"Just one more dance
When can we touch?
I wanna believe so much
That you're needin' me"

Shane was watching Kian with Bryan chatting to two girls on the opposite end of the club. Actually, they were more than chatting; at least Kian was flirting openly. It made Shane feel sick watching Kian night after night… a different girl every time. He knew that within an hour Kian would probably have one of the girls in his bed too.

Shane wished Kian would at least settle down… he knew Kian wasn’t happy, constantly searching for comfort. Shane sipped his drink and swore to himself. He could give Kian comfort, and so much more… but Kian didn’t know. Or, he didn’t want to know; Shane had dropped more than subtle hints. He watched Kian lead his catch to the dance floor, then he put down his half finished drink and decided to leave, telling Nicky on his way out.

"We're near the time
Our bodies combine
This touch it feels so kind
Could this really be?"

Shane woke up with a start. Once again he’d had that dream… where Kian shared his bed… his passion… the whole night. He shook his head; he must be going insane! He looked at the clock, 3am; still a few hours to sleep. He lay down to sleep, but just as he drifted away there was a knock on his door.

"Kian?" Shane had expected Kian to be in bed with a girl by now.

"I- I forgot m, my k- k- key…" Kian said, his teeth clattering as he was drenched. He must have got a taste of how hard it can be to get a taxi a Saturday night in central New York. "C- can I st- stay with y- you?.

"Sure," Shane held the door open to let Kian in.

"T- thank you…"

"No problem." But Shane knew it would be a problem. How would he be able to take having Kian sleeping in the same room? He shook off the thought and made the couch comfortable for Kian while he dried himself off.

"Under the sheets
So close to me
Let's take it one more step
You're all I need"

Shane woke up as something, or someone, pushed him into the wall. "Kian, what the hell…?"

"I’m cold Shane…" Kian was shivering and pressed his cold body against Shane’s warm one without invitation.

"Kian…" Shane sighed as he turned around.

"Please?" Shane met Kian’s pleading gaze and put an arm around him. What was he getting himself into? Wasn’t sharing a room bad enough, and now a bed?

Kian drifted off to sleep but Shane couldn’t. Kian was so close; he could feel his hair tickling his nose. He could smell him, touch him… he could even taste him if he wanted to. He fought the temptation.

"Our lips caress
My hands are all yours
Our bodies, they feel so warm
You feel it too"

"Mmmmm…" Kian tossed around in his sleep, his hand suddenly running over Shane’s body. Shane felt the goose bumps coming as Kian rolled closer. He was obviously dreaming about something enjoyable, a big grin on his face.

Then suddenly, without warning, his lips were on Shane’s. The kiss was forceful, although Kian was still sleeping. It felt good but Shane broke away.

"Kian? Kian!"

Kian’s eyes finally opened. "What?"

"Erm… you’re dreaming something… and, erm, I can’t sleep with you tossing and turning…" Shane couldn’t exactly say that Kian had been kissing him in his sleep and he was starting to get rather turned on and soon wouldn’t be able to control himself.

"Oh, sorry, I’ll get back to the sofa. Thanx anyway, I feel warm now." He scrambled off the bed and onto the sofa, hoping there would have been no sign what he’d been dreaming about.

"I wanna feel the world shake
I wanna feel the earth break
I wanna feel your every breath
I wanna hear your every scream
I wanna fill your every dream"

Getting through the next day was a pain, the events of the previous nights haunting Shane. He could still feel Kian’s lips on his own… taste them. He wanted them there again; it had felt so right. A pity Kian hadn’t been awake and aware of it.

They had to fly over to Florida for a photo shoot in Disney world. And it was just Shane’s luck that Kian would have the seat beside him. Kian was asleep for most of the journey, and Shane couldn’t make up his mind if it was a good or a bad thing. Of course, it was a relief not to have to talk and act normal with Kian, but at the same time it was torture as Kian hung against his shoulder and looked so inviting.

"I wanna feel the world shake
I wanna feel the earth break
I wanna feel your every breath
I wanna hear your every scream
I wanna fill your every dream"

"Come on Shay, you know you want to do it!"

Shane shook his head. "I’m not going on it." The photographer wanted to get photos of the lads on the different rides, but Shane wasn’t too much into Rollercoasters and stuff like that.

"Shane, even Bry’s doing it and he’s scared of heights." Kian was trying to convince Shane to go. Shane shook his head.

Kian moved closer, "I’ll hold your hand…" he whispered and winked. "Come on you big wimp!" he said loudly and grabbed Shane’s hand dragging him onto the ride.

Shane was too shocked to protest. Did Kian know?

"I wanna drink your wine
With a taste so pure
Your body's in love with mine
Now's the time"

The day finally ended and they could go back to the hotel and relax. Lucky for Shane who felt all worn out from fighting with his feelings and a few rollercoasters too many. Damn Kian for having the ability to drag him onto them. He headed to the bar for a drink before going to his room.

"Hey…" Kian was suddenly by his side.

"Hi," Shane said, looking away.

"I was wondering if you fancy a walk along the beach?"

"I was actually just about to go to bed," Shane replied and finished his drink, turning to leave.

Kian touched his arm. "Shane, please? I‘ve already asked all the others…"

Shane looked into those pleading eyes and sighed. "Oh, ok then. I’m just going to go and get my coat, back in five."

Kian smiled, "Thank you."

"I wanna feel the world shake
I wanna feel the earth break
I wanna feel your every breath
I wanna hear your every scream
I wanna fill your every dream"

They walked along the beach in silence until Kian stopped. He looked out over the ocean. "It’s beautiful isn’t it?" Shane couldn’t do anything but nod.

It was so still, the stars and moon reflecting in the big dark blue ocean. It was calm too; there wasn’t a soul around. The perfect setting for… he shook the thought off his mind. That wasn’t possible.

"I wanna feel the world shake
I wanna feel the earth break
I wanna feel your every breath
I wanna hear your every scream
I wanna fill your every dream"

Kian shivered slightly, his coat was lighter than Shane’s was and it was a little bit chilly. He moved closer to Shane and nonchalantly put Shane’s arms around his own body. Shane looked at him in surprise.

"I’m just cold Shane…" Kian said innocently.

"Ok," Shane replied, carefully resting his head against Kian’s shoulder, his gaze fixed on the masses of water in front of him.

Kian was quiet. He sensed the fact that Shane’s heart was beating faster than normal, could feel his breath on his neck. He plucked up the courage and suddenly turned around and placed his lips on Shane’s.

Shane was shocked but as he came to his senses he responded to the kiss. Kian’s tongue was searching for permission to enter and he willingly opened up to let him explore.

"Tonight's the night
When I take your hand
Tonight I lay you down on white sand"

Kian’s lips left Shane’s and he pushed him down on the sand.

"Kian, is this wise?"

Kian fumbled with the buttons on Shane’s shirt, "There’s no one around Shane. Relax…" Shane nodded faintly as Kian’s hands started to play on his chest.

Kian kept eye contact for a while longer, then he leaned forwards, his lips brushing against Shane’s neck. A quiet moan escaped Shane’s lips as he put his hand behind Kian’s neck pushing his head down on his neck.

Kian laughed softly and let his lips and tongue dance on Shane’s neck, down his chest, over his nipples all the way down to his sensitive belly button. He dipped his tongue into it and Shane moaned again, this time louder. Kian continued teasing for a while and Shane wriggled underneath him to try and get his erection in contact with Kian. Kian got the message.

"I wanna feel the world shake
I wanna feel the earth break
I wanna feel your every breath
I wanna hear your every scream
I wanna fill your every dream"

Kian gently removed Shane’s trousers, then his boxers. He reached his hand out to touch Shane’s erection.

"God, Kian…" Shane was drifting off into some place between heaven and earth, bliss fully unaware of anything but Kian. Kian spread Shane’s legs and kneeled between them. He lowered his head and let the tip of his tongue run over Shane’s erect penis.

Shane groaned. Kian stopped teasing and took him into his mouth, using his hands to play with Shane’s balls to make it more enjoyable.

It didn’t take Shane long to come, crying out at the force of his orgasm. He slowly stopped coming and came back down from the high he’d been on. Kian lay down beside him, gave him a kiss and held him until his breath had slowed down again.

"We’d better get back to the hotel…" Kian finally said.

Shane nodded as he sat up and found his clothes. "I’m gonna need a shower to get all this sand off me.’"

"That sounds good…" Kian said as he took Shane’s hand and placed it on his crotch.

Shane took the hint and grabbed Kian’s hand, "Come on, the sooner I take care of that the better!"

"I wanna feel the world shake
I wanna feel the earth break
I wanna feel your every breath
I wanna hear your every scream
I wanna fill your every dream"
