Nick and Ashley-Chapter Thirty-Five
Beautiful sunny Florida was the place, Wyndham Casa Marina Resort to be exact. Built in 1921, it was the oldest resort in Key West. It was still the most amazing place that management could possibly find. Since the Passing The Torch tour was such a huge success they decided to splurge and rent out most of the hotel all week, also seeing that as the best way to avoid conflict with the wedding. On the day of the wedding, there was a secluded part of the beach that management had bought out for the day. They didn't quite agree with what was going on but they knew that they couldn't stop it so they might as well help them keep it as clean as possible.
It was just a short walk from Duval Street, the main drag in this beautiful hot spot. The clubs and exciting atmosphere had nothing on the absolute beauty on this place. The way the sun glistened off the white sand contrasted only to the way the moon gleamed off of the water on the horizon. This truly was paradise and it just might be the perfect place for a wedding, especially to a couple that has come so far.
Nick and Ashley- a source of energy for all lovers out there. Romance never falls short of them and they seemed to just elevate off the ground with the way that they have that aura around them when they are together.
"Hey space cadet, you alright over there?" Devon asked flaring his hands in front of his boyfriend's face.
"Huh? Oh, yeah, just thinking." Dan said as he looked out the window over the amazing site that lay before him.
"Anything in particular?" Devon asked back as he plopped himself down on the bed of their hotel room laying on his back with his hands behind his head.
"Nothing really." Dan said with a smile as he turned back around and saw his gorgeous blond boyfriend just laying there.
"Do you remember the last time we were here Danny?" Devon asked.
"How could I forget?" Dan said as he laid down on top of the bed and cuddled up with his boyfriend.
Flashes in their heads of the two men spending Valentine's Day in Key West culminating a love that could rival Nick and Ashley's but oh so different. It was just as strong, just as caring and just as healthy of a relationship as theirs but there was one thing different about it. This was Dan and Devon, not Nick and Ashley.
"That was one of the best weeks of my life Danny." Devon said
"This is our place Dev, our memories come before us every time we come back here. There's no reason that we can't make every time here just as special as the first." Dan said climbing up and looking into Devon's eyes.
Crystals of blue from Devon's eye clashing with Dan's soft brown eyes provided just another contrast that made this relationship even stronger.
"We'll just have to make our own memories." Devon said with a smile as the two men connected lips and kissed passionately.
Dan, being on top, slid over a bit to Devon's neck. The pale Canadian skin of his boyfriend seemed to turn him on more and more each day. Dan ran his hand through Devon's now short, spiky blond hair as he suckled at the nape of his neck. Dan knew that Devon loved to have his neck touched and could feel him moaning and beginning to squirm into Dan's touch.
Devon began to thrust his hips into Dan's crotch, knowing that all he needed now was Dan. All he needed was his boyfriend and then the world seemed to just disappear. Nothing happened around them. It was just him and Dan.
"Those two are already going at it? Jeez." Jacob said as he laid on the bed in his and AJ's room flipping through the channels on the TV.
"That didn't take long." AJ said putting some folded clothes into the drawers.
"Those two are like rabbits." Jacob said
"Like we're any better." AJ said with a laugh.
"Yeah well we probably do it better than those two anyway." Jacob said
"I don't know Jake they're a pretty hot couple." AJ said with a smile.
Jacob put on his pouting face and stared at the TV. His view was soon directly obstructed by his boyfriend however.
"I think we're steaming compared to those two babyfaces." AJ said with a smile as he kissed Jacob.
"You better believe it." Jacob said with a laugh. "Hey, speaking of steaming." Jacob said with a hint.
Both men glanced over to the bathroom attached to their room. As if pulled by some divine power both men got up and headed for the bathroom shedding as much clothing as possible on the way over there. AJ closed the door and turned around as he felt the hot water begin to fill the room.
Jacob stood there in just a pair of blue mesh shorts. The outline on his chest spelling out a beautiful definition of muscle that he had been working on for years. AJ traced his fingers over these lines, impressed by the beauty that stood before him. As he reached the nipples he leaned in for a kiss. Jacob's lips being locked couldn't let out the yelp after AJ pinched them. That yelp was swallowed by AJ's tongue, which then turned into a moan as AJ began to massage them.
AJ reached down underneath the waistband of the mesh shorts and released them so that they fell to the floor. Jacob stepped out of them and began to get incredibly hard as AJ began to play with his cock. AJ rubbed the foreskin especially a lot since it might have been the most sensitive part of his boyfriend's body. The head of Jacob's cock eventually poked its way through to reveal a very meaty surprise just waiting to be licked.
AJ lowered his own shorts and on his way back up kissed every part of Jacob's legs that he could get his lips on paying close attention to his balls since he knew that he loved that. AJ stopped and came back up, which gave them both the cue to step in the shower. The room filled with steam as both men enjoyed each other's wonderful bodies that only belonged to them.
"Where are those two?" Trevor asked becoming impatient.
"Relax Trev. They'll get here soon." Lance said
"What could be taking them so long? We decided to go to lunch together like an hour ago." Trevor said looking at his watch.
"Did anyone ever tell you that you get real cute when you're impatient" Lance said with a smile.
"Thanks. I needed that." Trevor said with a sigh
"Look around Trev, we're in paradise, take a guess what's taking them so long. It's the same reason we were almost late." Lance said with a smile.
"Dude, that's gross." Trevor said cringing.
"Why is that gross?" Lance asked
"The thought of Erik fucking anyone is just gross." Trevor said as he began to laugh.
"Trevor, you spend almost every single day of your life with these guys. Tell me that you couldn't draw each of them naked in your sleep by now." Lance said
"Yeah well, I still have the best package." Trevor said with a laugh.
"It's all I need." Lance said looking into Trevor's dark eyes, rubbing the top of his hand to show him affection in public.
"What's so funny, you two?" Erik said as he and Mandy walked over.
Both men busted out into laughter, practically rolling on the floor.
"Nevermind. I don't wanna know." Erik said as he and Mandy headed for the door with Trevor and Lance in tow.
"Can I hold him Bri?" Nick asked
"Sure buddy." Brian said to Nick then looked at his son who was playing with his dad's nose. "Here's your Uncle Nick, Cody. You'll like his nose better." Brian said as he handed his 3-week old son to his best friend.
"Very funny." Nick said sarcastically as he held the baby in his arms. "Hey Cody, don't listen to Daddy, he's a silly guy." Nick said in a babyish tone as he began to walk around the beach with him. It was nighttime and had been a long day of playing on the beach, eating out and some other activities that paradise includes. Nick held the baby, rocking him in his arms as Cody began to drift asleep after his long, tiresome day. Nick sat in a chair on the patio overlooking the ocean as night seemed to take over and the only light was the moon. Nick was taken back by the beautiful site and apparently Cody was too because he was fast asleep in Nick's arms. He kissed the baby on the forehead simply for being a sight of amazement to him.
"You're gonna have to give him back eventually. I don't think Brian will let you keep him" Ashley said with a smile as he came up behind him and put his arms around his shoulders.
"Everyone's a wise guy around here." Nick said with a quiet laugh as to not wake the baby.
"I still love you Nicky." Ashley said as he kissed him on the cheek.
"Look at this Ash, what a beautiful site. Like a family." Nick said with a smile that seemed to just glow.
Ashley just smiled back at him knowing that this was eventually one of their goals in life and no words needed to be expressed on how great it would be to have a family of their own.
"This will be us one day Ash, I swear I will try my hardest to make this us." Nick began "One day, one day." He kept whispering as he rubbed the baby's cheek, marveling at the sheer beauty of the site.
The week in euphoria had gone by pretty quickly. Good times were shared, including a bachelor party for both grooms thrown separately by the two bands. Nick and Ashley were lying in bed together, Nick on his stomach facing the window and Ashley laying with his head on Nick's back. A small peak of light shown through the curtains and seemed to hit Nick directly in the eye.
"Ash, I thought you closed the shades last night." Nick groaned out.
"I did." Ashley moaned back.
"WAKE UP!!!!!!" screamed AJ as he jumped on the bed.
"What the hell is this?" Nick asked as he tried to rub the sleep out of his eyes.
"It's your wedding day guys, that means that you two aren't allowed to see each other all day. We're here to make sure of that." Brian said as he jumped on the bed with AJ.
"Three Backstreet Boys in a bed at the same time. You guys are lucky I'm not a twelve-year-old girl." Ashley said as he pulled the sheet back over his head.
"Don't think you're getting out of this so easily." Jacob said as he walked in and began to jump on the bed. "Let's go Ash." Dan said as all 4 of them pulled at the O-town heartthrob.
Sleep to a pop star is so valuable that it seemed to make him ten times stronger than all of them and he wrapped himself as best he could in the sheets so he couldn't get pulled out.
"Hmm, he's a strong bastard." Jacob said.
"Yeah well I figured you guys would need some help so I recruited some guys to help." AJ said as he gave a whistle.
As if they were five bouncers escorting people out of a club the five members of N'Sync walked in and simply lifted Ashley directly out of the bed.
"Oh you guys suck." Ashley said as he gave up on the attack and just let himself be carried out of the room.
Justin stayed behind however as everyone else including AJ, Jacob, Brian and Dan left the room grabbing whatever clothes Ashley needed on the way out.
"Wedding day huh Carter?" Justin asked sarcastically as he sat down in one of the chairs.
"Yeah something like that." Nick said as he got up and put a shirt on still trying to figure out what just happened.
"You know you two young'ns are making me look bad." Justin said with a smile
"What are you talking about Timberlake?" Nick asked.
"Ashley's the youngest in O-town, you're the youngest in BSB. I'm the youngest in N'Sync. See the pattern?" Justin remarked
"Trust me we're shocking enough people as it is doing this. I don't think there's too much pressure on ya buddy." Nick said with a smile.
"I know I know, I just can't believe you're getting married dude. That's pretty crunk though." Justin said as he extended his hand.
"Thanks J." Nick said as he slapped hands with an old friend.
There was a slight roar going over the crowd as the conversational talk continued. Everyone anticipated a ceremony that saw the matrimony of two individuals that knew what love was. They knew what it meant and knew that it had power that was bigger than anyone knows or can imagine.
"You ready Ash?" Dan asked as he opened the door and poked his head into the waiting room.
Ashley took a quick look around and noticed that this room that really didn't have much in it seemed eerily familiar. He shook it off as déjà vu and looked back up at Dan.
"I guess so." Ashley responded.
"You're about to get married buddy. You better be ready." Dan said with a laugh as he walked out, Ashley getting up and following him out.
Something about all this seemed so weird and familiar to him. He shook it off as best he could and got up and walked out to the church. The organ struck a wedding note and Ashley looked to his left and saw Dan smiling at him.
Ashley saw that genuine smile of his best friend and remembered that it was the dream that he had before he told Nick about Matt. That's why this seemed so familiar except this time it felt much more real. Before he knew it, both men were finished walking side by side and they were at the front of the aisle. Ashley got nervous for a second and quickly turned to see who was waiting for him at the altar.
The other groom at the altar turned and he saw the face he was looking for. Those blue eyes that could never be duplicated seemed to just stare into his soul, as no one else's could. Ashley couldn't help but smile because this was their day. Times had been rough but they had fought through it and their love was better for it.
Ashley walked up next to his fiancée and took his hand, a hand that provided nothing but strength for him. The minister began the service as everyone watched on. Every couple in the audience saw something that day, even the married ones. They saw what every love should be. Nick and Ashley, standing up there hand in hand enjoying in their day and only their day was an exemplary definition of what love is supposed to be.
"Nicholas and Ashley have decided to write their own vows for each other. I will let them take over now starting with Nick." The pastor said as he took a step back.
Brian handed Nick the ring out of his pocket. He gave his friend a wink and whispered "Just speak from the heart."
"Ashley" Nick began "Please take this ring as a sign of my undying affection and love for you. Since you came into my life I have known nothing more beautiful than our love. People say that we are too young but who is to judge what our love should be. We've always understood what the other one needs and I can never imagine my life without you now. You've provided me with nothing but support, love and care and I am proud to call you my husband."
Ashley pushed a smile through tears and after a few seconds turned around as Dan handed him his ring.
"Nick" "Take this ring just as you have taken my life and every imperfection that I have. Even in my unfaithfulness you have accepted every part of me and given my heart a second chance." Ashley said as tears stung his eyes. "Your smile is like air to me and without it I wouldn't be able to breathe. There is nothing more perfect in this world then our love and I cannot wait to spend the rest of my life with you."
Nick mouthed the words "I love you" as he reached his hand out and wiped away Ashley's tears. Ashley caressed Nick's hand as he held the side of his face.
"Blessed by the beautiful words of love they share with each other, I know pronounce you married under God, go and serve in his image. You may now kiss." The minister said finishing the mass.
Nick's hand that was still on Ashley's face pulled him in and the two men engaged in a kiss of epic proportions. It was a kiss that sealed a pact of love. This kiss meant so much more than all the others. This kiss was the beginning of a new life together, a new love that feeds off two very eager hearts.
"Now, I'm proud to introduce for the first time ever Mr. and Mr. Nick and Ashley Carter!" Clive Davis said through an outdoor microphone as the two newlyweds walked through the arch that led onto the secluded section of the beach that management had sectioned off for the wedding.
"I'd like to ask everyone to sit back down as Nick and Ashley share their first song as a married couple. This is a song that they wrote together in the studio and it is one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard. What these two crazy kids don't know is that the remaining members of O- town and Backstreet Boys will join together with N'Sync to sing their song for them as a sign of their support for their friends."
O-town stepped to the front of the dance floor leaving room for Nick and Ashley to dance in the middle. As the grooms embraced Ashley's bandmates began singing.
"There were times in my life That I didn't understand What love truly meant
I didn't know the feeling Someone could provide me That only you could give
Now I understand What this feeling is And I know what it is I need."
Ashley looked deep into Nick's soulful eyes and saw his destiny. He saw everything he needed in life. N'Sync kicked in with the chorus from the other side of the floor.
"All I need is you You're the one that brings me back to life You fill my soul You give me the strength to go on You supply me with love You show that you'll always be there And now I know that All I need is you"
Backstreet stepped to the front as they began to sing the second verse to this beautiful ballad.
"I've never been here before This love is all so new It's a feeling that surrounds me
It's something that follows me It guides my way You show me the means to survive
My life is complete I am safe in your arms Because I know now that..."
N'Sync took over exactly where BSB left off and sang their part of the chorus.
"All I need is you You're the one that brings me back to life You fill my soul You give me the strength to go on You supply me with love You show that you'll always be there And now I know that All I need is you"
All three groups came together and put every one of their collective voices together as the music picked up and the song finished off strong.
"All I need is you You're the one that brings me back to life You fill my soul You give me the strength to go on You supply me with love You show that you'll always be there And now I know that All I need is you" It was a beautiful song for a beautiful couple and touched a part of every person's soul because it was written by Nick and Ashley. It truly was their song.
Everyone began to eat and dance a little more, trying to avoid as many boy-band songs and dances as possible but of course a few are going to sneak in, which was all in fun of course. Laughs were had and good times were enjoyed.
"Hey guys can I get your attention please?" Dan said as he addressed the entire crowd. "Me and Brian have to do this thing called a speech." He said as everyone drew a small laugh.
"Yeah I guess being the best men and everything we should right?" Brian said sarcastically in his thick southern accent.
"Guys, I can honestly say that I've never seen two people happier. You two are the true definition of love and if every couple had half the amount of love in their life as you two do then this world would be a better place." Dan said proudly as he gave Ashley a wink and a smile.
"I can't agree more with my illustrious co-best man here." Brian started with a smile "When they first started I honestly had my doubts but if you simply watch them for more then two seconds every doubt in your mind will be erased. The simple way that the other one's face lights up when he walks in the room is just the smallest example of how perfect they are together. All the luck in the world guys." Brian finished.
"Raise your glasses everyone." Dan said as he raised his glass of champagne and everyone followed suit.
"To Nick and Ashley" Brian said out loud.
"To Nick and Ashley" Everyone replied and drank a swig of champagne.
After everyone sat back down a clanging of forks against glass began to ring out through the beach. The universal sign for the newlyweds to kiss was no different here in Key West. Both men leaned in through a smile and kissed a passionate kiss. Both men pulled out and simply stared into each other's eyes, keeping their faces so close together that their noses were touching.
"I love you baby." Nick whispered
"Forever Nicky." Ashley responded.
Dan and Devon walked up the beach in the night, letting the cold sand set in between their bear toes as they discarded their shoes and socks when they first started walking. Bowties were also drawn down and it was time to unwind after this hectic yet gorgeous day. The couple held hands as the waves nipped at their toes barely touching them before it retreats back to the ocean.
"Beautiful wedding huh?" Devon asked
"Yeah." Dan said looking out over the ocean.
"Something wrong Danny?" Devon asked as the two stopped in the moonlight.
"Beautiful isn't it?" Dan said looking out over the ocean
"The ocean? Yeah it is." Devon replied
"I meant us." Dan said as he smiled and the two kissed.
Dan pulled out and just stared into Devon's eyes, which seemed to just glow with an aura that made this next question even easier.
Dan pulled a small black box out of his left pocket and opened it to reveal a beautiful gold band.
"Devon, will you marry me?" Dan asked
Devon looked shocked for a second.
"Oh Danny." Devon said as he looked down at the box. When he looked back up he had tears in his eyes.
"Yes" Devon replied tears stinging his eyes.
A simple hug was all that was necessary for these two lovers. It was all they needed to complete their love.
TO BE CONTINUED...
<<<< Quite a chapter huh? Pytn18@hotmail.com for comments and suggestions. "Nick and Ashley" ends here but don't fear everyone it will continue. The new name will be "All I Need Is You" which goes along nicely with the whole focus of "need" in this chapter. It will pick up right where this left off. I know this was long but I thought it was worth it. I had a lot of fun writing this and I hope everyone enjoys reading it. >>>>
