| Chapter 5 |
| 2 MONTHS LATER - MAY 2ND Josh walked into the greenroom of TRL and collapsed on the sofa; he was 4 months pregnant and had a big bump. "God my back is killing me." Josh moaned and the other guys looked at him in sympathy; Lance got up and moved behind and gently massaged his back. "Mmmm thank you baby." Josh smiled at Lance. Lance smiled back and asked, "How are you feeling?" Josh closed his eyes, "Alright. The morning sickness has stopped, I only occasionally throw up now. The funny thing is I keep getting horny I see some guy who's hot and I start getting turned on; I don't know how girls do this." The other guys raised their eyebrows at Lance in shock. Lance nodded and the guys could see the sadness and slight jealousy in his eyes; Lance was sad because when he and Josh made love he didn't know whether he turned Josh on or some random guy. Joey smirked and said, "So you've got a case of extreme randyness." Josh giggled, "Extreme randyness. That's funny." "Just don't get turned on by Carson." Justin joked. Josh scrunched up his nose before he laughed, "Oh yeah like he would ever turn me on." All the guys laughed and Lance held Josh possessively as Carson walked in. "Hey guys we'll be starting in 5, then after the break that's when you guys come in." Carson said and the guys nodded, "Hey JC, wow you look great. How you feeling?" Josh forced a smile and replied, "I'm fine." Carson smiled, "I'm glad to hear it," He almost laughed when he saw Lance glaring at him, "See you guys later, bye JC." Carson winked at him as he left. Lance continued to glare at him as he left; he almost jumped up and thumped him when he flirted with Josh. "Do you see that, he was flirting with you and with Lance right next to you; bastard." Justin said. "Did you hear him 'wow you look great' and 'how are you feeling?', God when is he gonna realize Josh is off limits." Joey said. "Did you see him wink at him?" Chris asked. "Yes." Lance said trying to control his anger. Josh heard it and turned Lance's face to him and kissed him and said, "Lance so what if he flirts with me, I'm yours and only yours." Josh smiled as he saw the light come back to Lance's eyes and love shined brightly from his eyes and Josh started feeling a tingle in his groin, "Damn! Why do you have to be so beautiful?" "What?" Lance asked confused. Josh brushed is lips against Lance's and whispered seductively, "Your turning me on lover." Lance smiled and nibbled on Josh's earlobe, "Really?" "Mmmhmm you cause tingles up my spine and other places." Lance took Josh's lips in a passionate kiss until the guys coughed and Chris said, "We're still here." Lance giggled against Josh's lips and said, "I know." Josh kissed Lance's neck causing him to moan and said, "We're going to the bathroom." The guys snickered as they went to the door and Justin said, "Don't be too long." They just laughed as Josh flipped them off. As Lance and Josh entered the bathroom Josh sat on the counter and started passionately kissing Lance running his fingers along his chest. Lance moaned and slid his hands from Josh's waist into his hair and kissed him lovingly. As they pulled away Josh brushed his nose against Lance's whispering, "I love you." Lance giggled and whispered back, "I love you." Josh kissed him once more before getting down and looking at himself in the mirror he moaned, "God I'm fat!" Lance wrapped his arms around Josh's waist from behind and said, "No your not! Your beautiful." Josh's lips trembled, "I'm huge!" Lance turned Josh in his arms and kissed him, "You're pregnant and the most beautiful boy in the world to me." Josh smiled shyly and asked, "Really?" Lance kissed him slowly cupping his face before pulling away and saying, "There is no-one more beautiful than you my love." Lance sighed, "We better go." Josh smiled at Lance and slipped his hand in his, "Ok." Josh and Lance walked back into the greenroom and watched as the break came. "I guess we're next." Joey said. "Yeah, I love it that now we can walk out there holding hands; it's great." Josh said smiling as Lance kissed his nose. "Definetely." Lance agreed. Carson came back and introduced *Nsync and the guys walked out Josh and Lance holding hands smiling at their fans; there hadn't been that much backlash only a few organisations spoke out and a few people protested against them but it has mostly dried up. Carson welcomed them, "So guys how's the tour?" "It's great it's a much more laid back tour but it's great." Justin said. "And our fans our all around us this time it's much more intimate." Joey said smiling. "So Lance what's it like to know your gonna be a daddy?" Lance smiled at Josh and answered, "It's amazing, to know you created a life out of love it's just an unexplainable feeling." "That's great, here's Shakira with 'Underneath Your Clothes' at no. 7." Carson said as the video played and then it went to the break. After the break Carson asked Josh, "So JC what's it like being pregnant?" "It's strange and amazing at te same time, I'm experiencing something that hardly any males get to experience and I'm gaining new respect for my mom." "Do you know what it is?" Josh and Lance smiled at each other and Lance answered, "We wanna wait and be surprised I mean it's my child I'll love it no matter what it is." All the audience 'aawed'. "Have you thought of any names?" "No but we've still got 5 months to decide so who knows." Lance smiled. Suddenly Josh grabbed his stomach and moaned, "Ow!" Lance looked at Josh alarmed, "Josh what is it?" "The baby, I think I'm having contractions." The guys all gathered round him and Chris said, "We've got to get you to a hospital." Lance pulled out his cell and phoned for a ambulance as they walked Josh out. 10 minutes later they came and checked Josh out and when they were done they smiled and said, "Everything's fine." "But he was having contractions." Lance asked holding Josh's hand tightly. "Yes he was but their called Braxton-Hicks contractions they happen to most woman between this time and before the birth; I'm sure it's the same with male births, it's really common and nothing to worry about. Everything looks normal just rest for a few days and drink a lot of water and healthy foods for a healthy baby." "What are Braxton-Hicks?" Justin asked. "Their mild discomfort similar to contractions." "Mild discomfort? You should try them you wouldn't say that then." Josh grumbled. The paramedics left and Joey went back on to say it was a false alarm and that everything was fine. The guys went back to the hotel and ordered Josh to bedrest for the next couple of days and Lance snuggled with him watching 'City Of Angels'. "You really scared me today Josh." Lance admitted, Lance knew that if the baby was under 24 weeks it wouldn't survive. "I know, I scared me too." Josh said, "Baby I think it's time we stop the tour soon." "Why?" "Lance I can't do this much longer and I won't be able to stay healthy if we're on the road and you know I can't travel when I'm in my third trimester. I'm sorry but I want to keep this baby healthy." "I understand, me too." Lance sighed, "When do you want to end it?" "I think a month is all I'll be able to do." "OK." Lance kissed Josh lovingly before snuggling closer to watch the rest of the movie. They fell asleep shortly after wrapped in eachothers arms; happy and content. |
