I'll read more soon! :) 



Author's Response:

Thank you so much! I feel the story itself is worth telling, but it's also the enthusiasm of my readers that keeps me going. That's why I love reviews the way I do.

I know Britney gets a lot of hate, and I'll admit she's not my most favorite person in the world, but I do enjoy her music. I can think of few songs sadder or more meaningful than "Lucky."

As much as Chris loved (and still loves) being part of *NSYNC, I'm sure he had those moments when he felt like people only saw him and cared about him as a celebrity. That's what makes their song "Celebrity" especially profound. To quote JC, "Do you want me or do you want what I can buy you?" Sure, I want enough money to live comfortably, but I want a good man, too. At the risk of ripping off the Beatles, money can't buy me love!

You'll need to tell me more about those calls to Lance and Chris. I MUST have the details!

YOU TELL THEM CHRIS! WOO!

These lines here:  

“Whoa, hey, pal,” said Landon, taking a step forward, “take a Chill Pill. It ain’t like she’s married to you or nothing. You got no more claims to her than any other dude—”

“Shut your mouth, Scruffy.”

HA! LOL

But I SO knew that Allie has been screwing around behind Chris's back all along, pssh, with Scruffy..

*reads next chapter* 



Author's Response: I still wanted to use that guy from the theater, who knocked Jamie down and only left her with an insult. So I made him the guy that Allie turned to when Chris couldn't be there, and as you can tell, he's a hard guy to get along with and he can get just as whiny as her when things don't go his way. Don't want to give too much away, but let's just say we haven't seen the last of our buddy Scruffy.
