Today was a day away from the training the work outs and the weird, or so I thought.
(Shane)
I decided to hang out with Nick. I needed to be around someone and for some reason I didn't want it to be anybody but him. I know I wasn't the only one feeling that way cause Rajin was making a surprise trip to see Justine.
As I walked up to his porch I knocked a couple of times. He said he would be ready but there was no answer. So trying the knob I saw that the door was open. I went inside in search of my buddy for today.
All throughout the downstairs there was no sign of him and he swore to me he would be up.
"That lil fucker!" I thought to myself as I walked up the stairs looking at the pictures of him and his family on the walls. I wandered into what I suspected could only be his room but his bed was empty and made. I spotted a few more pictures of him on the dresser and took a closer look. He had his arm around a familiar looking guy and Howie was there to. Before I could focus on the rest of the picture a light in the reflection of the glass caught my eye. It was the light of Nicks bathroom and he was stepping out of a cloud of steam.
This boy was working out and I must say it was showing well. I decided to try and step out unnoticed and call out from the stairs. "Nick, are you up buddy?" "Shane?" Nick answered as he quickly ducked back into the bathroom.
I walked back into the bed room slowly and he was out of site. "Sorry I took a bit longer in the shower than I expected." "Oh it's ok bro." I grinned as my mind wandered to what he could have been doing. He came out in boxers and a tee-shirt and finished getting dressed.
We decided to try for a simple time around the beach.
"So how have you been?" He asked walking to his truck. "Oh the same ole same."
(Rajin)
I was so happy to get away and see Justine its been so long to me, what like 2-3 weeks to me it was enough. I miss his touch, his laugh, everything.
I landed at the airport where Jc had to pick me up because Justin was busy. "Oh my gosh J, how are you man I missed you guys soooo much."
"Oh man how is everybody, is Shane ok? We missed you to, J has been nothing but a handful." "Oh man I miss him so much." "Well lets not keep him waiting"
We drove to Justin's place where he was finishing up a meeting.
"Hmmm should I keep him waiting." "Noo way He already knows my car is here if I show up without you I jus may not make it out alive."
"Don't you even try and play Mr.," Justin yelled from the hall hanging up his headset.
"Hmm I don't even think u missed me." I had to play with him somehow.
Before I could even think about stepping further towards the exit Justin was behind me pulling me backwards into a dip/kiss. It was a deep one too.
"I really missed you." He said as he stared deep into my eyes and I had nothing else to say. That bastard left me breathless. "Well hello Mr. Timberlake." there he goes with that devious grin. I was lucky that Jc was there and let out a cough to remind us of his presence.
"Thanks Jc I had to finish that meeting." Justine smiled as he came back up and helped me as well. "No problem Jus." "So what are your plans for today? well besides the obvious." "I wanted to see everybody again." "Well Joey and Chris are away visiting family. SO right now it just Lance, Jc and I."
"Oh well that's ok I guess, so where is Lance?" "I believe that he and Renee where going to lunch and then after that they would be free."
Jc's' cell phone rang and he excused himself to take the call. Justine still had me in a hug from behind.
"Damn baby, look at you getting all big and fit." "No way you think?" I guess he had been right I had but on a few pounds of muscle and was a bit more cut. But he also wasn't slacking either. I turned around to get a proper kiss from `my man'. I snaked my hand under his shirt and felt his tummy where he had a light dusting of hair. I let my hand linger there a bit before I continued up to his pec.
"Urgh gawd how I missed you." He groaned into my neck. "You have no idea babe, you have no idea."
(Shane)
I was happy, it wasn't a euphoric high. But I was glad that I was with Nick. But what should I do with this feeling. But I guess the best thing would be not to sweat it huh?
The sun was out. I was with a good friend, right now that seemed like that's all I needed in my world.
"So what has had you so busy Shane?" "Nothing much just keeping up on work and my projects." "I know that last one was flipping amazing." "Why thank you."
We chatted about random things as we drove to the Orbital. It was a rotating restaurant slash garden that had a terrific view . We went in and was seated fairly quickly and placed our orders. We both had simple chicken salads.
After wards we took a walk in the Garden which if he were my boyfriend would have been very, very romantic. We sat in one of the fields designated for customers and laid on our backs just looking at the clouds passing buy. Pointing out ones that looked funny and jus making jokes.
"I'm really glad we hung out today Nick." I smiled after catching my breath from one of his jokes. "Me to Shane, we just have to make sure not too space it out so far next time." "Well will have more time I promise." He looked like he wanted to say something else after I said that, but he didn't.
We went to the movies afterwards and saw `Rumor has it' it was a very good movie to me and I was laughing the whole time. But nothing could beat when the sad part came on and I instinctively reached for Nicks hand and he didn't pull away. He held it for the rest of the movie and it just felt right. Hell I didn't even notice until had gotten up to go to the bathroom. I was glad there wasn't much of the movie left cause to try that again on purpose I might have blown a blood vessels.
He came back after a bit and we watched the movie like nothing new had happened. Making little comments about it as it ended. On the way home we went through the late drive through at Wendy's. As we were waiting in the drive through I guess I got a bit flirty. "I work out all day but how do you , keep up eating like me and look so good." I smiled as I poked him in his abs. He just grinned a bit and turned to pay the lady for the food.
The drive home was nothing but a pleasant blur of chatter that at some sad point had to come to an end or did it?
