"Er, yeah, I asked him if I could borrow it." JC said quickly trying to figure out something to say.
"Yeah, okay, that makes sense, but, aren't those his boxers?" Nina said pointing at Lance's boxers that were sitting at the edge of the couch.
"No, they're Joey's." JC said.
"Why is Joey's underwear at your house?" Nina said, still confused.
"Nina, do you always give survey's when you go to someone's house?" JC asked hoping that would get her to shut up and leave.
"Alright, I can take a hint when I see one, I'll see you Friday Josh." Nina said turning to leave.
"Bye Nina." JC said closing the door behind her.
"That was close." Lance said appearing from JC's room.
"Yeah, your girlfriend is nosey as hell." JC said walking towards the couch.
"Duh!" Lance said walking towards JC.
"Lookie at what I got." JC waved the tape in his hand.
"Joey?" Lance's eyebrows rose.
"Yeah Joey." A smile crept up onto JC's lips.
"Oh, let's watch!"

**Friday**

I watched Tiffany as she added the last details to her make-up. Because she was a celebrity, she had to look great all the time. Quite honestly, I always thought she looked best when she was lying in bed next to me, and the dark yellow glow of the morning sun shined off her skin. She looked like an angel. Don't get me wrong, she looked amazing. She was wearing a black dress suit. She looked very mature and beautiful. Alexis ran into the room right into my arms.

"Daddy, what time is Auntie Rain coming over?" Alexis asked me in my ear as if she was trying to hide her question from Tiffany.
"I have a surprise for you pumpkin head." I said pushing her nose in. I loved pushing in her nose because her big blue eyes grew and she would fling her beautiful brown locks around.
"What daddy, what?!" She asked excitedly.
"Uncle Chris is coming to watch you." I said.
"YAY!!! UNCIE CHRIS UNCIE CHRIS!!" Alexis said jumping off of my lap and dancing around the room.
"Alexis, you better be good for Uncle Chris." Tiffany said making her voice commanding and mother like.
"I will momma, I will." She smiled and walked out of the room singing Uncle Chris.
"Sounds like she has your talent." I said walking towards Tiffany who was just about done with her make-up.
"Well Mr. Timberlake," She turned towards me, "It is time to go."
"Alright, let me call Chris."

Rain's big blue eyes moved from picture to picture of her and her best friend. She missed her and Joeys friendship. Before he came the hoe he is today, he was the sweetest person in the world. He would show up and bring her flowers when her boyfriends would dump her. He would come to her window late at night and sing to her whenever she was sad or upset. She missed the sweet Joe she had grown up with. Her thoughts were interrupted by the knock at the door. Rain pulled her tired body off of the couch and ran to the door. She opened in to a man dressed in a suit with a box resting in his arms.

"Rain Gomez?" The man asked.
"That's me." Rain said looking past the man to see a limo waiting behind him.
"Get dressed and come out to the limo, you have a half and hour." He said then turned back to the car without further conversation.
"What the hell?" Rain questioned as she shut the door behind her.

There was a note on the box. Before reading it she opened the box. Inside was a long black dress that fell to the floor. Her eyes grew and a smile spread across her face. She grabbed the note that was lying on top of the box and opened it:

Rain-

I miss you and I. Come with me tonight, be my date.

I love you
Joe-Joe

PS- Do something with your hair!

Tears formed at the corners of her eyes. It had been SO long since Joey had done something sweet for her, and this truly made up for it.

"Lance, I really don't want to talk to you about this right now!" Nina heard her voice grow with anger.
"Nina, you're the one who brought it up!" Lance yelled.
"Lance, I'm just upset, you haven't been home for the past 4 days, I'm starting to think you're cheating on me." Nina looked down at her first outfit.
"Nina, I'm not cheating on you," Lance said pulling her face up to meet his sincere eyes, "I just have some issues I need to work out, and I don't want our relationship to get fucked up in the process."
"I miss you." Nina said, trying to hold back the tears that were building up in her eyes.
"I miss you too Nina, and I promise this will be over soon, but until then I think I'm going to stay with JC." Lance said looking at his hands.
"You know what Lance, fine!" Nina said spinning herself away from Lance causing her long brown hair to hit him in the face.
As soon as Nina left the room, JC made his entrance. His eyes looked at Lance. He smiled then whispered in his ear, "I love you."
"I love you too." Lance said back.
"Come on, the show is going to start soon and the guys are half naked." JC winked.

"Oh my God!" Chris shot his eyes open. He didn't realize he fell asleep. He hadn't slept in a decent bed in at least 4 years let alone lay in one. He was beyond comfortable. He woke up and realized he didn't put Alexis to bed. He jumped out of the bed and ran to Alexis's room. He threw the door open to see the four-year-old little girl lying on the floor deep in sleep. Chris smiled. He loved Alexis. Ever since Justin and Tiffany asked Chris to be the godfather, he loved Alexis like his own. He swooped up the brunette girl in his arms, and placed her on the bed gently.

"Uncie Chris." Alexis said with a tired voice.
"Yes sweetheart?" Chris said softly.
"You're my favoritest." She said softly.
Tears lined Chris's eyes, "You're my favoritest too, I love you Lexi."
"I wuv you too Daddy Chris." Alexis said closing her eyes.
