Disclaimer: This is my own personal work of fiction. The celebrity's (The members of 98 degrees & Jessica Simpson) used are in no way the way I make them out to be. I am in no way trying to say anything about there sexuality. This story is for PURE ENTERTAINMENT ONLY.
Note From Author: I know that Nick and Jess are still married and I wish them the best of luck. Drew is married to and I wish him the same. I wish all the other members a good luck too!
Also: In the first story I forgot to say the name of the record label. Is Columbia. The record label that Nick Lachey is currently with. And the main character (Jason) does not own it. He just works for it.
Were we left off....
Somewhere thought the day I heard someone mention a club called "KaOs". I decided to check it out. I don't know if I've mentioned it but I'm bi. I prefer guys and I honestly think that I might be gay. But I try to give myself the benefit of the doubt. I pulled up to the club and handed a valet my car keys. He drove off as I went in. I went straight to the bar and ordered a Sky. I walked away and scoped out the crowd. From what I could see it was mostly girls. I set my drink down and headed to the restroom to 'release'. As I walked up to the urinal I unzipped my pants and started my business I finished up and headed over to the sink. All over a sudden I noticed the person next to me washing there hands as he started to talk.
"Hey.. whats up man?"
--------------------- Shut Up - Scene 2 ---------------------
I looked over to my left to see Jeff Timmons washing his hands.
I replied, "Hey.. not much not much. I didn't realize that you guys went to places like this or I might have invited you along"
"Ya.. we don't all that often for fear of fans, but we do once in awhile. We can usually get a back corner somewhere reserved for us to use. You here alone?"
A little embarrassed I replied "Unfortunately.. I thought that I might meet someone but this club is just not the place tonight"
"Well, we are about to head out. If you aren't doing anything tonight why don't you tag along?"
"I dunno.. I don't like to intrude on anything"
"It wouldn't be a problem. Justin just left to go back to the hotel. He wasn't feeling well... Drew's not an all nighther type of person so he'll probably be crashing soon too. Nick and I could use the company"
I agreed and the two of us walked out of the restroom. He led to a small room off to the side of the big stage. We went up a small flight of stairs to a backroom. There was another party going on up here.. minues the hundreds of people. I spotted Nick and Drew sitting at a table off to the side. Nick noticed us first and motioned for drew to turn around. He did and nick flashed his 'million-dollar' smile that could make anybody fall for him.
Drew was the first to greet us "Hey.. we wondering what was taking so long. We see you found a stray" I laughed as he stuck out his hand. Jeff stood up for me though.
"Naw.. I just happened to spot him in the restroom washing his hands like I was. He said he was here alone so I told him that he could come join us"
"That's cool.. we can always use the company, although it is weird having drinks with your boss" Nick said
"Naw.. its nothing like that. I'm not your boss"
"It's your choice to make or brake us" Said Drew
"Ya... but you guys have already been made. I just hope to rely on that to get me to where you need to be. So.. where are we headed to"
"I am headed to home" Drew replied with a yawn.
"Bro, I'm honestly surprised that you've made it this late. It's WAY past your bedtime" Nick of course had to use his fatherly tone.
Drew said his goodbyes and we shook hands one more time. As he left Jeff immediately took over. "I was thinking that we hit CLUB ICE and then make our way back home"
Nick was grabbing his coat as he replied "Sounds like a plan to me. Drew.. I shall see you later"
Drew left after he shook hands with me and hugged Nick.
Nick was wearing some black leather pants and a brown and tan Flannel shirt. He had on a hat that had both leather and patterns from the shirt. They all matched well together.
Jeff had on a black see through shirt with white pants. He stood out from all of us.
We left the building and stepped outside. On the way out we had decided that we would just take my vehicle and I could then drop the guys off. I had a 2004 Mercedes SUV. It was fairly new. The company had bought if for me as it sported the company's logo on the windows and rims. We hopped in. Me driveling. Jeff up front and Nick in the passenger side of the back seat. We sped off to the club. As we entered the whole place was filled with a light smoke and temperature was turned down. Britney Spears - Toxic filled the club. There were men in just pants with no shirt and men fully clothed. Same with women although they usually had a bikini top on. Nick smiled as he put his arm on my shoulder and Jeff's.
"Boys.. I think its time to Par-Tay!" Nick quickly talked to what seemed to be someone of high power in the club. Nick motioned for us to follow. We ended up BEHIND the stage this time. The room we entered seemed to be much bigger than the last and full of even more people. The temperature was again down with the same music. We followed Nick over to a small table to the side and we all sat down.
Jeff "What'll it be... Jason??"
I replied. "Ahh.. how about just a regular beer for this evening. And ya.. Jason's right"
Nick piped up "I'll have the same" Nick looked over at me and winked as he looked to the crowd. It wasn't long before our drinks came.
Jeff took a drink and then looked over to me "So, what is a well dressed guy like you looking for in a bar like this??"
The comment made me smile "I think that I should be asking you the same thing..." Jeff and Nick both laughed at the comment "I dunno.. its just something to do on an evening. My jobs not hard it can just be tiresome. I'm also on a little bit of a break. You guys are my last people before I am officially on break. I guess I'm just like anybody else. Looking for a friend"
"Jeff over here isn't looking for a friend.. he's looking for a hot piece of Ass!!" Nick laughed as Drew kicked him from underneath the table.
"Don't listen to Nick.. we come here for the same reason. Its nice to be famous, but its also nice to have some time to yourself if you know what I mean"
"I feel you on that one. But, wouldn't you guys rather spend your alone time with your families."
I could tell that Nick didn't like that question because he took and drink. Gave a partial smile and then got up and walked out into the crowd. Dancing.
"Did I say something wrong?"
"Naw, don't mind Nick. He's just going through some rough times right now. That's why we decided to go on this little road trip. We thought it would cheer him up"
"I'm sorry if I just messed that up.. I mean I wasn't trying to imply anything about you know.. him and jess"
"Don't worry about it bro. He's just a little worked up. I guess before Jessica headed out onto tour she and nick go into it about god knows what. The only weird thing about all of this is that they don't really seem like they are fighting"
"What do you mean??" I asked
"Well, its nothing really. It is just that we have seen them at eachothers throats before.. and now he just seems calm about things. He's been zoning out like he really doesn't want be here either. I think you coming along was actually a good idea."
"Not till now anyway...."
Just then Nick came back over. He looked a bit sweaty as he looked at the both of us and started talking.
"You don't have to stop talking just because I'm here.. go on"
My face kinda got read as I looked over at Jeff...
"We were just checking out that hot little number over there in the corner Nick..." Jeff replied.
Nick just kinda looked over and laughed it off. I didn't think about it at the time and neither did Jeff.... but thinks were all falling into place.
We all went out on the dance floor and ended up going our own ways. Nick and Jeff both danced with almost everybody. Guys or Girls they were just having a good time. I had my share of both too. After about an hour of that we all got back to the table and decided that it was time to go. We walked out and made it to my car. We hopped in except this time Nick took the front. The car ride home was pretty silent beside a few words here and there. I asked them were they were headed...
"So, where are you guys staying?"
"What do you mean?" replied Jeff
"I said that I would take you back to the hotel didn't I. I kinda need to know where its at to get there" I laughed.
"We are staying at the Mariot. That's were you told us to meet you so we figured we'd just stay there while we where here. We figured you knew" Said Nick
"No.. hey though. That's right on the way. I booked a room. well the label booked me a room at the same place."
Jeff tuned in "That's awesome, when are you leaving to go back to wherever your spending vacation at next?"
"The day after tomorrow. I thought about staying a few extra days, but the company only wants to pick up the tab for the two days. It kinda sucks.. but what can ya do??"
"True..True.." Jeff
We pulled up to the hotel. We excited and I handed the valet my keys. The one good thing about having a car from the label was that they always kept it cleaned and valet! We walked in. There was a lot of people so we just kind of talked on our way to the elevators witch were inconveniently located on the other side of the building.
"So.. I'm assuming you guys are leaving tomorrow"
Nick spoke "Naw.. we are here for 2 weeks."
"Aren't you following Jessica's tour?"
"Jess and I talked today. I told her that I wanted to just spend some time with Jeff here.. and we were going to missed a few of the performances to stay here and hang for awhile."
Jeff suddenly got an idea "Hey.. you should hang out with us tomorrow before you leave. The only plans we have is to hit the Gym... they have nice facilities here" Just then Jeff's cell phone rang. He picked it up.. talked and then signaled that he would be right back. Nick and I took a seat.
"Do you work out?" Said Nick
"Yes actually. I started a routine to put my body into shape a few years ago. It just recently ended but I have tried to stay in the gym to keep myself fit. I have to sit in an office all day and I don't want all of my hard earned money going down the drain if you know what I mean"
"I know exactly what you mean. its hard to find good facilities when you are on the road. You should come with us tomorrow..." Nick said that with a smile
"Go where?"
"To the Gym.. we all basically do our own thing but you could always hang out with me. I try to do a heavy routine and then relax. I mean.. I don't want to push you or anything"
"No, no, no. I think that's a good idea. What time are you going?"
"Probably at around 10 am because we usually pick up lunch when we get done."
"I'd love to go then"
Just then Nick smiled at me as Jeff walked over.
"Sorry about that guys... I thought it was someone important"
"No problem.. Jason and I have just decided that he would come to the Gym with us tomorrow"
"O really! That's great.. so I guess we'll be seeing you tomorrow morning then?"
"Bright and Early.. What room you guys in?"
"Top Floor.. room 263" Nick said.
"Well that's Nick's room. The label always gives him and drew a room. And then me and Justin. The rest of us are in 216"
I knew that they had probably given Nick his own room so that he could clear out his head.
"Alright.. I'll see you bright and early"
The guys walked off. I didn't want to seem like a pervert but I was excited to see all the guys working out. I hadn't mentioned that I was gay/bi but I didn't think it mattered all that much. I went to my room and showered.. getting ready to wake up early the next morning.
I hope that you guys enjoyed the second scene. I'm trying to build things up here. I don't want to jump right into the good stuff if you know what I mean...well, thanks for reading. If you like the story or have any comments / suggestions please e-mail me at StorySendSU@Yahoo.com ;Alex
